Urban Cultivation with a Demonic System-Chapter 291 - 240: Su Yuan, Please, at the Very Least Not in Front of My Sister...
"Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect?!"
Upon hearing Su Yuan's words, Ji Ming, the leading Sword Refiner and former Young Hall Master of Chaotic Sword Hall, was taken aback.
Every Sword Cultivator knew how terrifying the sword technique "Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect" was.
But then Ji Ming thought it was impossible.
Su Yuan was just a high school graduate who had just broken through to the Foundation Establishment Stage and hadn't attended a single day of university. How could he have learned "Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect"?
Thinking of this, Ji Ming sneered:
"Bluffing, perhaps? I certainly won't let my guard down..."
However, before Ji Ming could finish speaking, an unexpected change occurred in the next moment!
The sword embryo in his hand, the modified flying swords in the hands of his subordinates, and even the hidden swords on the ground and underground of the Sword Repair Factory began to tremble!
Su Yuan pointed to the sky as if possessing some kind of magic, causing the tremors of these flying swords to intensify.
The first to be summoned were the ownerless swords on the field.
They soared up like fish swimming and surged towards Su Yuan.
Next were the modified flying swords in the hands of Qi Cultivation Stage and Foundation Establishment Stage Sword Refiners present.
Finally, even Ji Ming couldn't hold onto the sword embryo in his hand, and it flew out of his grip.
At this point, all the flying swords in the Sword Repair Factory circled around Su Yuan, reflecting dazzling cold light in the dark environment, leaving the Sword Refiners at a loss.
"From the beginning, you've misunderstood one thing."
"It's not that I am trapped in the Sword Repair Factory with you—it's that you are trapped in here with me."
Su Yuan spoke calmly, casually stroking a flying sword in front of him and shook his head:
"Moreover, you haven't taken good care of these flying swords, with violent and illegal modifications, causing these swords to hold great resentment against you."
"If possible, the flying swords would be more than happy to give you a good beating."
Ji Ming's Adam's apple moved slightly, feeling as if plunged into an ice abyss.
Because the method Su Yuan just demonstrated was exactly like "Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect."
Though Su Yuan hadn't controlled ten thousand swords, he had at least two to three hundred flying swords.
With so many flying swords, once they launched an attack on them... the consequences would be unimaginable.
It wasn't that his Foundation Establishment Peak Cultivation couldn't defeat Su Yuan, but once a battle commenced, it would be a civil war against his own property.
Letting his flying swords attack his employees, smashing his store... what kind of hellish scene was this!
Chaotic Sword Hall only had this little family foundation left, if it all fell in his hands, how could he revive Chaotic Sword Hall, and how could he earn university tuition for his little sister?
"You... you don't be impulsive."
Ji Ming clenched his fists and spoke to the enemy before him with humiliation.
"I'm not impulsive, on the contrary, I am very calm."
Su Yuan smiled faintly and took a step forward, causing tension among the Sword Refiners present.
However, Su Yuan had no intention of making a move, he simply brought Taibai Yuxi and walked slowly to the underground entrance of Chaotic Sword Hall.
Seeing Su Yuan enter the basement, Ji Ming nervously followed in but dared not follow too closely.
The underground space of Chaotic Sword Hall was very large, more than five times bigger than the 300-square-meter Sword Repair Factory above ground.
As Su Yuan looked around, his eyes were met with a vast array of modified parts and blueprints, organized yet chaotic.
With a thought, a highly modified flying sword flew out from the flying swords behind him.
This flying sword was not only redesigned with aerodynamic runes but also equipped with extremely exaggerated spiritual energy propulsion components and had undergone substantial hollowing to reduce the weight of the sword itself.
Along with a bunch of RGB light strips.
Yes, a ghostly boy's favorite.
Clearly, this flying sword didn't belong to Ji Ming and his people, but was deposited here by a customer for modifications.
Su Yuan didn't understand much about modifying flying swords, but he could see that Chaotic Sword Hall's level in this area was not low, likely retaining much of the technology from its heyday.
