Borrowing a sword

Chapter 375 The Secret of the Bronze Sword
High in the air, Han Shuangjiang listened to the conversation between the two and felt somewhat worried about Xiao Xu.

She had a general understanding of Xu Ziqing's abilities.

If she were to use only her left hand to wield the sword, her current cultivation level would be slightly higher than that of Junior Brother Xu. If the two of them were to fight, it would be uncertain who would win.

Perhaps, she has a slightly better chance of winning.

But if you are holding the sword in your right hand
"I have absolutely no chance of winning," Han Shuangjiang thought to herself.

The Yuchi Huaide in front of them was not a cultivator who had just entered the fifth realm.

It is the fourth level of the fifth realm.

In other words, he is a whole level above Xiao Xu!

In addition to the special nature of the fifth realm, Han Shuangjiang felt that Xiao Xu, who wielded a sword in his left hand, was definitely no match for Yuchi Huaide.

"What's more, he's not at peace right now!" That's what Big Ice is most worried about.

Hatred often blinds people.

Therefore, she couldn't help but call out, "Junior Brother Xu!"

Xu Ziqing glanced back at Han Shuangjiang and could roughly guess what she wanted to say.

"Senior Sister Han, please don't try to persuade me. Ziqing knows what she's doing."

The hatred of annihilating a clan is irreconcilable!
He was determined to avenge this wrong with his own hands!

Looking at the scene before him, Yuchi Huaide began to grin maliciously in his heart.

He knew that there was no room for maneuver at this point.

That would mean killing that kid as well to take him down with him!
"How could I have missed that brat back then!" He gritted his teeth, wishing he could travel back in time and tear the young Xu Ziqing to pieces.

Yuwen Huai and Pei Songji exchanged a glance and said, "This..."

As the master of Chunqiu Mountain, one of the four major sects of the Eastern Continent, Yuchi Huaide should be executed according to the sect rules.

In this deadly battle where the odds were so unequal, it was actually the young man who suffered the loss.

If anything were to happen to him, not only would it be difficult to explain to the Taoist sect, but it would also be difficult to explain to the entire world!
“Xu Ziqing is the savior personally chosen by the Dao Ancestor!” Yuwen Huai couldn’t help but glance at the huge sword box.

He had already made up his mind.

If he is no match for Yuchi Huaide later, then I must step in to help him immediately and stand up before Jiang Zhi.

Only in this way can we save face for Chunqiu Mountain.

Otherwise, they will be despised by the righteous path!

"I wonder if this young man is so confident that he knows we won't let him go to his death, which is why he made this decision, or..." Yuwen Huai thought to himself.

Little did they know that Xu Ziqing, with her pure and innocent heart, had no such ulterior motives.

He didn't think much of it.

He wasn't drawing his sword immediately, simply because his senior brother hadn't given the order yet, so he was forcibly holding back.

Chu Huaixu kept his head down, gently straightening his clothes and brushing away any dust that hadn't been on his shoulders.

These caring gestures, like those of an elder brother, calmed Xu Ziqing's heart somewhat.

"Xiao Xu," Chu Huaixu suddenly called out.

"Senior brother," Xu Ziqing replied as usual.

Sometimes I feel that your sword is too heavy.

"You are preoccupied with past grievances and cling to the maxims of the Taoist patriarch. You want to avenge your family and save the world."

"Your senior brother will not advise you not to have any obsessions, nor will he tell you to let go."

"On the contrary, I support your efforts to do these things."

“Even if you might have to pay a price.” As he said this, he took a deep look at the sword case.

The handsome young man was not tall, even shorter than Han Shuangjiang. The huge sword box was on his back, as if he were carrying a mountain.

Upon hearing this, Xu Ziqing raised her head, her face showing a hint of surprise.

He didn't expect that his senior brother had already guessed it.

"As long as you feel your life has been worthwhile, that's enough," Chu Huaixu said in a deep voice.

It’s different in the past.

In the past, he would protect Xiao Xu whenever he could.

But if it's what he truly desires, then he will support it.

Or rather, support through bento boxes!
Xu Ziqing looked at his most respected senior brother, nodded vigorously, and said in a deep voice, "Okay!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he drew two fingers upwards, towards the sword box behind him.
—It's open!
On the flying beast, Xu Ziqing took out a flight talisman from his storage token.

This talisman allows cultivators to briefly fly through the air, bridging the gap between them and great cultivators.

Moreover, his Sky-Soaring Talisman is a high-grade talisman.

While ordinary air-flying talismans allow cultivators to fly, their flight speed is still significantly slower than that of truly powerful cultivators.

