King of Assassins
Chapter 85 - 84 Apology

Chapter 85: Chapter 84 Apology

A crisp "zheng" sound of the sword cry, the blood glow on the Godslaying Sword gathered, once again transforming into a bright and clear sword blade.

Gao Xuan was also delighted in his heart, success.

At this point, the Godslaying Sword advanced to the Bronze Tier. Its power greatly increased.

The specific manifestation is that the Godslaying Sword became sharper. Cutting through ordinary exoskeleton armor is as easy as slicing through a melon.

More importantly, it has a strong restraining effect on Bronze Level power. Marvels like the Shadow Servant can hardly function under the Godslaying Sword.

Gao Xuan gracefully spun the sword and sheathed the Godslaying Sword.

A bit regretful, there were no spectators. No one could witness the unparalleled elegance of the Divine Sword.

"A divine marvel hides its light."

Gao Xuan sighed and said, "Let’s keep a low profile."

The Godslaying Sword was bound to the Blood Shadow, he could no longer publicly use the Godslaying Sword.

Gao Xuan felt just right, so he took out ten Purple Dragon Pearls.

He slowly opened his eyes, and the pure golden vertical-pupil dragon eyes caused the surrounding Source Power to solidify into a mass.

As a Golden Marvel, the Celestial Dragon Eye’s power is not inferior to the Godslaying Sword. In some aspects, it even surpasses the Godslaying Sword by a bit.

Gao Xuan wasn’t keeping his eyes closed as a show-off, but because the Celestial Dragon Eye was too attention-grabbing.

Anyone seeing these eyes would know he was unusual.

Under the gaze of the Celestial Dragon Eye, the ten Purple Dragon Pearls turned into ten purple lights, entering the Celestial Dragon Eye.

The pure golden dragon eyes were also tinged with shades of deep purple.

In the reddish-golden vertical-pupil, endless electric light flickered, and the deep purple on the eyes continuously dissipated.

After about an hour, the purple on the pure golden eyes had completely faded.

The strands of electric light within the reddish-golden vertical-pupil gradually dispersed.

Thus, the Celestial Dragon Eye was upgraded to the Bronze Level.

Gao Xuan reopened the data panel and found that his constitution had increased by one point, reaching 22 points. Power has increased by one point, reaching 19 points.

After the Celestial Dragon Eye was upgraded, the enhancement to his body also increased.

The Celestial Dragon Eye is a heritage of the Celestial Dragon People, as its power continues to increase, it can comprehensively enhance the host’s power.

Normally, Gao Xuan’s Spiritual Power should also benefit from the Celestial Dragon Eye’s boost.

It’s just that Gao Xuan already has the Six-winged Celestial Cicada, and his Spiritual Power is too overwhelming. The Celestial Dragon Eye’s enhancement is thus overshadowed.

The current state of Gao Xuan’s body has reached the limit of Level 10. The agility level has reached the High Silver Tier. The Spiritual Power has even reached the Golden Level.

After a comprehensive upgrade, Gao Xuan’s confidence vastly increased.

Now, if he were to have a duel with Luojia, it should be evenly matched.

Unfortunately, Luojia would not be willing to duel him. Luojia always has a group of experts with her.

This woman is cautious, cunning, insidious, and ruthless. She is a first-rate fierce person.

Compared with Luojia, An Shirong is just an arrogant and foolish merchant.

Luojia was known in later generations as the Eternal Night Empress. Putting aside positions, just in terms of vision, wisdom, and scale, Luojia is truly a top-tier hero of this era.

Gao Xuan introspected, realizing that in these aspects, he was far less than Luojia.

At that time, several of them teamed up to assassinate Luojia, but were utterly routed by Luojia. Only he managed to escape by luck.

In that battle, the Six-winged Celestial Cicada kept crying sharply, constantly warning him to flee immediately.

Gao Xuan couldn’t forget the frustration of being defeated by Luojia, nor the humiliation of fleeing disgracefully.

Upon rebirth, he could handle everything calmly. Only Luojia remained his heart demon.

Now the only advantage is that he has an advantage in information. Luojia still does not have the unparalleled power she will have in future generations. This gives him a fighting chance.

Thinking of Luojia, Gao Xuan’s mind filled with pride drained away.

Yun Qingshang pushed open the door and saw Gao Xuan sitting cross-legged on the ground, the Godslaying Sword lying horizontally on his lap, his pure golden eyes slightly narrowed, exuding a deep and cold aura.

Gao Xuan’s expression was calm, without any killing intent.

However, in this state, Gao Xuan seemed like a divine being who ruled fate, high above yet devoid of any emotion. Yun Qingshang felt Gao Xuan was exceptionally unfamiliar, and she instinctively felt a deep fear.

Gao Xuan sensed Yun Qingshang entering, he closed his eyes, sheathed the Godslaying Sword, and calmed his turbulent feelings.

He smiled at Yun Qingshang: "What’s up?"

Yun Qingshang didn’t speak, she silently walked over and hugged Gao Xuan tightly.

