Chapter 146: The Unrivaled Swordsman Qiu Shuyi!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The mysterious island.
Sea creatures suddenly appeared.
They rushed over like locusts, creating waves in the nearby ocean, sinking all the remaining floating islands before leaving.
Right now...
Everyone was soaking in the water.
...
In the ocean.
There was a faint fragrance.
This fragrance...
Lu Ming smiled bitterly.
He had taken the same path with Gao Xiaoqing previously.
At that time, she was constantly attacked by lightning, and her body was being constantly tempered, exuding herbal fragrance. Xiaoqing’s herbal fragrance wafted toward him during the entire journey. How could he not be familiar with the smell?!
He didn’t think much of it at that time, but now it seemed that...
Gao Xiaoqing had really evolved!
He wondered what her Master instilled in her body. Under the tempering of thunder and lightning, flames and oceans, they had been integrated into her blood!
It was...
Fully integrated into her body!
This was amazing!
What else could Lu Ming say?
...
“Lu Ming!” Elder Xu roared.
This was too much!
They were ready to leave, yet they were attacked by these kinds of creatures! Many of the Swordsmen that they left behind had died of suffered serious injuries because of this group of ferocious beasts!
What about their revenge and vengeance!
They were all ready to leave, yet the other party refused to let them go?
“All of you are courting death!”
Elder Xu was furious.
He would not leave anymore.
Zhang Erliang was right. Lu Ming was too dangerous!
They had to kill him!
Bang!
Elder Xu came charging toward them.
“Run!”
Lu Ming ran away with his sister right away.
Whoosh!
He plunged into the sea immediately.
Bang!
Bang!
Many terrifying Sword Auras sliced into the sea. At this time, a cold voice sounded in the void. It felt as if it one was experiencing countless years of winter.
“Who did you say was courting death?!”
Bang!
A terrifying Sword Intent descended upon them.
Oh no!
Elder Xu’s countenance changed drastically.
This Sword Intent...
Lu Yan’s Master!
Run!
He did not have any slightest hesitation!
He turned to flee, however, the Sword Intent was faster than him. He had covered several kilometers but it was still able to float over him.
Whoosh!
Elder Xu paused. There was a huge hollow in his chest.
I...
I can’t believe that...
I will die here.
Elder Xu looked indignant.
How could it be so fast!
He could not understand.
It was true.
It was very far from the main continent!
Even if they received news, a seven-star and above cultivator would not be able to make it here at such a fast speed!
How could this be...
Bang!
Bang!
Elder Xu fell into the sea.
Dead.
The two strongest Swordsmen on the island, Elder Xu and Elder Zhang died under the same Sword Intent!
However at the moment, the Sword Intent did not stop, but turned into countless subtle ideas exploding into the air. Those Swordsmen who were scrambling and running for their lives did not make it to see tomorrow.
All of them were dead!
This...
Was Lu Yan’s Master?
Everyone was startled.
They knew that this was perhaps the strongest cultivator they had ever seen!
The unrivaled Swordsman Qiu Shuyi!
Standing right before them...
The legend!
“My Master is here,” Lu Yan whispered.
“Okay.”
Lu Ming nodded slightly.
“When you see her later, refrain from talking,” Lu Yan reminded him.
“Okay.”
“Sister, don’t worry, I won’t embarrass you.”
Lu Ming knew to behave according to the situation.
Although she was his sister’s Master, she was after all a very powerful cultivator! If he upset her unintentionally, even his sister would not be able to help him.
“I don’t mean that.”
Lu Yan shook her head slightly.
“What do you mean then?”
Lu Ming felt a little dazed.
A distance away.
The void tore apart, and out came a graceful figure. As she gradually solidified, everyone widened their eyes in disbelief.
T-this was the unrivaled Swordsman?
The figure that appeared from the void was very young!
She looked like she was only about thirty years old, and she looked ravishing. She was even more beautiful than the girls at school who were in their prime.
“Back to basics!”
“I heard that the Swordsman who has reached the ultimate level will return to basics!”
Gao Tianlang was astonished.
Lu Yan’s Master had already reached this stage.
“If only I had such a Master.”
Zhao Yunshan was just as astonished.
“So beautiful!”
Wu Hongfei was just as marveled. If he could be with a veteran like her, the next generation would definitely have very good genes and they would win at the starting line.
Everyone glanced at Wu Hongfei.
This guy...
Why would he see something so different from others?
...
At this very moment...
Qiu Shuyi appeared in the void and looked around at the stones that were all over the place.
