Too Reckless

After ten years of ascetic cultivation, no one asked him, and he became famous all over the world in one fell swoop.

The two battles at the Sword Worship Platform have just ended. The alias 'Jiuzong Jiankui', representing the strongest swordsman of the younger generation, appeared in the public eye for the first time, and in a short period of time, it was spread far and wide across the major sects of the nine sects. , and even spread to Middle-earth.

Cultivation is about longevity, and does not advocate killing, but dignity is only above the sword's edge, and extraordinary combat power is the basis for ensuring that one can live and seek longevity.

Therefore, in the final analysis, the cultivation way is still a world where the strong are respected; all beings walking on the cultivation way naturally worship the strong.

After this battle, Zuo Lingquan finally became a cultivator with a name and a surname, and he was considered to have achieved the first small goal of his life - no longer being looked down upon by people on the mountain.

For Zuo Lingquan, this kind of achievement is just the beginning of gaining a firm foothold in this world; but for ordinary people, it is already the pinnacle that they can't even imagine.

Outside the Sword Worshiping Platform, thousands of cultivators gathered on the street, watching Zuo Lingquan, who had just made a name for himself, walk out of the octagonal gatehouse.

Jiang Yi stood in the crowd, her eyes were full of small stars, but when she saw Zuo Lingquan looking over, she quickly put away her adoring expression, and made the appearance of being 'pampered' as the eldest princess should.

The cultivators on the street were crowded with water, and although none of the masters had the nerve to accept apprentices, there was an endless stream of people who cheered and praised them for trying to make friends.

Among them, the most are the female nuns of the nine sects, ranging from the young beauties of the 14th to the 15th year, to the enchanting fairies of 400 to 500 years old. In this fight, the nine supreme mate selection rights were directly played.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Yi felt sour in her heart, but there were so many women on the street that she was too embarrassed to approach Zuo Lingquan—mainly because she was afraid of being stabbed to death by those women with jealous eyes.

Therefore, Jiang Yi just walked behind the crowd, waiting for Zuo Lingquan to get away.

Zuo Lingquan was also a little bit overwhelmed by the grand occasion of "throwing the fruit into the car"; but he couldn't fly, so he couldn't finish the sword fight like a real sword fairy, and could only walk on the ground.

In the face of the politeness of many strange monks, Zuo Lingquan didn't want to offend people with a cold face.

Fortunately, people in the practice also know the proportions, but they are just watching along the way, and they are not entangled in the back.

After Zuo Lingquan entered the Baili Market in the Iron River Valley, there were fewer onlookers. He took the opportunity to turn into a Xianjia shop and was about to leave through the back door; then he thought that he was blackmailed by the shopkeeper's son and dragged him to write a plaque, and then he was able to escape.

The alley behind the street was sparsely populated, and the white snow dyed the alley and the walls on both sides white.

Zuo Lingquan waited in the alley for a while, then Jiang Yi ran over with her skirt in hand.

I ran in a hurry, there was a layer of snow in the alley, and when I stepped on my embroidered shoes, it made a 'chacha-' sound, and my chest was trembling, which was quite eye-catching in the wind and snow.

But after seeing him, Jiang Yi quickly stopped, tidied up the hair by the ear, and then came to the front:

"No one is following, go back quickly."

Zuo Lingquan took the limelight, and naturally showed a look of asking for credit in front of his daughter-in-law, holding Jiang Yi's hand and saying:

"Princess, how did I behave just now?"

Jiang Yi was fascinated just now, if it weren't for the crowd, she might have jumped up.

However, she glanced at Zuo Lingquan and found that Zuo Lingquan wanted to show off to her, so she acted as if the superior was admonishing the subordinate, and said plainly:

"It's alright, we have to make persistent efforts in a few days, don't take credit for it."

Zuo Lingquan was naturally dissatisfied when he heard such official words:

"Just okay?"

"..."

Jiang Yi didn't know why, but after last night, she was a little afraid of Zuo Lingquan, and she couldn't be fierce if she wanted to. She pursed her lips and changed her mouth:

"It's a good performance, but it's not at your highest level yet, you have to keep working hard."

