she was very talented and repeatedly came out on top in the family's internal competitions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at the age of twelve, her swordsmanship hit a bottleneck, and she lost to her opponents several times in family competitions, with poor results.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After losing a competition once again, Nie Susu ran out of the city crying and came to a small river outside the city, practicing her sword as a way to vent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It just so happened that a sword practitioner wearing green robes and a cloak passed by, and after watching her practice her sword by the river for a while, said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Practicing the sword requires focus; if you are only venting your emotions, you should not use a sword.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterward, this sword practitioner pointed out some essentials of swordsmanship to Nie Susu, and just a few short sentences benefited her greatly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Later, this sword practitioner guided her for a total of three days before drifting away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To the twelve-year-old Nie Susu, this sword practitioner was mysterious, powerful, and came and went without a trace, departing by flying through the air right in front of her eyes every time—she was simply like a fairy from a novel!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So Nie Susu called the other person Fairy Sister.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her swordsmanship reached a high level because of that mysterious master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But her foundation in swordsmanship was laid by this Fairy Sister.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had always felt that if this Fairy Sister hadn't laid the foundation for her, allowing her to stand out among her peers, she might not have been noticed by her master later on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So deep down, she had always been very grateful to this Fairy Sister.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was just that after they parted ways back then, they hadn't met for many years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Never would she have thought that the other person would suddenly appear before her eyes today.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ones who suddenly appeared before Nie Susu were none other than Li Fei and Ning Qingman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two had traveled all the way from Gansu Province to Dongping Province, and on the way, they had screened the intelligence gathered by 'Under Heaven'.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Fei had requested 'Under Heaven' to investigate all people and events with abnormalities in the entire Dongping Province during this recent period and hand them over to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Subsequently, he and Ning Qingman screened out intelligence that might be related to Li Ming and then went to investigate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two came to Tancheng as their first stop; this was the place Ning Qingman had chosen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they were riding a flying boat and passing over Tancheng in an invisible state, Ning Qingman suddenly sensed a familiar sword intent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So she had Li Fei land in this small courtyard of Nie Susu's.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fairy Sister?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Fei turned his head to glance at Ning Qingman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other person had an acquaintance in this Tancheng, which was why she chose to come here as the first stop?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Qingman looked at the young girl before her with a complex expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the other person was twelve, she had had a chance encounter with her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that time, she only felt that the girl's obsession with winning or losing and the spiritual energy when practicing the sword were somewhat similar to herself when she was young, so on a whim, she guided the other person for three days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing her again now, that sword light filling the garden just now, that agile figure, and that sword intent once again reminded Ning Qingman of herself when she was young.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who taught you the sword technique you were practicing just now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Qingman asked in a cold, clear voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nie Susu was startled, then immediately frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Peeking at others practicing martial arts is a major taboo in the pugilistic world!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Immortal... senior.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nie Susu cupped her hands toward Ning Qingman:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Regarding this matter, please forgive this junior for being unable to disclose it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her master had repeatedly warned Nie Susu not to tell others about her, and not to use the sword techniques she had taught her in front of people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Qingman fell silent, and the small courtyard grew quiet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Fei sensed that Ning Qingman's mood was a bit off, so he asked via voice transmission:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Immortal Sword Ning, is there a problem with the sword technique she practices?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It is the Ning family sword technique.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ning Qingman's reply was extremely concise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Fei frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ning family sword technique?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During this time, while on the road, he had secretly used the Thousand-Mechanism Shadowless Silk to acquire much information about the Ning family from back then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over a hundred years ago, the Ning family was ranked among the \"Eight Great Families,\" and like the current Seven Great Families, they were martial arts clans with many years of heritage, with a Grandmaster presiding over them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But later, because they participated in factional strife and were dragged into imperial court grievances, they ultimately ended up with their family destroyed and members dead!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was roughly similar to the current Gouchen Sword Sect and Mount Baituo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s just that the First Prince, whom the Gouchen Sword Sect and Mount Baituo chose to side with, hasn't completely lost yet, so the final outcome is still hard to say.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the prince whom the Ning family chose to support back then later became the Emperor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s just that the Ning family didn't manage to hold on until the day of victory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And precisely because that prince eventually sat on the dragon throne, Ning family descendants with astonishing talent like Ning Qingman were able to survive and were not wiped out completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, how would she have had the chance to break through and become a Saint?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The enemies who caused the destruction of the Ning family back then were all purged by the newly enthroned Son of Heaven and killed to the last one!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Ning Qingman's family members were dead after all;
