Chapter 83 How about You Go with Me

Li Fuyao walked around the bamboo cottage and then came to the back, to see a path made of bluestone leading to the distance. He looked cold and felt a piercing chill while walking on the bluestone path. Although he thought it was sword Qi, it was colder than before, and it was like a gust of cold wind, with some resentment.

 

The countless broken swords under the cliff on Sword Mountain and the sword grave achieved the same result by different methods, but most of the broken swords under the cliff had been ruined by the demonic cultivators, and there were resentment and restlessness on the blades. After they fell off the cliff, the man dressed in a grey robe gathered them here. As time went by, it became a sword forest. There was no so much sword Qi inside as that in front of the bamboo cottage, but when he walked in it, it influenced the mind of sword greatly. Some people with no firm will might die here.

 

Li Fuyao walked slowly along this bluestone path. Every time he took a step, he grabbed the wooden sword with more strength and then stopped after he could see many swords indistinctly not far away inserted in the front on both sides of the bluestone path.

 

At the moment, all the fog blocking him scattered, and what he saw were swords which had no tips or handles, or flawless long swords yet full of rust inserted on both sides of the bluestone path.

 

There were two smells in the air. One was the chill and the other was the decayed smell.

 

Most of these swords had existed in the world for more than one thousand years, and they were left after that great war. They could be left, which proved that they were extraordinary, but during the period, countless swords were decayed because time passed, so it was not surprising that the air was full of rotten smell.

 

But after Li Fuyao stepped into this sword forest, he found that the chill started to intrude his blood and meridians from his pores little by little.

 

Li Fuyao endured the chill. He even missed the hot pot in Baiyu Town. If he could eat some at this moment, it might be helpful to resist the coldness. Even if it didn’t work, it might make him feel better.

 

After taking a few steps, he finally saw a long sword with no rust on its blade and its cold light was the same as before. Li Fuyao pondered for a while and then reached out his hand. However, before he touched the blade handle, it obviously resisted him, which made him have to give it up.

 

When he chose a sword, he must consider the other side’s feelings. Even if there was a gulf between them probably, it wouldn’t show that it didn’t want to go with him before he touched it.

 

Li Fuyao wanted to see what was at the end of the sword forest, but in this situation, every time he took a step, more chill would intrude into his bone. He didn’t know if he was able to walk to the end of the sword forest and see every sword in it.

 

Choosing a sword depended on destiny.

 

But it was hard to explain the word “destiny”.

 

Li Fuyao was merely a swordsman at the second stage, and his vital energy came out of his heart and could only remove the chill little by little, but it was much slower than the chill which was intruding.

 

Li Fuyao could do nothing but speed up, hoping that he could choose a sword soon and take it out of here. However, next, he tried to grab several long swords successively, but none of them didn’t resist him, and even some swords wanted to make the little sword Qi on their blades intrude Li Fuyao’s meridians and let him die here directly.

 

These swords had stayed here for long and had many bad emotions since long ago.

 

Li Fuyao walked faster and stopped in front of the sword No Return this time. It had been thrown here by that man in grey and looked different from others. After seeing Li Fuyao, it turned around and seemed to be unwilling to see him. Li Fuyao asked cautiously, “Bro, how about I take you away?”

 

The sword No Return was indifferent and even walked in, unwilling to let Li Fuyao grab it.

 

Li Fuyao was depressed.

 

He looked at the endless depth of the sword forest in front of him and gritted his teeth. Then he walked a few steps forward.

 

This time, what he saw were all broken swords, and none of them was complete.

 

Li Fuyao sighed and felt the more piercing chill. He didn’t want to walk ahead randomly. After he sat down, he recited the formula several times that Chen Sheng had taught him and then closed his eyes while operating the vital energy in his body, hoping to drive away the chill in his body in this way.

 

Till now, Li Fuyao had unspoken criticism of the swordsmen’s attitude as they had nothing but a sword even though the world was big. If he had some magic tools of Taoism or Confucianism which could protect him, how would he be afraid of the chill? However, since he had taken the road as a swordsman, he didn’t have a reason to complain.

 

After fifteen minutes, Li Fuyao felt better and walked again. This time he stopped after walking dozens of steps.

 

This time, before his eyes were short swords. Li Fuyao thought of the sword Hidden Fish on Master Xian’s waist and felt disappointed. In fact, he didn’t like short swords.

 

So after he looked at them several times, he walked on. It appeared that he couldn’t find a suitable sword until he walked to the end.

 

In front of this bluestone path, the man in grey and the woman in white stood side by side. The man stayed silent, and the woman said in a deep voice, “He has finished a half of the way and will walk forward. The evil swords you purposely put at the end must be not suitable for him.”

 

The man’s expression didn’t change and he walked several steps, coming to the stream. He said peacefully, “Everything depends on destiny. Maybe some evil swords are willing to go with him after seeing him. What’s more, perhaps there are others among the swords at the end except the evil swords I have thrown.”

 

The woman in white frowned. “I finally see a teenage boy who practices swordsmanship like the young men I have seen on Sword Mountain those years. If you let him die here, I won’t agree.”

 

The man in grey shook his head and didn’t make a promise. He just smiled calmly. “Who knows?”

 

The woman in white pouted and shouted, “Do you still remember that when Liu Xiang was down and out with a sword that year, he put a pig intestine around you and roasted it on a fire? Your body was stained with much terrible smell then, and it scattered gradually after a long time. I didn’t want you to be in my sheath.”

 

The man in grey was exposed and this woman was one of the experiencers of that thing, and what she said was true with evidence. Perhaps even if Liu Xiang were still alive, he couldn’t retort, but to the man in grey, it was one of the memories that he was unwilling to recall. Now it was mentioned by somebody, so he was helpless. “No matter how you talk about these old stories, I won’t take him out of that sword forest. Before he entered, I have made it clear. That is what he chose. If he dies, would he blame me?”

 

The woman in white snorted. “Why do you insist on learning from Liu Xiang, not anybody else? He was weird and lowered his head to look at this world. Do you know that you are under the cliff instead of being on the mountain now?”

 

The man in grey didn’t make comments but walked back to the bamboo cottage alone. He was unwilling to reason with the woman. After all, he couldn’t persuade her. In fact, that Sword Immortal Liu Xiang was the same, and he never reasoned with the woman. He couldn’t convince her. Then he would reason with her with the sword, and it would be excellent.

 

Liu Xiang’s sword wouldn’t give up until it reached its goal after it was unsheathed. With his unmatched sword Qi, few people dared to reason with him, and the man in grey who had learned from Liu Xiang was just that sword.

 

At the same time, Li Fuyao finally stopped when he was about dozens of steps away from the end. There were many swords in front of him, but he didn’t look at those long swords with bright blades. However, he repeatedly looked at a long sword full of rust.

 

The reason was simple. It was just because he saw that the long sword full of rust was about three meters away from those long swords with bright blades.

 

It seemed that this long sword was alone or it was disliked by those swords.

Anyway, as a result, this sword was isolated.

 

Li Fuyao kept silent for a long while and remembered that he struggled to live alone after he was sent to Baiyu Town that night in winter. While thinking, he felt sad. He suddenly asked, “How about you go with me?”
