Sword Among Us chapter 783 - responsible hero’s rules | English Novels Online

The outbreak of quests[1] at the borders and the appearance of the military title system attracted every player’s attention. Regardless of whether it was sects of solo players, everyone cast their attention into understanding the system behind the Emperor’s Announcement event. The shock brought by Ximen Chuixue’s disciple, who had appeared out of nowhere, finally died down a little.

However, Class One Hall never eased down on trying to recruit Ximen Chuixue’s disciple!

Right now, they finally had a third player who could be at the same rank as One Emperor and Happy, and there was no way Dream Clouds will be willing to miss trying to recruit him. Barren Murderer and Drifting Sword were still, after all, only at the level of Silver Wolf.

On this day, a few people appeared outside Ximen Chuixue’s abode in that alley.

A man in white robes and held a Clear Edge, which was a three-foot long sword, stood at the entrance arrogantly and aloofly while he shouted at the door.

“I am Drifting Sword, sect master of White Robe Sect, and I have specifically come to seek guidance from the Senior Ximen’s successor.”

The rhythmic sound of the sword draw in the courtyard came to a swift halt. Then, a teenager’s indifferent voice came from behind the door. “Do you know the rules?”

The people outside the street felt their hearts freeze.

Over the past few days, the people who came to the door and asked for Ximen Chuixue’s disciple to come out came in endless waves, but since Responsible Hero was an arrogant person, he always ignored them. There were even many people who forced him to come out in the name of seeking guidance from him so that they could force Responsible Hero into coming out, but these people all died.

Up until now, there was no longer a lot of people who dared stay outside the door!

Drifting Sword’s expression did not change. He calmly said a few words, “I challenge you to a duel.”

Only the duels approved by the system will allow Responsible Hero to avoid the punishment for killing people in the city. Hence, those who did not extend an invitation for a duel will not be able to see Responsible Hero.

Drifting Sword was a true martial artist, and he understood this. He had also came with the intention of trying to gain an understanding of the fastest sword in the world and see the legendary Ximen Chuixue’s sword technique, which was said to have reached a transcendent level, and see just how great it was. He also wanted to access from this and see just how great was One Emperor’s sword technique as well as what level it had reached so that he would know whether he had the chance of surpassing One Emperor.

Creeeaaaakk!

The door opened.

The mysterious teenager Responsible Teenager still looked like an icy mountain that will never melt. However, since he had killed many famous players or players ranked on Dragon Rank and Phoenix Rank in Beijing over the past one day or so, he now exuded an imperceptible but cold will, and when he looked at others, his gaze was even colder.

When his gaze landed on Drifting Sword, he looked as if he was looking at a dead person.

Drifting Sword said nothing. When he sensed Responsible Hero’s slightly preposterous gaze, Drifting Sword frowned slightly, and he was slightly displeased.

No matter what, he had already practiced martial arts for many years, and even though he was very astonishing by this youngster who had refused to come out of this house and just diligently as well as conscientiously practiced his sword in the game since he was sixteen, that astonishment had not reached the degree where Drifting Sword looked up to him.

He had seen Responsible Hero draw his sword before. Even though it was very fast and he knew from first person experience that it was so fast that he could not react to it, it did not mean that he could not fend against it.

Even though the famous Night Rain Asura lost his life in the duel, Drifting Sword was still confident in himself.

There were certain moves and details that will allow him to make his judgment before his enemy attacked, and he could parry in time!

This was a certain type of pride.

Normale people will not be able to understand or possess the mindset of the strong, but to Responsible Hero, this martial artist with the extraordinary presence in front of him was the same as other people.

He drew his sword and attacked every single day, and during the time he repeated this action day after day for a year, he had already reached the state where his heart was as calm as still water. At the same time, he also gained a deep and profound understanding toward this sword draw.

But since yesterday, he had improved a little again!

