Chapter 17: After the Rain (Part 2)

  The white light has disappeared, and Wan Shi Tong has appeared in front of Feng Shui.

  Although the face is still the same, Wind Sough has seen all sorts of sinister, despicable, and contemptible things on that face, everything that is opposite to being bright and upright. At the same time, the overall image of Mr. Know-it-all has made Wind Sough certain that he is a sly and cunning person with a rat-like head and mouse-like eyes.

  The wind came quietly and asked in front of Wan Shi Tong: "Sir, what would you like to order?"

  Wan Shitou pulled the wind whistling past and said, "Young man, yesterday I was drinking tea with another person here. Later, I left first. What about that person? He should not have had money to pay the bill. How did it end up?"

  "Oh, I remember what you said about that person, he was taken away by the government because he couldn't pay his debts." Feng Xiao's facial muscles twitched several times.

  "Is he there? I'm looking at him now!" Wan Shitong muttered to himself as he sent a message to Feng Xiao Xiao.

  The wind was blowing gently as the tea water was being served, and just as I was about to put the board on top of the Wanjitong's head, the system suddenly prompted that there was a new message. So I looked at the message first, Wanjitong: Where are you? Yesterday I forgot to pay and got off, and then I was busy and didn't have time to come up, are you okay? I heard you were taken away by the government.

  The wind was blowing, and his heart felt a warmth. This little guy, it seemed, wasn't being intentional after all. It was hard on him to still be worried about me. He replied with a message: "Nothing's wrong, I've just been assigned by the government office to work at the tea house for 4 hours, and now I'm right in front of you."

  The all-around handyman on the other side suddenly jumped up from the stool, raised his head and looked at the young shopkeeper in front of him. Feng Xiao Xiao smiled, "Don't stare, it's me, can't recognize me anymore?"

  "Dizzy, why didn't you say so earlier? What's with the pretentious act?"

  The wind was blowing and it wasn't easy to say out loud his plan for revenge earlier, so he just said: "Tease you, give you a surprise."

  "Cut, how many hours have I worked for 4 hours? Can I find the boss and pay the money?"

  "There's only one hour left, no need, besides it won't work anyway."

  Wan Shi Tong hummed in response and pulled the wind closer, speaking in a low voice: "Just now someone challenged Yi Jian Chong Tian and was defeated by him, did you know?"

  "Oh no, what's with the mysterious act? Everyone sitting here has seen One Sword To The Sky get defeated!"

  "Ah, no way! How could this be?!"

  "Because..." The wind whistled and drew out the tone, admiring the anxious look of Hui Wan Shi Tong, "The street outside this teahouse is where they will have their duel!"

  "You saw it too!"

  "Of course!"

  "I heard that the one who defeated One Sword to the Sky was a person in green clothes with a masked face, using an invisible sword drawn from an umbrella. When he made his move, even heaven and earth changed color, bringing down this heavy rain, is that right?"

  The wind was blowing strongly, and Zhang opened his mouth wide, but after a long while, he finally said, "Who told you all this?"

  "Is it like this in the website forum?"

  "This is who wrote it, and it's too exaggerated. The person is in green clothes, but they didn't wear a mask at all, the sword wasn't pulled out from an umbrella, nor was it invisible, it's just relatively thin. What heavenly heavy rain, that's even more nonsense, when he arrived on this street, the rain had already started falling."

  "Huh, so there's nothing special about it after all?"

  "There he is. How could he not be? The man in green clothes moved extremely fast, his attack was extremely high. He defeated Yi Jian Chong Tian with just one move, and Yi Jian Chong Tian had only just placed his hand on the hilt of his sword."

  "Aren't you and One Sword to the Sky friends? Why do you seem so excited that he was defeated?" said Wanshitong, eyeing Wind Soughsough sideways with flying spittle, filled with suspicion about Wind Soughsough's previous words.

  "There is none, I just truly present the scene at that time in front of you now. If it's exciting, it's also the excitement of the scene at that time!"

  "So you're saying that a quick and ruthless sword is the key? That post on the forum was written by someone who really doesn't know what they're talking about!"

  "What else did he say on the forum?"

  "Most of you are guessing the origin of the person in green clothes! Do any of you present know?"

  "I don't know, all I know is that his sword is called 'Hurricane Sword'!"

  "Ji Yu Jian, Ji Yu Jian..." Wan Shi Tong muttered to himself for a few moments, seemingly deep in thought. Then he said, "Alright, I just came up to see if you're doing okay. Since everything is fine, I'll head back down now. You come over tonight and we'll meet again!"

  With that said, a white light flashed, and Wan Shi Tong went online without moving an inch, only to disappear from the spot again.

  The wind whispers, are you here to gather information or to see me? Looking at the place where Wan Shi Tong disappeared, he suddenly shouted: "You little scoundrel, you had tea and didn't pay for it before running away!" Then he thought again, he seemed not to have had any tea, this account won't be counted on my head, right? Seeing no one noticing, he hurriedly poured the spilled tea water back into the teapot.

  Just as the last hour was being spent in the tea house, the official forum was almost flooded. Everyone was discussing the upcoming martial arts competition this afternoon.

  "Who is the man in green?", "How can he have such fast swordplay and such high attack power at the same time?", "What kind of martial arts is the man in green using?", "Is there anything special about the Rain Sword?" These questions were the focus of everyone's discussion.

  Some people also contacted the official to unravel these mysteries, and the official's response was undoubtedly: This belongs to the player's privacy, we will not provide clues. The only thing that the official came forward to confirm is that this player fully complies with the system settings and did not use bugs or plug-ins.

  Among them, there were not a few people who praised Yi Jian Zhong Tian, thinking that he had calmly admitted defeat after realizing he was no match, and later in the tea house, he did not hang his head in shame like ordinary people would, thinking that he did not lose the demeanor of a master.

  Some people also think that Yi Jian Chong Tian lost because he didn't understand his opponent well enough, and didn't expect such a fast move, otherwise if he had been prepared, he might not have lost.

  Some people think that the blue-clothed man taking the initiative was the key to determining the outcome of this duel. He fully utilized his high-speed and high-attack advantages, not giving his opponent a chance to counterattack. If it were Sword Charging Heaven who took the initiative first, with the blue-clothed man's high attack speed, he wouldn't have had high life, and would have been instantly killed in one hit.

  In the end, most people still stand on the side of Yi Jian Chong Tian. After all, the mysterious appearance, mysterious strike and mysterious disappearance of the man in green give people a feeling that is not quite upright and just, making everyone feel that he fits perfectly into the role of an anti-hero.

  There are also many people who highly praise the green shirt man, mostly young people and female players. They generally think that the behavior of the green shirt man is cool and has personality. Some even feel romantic about it, to the point where they use Xu Zhimo's "I walked away lightly, just as you came lightly" to describe it.

  There are also players worried that Qing Yi Ren will stir up a bloody storm in Jianghu from now on, after all, with his current strength, those who can withstand his one hit in Jianghu can be counted on one hand.

  There are different opinions.

  But everyone can feel that for half a month since the public test, what has been a calm and peaceful world has finally been stirred up by this one person.

  A world of rivers and lakes with killings, struggles, and disputes, a world where people fight for power and profit, and engage in intrigue and deception. This extraordinary world is what most players seek when they come to the game. People living in peaceful times mostly believe that "heroes emerge in chaotic times". The world of rivers and lakes seems to be opening a curtain of repeated struggles and open and secret battles by one person, whether it's good fortune or bad luck, nobody can know now.
