Chapter 225 Yin Yang Thunderfire Sword
Chen Yang looked at the broadsword in his hand.
This sword is only one meter long, but more than thirty centimeters wide, and the blade is exceptionally heavy.
On the blade of the sword, there were also faint, fine array patterns engraved.
Chen Yang glanced at the array patterns and instantly understood: these array patterns could enhance the conduction of spiritual energy and also amplify the power of fire and lightning attribute techniques!
No wonder Han Penglei was able to use this sword to draw upon the lightning power of the Seven-Colored Thunder Array!
Moreover, this sword is not only wide and heavy, but also exceptionally sharp on both sides of the blade.
Chen Yang brandished the sword, becoming increasingly satisfied with it—it was much better than his previous Thundercloud Sword!
After all, this sword can not only release lightning, but also enhance lightning, and it is thick, heavy and sturdy, with strong physical destructive power.
Suitable for a strongman monk like myself.
Just then, the system panel suddenly made a "ding" sound!
[Ding! Host has obtained a superior-grade spiritual weapon – the Yang Lei Sword!]
[Note: The Yang Thunder Sword is a replica of the Heavenly Rank Spiritual Treasure "Yin Yang Thunderfire Sword." This sword is the "Yang Thunder Sword," and can be used in conjunction with the "Yin Fire Sword" to double its power!]
[Ding! You can consume 150,000 spirit stones to upgrade the Yang Lei Sword to the Yellow-Rank Spirit Treasure level!]
Chen Yang's eyes lit up instantly when he saw this introduction!
It turns out this sword has another half, the Yin Fire Sword!
Great, perfect for me!
I just seized 170,000 spirit stones from Han Penglei, which will be perfect for upgrading!
After all, there is a fundamental difference between a spirit treasure and a high-grade spirit weapon!
Without any hesitation, Chen Yang immediately chose to upgrade!
[Ding! The superior-grade spirit weapon, Yang Lei Sword, has been upgraded to a yellow-grade spirit treasure, Yang Lei Sword, at the cost of 150,000 spirit stones!]
The next moment, Chen Yang felt the sword in his hand become heavier and larger!
At the same time, the golden light on the sword body became inward, completely gathered into the sword body, and the engraved array patterns became clearer and deeper.
Chen Yang held the Yang Lei Sword and lightly touched the ground!
"Boom!"
A massive bolt of purple lightning struck down, instantly blasting half of the arena into a deep crater!
Chen Yang was startled.
Although I knew that spiritual treasures were powerful, the power of this Yang Lei Sword was just too heaven-defying after I used the Purple Thunder Refining God Technique!
He swallowed hard, his heart filled with ecstatic joy!
At this moment, he looked up to the west and saw three figures rushing towards him at high speed, all of them possessing the strength of the ninth level of the Golden Body Realm!
Chen Yang leaped onto a pillar and coldly looked at the three of them.
The three moved extremely fast and arrived at the Fighting Casino in the blink of an eye. They were startled when they saw the ruins before them!
They were especially stunned when they saw the corpses of Han Penglei and the others on the ground!
The middle-aged man at the head of the group turned to Chen Yang, quickly cupped his hands in greeting, and asked, "Young master, what has happened here?"
Chen Yang glanced at the man, who was in his forties, had a square face, and seemed fairly upright. He asked directly, "Who are you? You must be the casino protector Han Penglei mentioned, right?"
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man quickly waved his hand: "Young master, please don't misunderstand! I am the city lord of Weijia City, my name is Li Shouren!"
"To my shame, I was ordered by His Majesty the Great Ming to manage Viga City, but unfortunately, I am not strong enough to be a match for people like Han Penglei, so I have become a city lord in name only."
"Now that Han Penglei is dead, I am truly uneasy. If Han Penglei's sworn brothers were to arrive, I fear the city of Weijia would be plunged into chaos!"
Chen Yang turned to Li Shouren and asked, "You're saying Han Penglei has a powerful backer?"
Seeing that Chen Yang was from the Ming Dynasty, Li Shouren felt somewhat relieved and stepped forward, bowing again: "Young master, you may not know this! Han Penglei is a cultivator at the Great Perfection of the Golden Body Realm. He also has a sworn brother, the chieftain of the Black Eagle Tribe of the Great Manchu Kingdom, named Meng Keduo!"
"Monkdo is incredibly powerful, already at the half-step Foundation Establishment stage. He and Han Penglei practically control the casino business in Vega City!"
"Now that Han Penglei is dead, if Meng Keduo finds out, he will surely lead his men into the city to seek revenge!"
At this point, Li Shouren sighed, "In the end, I was simply too weak; I was no match for Monkdo and his men..."
Chen Yang nodded and said calmly, "Alright, if Monkdo comes seeking revenge, just tell him my name is Chen Yang and that he can come directly to me."
