Chapter 645

~5 min read 970 words

After finishing the Daoist "history books," Su Xuan flipped through the numerous arts of the Daoist Heaven Sect. Although for him, who had mastered the Seventy-Two Earthly Transformations, the role of these arts was average—much like a chicken rib—since he was already here, taking a look would not have any impact.

In Beimingzi's conjecture, after Su Xuan stepped into the Heart Fasting Hall, he would have to stay for at least a few days.

As a result, after only one day, Su Xuan walked out from inside, which made him quite surprised.

Upon learning that Su Xuan had walked out of the Heart Fasting Hall, Beimingzi came before Su Xuan at the first opportunity.

The reason he did it himself was mainly because Su Xuan's status and strength made him have to treat him with caution. Even though Su Xuan had agreed to the deal between them, the Xueji Sword was currently still in Su Xuan's hands, and no one could say for sure if he would go back on his word. To put it bluntly, with Su Xuan's strength, even if he went back on his word, Beimingzi could not do anything; after all, he was currently just an old guy without power.

"I thought you would stay in the Heart Fasting Hall for a long time!"

Upon seeing Su Xuan, Beimingzi spoke indifferently; this could be considered his true thoughts.

"The things in the Heart Fasting Hall are not of much help to me; one day is already enough!" Su Xuan answered Beimingzi's words.

Beimingzi understood in his heart; sure enough, even if Su Xuan were allowed to step into the Heart Fasting Hall, the temptation of those arts to Su Xuan was not great.

From this perspective, it was they who had taken advantage of Su Xuan.

The Daoist classics and arts had no attraction to Su Xuan, but the Xueji Sword, which had been taken away by Su Xuan, was of extraordinary significance to the Daoist School.

"Next, are you planning to go to the Human Sect's Qi Wu Pavilion?"

Beimingzi asked Su Xuan again.

"Let's talk about it in two days; I need to organize some things in my mind." Su Xuan said softly.

Beimingzi nodded and did not force it.

Anyway, he had already discussed the specific matters with Xiaoyaozi, and Su Xuan could go to the Human Sect's library whenever he wanted.

The scenery of Mount Taiyi, where the Daoist School was located, was wonderfully beautiful, with trees that were evergreen throughout the four seasons.

In the mountain forest, the number of disciples from the two sects combined was not large, so most places were wild areas with lush trees. Standing high on the mountain peak, the mountain wind blew, bringing bursts of fragrance.

The air here was extremely good.

Su Xuan stood with his hands behind his back, and having nothing to do, he appreciated the beautiful scenery of Mount Taiyi.

A burst of crisp footsteps sounded behind him; this sound was very low, and even though the person coming deliberately concealed their footsteps, Su Xuan was what kind of person—even if the person coming was soundless, he could still perceive it.

"Come out!"

He did not turn around, only speaking calmly.

A little girl wearing light green clothes held a wooden sword and walked out slowly from behind a tree.

She came before Su Xuan, not saying a word, only looking up, watching Su Xuan, her fighting spirit fierce.

Su Xuan felt the other party's fighting spirit, but he did not care; instead, he looked at the little girl before him with interest.

Dressed in light green clothes, holding a wooden sword, with white hair, and a pretty and cute appearance, he recognized who the other party was at the first opportunity.

"I heard that some time ago, someone came to the Daoist Heaven Sect to apprentice, defeating many Heaven Sect disciples in a row with a wooden sword, and later, during the enlightenment, defeated the six great elders of the Heaven Sect with excellent talent, leading Beimingzi, who had not taken an apprentice for decades, to come forward and take her as his last disciple!"

"Is that person you?"

Su Xuan's gaze fell on the little girl.

The little girl immediately felt an incomparably powerful pressure, but even so, she did not lower her head, instead continuing to look up, meeting Su Xuan's gaze.

After looking at each other for a while, the little girl spoke: "You are very strong; whether it is Senior Brother Chi Songzi or Master, neither is your opponent. I know that I am not your opponent either."

"But I have a reason why I must challenge you!"

She was not an arrogant person; although she had defeated many Heaven Sect disciples in a row that day to ascend Mount Taiyi and successfully apprentice into the Daoist School, she was very clear about her own strength. Perhaps she could defeat ordinary Daoist disciples, but facing a powerful person like Su Xuan, who was unparalleled in the world, she still did not count for much.

But even so, this was not a reason for her to be afraid.

After seeing Su Xuan, for the sake of some obsessions in her heart, she had to fight Su Xuan; even if she lost, at least it represented that she had tried.

Numerous thoughts flashed through the little girl's mind, finally turning into a firm gaze.

The little girl held the wooden sword and said to Su Xuan in a deep voice: "Xiaomeng of the Heaven Sect, here to ask for a sword fight!"

Asking for a sword fight—this was the term Su Xuan had brought up at the very beginning.

Never did he think that these words would be heard by Xiaomeng, and she followed suit and learned it.
