In the main hall, the tense atmosphere did not last long, because at a certain moment, the shadow of the broken sword flashed and the sword qi was already at hand.
In less than an instant, the sword qi was already in front of Qing Yu. It was as if the sky was as close as a stone’s throw.
But even if the sword qi was divine, it would be futile if it could not hit the person. The two fingers were like a heavenly pole, blocking the sword qi’s advance.
The Brahma Qi was melting all elephants.
A green smoke rose from between Qing Yu’s fingers and the sword qi had disappeared without a trace. And behind him, a clear light was revealed.
“Hold on!”
Mu Xiuji flicked his hands across the table, repelling the qi that was directed at each other, and said in a solemn voice, “Two, please give me face, how about stopping for a while?”
“Of course,” Qing Yu said, smiling lightly, “I am a guest, so the guest will do as he pleases.
“Just in case Master Xiao Zhuang is not happy about it ——”
“You ——” Xiao Qianxiu was furious at his words, but seeing Mu Xiuji’s warning look, he could only withdraw his sword and gave Qing Yu a fierce glare, “I’ll let you off the hook first!”
“Humph!”
After saying that, he snorted coldly and left with his sleeves flung out.
Mu Xiuji also ignored him and said apologetically to Qing Yu, “I’m sorry, Qing Yu. Master Xiao Zhuang has come in with a bad heart, so please bear with me if I’ve been rude.”
In any case, it was Xiao Qianxiu who had spoken badly in the first place, and Qing Yu was justified even if he had shown his sword first. Mu Xiuji had not actually done anything wrong, and apologising in place of Xiao Qianxiu could be said to be extremely sincere.
For such a sincere apology, Qing Yu naturally accepted it.
“No matter, it was just a moment of anger, the poor dao did not take it to heart.” Qing Yu waved his hand and said.
Xiao Qianxiu was just a withered bone in a mound, Qing Yu was not too angry with a guy who would sooner or later become a dead man. At most, he would sneer at his corpse after his death.
“The real person is forgiving, I am ashamed.” Mu Xiuji said in apology.
With that, a few people chatted and talked again. With the couple and Mu Xiuji deliberately befriending each other, Qing Yu and the two of them could be said to have had a good conversation, and even Xuan Zhen, who was a bit aloof, chatted with Lian Feihong for a while longer.
After some small talk, Qing Yu and Xuan Zhen left the main hall and walked with smiles to the room Mu Xiuji had arranged for them.
“You’re happy?” On the way, Xuan Zhen said.
“Yes a little.” Qing Yu lightly raised his right hand and separated his index and middle fingers, revealing the sword marks on both fingers.
With a slight movement of energy, two tiny sword qi were forced out from the sword marks, and the slight wounds immediately recovered and disappeared.
The two tiny sword qi were controlled by Qing Yu’s true qi and intersected in the air, emitting a sound like gold and stone cracking, almost like two small swords.
“Two such tiny sword qi, my Brahma Qi Miroku was unable to melt it, and was even injured by it on my finger. The treasure hidden in Xiao Qianxiu’s body, huh ——-”
“The sword qi is so pure that even your Brahma Qi Miroku couldn’t melt it, Xiao Qianxiu must have a sword weapon on him that was in the top five of the famous sword list back then.” Xuan Zhen said.
Qing Yu’s strength was something she had come to recognise in these days of fellow cultivation. Once the Brahma Qi Mi Luo Rong Wan Xiang came out, even some divine weapons were unable to break through Qing Yu’s defence.
Xiao Qianxiu was able to leave sword marks on Qing Yu’s finger with just a single sword qi, and the tiny sword qi left behind prevented the wound from healing. Then the sword he possessed was definitely a supreme divine weapon.
Qing Yu laughed lightly as his palms closed, his powerful true qi forcibly crushing out the two tiny sword qi, “If I’m not wrong, Xiao Qianxiu should have on his body, one of the remnants of that divine sword from the past years, the — once the number one divine sword in the world ——”
“— Heavenly Fraction.”
The Divine Sword of Heavenly Distraction, the number one sword in the world, the sword is as its name suggests, its sharpness can make heavenly distinction. Nine hundred years ago the Sword God wielded the Heaven Dividing Sword in a battle against that generation of the Demon Djinn of the Heavenly Demon Palace, and the sword’s aura stretched across the vault of heaven, leaving sword marks in the world that would not dissipate for months, hence the saying of Heaven Dividing.
Back then, the Heaven Dividing was broken by the Sword God Nangong Broken Sword, and it was divided into three fragments, one of which, it seems, is now on Xiao Qianxiu’s body.
“What’s the use of you wanting the Heaven-Splitting Fragment? It’s not like you’re that kind of swordsman.” Xuan Zhen looked at Qing Yu with this eager look and asked curiously.
As far as she knew, although Qing Yu used swords, he was not very keen on divine swords. The True Martial Sword had been in his hands for quite some time, but he didn’t see him practising it on a regular basis. For him, there was no difference between sword weapons and other weapons, as long as they were not dragon sets like the wolf tooth stick, Qing Yu could use them all.
There is only a difference between a sword and a knife, or even a gun or a halberd. The Heavenly Fraction is a divine sword sought after by those in the sword dao, even if it is a fragment it is sought after by countless swordsmen. But for Qing Yu, the Heavenly Fraction remnants were not as useful as the True Martial Sword.
Even the True Martial Sword wasn’t much of a concern anymore, let alone the Heavenly Fraction Sword that had been mutilated. Even if the Heavenly Fraction was strong, it was already a fragment, so by definition, Qing Yu should not be very interested in it.
“What I’m interested in, naturally, wouldn’t be the Heavenly Fraction, but the meaning behind the Heavenly Fraction. This sword, but it represents the chance for the dusty Sword God Lake to appear again. Now that Buried Sword Peak has already started moving, I think they are already preparing to restart the Sword God Lake.” Qing Yu said as he walked.
“Restarting the Sword God Lake? They are trying to open the seal of the Sword God Lake?!” Xuan Zhen said in a shocked voice.
At the beginning, the Sword God Lake was the number one sacred place of the sword dao in the world, and could be said to be the top choice among the cave lands. But why did the Sword Dao Palace, the Imperial Sword Villa and the Buried Sword Peak not choose to stay in the Sword God Lake after it split?
Another point, why did the Sword God Lake split? Even if the master of the Sword God Lake had been killed by the Sword God, it should not have simply gone up in smoke.
History is not without its great sect leaders who have been killed by others, but if that’s why the sect was scattered, then it’s a bit too fragile.
Although the Sword God Lake has not survived as long as the great sects of Buddhism and Taoism, there are still ways to maintain the legacy. Even if a leader is lost, another can be elected. Just as the True Martial Sect did back then.
The reason why it was split and abandoned was because of the great changes that took place in the Sword God Lake. The people of the Sword God Lake sealed the lake and went their separate ways due to their different philosophies.
Now, the Buried Sword Peak and the Sword Dao Palace wanted to unite and renew the glory of the Sword Dao. If they want to open the seal, they naturally do not need the talent that exists as the key to the seal.
As an outsider, Qing Yu wanted to have a share of the Sword God Lake after opening it, so naturally he needed a sufficient bargaining chip. This bargaining chip had now been delivered to his door.
“No wonder you weren’t angry at all earlier.” Xuan Zhen said in relief.
“I never fight with a dead person.” Qing Yu smiled back.
Xiao Qianxiu used the Heavenly Equinox Fragment as a reliance, and would not give it to Qing Yu. Since that was the case, how should one obtain the Heavenly Equinox Fragment?
There was no other way, but to kill people to get them.
