Chapter 10 Get Parted

“Li Fuyao, I am going to Liangxi, but I can walk with you to the border of Yanling. Get ready, and we will set out in a few days.”

The next morning, as soon as Li Fuyao stepped out of his room after waking up, he saw Qing Huai. She said that with no emotion, which surprised him.

But Qing Huai didn’t speak much and turned to leave after that. Chen Sheng was sitting on the stair and looking at Li Fuyao.

Li Fuyao thought for a while and soon came to sit next to him.

Chen Sheng was not that kind of old tutor who would like to explain something with a long speech. On the contrary, he was best at killing demons or people with a sword.

Otherwise, why would he have killed that big demon in the Revelation Stage with a sword alone?

So when Li Fuyao was sitting beside him, Chen Sheng didn’t keep anything from him but said straightforward, “You are in a very low stage, and I am afraid you will suffer on the way. It happens that little girl will go to Liangxi and take the same way as you, so let her walk with you. You need to practice swordsmanship on the way and you’d better reach the Sword Qi Stage before you go to the Sword Mountain. Otherwise, I will regret accepting such a stupid disciple like you.”

Li Fuyao didn’t make a promise but responded calmly, “I will do my best.”

Chen Sheng sighed, “You are a teenager. Why aren’t you arrogant and stupid like the others? Although it is foolish, I have to say that sometimes the foolishness will make me think that you will walk farther on the way of swordsmanship.”

Li Fuyao just kept quiet. He didn’t have a pure original intention to practice swordsmanship, but he didn’t hate it.

Chen Sheng waved his hand, “Well, it’s no good that there are stupid swordsmen everywhere in the human world. We can’t change the situation and everything will be in vain.”

Li Fuyao didn’t say anything and picked up the stick, continuing to practice swordsmanship.

The journey of a thousand miles started with one step.

He finished practicing at the end of the day.

After enjoying the sunset clouds, Li Fuyao sat on the stair with the stick held in his hands and watched the stars. He asked, “Can a swordsman really cut the stars to fall at one blow?”

Chen Sheng replied peacefully, “Of course. There were six Sword Immortals six thousand years ago, and each one could do that. But now, there is only one in the human world.”

Li Fuyao looked up at the stars without a blink and asked with a smile, “Since that Sword Immortal whose family name is Chao is the most powerful in the past six thousand years, why is there no rumor about him cutting the stars?”

Chen Sheng ridiculed, “If you cut the stars, you just want the commonplace people to look up at you. If you want to do something significant, you will go to the demonic land to kill big demons. You know what? Sword Immortal Chao has been to the demonic land and killed a big demon. As a result, the demons in the demonic land put the swordsmen from the human world on the list of people they would kill, but they don’t dare to go too far to send demons to the human world. Otherwise, they are afraid that Sword Immortal would go to the demonic land to slaughter them again.”

Chen Sheng said that but kept some words to himself. Sword Immortal Chao once announced if the swordsmen in the human world didn’t stand for the Orthodoxy anymore, he would go to visit the three religious sects respectively. His words caused an uproar that year, and many cultivators of the three sects asked their sages to teach the Sword Immortal a lesson, but none of the twelve sages of the three sects spoke a word or took actions, so the people in the human world realized that even the sages were unwilling to offend that Sword Immortal.

Moreover, after the Sword Immortal said that, he went into the demonic land to kill a big demon in just one year, which shocked the human world. The big demon was in the same stage as the sages in the human world, the cultivators in the ninth stage, the Ocean Stage.

Chao Qingqiu who had such a fighting ability seemed to tell everybody with his actions that he didn’t joke.

Chen Sheng suddenly went into silence for a while and then continued seriously, “Fuyao, in fact, the swordsmen in the world are disliked probably because the cultivators are from the three religious sects, but few people like us insist on practicing swordsmanship. However, I have practiced swordsmanship for nearly one hundred years, and I have never thought it is wrong. Although you just start learning, don’t think we are inferior. Now there are few swordsmen in the world, but maybe in the next thousand years, there will be more swordsmen again. Who knows?”

Li Fuyao grinned. “That day will come in the future.”

Chen Sheng stood up. This middle-aged man with a sword on his waist laughed in a low voice, “So what if there are few swordsmen in the world? Our backs are always straight. Fuyao, I look forward to seeing you become famous in the world someday. If you have a chance to stand beside Sword Immortal Chao, you will make me proud.”

Li Fuyao also stood up and walked a few steps backward. Then he bowed to Chen Sheng respectfully.

“Master, have a good trip.”

Chen Sheng spoke so much today, so Li Fuyao guessed that he would leave. But since Chen Sheng didn’t say where he was going, Li Fuyao wouldn’t ask. It would be pointless.

Chen Sheng stated expressionlessly, “In fact, in the Dawning Stage, I am quite young, so I won’t be satisfied just in this stage. Maybe when we meet next time, you will be a powerful swordsman in this world, and I will be a famous Sword Immortal.”

Li Fuyao smiled and gave a thumb-up. He had no objection to this master who offered to teach him.

Chen Sheng looked at Li Fuyao and felt contented.

He turned his head and looked at Qing Huai in the distance, “Girl, I will leave this disciple to you. Protect his life before you get parted. I don’t want my first disciple to lose his life for no reason.”

Qing Huai snorted and showed that she knew.

Chen Sheng stopped speaking and walked slowly with his sword.

When he walked out of the courtyard, he shouted all of a sudden, “The world is so large that it can contain everything. Only the swordsmen including me don’t ask God for mercy. One sword is enough for us.”

As soon as Chen Sheng finished his words, Li Fuyao saw him take off the Baiyu Sword from his waist and throw it to the sky. Then his figure was on the sword and he left with it.

Looking at Chen Sheng’s receding figure, Li Fuyao softly repeated what he said and then laughed.

He raised his head and looked at Qing Huai who was far away. She snorted, “If you become that kind of Sword Immortal, I will kill you first, in case you bring disasters to the demonic land in the future.”

Li Fuyao sighed and wondered why this girl was so hot-tempered.
