Supreme Emperor of Swords

Chapter 888 - The Nalan Family



Chapter 888 The Nalan Family

“It’s right not to make trouble, but if someone bullies you, you can’t just bear it. I don’t bring everyone here to be bullied. If some people are blind and think that they could walk all over us and insist on bullying us, you don’t have to be polite with them,” Ding Hao said lightly.

The physical cultivators all acclaimed it.

Such a domineering Celestial Master was the person they supported and loved. Even if they walked out of the Ocean Forest, they weren’t afraid at all.

“Hey, I’m hungry…” Nalan Youxia in a white robe came out of the carriage with a smile.

Ding Hao smiled and said, “You can eat if you are hungry. Tell them to buy some pots to make food. Everyone can have a rest early after eating food. We will set off tomorrow at dawn.”

The physical cultivators suddenly became lively.

The bonfire was lit, and the strange beasts that they brought from the forest were dissected and roasted skillfully. The charming fragrance spread out on the bank of the Heaven River and attracted the gazes of other people.

Ding Hao, Nalan Chu and Nalan Youxia were also sitting in the crowd.

Nalan Chu was still timid like a deer. Having been learning from Ding Hao these days, she could be regarded as Ding Hao’s half disciple. With a good aptitude and being transformed by Ding Hao with divine elixirs, she made progress by leaps and bounds. However, she was a native of the Land of Divine Grace, so her cultivation speed could not keep up with those “smugglers” of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, and she just reached the peak of the Great Martial Mentor.

The little girl sat quietly beside Ding Hao. Like a little maidservant, she cut up the barbecued meat, put them on the plate, smeared honey, mixed them and then obediently put the plate on the wooden table in front of Ding Hao.

Ding Hao did not refuse but used a wooden skewer to eat the meat.

Because of Ding Hao, the physical cultivators respected Nalan Chu very much. Those big guys believed that Nalan Chu was Ding Hao’s disciple, which meant she was the descendant of the Celestial Master. In addition to the Celestial Princess Ding Tian Shuang and Ren Woxing, Nalan Chu was now another person with a special status in the whole tribe.

While Nalan Youxia was holding a roasted beast leg that was more than half of his size and was wolfing it down happily, which made his whole body greasy.

This silly boy liked meat the most, and his appetite was also amazing, which could be compared to that of Evil Moon.

At this time, Evil Moon was squatting next to Nalan Youxia, puffing her cheeks and biting the other beast leg which was four or five times larger than its body. She was competing with the silly boy to see who ate faster. After being restricted from gulping food, she was finally going to lose to him.

Some meddlesome physical cultivators cheered loudly.

“Meow. You can’t lose to a fool…” Evil Moon nearly freaked out. It was reasonable that she couldn’t eat as fast as Blackie who had three heads and three mouths. But if she lost to a fool who only smiled every day, it would be a shame in her cat life.

Right at this moment…

“Who is it? Stop!” A guard’s shout came from the gate of the camp.

“Elder brother, please don’t misunderstand. We mean no harm. Our young master thinks that your barbecue smells so tasty, so he is willing to buy some at a high price. Please report to your leader.” A voice came.

Ding Hao looked up.

Four or five strong men in white robes at the gate of the camp came into his sight. Although they were far away, what they said could be clearly heard by Ding Hao.

“My lord doesn’t lack money. Please leave.” This physical cultivator refused without the slightest hesitation.

“Are you kidding me? There aren’t any rare treasures that our Celestial Master doesn’t have. Why would he care about your money? Besides, the ingredients of the barbecue are the most tender parts of the body of the Surviving Species of the Untainted Land in the Ocean Forest. Dozens of physical cultivators in the Sage Realm spent a lot of time preparing them for our Celestial Master. His Honor loves his subordinates, so he shares the meat with us. How can the meat be valued by gold or silver?”

“Don’t… don’t be so sure. Our young master is…” The leading white-robed warrior didn’t expect to be rejected, so he was a little angry.

The physical cultivator turned indifferent. Just as he was about to say something, a voice suddenly came to his ears. He was stunned and took a step to the side and said, “My lord invites you to go in. Be careful when you speak.”

The white-robed warriors suddenly became complacent and strode into the camp.

The leading white-robed warrior was about 30 or 40 years old with a quite proud expression. He came to Ding Hao and others, saying casually, “My fellow, my young master wants to buy some roasted food here. You give me a price!”

“Bastard!” Shan Xiong was furious and rose to his feet, “How dare you to call my lord ‘my fellow’?”

The other physical cultivators also stood up angrily.

Ding Hao gently waved his hand and said, “Give some meat to them.”

Shan Xiong was stunned. Although he didn’t know what was going on, he still obeyed Ding Hao’s order and took out two huge and clean beast legs that had been skinned from his Storage Ring and handed them over.

Unexpectedly, the white-robed warrior did not take them. Instead, after glancing at the table in front of Ding Hao, he pointed to the meat slices on the plate in front of Ding Hao and said, “We want the roasted meat.”

When his gaze fell upon Chu, the white-robed warrior paused for a moment. A trace of surprise flashed across the depths of his eyes, but he hid it well.

Ding Hao smiled and said firmly, “You’re from the Nalan family, aren’t you?”

