The First Sword of the Universe

Chapter 526 Young Master Xu, do you want the throne of the Great Song Dynasty?
Compared to Wu Yazi's near-death injuries, the scars on Li Qiushui's face were insignificant.

There was no need to confine herself within the ice. After circulating her internal energy for several cycles, she felt a tingling sensation on both cheeks, which then turned into an intense, bone-deep itch.
In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.

The scars, which retained the power of the Life and Death Talisman and were difficult to remove or repair, were thus healed.

Li Qiushui opened her eyes, reached her hands under the white veil, and stroked her smooth, delicate cheeks, which were as smooth as a peeled egg. Her eyes sparkled with intense surprise and excitement.

For a woman, her beauty is extremely important.

Now that her beauty has been regained, the joy in her heart is beyond words.

She suddenly stood up, twirling and dancing while laughing loudly, "Hahahahahahaha!"

Unwittingly, the white veil on her face fluttered up and fell to the ground to the side, revealing a beautiful face that bore an eight or nine-tenths resemblance to Wang Yuyan.

Compared to Wang Yuyan's increasingly ethereal and otherworldly aura, Li Qiushui's temperament is more charming, passionate, and alluring.

Even with a white veil covering her face, she could still captivate with her eyes; now that the veil has been removed, revealing her fairy-like face, her allure is even more astonishing.

The writing brushes, inkstones, paper, inkstones, doors, windows, and bookshelves in the study—these inanimate objects—all became bright and lively because of her joyful smile.

The invisible air and the sunlight streaming in through the open window both appeared bright and captivating because of her dance.

The entire study was transformed into a paradise on earth because of Li Qiushui's happiness and joy.

This is a powerful and concentrated mental force that influences and alters the external environment.

For a long time.

Li Qiushui managed to calm herself down and turned to Xu Xingchen, bowing respectfully: "Thank you for your kindness, Master Xu!"

Xu Xingchen stood up, cupped his hands in greeting, and said with a smile, "Congratulations, senior!"

Li Qiushui quickly bid farewell to Xu Xingchen, left the study, and leaped into the sky.

They vanished in the blink of an eye.

Clearly, the brief moment of laughter earlier was not enough to express the turbulent emotions within her.

She needs to find a secluded place to vent her frustrations.

after one day.

Li Qiushui returned, no longer needing to conceal her face with a white veil, and walked openly and honestly through the manor.

She wanted to make her beauty rival Wu Xingyun's, to make them both shine.

After their initial astonishment, the women of Lingjiu Palace, the disciples of the Deaf-Mute Sect, and Mr. Congbian Su Xinghe quickly accepted the scene.

When Wang Yuyan and Murong Fu saw Li Qiushui's true face, they were more shocked.

Wang Yuyan's appearance is seven or eight parts similar to her mother Li Qingluo, but eight or nine parts similar to her maternal grandmother Li Qiushui.

If it weren't for the large age gap and the stark difference in their temperaments, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they are quite similar.

Perhaps it was because Li Qiushui had regained her beauty that her gloomy mood dissipated, and her overall mood became much brighter, making her much more enthusiastic towards her granddaughter, Wang Yuyan.

When Xiao Feng saw Li Qiushui, he merely raised an eyebrow and showed little emotional reaction.

In his mind, wasn't it perfectly normal for a grandmother and granddaughter to look alike?!

His thoughts quickly returned to martial arts.

The Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms created by Hong Qigong from the Legend of the Condor Heroes world, and the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms he practiced, both originated from the same source, but they are different from each other.

After a period of research and practice.

He easily mastered the new Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms to a high level, and had already integrated it extensively with the original Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms.

Its power increased again and again, becoming so strong that he felt he could hardly control it.

After learning the Qiankun Great Shift technique, Murong Fu quickly developed his own Dou Zhuan Xing Yi divine skill to its peak, surpassing his master and becoming increasingly adept at it, with ever-changing techniques.

Both Xiao Feng and Murong Fu felt that their martial arts skills had made great progress.

Xiao Feng couldn't contain himself and wanted to spar with Xu Xingchen, but Xu Xingchen politely declined.

The reasons given were quite sufficient, allowing him to continue his contemplation and cultivation, and that there would eventually be a day when he could fully utilize his abilities.

That day will come soon!