Furthermore, it's not sensitive enough.

It is different from the superior-grade Sky-Soaring Talisman.

This is a spiritual talisman that only a master of talismanic arts can refine.

Its flight performance is even better than that of ordinary fifth-realm cultivators.

Legend has it that there's even a chance of escaping from a seventh-realm cultivator. For many, it's a lifesaver.

"But Xiao Xu exchanged for this talisman at the Treasure Pavilion a long time ago, probably to prepare for revenge," Chu Huaixu guessed to himself.

After using the talisman, Xu Ziqing flew towards Yuchi Huaide's direction.

"Yuchi Huaide, prepare to die!!!" The boy's eyes were bloodshot as he shouted.

"You're courting death!" Yuchi Huaide sneered and summoned his natal magic weapon.

It was a sword with a narrow but rather long blade.

There are three hollowed-out areas in the center of the sword.

Every openwork section shimmered with light, with halos rotating around it, displaying red, black, and purple light respectively.

"This sword is called Xuan Guang! It is stained with the blood of your entire family."

Yuchi Huaide continued to provoke the boy, his smile becoming increasingly sinister.

To his surprise, Xu Ziqing, who had been acting like she was about to go crazy, was now acting strangely.

But when it came to a life-or-death duel, the boy, whose handsome features made it hard to tell whether he was male or female, suddenly became ashen-faced, his eyes filled with unwavering determination and endless killing intent!
With a flick of his left hand, the bronze sword in the scabbard flew into his hand.

Yuchi Huaide had long heard that the natal sword of this true disciple of the Daoist sect seemed to be extremely evil.

He seems to spend most of his time nurturing swords.

It won't be used unless it's absolutely necessary.

But once activated, it possesses power surpassing that of beings in the same realm!

"Unfortunately, I'm only at the fifth realm!" Yuchi Huaide only intended to finish the battle quickly.

He swung his uniquely shaped longsword forward with a sudden horizontal slash.

A three-colored sword light instantly appeared in the air.

The sword light was as long and narrow as a sword.

But its power was truly terrifying, as if it could tear the sky apart.

Xu Ziqing didn't even blink, and directly swung his sword forward with his left hand.

This sword strike looks extremely simple, without any specific moves; it's just a forward swing.

As a swordsmanship genius, he seems to have already shown signs of returning to simplicity and authenticity.

Pei Songji, the cicada catcher, watched from the side and couldn't help but marvel.

"Brother Jiang, your Taoist sect is truly blessed."

"Such swordsmanship talent is truly monstrous, perhaps no less than that of the current Sword Master."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhi showed no intention of being modest.

He spoke directly and seriously: "Wrong! That guy from the Sword Sect might not be as good as him in terms of sword talent."

Pei Songji looked helpless, not knowing how to respond to that.

However, Xu Ziqing's seemingly simple sword strike actually had the effect of using minimal force to overcome great strength.

It seems that he had already found Yuchi Huaide's weakness the moment he made his move.

Chu Huaixu was not surprised by this.

"After all, he's a genius who was able to complete the incomplete Earth-level sword technique when he first started cultivating," he thought to himself.

At this moment, he actually saw through some of Xiao Xu's thoughts.

Therefore, he was waiting for something.

Yuchi Huaide looked at the scene before him with some surprise.

He quickly made a decision: a swift resolution was necessary.

In a contest of skill, I might not be a match for this young upstart.

We must rely on absolute strength to crush them!

Therefore, he was preparing to use his most trump card.

—【Six places to leave the ranks】!
"Boy, take a closer look at what this sword strike is!"

In his view, this sword could not only kill people, but also attack their hearts.

Xu Ziqing, however, remained expressionless and ignored him completely, instead glancing up at the sky.

"Father, Mother, Grandma, Little Sister"

After that initial test with his sword, he had already grasped the extent of Yuchi Huaide's strength.

Very strong, extremely strong, truly worthy of being a great cultivator!
But it's not strong enough!
Once he had a clear idea of ​​what to do, he knew exactly what to do.

Since you've used the Six Exits of the Array, you're courting death!
He didn't hesitate at all, because Xiao Xu knew very well that he might only be able to use this sword once more.

However, since he was already eager for revenge, there was no need for anything fancy.

The reason he didn't use the Six-Out Column at the beginning was that he was waiting for the other party to use it.

"Restriction! Open—!"

The next moment, the fifth restriction on the bronze sword, which should not have been broken, was opened.

(P.S.: Requesting monthly votes at the beginning of the month.)
