The heavens set sail from the courtyard

Chapter 1418 King of Swords
Wang Gang pulled Queen Xia Tian into his inner scene and disappeared instantly.

After the two disappeared, on an official road a hundred miles away from the Southern Jin State, Li Manman drove a carriage and asked the teacher in the carriage: "What is Wang Gang doing?"

The Master leaned back in the carriage and took a sip of wine, then smiled and said, “He wants to train more experts for the Tang State.”

Li Manman was puzzled and asked: "Why did he do that? As long as the Master is here, who in the Tang Kingdom dares to offend him?"

The Master paused, shook his head and said, "I can't protect the Tang Kingdom forever."

Li Manman couldn't help but look back at the carriage, but there was something he never said.

Ever since the teacher met Wang Gang, Li Manman began to notice that his teacher had changed.

In the past, scholars traveled all over the world and were very busy, but they were never in a hurry and always ate wherever they went!
But since meeting Wang Gang, Master's travels have obviously become more purposeful, as if he is looking for someone, but he refuses to say who exactly.

Li Manman was driving with a worried look on his face when he saw a man walking beside the official road. He was in tattered clothes, barefoot, but holding a long sword.

Each step that person took was more than three feet, and his speed was incredibly fast.

"Huh? That person seems to be heading towards the small tree." Li Manman said after looking carefully.

The Master drew aside the curtain of the carriage and looked outside.

"What a great swordsman."

Li slowly said: "Why did Chao Xiaoshu become like this?"

Chao Xiaoshu looked even more beggarly than a beggar at this moment. If it weren't for the faint sword energy emanating from his body, Li Manman would not have dared to recognize him.

"He is meditating on the sword, let's not disturb him." The Master said, lowering the curtain.

"There's no need to turn yourself into a beggar to understand the sword, right?" Li said slowly.

The Master smiled and said, "Chao Xiaoshu has already achieved the state of having nothing else but his sword, so appearance is naturally not important."

Li drove slowly, missing the small tree and heading in the opposite direction.

"It's a pity that we can't see the duel between the two greatest swordsmen in the world," the Master sighed.

Li Manman asked doubtfully: "Master, are we going back to Southern Jin?"

"No need for that." The Master said, "If I show up in Southern Jin, Liu Bai won't be able to calmly duel with Chao Xiaoshu."

Li Manman said worriedly: "Liu Bai is known as the strongest sword in the world. Will Chao Xiaoshu be his opponent?"

"Chao Xiaoshu was definitely not his opponent in the past, and he is still not his opponent now." The teacher said softly.

"Do you want to remind Chao Xiaoshu?" Li asked slowly.

"No, Chao Xiaoshu must go through this battle to fully understand the way of the sword." The Master laughed happily and said, "Young people nowadays are really interesting!"

The carriage went away. Chao Xiaoshu, who was standing by the roadside, stopped and looked at the carriage. Then he stopped paying attention to it and continued on his way, as if there was nothing more important in the world than traveling.

There are four unknown places in the world, which are holy places in the hearts of all practitioners, but in addition to the four unknown places, there is also a holy place for sword practitioners.

It is Jiange of Southern Jin.

The reason why Jian Ge is so transcendent is that Liu Bai, the world's number one swordsman, lives in Jian Ge.

Also because of Liu Bai's existence, the sword is respected in the cultivation world of Southern Jin!

Chao Xiaoshu walked outside the Sword Pavilion and was stopped by two Sword Pavilion disciples.

"Where did you come from, beggar? Get out of here! This is Jiange, not a place for people like you."

He glanced at the plaque of Jiange and said calmly: "I want to see Liu Bai."

"You beggar, you still want to see the Pavilion Master? Get out of here and don't force me to do anything."

It is normal for the Jiange disciples to look down on Chao Xiaoshu. After all, he is no different from a beggar now. People who judge people by their appearance are everywhere.

He walked straight towards Jiange after seeing Xiaoshu, ignoring anyone's attempt to stop him.

"Looking for death." The disciple of Jian Ge reached out to grab Chao Xiaoshu, but before he could get close to Chao Xiaoshu, he was forced back by a burst of sword energy.

