Bright Sword: This unit is really ruthless

Chapter 465 Where is she?

General Zhang hesitated for a moment and said, "Your mother...she...she is still alive."

"What?" Zhang Ling widened his eyes, unable to believe his ears.

He had always thought that his mother was dead, but he didn't expect... he didn't expect that she was still alive!

"Where is she?" Zhang Ling asked anxiously.

General Zhang shook his head and said, "I don't know. The letter only says that your mother is still alive, but it doesn't say where she is."

Zhang Ling's heart was filled with confusion and excitement, and he couldn't wait to find his mother.

"Father, who sent this letter?" Zhang Ling asked.

General Zhang shook his head and said, "I don't know. There is no signature on the envelope."

At this moment, there was a loud noise outside the window, and then the whole general's mansion shook...

Zhang Ling and Zhang Linghu's swords pointed at each other, sparks flew everywhere, and the servants watching held their breath, afraid to miss any details.

Zhang Linghu took the lead in launching the attack. The long sword in his hand pierced Zhang Ling's throat like a poisonous snake. This move was fast and fierce, and it was obviously a killing move.

Zhang Ling showed a sneer on his face, and he turned his body slightly to avoid the attack easily. He counterattacked with the long sword in his hand, and went straight to Zhang Linghu's chest.

Zhang Linghu didn't expect Zhang Ling to be so agile, and quickly stepped back to avoid it.

"Oh, you're quite capable!" Zhang Linghu grinned, "But do you think you can defeat me like this? You're too naive!"

After saying that, Zhang Linghu launched another attack. This time his attack was more fierce and his sword moves were more tricky.

Zhang Ling responded calmly. The long sword in his hand was like a swimming dragon, sometimes blocking, sometimes counterattacking, dissolving Zhang Linghu's attacks one by one.

The two men fought back and forth, swords flashing, and it was difficult to tell who would win for a while.

The servants who were watching were dazzled and exclaimed in amazement.

"When did this young master become so powerful?"

"It seems that we all underestimated him before."

"Now there's something good to watch."

Zhang Linghu became more and more frightened as he fought, and he found that he could not suppress Zhang Ling at all. This made him extremely angry, and he roared and used his ultimate move - Tiger Descending the Mountain!

This move is extremely powerful and unstoppable.

Seeing this, Zhang Ling did not dare to be careless. He took a deep breath and poured all the energy in his body into the sword.

"break!"

Zhang Ling shouted loudly and swung the sword in his hand suddenly. A sharp sword energy shot out and collided head-on with Zhang Linghu's Tiger Down the Mountain.

boom!

With a loud bang, the two forces canceled each other out, stirring up a cloud of dust.

When the dust settled, Zhang Ling and Zhang Linghu were seen standing there, motionless.

The servants who were watching were all looking at the two nervously, not knowing who would win or lose.

Suddenly, Zhang Linghu groaned, spat out a mouthful of blood, and staggered back a few steps.

"You...you actually..." Zhang Linghu pointed at Zhang Ling, his face full of disbelief.

Zhang Ling sneered: "Do you think I'm still the same loser as before?"

Zhang Linghu wanted to say something, but finally he couldn't hold on and fell to the ground.

The servants who were watching were suddenly in an uproar.

"The young master won!"

"It's incredible!"

"The young master is so amazing!"

Zhang Ling put away his sword, glanced coldly at Zhang Linghu on the ground, then turned and left.

He did not kill Zhang Linghu because he knew that killing Zhang Linghu would only bring him more trouble.

Moreover, he has more important things to do, that is revenge!

In the following days, Zhang Ling consolidated his martial arts while secretly investigating the world where Mieko lived.

He discovered that this world had some connection with his original world, and he could travel through it through a special formation.

However, this formation is very complicated and requires a rare mineral called "Stone of Time and Space".

Zhang Ling began to ask around for the whereabouts of the Time and Space Stone. He heard that this kind of ore was only found in the royal treasury.

So he decided to sneak into the royal treasury and steal the Time and Space Stone.

This is an extremely dangerous plan, and any mistake could cost you your life.

However, for the sake of revenge, Zhang Ling could no longer care about so much.

On a dark and windy night, Zhang Ling sneaked into the royal treasury.

The treasury is full of traps and heavily guarded.

However, these did not pose any difficulty for Zhang Ling.

Relying on the experience and skills of his previous life, he cleverly avoided all the mechanisms and guards, and finally came to the place where the Time and Space Stone was stored.

The Time and Space Stone was placed in an exquisite box, which was engraved with complex runes.

Zhang Ling opened the box carefully, and saw a stone emitting a faint glow lying quietly inside.

This is the Time and Space Stone!

Zhang Ling was delighted and was about to reach out to take it, when suddenly, a cold laugh came from behind him.

"Haha, I didn't expect you to actually dare to come here."

Zhang Ling turned around suddenly and saw a man in black clothes and a bamboo hat standing behind him.

The man held a dagger in his hand, which was flashing with a cold light.

"Who are you?" Zhang Ling asked vigilantly.

The man sneered: "It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that you must die here today!"

After saying that, the dagger in the man's hand stabbed towards Zhang Ling's chest like lightning.

Zhang Ling dodged quickly, and the dagger scraped across his clothes, leaving a deep cut.

"What a fast speed!" Zhang Ling was secretly surprised.

