Yun Ting smiled foolishly as he fantasized.
However, he snapped back to his senses before long and sighed with a vexed expression. “However, when can Junior Sister Beiming ever become a Perfected Immortal with that Martial Dao that she’s cultivating?”
“What if I’m already an Immortal King by the time Junior Sister Beiming advances to the Perfected One realm? How can we compete at that time?”
At that thought, Yun Ting looked at Su Zimo resentfully. “And you! You cultivated the Immortal and Buddhist Daos yourself but let your eldest disciple cultivate that bullsh*t Martial Dao.”
Su Zimo said indifferently, “Go back and prepare well. You won’t be able to wait long for this battle.”
He had been paying attention to Beiming Xue’s cultivation the entire time.
During this period of time, with his help, Beiming Xue’s physique and bloodline were reborn and her Fate Ring realm was infinitely close to perfected!
Beiming Xue had a breakthrough in the cultivation of the three great sword arts as well.
Right now, all she lacked was an opportunity to advance to the True Martial realm!
“I hope so.”
Yun Ting sighed softly, still in disbelief.
When Su Zimo saw that, he said meaningfully, “Brother Yun, there’s something I have to remind you of. My intention in arranging for Beiming to spar with you was not to matchmake the two of you or find an opponent for you.”
“Then what was it for?”
Yun Ting asked.
Su Zimo said slowly, “When Beiming becomes a Perfected Immortal, she needs to find someone to test her sword and prove herself in the Sword World. You’re the most suitable person for that!”
In reality, even Su Zimo did not know how much Beiming Xue’s Sword Dao cultivation would increase after she entered the True Martial realm.
The best way was to find a suitable person for her to test her sword with.
Yun Ting was that person.
“You want to use me to test her sword?”
The moment Yun Ting heard that, he exploded and sneered, “You and your disciple look down on others too much! You’ve indeed defeated me twice, but you expect your disciple to do the same and even test her sword on me?!”
“From a certain perspective, Beiming is not my disciple.”
Su Zimo said, “She’s the number one successor of the Martial Dao and you’re only her first obstacle in the Martial Dao and the Sword Dao.”
“Alright!”
Yun Ting sneered, “I’d like to see how much of a surprise Junior Sister Beiming can give me.”
“It won’t be a surprise.”
Su Zimo shook his head gently. “When the time comes, just don’t disappoint her.”
Yun Ting: “…”
Yun Ting was furious and gritted his teeth. Without saying a word, he turned around and left.
If he continued talking to Su Zimo, he was worried that he would not be able to hold it in and would attack Su Zimo!
The moment he left the cave abode, he saw w.a.n.g Dong and Sword Immortal Tai Lai standing side by side not far away, talking about something.
When they saw Yun Ting appear, the two of them welcomed him.
“Junior Brother Yun, did something happen?”
w.a.n.g Dong was very observant and asked when he saw Yun Ting’s expression.
“They’ll be fine.”
Yun Ting waved his hand and changed the topic. “Senior Brothers, what are you doing here?”
The two of them exchanged glances. w.a.n.g Dong said, “Junior Brother Yun, since you have a deep relations.h.i.+p with Fellow Daoist Su Zhu, we’re wondering if you can persuade him to not continue torturing Junior Sister Beiming.”
“Even the eight Peak Masters praised Junior Sister Beiming’s talent in the Sword Dao. We’re worried that if she continues to cultivate like this, she’ll be crippled.”
“Crippled?”
When Yun Ting heard that, he was infuriated and mocked, “How can she be crippled? The Martial Dao is so incredibly powerful. When Junior Sister Beiming becomes a Perfected Immortal, even I won’t be her match!”
w.a.n.g Dong and Sword Immortal Tai Lai were confused by Yun Ting’s reb.u.t.tal. They did not know where Yun Ting’s temper came from.
Yun Ting said, “I’m not going to persuade him. I want to see how Junior Sister Beiming can attract the Perfected One Heavenly Tribulation and become a Perfected Immortal if she can’t condense a Dao Fruit.”
“Well…”
w.a.n.g Dong and Sword Immortal Tai Lai exchanged glances.
Wasn’t Yun Ting chummy with his brother-in-law earlier on? Did they have a fight?