Zuo Lingquan was satisfied and smiled:

"If you have the motivation to work hard, why won't Her Royal Highness reward me as a great hero? I have made a face for the entire Great Pill and Xihuang Valley."

Jiang Yi actually wanted to reward Zuo Lingquan, but she had almost nothing in the practice, so she couldn't give Zuo Lingquan the honorary title or give a few beautiful concubines as in the secular world.

"What can I do for you... Do you want to owe it first? When I get better, I will supply you."

Zuo Lingquan shook his head slightly, hugged Jiang Yi's waist, and slipped his hand down a little dishonestly:

"As a daughter-in-law, it's not easy to reward your husband. If the princess really has this intention, there are ways."

Jiang Yi's first experience in personnel, after all, is still a little green, where can't stand this kind of frivolity that even Wanwan can't stand, she slapped Zuo Lingquan with her elbow:

"Outside, don't mess around... What reward do you want?"

Zuo Lingquan wanted to work hard for three days.

But such vulgar words really do not meet the identity of a peerless swordsman, he said with a smile:

"I'm very tired from fighting today. I want to go back and have a good rest. With such a beautiful snow scene, we sit in the small building together and enjoy the snow together. It should be very artistic."

Jiang Yi glanced at it and felt that the snow scene in the alley was really beautiful, she nodded and said:

"I'll just watch it with you, but what kind of reward is this?"

"Look at it for three days, don't go out, and obey me, is it alright?"

? ?

Jiang Yi had never seen the danger on the bed, so she didn't think about it. In fact, she wanted to reluctantly agree to it. But she thought about it and shook her head:

"I'm afraid it won't work for three days. I contacted my aunt and the others just now. The three of them, as well as the dumplings, were very excited. They said that they would come over to watch the fun, and they should be there in the afternoon."

Hearing this, Zuo Lingquan dismissed the idea of ​​working hard for three days; but for some reason, the scene of Jiang Yi and Qingwan lying side by side appeared in his mind.

However, this kind of immoral thing cannot be done at present, and it can only be thought about.

Zuo Lingquan chuckled lightly and said, "It's time to call them and go pick them up."

Jiang Yi nodded slightly and walked along the alley with Zuo Lingquan.

It's just that the two of them walked a few steps, and a shadow fell from above and stopped before the two of them.

Zuo Lingquan touched the hilt subconsciously, looked up, but saw Shangguan Lingye landed in front of him.

Shangguan Lingye was wearing a golden phoenix dress that was incompatible with monks. Although he was not afraid of the cold, he still had a shawl on his shoulders on a snowy day, which looked gorgeous and graceful.

"Senior Ling Ye (the Empress Dowager)?"

The two were slightly surprised.

Shangguan Lingye's expression was as calm as ever, and she was full of vigour, and came to the two of them:

"Didn't bother you?"

Jiang Yi was still holding Zuo Lingquan, her face flushed at this time, and she quickly released her hand:

"No... um, why are you here, Empress Dowager?"

Shangguan Lingye smiled friendly, took out a unicorn paperweight from his arms, and handed it to Jiang Yi:

"I'm going to come and have a look. I just heard you say that you are going to pick up people. Use my boat to pick them up. It's more convenient."

Jiang Yi and Zuo Lingquan had this intention, but they were embarrassed to borrow a boat. Seeing that Shangguan Lingye took the initiative to speak, Jiang Yi hurriedly took over the Kirin paperweight that was controlling the painting boat:

"It's really bothering the concubine."

"What's the trouble? If you're embarrassed, you can help me deal with the files of the Demon Hunting Division, which are all on the boat."

?

Jiang Yi came to the Iron River Valley, thinking that she could "steal a half-day leisure", but she still did not get rid of the fate of being a free labor force.

With all that said, what can Jiang Yi say? She smiled and nodded:

"No problem, let's go first."

As he spoke, he wanted to pick up people with Zuo Lingquan.

But Shangguan Lingye showed up, obviously not just to borrow a boat, she said again:

"Just pick someone up and go alone. Zuo Lingquan still has to fight in the arena and needs to rest. I will take him to the Iron Arrow Mansion to find a place to practice and settle down. You can come over later."

