Chapter 4: Is There Something Wrong with Your Eye
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“You’re seeking death!”
‘I am a Dou practitioner and Shu Ke is just a piece of trash who can’t cultivate. How dare he belittle me?!’
Kuta was burning with anger at the moment. He wished he could bite Shu Ke to death.
Immediately, the strength of the Thousand Blade Fist increased a little. A few blade lights attached to Kuta’s fist, as if he was wearing a glove with blades.
“Cool!”
“As expected of a tier 3 Dou technique. Shu Ke will have to kneel and beg for mercy!”
…
Kuta got carried away as he listened to all the flattery.
When he turned his head, he saw that Shu Ke was still staring at him in disdain with a broken tree branch in his hand.
The waves of pain from Kuta’s face made his entire body tremble. His rage had engulfed his rationality.
“I want you dead!”
Kuta was extremely overwhelmed with anger towards Shu Ke. His entire was sunk into a state of rage.
To others, this could be a problem.
After all, incidents, where an unruly opponent defeated an experienced practitioner, did happen before.
But to Shu Ke, Kuta’s actions would only expose more of his flaws.
“Idiot.” Shu Ke had lost interest in Kuta.
He was originally excited as it was his first actual battle, but now he only saw Kuta as an idiot.
The Thousand Blade Fist was right there in Kuta’s hands, but he didn’t use it. If he wasn’t an idiot, then what else could he be?
“The Thousand Blade Fist is simply a waste in your hands!”
Shu Ke raised his hand and put the wooden stick forward, like an old man holding his walking stick. His move was slow and gentle, like there was no strength at all.
‘Who is the actual idiot?’
‘Does this guy really want to use a broken tree branch to fight against the Thousand Blade Fist?’
From everyone’s point of view, Shu Ke was the real idiot.
‘Trying to defeat the Thousand Blade Fist—a tier 3 Dou technique—with a broken tree branch?’
‘What kind of nonsense is that?!’
Naturally, this what Kuta thought too.
“You wanted to use a tree branch to defeat me? Do you think you’re a Sword Mas—”
Before he could finish his sentence, the tree branch in Shu Ke’s hand had already broken through the layers of blade light of the Thousand Blade Fist.
Like a slippery loach, it slid towards Kuta.
Woosh!
Stream of blood spurt, followed by a pungent smell. Immediately, everyone woke up from their early morning stupor.
“Ah!!”
“My hand! My hand!!”
Kuta, who was holding his shoulder, could not help but shout.
Tears and snot rolled down his face. His earlier complacency was gone.
Shu Ke looked at Kuta, who was still crying in agony. His eyes were full of indifference and disdain.
The broken tree branch that everyone looked down upon had pierced through Kuta’s shoulder. A stream of blood kept dripping onto the ground from the branch.
The pungent smell of blood seemed to have become stronger by the second.
“It’s a pity that the Thousand Blade Fist is in your hands,” said Shu Ke as he pulled out the tree branch.
A heart-wrenching pain surged within Kuta. He could only let out a short scream before fainting.
“If you send him for treatment now, he can still be saved.”
Shu Ke casually threw the branch on Kuta’s body and headed for the treasury without looking back.
Everyone who had been by Kuta’s side was dumbfounded at this moment.
They looked at Shu Ke.
‘Is he really the trash we knew?’
‘Is he really the trash who can’t cultivate and is going to be expelled from the family?!’
‘If he is called trash…’
Everyone could not help but look at Kuta who was still lying on the ground.
‘Then what is Kuta?’
However, they immediately realized that these weren’t the issue that they should care about.
Looking at the pale-faced Kuta, they quickly carried him to find a healer.
…
“This treasury seems to be a little smaller than before?”
At the entrance, all he saw were glittering pearls and mountains of gold and jade.
It was obvious that the things inside were extremely precious.
Shu Ke was not surprised. Instead, he felt that a lot of things were missing from the treasury.
However, this thought did not last long in Shu Ke’s mind.
After all, the last time he had come to this treasury was eight years ago. When he had first discovered that he could not cultivate, he came to look for treasures that could assist him in cultivation.
However, those from the Elder Council and the family patriarch were reluctant to give him the treasures, so they sent him away with nothing.
“Small? You can’t even distinguish size?”
At this moment, there were still a few people from the younger generation who were looking for something in the treasury. They all looked at Shu Ke with a hint of mockery on their face as they heard those words.
After all, he was a well-known piece of trash. The whole family thought of Shu Ke as a parasite, so it was normal for them to look down on him.
Shu Ke had heard these words countless times, so he did not show any reaction at that moment. He just laughed indifferently and ignored them.
After all, they would know who was the real trash in a month!
“Why does it feel like this kid is a little different?”
“A piece of trash will always be a piece of trash. Even if he really turned over a new leaf, he’s still trash!”
Some of them noticed that Shu Ke was different from before, but most people still looked down on him.
However, this was normal. After all, only a few people were willing to believe that Shu Ke—a good-for-nothing trash for eighteen years—had changed overnight.
“Are you a member of the Vincent Family?” Just as everyone was laughing at Shu Ke, the voice of an old man was heard.
Everyone immediately shut their mouths and lowered their heads to focus on searching. It was as if they had encountered a ferocious beast.
Only Shu Ke was looking for the source of the voice. In the end, he saw a white-haired and kind-looking old man staring at him with a gentle look on his face.
‘Analyzing… Analysis was successful. 200 energy points consumed.’
Shu Ke immediately raised his eyebrows. ‘200 energy points consumed?’
He had only used 20 energy points to analyze Kuta and his fighting techniques just now. Now, he used up 200 points for subconsciously analyzing the old man?
This old man had to be a Dou Grand Master1 at the least!
However, the analysis was not a complete loss. Shu Ke noticed that there seemed to be a problem with the old man’s left eye—a big problem.
“Who are you? Why haven’t I seen you before?”
The old man came to Shu Ke’s and looked at him with a smile. There seemed to be a deathly aura circulating in his cloudy eyes.
“Old man, is there something wrong with your eye?”