Upon hearing the name "Chen Yang," Li Shouren was startled and exclaimed with delight, "You're Chen Yang? The Qingzhou City Lord whom His Majesty admires most?"
Chen Yang nodded: "Yes, I am indeed the city lord of Qingzhou City."
Li Shouren instantly felt much closer to Chen Yang and quickly said, "I didn't expect City Lord Chen to be so young! We are both city lords. Although my city, Weijia, is larger than Qingzhou, I've managed it terribly, while you have become His Majesty's most capable assistant!"
"I heard that the Iron Wall's formation was repaired thanks to the iron ore you provided. That's truly impressive!"
Chen Yang smiled and then asked, "By the way, Lord Li, are you familiar with the sword in Han Penglei's hand?"
Li Shouren quickly replied, "Of course I know! His sword is a top-grade spiritual weapon with immense destructive power, capable of unleashing fire and lightning! Moreover, when used together with another sword in Monkdo's hand, its power will be even more terrifying!"
"The two of them previously joined forces to kill two other cultivators at the Great Perfection of the Golden Body Realm in Vega City!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yang's eyes lit up instantly. He hadn't expected to obtain the whereabouts of the other half of the "Yin Yang Thunderfire Sword" so easily!
He laughed and said to Li Shouren, "Alright, thank you for informing me, City Lord Li! Don't worry, I will help you resolve Meng Keduo's troubles."
Upon hearing this, Li Shouren was extremely grateful and quickly bowed, saying, "If Lord Chen can truly eliminate this great threat, Monkdo, I, on behalf of all the people of the city, will be eternally grateful to Lord Chen!"
Chen Yang immediately replied, "Yes, you should thank me. Do you have any spirit stones or anything like that? I see your Vega City is quite wealthy; you must pay a lot of tax revenue every year, right?"
Li Shouren hadn't expected Chen Yang to be so direct, and gave a wry smile: "Lord Chen, you jest! Although Viga City is prosperous, I'm only the nominal lord. Han Penglei has taken all the city's wealth, and most of it has been given to Meng Keduo!"
"To be honest, Han Penglei really deserves to die. He earned spirit stones and then supplied them to the Manchu Kingdom, which was at war with the Ming Dynasty. That was clearly aiding the enemy!"
Chen Yang laughed and said, "Alright, I'll be going now. You can clean up here."
After saying that, he took a step and quickly returned to the Yingbin Inn.
Li Shouren watched Chen Yang's dashing figure, his heart filled with envy.
Back at the inn, three old eunuchs were sitting in the lobby waiting for Chen Yang. When they saw him return, they immediately got up and asked him with concern.
Chen Yang waved his hand: "Don't worry, everything is fine. You all continue to rest. We'll set off for Steel City first thing tomorrow morning."
Afterwards, Chen Yang returned to his room.
Inside the room, Ujina was wearing Chen Yang's loose robe and sitting on the bed waiting.
Her long, jet-black hair was casually draped over her shoulders, and the loose robes she wore accentuated her slender figure.
Upon seeing Chen Yang return, Ujina jumped up excitedly and rushed forward, asking with concern, "Chen Yang, you're finally back!"
As he stood up, his long robe swayed.
Chen Yang couldn't help but glance at her a few more times. He hadn't expected that Ujina, dressed in his own clothes, would be even more alluring than when she was naked.
Ujina seemed oblivious, skipping over to Chen Yang and gently hugging his arm, her cheeks slightly flushed: "Chen Yang, you saved me again, thank you so much!"
"I'm so sorry about that. I thought you were going to molest me. I was being petty."
Chen Yang quickly shook his head: "No, you're quite shrewd, you're making me almost lose control. You should change into some normal clothes, you're looking a bit too conspicuous like this."
Ujina paused, then covered her mouth and laughed: "I'm not worried, so why are you?"
"Besides, didn't you see everything when you saved me?"
After saying this, Ujina's face instantly turned bright red. Clearly surprised by her own words, she quickly turned away, saying, "I won't say it anymore, it's so embarrassing!"
"Anyway, I just want to thank you. In our Great Manchu Kingdom, the most popular stories are those of heroes rescuing beauties from your Great Ming Dynasty."
"You saved me twice in a row. I'm really touched. I feel like the leading lady in a play. I'm so happy."
Chen Yang didn't expect Ujina to be so direct, and quickly interrupted, "Okay, okay, stop talking, or it'll really turn into a story of a hero saving a damsel in distress and the beauty offering herself in return."
Ujina blushed, covered her mouth, and chuckled, but didn't say anything more.
Chen Yang changed the subject and asked, "By the way, since you're from the Great Manchu Kingdom, have you ever heard of the Black Eagle Tribe or a person named Monkdo?"
