Chapter 70 The First Practice at the Foot of Sword Mountain

Nobody knew if Xian Chunan who was like a scholar was good at reasoning, but it was more than enough for him to cope with Li Fuyao, so after Li Fuyao ended the conversation with Master Xian, he found that this master didn’t mention anything about practicing swordsmanship, and then he sadly found that he didn’t even have a sword yet.

 

The machete he had used before had been broken into halves, and when he killed the tortoise in Green Lake, it turned into pieces, which was the reason why he had nothing to use at hand, so under a master’s expectation, Li Fuyao went to the mountain path again and cut down a medium-sized sword tree. Then he left that place quickly and didn’t want to be found. After all, although he stayed at the foot of the mountain, he was not a swordsman on the mountain. However, he didn’t know that since Xie Lu opened that passage, the old master and a lot of swordsmen on the mountain had known it clearly, but nobody knew why none of them came out to stop them or had objections. It seemed that the people on Sword Mountain had agreed silently to let this teenager cultivate at the foot of the mountain. For this result, Wu Shanhe who was still suffering in the sword grave hoped that Li Fuyao could reach the top of Sword Mountain, but he still thought this was incredible. It was fine that the old master didn’t let this guy stay on the mountain, but he insisted on staying at the foot and would come to the mountain to steal something from time to time. However, the old guy ignored it?

 

But even if Wu Shanhe had ten thousand questions, he didn’t dare to step out of the sword grave randomly again. The old master kicked him into it twice, and if there was the third time, he might be skinned.

 

However, this boy swore in his heart that he would see that guy after he went out.

 

The reason why Li Fuyao cut the sword tree was simple. It was because he had no sword and it would be not easy for him to learn swordsmanship. So he must have a sword. As a result, Xian Chunan suggested making a wooden sword for him to use temporarily. But after Li Fuyao carried the sword tree down from the mountain, he was confused as he wondered who would make this sword.

 

The three masters and Li Fuyao stood in the open space in front of the shabby temple and kept quiet for a long time while staring at this sword tree. Then the four looked at one another. At last, Xie Lu and Xian Chunan turned to Liu Yibai at the same time. Liu Yibai in black felt terrified and asked with guilt, “How can I do the carpenter’s job?”

 

Xian Chunan replied gently, “Several years ago, when you quarreled with Xie Lu, I heard clearly that you were a nice carpenter before you climbed the mountain.”

 

Liu Yibai turned his head all of a sudden and looked at his senior fellow apprentice while thinking, “I never talked about this matter these years and thought that you didn’t know. But when did I spill the beans?”

 

Xian Chunan comforted him. “Liu, don’t need to be like this. It doesn’t matter what your background is. But now Li Fuyao needs a wooden sword, which is an urgent matter. If he doesn’t have a sword, it would be nonsensical and delay his cultivation. If he goes down the mountain to travel around the world later and he is killed at one blow by an enemy after walking to Green Lake, it will be your fault. As his master’s junior fellow apprentice, how can you do that?”

 

When Xian Chunan said that, Li Fuyao couldn’t help but turn his head to glance at this master, thinking, “How can you comfort others in this way? You can say so easily that I will be killed at one blow?”

 

Liu Yibai raised his head and glanced at Li Fuyao, looking hesitant.

 

Xie Lu snorted. “You are wasting time. Liu Yibai, let me do it.”

 

So the three looked at Xie Lu almost at the same time. Liu Yibai couldn’t help but wonder if the identity of his junior sister apprentice was more complicated than being an inheritor of the Xie family and she had other skills.

 

He watched as Xie Lu picked up the wood randomly with her sword and then waved Light Snow on the wood. At last, the bits of wood flew everywhere and it was beautiful like the snow in winter. However, after the three came back to earth, the wood from the sword tree had become the bits of wood all over the sky, and there was nothing left.

 

At last, the three looked at one another speechlessly.