Gao Xuan was momentarily stunned before gently embracing Yun Qingshang: "You’re so passionate, I’m a bit unaccustomed to it."

"No matter what you do, I’ll be with you."

Yun Qingshang’s voice was gentle, yet had an unwavering firmness.

Gao Xuan touched Yun Qingshang’s smooth forehead, "Good brother, you’re still the best."

He smiled and said, "You’re making this so formal that it’s hard to joke around."

Gao Xuan cupped Yun Qingshang’s cheeks, "What a beautiful girl, you should smile more. Don’t be so serious."

Yun Qingshang was a bit unaccustomed to this intimate mode of interaction. She slowly stood up and said, "Jiang Xuejun is bringing people over."

"She’s quite busy."

Gao Xuan stood up, closed his eyes, put away the Godslaying Sword, and led Yun Qingshang to the living room on the first floor.

Jiang Xuejun, accompanied by a few young people, was standing in the living room waiting.

Seeing Gao Xuan come out, Jiang Xuejun hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Gao Xuan, these are Zhang Fang and..."

"I’ve seen them."

Gao Xuan interrupted Jiang Xuejun. These young people were the ones who had come with An Hu causing trouble the other day. Only the tattooed face Xu Feng was absent.

The young people looked very awkward. They were probably agreed, as Zhang Fang approached Gao Xuan and said, "We’re sorry, we were wrong that day. We’ve come to apologize to you this time. We hope you’ll forgive us."

As he spoke, they all bowed to Gao Xuan.

Jiang Xuejun added from the side, "Gao Xuan, they were also misled by An Hu, young and ignorant. Don’t hold it against them."

She paused and added, "They are very sincere."

Zhang Fang and the others nodded repeatedly. They were also under pressure from their families to come and apologize to Gao Xuan.

Even if they didn’t think much of it internally, they had to put on a show outwardly.

Moreover, after getting beaten by Gao Xuan, they had a bit of respect for him.

Zhang Fang said, "To express our apology, we’ve brought a few small gifts, hoping you won’t mind."

Jiang Xuejun introduced from the side, "A top-end Flying Leopard four-seater sports car, ten kilograms of Ten Thousand Forged Titanium Steel, Celestial Wolf Series 4 Protective Waistband..."

She added in a whisper in Gao Xuan’s ear, "Each worth more than three million."

Gao Xuan smiled as he heard the prices, "Since it was a misunderstanding, let’s not bring up the past."

Zhang Fang and the others breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly thanked Gao Xuan again.

Not being adept at groveling exchanges, they left after saying a few words.

After they left, Jiang Xuejun reminded Gao Xuan, "Don’t be too pleased. They’re doing this for Aunt Yue’s sake. You need to understand this."

Wei Yue is currently at her peak, in full momentum.

Upon hearing about Gao Xuan’s incident, the other families felt they shouldn’t be too casual. So they made a formal apology and offered expensive gifts.

This was done to express goodwill towards Wei Yue. Actually, it had nothing to do with Gao Xuan.

Gao Xuan didn’t mind either, as the benefits were real. After beating those young men, they apologized in return. There was no need for him to hold a grudge.

The Flying Leopard Sports Car was parked in the front yard, its black body sleek like a leaping leopard, with smooth lines full of tension. Very eye-catching.

Gao Xuan wasn’t particularly interested in luxury cars or other luxury goods, but having a cool sports car felt nice.

"Nuclear battery-powered, capable of hovering and flying when needed, capable of flying about a thousand kilometers."

Jiang Xuejun said, "The car has already been transferred to your name, but you need a flight permit to fly in urban areas. Violating traffic regulations will lead to hefty fines, be cautious..."

Jiang Xuejun was worried Gao Xuan might be reckless and fly casually in urban areas, where a single fine could bankrupt him.

Jiang Xuejun reminded Gao Xuan again, "The maintenance costs are also very high. Be careful not to get any dings."

She knew well about Gao Xuan’s financial situation, the guy was still living in someone else’s house, and wasn’t really suited to drive such a luxury car.

"You talk too much."

Gao Xuan said, "I’ll sell the Celestial Wolf Protective Waistband to you. Or you can sell it for me."

He was short on money right now. The luxury car was nice and could serve as transportation. The ten kilograms of Titanium Steel were top-grade modern industrial materials, perfect for casting a sword.

The Celestial Wolf Protective Waistband was of no use. Such a functional protective belt, capable of being waterproof, fireproof, bulletproof, poison proof, and even short-term flying, had various functions.

But for experts, this belt was almost meaningless.

Gao Xuan and Yun Qingshang wouldn’t need it. It would be better to sell it for money. Having millions in hand, enjoying good food and drinks would be much more enjoyable.

"It can only be sold at eighty percent of the price." Jiang Xuejun said.

Gao Xuan waved his hand generously, "No problem."

He thought for a moment and asked, "Do you know any good swordsmiths?"

Gao Xuan tapped the dark Titanium Steel on the table, "I want to cast an unparalleled divine sword."