? ?

When Jiang Yi heard this, she felt something was wrong in her heart.

Throw all the work into her arms, then put her away, and take her man out for a walk...

Why do I feel a little naive...

It's just that these words are just thinking about in my heart. Jiang Yi knows the identity of Shangguan Lingye, and she should just want to arrange a practice place for Zuo Lingquan. She nodded and said:

"Thank you, Empress Dowager, then I'll go back to the capital first."

Shangguan Lingye nodded slightly.

It is very safe to travel to and from the boat. Zuo Lingquan didn't say much about this. After sending Jiang Yi to the ferry, he followed Shangguan Lingye back together...

-----

The lively event of the Sword Worshiping Platform ended, the Iron Arrow Mansion was cleared, and the huge square outside the sect disappeared, leaving only snowflakes falling silently.

The two figures walked side by side in the vast snow-colored square, and two long footprints extended behind them.

Shangguan Lingye looked at the sect where he lived as a child, and recalled the past a hundred years ago.

Zuo Lingquan refused Shangguan Lingye's invitation to drink and enjoy the snow last night, which was a bit unreasonable. He walked slowly behind him, thought about it, and said first:

"Senior Ling Ye, last night..."

"It doesn't matter. You and Jiang Yilang are in love with each other. It's really not good to disturb you at night. It's because I'm used to living alone, and I forgot the time of ordinary people's work and rest."

"Senior Sister Li is fine."

Shangguan Lingye turned his head and looked at the sword worship platform in the distance:

"You performed well today. You are bigger than when I first appeared. The elders of the nine sects are all dumbfounded."

Zuo Lingquan heard that Shangguan Lingye was very powerful back then, and smiled modestly:

"Outsiders say that Senior Ling Ye is a venerable lord, and his appearance must be bigger than me, how could he be inferior to me."

"Before I joined the Nine Sects Association, I was already invincible by my peers, and no one would be surprised no matter how good my performance was; you didn't have a reputation before, and with this record, the shock would naturally be greater than mine. If our peers compete, you will be with me You can't support three moves under your hand, this time you have a good time."

"..."

I thought I was praising me, but I was praising myself for a long time... Zuo Lingquan said half-believingly:

"In front of Lingye, we are in the same situation, is there such a big gap?"

Shangguan Lingye talked about this, and his clear eyes showed three points of pride:

"You are just an ordinary person, you don't have any talent of your own, and your level is all based on your personal efforts; and I am God's reward for food, and I don't work less hard than you, and it is inevitable to be better than you. Sometimes, God is not for everyone. All fair."

Zuo Lingquan has never relied on God, so God is unfair, it doesn't matter to him, he nodded and said:

"Then I will try to catch up with the seniors as soon as possible."

"Let's beat Jiuzong Qingkui to the ground first; today you have leaked the bottom line, it is very difficult to defeat Hyacinth and Shang Siming, and if you encounter Wolong in Central Continent, I am afraid there is no chance of winning. I will give you a chance these days. Sparring, you should hone your match-up skills, so that when you are on the court, you will have a better chance of winning."

Whether it is in the arena or in the practice of Taoism, feeding tricks by an expert is a great kind of undeserved kindness. Zuo Lingquan quickly cupped his hands and said:

"How embarrassing this is, Senior Ling Ye is so kind, I don't even know how to thank him."

Shangguan Lingye raised the corner of his mouth, and the fox's tail also leaked out:

"You don't need to thank me. Today I asked Jiuzong for the lottery. When you win, you can divide me a few percent. We don't owe each other."

Shangguan Lingye served as a sparring partner to help win, and according to the rules, he could have paid dividends; and if it wasn't for Shangguan Lingye's lavish spending today, there would not be so many lucky draws. Zuo Lingquan was naturally cheerful about this:

"It's natural, if we win, we'll get three or seven points in the lottery..."

Shangguan Lingye said politely: "I'm just a sparring partner, how can I take 70% and let outsiders know that I'm bullying the younger generation, maybe five or five."

?

I rely on!

Mao Guo pulls wild goose, Shangguan peels skin...

