There were three cultivators in the forest. Chen Sheng who had kept his sword in its sheath looked toward the teenager whom he had seen by the river earlier that day. Chen Sheng was interested to know him, and he cracked a smile when he saw Li Fuyao holding a wooden stick in his hands.
Qing Huai, the snake demon was unfazed and did not portray any emotions. Mr. Yan from Yanling Confucian Temple, on the other hand, quickly figured things out and just looked at the teenager without saying a word.
Li Fuyao was holding a wooden stick and his arms were trembling. He looked pale but he was still staring at Chen Sheng who had already kept his sword.
Li Fuyao took a deep breath and took a step forward.
Chen Sheng started to develop some interest in him and looked at the wooden stick that was in his hands. He smiled and asked, “Young man, are you that snake demon’s friend? Have you decided to risk your life for her?”
Li Fuyao did not look over to Qing Huai nor did he look at Yan Yu. He just fixed his gaze on Chen Sheng and was silent for a moment. He took a deep breath and said, “I've heard that swordsmen loved to kill demons. However, I wonder if you are a person who kills a demon as soon as you see one, or do you find out whether it is a good or evil demon first before drawing your sword?”
Chen Sheng let out a laugh. “Reasoning has never been my strongest suit but come to think of it, I must give an explanation for drawing my sword in front of a teenager.”
As he was talking, Chen Sheng turned his head and threw a glance at Yan Yu. Yan Yu understood what Chen Sheng was hinting at and quickly made a fist-palm salute. “Senior, this demon has struck two of the pedants in my Confucian Temple first but it got seriously injured after that, so it fled here. The temple then ordered me to capture this demon but who knew this demon had such a magic tool. Fortunately, you’ve struck it down before it did anything violent.”
Chen Sheng snickered, “The two pedants in your temple can’t even defeat a small snake demon which just entered the Fundamental Stage? Has Confucianism started to decline after 6000 years?”
Yan Yu smiled awkwardly and did not reply to him. Not only him, even the Yanling Confucian Temple would have to treat such a swordsman who could kill that python with just one slash with great respect. How would Yan Yu dare to offend him?
Li Fuyao leaned against Qing Huai and said, “Mr. Yan, to my knowledge, it should be the Confucian Temple who struck first and Qing Huai only counterattacked to defend herself. So, Qing Huai is actually not to be blamed.”
Li Fuyao had lived with Qing Huai for a while so it was natural that he knew about this. However, he was afraid that after explaining it to Chen Sheng and Yan Yu, Yan Yu would just refute it so that he could get rid of Qing Huai. After all, between him and Yan Yu, it was obvious whose words the swordsman would believe.
However, Li Fuyao quickly realized he had been worrying for nothing. Although Yan Yu looked slightly upset, he did not refute and just admitted, “The two pedants in the temple have indeed offended…”
Chen Sheng waved his hands and did not want to hear more about it. He did not have the mood to tease the teenager anymore. “Fine, if the other cultivators in this world found out I, Chen Sheng, was bullying a small demon who had just entered the Fundamental Stage, they would laugh their heads off. I can’t be bothered by such a small demon but you have some guts. You have yet to step into the cultivation path and even saw me drawing my sword but you still had the courage to speak up for that small demon. Although this courage cannot be compared to mine, it is still hard to come by.”
Li Fuyao did not listen to any of Chen Sheng’s boasting while Yan Yu had memorized ‘Chen Sheng’ these two words. He wanted to consult the temple’s pedants regarding this swordsman once he returned to the temple. After all, there weren’t many swordsmen in this world and those who had such cultivation were even rarer. If any one of those swordsmen had appeared, the people from the three religious sects would definitely record it down.
Li Fuyao let out a sigh of relief and turned to look at Yan Yu. Since Chen Sheng no longer had any intentions of attacking, then Yan Yu was the only one that was dangerous at the scene.
Yan Yu sighed. “If it wasn’t for this senior, I would’ve lost my life already. So how will I dare to attack again? The grudge between Miss Qing Huai and the temple has been settled and once I return to the temple, I will surely convince the pedants in the temple to let go of this matter.”