The man did not give Zhang Ling a chance to breathe. He attacked again. The dagger in his hand kept stabbing at Zhang Ling's vital points like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue.

Zhang Ling responded calmly. The sword in his hand was like a swimming dragon, dissolving the man's attacks one by one.

The two men fought back and forth with swords flashing and sabers flying, and it was difficult to tell who would win for a while.

Just then, a noisy sound suddenly came from outside the treasure house.

"Catch assassins!"

"Someone sneaked into the treasure house!"

"Someone come quickly!"

Hearing the shouting outside, the man's face changed. He knew he couldn't delay any longer.

He roared and used his ultimate move - Ghost Shadow!

This move was extremely strange. The man's figure instantly became blurred, like a ghost, making it impossible to track him.

Zhang Ling was startled and immediately became alert.

Suddenly, the man appeared behind him and stabbed him in the back with the dagger in his hand.

At the critical moment, Zhang Ling turned around suddenly and blocked the dagger attack with the sword in his hand.

clang!

With a crisp sound, the dagger broke and the man disappeared again.

Zhang Ling knew that the man must have escaped.

He didn't dare to delay, and quickly picked up the Time and Space Stone, then turned around and fled the treasure house.

Shortly after he left the treasury, a large group of guards rushed in and surrounded the treasury.

……

Zhang Ling successfully stole the Time and Space Stone, but he did not leave the Great Zhou Dynasty immediately.

Because he knew that Mieko would never give up and she would definitely send people to hunt him down.

He must first improve his own strength before he will be able to fight Mieko.

So, he decided to go to the legendary "Martial God Mountain" to look for the inheritance of the legendary "Martial God".

It is said that the God of War is the most powerful warrior in the world, and his inheritance can give people the power to destroy the world.

However, Wushen Mountain is located in an extremely dangerous place, full of various ferocious beasts and powerful warriors.

Moreover, the entrance to Wushen Mountain is extremely secretive, and few people know its exact location.

How can Zhang Ling find the Martial God Mountain? Can he obtain the inheritance of the Martial God?

The swords of Zhang Ling and Zhang Linghu collided, making a sharp metallic collision sound. Zhang Linghu's swordsmanship was powerful and majestic, like a tiger descending from the mountain. However, Zhang Ling's swordsmanship was agile and changeable, like a dragon playing in the water, erratic.

The servants who were watching were dazzled. They had never expected that this young master, who usually only knew how to eat, drink and have fun, could have such exquisite swordsmanship.

"When did this kid become so powerful?" a servant said in surprise.

"It seems that we all underestimated him." Another servant echoed.

Zhang Linghu became more and more frightened as he fought, and he found himself gradually losing the upper hand. When did this useless cousin become so difficult to deal with?

"Impossible! You must have used some witchcraft!" Zhang Linghu roared.

Zhang Ling sneered: "Magic? There's no need for magic to deal with a wretch like you."

Before he finished speaking, the long sword in Zhang Ling's hand suddenly accelerated and stabbed towards Zhang Linghu's chest like a flash of lightning. Zhang Linghu was unable to dodge and his clothes were cut by the long sword, leaving a blood mark on his chest.

"Ah!" Zhang Linghu screamed, covering his chest and stepping back repeatedly.

Zhang Ling did not pursue the victory, but retracted his sword and said calmly: "Let's stop here today, and we will fight again next time."

Zhang Linghu's face turned pale. He didn't expect that he would be defeated by this useless cousin, and defeated so thoroughly.

"Just wait for me!" Zhang Linghu said harshly and turned away.

The servants who were watching cast respectful glances at Zhang Ling. They had not expected that this young master, who was usually unknown, was actually so secretive.

Zhang Ling returned to his room, feeling secretly proud. Although this body was useless, it had become increasingly powerful after his transformation.

"Mieko, just wait, I will definitely come back to settle the score with you!" Zhang Ling said gritting his teeth.

In the following days, Zhang Ling studied the knowledge and culture of this world while practicing martial arts. He found that although the martial arts in this world were magical, they lacked systematic theoretical guidance, and many martial arts moves were explored by experience.

"It seems that I have to apply the scientific knowledge from my previous life to the practice of martial arts." Zhang Ling thought.

He began to study the human body's meridians and acupoints, and combined with his previous life's knowledge of anatomy and physiology, he created a completely new set of martial arts training methods.

With this new training method, Zhang Ling's martial arts improved by leaps and bounds, and he soon surpassed all the martial artists in the mansion.

One day, Zhang Ling was practicing in the back garden when he suddenly heard a sweet voice: "Master, are you practicing?"

Zhang Ling looked in the direction of the voice and saw a girl in a pink dress walking over. The girl had a beautiful face, a graceful figure, and a pair of big watery eyes that were full of spirit.

"Who are you?" Zhang Ling asked.

The girl smiled and said, "I am a new maidservant, my name is Xiao Tao."

Zhang Ling nodded, said nothing more, and continued practicing.

Xiao Tao stood aside, watching Zhang Ling practice quietly, her eyes full of curiosity. She found that this young master's martial arts moves were unique, full of power and beauty.

"Sir, your martial arts are so powerful." Xiao Tao couldn't help but admire.

Zhang Ling smiled faintly: "It's just a trivial skill, not worth mentioning."
