Sword Qi to the Sky

Chapter 342 The so-called genius

The chaos of demons caused the West Sea to experience a disaster, but after this disaster, the cohesion of the practitioners in the West Sea was unprecedented. After more than a year of demon-slaying operations, the islands in the West Sea are now full of vitality.

Li Fan went to the Sun Palace. With the relationship with Mo Yang and the grace of saving him, in the future, if there were any changes in the world, the Sun and Moon Palaces would be able to help.

The Dali Dynasty has ruled the world for a thousand years and has a profound foundation, and has united many aristocratic families. Today, in the Dali Imperial City, many prosperous families have close ties with the royal family.

Therefore, Li Fan needs to prepare for a rainy day.

Xihuang Island was once little known to the public. The island master of Xihuang Island lived in seclusion, practicing Buddhism and teaching his disciples.

But now that Xihuang Island has entered the world, it is naturally familiar to people, especially this time when the demon was slain. Everyone has also seen the strength of Xihuang Island, especially the island master of Xihuang Island, who is a top existence that is not weaker than the masters of the Sun and Moon Palaces.

After the chaos of demons in the West Sea was resolved, many sword practitioners in the West Sea rushed to Xihuang Island to learn the way of the sword. Since then, Xihuang Island has gradually become prosperous.

And now, the tenth-ranked swordsman in the world, Gu Jinghong, went to Xihuang Island to ask for swords, which shocked the West Sea. Countless cultivators came upon hearing the news, and the outer area of ​​Xihuang Island was filled with all kinds of ships as far as the eye could see.

Many practitioners came to Xidi Island, and even quite a few disciples of Xidi Palace. The Palace Master of Xidi Palace, Liu Zonglin, has also arrived now and is staying on Xihuang Island to watch the ceremony.

There are endless ships on the seashore, and practitioners from all directions come in groups of three or five. Some are drinking and chatting, some are fighting with swords, and some are practicing martial arts. It is very lively.

Among the crowd, there was a ship coming from the Western Emperor Palace. A group of people stood at the bow, looking around at the crowd.

"This event has attracted many monks from the West Sea to watch, but it's also a mixed bag, with all kinds of people sneaking in." A young monk looked at some fights in the distance, with a bit of disdain in his eyes.

"They are all people who like to join in the fun. For them, this is also a topic for bragging in the future." The person next to him said with a smile: "It is rumored that Gu Jinghong brought his direct disciple here. There is only one person, who is about the same age as us, but is already a sword cultivator at the peak of the Condensation Pill Realm, with extraordinary talent. This time, Gu Jinghong brought his disciple to ask for swords, probably to make his disciple famous."

“I wonder how he compares to Yuwen Jing?” Back in the Western Emperor Palace, Yuwen Jing, the swordsman from Xihuang Island, had given them quite a shock. At least among the swordsmen in the Western Emperor Palace, no one could compare to him.

"Although Yuwen Jing is also extremely talented, I'm afraid it's not enough. After all, there are sword cultivators on Xihuang Island who are more outstanding than Yuwen Jing."

Beside her, Song Siyu was lost in thought. A face involuntarily emerged in her mind. The man in white was lingering. He was her nightmare and her mortal enemy, but he was so dazzling that she couldn't help but think of him when she heard the word "genius".

The unremarkable young man whom she once looked down upon later displayed a talent that, at least from her current perspective, no one could match.

She was once hailed as a genius in the Western Emperor's Palace, but she was nothing in front of Yuwen Jing. In their eyes, Yuwen Jing was a child of destiny, but in front of that man, he was eclipsed.

Genius? But it's just a foil.

Why would the Song family become a mortal enemy with such a person?

Thinking of this, Song Siyu felt inexplicably uncomfortable. She also knew that it was impossible to avenge her.

Whenever he entered the Western Emperor's Palace, the Palace Master would receive him personally.

At this time, there was a noise coming from behind.

Many people turned around to look, and someone asked, "Who's here?"

"I don't know, seems to be a well-known monk?" someone replied.

"Huh?" Upon hearing this, the people from the Western Emperor Palace looked back and saw that the boats on the beach behind them involuntarily made way, leaving a sea route in the middle. Cheers were heard in the distance, and it seemed that the person who came was very prestigious.

In the middle of the divided sea, a small boat was seen slowly moving towards this side. Some people cheered, while many people asked in confusion, "Who is coming?"

The figures on the boat had outstanding temperaments. The young man in white who was in the lead was extremely handsome and elegant, while the two women beside him were as beautiful as fairies.

"You don't know this person?" Someone laughed loudly and said, "The chaos of demons in the West Sea was quelled because of him."

"The genius swordsman who invited the world's number one swordsman?"

"Yes, it was him. Not only did he summon the Xuanyuan Sword, he himself is also extremely talented. He was invincible when he first entered the Condensation Pill Realm." Someone said expectantly, "Now that Gu Jinghong and his disciples have come to ask for the sword, and he has also come at this time, this trip to Xihuang Island is even more exciting."

The boat moved slowly forward and cheers continued.

