Chapter 400

~8 min read 1,582 words

Without stating her inner obsession, Facing Xiaomeng met Su Xuan's gaze and continued, "Please, Your Excellency Master Xuantian, grant me a sword fight!"

Su Xuan then said no more.

Looking at Facing Xiaomeng holding the wooden sword, he flicked his sleeve, and a sword pierced into the soil in front of him.

"Use this sword!"

Facing Xiaomeng looked at the sword appearing before her and was stunned, simply because this sword was "Snow Clearing," the ritual implement of the Daoists, which could only be wielded by the victor of the Heaven and Man sword debates through the generations.

But this time, the Heaven-Human sword debate was a bit different; because of Su Xuan's arrival, this sword fell into Su Xuan's hands.

Facing Xiaomeng came to her senses, cast aside her wooden sword, and took up the Snow Clearing sword.

"Very good!"

Su Xuan looked at Facing Xiaomeng holding Snow Clearing and said softly: "I hope that one day, I will be able to see you wielding this sword!"

In the original story, after Facing Xiaomeng succeeded as the Master of the Heaven Sect, the thing she wanted to do most was to defeat Xiaoyaozi in front of the many Daoist disciples and take back Snow Clearing. Unfortunately, until Su Xuan transmigrated, this plot point had not yet arrived, and it was unknown whether she had taken back Snow Clearing.

At this moment, letting Facing Xiaomeng hold this sword could be considered a whim of Su Xuan.

Facing Xiaomeng heard Su Xuan's words and showed a thoughtful expression.

She did not know about the trade between Beimingzi and Su Xuan.

However, she was a smart person and knew what consequences would follow if this sword were taken away by Su Xuan.

A better outcome would be for the Heaven and Man sects to view the Yin-Yang School as a common enemy, spending the next many years with the goal of taking back this sword; a worse outcome would be for the two sects to become sworn enemies after losing Snow Clearing.

It was not that no one had thought of taking back Snow Clearing, but given the strength Su Xuan had displayed, how could they take Snow Clearing back from his hands?

Even Master Master Beiming was defeated.

Therefore, over these past few days, even though the disciples of the Heaven and Man sects were filled with grief and indignation, not a single person rashly sought out Su Xuan in a vain attempt to take back Snow Clearing.

Beimingzi treated Su Xuan with courtesy, probably to ease the relationship between the Daoist School and the Yin-Yang School. If they went to provoke Su Xuan at this time, they would probably cause Beimingzi's painstaking efforts to fall short.

After hearing Su Xuan's words, Facing Xiaomeng also developed some guesses, "Is he hoping that I will be able to go to the Yin-Yang School in the future and take back this sword?"

Facing Xiaomeng thought she understood Su Xuan's intention and developed endless fighting spirit in her heart.

Holding the Snow Clearing sword, she performed a sword flourish and attacked Su Xuan.

Su Xuan floated his body, easily avoiding the sword Facing Xiaomeng thrust at him. At the same time, he raised his arm, and the wooden sword that Facing Xiaomeng had thrown aside fell into his hand.

Watching Su Xuan pick up the wooden sword.

Facing Xiaomeng's eyes became brighter. The Qiuli sword moved again, and she leaped out. Her small body waving a long sword looked a bit awkward, but it had to be said that her sword was fast and sharp.

No wonder she could defeat many Heaven Sect disciples at such a young age and attract Beimingzi to come forward and accept her as his disciple.

The Heaven Sect accepts disciples with innate talent as the priority condition. It can be said that those who can apprentice into the Daoist Heaven Sect do not have poor talent.

And Facing Xiaomeng is undoubtedly the one with the most outstanding talent among them.

It can only be said that in terms of talent, Facing Xiaomeng is indeed firmly in control.

In Su Xuan's view, Facing Xiaomeng's talent is even better than that of the late Yin-Yang School protector, Xinghun.

In the original work, when Xinghun appeared, although he was a youth.

But in fact, he was just a fake youth.

Perhaps he was a true youth when he first entered the Yin-Yang School, but later, time stopped on him. By the time the original plot started, he could not be called a youth.

But Facing Xiaomeng is different. When she first appeared, she was only eighteen years old.