Once the two of them had agreed to bury the hatchet, Li Fuyao felt relieved and walked to Qing Huai’s side. Her face which just started looking livelier had turned pale once again but he did not say anything and just smiled at her.
There were no emotions on Qing Huai’s face and she just uttered, “Fool.”
Chen Sheng had no interest in watching the both of them act coquettishly so he just turned around and left. However, just after he turned around, he noticed the teenager had been staring at the sword around his waist.
Chen Sheng who had initially lost his mood suddenly felt like having a chat with the teenager.
“What is it? Do you want to have a look?”
Li Fuyao shook his head as he did not want to cause any unnecessary troubles.
Chen Sheng just furrowed his brows. Since the teenager had rejected his offer, he had nothing more to say. However, just when he was about to leave, Qing Huai shoved Li Fuyao out and he staggered to the front of Chen Sheng.
“This fellow has a decent talent and he was almost accepted into the Confucian Temple. Do you want to see if he has any sword fighting talents?”
Chen Sheng disagreed. There were many people in this world who were suitable to become a cultivator of the three religious sects but how many could actually become a swordsman?
One of the reasons the swordsmen were scattered was because many experts had died and their exquisite swordsmanship died out with them. However, the most important reason of all was that becoming a swordsman was far harder than becoming any other cultivators. However, if a person with the right talent was discovered by a swordsman, he could be led onto the path of swordsmen.
Before Li Fuyao could come to his senses, Chen Sheng grabbed his wrist.
After a while, Li Fuyao noticed this disheveled, middle-aged man had a smile on his face.
Yan Yu had an unpleasant look on his face.
The middle-aged man had only wanted to take a quick glance at him but as soon as he held Li Fuyao’s wrist, he had a stern look on his face. He only took his hand away after 30 minutes, and this middle-aged man who had been by himself all these while suddenly licked his lips, as if he had just discovered something rare.
He looked at Li Fuyao and asked, “Are you thinking of going on the cultivation path but you are not willing to go to the Confucian Temple?”
Li Fuyao looked at the man with a serious look and kept quiet for some time. After that, he only replied with a yes.
The man smiled vibrantly with the radiance of a flower.
However, the smile only made Li Fuyao feel terrified.
He smiled and said, “You will be parting with the cultivation path if you are not willing to go to the Confucian Temple in the Yanling Region. However, you have to open up a new road if you want to go back on that cultivation path, am I right? So, you should think about the other possible roads. What I’m saying is, do you want to learn sword fighting from me?”
The middle-aged man did not look like a swordsman who dared to kill a Revelation Stage demon in the Demonic Land at all when he said that. Instead, he looked like those swindlers found at the roadside in the capital.
Yan Yu almost couldn’t restrain himself from cursing when he heard that. He was the one who found Li Fuyao first and he had been trying to think of ways to bring Li Fuyao back to the temple. However, before he could even make his move, a swordsman had laid eyes on Li Fuyao, and the most absurd thing was that the teenager would be able to learn sword fighting.
Many years later, Li Fuyao was not a teenager anymore. But when he stood on an isolated peak and thought of that man who led him to learn swordsmanship, he still couldn’t help laughing.But at the moment, Li Fuyao had to think about how capable the middle-aged man was, who had a heavy moustache and was in front of him before deciding if he would learn swordsmanship from him.Late in the afternoon yesterday, he had seen Chen Sheng in the forest cut off that python’s head with his sword at one blow. Earlier, he found the rope Chen Sheng had made with willow leaves on the bank of the Baiyu River. The two things were enough to prove that Chen Sheng was not weak.He was even quite powerful.Under the sun early in the morning, Li Fuyao sat under the eave in his courtyard. In front of him, Chen Sheng looked at this teenager, with a big smile on his face.Chen Sheng stared at Li Fuyao who kept silent for a long time. Then he g
Watching the scenery described on the book was different from walking on the way in person, so when Li Fuyao wasn’t satisfied with what he heard of and started to take actions, he found the way was difficult to walk on. Although he was mentally prepared, he felt surprised.Chen Sheng led him to the way to practice, or rather the branch road. In Chen Sheng’s opinion, the way of swordsmanship was a rugged path, so when he took Li Fuyao to walk, he didn’t brag but told Li Fuyao that it would be difficult to walk on this path in the future.How difficult it was depended on what he felt, so Li Fuyao was wise and didn’t ask this question.Therefore, since Li Fuyao agreed to walk on this road, Chen Sheng kept making things difficult for him. This middle-aged man who looked easy-going at ordinary times was serious when he taught somebody swordsmanship.He told that teenager who didn’t know what swordsmanship was to stab one thousand times
