Chapter 1828 - 1829: Kai Family
Ling Zhenfei said, "Stop with the nonsense, if you have something to say, say it quickly. My time is extremely valuable."
The person said, "Alright, our time is also very valuable. My name is Kai Yunhao, you get it, don't you."
Ling Zhenfei immediately understood: "You are from the Kai family."
Kai Yunhao said, "That's correct, I am part of the Kai family. Kai Masao, whom you killed, was my cousin, and Kai Itta is my uncle. Now you know why I'm here waiting for you, right."
Ling Zhenfei said, "I naturally know, but what do you intend to do? Are you here to duel with me?"
Kai Yunhao said, "I do not believe in mere dueling. As they say, no matter how high your martial arts are, you still fear the butcher's knife. It doesn't matter how I kill you, as long as I kill you."
Ling Zhenfei laughed and said, "Many have attempted to kill me, but as you know, I'm still standing here, while they have perished."
Kai Yunhao said, "They are them, but I am different."
Ling Zhenfei said, "In my eyes, there's nothing different about it. I defeated Kai Itta with one stroke and shattered his personal armor, didn't you know?"
Kai Yunhao said, "Precisely because you defeated Kai Itta with one stroke, I have a bit of interest in you."
Ling Zhenfei said, "Should I feel honored?"
Kai Yunhao said, "Indeed, but honor aside, you're going to die anyway."
Ling Zhenfei laughed, "Who gave you such confidence? I was about to leave without wanting to shed more blood, but since you've come to provoke me, I'll show you my power."
With that, a sword appeared in Ling Zhenfei's hand.
Kai Yunhao laughed heartily: "You're playing with swords against me, so I'll show you my might."
Kai Yunhao was carrying swords, two different katanas were hanging on him, one long and one short.
Kai Yunhao's abilities should not be less than Kai Itta's, otherwise, sending Kai Yunhao against Ling Zhenfei would be sending him to his death.
Ling Zhenfei said, "Do you know Watanabe Goryu?"
Kai Yunhao said, "Of course I know Watanabe Goryu. Isn't he touted as a once-in-a-century genius?"
Ling Zhenfei said, "How do you compare to him?"
Kai Yunhao said, "He is a once-in-a-century genius, and I am a once-in-a-generation genius."
Ling Zhenfei said, "Watanabe Goryu also fell to me while injured. I imagine you're not my match either."
Kai Yunhao laughed, "Just because Watanabe Goryu wasn't your match, doesn't mean I won't be your match. We'll see."
Ling Zhenfei recognized that with such confidence, Kai Yunhao must have some capability.
When battling Watanabe Goryu before, though he defeated Watanabe Goryu, Ling Zhenfei had consumed a great deal of Northern Spiritual Energy.
If today he also exhausts a lot of Northern Spiritual Energy against Kai Yunhao, it would be a loss.
From his earlier conversation with Kai Yunhao, Ling Zhenfei saw several things.
Firstly, Kai Yunhao didn't actually have deep feelings for Kai Masao and the others. This time, coming to trouble Ling Zhenfei must be under the family's order.
Moreover, Kai Yunhao should be quite skilled, at least comparable to Watanabe Goryu.
If they fight here, it could very well result in mutual destruction.
Thirdly, Kai Yunhao seems both very powerful and very arrogant.
This arrogance could be heard clearly when he mentioned the names Watanabe Goryu, Kai Masao, and Kai Itta.
With these thoughts, an idea came to Ling Zhenfei.
Ling Zhenfei laughed and said to Kai Yunhao: "Actually, dealing with such people is very simple for me. I think dealing with you should also be very simple, three moves should be enough."
Kai Yunhao laughed heartily: "Kid, are you joking with me? Three moves? You think you can defeat me in three moves."
Ling Zhenfei said, "You surely don't believe it. Although I'm young, I am indeed a once-in-a-millennium cultivation prodigy, several levels above your so-called once-in-a-century geniuses."
After hearing that, Kai Yunhao smirked coldly, "You're so arrogant, thinking you can defeat me in three moves, I can't tell if you're cocky or insane."
Ling Zhenfei said, "Since you say so, haven't you noticed that you've already lost?"
Kai Yunhao was taken aback: "How have I lost?"
Ling Zhenfei said, "I claimed I could defeat you in three moves, and you believed it. Don't deny it, you were worried I might really defeat you in three moves.
Just having that thought means you lost. You hesitated, which indirectly admits you might lose."
After hearing this, the expression on Kai Yunhao's face was not very pleasant, at least his brow furrowed.
"Who said I was afraid of you? I think I can defeat you in three moves too."
Ling Zhenfei laughed and said, "That's interesting. You say you'll defeat me in three moves, I say I'll defeat you in three. Shall we settle it in three moves?"
Kai Yunhao said, "If you can't defeat me in three moves, then what?"
Ling Zhenfei said, "If I can't defeat you in three moves, then you can do as you wish. But if you can't defeat me in three moves, then what?"
Kai Yunhao said, "If I can't defeat you in three moves, then I'll let you go."
Ling Zhenfei was amused, this was exactly what he wanted to hear.
While Ling Zhenfei had no confidence in defeating Kai Yunhao in three moves, Kai Yunhao probably couldn't defeat him either, so he would have to let him go in the end.
Besides, if Kai Yunhao could truly defeat Ling Zhenfei in three moves, Ling wouldn't be able to escape even if he tried.
Ling Zhenfei used a bit of wit and was slightly pleased, raising the Tang sword in his hand towards Kai Yunhao.
"Since it's like this, let's begin, it's getting late."
At this moment, Kai Yunhao's expression became more severe, since there were only three moves, each had to be extremely powerful.
Ling Zhenfei placed his hand on the hilt of the Tang sword, channeling Northern Spiritual Energy into it. He couldn't afford to slack off, so the energy was quite immense.
Kai Yunhao had also placed his hand on his sword's hilt, seemingly intending to attack first.
Among warriors, the sword is considered a part of their lives, so when it comes to real fighting, the first thought is to resolve it with the sword.
Thus, Kai Yunhao instinctively thought of using his sword. If it can be solved with a sword, other solutions are often unnecessary.
The Kai family is a very unique clan; they are a ninja sect, but this sect doesn't focus on assassination.
