The crimson sunset glowed on the face of a beautiful woman.

Her face was a charming red, her pupils were bloodshot, and there was a faint smile at the corner of her mouth.

She stared quietly at the tombstone in front of her, and without any hesitation, she dug out the grave.

She comes here every day.

The same thing is repeated every day, covering and uncovering the tomb.

Because she sees Xu Chen every day.

Even if Xu Chen is dead, she wants to see him.

But she didn't see Xu Chen today.

Not only Xu Chen, the coffin was missing as well.

The cemetery is empty.

Even if the tomb was robbed, it wouldn't be so clean.

"Are there any thieves?"

After a moment of confusion, she curled her lips into a charming smile: "Or are you not dead at all?"

16. What kind of genius are you?

"..."

The sword in front of Xu Chen looked like an ordinary sword, but it was not ordinary.

Because that was the sword he gave to Xia Rushuang when he first accepted her as his disciple.

Later, when Xia Rushuang became stronger, Xu Chen gave Xia Rushuang a good sword, which is the sword Xia Rushuang is wearing at this moment.

Unexpectedly, after three hundred years, she still kept this original sword.

Fortunately, he has no spiritual energy now, otherwise the cause and effect may connect him with this sword, and his identity will be completely exposed.

"Master, did you ask me to choose this sword?"

Xu Chen pretended to be completely unaware of the origin of the sword and asked Xia Rushuang.

"What? Don't want to?"

Xia Rushuang then turned around and looked at Xu Chen, her eyes and brows revealing an indescribable indifference.

It was as if he was standing on a high place overlooking Xu Chen.

"I do, of course I do, but I don't know what this sword is..."

"The sword's name is Qingzhu."

Xia Rushuang interrupted Xu Chen and said quietly, "This is the name he gave it back then."

Green bamboo ghost.

Xu Chen didn't name the sword at all. It was Xia Rushuang who came up with the name. She still likes to show off.

He had no intention of complaining about this and said, "I see."

"Take it, this sword will be yours from now on."

Hearing this, Xu Chen was a little amused.

This sword originally belonged to him.

Now that the property has been returned to its rightful owner, he doesn't know whether to laugh or cry.

He walked towards the green bamboo and pulled it up by the roots as if he were pulling up a radish.

The sword whistled like a dragon's roar, and the sword intent surged wildly, but all of it was easily blocked by Xia Rushuang.

Inner disciples would feel tremendous pressure when they drew their swords for the first time, but Xu Chen's pressure was completely diluted by Xia Rushuang.

Even if all the swords on the Sword-Wen Peak were added together, they would not be as powerful as Xia Rushuang's sword.

The body of the Green Bamboo Sword is white with a slightly shiny luster. It looks no different from an ordinary sword, but the sword intent contained in it is as surging as a huge wave.

It was originally an ordinary sword.

But he stayed with Xia Rushuang for a long time.

So it also becomes less ordinary.

Xu Chen felt a little nostalgic when he felt the sword intent, but he still held back a few words of emotion and said in a feigned surprise, "The sword intent is so turbulent."

"My sword is naturally like this."

Xia Rushuang downplayed it, as if she didn't care.

She didn't notice anything unusual from the fluctuations of the sword intent, and found that she might need to play with Xu Chen for a while.

She just didn't believe that Xu Chen would never reveal any flaws in his life.

"Let's go, I'll take you to the main peak."

Xia Rushuang did not ask any more questions and decided to take Xu Chen to the main peak first.

As long as Xu Chen is at the main peak, she has plenty of time to find out what happened that year.

She still doesn't know what happened to Xu Chen, why he died suddenly, and how he was in love with so many people at the same time.

If the young man in front of him is really Xu Chen, then how did he come back to life?

She had too many questions about what happened back then and was waiting for Xu Chen to answer them.

Before Xu Chen could answer, he saw a flash of sword light and a long sword appeared at his feet.

The sword shadow shuttled through the clouds, and Xu Chen pretended to be standing on the flying sword for the first time, staggering from side to side.

Xia Rushuang flicked her sleeves, and Xu Chen's body stabilized.

The supernatural powers of great practitioners are unimaginable to ordinary practitioners.