“Li Fuyao, I am going to Liangxi, but I can walk with you to the border of Yanling. Get ready, and we will set out in a few days.”The next morning, as soon as Li Fuyao stepped out of his room after waking up, he saw Qing Huai. She said that with no emotion, which surprised him.But Qing Huai didn’t speak much and turned to leave after that. Chen Sheng was sitting on the stair and looking at Li Fuyao.Li Fuyao thought for a while and soon came to sit next to him.Chen Sheng was not that kind of old tutor who would like to explain something with a long speech. On the contrary, he was best at killing demons or people with a sword.Otherwise, why would he have killed that big demon in the Revelation Stage with a sword alone?So when Li Fuyao was sitting beside him, Chen Sheng didn’t keep anything from him but said straightforward, “You are in a very low stage, and I am afraid you will suffer on the way. It ha
On the third day after Chen Sheng left, Li Fuyao packed up and closed the courtyard door.Standing at the door, Li Fuyao carried a large bag and laughed in a low voice, “Maybe I won’t come back in the future. In the past, I always thought Baiyu Town is really small and I could wander everywhere in a short time. But now I am unwilling to leave here.”Qing Huai had nothing in her hands and ignored him. She just held her chest with both hands and looked the small courtyard up and down.After they walked less than one hour, they would go out of this town. Li Fuyao turned his head and looked at this small town for the last time under the morning sun and then left.There was an official road outside Baiyu Town, and it was the only way to the outside world, so they chose this road. The Sword Mountain was on the border between Yanling City and Dayu, and it was in the north of Dazhou Empire. Therefore, on this trip, Li Fuyao planned to walk
The young scholar was going to the ghost Zhuyu Town, which made Li Fuyao’s expression a bit unnatural. Finally, Qing Huai had some interesting ideas. Then they returned to the Zhuyu Town. On the way, it was obvious that the young scholar’s spirits rose. He was talking all the way. And he just let Li Fuyao know the ins and outs of the matter.It turned out that the young scholar had a girl friend who grew up with him together. The two originally loved each other. They had already made a deal that they waited after the scholar went to the capital to take the examinations and then they got married. But no one knew why the woman married far away to Zhuyu Town after the scholar left the village. The scholar returned from the exam and learned of this. So he raised a machete in preparation for coming to Zhuyu Town to grab his girlfriend back.Speaking of this, Li Fuyao really admired the young scholar. But because he made Qing Huai stop and go to Zhuyu Town, Li Fu
In everybody’s opinion, it was not a small matter to break a mansion’s gate for no reason. A mansion’s gate was the dignity of a family. After being embarrassed, that family wouldn’t look happy anyway.But now, what happened was that Qing Huai broke this mansion’s gate and entered it boldly, while nobody in the large mansion came out to stop her.Li Fuyao was petrified. Seeing that Qing Huai was going to get out of his sight, he hurriedly stood up and jogged to catch up with her. She had told him that Zhuyu Town was not safe, and he didn’t dare to get away from her.But he turned around and glanced at Huang Jin who sat on the stair in a daze. Li Fuyao quickly pulled him up and followed Qing Huai into that mansion.They rapidly walked a few steps and passed a short path. Li Fuyao finally saw Qing Huai’s back in front of a pavilion. He heaved a sigh of relief and stopped. Huang Jin took deep breaths and asked in a low voice, “Mr. Li,
Huang Jin was obviously not a man who was disloyal to love, and he was not even a bad man. He studied hard for so many years in order to be outstanding. And the reason was that he did it for this female ghost in red in front of them and wanted her to live a better life after marrying him.Thus, Huang Jin could bring a machete which he had never used to snatch a bride in Zhuyu Town. It was rare for a scholar to pick up a machete, but Huang Jin didn’t care for the sake of this woman. However, when he faced death, he might be willing to die, but as somebody asked abruptly, he would be scared. So it was not his fault to shake his head.But women didn’t like to listen to reasons, and perhaps this female ghost didn’t like to, either.Li Fuyao grabbed the machete and looked at the female ghost whose face turned ferocious. He cautiously kicked Huang Jin’s back, but the latter didn’t stand up after coming back to reality. Huang Jin just stared at the fe