He noticed that his master had asked him to come out and fight in the duels because he wanted to train Responsible Hero’s sword technique and have it increase to a higher level. Last time, his sword draw carried with it a great intent for revenge. It had sufficient murderous intentions, but not enough murderous will! His will and sword will could not fuse together at all.

After all, his practice target all along had been bronze targets, not real people.

Yesterday, once he killed more than ten elites, Responsible Hero gained an even greater epiphany, and he gained an even deeper understanding and trust to his own sword. He could use it at ease, and when he struck, he defeated his opponents in one strike.

As of right now, he was even faster, and his sword glare was even sharper!

“I challenge you to a duel.”

“And I accept.”

Both were men of few words. Once Responsible Hero opened the door, he accepted the invitation for the duel straightaway, and when he accepted the duel, a golden yellow flag was stuck in the air before it vanished.

A duel symbolized fairness and impartiality. Those who died will not drop their equipment or be attached with the weakness status, but their ranking will be affected.

“You can attack now.”

Responsible Hero walked down from the stairs. His gaze was cold, and his tone was calm.

Drifting Sword did not refuse it. During the previous challenges, One Emperor or the others had never been able to last through Responsible Hero’s one sword draw. Once Responsible Hero drew his sword, it meant that the duel will end.

“Wait!”

At that moment, the sound of horse hooves swiftly drew closer from the distance. The person on the horse jumped down and landed near the duo.

Responsible Hero was stunned. He cast a person at the newcomer. He was in his twenties, and he looked rather normal, but there was an evil air about him, and when he jumped down the horse, his actions spoke of unruliness.

Responsible Hero saw this person online before. He was Barren Murderer, vice hall master of Class One Hall, and he was very powerful. Even though he was not ranked on Dragon Rank recently, once he returned to the Chinese server, talks about him had been rampant, and he was clearly Class One Hall’s best fighter!

“Young Responsible, let’s not be in a hurry to fight for now. Look at what I got you. Consider this as a small gift from Class One Hall.”

Barren Murderer clapped his hands with an evil grin, and a group of Class One Hall members behind him immediately pushed a few people forward.

When Responsible Hero saw the avoidant gazes from the familiar faces, his gaze focused swiftly. A faint murderous aura instantly spread out of him, and almost within that instant, his grip tightened around his sword hilt.

The people were shocked.

When his aura reached its peak, Responsible Hero stopped in his motion of drawing his sword. His gaze gradually turned icy, and he looked toward Barren Murderer, who had a slightly shocked expression appear on his face. “I don’t wish for anyone to butt into my matters.”

Anger could be detected in his voice.

“Don’t misunderstand. Once these people learn about you, they immediately wanted to run away, but our people captured them. Our hall master admires your abilities very well, and we wish that you will join Class One Hall. Your enemies are just a small gift from us, since it’s our first meeting. As for how we will treat you if you join us, our hall master has mentioned that aside from the position of hall master, you can raise any other requests!”

As expected of Class One Hall’s vice hall master, Barren Murderer showed no fear when he faced Responsible Hero, who was now angry. He still managed to smile.

Once Responsible Hero finished listening to his words, the anger in his eyes when he thought he had been played around gradually diminished.

His gaze landed on his enemies’ faces once more while they still tried to avoid meeting his eyes. A hint of scorn appeared in his gaze. “It’s been one year, and you’re still so weak.

“Get lost. When I’m free, I’ll naturally come for your heads.” Responsible Hero was not in a hurry to take momentary revenge, because he knew that these people did not have the strength to fight back at all in front of him. If he wanted to seek vengeance, he could do so anytime.

“Take them away.”

Barren Murderer smiled and, without hesitation, ordered his people to take these nobodies away. His gaze landed on Responsible Hero again. “Brother, have you thought about my suggestion just now?”

“As long as someone from Class One Hall can receive one sword thrust from me without dying, I will agree to your request.”

It was rare that Responsible Hero made a request, and this was what he said in reply.
