The wind was blowing gently, and light and thin clouds were moving slowly in the blue sky. Now that it was autumn, the sun's rays were no longer as hot as in midsummer. It was warm and refreshing.
In an open space near Tushan City, Yun Xichen kept waving his sword in the air. It had to be said that Yaya's ability to move was very strong. On the second day of the bet with Yun Xichen, she had already given Yun Xichen a heavy sword.
The appearance of the sword was not much different from that of an ordinary longsword. Due to the different materials used, it was several times more serious than an ordinary longsword.
The length of the heavy sword was almost the same as his height, which was somewhat out of sync with his body shape. However, Yun Xichen did not feel that the heavy sword in his hand was too heavy. There was a clever balance between each move. There was no pause, but there was an indomitable momentum.
There was a faint bloody aura in the sword move. This aura was not violent, but extremely murderous. It was an aura that only people who had killed on the battlefield would have.
After finishing the morning's work in Tushan Inn, Yun Xichen had an afternoon's rest and did not delay his cultivation. For Yun Xichen, who was penniless, this was a very advantageous condition.
After the last swing of the sword, Yun Xichen retracted his stance and heaved a sigh of relief. He wiped the fine sweat on his forehead and stabbed the heavy sword into the ground beside him. Then, he untied the water bottle from his waist and downed it happily. Yun Xichen wiped the water from his mouth and hung the water bottle back on his waist. Without looking at it, he held the hilt of his sword and swung it back.
A piece of ice shattered under the heavy sword's strike, and dozens of ice shards of different sizes scattered in front of Yun Xichen.
Yaya opened her mouth wide and asked in disbelief," How did you know?”
Yun Xichen nodded." My intuition.”
"Who would believe that?" Yaya mumbled, not believing Yun Xichen's explanation. To her, it was just a perfunctory explanation.
Yun Xichen was not lying. He could not explain this, so how could he? He said that he had developed this instinct on the battlefield? No one would believe it.
"Believe it or not, it's up to you." Yun Xichen sat down on the spot and placed the sword flat on his knees to loosen his wrist. When he saw Yaya running over and picking him up by the collar, he could not help but be speechless at this fierce little girl." Miss Yaya, you are-"
"Fight with me again!" Yaya pulled a long face and tried her best to put on a dignified look. However, there was a sense of contrast and cuteness.
Yun Xichen shook his head." No."”
When Yaya heard that, she exerted even more force on her hand, almost face-to-face with Yun Xichen." Why?”
"It's meaningless." Yun Xichen pushed Yaya back and shrugged." I didn't cultivate the sword to win.”
"What's that?" Yaya let go of Yun Xichen and asked curiously. In Yaya's understanding, the rest spell was used for sparring other than dealing with enemies.
Yun Xichen blurted out without thinking," Stabilize the country.”
"What do you mean?" Yaya did not understand what Yun Xichen meant.
Yun Xichen put his sword aside and stood up. He looked at the mountains in the distance with a deep gaze and his leisurely tone was filled with respect." Our ancestors used their sabers to defeat the enemy and used their swords to pacify the world. If they can do it, so can we.”
Yaya blinked, her head full of question marks. She understood every word Yun Xichen said, but why did she not understand the meaning behind them when they were put together?
"That's why I said, go back and study more. Don't always think about winning others. Knowledge is power.”Yun Xichen patted Yaya's head and said earnestly. She sheathed her sword and turned to leave.
"He touched my head?" Yaya first looked at Yun Xichen's back in a daze, then she rushed over angrily." Big bastard, other than my sister, no one can touch my head!”
She pounced on Yun Xichen's back and bit his ear.
"It hurts! Let go!" Yun Xichen waved his hands and feet, wanting to get Yaya off his body. He never expected Yaya to bite his ear. He wanted to pull Yaya off his body, but the harder he tried, the tighter Yaya bit him. Yun Xichen wanted to cry but had no tears.
It was said that when a scholar met a soldier, it was hard to reason with him. When a soldier met an unreasonable person, it was also hard to reason with him!
Yun Xichen walked out of Tushan Medical Hall after tying up his wound. He wanted to rub his ears, but the faint pain in his ears made him give up on the idea.
"This little girl is too ruthless." Yun Xichen's lips twitched. For the first time, she had a new understanding of Yaya's destructive power.
The sun was setting in the west, approaching the horizon. The red clouds in the sky showed signs of darkness. The light became dim, and night was about to fall.
After buying some food on the street, Yun Xichen returned to the courtyard where he lived. He lit the lights in the house and placed the heavy sword on the table. Yun Xichen recalled the ancient seal scripts that enhanced strength in his mind and gestured on the heavy sword.
After finishing dinner, Yun Xichen tore a piece of paper into the same width as the heavy sword and wrote ancient seal characters on it. After the ink dried, he stuck the seal characters on the sword and picked up the hammer and chisel. Yun Xichen began to carve the seal characters on the sword.
Compared to other words, seal characters were more like symbols. This explained why seal characters, together with ancient spells, had the ability to borrow the power of heaven and earth.
Yun Xichen continued to chant in an ancient language that was more like a poem. Accompanied by Yun Xichen's low groan, a breeze appeared out of thin air and surrounded him. It swam happily and nimbly, following Yun Xichen's movements and injecting into the ancient seal script carved on the sword.
The ancient seal script would be completed when the last stroke landed. After a flash of blue light, it would become dull and ordinary, waiting to be activated in battle.
After carving the first ancient seal script, Yun Xichen rubbed his eyes and prepared to rest for a while before continuing.
There was a gentle knock on the door. Yun Xichen put down his sword and opened the door.
"Miss Rongrong?" Yun Xichen was stunned when she saw Rongrong standing at the door." It's so late. Why are you here?"”
Rongrong Wenwen stood quietly at the door and handed a medicine bottle to Yun Xichen. Her clear voice was apologetic." I heard that you were bitten by Sister Yaya."”At this point, Rong Rong held back the smile on her face." I'm here to deliver your medicine and apologize to you on behalf of Sister Yaya."”
"It's okay. It's nothing." Yun Xichen touched his bandaged ears and recalled the injuries he had suffered on the battlefield when he fought to the death with the enemy. This was child's play.
Rong Rong's smiling expression did not change. She reminded Yun Xichen intentionally or unintentionally," But I heard that you kept complaining about Sister Yaya on the way back.”
Rong Rong did not finish her sentence, but Yun Xichen could imagine that Yaya would immediately rush to his house to settle the score with him.
Little demon! Yun Xichen's lips twitched, and his shoulders slumped as he stepped aside." Alright, why are you looking for me? Let's talk inside."”
" Alright, Brother Xichen." Rong Rong's smile became even brighter as she walked into Yun Xichen's room.
Yun Xichen rolled his eyes when he heard her call him " Brother Xichen ". It was really awkward for a girl shorter than him to call him " brother ".
"What do you want to drink?" As soon as he asked, Yun Xichen awkwardly realized that other than water, he had nothing to drink." Sorry, I only have water here.”
"Don't worry about it." Rong Rong's attention was now focused on the heavy sword that Yun Xichen had placed on the table.
The surface of the heavy sword looked ordinary, but the inscription on the sword was what Rong Rong was most interested in. The mysterious power that had appeared in Mud Mountain just now had come from Yun Xichen. The seal characters on the sword were bright and strong, which made Rong Rong even more convinced that the power must have something to do with Yun Xichen.
