Sword Breaks Nine Heavens

Chapter 11: Sudden assassination

   The Ji family is the first forging family in Qingyun, and it is an authority in the forging industry. It is well-known in neighboring countries.

   For so many years, the mysterious sword forged by the Ji family has been praised and sought after by masters of all walks of life, and there has never been a problem.

   Things like returns are very rare.

   It was the first time that goods worth two million silver were returned!

   Ji Tianxing asked Ji Hao with a gloomy face: "Second, what is going on? Who dares to return our Ji's goods?"

   "It's the Gu family." Ji Hao showed his face full of anger, filled with outrage, and said: "The Gu family ordered fifty mysterious-level swords at the Xuanjian Workshop last month, and the negotiated price is 2.23 million."

   "Yesterday was originally the day of delivery. The Xuanjian Workshop in the southern suburbs notified Gu's family to pick up the goods. Unexpectedly, Gu's family had to return the goods and wanted to return the one hundred thousand tael deposit!"

   Ji Tianxing immediately understood that the reason why the Gu family wanted to return the goods must be because of Gu Hao's death.

   He couldn't help but sneered: "Gu's want to return the goods, let them return, don't want to return the deposit!"

   "The mysterious sword forged by our Ji family is well-known in Qingyun Nation, and there is never a shortage of buyers. Gu family does not buy it, some people want to buy it!"

   Ji Hao frowned, and said with some worry: "But brother, this kind of thing has never happened before!"

   "If we really let the Gu family return the goods, after the news spreads, how will others talk and guess? There must be a problem with someone slandering our Ji family's sword..."

   "Brother, I think you should go check it out. This matter is related to the reputation of our Ji family."

   Ji Tianxing thought about it in silence, then nodded and said, "Okay, then I will go there in person."

   After that, he turned and walked out of the courtyard, and asked Jia Ding to prepare the horse.

   Ji Hao quickly followed, "Brother, I'll go with you!"

   A moment later, Ji Tianxing and Ji Hao left Jifu and rushed to the Xuanjian Workshop in the southern suburbs on horseback.

  Xuanjian Workshop is located on a large mountain in the southern suburbs, more than sixty miles away from the imperial city.

   It is not so much a workshop as it is a huge Jijia manor, occupying half of the mountain.

   The Ji family hollowed out the inside of the mountain and built several huge warehouses to store the materials and ore used for the forge.

   There is also an oversized iron-making furnace in the belly of the mountain. When the fire is burned, the sky will be bright red, and the clouds will turn red.

   There are more than 2,000 laborers and forging apprentices in the workshop, as well as more than a dozen forging masters, working for the Ji family day and night.

   In addition, there are more than 300 guards guarding the Xuanjian Workshop, many of whom are experts and a few strong.

   Anyone who sees the Profound Sword Workshop in the southern suburbs will be amazed by the grand scale and momentum.

   It took more than an hour for Ji Tianxing and Ji Hao to arrive at the Xuanjian Workshop in the southern suburbs.

   After entering the workshop, Ji Tianxing directly found the owner of Gu Jian and asked for details.

   Gu Jian is Ji Changkong's confidant, and he is also very familiar with Ji Tianxing, and treats him like a nephew with trust and enthusiasm.

   He knew that Ji Tianxing had become a waste. After seeing Ji Tianxing, he asked a few questions with concern.

   After some greetings, Jian said with a solemn expression: "Master, I personally supervised the construction of these swords. There is absolutely no problem."

   "Gu's returning goods is also a mess and unreasonable play. Now the elders and guards of the Gu's family are still sitting in the hospitality lobby, you see..."

   Ji Tianxing nodded, and said coldly: "In this case, if they want to return the goods, let them return, and the deposit will be deducted."

   "From now on, our Ji family will never sell another weapon to the Gu family! As for the fifty swords, we will find another buyer."

   "Huh, can we not sell the sword forged by our Ji family?"

   Gu Jian originally had the same idea, but this matter is of great importance. Only when the Patriarch Ji Changkong or the eldest master speaks himself, he can implement it.

   Seeing that Ji Tianxing agreed, Jian gave his orders and went to negotiate with the Gu family.

   After dealing with this matter, Ji Tianxing took Ji Hao and left the workshop.

   It was almost noon when the two went down the mountain, and there was no one on the official road down the mountain, but they were galloping along the horse.

   Half an hour later, the two were riding through a green mountain forest.

   Ji Tianxing suddenly discovered that there were a few horsestrips across the official road ten feet away in front of him, blocking his way.

   "Call!"

   Ji Tianxing quickly tightened the reins, trying to stop the galloping white horse under his crotch.

   The white horse made a neighing sound of "Jilulu" and ran seven or eight feet away before stopping before tripping the horse rope.

   The horse that Ji Hao was riding also stopped beside him, and raised his front hoof high, almost throwing Ji Hao off the horse.

   "Second, be careful! I'm afraid there is an ambush here!"

   Ji Tianxing reminded Ji Hao in a low voice, and clenched the mysterious high-grade sword on his waist-the blood dragon sword.

   Ji Hao immediately understood, and he drew out the profound gold sword with a "clang", staring at his surroundings warily.

   At this moment, in the dense woods on both sides of the official road, there was a sudden "clap" sound.

   In the next instant, six warriors wearing black tights and masks rushed out like a gust of wind, waving their swords and leaping towards the two of them.

"kill!"

   The six warriors all rushed murderously, their movements were very vigorous and fast, and they rushed to Ji Tianxing and Ji Hao in the blink of an eye.

   Although Ji Tianxing's strength has fallen to the body refining realm, his martial arts experience is still there, and his vision is still sharp and vicious.

   Only by looking at the movements and speeds of the six warriors, he judged that the strength of these six people is not bad, and I am afraid they all have the strength of refining eightfold.

   "Whhhhh!"

  Six warriors wielded their swords at the same time, and Chao Ji Tianxing and Ji Hao cut.

   Among them, four warriors besieged Ji Tianxing, and only two attacked Ji Hao.

   Watching the sword and sword shadow slash in front of him, Ji Tianxing subconsciously drew the bleeding dragon sword and swept it out.

   In the "clang clang clang" of gold and iron, the four swords were all shaken by the blood dragon sword.

   Ji Tianxing escaped a catastrophe, but was also attacked by the forces of the four men, tumbling and falling under the horse.

   He was bleeding from the mouth of the tiger, and his right arm was also paralyzed, so he couldn't exert any strength.

"kill!"

   The four warriors roared again and stabbed him with their swords.

  In desperation, Ji Tianxing rolled several times on the ground before he rolled to the side of the road.

  Although he made a dusty face, he managed to escape the beheading with four swords and save his life.

   Seeing, the four warriors came over again like a tiger, and he jumped into the woods.

   At this critical juncture, a long sword suddenly shot out from the diagonal stab, and stab him viciously in the chest.

   Ji Tianxing caught a glimpse of the sword from the corner of his eyes, only to realize that the man who had drawn the sword was one of the two warriors who besieged Ji Hao.

   He understood instantly that the target of these six masked killers was him!