This was perfectly in line with Su Yuan's needs.
To absorb Chaotic Sword Hall's core technology and become a subsidiary sect of the Evil Extermination Sword Sect.
The idea of annexing Chaotic Sword Hall burned brightly!
Su Yuan maintained his composure and strolled leisurely.
Following behind, Ji Ming grew more and more anxious, and when Su Yuan stopped in front of a workstation, Ji Ming couldn't hold back any longer:
"Su Yuan! What exactly do you want!"
"As long as you leave my Chaotic Sword Hall's property, I can let you go immediately. Why do you need to be so aggressive?"
Su Yuan shook his head and said:
"It's not me being aggressive, but my inability to suppress the righteous heart against the Demon Sect."
"Chaotic Sword Hall has already fallen, leading one young Sword Cultivator after another astray into illegal modifications for your own selfish desires. How can I sit back and do nothing?"
Ji Ming: "..."
He looked at Su Yuan with a shocked gaze.
You, a Demon Sect Leader over 18+, dare say such things!
Don't you know how bad the Primordial Sect's reputation is on the Spiritual Net, and how many shocking birth incidents have been exposed?
Compared to the Primordial Sect, the Chaotic Sword Hall is practically a white lotus!
But regardless of Su Yuan's shamelessness, Ji Ming absolutely could not let Su Yuan report Chaotic Sword Hall.
Having been in the Evil Extermination District for so long, it was impossible for Ji Ming not to know some friends in the relevant departments, so he wasn't afraid of ordinary reports.
But, could Su Yuan's report be considered ordinary?
It would go straight to the high levels of Evil Extermination University!
At that point, which of his old friends would dare to protect Chaotic Sword Hall?
And if the relevant departments seriously investigate, the modified flying swords in Chaotic Sword Hall would not only be confiscated, but the sect itself might also face heavy fines and even be ordered to cease operations for rectification!
Thinking of these things, Ji Ming's gaze towards Su Yuan grew cold.
"I must not let this kid successfully report!"
"If I think calmly, even if he has truly mastered 'Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect,' so what? A mere Foundation Establishment First Layer cultivation—how can it support the enormous consumption of 'Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect'?"
"Perhaps if I act quickly, he won't have time to do anything before I capture him!"
"Once I capture this kid, even if I can't quell his intent to report, I will have plenty of time to hide all the evidence in the factory."
With this thought, Ji Ming began to gather immense Sword Qi in his clenched palm, ready to strike at any moment.
But just then, Su Yuan casually picked up a photo frame from the workstation in front of him.
"Young Hall Master, the little girl in this photo is quite cute."
"I guess this workstation is yours, and this little girl is your sister? How is her studying, has she gone to university?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Ming's heart shook fiercely.
The fist that had been tightly clenched gradually relaxed, and the reckless idea that had just been brewing vanished into thin air.
When a man becomes attached, he is no longer invincible.
And Ji Ming's attachment was his little sister, who just finished her college entrance exams this year.
He lowered his head in dejection and responded with a trembling voice:
"She's very good at studying, and her exams just ended... She should still be at home filling out her college applications now."
"She doesn't know about the feud between our family and Taibai Phecda, and I don't intend for her to bear this burden... Su Yuan, whatever you intend to do, direct it at me. Please don't go after my sister."
Su Yuan smiled and said:
"What kind of person do you take me for?"
"To be honest, I still feel guilty for what my master did to Chaotic Sword Hall to bring it to its current state."
"I think I should do something to make up for it."
Ji Ming was slightly taken aback, not believing Su Yuan would be so kind-hearted.
But if Su Yuan could truly let this matter slide, it would be the best outcome.
However, Su Yuan's next words shattered the faint trace of expectation rising in Ji Ming's heart.
Then Su Yuan calmly said:
"Young Hall Master, I believe your Chaotic Sword Hall can be incorporated into the Primordial Sect, becoming the flying sword modification department of the sect."
"If you perform well, I can offer you the position of Hall Master, and your staff won't have to stay with you in the Sword Repair Factory any longer."
