“……Why?”
Hearing Ren Bin’s words, Yue Xu suddenly became nervous.
Her golden elixir was destroyed and she was wounded by the sword.
She had exhausted all her strength just to reach Huazhu Peak.
If I’m still rejected…what’s the difference between that and wasting my future?
Her heart, which had originally relaxed, immediately became tense again.
“Don’t be nervous, relax.”
Ren Bin smiled and said, “Actually, the reason is very simple.”
“As a disciple of Tai Heng Sect, you should have heard some rumors about Hua Zhu Peak, such as…I am the only commander left in Hua Zhu Peak.”
“Hmm…”
Yue Xu nodded.
“In fact, the rumors are true. Not long ago, Huazhu Peak was indeed the only manager of Huazhu Peak, and the entire peak was just me and my two disciples.”
“You should have heard that I am a ‘fallen sword genius’. This rumor is true. My sword intent has disappeared and I am no longer a sword cultivator.”
Yue Xu immediately understood what Ren Bin meant.
All the major peaks belong to the inner sect of Tai Heng Sect…
If you want to join the inner sect, you can only be selected by the elders or the peak masters.
Ren Bin’s meaning was very clear: he couldn’t teach.
“But you should feel lucky.”
Before Yue Xu could react, Ren Bin’s next words came out.
“Now, we do have a sword-cultivating elder in Huazhu Peak.”
Ren Bin pulled Yu Xian’s sleeve, “Look, this is her, and she is also my wife.”
Yue Xu looked up at Yu Xian.
She didn’t know why, but when she looked into her eyes, she felt a chill down her spine.
She quickly looked away.
“If you had joined Huazhu Peak three or four years earlier, you would have heard of her reputation.”
“Yu Xian from Huazhu Peak…She was called the Sword Fairy back then, and her sword power has even reached the eighth level. She is more than qualified to be your master.” “but…..”
Ren Bin narrowed his eyes and smiled and said: “She has only accepted one apprentice in all these years.”
Moreover, this disciple is still lying in an ice coffin, and it is unknown how many years it will take for him to come out.
“So, whether your level can be appreciated by her is still a question.”
He bluntly stated the reality.
There are differences among geniuses.
Maybe in the eyes of others, you are a gifted genius, but in the eyes of some geniuses, you may just be mediocre.
“I see…..”
“Then you two can chat, I’m going to go out first.”
Ren Bin pinched Yu Xian’s palm, and after being glared at by the latter, he quickly left the room in annoyance.
It was already dark at this time.
In the room, the light of the flint was slightly dim.
Perhaps because of the backlight, Yue Xu could not see Yu Xian’s expression clearly.
Perhaps it was because Ren Bin, the conversation starter, suddenly left, and the two of them were silent for a while, not knowing what to say.
Yue Xu couldn’t hold back what was in her mind, and was about to speak, but Yu Xian interrupted her: “I heard from Ren Bin that you learned the first three swords of Guiyi Sword Technique.”
“Yes, it is.”
Yue Xu answered with some nervousness.
“How long have you studied?”
“More than half a month, less than a month.”
“…”
Yu Xian did not say anything, without any intention of praising or belittling, which made Yue Xu feel even more uneasy.
Normally, when she said this to her seniors, they would be shocked and then compete to praise their own talents.
Even Lian Hua was quite satisfied and did not hesitate to give praise.
As for Yu Xian, she didn’t even utter the words “okay” or “so-so”.
Could it be that, in Yu Xian’s eyes, my learning talent is…mediocre?
Yu Xian finally spoke again, but it was not a comment, but the next question: “What do you think of the Guiyi Sword Technique?”
“A sword technique that is unrivaled in the world…”
Yue Xu pinched the quilt: “After learning the Guiyi Sword Technique, I feel that my sword intention and my practice are like…entering a new world.”
“It overturned my cognition, made me realize the mistakes I made in my ten years of sword training, and made my sword land in the right place every time…”
“I feel that if I learn it, I may be able to become an unrivaled swordsman in the future!”
Yue Xu suddenly realized that he had said too much.
“Hang, sorry!”
Moreover, the person in front of her is a genius with even greater talent than her.
Would she feel offended if he told her that he wanted to become a sword saint?
“It’s a good idea.”
The expected sarcasm or scolding did not appear.
Instead, Yu Xian quietly praised her ideals.
“No, I was too arrogant…”
“Arrogant?”
Yu Xian shook her head.
“Since you are learning swordsmanship, why don’t you want to become a swordsman?”
“This is not arrogance, this is the ideal that one should have when learning swordsmanship.”
Yu Xian closed her eyes.
“But you said that the Guiyi Sword Technique is a unique sword technique in the world?”
“…..Um.”
“You are wrong.”
Yu Xian shook her head.
“This sword technique is very ordinary.”
“But…..”
“Perhaps for you, it is a fine book, but for me…or for a swordsman at my level, it is worthless.”
“Its disadvantages are simply too many.”
Yu Xian paused, as if recalling something.
“For example, between the second and third swords, those two swords were not connected at all. If you don’t know how to adapt, you will probably be defeated.”
For a sword cultivator, having his moves broken by his opponent is tantamount to being sentenced to death.
Because all your subsequent moves will be controlled by your opponent, and it will be difficult for you to have a chance to turn things around.
Yue Xu opened her lips slightly, but couldn’t say anything.
Because she couldn’t find any fault with “Gui Yi Sword Art”, but she couldn’t deny Yu Xian’s words. “besides.”
“As a sword cultivator, you actually said…you have to rely on a book of sword techniques to be unrivaled in the world.”
Yu Xian narrowed her eyes, “Whether it’s the mental method, the sword method, or the sword method that combines the two…they all belong to others.”
“If you really want to become a sword master, you shouldn’t rely on these things so much, but rely on your own perception and creation.”
“From now on, it should be others who learn your swordsmanship, not the swordsmanship you have learned.”
Let me ask you, which generation of sword master did not leave behind his own sword skills?
Another question is, which generation of sword masters relied on the sword skills of other generations of sword masters to become the best in the world?
“I, I understand.”
After listening to Yu Xian’s words, Yue Xu lowered his head, convinced by her words.
“Okay, have a good rest.”
Yu Xian stood up.
“Please wait a moment!”
Seeing Yu Xian preparing to leave, Yue Xu was completely panicked.
Could it be that the other party has become extremely disappointed with me and is unwilling to accept me as his disciple?
“What’s up?”
“Can you…can you accept me as your apprentice?”
Her voice was almost pleading, “I, I will change, please, give me a chance.”
“….”
Yu Xian’s eyes became a little strange, “I didn’t say I wouldn’t accept you as my apprentice.”
“You mean…” “I meant later.”
Yue Xu’s mood was like a roller coaster.
“I don’t think I can see through you with just a few words.”
“Come back to see me when you are better. You can recover at Huazhu Peak before I reply to you.”
“I see.”
Yue Xu quickly replied.
“Rest assured, we’ll talk about the rest later.”
“You are too impetuous now. Calm your mind before learning sword.”
Yu Xian didn’t give Yue Xu another chance to speak and walked out of the house.
“Calm down…”
Yue Xu muttered to himself, looking at the long sword placed on the bedside, and fell into deep thought.
