Starry Sky Railway: Opening Performance - Taixu Sword God

Following the location described in the post, the ghost-hunting team arrived at the scene.

"Brother, calm down!" One of the Cloud Riders, holding a weapon, stared warily at the other Cloud Rider in front of him.

The cloud rider assumed a fighting stance and laughed wildly:

"I just mastered a new move! I'll use it to cut off your little pecker!!"

"What's wrong with him?" Suddenly, a person appeared beside the two of them.

It was Yan Huan who arrived first.

Seeing that there were still people nearby, the regular Cloud Riders quickly tried to dissuade them:

"Unauthorized personnel must not approach; this place is dangerous!"

"Actually, I'm not exactly an unrelated person either..."

Yan Huan scratched his head and looked at the Cloud Cavalryman beside him who seemed to have a screw loose and wanted to fight:

"For now, let's just call them mercenaries of the Ten Kings."

The ordinary Cloud Cavalryman stared at Yan Huan's face and finally recognized his identity:

"Oh? Mr. Yan Huan, is that you?"

Immediately afterwards, Gui Naifen, Su Chang, and Huo Huo also arrived.

Upon seeing the remaining three, the normal Cloud Rider first stared at Su Chang.

"You are... Su Chang?"

"Is that... the judge? Su Chang, why are you walking with the people from the Ten Kings Division? Don't want to stay in the Cloud Cavalry anymore, are you switching departments?"

"Uh……"

Su Chang said awkwardly:

"Explaining this would be too time-consuming and laborious, let's deal with the immediate problem first?"

Huo Huo quickly added:

"Brother Yunqi, this area is currently under the control of the Ten Kings' Division. Please cooperate..."

"I understand." The normal Cloud Rider nodded, looking worried.

"Please, everyone, go easy on him... especially Mr. Yan Huan!"

"piece of cake."

Yan Huan skillfully bent down, picked up a brick, and hurled it at the frenzied cloud rider.

"boom--!!"

With a loud bang, the Cloud Rider was instantly killed, lying on the ground looking like he was on the verge of death.

"ah?!!"

The normal Cloud Rider was immediately alarmed and shouted:

"Mr. Yan Huan, is he... is he really alright?"

"It's alright, he's still lying on the ground panting."

Yan Huan walked over to the mentally unstable Yunqi soldier and nudged him with her foot:

"Look how energetic it is, it can even move."

"..."

Chapter 501 If Heaven had not given birth to Yanqing, the way of the sword would remain eternally unchanged...

Next, Huo Huo will examine this mentally unstable Yunqi.

Huo Huo squatted down beside him, examined him for a while, and then said to everyone:

"His life wasn't in danger, but his limbs were convulsing and he was talking incoherently, as if he were in some kind of delusional state he couldn't shake off."

At this moment, the cloud rider who was lying on the ground panting and confused finally regained a sliver of consciousness.

"I feel... like all my strength has been drained..."

Huo Huo quickly asked:

"Brother Yunqi, are you alright? Can you answer a few questions for me? Do you remember what happened to you?"

"I vaguely remember some things... Let me recall..."

The cloud rider, whose mind was in disarray, thought for a moment and then pondered:

"We received a report today that there are evil creatures lurking around the Dan Ding Division, so the captain sent me to wipe them out."

"However, what happened next... it was like a dream, it was so strange."

"My weapon suddenly spoke to me... It gave me pointers on martial arts, saying that this move was all show and no substance, and that I was using too much force in that move..."

"It helps me relax my body and lets it help me wield the sword and kill the enemy."

"I understand, it's the spirit of the artifact!"

Yan Huan immediately concluded:

"This kind of plot appears in many fantasy novels. Bro, you've hit the jackpot!"

"As long as you heed the teachings of the spirit, one day you will surely rise to prominence, defeat Jing Yuan, become a general, and be the elder brother of Luofu!"

"Is that so... but I don't quite feel like it is." The cloud cavalryman, his mind in disarray, continued:

"Following its instructions and being commanded by it, I actually felt that my martial arts skills had greatly improved."

"But it said that I was really dull-witted and a piece of rotten wood."

"He wants to take on another disciple so that he can carry on his skills and make them even more widespread..."

"That's when I realized that a child with a sword had appeared beside me sometime during the day, and was staring at me..."

"It's over." Yan Huan said in grief.

"Such a good opportunity, it's a pity we didn't seize it, but it's not so bad."

"If you go over there now and sever all the meridians in that child's body, there's still a chance he'll be chosen by the spirit!"

"Wait, wait, wait! What kind of terrible idea is this?!" Su Chang quickly said:

"There are many children in Luofu who have practiced martial arts since childhood, but if we're talking about a child who can walk with a sword... it's probably that one!"

"..."

Yan Huan fell silent.

On this Luofu Mountain, if you really want to name a stubborn young man who loves playing with swords, you can't think of another one.

The cloud cavalryman, who was incoherent, revealed the answer: "I just realized that the child is actually the general's outstanding disciple, Yanqing..."

"When I heard my sword say that, I was filled with resentment, and somehow... I actually... attacked Brother Yanqing."

"Did you win?"

Yan Huan looked around and continued questioning:

"I didn't see Yanqing around either. You're still full of energy. So you must have chased him away?"

"How could I..."

The cloud cavalryman, still somewhat delirious, sighed:

"He went easy on me. It's ridiculous that I didn't even see his movements before I fell to the ground."

"Then, I saw an extremely strange scene."

"Brother Yanqing seemed to be talking to the sword in his hand, and turned and left without looking back."

"But I... the weapon in my hand never spoke again."

"Oops!"

Su Chang immediately realized what was happening.

The normal-looking Cloud Rider beside him also noticed something and quickly volunteered:

"I'll take care of him, you guys hurry and chase after him!"

Yan Huan immediately led a few people to follow the direction indicated by the delirious Yunqi.

At a secluded corner, Yan Huan suddenly stopped.

What blocked his way was a frost-blue short sword.

It whistled through the air, like a swallow that had lost its way.

As if sensing Yan Huan and the others' intentions, the flying sword quickly approached and circled around them.

"?"

Yan Huan asked in confusion:

"What new type of mechanical bird?"

Su Chang quickly said:

"This is Brother Yanqing's sword. I saw him wielding it during the Cloud Cavalry's martial arts demonstration!"

"I see……"

Yan Huan pondered for a moment and said:

"It seems he's given up on that sword. Times have changed, and it's firearms that are suffering..."

As Yan Huan was talking to herself, the flying sword shook wildly, as if it were shaking its head.

Su Chang then said:

"I heard that Brother Yanqing's weapon is a famous artifact crafted by the Craftsmanship Bureau, and it has a connection with its owner."

"When the master advances, retreats, and dodges, the sword will move as if it has a spirit, never leaving his side."
