Chapter 696 - Chapter 696 Chapter 581 Its Impossible for You Guys

Chapter 696: Chapter 581: It’s Impossible for You Guys Chapter 696: Chapter 581: It’s Impossible for You Guys Roger had not expected to see the Sword Master Funiu again so soon, even though the other’s expression remained unchanged, Roger could guess that the short sword crafted by Michihiro Morita had sparked his interest.

“What do you need?”

The directness of the Sword Master Funiu surprised Roger.

“The Spirit Skill.”

Roger replied.

“I thought as much.”

The Sword Master Funiu nodded.

“I can give it to you, but please relay to your teacher that you are on the right track, and if you succeed, you might truly be able to assist us.”

“The Spirit Skill is the core of our core in our inheritance; the true mastery of this cultivation method is held only by me and the three great Peak Masters.”

“I need Sword Master Cold Crow’s assurance that this matter must not be revealed!”

The Sword Master Funiu instructed.

Roger nodded his head.

“I will tell the teacher!”

The smooth progress of the matter surprised him, but soon he noticed a slight frown on the Sword Master Funiu’s face, “However, before you leave Qinglu Mountain, I hope you can do something for me.”

“What is it?”

“Help me kill two people!”

Roger was taken aback at first, then looked at the Sword Master Funiu, and shook his head without any hesitation, refusing outright, “I am not an assassin, please suggest another condition.”

The determination on Roger’s face surprised the Sword Master Funiu, who was even somewhat curious, “Aren’t you afraid that I might refuse your request out of anger?”

“That’s a different matter.”

Roger’s gaze remained calm.

First and foremost, just as he said, he was not a butcher who killed for money; moreover, those who could prompt the Sword Master Funiu to speak in the first place would not be lacking in strength, and more importantly.

It must involve certain things, certain secrets that even the power of Funiu Sword Pavilion found inconvenient to deal with directly.

Roger knew that such secrets often signified even greater troubles – it was best not to get involved unless necessary.

“Hah, your current demeanor reminds me of the former Sword Master Cold Crow, a spitting image of arrogance, or perhaps, selfhood.”

The Sword Master Funiu laughed heartily.

“Don’t reject me in a hurry, let me explain the reason.”

Roger remained silent, with an appearance of all ears.

“Not long ago, a branch of the Tengu Shrine, the Konoha Tengu Shrine, sent someone to see me.”

Roger’s brows twitched.

“They sought the same thing as you, the Spirit Skill.”

Roger’s expression did not change much on the surface, but deep inside numerous thoughts flashed through his mind. Although the Tengu Shrine and the goals chosen by Sword Master Cold Crow were not the same,

It was strange that in the specific implementation of their plans, the two had many similarities.

Roger thought of the Ishii Family’s betrayal and the possible schemes of Sword Master Cold Crow. These spanned a long time and involved many characters.

“They showed me some things, some very evil things, and talked about revolutionary changes to the outcome.”

“Honestly, I was tempted for a moment, but in the end, I still rejected them.”

“The people from Tengu Shrine didn’t say much, but what I didn’t expect was that shortly after their departure, they managed to contact two core disciples of Sword Pavilion.”

“To be more precise, it was these two core disciples who found them.”

“Within Funiu Sword Pavilion, private relations among fellow disciples are strictly forbidden. After being discovered, the two wanted to flee the Sword Pavilion.”

“But in Everworld, where is safe?”

“To achieve real peace, one could only leave this world and return to the present world.”

“Now, the methods to leave Everworld are solely in the hands of the few major core shrines and sword pavilions, especially Tengu Shrine.”

“Tengu are highly sensitive to space; they are the foremost in this aspect, so these two decided to steal the Spirit Skill and attempt to trade it for a chance to leave Everworld!”

“Currently, they should still be within the jurisdiction of the Sword Pavilion, and with this incident, we cannot openly search for them.”

“Both of them count as core disciples if we were to dispatch other core disciples, they would likely be detected before they could even get close, which could lead to Tengu Shrine forcibly intervening at that point.”

Upon hearing this, Roger couldn’t help but sigh. The Sword Master Funiu gave him a reason he could not refuse. Even though he did not wish to take lives, at the very least, he could not allow the Spirit Skill to fall into the hands of Tengu Shrine.

Tracking, dispute, battle.

Casualties would be inevitable.

“You are an unfamiliar face, and a thorough search would not draw any attention, and if you discover their whereabouts, you don’t even need to take action.”

The Sword Master Funiu continued.

“Just send out a signal, and leave the rest to us.”

“How about it?”

The Sword Master Funiu inquired.

Several thoughts flashed through his mind, but Roger realized he did not have many options in reality, and given the Sword Master Funiu’s status, it was almost impossible for him to lie about this matter.

So…

“I can do it, but I have a condition.”

“I need all the inheritances of various schools collected by the Funiu Sword Pavilion so far!”

“School inheritances?!”

The Sword Master Funiu’s brow furrowed; the inheritances were of utmost importance for any power. If Roger had asked for Funiu Sword Pavilion’s own cultivation methods, the Sword Master Funiu would have refused without hesitation.

But if it was about other schools…

“I can agree to that, but not all of them.”

The Sword Master Funiu remained very cautious.

“Twenty kinds, I can let you choose twenty!”

“Can I peruse them one by one? After all, I need to know…”

“Young man, do you think I have aged to the point where I lack the ability to think?”