 

As a result, Li Fuyao went to the mountain path again and cut another sword tree before bringing it back. This time, there was still no sound from the mountain. All people could confirm that the old master had silently agreed to let this boy stay at the foot of the mountain. It was no problem as long as he didn’t enter Sword Mountain, so nobody paid attention to him.

 

Liu Yibai did the carpenter’s job again and made the wood a wooden sword. Out of sheer boredom, he even used the rest wood to make two sword sheaths. This swordsman who had no sheath had a sudden inspiration and thought that when he competed with Xian Chunan earlier, the sound of unsheathing the sword was pleasant to hear, so he made two sheaths.

 

After he gave the wooden sword to Li Fuyao, the latter was brought out of the temple by Xie Lu whose face was cold to the open space aside to compete on swordsmanship. Xie Lu controlled her strength at the first stage and competed with Li Fuyao who was at the second stage at the foot of Sword Mountain for the first time. In fact, they competed on swordsmanship as they said, but it was proper to say that Xie Lu let Li Fuyao stab her.

 

However, even though Xie Lu restrained her strength to the lowest level, Li Fuyao was still defeated utterly and even had no power to fight back. Xie Lu patted him with Light Snow and made him black and blue.

 

Liu Yibai and Xian Chunan stood in the distance and watched the scene. Liu Yibai sighed with emotion. “Probably few people on Sword Mountain are Xie Lu’s opponent in swordsmanship.”

 

Xian Chunan laughed in a low voice. “The swordsmanship of the Xie family attaches importance to skills and makes light of methods. The swordsmanship of that Sword Immortal from the Xie family was unique in the human world. As an inheritor of that family, Xie Lu would certainly make much more progress in swordsmanship. Others can’t compare with her.”

 

Liu Yibai laughed. “Chen Sheng met her, and he would have a headache.”

 

Xian Chunan joked rarely, “So he went down the mountain.”

 

Liu Yibai was stunned suddenly and in an instant, he covered his head and expressed resentfully, “Xian, we didn’t send secret messages this time.”

 

Xian Chunan who realized later scratched his head and sighed. “Right.”

 

As expected, after the two said that, Xie Lu flew past the temple on her sword with killing intent.

 

The sword Qi was so potent that Li Fuyao was dumbfounded to see it.

 

Liu Yibai shook his head with a bitter smile but Xian Chunan’s expression didn’t change.

 

In an instant, the two who had been attacked by Xie Lu’s sword Qi showed up in front of the temple again.

 

Xian Chunan sighed with emotion. “Xie Lu is really bad-tempered.”

 

“Xian, you didn’t send a secret message this time.”

 

Xian Chunan was speechless.

 

“Don’t hesitate. Go now!”

 

…

 

Xian Chunan’s hair bun was scattered and his hair was messy after he was attacked by Xie Lu’s sword Qi twice without fighting back. He coiled his hair randomly and fixed it with a sprig. Then he came to the temple with Liu Yibai again, but this time, they had a tacit agreement and avoided mentioning their junior sister apprentice Xie Lu. They just talked about something else.

 

Liu Yibai said emotionally, “Xian, I think Li Fuyao would make more progress than us in the future.”

 

Xian Chunan put some intractable hair behind his ears and laughed peacefully. “It’s normal that he will make more progress. If he is inferior to us, it will show that the three of us are not powerful, right?”

 

Liu Yibai stated seriously, “Xian, in the past I didn’t think that you are so lively and humorous.”

 

The corners of Xian Chunan’s mouth twitched, and he chuckled. “I face you two all the time. One of you wants to compete on swordsmanship every day, and the other is muddling through all day long. It’s difficult for me to be humorous.”

 

“…”

 

“Xian, you speak like this, and you are really hateful.”

 

“It doesn’t matter. Anyway, you can’t defeat me.”

 

“…”

 

“But Liu, Xie Lu let Li Fuyao stab her, and you should teach him everything you know. Anyway, if you keep it by yourself, it is useless.”

Liu Yibai raised his head and said with grief and indignation, “Xian, I want to compete with you on swordsmanship.”

 

Xian Chunan shook his head. “No.”