“You sure know what’s what.” The white-robed warrior nodded proudly and said, “I am one of the captains of the Nalan family’s family guards, Duanmu Lei. I believe you have heard of my other name-the Bloodless Sword.”

The Bloodless Sword Duanmu Lei was also a well-known master of swordsmanship. As one of the captains of the Nalan family’s family guards, he must have some unique skills. Duanmu Lei was famous for his fast sword and was an expert at swordsmanship.

Ding Hao shook his head slightly and said, “I have never heard of it.”

Duanmu Lei’s smile froze and then anger appeared on his face.

However, Ding Hao continued to ask, “I heard that the head of the Nalan family is the strongest master in the Nalan Family—Nalan Xingde, who is also known as Heavenly Wrath Sword. Since you are the captain of the family guards, does that mean that Nalan Xingde is also here today?”

“You are presumptuous!” Duanmu Lei and the other warriors in white robes shouted. Duanmu Lei sneered, “Who do you think you are to directly address the head of the Nalan family?”

“You are the presumptuous one. Is the Nalan Family so great? My lord addressing his name directly redounded to his credit.” Shan Xiong and the others glared at Duanmu Lei furiously as well.

Ding Hao gently waved his hand, warning the physical cultivators to calm down and saying, “If Nalan Xingde is also here, please pass a message to him for me. Please ask him if he still remembers the herb girl from the Heavenly Wasteland Tribe in Ocean Forest.”

As soon as Ding Hao said that, Duanmu Lei’s face suddenly changed. He looked at Ding Hao and asked in shock, “Who… who the hell are you?”

However, Ding Hao waved his hand and did not want to say anything more.

“Guys, please.” Shan Xiong walked over step by step with the blood Qi in his body bursting out and surging like a vast ocean. It looked as if an ancient mountain was rolling over. He made a gesture to unceremoniously ask Duanmu Lei and the others to leave.

Duanmu Lei’s expression changed. Only now did he realize how formidable Shan Xiong was.

He gritted his teeth and said, “I don’t care who you are. Let me give you a word of advice that you had better not make my Nalan family an enemy. The Nalan family, with its current power and foundation, is not something that small power like you can afford to offend. Even the God’s Palace has to respect our Nalan family.”

Ding Hao did not speak but moved his fingers slightly.

Swoosh!

A silver light flashed.

Duanmu Lei’s body suddenly stiffened like being struck by lightning. He glanced at Ding Hao as if he had seen a ghost and then immediately turned around and left, not daring to say a word.

The other guards of the Nalan family quickly followed, but they didn’t know what had happened.

Only Duanmu Lei could see clearly that the bronze grimace mask man only moved his fingers slightly, but then thousands of sword lights burst out in an instant and a strand of hair in front of his forehead was turned into pieces. He had never heard of this kind of swordsmanship before, and it was so fast that it was beyond his imagination and cognition. In front of such a great swordsman, his name the Bloodless Sword, like a child’s name, was not worth mentioning at all.

“Who on earth are these people?” Duanmu Lei wondered.

They were definitely not a simple caravan.

“The strength of the man with the bronze grimace mask is intimidating. Why haven’t I heard of this master with such great swordsmanship before? Or does this person want to hide his real identity by wearing a mask?” Duanmu Lei thought.

Countless questions flashed through Duanmu Lei’s mind.

“Moreover, very few people know about the relationship between the head of the Nalan family and the herb girl from the Heavenly Wasteland Tribe. Besides, even if there are rumors outside, people only know the female barbarian is from the Ocean Forest. But this person told the exact name of the Heavenly Wasteland Tribe. It seems that he was interrogating them at that time. What did he mean?” Duanmu Lei thought.

Duanmu Lei did not dare to neglect his.

He glanced back at the camp surrounded by the carriages and quickly came to the camp of the Nalan family. After coming in, he went straight to a splendid white and blue tent in the middle of the camp and entered after reporting.

In the tent, eight enchanting dancers were trying their best to dance with their slim waists.

A handsome young man in a snow-white jade swordsman uniform, who was as white as jade and had a pair of eyes which were as bright as stars, sat quietly behind a white marble table and watched with interest, gently turning the crystal green thumb ring on his right thumb.

“Young Master…” Duanmu Lei kneeled down on one knee and recounted what had happened in detail to this young master.

A sneer appeared at the corner of the handsome young man’s mouth, but his star-like eyes flashed with strong malice, and he said disdainfully, “It’s been a long time since that happened. Some people are so reckless and want to make use of this matter to set off a storm. They really don’t know what is death.”

“Young Master, should we tell the head this?” Duanmu Lei asked tentatively.

The handsome young man shook his head, quietly considering something, and suddenly asked, “You just said that the subordinates of the man with the bronze grimace mask are all masters of physical cultivation, and they are probably from the Ocean Forest, right? And a girl who looks similar to my father follows the man with the bronze grimace mask?”

Duanmu Lei nodded and then said after thinking for a while, “Besides that young girl, there’s still a slightly maddened youth. His appearance is nearly the same as that of young family master…”

The handsome young man waved his hand with a cold expression.

The eight dancers quickly bowed and left.
