Chapter 555
Sebastian Simpson stared at the blade in Iris Lloyd’s hand. Not long ago, he’d thought Adrian was out of his mind for spending five high-grade pills on a piece of junk. Now he understood: they simply hadn’t known what they were looking at. Adrian had seen its true worth all along.Even Raymond was taken aback. He’d sensed there was something unusual about the blade, but he’d never imagined it was the legendary Fang. Still, he’d traded it away. He had no intention of trying to take it back.“Adrian! Thanks for finding me such a great blade! Hahaha!”Adrian, still fighting Vincent and the others, glanced over and smiled. “It suits you. Its killing intent is a little too strong, though. I’ll see what I can do about that later.”Iris Lloyd nodded firmly. “All right!”Then he turned to the three men before him. “You wanted to kill me, didn’t you? Come on!”The three exchanged a look.“Kill him, and Fang is ours!”They roared and swung their weapons at Iris Lloyd.He gripped Fang. The blade

“Is that man really a monk? Aren’t monks supposed to avoid killing? He’s a monster!”“Then let’s kill him together!”“Exactly! There are enough of us. No matter how strong he is, even ants can bring down an elephant if there are enough of them!”“That staff of his looks valuable. Whoever kills him gets to keep it!”After a brief exchange, the martial artists charged Emptiness again.He laughed wildly and swung his staff. Every blow left someone badly injured or dead. He looked like death itself, and soon no one dared get close.Not far from him, Octavia moved through the fight with two blades as thin as cicada wings. She appeared behind one enemy after another, killing them before they could turn. Her icy expression and elusive movements made her seem like a ghost dancing through the night.Some martial artists had picked her as a target because she looked small and harmless. They never even saw what killed them.Bodies lay scattered around Iris Lloyd as well. He was still fighting wi

“Kid, I’m going to kill you today! It’s the only way I’ll get over what you’ve done to me!”Benjamin’s furious outburst looked ridiculous to Adrian.They were about to clash again when Vincent shouted, “This kid—he’s the Adrian named in the martial arts kill order!”The room erupted. Everyone turned to Vincent. Some were already pulling out their phones to check.Benjamin stared at him. “Vincent, what did you just say?”Vincent held up his phone. “Azure Lotus Sword Sect issued a kill order for him! Whoever kills him gets a huge reward and becomes an elder of Azure Lotus Sword Sect. You’d be set for life!”Azure Lotus Sword Sect was one of the most powerful ancient martial arts sects. For most people there, joining it had been beyond their wildest dreams.Sebastian Simpson checked his phone, then checked again. His face went pale. “Mr.Doyle, what did you do? You’re the target of a kill order! We’re finished!”Emptiness laughed. “You sure know how to make a name for yourself. Only four

Douglas met Benjamin’s palm strike with his own.Douglas was the weaker of the two. Both men staggered back, but Douglas took more than ten steps before he stopped. Benjamin took only five or six.The difference was clear.Benjamin glared at him. “Douglas, have you lost your mind? You’re attacking me for this kid?”Douglas frowned. “We get along. I consider him a friend. He’s also my customer. Either way, I can’t stand by and let you hurt him.”“I was polite to you, and you started thinking you mattered?” Benjamin sneered. “If you want to die so badly, I’ll send you both to your graves.”Douglas turned to Adrian. “Once we start fighting, get out of here. You’re no match for him.”Adrian liked Douglas even more now. There was no fear on his face. Smiling, he patted Douglas on the shoulder. “Thanks for stepping in. That clash left you with an internal injury, didn’t it? Go take care of it. I’ll handle him.“One hand is all I need.”The next instant, Adrian lunged and drove a fist at Ben

Adrian offered no further explanation. He tossed the blade to Iris Lloyd. “Iris Lloyd, this is a fine blade. Do you trust me?”Iris Lloyd couldn’t figure out what Adrian was thinking, but she trusted him without question. She nodded. “I do.”Adrian nodded, satisfied. “Once we’re off this ship, I’ll show you what this blade can really do. Too many eyes on us here. Then you’ll know whether those five pills were worth it.”The others could only agree. They still didn’t understand, but Adrian wouldn’t do something foolish. Maybe they simply couldn’t see what he saw.They wandered from stall to stall before stopping at Douglas’s. Several rare medicinal herbs lay on display. Some visitors left pleased with their trades; others walked away sighing in disappointment.Douglas was friendlier than Raymond, calling out to people as they passed.Adrian scanned the stall and spotted the herb he needed tucked into a corner.Dragon Crystal Grass!His heart leaped. He had gathered nearly everything he

“Come take a look! Three-hundred-year-old snow lotus! Exactly as advertised!”“Bronze sword for one mid-grade Essence-Nurturing Pill! I’m practically giving it away!”Calls from vendors and the sounds of haggling filled the first deck.After making a full circuit, Adrian and the others found nothing they wanted.“We should split up,” Adrian said. “Staying together slows us down. None of us will find what we’re looking for this way.”Curtis North cupped his hands. “Then we’ll look around on our own. See you on the ninth deck.”Once the others left, only Emptiness and Adrian’s companions remained with him.They searched the second deck without finding anything either, though Sebastian Simpson made a few trades along the way. Adrian didn’t make a single one. He took his time, treating the trip as a chance to see what was out there.On the ninth deck, a noisy crowd caught their attention.“Mr.Raymond, that’s too much! Five Essence-Stabilizing Pills for a beat-up sword? Pills are rare enou