On the boat of the Western Emperor Palace, Song Siyu saw the familiar figure again, but she lowered her eyes and dared not look directly at him.

On the light boat, Luo Qingyan saw the cheers from both sides and laughed, "Is it so popular now?"

"Nowadays, even if no one has seen him in the West Sea, I'm afraid no one has not heard of him." Meng Hong responded with a smile. If he uses the world's number one sword to kill Jiuying and solve the problem of the West Sea, who in the West Sea doesn't know him? Several people also felt proud of it, and their backs were straight.

"How are you these days, young man?" someone asked Li Fan.

"Very good." Li Fan nodded with a smile.

"The person next to you, young man, must be Miss Lu, the Holy Maiden of the Moon Palace. I heard that you two are both practicing in the mountains. You are truly a match made in heaven." Li Fan had become numb to the flattery around him, and Lu Yuan's eyes also showed a little embarrassment.

"Young man, are you here to ask about swordsmanship in Xihuang Island?"

"Lishan is the world's number one holy land of swordsmanship, Xihuang Island is the number one holy land of swordsmanship in the West Sea, and Gu Jinghong, who ranked tenth on the Sword Saint List, has come with his disciples. Xihuang Island is really bustling."

Li Fan heard the sounds around him, responded without any flaws, and the boat continued to move forward.

At this time, towards the coast, several people were seen walking with swords, and the swords shuttled across the waves, as if they were walking on the waves. Several of them had swords on their backs, and they had extraordinary temperaments.

"A swordsman from Xihuang Island." Everyone looked surprised when they saw the figure coming on a sword. Is he coming for Li Fan?

"There are many rumors about that swordsman in the West Sea now, but is he really as powerful as the rumors say? Or is it just because he is a disciple of Lishan and knows about the Xuanyuan Sword that he is so powerful?"

Li Fan looked forward and saw the figures coming towards him. The leader looked to be in his thirties, with a square figure, giving a calm feeling, and carrying a big sword on his back.

"But Young Master Li Fan?" the visitor asked in a loud voice.

"It's me." Li Fan responded across the sea.

The man bowed to Li Fan and said, "I am Lan Li from Xihuang Island. I am here to welcome you on the orders of my master. You are welcome to visit Xihuang Island."

"Thank you." Li Fan smiled in return and the boat continued to move forward, but he saw that Lan Li and the others did not give way or lead them to the island, but stood there motionless.

Li Fan even noticed that there was a sword aura around Lan Li, and the eyes of the people behind him looked at Li Fan with some hostility.

Obviously, they all knew what happened at the demon-slaying conference.

"I heard that the young man is unparalleled in swordsmanship and invincible in the Condensation Pill Realm. I, Lan, have been practicing hard on the island for many years and pride myself on my extraordinary swordsmanship. Today, I have the opportunity, so I will ask you about swordsmanship here and see the style of the swordsman prodigy of Lishan." Lan Li looked at Li Fan and said.

"We would also like to learn your sword skills." The sword cultivators behind Lan Li also spoke up, with sword intent lingering around their bodies.

"Isn't the Demon-Slaying Conference enough? You say you are welcoming guests, but you come to provoke us. You are so boring." Huang Xiong behind Li Fan shouted loudly.

"Who are you, you have no right to speak here." A young swordsman behind Lan Li had a glare like a sword and shouted coldly at Huang Xiong.

Li Fan frowned, but saw that Huang Xiong was already walking on the waves. A warrior with a golden body could go to the sky and into the sea.

He stood on the water, looked forward and said: "If you want to ask about the sword, ask me first."

Lan Li frowned. The sword intent from the sword cultivator behind him had already penetrated his body and was whistling above the sea. The people watching around him were inexplicably excited.

Before Li Fan drew his sword, the burly man behind him walked out.

Lan Li looked at Li Fan with a slightly displeased look. He asked for advice on the way of the sword, but the other party was a little arrogant.

Behind him, a young sword cultivator walked out. He walked forward on the waves, sword energy surging. He stared at Huang Xiong and said sharply, "I am a sword cultivator from Xihuang Island. Even if I am unknown outside, I am still a sword genius. How can I accept such humiliation?"

The sword energy was like a tide, rushing towards Huang Xiong. Above the sea, the sky was filled with sword shadows killing him. In just a moment, the roar of the sword energy could be heard, drowning out the sound of the waves.

The young swordsman moved towards Huang Xiong like a shadow. The sky was filled with sword lights that swept over like a tide, overwhelming him. Huang Xiong's body was submerged in the swords, but everyone saw that he did not move.

A ray of light bloomed above the sea. The young swordsman slashed down with his sword, and a crack appeared on the sea surface.

"Ding..." Everyone saw that Huang Xiong's body was shining with golden light, his blood and energy were shining like the stars, and his mysterious skills were running like a golden body. The sword hit him but failed to break his golden body.

Looking at the young swordsman's arm, Huang Xiong had grabbed it. He looked horrified, and saw a pair of copper bell-like eyes staring at him, saying: "The so-called genius is just the threshold to see him."

After saying that, he threw a punch. The sound of bones breaking was heard, and the figure was blasted into the sea.