Chao Xiaoshu's whole body exuded a compelling sword energy and he walked into the Sword Pavilion step by step, each step being extremely steady.

More and more disciples of the Sword Pavilion rushed out, trying to stop Chao Xiaoshu, but the moment they drew their swords, the swords in their hands seemed to be afraid and trembled constantly.

"How could this happen to my sword?"

Some of the Sword Pavilion disciples with lower cultivation levels took out their swords and stuck them next to Chao Xiaoshu, shaking them slightly as if they were paying homage.

"Stop." A young man stood in front of Chao Xiaoshu. Although the sword in his hand was shaking, it was not out of fear, but excitement.

Chao Xiaoshu finally raised his head. His dark face contained a pair of eyes that were shining black.

"Who are you?" he asked Xiaoshu with interest.

"Liu Yiqing, a disciple of Jian Ge." The young man said proudly, as if being a disciple of Jian Ge was what he was most proud of.

"I know you, Liu Bai's younger brother." He nodded to Xiao Shu and said, "Your sword is pretty good, but it's a pity that you are no match for me."

Liu Yiqing was furious and shouted: "Where did you come from, you lunatic? Die!"

Before the sound disappeared, Liu Yiqing's sword stabbed in front of Chao Xiaoshu.

The swords of the Southern Jin Sword Pavilion are different from the flying sword techniques of ordinary sword practitioners. Influenced by Liu Bai, the swordsmanship of the Sword Pavilion disciples is more like that of ordinary warriors, but with a sharp sword intent.

Liu Yiqing's sword naturally also contained a sense of sword intent, but it was still very immature. He just glanced at Xiaoshu slightly, and Liu Yiqing's sword flew out of his hand and stuck at his feet.

"Impossible." Liu Yiqing was horrified, not understanding how he was defeated and why his sword slipped out of his hand.

He calmly stretched out a finger towards Xiao Shu and gently touched Liu Yiqing's eyebrows.

The next moment, Liu Yiqing felt that he was stabbed by a sword, and even felt a cold touch on his forehead. The finger pointing at Xiaoshu was actually a sword, a sword that had been tempered a thousand times.

Liu Yiqing flew back in a panic, his feet unsteady, and he sat down on the ground.

Chao Xiaoshu continued to walk into the Sword Pavilion, and when he passed by Liu Yiqing, he said something lightly.

"You don't understand swords."

Liu Yiqing stood up in grief and anger, wanting to refute Chao Xiaoshu, but when he saw Chao Xiaoshu's calm and shining eyes, he was completely stunned.

He continued walking towards the small tree. He had never been to Jiange, but he seemed to know the way. He took many turns and finally arrived outside the room where Liu Bai was in seclusion.

In the Sword Pavilion, there is the place where the sword energy is the strongest!

Chao Xiaoshu stood at the door, carefully feeling the sword energy emanating from behind the door. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he decisively reached out and pushed the door open.

The next moment, sword energy like a mighty river surged out of the house, and Xiaoshu was quickly submerged in the surging sword energy.

"Who disturbed my retreat?" After the sword energy, there was an angry voice.

"Little Tree from the Great Tang Dynasty has come to challenge Liu Bai from the Sword Pavilion of Southern Jin."

Chao Xiaoshu's voice came from the monstrous sword energy, unusually deep and powerful, just like his sword.

He pulled out a long sword from the small tree and swung it downwards. The surrounding sword energy instantly dissipated, and only the sword marks around proved the existence of the sword energy.

Liu Bai walked out of the room in white clothes. When he saw Chao Xiaoshu, who was dressed in tattered clothes, there was no contempt in his eyes.

"What a great sword!" Liu Bai praised: "Thousands of long swords have bent because of you. You have become the king of swords! You are qualified to challenge me!"

Chao Xiaoshu put away his sword and said seriously: "Chao Xiaoshu came to Southern Jin from the Tang Dynasty with a sword, just to prove the sword in his heart. Please help me, Sword Saint!"

Liu Bai nodded and said, "Where do you want to fight?"

Chao Xiaoshu said: "Three days later, there will be a battle outside the city."

"Okay." Liu Bai agreed.