On the roof of a house in this mansion in the deep of an alley, Qing Huai who disappeared as soon as she entered the mansion was sitting and looking at the pavilion in the distance with a smile.Next to her, there was a young woman in a cloth dress whose face was pale but looked peaceful. In the daytime, she still held an oil paper umbrella and covered herself under it. Now she was sitting idly on the roof with Qing Huai, a teenage girl dressed in black clothes.After Qing Huai called “idiot”, the woman whose name was Hehua showed a faint smile. Seeing that Qing Huai still didn’t plan to leave after calling, she asked in confusion, “Qing Huai, why don’t you go to help him?”Qing Huai looked emotionless, “I have to let him experience the danger in the human world. Otherwise, such a boy from a small town would be bullied when he is out.”Hehua covered her mouth and chuckled, thinking, “Qing Huai, you look so young. Why do you speak l
When one makes up one's mind to kill someone, it is actually much easier than even before.You don't have to care about anything else, as long as you give full play to your strongest strength, all you have to do is to kill the other party.Li Fuyang's sword nineteen swept towards Qiushu, buying him little time, so he could only settle the fight with Sheng Yuan in the shortest possible time.That was why Li Fuyang's very first sword was an all-out effort.It's called opening the door.The sword light in the sky went towards Sheng Yuan, the sword qi was like a big net wrapping Sheng Yuan in it, Li Fushang's hand holding the sword didn't tremble at all.It was a matter of life and death, and he seemed calm.It was just that he had still misjudged Sheng Yuan's realm, and killing was not a simple matter.Even if you think it's not hard.Sheng Yuan's sword was a long sword with a ghastly white blade, and there were some weird patterns
Between swordsmen and swordswomen, they should have been divided by their sword cultivation.After Li Fuyang handed out a sword, he immediately handed out a second sword before that one sword qi was about to dissipate.This kind of sword striking before the old qi had been exhausted and the new qi had not yet been born was not something that an ordinary swordsman would be able to do.Fortunately, as early as before, the three master uncles at the foot of the Sword Mountain had taught Li Fushang, so that he could do this, it was not particularly difficult, on the contrary, it was Qiu Su, although there was a master teacher, but that master teacher had not really taught him that seriously.Therefore, in this instant, he was quite a bit worse than Li Fuyang.With this sword, a large gash was torn open in his belly.Only not half a drop of blood came out.The reason was still because there was still a sword qi seeping in there in the small of hi
Autumn is fading away.Demon soil climate than the mountains and rivers, is really much colder, counting the days, it should have been late fall, but Li Fushang this way towards the Qingtian City, has caught up with several small snow.By the time he had traveled a little more than half the distance, at the moment of dusk, he was greeted with his first heavy snowfall in the Demon Lands.The snowflakes drifted down like goose feathers, and soon the shoulders of Li Fuyang, who was reluctant to use his sword qi to drive away the snowflakes, were covered in white snow.As for Feng Lu, there were even snowflakes hanging all over his body.A man and a donkey walked along the riverbank with a calm demeanor.Li Fuyang this time traveled to that Qingtian City where it was expressly forbidden to engage in private fights, he didn't walk fast, in fact, from the words of Qing Tianjun, Li Fuyang knew something, one thing he could be sure of was that before he a
In the battle in the wine shop, before the woman selling wine said those words, the situation was tilted towards Qiu Feng Man and Sheng Liang, but after the woman selling wine came in and said those words, the situation started to tilt towards Chen Sheng.Sheng Liang's sword began to slow down, while Qiu Feng Man's sword was as it always was.The two senior brothers were both geniuses on Sword Mountain back then, their natural talent needs no introduction, if it wasn't enough, it wouldn't be enough to let Old Ancestor Xu Silence personally take in a disciple.One must know that at that time, Xu Silence was still the one considered by the world to be the most likely to become a Sword Immortal.Qinghuai didn't let Chen Sheng die because he didn't want to make Li Fuyang sad.Sheng Liang wanted Chen Sheng to die in order to live a more comfortable life.Once he realized that killing Chen Sheng himself would most likely kill him, he developed other emo