Pausing for a moment, Yun Ting continued, “In addition, Senior Brothers, it’s better for you to restrain the sword cultivators of the various Sword Peaks. Don’t bother having those of the same cultivation realm challenge him lest they embarra.s.s themselves.”
“Even if those of the same cultivation realm gather in a formation, they might not be able to win him, let alone fight one-on-one.”
…
Peak of Carnage Sword Peak.
This was the center of Carnage Sword Continent and was also where the sword qi was the strongest. Without a Grotto-heaven cultivation, one could not stand on the peak of the mountain.
At that moment, eight cultivators were gathered at the peak of the mountain. They were either sitting or standing, sipping tea and chatting casually with relaxed expressions.
Among the eight of them, there were seven men and a woman—they were the Peak Masters of the eight Sword Peaks!
The Peak Master of Sever Sword Peak, the only woman among the eight, looked at the figure who was swimming against the current and charging at the sword qi waterfall at the foot of Carnage Sword Peak and sighed gently with a pained expression.
“Beiming Xue has suffered a lot over the past few days.”
“Amitabha.”
The Peak Master of Zen Sword Peak chanted a Buddhist proclamation softly. “However, her physique and bloodline are clearly undergoing a metamorphosis. Although she’s still unable to condense a Dao Fruit, her combat strength is even stronger than before. There shouldn’t be any disadvantages for Beiming Xue.”
“Hmph!”
The Peak Master of Carnage Sword Peak harrumphed coldly. “If that wasn’t the case, I would have chased her master out of the Sword World a long time ago. I wouldn’t care even if I was criticized for it!”
“Your temper’s still the same as always.” This chapter’s initial release occurred on the N0v3l-B1n site.
The others smiled.
The Peak Master of Extreme Sword Peak said, “Speaking of which, her master is from the Heavenly World like Yun Ting. To think that he has such a relations.h.i.+p with Yun Ting.”
The Peak Master of Illusory Sword Peak frowned. “I heard that Yun Ting’s sister is one of the four great fairies of the Heavenly World. I’ve never heard of her having a Dao companion.”
“I’m not sure about that.”
The others shook their heads slightly.
“The Heavenly World…”
The Peak Master of Fiend Sword Peak pondered for a moment. “I heard that a Creation Green Lotus appeared in the Heavenly World and condensed into a human body. It has already cultivated to Grade 12.”
“I’ve heard about that too.”
The Peak Master of Five Elements Sword Peak had a regretful expression. “Unfortunately, that cultivator with the Green Lotus Body was forced into the Emperor’s Tomb and died.”
“How precious is a Grade 12 Creation Green Lotus. Even Emperor Immortal Vanquis.h.i.+ng did not manage to nurture it back then.”
“Sigh.”
The Peak Master of Tyrant Sword Peak said, “It’s a pity for that paragon. He can only blame fate for playing tricks on him. If he was born in our Sword World, he wouldn’t have ended up like this.”
“That’s right.”
The Peak Master of Sever Sword Peak said, “If he was born in the Sword World, the experts of the eight Sword Peaks would definitely protect him and allow him to grow smoothly, restoring the glory of Emperor Immortal Vanquis.h.i.+ng back then!”
At the mention of Emperor Immortal Vanquis.h.i.+ng, the few of them looked at the Peak Master of Carnage Sword Peak instinctively.
After all, Carnage Sword Peak beneath them was established because of Emperor Immortal Vanquis.h.i.+ng.
At that moment, the Peak Master of Carnage Sword Peak looked at the withered lotus flowers growing on the peak with a conflicted expression and mixed emotions.
On the mountain peak, the sword qi was violent and sharp. Even Perfected Immortals could not withstand it. However, the withered lotus flowers had been growing here the entire time and it was a strange scene.
The Peak Master of Carnage Sword Peak revealed a reminiscent expression and sighed heavily. “These lotus flowers were personally planted by Emperor Immortal Vanquis.h.i.+ng when he established Carnage Sword Peak back then.”
“Unfortunately, after Emperor Immortal Vanquis.h.i.+ng died and the Creation Green Lotus shattered, the lotus flowers withered and never bloomed again.”
