Chapter 309 The Clash of Swords!

As they spoke, Fang Yu raised his sword, pointing its tip directly at Kimura Makoto.

Kimura Makoto’s expression remained unchanged as he looked at Fang Yu and said, “You may not believe what I say, but there’s no need for violence.”

“Indeed, we were in the wrong first, so even though you killed so many of my warriors, I can let it go.”

“But now you point your sword at me again…”

Kimura Makoto’s tone suddenly turned cold, saying, “We people of the Eastern State find it extremely disrespectful to have a sword pointed directly at us.”

“That’s precisely why I’m pointing my sword at you,” Fang Yu said.

Kimura Makoto snorted coldly, releasing a burst of sharp aura.

He looked at Fang Yu, his eyes gleaming coldly like a venomous snake.

At his waist hung a long sword with an antique bronze scabbard.

“Shing!”

He grabbed the hilt and drew the long sword.

As the blade left its scabbard, it emitted a crisp humming sound!

This sword was unlike others; its blade wasn’t the usual silver color, but black!

Clearly, the material used to forge this sword was no ordinary metal.

“My sword is named Divine Wind, and it hasn’t been drawn for three years,” Kimura Makoto said solemnly, looking at the sword in his hand.

He slowly leveled the sword, pointing it directly at Fang Yu.

“When Divine Wind is drawn, it must take an enemy’s life!”

Fang Yu looked at the Divine Wind sword, narrowing his eyes slightly, and said, “This sword is made of black xuan stone, isn’t it?”

Kimura Makoto’s eyes flickered.

He hadn’t expected Fang Yu to identify the material of Divine Wind at a glance.

The Eastern State was a country lacking in resources.

And black xuan stone was the hardest material in the Eastern State.

Due to its scarcity, black xuan stone was incredibly expensive.

Kimura Makoto’s Divine Wind, forged entirely from black xuan stone, consumed nearly a ton of the material, worth over a hundred million.

Beside him, Muto Ichiro looked at the Divine Wind in Kimura Makoto’s hand, his eyes full of envy and excitement.

This Divine Wind was a gift from the Chairman of the Eastern Commerce Association to Kimura Makoto, ranking in the top ten on the Divine Weapons List in the Eastern State, a truly divine weapon.

It was said that Divine Wind could cut through steel as easily as a kitchen knife through tofu!

Kimura Makoto cherished this sword immensely and would not draw it unless absolutely necessary.

And once drawn, it meant he respected his opponent and was determined to kill them!

Muto Ichiro looked at Fang Yu, his eyes filled with viciousness.

With Chairman Kimura personally taking action, Fang Yu would surely lose his head!

Kimura Makoto glanced at Qin Yimo and said, “Miss Qin, I have the utmost respect for you and the Qin family. But your subordinate is too arrogant, and today I won’t let him leave here alive. Please understand.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Kimura Makoto moved.

He stepped forward, leaped up, and flew toward Fang Yu.

At the same time, the black Divine Wind in his hand slashed down toward Fang Yu’s head.

His movement was incredibly fast, so fast that the bystanders couldn’t even react!

Fang Yu raised his sword, holding it horizontally in front of him.

Trying to block Divine Wind’s strike with an ordinary sword?

Impossible!

Divine Wind could easily cut through hard steel, let alone a fragile ordinary blade.

“Crack!”

The body of Divine Wind struck directly against the sword.

Contrary to Kimura Makoto’s expectation.

Fang Yu’s sword didn’t break; instead, a faint golden light emanated from the blade, actually putting pressure on Kimura Makoto who held Divine Wind!

“Bang!”

With a loud noise, Kimura Makoto retreated.

Fang Yu stood in place, smiling.

Now, the blade of the ordinary sword in his hand was burning with a faint golden light.

What enveloped it was Fang Yu’s true qi.

“Using true qi to enhance a sword is not the way of a swordsman!” Kimura Makoto said with a gloomy face.

“You’re allowed to use a sword forged from black xuan stone against me, but I can’t use true qi? That’s too unfair, isn’t it?” Fang Yu smiled faintly and said, “Besides, I’m not a swordsman to begin with, so I have no need to adhere to your warrior spirit.”

Kimura Makoto laughed coldly and said, “Even with your true qi, you’re no match for me. True swordsmanship can cut through everything.”

After speaking, Kimura Makoto shouted loudly and charged at Fang Yu again.

