Embers of Sword

Chapter 133

"Ask the sword!"

"Of course I'm asking about the sword!"

The young man spoke loudly and resoundingly, and with a low shout, he drew his heavy sword and rushed straight towards Xie Xuanyi.

Between his eyebrows, a ray of snow-white light suddenly appeared.

This was the manifestation of the initial formation of the cave. Countless snow-white sword qi emerged from the cave between the eyebrows, but did not turn into flying swords. Instead, they seemed to turn into fireflies that accompanied the young man all the way, and finally crashed into the body of the heavy sword.

After running for more than ten feet, the young man suddenly stopped, twisted his waist, raised his hips, and raised his sword at the same time.

Accompanied by a heavy knock of the toes on the back of the sword!
Boom!
The heavy sword broke through the mud and smashed towards Xie Xuanyi.

How can this be a sword?
This looks more like a palm-leaf fan made of pure iron!

Xie Xuanyi stood up, planted his feet firmly on the ground, raised his arms, and tried to block the sword. However, the sword was so powerful that he was knocked to the right a distance of ten feet. Long grooves were plowed under his feet, and even his arm, which was blocking, felt numb.

"Sword cultivator? Martial artist?"

Xie Xuanyi shook his wrist and looked at the young man in front of him with interest.

This little guy must have an amazing physique to be able to wield such a big sword!

last life.

He wanted to practice the two great ways of sword energy, but due to his lack of physical strength, he was forced to give up. In the end, he focused his main energy on practicing flying swords.

There is another kind of sword cultivator in this world.

The sword energy is in harmony with the artistic conception of the Tao.

The self becomes a sword!

Flying sword, invincible at a hundred steps away!

This kind of swordsman is invincible within three feet!

It seems that this little fellow is practicing the latter... However, the sword intent of this sword is better than nothing, and instead reveals a fierce power of "domineering suppression".

"What warrior? I am a swordsman!"

The word "Wu Fu" seemed to have touched the heart of the young man. He raised his head viciously, turned the heavy sword, and attacked again!
Boom!

Xie Xuanyi did not take it head-on this time. He took two steps back lightly, and the heavy sword missed. However, the remaining strength was not reduced. The little guy grabbed the heavy sword and made a second circle.

Xie Xuanyi retreated again.

The third lap.

The powerful energy contained in the heavy sword becomes heavier!

With the support of his strong physique, the young man danced with the heavy sword with great vigor. The sword power gradually accumulated, and circles of sharp sword intent blew up a strong wind on the lawn of Lotus Peak!
Finally, Xie Xuanyi had nowhere to retreat. If he retreated any further, he had no doubt that this fierce-looking young man would directly break through the courtyard of the mansion under the Lotus Peak!
He could only take one step forward.

The seemingly impenetrable sword intent was torn open by Xie Xuanyi.

Xie Xuanyi sent out a palm print.

With a dull bang, the young man's face turned pale and he flew backwards, but his eyes were extremely excited and he ran forward again, pulling the heavy sword!

then--

The second bang!
Immediately afterwards——

boom! boom! boom!
On the lawn of Lotus Peak, a thin and small figure running with a heavy sword rushed towards Xie Xuanyi more than once, and was knocked away more than once. However, every time he flew out and touched the ground, in less than a moment, the little guy immediately stood up and flew towards him again with an excited look.

"..."

After a moment, Xie Xuanyi frowned.

I have to admit that this skinny boy has a high talent for cultivation!

At the age of sixteen, he reached the Golden Body Realm of a Body Refiner, which was no less difficult than the seventeen-year-old Cave Heaven Realm of the Jiangning Prince!
However, there was one thing that made Xie Xuanyi feel strange.

This little fellow clearly has never practiced swordsmanship, yet he insists on saying that he is a swordsman...

Flying backwards every time.

He would always attack fiercely with a heavy sword and an indomitable momentum, and he looked really powerful!

But how can a heavy sword be used like this?
This young man's swordsmanship is full of loopholes.

That heavy sword was like a palm leaf fan, an iron rod, a spear, and a heavy hammer...

all in all.

It doesn't look like a heavy sword.

"How long do you plan to fight?"

Xie Xuanyi was quite helpless.

He was beginning to lose his patience.

The young man in front of him took a completely different path from Jing Qingming.

A flying sword cultivator like Jing Qingming would quickly lose his combat effectiveness once he was hit at close range.

However, the young man was thick-skinned and tough, and unless he took ruthless action, he would not be able to end the battle in a short time.

But the opponent is at the Golden Body Realm after all. Although he seems to be very powerful, there is no killing intent in his moves. He looks like a pure martial arts fanatic.

Ok……

If he were to follow his self-proclaimed identity, perhaps he was a sword fanatic.

"Beat until enlightenment!"

The young man turned over again, jumped out of the mud, stood firmly on his feet, and took a horse stance.

He raised the heavy sword with one hand, pointed the tip of the sword at Xie Xuanyi, and looked determined: "My master said that if you want to break through, you need to play against a 'master'... I looked around, and among all the worshippers in the Dasui Sword Palace, you are the most senior."

