242: Chapter 226 The Death of Kitahara Sousuke_2 242: Chapter 226 The Death of Kitahara Sousuke_2 Kitahara Sousuke had never expected that Lu Chuan would easily snap the sword right out of his hands, which, for him, a master of the sword, was an utter and disgraceful humiliation!

Smiling, Lu Chuan looked at Kitahara Sousuke and said, “I told you to use a real sword, but you just wouldn’t listen.”

Kitahara Sousuke, with his face full of rage, stared at Lu Chuan, then sucked in a breath and a Longsword from the weapon rack flew into his hands.

“Kid, I have underestimated you,” he yelled.

“You have successfully angered me.

In the fight to come, don’t blame me for bullying you!”

After saying this, he charged at Lu Chuan with his Longsword, a Sword Qi faintly appearing around his body.

“Mr.

Kitahara is getting serious now; that’s more like it!” someone exclaimed.

Lu Chuan didn’t dare to slack off, raised his sword, and engaged with Kitahara Sousuke.

He hadn’t studied swordsmanship much and this was his first time fighting with a sword.

But as the saying goes, all laws are interconnected; once you master one Martial Path, you can grasp others by analogy.

The only difference is some weapons feel more natural to use than others.

Besides, what Lu Chuan learned was the Path of Cultivation; his inherited memories contained tens of thousands of sword manuals, any of which were more powerful than the swordsmanship studied in the Martial Arts of his time.

Just now, he had quickly perused one of them and had gained a general understanding of swordsmanship.

As the two exchanged blows, swords flickered and danced, terrifying the spectators into shrinking their necks, fearing that a stray Sword Qi might sweep them up—many even hid away, not daring to watch directly.

Facing Kitahara Sousuke, Lu Chuan was by no means at a disadvantage, trading blows evenly with him.

The people who had thought that Kitahara Sousuke, with a real sword in his hand, would certainly beat Lu Chuan into a pitiful state were now silent.

Zhong Ling’er and Kishimoto Haruko were relieved to see that Lu Chuan was holding his own against Kitahara Sousuke.

Then, without hesitation, they glanced at the surroundings, grabbed Kishimoto Naoki, and started to walk out.

Since everyone’s attention was on the battle between Lu Chuan and Kitahara Sousuke, no one noticed the three of them slipping away quietly.

At first, Lu Chuan struggled a bit against Kitahara Sousuke, who was, after all, a sword master renowned for many years and not just a show-off.

As the battle progressed, however, Lu Chuan observed Kitahara Sousuke’s techniques and, with the sword manuals of the Cultivation World, he began to develop an understanding of swordsmanship, becoming more coherent with his sword strikes.

Initially, when Kitahara Sousuke engaged with Lu Chuan, he thought his opponent was a mere novice in swordsmanship and was intent on defeating him quickly to uphold his reputation as the foremost martial artist of the Island Country.

But as the fight went on, he realized Lu Chuan’s techniques were becoming increasingly refined; towards the end, they were at the level of a master, even beginning to surpass his own, which immensely shocked him.

He suspected that Lu Chuan had been feigning incompetence from the start, that the young man was truly a sword master who was just pretending to be weak.

He simply couldn’t believe that someone could evolve from a swordsmanship novice to a master in the course of a single fight.

Because of this turn of events, he became even more desperate to defeat Lu Chuan quickly, resorting to his most guarded and powerful moves.

Seeing Kitahara Sousuke become flustered, Lu Chuan revealed a mocking smile on his face, and began to exert his full strength, no longer wanting to waste time.

Gaining insights in swordsmanship today was already a win for him.

Their Longswords whirled and shot through the air, and suddenly, in his rush, Kitahara Sousuke exposed a weakness.

Seizing the opportunity, Lu Chuan thrust his sword into the middle of Kitahara Sousuke’s chest.

The Longsword pierced through and emerged from Kitahara Sousuke’s back.

Lu Chuan released his Spiritual Power, sealed Kitahara Sousuke’s Inner Strength with his Longsword, and said coldly, “It seems you really don’t qualify for this position!”

After speaking, he walked over, grabbed Kitahara Sousuke by the collar, and swiftly ran towards the house with him in tow.

Everyone was caught in the shock of Kitahara Sousuke’s defeat and couldn’t snap out of it for a long time.

“Kitahara Sousuke…

he actually lost!”

“What’s that kid taking Kitahara Sousuke inside for?”

…

Lu Chuan, with Kitahara Sousuke in tow, arrived at the secluded courtyard and pushed open the door.

Kitahara Sousuke’s face was filled with terror as he shouted, “How do you know about this place!”

Lu Chuan smiled and said, “The dragon vein here, the Primal Chaos Qi, are all treasures of Cathay.

You think you can steal them and no one would find out?”

Kitahara Sousuke’s face turned pale, and he tried to mobilize his Inner Strength, only to find no response at all.

Trembling, he said, “You want to take these things, right?

They are sealed by a Formation, and only I know how to retrieve them.

If you listen to me, I will tell you how to break the seal…”

Lu Chuan laughed heartily and said, “Are you trying to trick me?

Breaking this Formation just needs your essence blood, doesn’t it?

Otherwise, why would I bring you here?”

Kitahara Sousuke’s complexion drastically changed, and he immediately tried to break free from Lu Chuan to escape this terrifying kid.

But it was a pity that, unable to use his Inner Strength, he was no more than a fish on the chopping board, completely at the mercy of Lu Chuan.

“Kitahara Sousuke, your Kitahara family persecuted others for your own glory and wealth, today I shall eliminate you, a scourge, and consider it a good deed!”

After speaking, Lu Chuan grabbed the sword that was on Kitahara Sousuke, drew it out swiftly, and instantly slit his throat.

Blood spurted out and splashed on the Formation in the room.

The barrier dissipated instantly.

Lu Chuan took out a jade bottle he had prepared in advance, twisted a magic formula, and exclaimed, “Collect!”

Subsequently, the Primal Chaos Qi entered the jade bottle.

Pocketing the jade bottle, Lu Chuan then absorbed the three dragon veins into his body.

Having already absorbed one dragon vein before, these three dragon veins entered Lu Chuan’s body without any resistance.

Then he walked to the north corner, picked up the ancient jade.

Though he was unaware of the origins of the ancient jade, given that it was used as a base together with the dragon vein for the Formation, it must be extraordinary.

Following the principle of not passing up on anything free, Lu Chuan naturally couldn’t miss it.

After all this, Lu Chuan picked up Kitahara Sousuke’s corpse, jumped to the roof, and followed the wall back to the previous courtyard.

Standing atop the high wall, he threw down the corpse of Kitahara Sousuke and shouted loudly, “Kitahara Sousuke is dead, the number one person of the Island Country’s Martial Path, nothing more!”

Having said this, he quickly turned around and left the place.

In front of the mansion, an off-road vehicle was already waiting.

Lu Chuan jumped down from the wall, directly got into the vehicle, and realized that the driver was none other than Zhong Ling’er.

Without hesitation, he immediately ordered, “Go now!”
