Is It Too Late to Leave the Chat Group? Book 04 Chapter 056: Successfully Swindling Skadi Away

Every generation of the Chen Clan inheritor who created their unique sword conception could add their sword move and sword conception to the Chen Clan Sword Technique. Thus, the Chen Clan Sword Technique had increased from the original 49 moves to the current 89.

Chen Heng closed his eyes, but Skadi did not take advantage of this to attack him.

Control the sword with the heart; the sword follows the body; the sword changes with every step, each thought a sword; simplicity in its extremes and strength in its extremes. This was the sword conception of Chen Heng’s Shadowless Sword.

When Chen Heng opened his eyes again, Skadi felt her hair stand on end. To her senses, he had completely changed, becoming utterly menacing. She sensed extreme danger approaching her.

Remaining in place, Chen Heng waved his hand casually, sending out a crescent-shaped sword qi. The sword conception he infused into it had it rushing at Skadi lightning quick.

Clang! Skadi raised her gigantic sword and blocked this sword qi. The sword conception did not just accelerate the sword qi but even strengthened it.

Initially, Skadi thought one sword qi would be the end of it. However, countless sword qi followed, rushing towards her.

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Metallic clangor resounded throughout the drill ground. Those who did not know would think a smith was at work.

The Shadowless Sword pursued speed. Firing sword qi with the Shadowless Sword made for swift, high-frequency attacks.

Of course, that was not all there was to the Shadowless Sword’s sword conception.

Skadi could only use her gigantic sword as a shield against the countless sword qi. This continued for about ten seconds. She managed to endure the first wave of sword qi, only to realize Chen Heng was missing.

“Skadi, you lost.” Chen Heng’s voice rang out behind Skadi. She wanted to swing her sword back but suddenly discovered a sword had been placed against her neck at some point.

“You win.”

This was Chen Heng’s second method of using the Shadowless Sword’s sword conception: speed and invisibility.

He had used the Shadowless Sword’s sword conception as buffs: first, a buff to increase the speed of the sword qi and their frequency of fire; second, a buff to increase his speed and make himself invisible. However, this was not the right way to use the Shadowless Sword.

Chen Heng knew he could not bring out the Shadowless Sword’s sword conception’s true power like this. However, he also knew the Shadowless Sword did not suit him, so he did not focus on comprehending the profundity of Shadowless Sword’s sword conception.

This time, he used the Shadowless Sword against Skadi purely because it countered her. To deal with a high-offense, low-speed, heavyweight opponent, he should play the swift and nimble assassin. Of course, it would only work if he did not get hit.

“Skadi, do you have any plans for the next few days?”

“Why? Is something up? I plan to rest in Rhodes Island for a day before going on a mission tomorrow.”

Now, Chen Heng and Skadi walked towards the canteen. While he had eaten breakfast, Skadi had not.

As they walked, Skadi dabbed scar removal medicine from Chen Heng on the minor wounds he had inflicted. No matter how rash she may be, she was still a woman; she cared a lot about her appearance.

“Is your schedule that tight?”

“I don’t know anyone in Rhodes Island. So why stay here?” The lonely killer whale girl suddenly looked even lonelier.

“However, you do now.” Chen Heng pointed to himself.

“So, what are you planning?” Skadi did not refute him. Instead, she asked what Chen Heng planned.

“Skadi, would you like to visit Lungmen?”

“Lungmen?”

“That’s right.”

“Not interested.” Skadi immediately refused.

“Don’t say that. Lungmen is a bustling city of trade. Isn’t there anything you want to buy?”

“None at all.”

“Take it as a relaxing trip. Can’t you relax after working so hard for so long? You went on such a long mission; it is time to relax. We happen to be planning to take a relaxing trip to Lungmen, so I thought of bringing you along.”

“…There are others?”

“Just my patient—Nightingale. Then there are Lungmen’s local tyrants, Exusiai and Texas. Those two will be responsible for bringing us around.”

“You also have a patient? Are you sub-classing Medic?”

“I only treated her with my clan’s secret medicine. I know nothing about medicine. So, let’s take a trip to Lungmen.”

“…Alright.”

“Don’t worry. I guarantee your fun in Lungmen.”
