Celestial Master： I Have an Otherworld-Chapter 278 - 94: Sword Hero

"I’m waiting for you!"

Hanging up the phone, Mu Yuanchun casually tossed the phone aside, standing with hands behind his back at the floor-to-ceiling window, quietly gazing into the distant scenery.

The place he was currently at was a three-story villa on the outskirts of Qu City.

The surroundings were lush with greenery, and the neighbors were a great distance apart, so no matter how loud the noise, there was no need to worry about disturbing outsiders.

From the window, one could gaze far into the mountainous landscapes, and below were rock gardens and flowing water features; the only downside was the inconvenience of grocery shopping, everything else was a plus.

"Young Master Mu."

A hoarse voice sounded from behind:

"Will he come?"

"Perhaps." Mu Yuanchun turned around at the sound, saying:

"Based on the investigations during this time, Fang Zheng isn’t the type to plot before acting. On the contrary, this person acts very rashly."

"His first reaction in any situation is to act directly!"

"However..."

"The one named Fang isn’t a fool either. Knowing full well there are tigers in the mountain, he may not necessarily go there. It wouldn’t be surprising if he doesn’t come."

"Mr. Shangquan, are you looking forward to a confrontation with him?"

In the center of the room sat a person cross-legged, barefooted, with a rugged face and sharp eyes, the whole aura was as sharp as the long saber hanging on his waist.

From the wrinkles on his face, he was no longer young.

This man was the renowned swordsman from Japan, known as the Eastern Sword Hero, Shangquan Xiuzun, who once single-handedly fought off over ten Yamaguchi Group elites with a single sword.

"Yes."

Shangquan Xiuzun nodded, speaking in a stiff Xia language:

"Xia Country is the birthplace of our nation’s Martial Arts, for hundreds of years there have been outstanding martial artists. I have always admired it greatly."

"More than a year ago, I accidentally heard of the Divine Fist, Martial Arts Grandmaster, and my perspective suddenly opened up, my Sword Dao cultivation base made great advances."

"Being able to spar with the top martial artists of Xia Country is my honor!"

"Is that so?" Mu Yuanchun frowned:

"Even so, there’s no need to seek out that Fang person, right? There are many famous martial artists in Xia Country, but Fang Zheng is virtually unknown in the Martial Arts circle."

"Hmph!"

Shangquan Xiuzun showed disdain:

"I have visited several renowned Martial Artists of Xia Country, but unfortunately, they were not as renowned as their names would suggest, each one is nothing but an empty name."

"Fang Zheng is different..."

"He studied under the Xingyi Fist master Guo Ziran, and the one who proposed cultivating Fist Intent and achieving the Martial Arts Grandmaster state was precisely this Master Guo."

"What a pity!"

He sighed, face showing regret:

"Master Guo has already passed away, and I couldn’t meet him, which is really regrettable, but a disciple personally trained by him shouldn’t be inferior."

"I see..." Mu Yuanchun mused:

"There are many rumors about Fang Zheng circulating in Qu City, some of which paint him as an Immortal, so he probably has some real skills."

Saying this, he lightly shook his head.

In today’s society, what can great fighting skills do for you?

No matter how high one’s Martial Arts, a single bullet can bring them down. Here, he had three pistols; even a world champion would need to kneel obediently.

He wasn’t afraid of Fang Zheng coming.

He was afraid Fang Zheng wouldn’t come!

"Young Master."

At this moment, someone pushed the door open and came in, saying:

"Miss has sent a message; she has already captured Manager Wen from Square Porcelain and is on her way here."

"Tell her not to come yet," Mu Yuanchun waved his hand:

"Wait for my word outside, and meanwhile, call our friends from the streets of Qu City and the Public Security Bureau to see if Fang Zheng has contacted them."

"Yes."

The visitor acknowledged, taking out a phone to reply.

Time passed by slowly.

"He’s here!"

In the surveillance room, someone suddenly spoke:

"He’s really come!"

Two shadows appeared on a high slope from where they could overlook the villa complex below and spot the target location.

"Boss."

Tian Liang sounded worried:

"Are we really going?"

"As the saying goes, don’t fight unprepared battles. Right now, that Mu fellow just wants to lure you over; surely it has been set with numerous ambushes."

"We could contact the Public Security Bureau, and personnel from Yuan Family Village and Old He could also help, rendering any trap useless once everyone is gathered."

"Qu City..."

"Is named Fang, not Mu!"

"Since when do you talk so much?" Fang Zheng glanced back, expression indifferent:

"Don’t worry, you don’t need to come over. Just stay here waiting for things to conclude. Those cameras probably already caught us."

Saying so.

He glanced at the cameras hidden in the treetops, without any change in his expression the entire time.

"No..." Tian Liang looked embarrassed, quickly proclaiming his loyalty:

"I should go and clear the path for you first."

Though he spoke thus, his body seemed nailed to the spot, with no intention of taking a step forward.

Fang Zheng shook his head.

Although Tian Liang looked robust and had showy tattoos, he was actually very timid, far surpassing Zhang Yong in that aspect.

If Fang Zheng insisted Tian Liang go clear the path, he wouldn’t dare disobey, but...

Just a burden!

When he gets back, let him be the security supervisor instead.

Thoughts turning, he began walking down the slope; it was already twilight, with the sunset glow across the sky, the bright sunlight gradually diminishing.

Fang Zheng lightly patted the Five Ghosts’ Pouch on his waist, uttering softly:

"Go!"

"Screech!"

The Five Ghosts, trapped in the Five Ghosts’ Pouch for a long time, now emerged collectively letting out an exultant sharp cry, turning into five wisps of black smoke heading forward.

It was, after all, daytime.

The Five Ghosts, with their strong Yin Energy, still had to avoid the remnant glow of the sunset, shuttling beneath the tree shadows, heading towards each surveillance camera.

Five Ghost Transport Technique!

"Click..."

Surveillance equipment is composed of very precise components, and simply damaging one node can render the equipment malfunctioning.

And the ghost’s perception is different from the human eye, capable of finding any hidden monitoring devices and causing damage.
