"Oh, a clone huh? And what made you co to that conclusion?" Song Zun's face had changed to show a weird emotion when Alex guessed that he was a clone.
"You asked if I was a corpse that was strengthened and turned to a clone too, didn't you? That would an that you were either one or were currently using one sowhere else. I would go as far as to guarantee that you are actually the one that is the clone"
"Which ans… your real body is out there sowhere," Alex said with a stunning face. He hadn't realized what Song Zun being a clone ant before he spoke it out himself.
"You… you have a real body sowhere else, and this is just a clone of yours that you made from a dead body. The clones are always supposed to be worse than the original. So, if … if the body that got to the 3rd spot in alchemy achievents and had immortal grade techniques is a clone then…"
Alex got serious and looked at him dead in the eyes and asked, "Who are you?"
Clap Clap Clap
"Bravo little guy. You perfectly figured out everything. Hah, I must be getting old to let slip such an obvious thing, haha. I'm surprised that soone from the Hong Wu sect even knows about clones."
"I don't rember seeing any information about ones in the library. Not to boot, you are a body cultivator, soone impossible to find in the Hong Wu Sect as well," Song Zun said and his face got serious as well.
"So, who are you, and why are you trying to get in my way? What? Are you trying to act like a savior so that you won't have to work hard to get accepted by the people here before you do what you ca here to do?" Song Zun asked.
Alex was surprised at the conclusion Song Zun ca to. 'I can see why he would think that,' he thought.
Song Zun too Alex's silence as an acceptance of guilt. "Well, I don't care what you ca to do here anyway. At first, I thought you had ruined my chances of doing what I ca here to do. But in the end, the exact thing you did send here, the place I wanted to co to, but didn't know."
"You… wanted to co here?" Alex asked. "To find the yang jades?"
"No. I ca to find sothing else. The yang jades were just so interim stuff to get stronger. Was it not for them, This body would've died to your punch just now," Song Zun said with a smile.
"You got stronger after using Yang jades? Then, does that an… you have none of it anymore?" Alex asked in shock.
"Hahaha, not anymore. When I first ca here, this body was weak. However, thanks to a technique of mine, I managed to use the yang jade to temper this body. It was then that I realized that yang jades were extrely important for my body. So after strengthening a bit, I made everyone gather so more in exchange for the food."
"And now, I'm ready to go venture out into the desert and find what I was looking for," Song Zun said. "Who knows, maybe my body will get stronger under the harsh atmosphere there," he said.
"Anyway, why don't you tell why you are in the Hong Wu sect? Maybe I can help you," Song Zun asked.
"Well, I don't know what to say. I am a genuine student of the Hong Wu sect," Alex said.
"Hahaha, who are you lying to? I know the Hong Wu sect has nothing about clones. If you know about clones so much, then you must've learned it sowhere else," Song Zun said.
"Yes, I did learn it from the Tiger sect, but I'm still a disciple of the Hong Wu sect," Alex said.
"Tiger sect?" Song Zun's face changed when he heard that. "I see, then you have to die now."
"You don't get to decide that," Alex said as he prepared his common rank sword.
Song Zun lunged at him with his bare hands, while Alex swung his sword at him. Song Zun easily knocked the sword out of the way and punched Alex.
Alex was using the Elusive Heavenly sword, so he didn't have to worry about dodging the attacks in close combat. A punch to the left, a kick to the right, an uppercut, a horizontal sword slash.
Attacks after attacks were thrown at each other. Alex was too slippery while in close combat, and Song Zun couldn't land a single hit on him.
While, Alex couldn't do any damage, as Song Zun's entire body was as strong as armor.
'Sh*t. Is this guy's skin stronger than my sword?' Alex thought. Song Zun was stopping every single attack with his arms without fear.
Alex swung his sword sideways and tried to hit his chest. Song Zun instead didn't bother blocking and punched towards Alex's head. The sword strike landed cleanly at the chest but didn't do anything to Song Zun. Alex on the other hand easily dodged the punch, making Song Zun hit empty space.
"Hehe, you can dodge quite well… not bad. It's your sword technique, isn't it? So you must really have been to the Tiger sect. I can't believe they let you learn one of their techniques," Song Zun said.
'Huh? Does he know about the Elusive Heavenly sword? Or did he just fight with master and knows of this stuff?" Alex wondered.
Song Zun was starting to get worried. He couldn't keep up the fight with a body cultivator he couldn't hit. If this went on for much longer, he would surely lose. So, he decided to go all out.
"So, you aren't going to back off, are you?" he asked.
"No way. Not until I beat you," Alex said readying his sword once again.
"Sigh, what sort of hot-headed youth did I stumble upon. I guess you can go die now."