As soon as these words came out, the anger Ji Ming had just suppressed flared up again.
"Taibai Phecda causing harm to Chaotic Sword Hall wasn't enough, and now you, the disciple, want to completely swallow it up!"
"Su Yuan, you're nothing but a born demon with no humanity!"
Su Yuan remained unmoved and simply asked:
"Do you have any other option?"
"I..."
Ji Ming opened his mouth, wanting to respond decisively.
But when the words reached his lips, he desperately realized that there truly was no way out for Chaotic Sword Hall.
This left him in a daze.
Didn't he just want to casually teach Su Yuan a lesson? How did it end up like this?
No, from the beginning, it was Su Yuan who proactively visited Chaotic Sword Hall.
Perhaps from the moment he stepped through the door of the Sword Repair Factory, Su Yuan had already firmly decided on a plan to swallow up Chaotic Sword Hall.
Thinking of this, Ji Ming felt as though an invisible hand was gripping his throat, making it hard for him to breathe.
Surrender? Or fight to the death?
Just as Ji Ming was struggling to decide, suddenly, the gate of the Sword Repair Factory above his head was knocked.
A voice as clear as silver bells came from outside the gate:
"Brother? Why is our factory closed? Did something happen?"
At the sound of that incredibly familiar voice, Ji Ming's heart tightened suddenly.
His sister, Ji Qin, had arrived!
He wanted to send a message for her to leave, but it was too late.
The sound of the door opening could be heard from outside.
As the eldest daughter of Chaotic Sword Hall, Ji Qin naturally had a key to the Sword Repair Factory.
If he were to send a message now, it would only make Ji Qin more suspicious and speed up her entrance to investigate the situation.
"Su Yuan..."
Ji Ming looked towards Su Yuan with pleading eyes:
"Please don't make a move in front of my sister, okay?"
Su Yuan tilted his head and smiled:
"That will depend on your sincerity."
Ten seconds later.
Ji Qin struggled to lift the heavy gate of the Sword Repair Factory.
What met her eyes were the uncles and aunts inside the factory, each busy with their duties, and her brother happily chatting with a bright young man.
This cheerful young man held the hand of a small girl with white hair and golden eyes, just like she once did with her brother.
"Brother, who are these two..."
Ji Qin hesitantly asked, pointing at the bright young man.
Ji Ming smiled and said:
"Little Qin, let me introduce you. These two are Sect Leader Su of the Primordial Sect and Miss Taibai."
"They are also our strategic partners for Chaotic Sword Hall; from now on, we will be working with Sect Leader Su."
Ji Qin suddenly understood and hurriedly greeted Su Yuan:
"Hello, Sect Leader Su."
After a pause, as if struck by realization, the young girl exclaimed:
"Wait a minute, Sect Leader Su of the Primordial Sect, could you be the direct disciple of Master Taibai?"
Ji Qin carefully examined Su Yuan's appearance and was immediately overjoyed:
"Sect Leader Su, I have great admiration for Master Taibai and was inspired by him to apply to the Evil Extermination Department of the Evil Extermination Sword Sect."
"It's an honor to meet his direct disciple today!"
Su Yuan smiled gently and said:
"Really, then we'll be classmates in the future."
"Let's look after each other once we start school."
"Okay!"
Watching the scene of his sister chatting happily with Su Yuan, Ji Ming felt a heavy sadness in his heart.
This was the reason he chose to compromise.
Back when Chaotic Sword Hall went bankrupt, Ji Qin was just a clueless little girl, unaware of what Taibai Phecda had done to the Hall.
She only saw the awe-inspiring presence of Taibai Phecda and fell hopelessly in love with Sword Dao.
Ji Ming had thought about stopping her, but ultimately gave up.
Because Ji Qin was born and raised in the Evil Extermination District, what other choice did she have besides applying to the Evil Extermination Sword Sect?
To prevent his sister from being bullied by the Demon at university, he had no choice but to swallow his pride and make concessions.