The two of them shuttled above the crowd, as if turning into streams of light, and faint exclamations could be heard from under their feet.

Everyone knows that Xia Rushuang's sword is one of the seven swords in the world.

No one has ever stood on Xia Rushuang's sword, not even the Saint Ye Miaoyi.

And today, Xu Chen stood on Xia Rushuang's sword.

This is enough to prove Xu Chen's position in Xia Rushuang's heart.

They don't understand.

Those disciples who held high positions in the inner sect even began to feel dissatisfied.

"I have to tell the eldest brother."

An inner sect disciple decided to tell Ji Xuan the news, because Ji Xuan had always wanted to become Xia Rushuang's apprentice.

But it has never been successful.

Why does Zhao Chen have the right?

……

The top of Qingyun Mountain.

The Xuyun Sword Sect has a total of thirteen peaks, and the deputy sect leader is located on the second peak, Qingyun Peak.

In many sects, the sect leader and the deputy sect leader are on the same mountain, and the Xuyun Sword Sect was also like this in the past.

But after Xia Rushuang arrived, everything changed.

Many rules of the Xuyun Sword Sect have changed.

No one objected.

In other words, no one dared to object.

Ji Xuan longed for this kind of dominance, so he always wanted to become Xia Rushuang's apprentice and gain this unparalleled power.

But he has never been able to gain Xia Rushuang's recognition.

He could only practice hard, hoping to defeat the Saint Ye Miaoyi one day and become Xia Rushuang's apprentice.

The cold wind blew in his face, but he did not intend to use sword energy to protect his body, and let the cold wind blow across his cheeks.

Surrounded by clouds, he closed his eyes and continued to meditate.

"Brother Ji, something bad has happened!"

Just as he was meditating, a voice came into his ears and he couldn't help frowning.

Ji Xuan opened his eyes, turned around, and asked, "Didn't I tell you not to disturb me while I'm practicing?"

"But Senior Brother Ji, the Sect Master has accepted another disciple..."

Chen Yukui, the tenth junior brother of Qingyun Mountain, summarized the current situation in brief words, with an anxious expression and eyes full of sorrow.

"Take in a disciple? Who? Junior Sister?"

Ji Xuan frowned. He didn't expect that there would be someone else who could catch the eye of Sect Master Xia.

He was clearly rejected by Sect Master Xia.

Apart from Ye Miaoyi, he is the most qualified person in the entire sect.

Neither can anyone else.

But he could tell from the anxiety and sorrow in his tenth junior brother's eyes that the person was not him, but someone else.

The only thing he could think of in his mind was his junior sister.

Junior Sister is the youngest among the inner disciples and also the most talented.

If anyone could surpass him and become Sect Master Xia's disciple, it would only be Junior Sister.

Even so, he was still a little unconvinced.

His tone was somewhat displeased.

"No...it's a person named 'Zhao Chen'."

Chen Yukui kept shaking his head and said to Ji Xuan.

Zhao Chen?

Ji Xuan frowned even more deeply. He searched for the name in his mind, but he couldn't bring up the person at all.

No impression at all.

He had never heard of this person in the inner gate.

He had impressions of the famous geniuses in each peak, or at least had heard of their names, but he had never heard of this so-called Zhao Chen.

Logically speaking, he shouldn't have never even heard of it.

"Do we have this person in our inner sect?"

Ji Xuan couldn't help but ask, but after thinking for a long time, he still couldn't remember the man's name.

It is difficult for a true genius to keep a low profile. It is unreasonable that there would be no rumors about him.

"He is a disciple who participated in the trial this year. He is a genius who surpassed Chu Qianjun and Dongfang Qiaoyue. The sect master directly accepted him as his personal disciple."

Chen Yukui omitted the process of Xu Chen climbing the mountain and made the key points clear.

Trial?

Ji Xuan was wondering what kind of trials were going on recently. Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind and he asked, "Are you talking about the entry-level trials?"

"Yes."

Chen Yukui smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know why this happened."

"He became the sect master's personal disciple right after joining the sect?"

Unbelievable, Ji Xuan's expression revealed unprecedented surprise.

"Yes."

"Aren't you kidding?"