Although she lost in the competition with the Confucian Fonian, she was only slightly inferior. If combined with the fact that she was eighteen, it shows her terrifying talent.

Su Xuan seemed to understand why the Heaven Sect prioritized talent when accepting disciples.

For a genius, cultivation is indeed not a difficult thing.

Perhaps geniuses have various flaws, such as insufficient mental cultivation, but these can be compensated for, while strength cannot be improved by ordinary methods.

Facing Facing Xiaomeng's attack, Su Xuan held a playful attitude, waving the wooden sword in his hand, easily blocking Facing Xiaomeng's various offensives.

Facing Xiaomeng's sword was fast, but Su Xuan had been in the Jianghu for many years and had seen many top swordsmen. Compared to them, Facing Xiaomeng's sword technique was just so-so.

However, he did not defeat Facing Xiaomeng cleanly.

It is rare to see the childhood of the cold and arrogant Heaven Sect Master from the original work, and her personality as a child is completely different from that in the original work. It is obvious that Su Xuan would be interested.

"Hong Lian Tong" (pedophilia) is obviously not going to happen.

However, it is fine to play with Facing Xiaomeng.

He held the wooden sword, easily blocking round after round of Facing Xiaomeng's attacks, only defending and not attacking, letting Facing Xiaomeng exert her full strength.

At first, Facing Xiaomeng thought Su Xuan was just so-so, but gradually, she reacted.

"I don't need you to let me!"

A low voice came from her mouth. She was a bit angry. Su Xuan's posture was clearly treating her as a real little girl and playing with her.

Su Xuan seemed not to have heard Facing Xiaomeng's words, "Your heart is very restless, and your sword is not pure enough!"

"A sword is not used like this."

Facing Xiaomeng was stunned for a moment, and then she only saw Su Xuan wave the wooden sword and slash out a sword.

Although he was holding only a wooden sword, after this sword was slashed out, it gave Facing Xiaomeng a feeling that the world was vast and there was nowhere to escape. She felt her hair stand on end, terrified.

Immediately afterward, Facing Xiaomeng developed a feeling of surviving a disaster.

It was not that she dodged Su Xuan's sword, but that Su Xuan's sword was deliberately slashed into empty space.

Boom!!

Several large trees were directly cut off. The power of this sword had reached such a level.

Facing Xiaomeng was shocked, and then she saw Su Xuan swing another sword.

She had no choice but to shift her stance and brandish Snow Clearing, doing her utmost to parry this sword strike from Su Xuan.

After she blocked this sword, she was stunned again; the power of Su Xuan's sword was not as great as imagined.

After she blocked Su Xuan's sword, Su Xuan's voice sounded in her ear again, "Don't be distracted, carefully experience the feeling of swinging the sword."

Facing Xiaomeng came back to her senses.

Then, Su Xuan continued to wave the wooden sword, and Facing Xiaomeng followed her subconscious instinct to block Su Xuan's sword. During this period, a series of exquisite sword moves were performed by her. At first, she didn't think much of it, but after reacting, she realized that these sword moves were actually sword moves she hadn't mastered.

Su Xuan's sword swinging seemed to be deliberately guiding her to use the sword like this.

This made her extremely angry and even more unwilling.

She came here to fight Su Xuan, not to have Su Xuan guide her sword technique, even if Su Xuan's strength was very strong, stronger than anyone she had seen.

She continued to swing her sword, but her movements were all as if they were in Su Xuan's expectation.

Even if she tried hard to change her sword moves, in the end, she was forced by Su Xuan's sword to deal with the sword in her hand first, and her body never made the movements she wanted in her heart.

A tingling sensation struck her, and the Snow Clearing sword fell from Facing Xiaomeng's hand.

Facing Xiaomeng was preparing to continue moving, but another wooden sword pointed at her throat, causing all her movements to stop.

After Su Xuan played with her for a while, finally, with this sword, she was defeated.

Facing Xiaomeng accepted the reality of defeat with a humiliated mood, looking straight at Su Xuan, "Why?"

In her mind, the previous sword-swinging movements of passively meeting Su Xuan's attacks flashed constantly. Recalling this, how could she not understand that it was a set of extremely exquisite sword techniques.

Su Xuan knew what she wanted to ask and answered calmly, "Your talent is very outstanding!"