Wow—
She waved her hands.
The several hundred pieces of floating stones pieced together to form a small island.
“Come.”
Lu Ming helped Lu Yan up.
Qiu Shuyi swept her cold gaze over the place, locking on the location of the two of them. She disappeared from the spot instantly and when she appeared again, she was in front of the two of them.
“How do you do, Elder?”
Lu Ming was being very respectful.
“Hello.”
Qiu Shuyi smiled lightly, as gentle as a jade.
She was indeed his sister’s Master.
Lu Ming was secretly amazed. The elder must be a woman of unmatched beauty in the ancient times. She was just like her name, full of scholarly...
However...
He had yet to finish his thought when Qiu Shuyi helped Lu Yan up, looking pained at her condition. Lu Ming who was holding on to her originally, was being shoved aside after she bumped his chest.
Lu Ming was dumbstruck.
This...
What did she mean by that?!
“Xiao-yanyan, are you hurt?”
“Am I too late?”
“Did Lunar Shadow, that cheap person, try to fool around with you?”
“How dare he try to snatch my inheritor? If not for the fact he is the elder, I would have torn down his legacy... Humph! such a shameless old guy!”
Qiu Shuyi kept nagging.
Buzz—
She pressed her hands against Lu Yan, the Sword Aura surging, as she helped Lu Yan to heal her injuries. However, she paused in the midst of it.
“Eh?”
“You actually didn’t self-destruct? It seems that the enemies are not that powerful,” Qiu Shuyi exclaimed.
The elder was unlike what he had imagined.
“Master.”
Lu Yan sighed. “Please be mindful of your image.”
“It’s alright.”
Qiu Shuyi said to Lu Yan, “Since he is your brother, he is my brother as well. He is one of us. It’s okay.”
Upon finishing her words...
She looked toward Lu Ming.
“Are you Lu Ming? Xiaoyan has talked about you a couple of times. Not bad! You are very young and you are already... hmm... a two-star Card Creator. Uh—”
Qiu Shuyi paused slightly, taking a closer look at Lu Ming, before revealing a smile and saying her heartfelt praise, “You are really handsome!”
She was indeed an elder!
Her praises were so... hardcore.
She had shown how it was when there was nothing to praise, but one still had to give compliments.
“Oh... Since you are her younger brother... Here’s a small gift.”
Qiu Shuyi rested her hand on Lu Ming’s chest.
Bang!
There was a sudden influx of Sword Aura!
This was...
Lu Ming widened his eyes in shock. The Sword Aura rushed into his body, healing his internal injuries instantly. He had become stronger!
Obviously...
Qiu Shuyi could tell that he suffered from internal injuries and many of his organs were wounded. She did not want Lu Yan to worry about his injuries and hence she helped to heal him.
She was indeed an elder!
Lu Ming was grateful toward her.
However, the Sword Aura was too powerful. After healing Lu Ming, there was still ninety percent of the Sword Aura left in the body! Since Lu Ming’s liver suffered the worst injuries...
Hence...
The Sword Aura flowed toward his liver.
Afterward...
Bang!
His liver ruptured again!
Lu Ming was confused.
Damn!
Did the master and disciple have some misunderstanding toward the liver?!
Why did they have to rupture the liver whenever they strengthened one’s energy?!
Bang!
Bang!
His liver exploded with a loud burst.
The Sword Aura kept tempering and healing the liver until it disappeared eventually.
Lu Ming’s liver which was weakened after being ruptured had become stronger.
Bang!
His liver trembled.
Lu Ming could feel the surge of energy.
This...
What was this?
“Not bad.”
Qiu Shuyi patted Lu Ming’s chest.
“Thank you.”
Lu Ming smiled bitterly.
“It’s okay. You are one of us.”
Qiu Shuyi felt very satisfied.
“Why are you here so early?”
Lu Yan sighed.
According to her estimation, even if she was at her fastest speed, her Master would take some time to be here.
“What do you think?”
Qiu Shuyi rolled her eyes. “I lost contact with you for too long a period. I was worried and I found someone to deduce your approximate location and came all the way to look for you.”
“There’s nothing to worry about.”
Lu Yan felt puzzled. “This was not the first time.”
“True.”
Qiu Shuyi sneered. “Indeed, it’s not the first time. The first time there was no news of you for seven days, you self-destructed.... The second time you lost contact for ten days, you self-destructed as well...”
Fine.
It seemed like his sister was a source of worry for other people as well.
“If I came late this time...”