"Really? You have a pretty good eye..."

Xie Xuanyi sighed and asked, "Who is the master?"

"Buzz!"

Above the lawn, the sound of heavy swords breaking through the air continued to echo.

The boy plunged the greatsword heavily into the grass.

He raised his head and said proudly and seriously: "Master, thank you Xuanyi."

……

……

Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.

The excitement at Lotus Peak was so interesting… The news that Xie Zhen defeated the group of visitors not only spread to the Jiangning Palace, but also to every mountain on Zhenyin Peak.

Jing Qingming formed a sword formation, fourteen against one, but was still seriously injured by a wooden branch.

This news aroused everyone's interest!
no doubt.

Jing Qingming's "serious injury" was a very good thing for the other twelve cave heavens... After all, only the top ten in this Sword Qi Ceremony could enter the Xuanshui Cave Heaven and compete for the subsequent "good fortune". It was almost certain that the Silver Moon Sect had no chance of making it to the top ten.

However, this battle revealed a more important message——

That is, Xie Zhen’s strength is very likely to crush those cave heavens participating in the Sword Qi Ceremony.

If he is really interested in participating in the fight.

Well... judging from the performance in tonight's battle, it seems that the only one capable of fighting is Jiangning Prince Xie Sheng.

"It seems that the results of Jinao Peak's enforcement will be announced soon..."

"From this perspective, it seems like it's a good thing that Xie Zhen doesn't participate in the Sword Qi Ceremony?"

"But no matter what, I should give everyone an explanation about the Lotus Jade Order."

For a moment, all the mountains responsible for the reception at Zhenyin Peak were talking about it.

Prince Jiangning hopes Xie Zhen will participate in the Sword Qi Ceremony——

The vast majority of people are opposed to this.

Who is willing to face Xie Zhen?
A single wooden branch can easily defeat Jing Qingming. This shows that his combat power is at least at the fifth level of the Cave Heaven, or even higher!
In such a tense and anxious environment, many people choose to wait and see.

They are all waiting for the announcement and notification from Jinao Peak.

……

……

The same goes for flavin.

She had been waiting at Jin'ao Peak for half the night.

After leaving Xie Zhen's mansion, she rushed to the back mountain of Jin'ao Peak... She knew that Qi Lie would bring a group of law enforcers to investigate the matter of the Lotus Jade Order, and she also knew that many people would be watching tonight's farce.

Huang Su knew that this matter would definitely be "resolved".

But maybe all this doesn’t have to be so troublesome.

All it takes is for someone big and authoritative enough to say a word.

Many problems will be solved easily.

The head of Chunyang Sect has gone into seclusion in the mountains... Naturally, there is only one big man with enough authority.

Tongtian Palm Law.

"Master, you should go back." A disciple from Jin'ao Peak walked out from the mist in the back mountain. He bowed and said sincerely, "The back mountain of Jin'ao Peak is a forbidden area. Without the personal order of the head of the law, even you are not allowed to enter."

"It's okay, I'll wait."

Huang Su looked calm.

She knew it.

No one needs to report.

The moment she stood in front of the back mountain, the mountain chief already knew it.

She wants to see you tonight.

And no decree... was the reply from the Lord Advocate.

not see.

"Master Master..."

The disciple from Jin'ao Peak looked very distressed and wanted to continue to persuade him, but Huang Su just flicked his sleeves and signaled that there was no need to say more.

In the entire Dasui Sword Palace, everyone, from top to bottom, knew the stubborn temper of the new Lord of Lotus Peak.

So the disciple shut up obediently, stood aside respectfully, and chose to "waste time" with Huang Su.

Not long after.

Several golden rays of light fell in front of Jin'ao Peak.

As the streak of light descended, the disciple who had been waiting with Huang Su suddenly brightened up with excitement and stepped forward, "Uncle Master Qi... Mountain Master Huang Su has been waiting in the back mountains for a long time."

Jin'ao Peak is the second main peak of Dasui Sword Palace.

The back mountain is a forbidden area, where only the chief monk lives and practices on weekdays.

Over the years, only one person could enter without notifying anyone.

That person is Qi Lie!

The reason why the Chief Lawyer is so optimistic about Qi Lie is actually very simple.

Qi Lie's personality is almost identical to Zhang Lu's when he was young.

Just as strong-willed, just as stubborn.

This action was actually a silent reminder to everyone... in a few years, the position of "Mountain Master" of Jin'ao Peak would be passed to Qi Lie.

Before Qi Lie landed at the back mountain, he waved his hand and dismissed everyone.

He looked at Huang Su and said calmly, "Junior Sister, since Master doesn't want to see you, why do you have to wait so long?"

Huang Su looked at Qi Lie with a slightly complicated expression.

Si Qi called her Junior Sister.

She threw a flying sword in her backhand——

Because the two of them had just joined the Sword Palace, the difference between them was only a matter of time.