Zuo Lingquan looked at the beautiful woman in palace dress, these words flashed in his mind subconsciously, he nodded with a smile:

"Then according to what the mother said, as long as you can get the lottery, you should be 70% filial to the mother."

After speaking, he subconsciously glanced at his buttocks, presumably to relieve the pain in his heart.

I have to say that Shangguan Lingye's waist-hip curve is perfect.

Shangguan Lingye walked in front, unaware of Zuo Lingquan's eyes that stopped at a touch, walked across the square, thought about it and said strangely:

"Just now, I was at the Sword Worshiping Platform. After you finished the fight, you didn't look right. It seemed like you had a wave in your heart. What's going on?"

A practitioner must have a mind as still as water, in order to have "the mind of the Tao is like iron." Depression in the heart is more terrifying than being seriously injured. The most notable example is Lao Lu - the heart knot can't be solved. .

When Shangguan Lingye asked about this, he really cared, and his eyes were placed on Zuo Lingquan's face.

Zuo Lingquan and Shangguan Lingye also shared weal and woe. They enjoyed the wine together and saw Shangguan Lingye's red cherries; they were not confidants, but they were indeed friends. He did not hide it, and explained:

"Although Li Chusun lost, his sword was terrifying and outrageously strong. I have never seen such a strong swordsmanship since I practiced swordsmanship. Although I haven't mastered it yet, I can feel that The terrifying sword practice to the peak is not much worse than my sword."

It is not the first time that Zuo Lingquan has seen 'Jian Yi' - outside Qingyun City, the ancestors possessed Tang Jingxuan and used 'Dragon Slaying' once, but his physique was limited and could not split the space, so he did not. Showing the power that the sword should have; this time Li Chusun, although he only touched the threshold, the swordsmanship displayed is indeed the strongest person Zuo Lingquan has ever seen.

Shangguan Lingye saw Zuo Lingquan frowning and said softly:

"Li Chusun uses 'Lianyun', which was created by Venerable Master Qingdu. The idea is to produce the most swords in the shortest time. When you reach the realm of Venerable Qingdu, you can draw swords a million times in an instant. There is nothing under the environment that can block it, so 'one sword breaks all methods', called 'jian one', is indeed comparable to your sword."

Zuo Lingquan has studied kendo for more than ten years, and his understanding of kendo is higher than that of Shangguan Lingye. He sighed and said:

"The original intention of my swordsmanship was to become the 'strongest sword in the world'; I thought I had already mastered it, but when I met Li Chusun, I found out that there are people whose swordsmanship is comparable to mine. This is the original intention of my swordsmanship. I wanted to refute, so I felt a wave in my heart, and I felt that so many years of hard work were in vain."

Shangguan Lingye slowed down and walked side by side with Zuo Lingquan:

"'Jian Yi' is the strongest sword in the world, and it is the 'end of swordsmanship'; even if someone else can realize 'Jian Yi', if they meet you, they will die together, and it is impossible to beat you. If there is a problem, it must be corrected in time.”

Zuo Lingquan shook his head at this: "The real 'strongest sword in the world' should be purely unique and invincible in the world. If there is an opponent, it is not invincible in the world. Why is it called 'the strongest'?"

? ?

Shangguan Lingye frowned when he heard it, "Jian Yi" is recognized as the strongest sword in the world, isn't it a slap in the face?

Shangguan Lingye thought for a while before seriously saying:

"The sword is a killing weapon, and the purpose of practicing the sword is to kill the opponent. 'Jian Yi' means no reason, the way to kill the opponent is bound to be the end of martial arts, there is no way to climb up, and there is no need to go up. Climbing, after all, you can't kill a person twice. Your idea, which belongs to practicing swords for the sake of swordsmanship, has gone astray."

Zuo Lingquan felt that Shangguan Lingye was a little serious, and his expression slowed down:

"Senior is wrong. Sword practice is not for killing people, but for self-protection. If my sword collides with other people's swords and both die, it means that I can't protect myself. You have to keep working hard, senior said, right?"

"..."

Shangguan Lingye frowned slightly, and after thinking about it carefully, he suddenly felt that what he said really made sense.