Qiu Shuyi scanned the surroundings. “I suppose you will self-destruct as well.”
“It’s nothing.”
Lu Yan’s expression was indifferent.
Self-destruction...
Anyway, she could cultivate again. There was nothing to worry about.
“Self-destruction is a small matter. What I am worried about is that you will run off with someone else.”
Qiu Shuyi sneered. “Swordsmen like him who are very powerful will go out of their mind when they see people who are gifted. They will force them to become their disciples and to take their legacy! They are very shameless. Since you have your Sword Intent with you, I am not worried. But if you have used all the Sword Intent, and you ran into Lunar Shadow legacy, the old fellow might force you to take the legacy.”
“That’s right!”
Lu Ming believed so.
She was very right.
Lunar Shadow had indeed done that, however, the elder did not give the legacy to Lu Yan, but him.
Hehe.
Lu Yan simply smiled.
She could not tell if Lunar Shadow was being shameless or not. She only knew that it was the case for herself... while she was sleeping, a shameless person...
...
At this very moment...
Gao Tianlang and the rest were still soaked in the water, looking at the three of them who were chatting, feeling aggrieved.
They did not dare to eavesdrop.
They did not dare to eavesdrop on the conversation of the renowned elder. If the elder did not invite them, they did not dare to come up from the ocean...
However...
Thankfully they were safe now.
All they needed to do was to wait for help.
“Brother.”
Gao Xiaoqing was very happy. “Are you alright?”
“It’s alright.”
Gao Tianlang felt relieved.
He knew that his sister would be alright with that card.
However...
He rested his gaze on her clothes.
There seemed to be some vague blood stains.
“Are you injured?”
He lifted Xiaoqing’s sleeve to reveal her arm, and there was a streak of blood on her arms.
“You...”
Gao Tianlang was furious. “Did those people do this to you?”
“No.”
Gao Xiaoqing quickly pulled down her sleeves. “Brother, I-I did it myself... It’s alright. I was thinking of using my blood to attract some ferocious beasts here...”
Gao Tianlang was silent for a long time.
“Those sea cows... Did you summon them?”
He was shocked.
“No.”
Gao Xiaoqing waved her hands continuously, blushing. “I didn’t summon the first batch... but I might have summoned the following batch.”
Gao Tianlang felt worried.
His sister was seriously injured twice by the bulls. Yet she summoned the sea cows to them... Would his sister be suffering from some kind of mental illness?
Ah, he was not a good brother.
Gao Tianlang was distraught.
Gao Xiaoqing blushed, she did not dare to say anything else.
She did not seem to have summoned those sea cows. They seemed to be the sea cows from before, but they were still nearby and they were attracted by her blood.
But she did not dare to say it.
What if Lu Ming was exposed?
She no longer hated Lu Ming now, especially when Lu Ming risked his life to save her in the legacy!
...
“Old Zhao, are you sure you don’t have the legacy?” Niu Xinghai whispered.
“No.”
Zhao Yunshan was crestfallen as well.
He did not even get a glimpse of the legacy.
“Who is it with?”
“I have no idea. But it might be Wang Xuan,” Zhao Yunshan whispered.
Among them, Wang Xuan had the highest probability.
“Is that so?”
Niu Xinghai thought about it. “Are you sure you’re not going to develop a friendship with him? Perhaps after the two of you are closer, Wang Xuan will teach you some of the legacy skills.”
“Hehe.”
Zhao Yunshan glanced at him. I am not Wu Hongfei!
I am not that kind of poor man!
There was nothing he cared about except for the legacy.
However...
After competing seven times for the legacy, he was at a loss.
“Old Niu,” Zhao Yunshan suddenly said, “I don’t think I will be able to persist this time.”
Niu Xinghai was shocked. “Are you thinking of giving up?”
“Yes.”
Zhao Yunshan sounded grim.
Swordsman... was his dream!
He would give up everything and risk his life for his dream!
But now...
He had tried seven times for the legacy!
He wondered whether he was cut out to be a Swordsman.
This path was too difficult. It was too difficult at the starting line and the journey. It was even more arduous to be the strongest. Talents, resources, wisdom, nothing was indispensable.
“Alright.”
Niu Xinghai was silent.
Zhao Yunshan...
Had decided to give up after all.
He was only at the average level and he made it this far with the help of resources. There was no bloodline legacy in his family. It was already not easy to make it this far!
Right now...
He could only give up his Swordsman dream and inherit his father’s business empire that was worth billions of yuan...
