Chereads / Demon Sword: The Strongest Samurai / Chapter 16 - Yashu vs Ken (2)

Chapter 16 - Yashu vs Ken (2)

"Alright, as per your request!"

Yashu raised the sword and rested it on his shoulder, he stepped slowly and leisurely towards Ken.

"What's with that man? Is he going to attack like that?" Everyone frowned in confusion and was also increasingly annoyed.

Ken himself felt his head almost explode from laughing, he never thought his opponent would attack in such a manner.

"Looks like you don't know how to attack with a sword, how about I give you some pointers!" Ken smiled widely, belittling the young man in front of him who was acting like a novice.

Without waiting for a response from Yashu, now Ken began to put on a stance, pulling his left leg back and a slightly bent body and leaning forward, straight and sharp gaze towards his opponent, as well as the right hand holding the sword at his waist.

"He will do it in one hit!" Just by looking at the horses that Ken made, everyone could tell Ken wanted to finish off the shabby young man with one attack.

Meanwhile, Yashu continued to walk leisurely, as if he didn't feel any threat from his opponent.

"You're asking for your death!"

"Golden lightning slash!"

Ken's golden sword shone slightly as his body shot like golden lightning toward Yashu who was about 7 meters in front of him.

The golden light was seen dancing with the ground and the slightly raised green grass along Ken's path of movement, the scene was both beautiful and stunning yet deadly as well.

"It is over!" Ken muttered when in front of Yashu with a sword that slashed towards the target's stomach.

Just before Ken's golden sword touched Yashu's clothes, Yashu's body became blurry, Ken was dumbfounded glaring.

"Sreeek!"

The sound of the sword slashing through the skin was heard by everyone, and after a few seconds, fresh blood immediately spurted from the wide and deep slash.

Everyone was silent like a statue, completely dumbfounded, even some of them almost fainted because they couldn't believe what they saw.

The blood that gushed was not coming out of the shabby young man's body but instead coming from Ken's stomach.

For a moment there was complete silence, no one said a word until finally Elder Wen came to his senses and called out his disciple's name in a voice full of worry.

"Ken!!!"

Elder Wen jumped up to help Ken who had collapsed on his half knee, while Ken just glared while holding a wide and deep cut in his stomach.

"Ken… Ken!"

Elder Wen tried to resuscitate Ken who kept looking at his stomach with wide eyes, as if not believing that it was his stomach.

Crekkk!"

Ken started to feel pain in his stomach and he finally winced in pain.

"It's still not finished, I will kill him" Ken clenched his teeth with bloodshot eyes, his anger peaked, and he tried to get up to avenge his opponent.

"Ken stop it, you can't do it, you've already received an invitation to the exam from the empire, if you don't heal your wounds soon, they will throw you out!"

Elder Wen didn't want to let his disciple's chances be ruined just because of a beggar.

"But, teacher…?" Ken does not dare to argue with his teacher, but his pride is also at stake.

"Don't worry, take a look! They all know that bastard young man cheated!" Elder Wen convinced his disciple not to have to take care of Yashu anymore.

"Let's quickly treat your wound first! You can repay him next time, for now, let Elder Gon punish him!" Continued Elder Wen who immediately took his disciple away from the place.

Before leaving, Elder Wen exchanged glances with Elder Gon, and of course, Elder Gon could easily understand that.

"What happened?"

"How could it be like that?"

"Something must be wrong!"

"It was just a coincidence, or maybe he had cheated!"

The guests started whispering to each other and couldn't believe the final result of the fight, from where Ken was superior, but what happened now was Ken was injured, while the shabby young man like a beggar was not scratched at all.

Who would believe such a thing.

"Kreek!!!"

A moment later the sword Yashu was using suddenly shattered and shattered into pieces, "Hmm, even though I just bought it." Seeing his new shattered sword Yashu became a little sad.

He took a deep breath and stepped leisurely intending to leave, but there was no place for him to remain there, At first, he thought he could get some clues about the great war 3 years ago without any problems.

"Wait!"

When Yashu had just walked a few steps, a hoarse and deep voice had to make him stop, the figure of a white-haired old man stood behind him, he is none other than Elder Gon.

"Teacher!"

Yona immediately realized after hearing the voice of her teacher who had now advanced a few steps in front of her.

"Who said you could just leave." Elder Gon said in a cold voice and glared at Yashu.

Yashu only turned his head slightly, he could feel the hostile aura from Elder Gon, he knew it was related to Elder Wen after all Yashu knew the two elders were quite familiar.

"What do you want?" Yashu didn't flinch in the slightest, he wouldn't be polite when he knew he hadn't done anything wrong, he had won the fight fairly.

"You thought I didn't see it, you fought like a coward!" Elder Gon said firmly, his face looked very serious, not only that he also gave off a pressing aura.

Everyone in the crowd could also feel the pressure of the aura, they knew Elder Gon wasn't joking.

"That youth is finished! Elder Gon can't possibly give him any mercy."

"Elder Gon is great, he can see the cunning tricks used by the beggar!"

"Yes, it is true."

Several guests who were at the front nodded in agreement with Elder Gon.

Yashu himself was silent and finally turned around, face to face with Elder Gon within 4 meters.

Elder Gon raised his right hand forward, then pointed at Yashu's face.

"You pretend to be a beginner-level samurai when you are already at the elementary or even intermediate level, and there's also something strange about that blindfold! You must be hiding something in there!" Elder Gon starts provoking Yashu and inciting everyone.

It certainly wasn't without foundation, just before Ken was released, Elder Gon had already seen Yashu's unusual movements, and also felt a strange aura emanating from Yashu's eyes, he thought the young man in front of him was most likely hiding something behind the black cloth covering his eyes.

Yashu who heard this was a little stunned, he didn't expect that Elder Gon would continue to watch him until he realized something behind his blindfold, and the problem of hiding power, according to him it's not something that should be a problem.

"If that's all you want to say then I'll take my leave immediately, being here is a mistake." Yashu didn't even care about the accusations that were put against him, he immediately turned around and walked away.

"You are right! People like you don't deserve to be in this clan, you have no manners and even dare to fight underhanded, I assure you that you will be expelled from the clan soon!" Elder Gon said in a deep and cold voice, then immediately turned around ignoring Yashu.

"Doesn't deserve to be in the clan?" Yashu stopped in his tracks, his face lowered slightly, and the black sword on his waist began to emit a murderous aura, and his red eyeballs shone within the black cloth covering them.
