Gate of Immortality

Chapter 43: Ancient Saber

Yang Shi looked around the warehouse with interest. There was a pile of some strange treasures there.

" Eh? Is that a saber?" Yang Shi picked up a saber with an old scabbard. The hilt was in black obsidian color. A gem was embedded where the blade and the hilt met. The gem was faded red, Like once it was filled with blood, but someone sucked it away.

Yang Shi picked up the saber. Suddenly, his eye turned crimson. Yang Shi felt that the Red Lily was getting excited. He looked at the saber. He suddenly got an illusion that he was standing amidst an ancient battlefield.

With saber in his hands, He was charging through the enemy troops. The saber was like a fierce tiger, who dived among the pack of sheep. The saber cleaved, Blood splashed and head tumbled down. Yang Shi could feel that his blood lust and battle spirit are surging.

*Haaaah* Yang Shi suddenly jolted back t reality. The saber was still inside its scabbard. Yang Shi couldn't feel the illusion again.

" This saber is sure strange. I think it's an ancient weapon. It should be a True rank saber. Hmm, No, It's not right. I can' feel the treasure spirit inside it. I think it's broken, Damn."

The condition of the saber is the same as the sword Yang Shi brought from Hundred Gold Pavilion, It's at Half step True Rank.

Yang Shi unsheathed the saber. It was one and a half meters long. It was a pale silver blade, with a golden hue around its edges. It was giving off an ancient aura. This look was even ordinary than a Spirit weapon.

For example, Ye Zheng's spirit sword was made from pure gold and adorned with various precious gems.

But Yang Shi's heart was ecstatic, and his intuition was telling him that, even though the blade's external appearance is lacking, its absolute power was ten times over its counterpart. He caressed it with his finger and could feel a touch of warmth from it.

" Another nice weapon. I guess, My luck wasn't bad." Yang Shi rubbed under his nose.

" Let's wait till tomorrow."

" Little Brother Tang, Don't play with that ring. It's very precious."

" I know. Humph. My Senior Brother gave it to me, So I can do whatever I want."

" Senior Brother Only lent you this. Even He got this with extreme difficulty."

*BRUH* " I guess, You don't want the monthly commission, huh?" A young man said with authority.

" We don't dare."

" This Tang Zheng is getting overly arrogant. I wish I could strangle him to death."

" You could Only think about it. He has the right to be arrogant. He has a Primordial Spirit, Not to mention his elder brother."

" Sigh, It seems We have to endure for now."

Three people with an expensive purple robe, are moving with a dozens of guards. There was a Golden sun insignia on there back.

..................

Lin An a 20 bandits are driving five carts of goods. They are moving slowly toward a mountain region. Soon they arrived at a clearing.

" Damn, Where are those brats?" Even this time, They are late." a bandit grumbled.

" Mad Wolf, Don't speak loudly. Those brats are freaking arrogant. Don't forget, Who is behind them." Another bandit whispered.

" Both of You, Shut Up. I know how you are feeling. Once this transaction is over, We all going to have a hefty sum of money." Lin An shouted.

" Brother An, Why didn't Boss and Brother didn't come today?" a bandit asked curiously.

" They are on a mission. Now shut your mouth and wait." Although Lin An said it, His face contained fear and distress.

Suddenly, The silence of the forest was broken by a whistle. Lin An also took out a bone whistle and began to play.

After some time, Sounds of stamped of horses came near. Another group of bandits approached. But their carriages are different from the Lin An's carriages. One could see a large cages over the carriages. Many Young Boys are tied by a rope, lying inside the cages like dead animals.

" Third Senior Brother, I hope the journey has been well." The moment Lin An saw the new party, he rushed to them and bowed before a special carriage.

The carriage was bigger, Made from Red sandalwood, and embedded with various gems. Even a blind could tell that this luxurious carriage was one of its kind.

" Hmm, Why Old Bull didn't come today?" A man, Who was riding a black horse, spoke in a cold tone.

" Ahaha, Elder brother and Lin Yun went to a mission. They will be back soon. Second Senior Brother doesn't need to worry about." While talking to both, Lin A didn't even dare to lift up his head.

" I see, Let me check the goods." The man on horse came near to the carriages. The man flipped open the cover of boxes and saw weapons and tightly packed inside it.

" Hmm, Where is the main thing?" The man asked Lin An.

" Here, Second Senior Brother, Inside this box." Lin An showed the man a tightly seal box.

The cover of the box was quite heavy. The man lifted the box and saw it was filled with crossbows.

" MmHmm. These crossbows are more important than anything else." The man nodded in satisfaction. He ordered Lin An, " Empty these boxes."

" As, Second Senior Brother says." Lin An hurriedly nodded and ordered his fellow bandits to move all the boxes.

" Hmm, You have done good work this time, Here, Take your payment." A hoarse voice inside the luxurious carriage said to Lin An and his group.

Soon, A person came gave Lin An a pouch. It was filled with a special kind of gold coins. These coins have a red colored seal on them.

" Here, Fifty Royal Seal coins. Each one is equivalent to Ten Thousand Gold coins." The Man on the horse said.

Almost at that moment, Another group reached that place. The guards of the third group looked more orderly than the groups of Bandits. The wore a silver plate armor and a long spear with a silver tip.

Three young men can out of their carriage. They wore a Purple robe. The youngest boy came forward and arrogantly said, " Where are the goods?"

" Where are our things?" The man on the horse asked.

*Hmph* " First Show us our things, else You better pray for your life." The Young man said with a threatening tone.

" Littel Brother Tang, Please calm down." another young man in purple robe tried to calm the Surnamed Tang.

" You guys better leave this place." The person in Red sandalwood carriage ordered the group of Lin An.

" As Your Wish." Bowing another time, Lin An and his troop began to retreat. But Nobody saw That a young man with ordinary cloth was missing from the group of Lin An.

................

" Let's talk about the transaction." The third young man in Purple said to the Man on the horse.

" Very Well." The man on horse nodded and showed them the goods that Lin An had brought

" All things are good. Hmm? I think a crossbow is missing?" The Tang surnamed said with a doubtful tone.

" Tang Zheng, Just stop dilly-dallying. Even your brother is the core disciple of Golden Sun Sect, I still have the power to crush you." The Man on horse was annoyed by the behavior of Tang Zheng.

" Heh, You dare to fight me? I swear I will change my name if I didn't reak a few of your bones." Tang Zheng Angrily said.

" Second Cousin calm down. Brother Tang Zheng has come for the first time, So don't be rude to him.

Bother Tang Zheng, Please, complete the transaction." The person in red carriage said.

While Tang Zheng was thinking, A shrill voice sounded from afar.

" The opportunity has come, Slaughter these Golden Sun Sect's scums." Then three arrows suddenly pierced the head of three soldiers of Golden Sun Sect. Those the tumbled down, lying dead on the ground.

" No, It's Not Us." A person leaped out of the carriage, trying to explain things. But another arrow shot to the purple dressed young man, from the side of bandits.

" Blood Brother Bandits, You have gone too far. Guards, Slaughter these vermins" Tang Zheng Shoyted and he himself charged st the man on the horse.