After all, the original intention of practitioners to learn various killing techniques is not to slaughter all the living beings in the world, but to protect the common people.

Judging from this principle, Zuo Lingquan's remarks are not at all problematic, and "the mind of the Tao is very upright", and there is no place to go astray.

"But... 'Jian Yi' is the ultimate in the way of killing, the limit of martial arts, and the limit that people can bear. It is impossible to become stronger."

"'Sword One' is indeed the limit of a person, but there is absolutely no limit to martial arts; my sword can't be faster, I can use other methods to enhance my combat power, so as to obtain stronger swordsmanship than this sword."

Shangguan Lingye thought for a while: "I've never heard of a sword that is stronger than 'Jian Yi'. Can you still figure out a 'Jian Zero'? No sword is better than a sword?"

Zuo Lingquan was amused by this, shook his head and said:

"This sword of mine has indeed reached the limit of human beings, and it is impossible to increase the speed. However, I saw Li Chusun's sword today, but I have a feeling-since it cannot increase its power, then increase the frequency while maintaining its power. ."

Shangguan Lingye understood what Zuo Lingquan meant, she sighed:

"You take it for granted. 'Jian Yi' is a summary of one's own martial arts, representing a genre. It is impossible for one person to master two kinds of 'Jian Yi' at the same time..."

Shangguan Lingye felt that the explanation was a bit troublesome, so he directly lifted Zuo Lingquan, flew over the thousand-storey buildings in the sect gate of Iron Arrow Mansion, and came to a house.

The courtyard was full of falling snow, and it looked like it was uninhabited for many years. The courtyard in the middle was a martial arts field, and in the center was a dummy of unknown material.

Shangguan Lingye landed in the large courtyard, took out a long sword, and said seriously:

"For example, the school of swordsmanship in Jing Terrace lies in 'Ghost Ghost', which is in the same vein as 'Wuying' of Lord Barren Mountain; 'Wuying' is the most ghostly and elusive sword in the world, before Zhongjian no one can know where the sword came from Hand, shot is sure to kill, just like this..."

Shangguan Lingye held the hilt of the sword, his body did not move, but a sword mark suddenly appeared on the dummy's neck - of course, this was simulated by Shangguan Lingye's magic.

Zuo Lingquan watched from the side, seemingly understanding but not understanding:

"Meaning, if you don't draw the sword, the sword will already go out?"

"It's not that I don't draw my sword, I just explain the concept of 'Wuying'. As long as 'Wuying' is practiced, the way and position of the sword can't be predicted in advance, do you understand?"

Zuo Lingquan nodded lightly.

"The 'Lianyun' of Yunshui Jiantan's concept is 'the most swords in an instant', which is fundamentally different from 'Wuying'. It is impossible for one person to produce millions of swords in an instant, and he can keep every sword in the same position. 'Swords are boundless', as long as there is a sword exposed, 'Wuying' is no longer 'Wuying'; if distraction for 'Wuying' causes the sword to slow down, 'Lianyun' is no longer 'Lianyun'. Yun'. The result can only be that the two ends do not touch, and the sword is not well practiced."

Zuo Lingquan thought about it carefully:

"Actually, theoretically, it's not impossible."

?

Shangguan Lingye felt that Zuo Lingquan was a little lost, and she asked:

"What's your kendo philosophy?"

"Use the fastest speed and do your best to stab the sword in the most accurate place to achieve a one-hit kill."

"The core of 'Lianyun' is 'a million swords in an instant', so it is impossible to use all your strength with a single sword; since you are doing your best, you cannot produce a million swords in an instant, because the sea of ​​​​qi is not enough, and The speed of the infuriating pumping is difficult to support. How do you solve this problem?"

Zuo Lingquan's sword consumes too much, four or five times is the limit, it is indeed impossible to practice "Lianyun", unless he gives up the explosive power of the peak, and turns to modify the swordsmanship of Yunshui Jiantan.

But Zuo Lingquan didn't want to learn 'Lianyun' either, he just planned to 'collect the stones from other mountains to attack jade, and recruit the elders of a hundred families to benefit himself'.

Zuo Lingquan took out his saber, stood beside Shangguan Lingye, and said seriously:

"I don't need a million swords, as long as two swords are fired in an instant, the lethality can be doubled, which is stronger than the current sword one."