She is not convinced.

But Qi Lie called her "Junior Sister", so she had to obey.

Huang Su knew that there were only four true disciples in Lianhua Peak in the past.

Zhou Zhiren, Xie Xuanyi, Jiang Miaoyin, Qi Lie.

Before she and Si Qi were brought to Lotus Peak, Qi Lie was the most favored "junior brother".

"Jin'ao Peak emphasizes 'having a clear conscience.'"

Huang Su raised his head and said seriously, "I have a clear conscience in giving Xie Zhen the Lotus Jade Order, so it is only right that I come to Golden Ao Peak."

"Since you have a clear conscience, you only need to return home and wait."

Qi Lie said softly, "Junior sister, you should know that Jin'ao Peak has always enforced the law impartially...especially for this Sword Qi Ceremony, the chief examiner is me."

"There are some things you don't understand."

Huang Su shook his head: "I want to see the lawyer."

If Tongtian Zhanglu could speak personally and prove that this jade order is in compliance with the law, then all doubts would disappear.

"Junior sister, don't underestimate Jin Ao Peak."

Qi Lie stretched out his finger, pointed at the ceiling, and said slowly: "Perhaps... Master Zhang Lu knows everything?"

This sentence contains a lot of information.

Huang Su was stunned for a moment.

"Junior sister, don't think too much. Go back and have a good rest."

Qi Lie's eyes softened, and he whispered, "...The reason Mr. Zhang didn't see you is not because he didn't want to see you."

"Why do you say that?" Huang Su's eyes flashed with a gleam of brilliance.

Qi Lie extended his hand and gently patted his junior sister's shoulder to reassure her: "The matter about the 'Lotus Jade Order' is just a small matter, and the storm will be settled tomorrow. The master didn't see you because it is not necessary for this matter... In addition, the master needs to meet an important person tonight."

"Big man?"

This sentence contains more information than the previous one.

Huang Su's expression suddenly became interesting.

What kind of existence is the Tongtian Palm Law?

The top figure in Yangshen Realm!

Now that the head of Chunyang Sect is in seclusion, the entire Dasui Sword Palace depends on him to support it!
The "big shot" who could be personally received by Tongtian Zhanglu...

obviously.

There is a high probability that he is also in the Yang God realm.

"Did a Yang God personally visit Dasui Sword Palace during this opening ceremony?"

As the acting master of Lotus Peak, Huang Su is young and has just been promoted to the Yin God realm not long ago, but apart from her own realm, she also has a series of "privileges" of being the master of the mountain, such as the sword energy edict left by the head master, and the top-grade spiritual treasure "Fu Liuyun" and so on... With these privileges, she thought she knew the Dasui Sword Palace like the back of her hand.

But if Qi Lie didn't speak tonight.

She had no idea that such a person had arrived at the Sword Palace!
Even at this moment, standing in front of the clouds on the back mountain of Jin'ao Peak, she didn't feel the slightest sensation in her heart.

"It's not that my brother is hiding it from you."

Qi Lie said calmly: "It's just that the identity of this 'big shot' is inconvenient to reveal."

"Brother, no need to say more... I understand."

Flavin reacts extremely quickly.

In the entire Da Chu Dynasty, including Dali, there are only so many Yang Gods.

Each one of them can be called a "living immortal".

These yang spirits are no longer independent "individuals".

They represent the families and sects behind them.

In this situation, their every word, every action, will attract the attention of countless people... As long as they want, they can easily set off a huge wave in the mundane world.

And now, it can actually be regarded as a special period.

Ten years ago, the head of Chunyang Sect went into seclusion and the Dasui Sword Palace was closed.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that all this is related to the "Xuan Yi Case".

The other party involved in the "Xuan Yi Case" is the Da Chu royal family... When the Da Sui Sword Palace opened, the Da Chu royal family simply sent a message to congratulate but did not send anyone.

No one knows what will happen next.

Before the Da Chu royal family has made their position clear, the truly top figures will not express their views too early.

Perhaps this is the reason why the big shot visited at night?

A series of thoughts flashed through Huang Su's mind. She didn't know if her guess was right... But she knew that a big shot of this level coming to Dasui Sword Palace and staying with the chief lawyer in the back mountain of Jin'ao Peak should be considered a "secret visit."

At this moment, it is indeed a bit rude of me to keep asking for a meeting.

She looked a little embarrassed and quickly bowed to Senior Brother Qi Lie.

"…Anyway, thank you for tonight."

After expressing his gratitude, Huang Su quickly rode away on his sword.

The stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.

Although Senior Brother Qi Lie's previous message was cryptic, the meaning it conveyed was very clear.

It seems that he doesn't need to worry about the Lotus Jade Order... Xie Zhen is really amazing. He can even "deal with" the law enforcement of Jin'ao Peak!
"..."

Qi Lie stared at the sword energy that was moving away on the flowing clouds, shook his head slightly, and walked silently into the clouds on the back mountain of Jin'ao Peak.
