Xiao Feng and Xiao Zhu left the inn after renaming themselves the Eternal Shadows. Xiao Feng had bestowed each of them with soothing cultivation techniques. With their new identity, they were now renowned as a group with the sole mission of cultivating and growing stronger while awaiting their main assignment.Xiao Zhu had taken up the mantle of leader for the Eternal Shadows, with Lie Wei serving as the leader in his absence. Liu Ying, known for his tenacity and thirst for strength, became the vice leader.Late at night, Xiao Zhu grew concerned about not being able to rest properly since they had to depart soon. He asked Xiao Feng, "Little Uncle Xiao, why aren't we sleeping at the inn?"Xiao Feng replied, "Obviously, I don't want any complications to arise there. We can return once we've finished what we need to do."Blossom Peak interjected, "Why does it always become chaotic whenever you're with this master of yours?"Feeling sleepy, Xiao Zhu rubbed his face and said, "Even I'm con
Zhao Lusi couldn't help but snicker at Xiao Feng. He knew Xiao Feng was strong, but was he really strong enough to break through their sect's most treasured formation? "No," he thought to himself, doubting Xiao Feng's abilities."You know what? I thought you would be wise enough to discern things on your own, but it seems you're even more foolish than I had thought," Zhao Lusi mocked.Meanwhile, Xiao Feng picked up a twig from the ground and whispered softly, "Vertical Slash."At first, it appeared as though the qi slash couldn't penetrate the barrier. But then, Xiao Feng smiled confidently as the barrier shattered with a single strike, sending them all flying in different directions. Blood streamed down their mouths from the recoil."Break for me! Hahaha! Do you think this mere barrier could withstand even a tenth of my power? Dream on," Xiao Feng declared, his expression transforming into that of a predator ready to devour its prey.Immediately, fear gripped the disciples that Zhao
Inside the Heavenly Sword Sect, Xiao Zhu walked closely behind Xiao Feng as they entered the prestigious sect.Lin Yin elegantly opened his hand fan and strutted with pride, whistling gently in the cool breeze.When Xiao Zhu caught sight of a gigantic sword, he couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, so cool!" A faint blush colored his cheeks."What's so cool about it? It's just a broad sword. You should visit your master's sect and witness the vast beauty and history it holds," Xiao Feng said, sounding ecstatic."Point of correction, it's our sect's protection array!" Li Yin refuted."Well, it's all the same. Judging by its appearance, it looks like a broad sword, which is inferior compared to my sect," Xiao Feng replied.Li Yin glared at him and asked, "Oh... and which sect do you come from? Is it from this province or from a faraway one?""That's not for you to know," Xiao Feng shot back, returning the glare.As they passed by, the female disciples of the sect hailed Lin Yin, while castin
Xuan Ping was already fed up with the fact that Little Xiao Zhu didn't even budge after waking him up for the past few minutes. He let out a sigh, covered Xiao Zhu with a blanket he had infused with his energy, and began to head out.As he reached the entrance of the room they were in, he tried opening the door in the usual way, but it didn't budge. "Wow!" he exclaimed. "This Li Yin bastard thinks he can confine me with this mere seal? Impossible!"With a single touch, he easily broke the seal's restrictions. A cool, fresh breeze rushed in as he took deep breaths. "No wonder they've made so much progress. This location has a good environment, rich with earth energy," he thought.He took a step out of the room and started exploring the entire sect. Once again, he was amazed by its size. It was almost bigger than three cities combined.Xiao Feng noticed a pavilion with a grand gold emblem of a 'SWORD' attached to its entrance. "What does it mean?" he wondered. "Well, I won't know until
[Outer disciple training hall]Excitement filled Little Xiao's heart as he entered the Heavenly Sword Sect training hall, but it all faded as their training didn't give him the feeling he was expecting. Xiao Feng had trained him in his Heavenly Secret Movement, embodying the ferocity of his slashes. He was promised the main teachings that brought about explosive power. In one word, Xiao Zhu was taught based on pure combat techniques.He glanced at each of the disciples as they performed their sword dances and swordplay, holding the tenderness of pure beauty. But Xiao kind of hated the idea as he stared at their performance intently.His eyes caught a glance at a sign that read 'Outer Disciples Training Hall'.Xiao Zhu let out a soft sigh, “No wonder it all looked like child's play in front of me. Well, let's just sit and watch them display. I might as well learn one or two lessons from their performance.”He found a seat and watched as all the disciples were engrossed in what they we
Finally coming to a realization, Xiao Zhu exclaimed, "What! The instructor?""Huh! Can't do it?" Xiao Feng asked with an eerie voice.Xiao Zhu lowered his head and blinked repeatedly.With a soft tone of confidence, Xiao Zhu began to murmur, "For years, I've immersed myself in sword slashes, not some fancy swordplay you lot are used to. My master even pushed me to the extreme, training with real opponents ready to take my life. Losing to you would be a disgrace and a waste of all my efforts, even though... I can't.""I'm ready," he said, addressing the instructor.The pretty lady, along with Xiao Feng, entered the training hall gallantly, standing on the sidelines. She mainly tried to avoid drawing attention among the group of disciples.Xiao Feng wondered why he went along with the pretty lady he had met at 'SWORD'.Twenty minutes ago...Xiao Feng was deeply engrossed in flipping through each manual. Unfortunately, he let out a sigh of disappointment."This can't be right. I've been
The whole disciple shrieked in fear as Xiao Zhu effortlessly attacked three times, securing a straight win. The instructor, unable to bear the embarrassment any longer, grew annoyed."What! Yao Jun of the outer sect was beaten? And not only that, he wasn't even given a chance to fight back? Where the hell did that kid come from?" A disciple exclaimed."I heard he was left completely incapacitated. I doubt he can even move a limb," another disciple chimed in."Damn! I can't believe this is real. Come on, let's go check it out," the disciple suggested, determined to see for himself.Disciples flooded in as the news spread like wildfire throughout the outer grounds. Li Yin stood in the hall, watching with a creepy smile etched on his lips."Now things just got more interesting," he said, his voice filled with anticipation.Zhao Lusi stood behind Li Yin, his face squeezed with dissatisfaction at how things were unfolding. He knew both the master and disciple were strong, having witnessed
Xiao Zhu turned slowly as he locked eyes with the instructor, unsure of how to react as he saw the intense predatory gaze in the instructor's eyes."Now I think I've gone too far," Xiao Zhu muttered softly to himself.The instructor's anger had reached its peak. Fueled by the comments from the spectators, the situation had spiraled out of control, contrary to what the instructor had expected. The crowd watched in shock as the instructor's next move unfolded before them, leaving them all the more astonished."The Heretic Subduing Sword."In a swift motion, he lunged towards the sword rack, grabbing a sword instead of a wooden or training one. He pointed it directly at Xiao Zhu, unleashing a torrent of sword qi that descended upon him."Hey, young disciple, I have trained you for so long. Don't you think it's time to prove your worth? My path is treacherous, only the strong can endure it. Either you follow my path, or you forge your own!"Xiao Zhu looked up at the rain of sword qi comin
