New Disguise and Two Safeguards

(There would temporarily be two updates a day due to upcoming training.)

At first, Chen Yi had not wanted to use the Sword of Killing Intent, but there had been too many coincidences, making him wary.

If he continued using flames, it would be very likely to lead others back to him.

Although Chen Yi was only a Tier 5 "rookie,"

he had taken first place in Tier 4 matchmaking, first place on a Tech Side program, and was currently ranked 69th in Tier 5 matchmaking. (He had not played for a long time, so his ranking had dropped.)

Chen Yi was not bragging, but quite a few factions had definitely taken notice of him.

So, he had to put another disguise on himself. It was best not to use flames, Sealing Jutsu, or even mirrors.

That left only this sword.

Thus, he came up with a new disguise—the Fallen Angel of Killing Intent.

A disguise alone was not enough. It needed strength.

Before the assessment arrived, Chen Yi needed to make this disguise as powerful as possible, at least powerful enough to draw out the mastermind behind the scenes.

Growing stronger around the Sword of Killing Intent did not mean Chen Yi had to wield a sword and slash people.

Believe it or not, Chen Yi only knew one sword move: a downward slash.

Chou Zhongsheng had experienced that firsthand.

Relying on the Flame Demon Phantasm's size and defensive advantages, Chen Yi had wielded a massive blazing sword and repeatedly brought it down.

There was no technique, only overwhelming force.

So, expecting Chen Yi to use a sword and develop some slashing techniques was impossible.

Because Chen Yi did not understand swords.

But Chen Yi possessed a vast amount of knowledge.

His finger lightly rested on the crimson blade.
