Chapter Twenty-Four: The Mysterious Youth

  Facing Kiwan's fierce attack, Ron's mind was not shaken at all. A bright silver battle aura lit up on the giant sword in his hand, and he fiercely met Kiwan's descending giant sword head-on.

  Bang!

  Rohn took a step back, and the stone-paved street beneath his feet immediately cracked open. Before Rohn could even adjust his breath, Kiwan's fierce attack came again.

  Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang...

  The sound of continuous pounding came, as Kiwan took the initiative and with the help of his golden fighting spirit, Ron had to busy himself defending and constantly retreating. Fortunately, Ron was experienced and remained calm in the face of danger, so he didn't get defeated by Kiwan's first wave of attack.

  Panting heavily, Ronen stared intently at Kiwan in front of him. Although he had already exhausted all his strength, under Kiwan's absolutely advantageous Golden Fighting Spirit, Ronen understood that his defeat was only a matter of time.

  "Linda, lend me your sword for a moment."

  Linda, who was watching the scene with a tense and anxious expression, couldn't help but pause slightly after hearing Hua Yun's words. She saw Hua Yun looking at her with a serious face, not seeming to be joking around. For some reason, Linda didn't muster up even half of the courage to refuse, and she put the slender sword in her hand into Hua Yun's hand.

  Hua Yun held a slender sword in his hand and walked towards the center of the arena.

  "Haha, you two aren't going to go together, are you?" Kiwan saw Huayun walking up and stopped his pursuit of Luen, coldly sneering twice before saying: "But trash is still trash, no matter how many come, it's useless."

  As for the strength of Hua Yun, the new guy in the Li Bing Mercenary Corps, Ji Wan had already understood it from Todd, who had fought with Hua Yun before, so he was still very confident.

  In Todd's eyes, Hua Yun was at most no stronger than a 4th rank Bronze Warrior. Otherwise, the slender sword in his hand wouldn't have been shattered by his own blow. If it weren't for the attack of 4th rank Water Mage Luna, Hua Yun would probably have died at his hands that day.

  However, what pained Todd was that after fighting with Hua Yun that day, his strength had dropped to the level of a first-class martial arts apprentice. The originally powerful fifth-class White Silver Battle Qi in his body couldn't be used at all, and even Hari, the priest of Kodo Town, couldn't see what was wrong with him. Therefore, Todd hated Hua Yun to the bone.

  Hua Yun looked at Ron who was panting heavily beside him and said, "Brother Ron, let me handle Kiwan instead."

  "Hua Yun, you..." Rong looked at Hua Yun beside him. Sometimes, Rong simply didn't know what attitude to use when treating Hua Yun.

  Hua Yun, who saved everyone in the Demon Realm Mountains, is his benefactor. Later, he also became friends with everyone and had helped Catherine at the Plant Master's shop. It was because of Hua Yun that Catherine, who obtained the high-quality Divine Gift Fruit, was able to increase her strength to such an extent.

  Especially Huayun's profession, until now, Leng Yun's mind is still full of doubts. If he said he was a plant master, then why did he perform extremely strongly in martial skills? And if he said he was a warrior, then even the fourth-level plant master, Saha, would be inferior to him in terms of understanding and knowledge of plants.

  The surrounding mercenaries saw Hua Yun wanting to fight with Kiwan, and they couldn't help but discuss it. The Crazy Wolf Mercenary Corps had a great reputation in Kodo Town, and Kiwan, who had upgraded to become a 6th-level Golden Warrior, was the number one mercenary in Kodo Town. And this little guy from the Sharp Blade Mercenary Corps actually wanted to duel with Kiwan - wasn't he clearly aware that Roen wasn't Kiwan's match and was coming up to die?

  Ignoring the gossip around her, Hua Yun smiled after seeing the worried look on Ron's face: "Don't worry, big brother Ron. I don't even put that Ji Wan in my eyes, and since it was my fault that day, I should be the one to resolve it."

  "Alright!" Seeing the determination on Huayun's face, Ron could only respond with a single word and retreat from the scene.

  Luo En naturally understood in his heart that he couldn't be a match for Ji Wan, the sixth-grade Golden Warrior. If he continued to fight, there would only be one outcome - defeat, and it would be a crushing one at that.

  While others didn't say anything after seeing Ron and Kiwan fight for half a day, the dignity of mercenaries is not to be underestimated, but it also depends on who they are up against. In the face of absolute strength, nothing else matters.

  There has never been a mercenary who would ask for dignity in front of someone stronger than himself. Even the most arrogant mercenaries wouldn't dare challenge nobles and sword saints. If they had that kind of free time, they might as well go kill themselves. No one would praise them as heroes; instead, they'd just curse them as idiots in their hearts.

  "Haha, Ron, you..."

  Just as Kewan was about to mock Luo En a few words, Hua Yun coldly smiled and said: "What's wrong, are you afraid when you see me?"

  Hua Yun, who dared to fight Todd, a 5th rank White Silver Warrior, when his Wuji Mysterious Skill was only at the first level, now that his Wuji Mysterious Skill has reached the third level, naturally doesn't have any fear in his heart when facing Jiwon.

  The slender sword in his hand trembled slightly, and the infinite mysterious skill within Huayun's body suddenly began to circulate. Countless water system magic powers were rapidly circulating within Huayun's body under the drive of the infinite mysterious skill.

  "Come on!" Hua Yun's slender sword pointed at Ji Wan, his face cold and stern.

  "Fine, since you're looking for death, I'll fulfill your wish!" With a loud roar, the golden aura in Ji Wan's body suddenly burst forth, carrying an unprecedented momentum, and charged fiercely towards Hua Yun.

  Just as everyone was gathered around watching the duel, there were still many people on the street who had received the news and were quickly walking towards the crowd. Among these people, a young man was particularly eye-catching.

  The young man was about twenty years old, with a fiery red long hair hanging behind his head, sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, a pair of deep blue pupils extremely bright, lips slightly pursed, looking handsome.

  It's not just his handsome appearance that's the problem, but especially the noble aura he exudes, which makes ordinary people walking beside him feel inferior.

  Behind the young man, two middle-aged men with cold and stern gazes followed closely, their powerful hands resting on their hips, each wearing a long sword at their waist, their footsteps quick and steady, exuding an extraordinary aura. Even an idiot could tell that these two were not ordinary people.