There was destined to be a big battle in the wine shop, three Chao Mu Realm swordsmen combined, even a Spring and Autumn Realm cultivator wouldn't dare to mess with them at will, if it wasn't for that talisman, I think the battle would have been even more noticeable.It's just that the striking consequence is also death.If you move your weapon in Qingtian City and are so blatant, you will naturally die.Qing Tian Jun's temperament was like the thick fog in this Qing Tian City, it was impossible to see.But since it was his word, it was the biggest rule in this Qingtian City.Qinghuai stood at the entrance of the liquor store. After hesitating for a long time, he finally didn't walk in, even though he knew that the young man he cared about was being counted on. Even knowing that there would be two Tai Qing Realm cultivators who were going to take his life.Her man, who was supposed to have the ability to eliminate all difficulties, was supposed to
The sword light was the sword handed out by Chen Sheng.Even though he had been drinking for days and reeked of alcohol, the moment he picked up his sword, he was a proud and powerful swordsman.His realm had long been on the verge of leaving the morning and evening and moving towards spring and autumn, only that it had never been revealed.At least no matter how you looked at it, he was in a much higher realm than this tall man in front of him.Besides, he was only standing within a foot of him.Within a foot in front of the swordsman is dead ground.Thus, when that sword light was born, Chen Sheng saw the fear in that tall man's eyes.He was amazed at Chen Sheng's kendo cultivation, and he hadn't thought that Chen Sheng would really draw his sword.This is Green Sky City, not some other place.It was a good thing that the sword light was heading towards his neck, but it ended up falling to be stopped by another sword.The
Qingtian City's autumn, the climate is strange, obviously before a few days are still high sunshine, these two days will be the autumn wind whistling, the temperature plummeted.Even yesterday night, there was a modest snowfall, only the snow is too small, has not yet paved the streets with snow, wait until after the light of day gradually rise, raise your eyes, you can only see the slightly wet ground.There is no other special light.Qingtian City, which entered the autumn light, was the foggiest time of the year, and before noon, the whole city would be covered with a large rainy fog.The city is not without realm cultivation not bad cultivators, not can not dispel this layer of rain and fog, but the fog covers the Qingtian City, who do not know if it is the Qingtian Jun deliberately, who dares to arbitrarily dispel this city full of fog?Located in the city of that restaurant, originally not many drinkers, now Qingtian City more so many people, thin
In the city of Luoyang, the fall rains continue.This is already do not know is Cheng Yusheng the first time to sit on the threshold of their own home to watch the autumn rain, in the beginning back to Luoyang City in those days, this Cheng family young master because like a certain woman, but not the other party to like, to be dazed will take a string of sugar gourds to a certain little girl's home, in her home on the threshold of the seat, the two people, eating sugar gourds.The little girl Li Xiaoxue will not think of anything big, but it is he Cheng Yusheng will be for his favorite girl despondent and lost in thought.Now that some years had passed, although he had always still thought about that girl, and from time to time he would still go to that mansion to look at the peach blossom tree that she had planted back then, he hadn't actually fallen that deeply into it.Besides, he, the knife hugger, really didn't have much time to spare.Ever since
Re-carrying the sword box out of the already devastated Green Rune City, Li Fuyang, soon returned to the city outside the boulder before the previous stone on the Green Rune City three words, before Li Fuyang into the city, the stone on the green word as ink, Fu character half ink, half green, the city word is already completely changed into green.Now out of the city and look again, the three words on the boulder, the color of all faded, leaving only the stone itself traces, looks unusually depressed.As for the two burly men who were guarding the city before, they had already disappeared.In just half a day, the Qing Fu City had a series of great battles, completely changing the appearance of this Qing Fu City, which was built on the banks of the Sang River, and Li Fushang felt a little sigh of relief when he even thought about the time spent on the establishment of this city at the very beginning.More still confused and unaware.Arriving at the dens