Shangguan Lingye shook his head: "You take it for granted, your sword has reached the limit of your body, and you can't strike two swords in an instant at the speed of 'Lianyun'."

"Then practice to the death until you can. I used to be so reckless for 14 years."

"..."

Shangguan Lingye pursed his lips and moistened his lips. He hesitated to say anything—as expected of a disciple of my Iron Arrow Mansion, cultivation never requires a brain, and it's over.

Zuo Lingquan thought for a while and said:

"Going to the top of the mountain and finding that there is no way, is actually a very desperate thing for warriors; now there is another way in front of you, so you have to try to climb up. I think those who realize the peak of 'Jian Yi' Swordsmen, are also trying this way; otherwise, those 'Sword Emperor' and 'Respected Lord', who have 'Jian Yi' in their hands but have no direction to move forward, can't stay at home and eat and wait to die."

Although Shangguan Lingye didn't know whether this statement was right or wrong, he could imagine the feeling of 'standing on the top of a mountain with no way in front of him'. She was silent for a while, no longer arguing with Zuo Lingquan, she nodded and said:

"Then I hope you are not wrong. If you really practice this sword, you can probably destroy the Central Continent Sword Imperial City alone."

Zuo Lingquan looked at the saber in his hand and said with a chuckle:

"Destroy Wolong and Jiulong first... By the way, Senior Ling Ye, Shangguan Jiulong of your sect, is he really that much stronger than me?"

Shangguan Lingye probably wanted to give Zuo Lingquan motivation, nodded and said:

"The difference between clouds and mud. You may be able to defeat him head-on if you practice this sword."

? !

Only by practicing this sword can it be ‘perhaps able to defeat’?

Zuo Lingquan really didn't believe it. When he saw Grandma Shangguan talking about 'Shangguan Jiulong', his eyes were full of pride and confidence.

"Is Shangguan Jiulong a man or a woman?"

Shangguan Lingye was stunned, but he didn't expect Zuo Lingquan to ask this.

She glanced at Zuo Lingquan, and suddenly understood something—could this kid be jealous of me?

"..."

Shangguan Lingye's eyes moved, and he folded his hands on his waist, showing the luxurious aura of a concubine, and said plainly:

"What are you asking about this?"

Zuo Lingquan didn't know what to ask, he smiled and said:

"Just curious, um... interested in such a strong opponent."

Shangguan Lingye secretly noticed Zuo Lingquan's expression~www.wuxiaspot.com~ deliberately said:

"Kowloon is a man, he is taller than you, and he looks more handsome than you. He is gentle and elegant, funny and humorous... There is also a saying in the sect that 'you will lose your life when you see Kowloon'. Can not forget."

"...?"

Zuo Lingquan's expression froze obviously. However, the strangeness in his expression quickly returned to normal, and he said with a smile:

"Is that so? Niangniang has such a high opinion of him, and it is only when you meet him in the future that he will get to know him well."

The snowflakes fell into the silent courtyard.

The young man and the beautiful woman in palace dress standing side by side in front of the dummy fell silent for a while.

Shangguan Lingye looked at Zuo Lingquan calmly, his eyes were clear, he couldn't see what he was thinking, but he was obviously thinking about something.

After a while, she covered her mouth with a "poof—" and laughed, jokingly said:

"Just kidding, the male cultivators in my Iron Head Mansion are all 'hard and mentally handicapped' like Situ shock, and the higher the cultivator, the more rude he grows, and he can't compare to a refined boy like you. Better than you, but I believe you can surpass him, don't let me down."

This smile can be described as a hundred and beautiful.

"Ugh……"

Zuo Lingquan was frightened, he didn't know what to say, and he couldn't stare at Grandma Shangguan's smile. He raised his sword:

"Let's start practicing swordsmanship. If there is anything wrong, please ask senior to give some pointers."

Shangguan Lingye put away his smile, and came to the eaves where he often meditated and cultivated his energy in his childhood.

And in the snowy courtyard, at this moment, the sound of the sword chirping sounded for fourteen consecutive years.
