Chapter 914 Impersonation
In the southwest of the Bashu region lies a city of moderate size, steeped in a thousand years of cultural heritage. This is Meizhou City, which also belongs to the Shushan region.
Of course, since the establishment of the Shushan Sword Sect, Shushan is no longer under the jurisdiction of Meizhou, or even the Sichuan Provincial Administration Commission, and has become a completely independent entity.
Lin Ping wore a large bamboo hat that covered his entire face, while Jiang Yunying beside him also wore a white veil. The two cautiously entered the city gate.
After killing several members of the three major sword sects, they are likely already on the wanted list.
Even though Qin Yu of the Sword King Sect had already shifted the blame to him, Lin Ping was still a little uneasy. What if the other party had a talented artist?
The soldiers guarding the city didn't even glance at them, and even tacitly agreed that they could bring their longswords inside, which surprised Lin Ping and saved him a lot of money.
Bribing a soldier would cost at least ten taels of silver, and Lin Ping only brought one hundred taels with him on this trip.
Upon entering the city, Lin Ping was startled by the crowds on the streets, not because of its prosperity, but because many people were carrying swords.
This situation has never occurred in Shuntian Prefecture before. Aren't they afraid of disturbing social order?
He finally understood why the soldiers hadn't searched them; the city allowed swords inside.
Before long, the streets became lively, even congested.
"Look, look, it's an arrest warrant!" The curious villagers looked closely at the arrest warrant, but unfortunately, they couldn't read it.
Not only ordinary people, but also disciples from various sects came to join in the fun, having heard about the tragic fate of the three major sword sects not long ago.
"Qin Yu, a disciple of the Sword King Sect, is cruel and indiscriminately kills innocent people. He is wanted throughout the city. Anyone who provides information will be rewarded with one hundred taels of silver!"
The contents of the document were translated, and a portrait was attached below it.
"Providing information will get you a hundred taels of silver, but what if we arrest him directly?"
The bewildered people excitedly said that they would even risk their lives for these rewards.
"Do you know why they didn't mention how much the reward would be for his capture?" someone nearby said dismissively.
The first person shook his head and listened patiently.
"Because apart from the three major sword sects, no one can capture Sword Heart Qin Yu. He is the best of the younger generation of the Sword King Sect." The man continued, clearly having some understanding of the conflicts in the martial world.
"Who are you? How do you know all this?" the first person asked curiously.
"My name is Xia Lielie, and I'm known as the All-Knowing Scholar of the Martial World!" the man said arrogantly.
"So it's the all-knowing scholar of the martial arts world." Upon hearing this name, everyone perked up their ears, clearly wanting to get more useful information.
Bai Xiaosheng enjoyed the admiring gaze and said without reservation, "As far as I know, Qin Yu is so young but his strength has already surpassed that of several elders of the Sword King Sect. This time, he killed more than twenty experts from the three major sword sects, including three elders!"
"They killed more than twenty people from the three major sword sects?" Everyone gasped.
Some quick-witted individuals immediately asked, "So, Qin Yu must be seriously injured. This is a perfect opportunity for us to capture him."
"Capture him? This brother has a death wish. Even if Qin Yu were still alive, he would be beyond our capabilities. Besides, he left unscathed. The three major sword sects are no match for him at all." Xia Lielie boasted.
"Make way, make way, who's spouting nonsense?"
At this moment, a disciple from the Shu Mountain Sword Sect walked over aggressively, kicked Xia Lie Lie away, and said viciously, "If you utter another word of nonsense, I'll kill you!"
This is Meizhou City, the territory of the Shushan Sword Sect. Even ordinary people know what the Shushan disciples wear.
Upon seeing the disciples of the Shushan Sword Sect, everyone scattered like birds and beasts, and Xia Lie Lie also took the opportunity to escape.
“Husband, they drew you so ugly, you don’t look like me at all. I’ll tear up the arrest warrant right now.”
Jiang Yunying said angrily.
She wasn't angry because she was wanted, but because Lin Ping's portrait wasn't handsome.
"Who are you two?" Before Lin Ping could speak, several disciples of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect had already surrounded him, swords drawn and aimed at him.
Wearing a straw hat at this critical juncture is a very dangerous act.
"My lord, their strength is not great, we are confident of victory." Jiang Yunying gripped the hilt of her sword, ready to attack.
Seeing Jiang Yunying's nervous expression, Lin Ping smiled helplessly. This wife is really cute.
This is the territory of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect. If he kills these people, his identity will be exposed, and he will be relentlessly hunted down by the Shu Mountain Sword Sect.
Lin Ping slowly removed his straw hat, revealing a handsome face.
He's so handsome! He looks completely different from the ugly guy in the portrait!
Lin Ping had every reason to suspect that the other party was trying to vilify him.
Of course, it's also possible that Qin Yu actually looks like that.
"Let's go! Keep looking!" The group from the Shu Mountain Sword Sect quickly left, not wanting to waste any more time on irrelevant people.
"My beautiful wife, you're so adorably silly," Lin Ping said with a tender smile. "They're not painting your husband, and besides, this portrait can clear us of suspicion."
"Oh, I see."
Jiang Yunying nodded obediently, just like a child who had made a mistake.
Meanwhile, a few other people in the corner were also paying attention to the arrest warrant.
"Senior brother, it seems you've been impersonated." A stunningly beautiful woman in a red robe smiled coldly, more captivating than a snow lotus.
"It seems the sword manual is also on this person," another man with a cold expression said in an equally icy tone.
The others all glared at him murderously. "Hmph, how dare he frame the Sword King Sect! We'll go kill him right now."
"Don't make any rash moves before you figure out who they are," the leader ordered.
Two days ago, they found the site of the great battle, but did not find the sword manual on Yan Gang.
They initially suspected that the three major sword sects had stolen the sword manual, but after seeing the wanted notice, they dismissed the idea.
If the three major sword sects were to obtain the sword manual, they would be overjoyed and too busy studying it to bother with any large-scale capture of Qin Yu.
In other words, the three major sword sects did not obtain the sword manual at all, and the blame was placed on the person impersonating Qin Yu.
"Wife, are you hungry? Let's go eat." Lin Ping smiled awkwardly, after all, his stomach was rumbling.
Jiang Yunying was also a little hungry, so she followed Lin Ping into a small restaurant.
The atmosphere here is not as tense as on the streets; most of the people here are ordinary folks.
Lin Ping found a corner to sit down, trying to minimize his presence.
But he was wrong. With a beautiful woman like Jiang Yunying by his side, she was a stunning sight wherever she went. How could she not be noticeable?