This time, his speed increased significantly, reaching Fang Yu’s front in the blink of an eye.

He gripped the hilt with both hands and slashed horizontally at Fang Yu.

Divine Wind cut through the air, producing a piercing sonic boom.

Fang Yu, holding his true qi-enhanced sword, easily blocked this strike.

Kimura Makoto’s attack speed was very fast; when one strike failed, he immediately withdrew Divine Wind and slashed at Fang Yu’s neck.

Fang Yu raised his sword again, intending to block this strike.

But just as Divine Wind was about to touch Fang Yu’s sword, it suddenly turned into a phantom and disappeared.

A cold wind came toward Fang Yu’s back.

“Oh?”

Fang Yu raised his eyebrows, quickly turned around, and blocked Kimura Makoto’s sword from behind.

“Nice footwork,” Fang Yu said, looking at Kimura Makoto in front of him.

With this strike blocked, Kimura Makoto’s eyes flashed with surprise, but he quickly snorted and continued his storm of attacks against Fang Yu.

The Divine Wind in his hand appeared and disappeared in the air, striking at various vital points on Fang Yu’s body.

To Qin Yimo, Qin Lang, and Muto Ichiro watching from the side, it was as if Kimura Makoto was wielding multiple Divine Wind swords attacking Fang Yu simultaneously.

Black sword shadows flashed through the air one after another, dazzling to the eye.

Kimura Makoto’s figure appeared in front of Fang Yu one moment, behind him the next, or at his side, ghostly and untraceable.

“This is Chairman Kimura’s… Broken Water Flow Sword Technique!”

Muto Ichiro’s eyes were full of shock and reverence.

Kimura Makoto’s offensive became increasingly rapid, and the sonic booms created by Divine Wind cutting through the air grew more piercing.

Qin Yimo’s face turned pale as she covered her ears, watching the two combatants from a distance.

“Clang! Clang! Clang!”

The crisp sounds of clashing blades echoed throughout the reception room.

At the same time, cracks appeared on the floor and nearby walls, cut by sword energy.

From the scene, Fang Yu appeared to be at a disadvantage.

He was constantly on the defensive, while Kimura Makoto’s attacks were relentless and increasingly fierce.

Currently, Fang Yu was defending successfully, but being on the defensive makes it easy to develop vulnerabilities and eventually lose.

“Sis, should I help…” Qin Lang looked at Qin Yimo and asked nervously.

“No need,” Qin Yimo shook her head and said.

Although Fang Yu appeared to be at a disadvantage, Qin Yimo still had complete confidence in him.

“Alright,” Qin Lang turned his head and continued watching the battle, his eyes filled with amazement.

The swordsmanship of these two… was truly incredible.

As one of the young talents of the Qin family, he had progressed smoothly in martial arts without encountering many difficulties.

He had mastered numerous techniques and movement skills, with strong combat abilities.

But compared to the two fighting before him, he was far inferior.

He knew clearly that if he were in Fang Yu’s position, he probably wouldn’t last two rounds before having his head cut off by Kimura Makoto’s Divine Wind.

This Fang Yu… is really as formidable as grandfather said…

Qin Lang watched Fang Yu, whose movements were so fast only afterimages could be seen, his eyes full of shock.

While dodging Kimura Makoto’s attacks, Fang Yu was also observing his movements.

Such high-intensity continuous attacks were very draining.

Especially since Kimura Makoto’s Divine Wind was forged from black xuan stone, making it much heavier than ordinary swords.

Under these circumstances, it would be difficult for Kimura Makoto to maintain this attack rhythm for long.

As Kimura Makoto continued his frenzied assault, his heart grew increasingly shocked.

He hadn’t expected that his storm of attacks using the Broken Water Flow Sword Technique would fail to inflict even the slightest wound on Fang Yu!

How was this possible!?

His swordsmanship ranked at least in the top three within the entire Eastern Commerce Association.

Combined with the enhancement of Divine Wind, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call him the top swordsman in the Eastern Commerce Association.

But now, facing Fang Yu, he had used his strongest sword technique, only to have Fang Yu perfectly evade it!

This was a tremendous blow to Kimura Makoto’s confidence!

Because he had already realized that if this continued, only one outcome awaited him.

Defeat!

Inevitable defeat!

The Broken Water Flow Sword Technique consumed a great deal of his energy; the longer it went on, the weaker its power became!
