Chapter 1130: Chapter 351: The Great Hero Liu, Part 2

Then he kept repeating this sentence.

It must be said, verbal suggestion has powerful force; explicit words and even verbal urging have even more power.

Liu Jianxin wanted to kneel, but couldn’t.

Suddenly, he recalled Xiao Jianglong’s unguarded manner when they drank and ate together.

Suddenly, he remembered how this fool voluntarily took a knife for someone who betrayed him...

With countless prompts of "The Sword Master lacks the heart of a hero," the word "hero" flashed through his mind repeatedly.

What exactly... is a hero?

Liu Jianxin, disturbed and restless, felt like the voice in his head was forcing him to make a foolish decision.

But for a moment, he thought, if people like Xiao Jianglong were the majority in the martial world, would this world... be a beautiful place?

"So annoying!"

In extreme irritation, Liu Jianxin suddenly lifted the Inconstant Sword and thrust it out fiercely.

The Original Heart Sword Technique is the most simple and unadorned style of swordsmanship, and this strike looked equally ordinary.

But when even Liu Jianxin himself was surprised to find that his sword tip was indeed aimed at Murong Xing...

He suddenly felt a sort of power.

[The hero’s heart has been replenished, Original Heart Sword Technique is fully charged.]

After this playful prompt ended, Liu Jianxin only felt an endless sword intent surging from the Inconstant Sword.

"What the heck..."

He recalled again, that one sword that had killed all the bandits.

Could it be... the Original Heart Sword Technique is truly a terrifying sword technique?

The power of this strike was immense; if Murong Xing had responded with full force, he could have blocked it.

But Murong Xing was distracted; facing Xiao Jianglong, he couldn’t attend to anything else.

Everyone only saw a flash of sword light, with sword intent soaring in all directions, and then a sword pierced through the front of Murong Xing’s chest from the back.

Murong Xing was furious; how was this not following the expected script?

Wasn’t there supposed to be a sword aimed at the unsuspecting Xiao Jianglong? Wasn’t this supposed to show Xiao Jianglong utterly disappointed with the martial world?

He always disliked the phrase "Northern Jianglong, Southern Murong," firmly believing it should be "Southern Murong, Northern Jianglong."

But at this moment, Murong Xing widened his eyes, incredulously staring at the sword tip piercing through him.

And at this time, the Mighty Dragon Repentance had already struck him.

With one palm, his soul scattered.

Murong Xing died.

[You have slain the scum of the martial world, gained the acknowledgment of your sworn brother, the hero’s heart is stirred, and the spirit of righteousness is vast. The Original Heart Sword Technique will remain in an active state.]

The words in his mind thrilled Liu Jianxin.

He began to continually swing his sword, using the Original Heart Sword Technique.

The moves appeared plain and simple, just the basic thrust, flick, chop, and hook.

Yet each strike was imbued with remarkable force and energy fluctuations that left people in awe.

Xiao Jianglong watched in astonishment.

"I didn’t expect Brother Liu’s sword moves to be so unpretentious, yet his inner strength is incredibly deep, probably even surpassing mine!"

"He didn’t leave me during my time of severe injury and crisis, and he even wielded his sword to aid me; truly, a heroic man!"

"So young, yet possessing such power and a chivalrous heart! This martial world isn’t so hopeless after all!"

Xiao Jianglong was immensely excited, forgetting his wounds; he took the wine gourd from his waist, first pouring a drink down his throat, then dousing it on his wound.

The intense pain and excitement filled him with battle intent:

"Brother, let me help you!"

The palm wind of the Jianglong Divine Palm and the sword qi of the Original Heart Sword Technique intertwined beautifully.

The final result of this battle... the Martial Arts Alliance was utterly defeated.

Liu Jianxin’s first experience in the martial world was eradicating bandits; the second was aiding the Beggars’ Gang in repelling the Martial Arts Alliance.

Wen Xishu was not done directing him. He continued to enlighten Liu Jianxin.

[You’ve become the hero of everyone in the Beggars’ Gang, and you decide to speak up for your sworn brother; a gentleman judges actions, not intentions. The growth of the Beggars’ Gang in recent years is all thanks to your sworn brother, so what does it matter if he is a Beihu person?]

[As long as one possesses a heart of righteousness and can lead everyone against the Martial Arts Alliance, that person is good.]

Liu Jianxin thought to himself, "What an idiot..."

"Sword Spirit, are you an idiot?"

"Do you really think the martial world’s issues can be solved with empty words? Do you think saying a few pompous words can solve anything?"

"Why do you think those people were betraying Xiao Jianglong? It’s because he was resisting the Martial Arts Alliance, hindering too many interests."

"Unable to kill Xiao Jianglong, they wanted to find a way to ruin his reputation."

"In the martial world, there is no justice, only schemes."

But inexplicably, Liu Jianxin still decided to give it a try.

After all...

He had already offended the Martial Arts Alliance.

At the very least, he’d need a backer like Xiao Jianglong, right?

And so, the plot that left Liu Jianxin dumbfounded unfolded.

Liu Jianxin shouted: 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

"As long as one possesses a heart of righteousness and can lead everyone against the Martial Arts Alliance, that person is good."

"Brother Xiao deserves no less!"

After shouting this, Liu Jianxin was surprised to find that out of the four great elders, three of the traitors knelt down, slapping their own faces, apologizing to the gang leader.

The rhythmic members of the Beggars’ Gang also broke down in tears at this moment.

Even Xiao Jianglong couldn’t quite believe it...

Could it be there’s such a thing as personal charisma? Previously recounting how he worked for the gang, then taking punishment on behalf of the three elders, was all meant to show that his identity was unimportant, but his actions were what truly mattered.

But everyone just assumed... You’re a Beihu person, a wolf with wild ambitions, coming to Da Xia with ulterior motives.

If the Martial Arts Alliance hadn’t appeared, today Xiao Jianglong would inevitably have to leave the Beggars’ Gang.

But now, after Liu Jianxin voiced these words, why did these people suddenly come to an epiphany?