Xiao Feng and Murong Fu sensed an impending great battle from Xu Xingchen's words. Their hearts were heavy, yet they were also filled with interest, and they became even more focused on their cultivation.

In the cave.

When Wu Xingyun saw Li Qiushui, who no longer wore a white veil to cover her face, he sneered repeatedly, looking down on her as if she were nothing.

No matter how I look at it, I just can't stand it.

The resort quickly returned to peace.

The stone statues on both cliffs were all painted, and the clanging and banging of the chisels disappeared.

It's quieter than before!
Until a month later.

In the frost-covered cave, a crystal ice ball over ten feet in size cracked open, and then scattered sparkling fragments all over the ground with a series of crackling sounds.

A middle-aged man with black hair and beard and handsome features stepped out from there.

His gaze shifted, revealing an inner radiance.

He was full of vitality, with an ethereal and otherworldly air, unlike ordinary people.

Wu Xingyun and Li Qiushui, who were waiting on both sides, suddenly stood up, their eyes shining with two candlelight-like lights as they looked at Wu Yazi with starlight.

"Junior brother, your injuries are completely healed?!"

"Senior brother, I'm so glad to see you again!"

Faced with the two women's joyful eyes, Wu Yazi laughed and said calmly, "That's right, senior sister, junior sister, my injuries have healed completely. I'm sorry to have troubled you."

Wu Xingyun nodded happily: "It's good that you're fully recovered! It's good that you're fully recovered!"

After all, she had spent several months with Wu Yazi, and now she was simply happy for her junior brother's recovery.

Li Qiushui had no recent experience of sitting down and discussing Taoism with Wuyazi, nor had she personally examined how serious Wuyazi's injuries were.

Seeing Wuyazi alive again today, the joy in my heart is completely different from that of Wu Xingyun.

"Senior brother, it's been so many years. You are still as stunningly handsome and timeless as ever."

Li Qiushui openly expressed her longing over the years: "Senior brother, do you know? Over the years, I've missed you so much, I'm almost going crazy with longing for you."

Wu Xingyun sneered from the side, "Junior Sister, your words are still full of lies, just like before."

"If you truly missed your junior brother, why would you marry the emperor of the Western Xia Kingdom and even bear him a son?"

Li Qiushui glanced at Wu Xingyun, then turned her gaze back to her senior brother Wu Yazi, her expression sorrowful as she said, "During that time, my senior brother went out on business and suddenly disappeared. I thought he had done something to wrong me, so he didn't want to see me and our daughter anymore."

That's why he lost his mind and went mad, and did something wrong.

"Senior brother, you will forgive me, right?"

"Ha!" Wu Xingyun laughed loudly, "You've cuckolded my junior brother, he'll never forgive you!"

"I advise you to give up on the idea of ​​getting back together with your junior brother and leave obediently; that's the right thing to do."

Li Qiushui glared at Wu Xingyun: "Senior brother hasn't even spoken yet, and senior sister is already trying to separate us again. Isn't that a bit too domineering?"

Then, her gaze softened again, but her words pierced Wu Xingyun's heart like a poisonous thorn: "Back then, my senior brother couldn't stand your domineering and unreasonable behavior, so he chose me as his wife." "In those years, my senior brother and I lived in seclusion in the Sword Lake Palace on Wuliang Mountain in Dali, playing the zither and flute together day and night, practicing swordplay under the moon. We lived a happy and carefree life."

"Senior sister, you can't even imagine the joy I felt."

"Bitch, you're looking for death!"

Wu Xingyun was furious. His eyes flashed with a sharp light, his clothes billowed, and a fierce and domineering aura soared into the sky, filling the entire cave.

In an instant, a palm strike was delivered.

The palm print, as large as a millstone, roared towards Li Qiushui opposite. Midway, it split into six, like exploding flowers, curving and arcing, rushing towards Li Qiushui in the center from all directions.

This move is one of Wu Xingyun's signature techniques: the Tianshan Six Yang Palm.

"You think I'm afraid of you?"

Li Qiushui snorted coldly, her white robes fluttering as she unleashed six white streaks that danced in the air, changing direction and charging menacingly toward the six palm prints.

Wuya Zi, standing in the middle, had a bitter smile on his face. He couldn't just stand by and watch his senior sister and junior sister fight in front of him without doing anything.

"Stop it!"

Accompanied by a helpless sound, immense internal energy erupted from within him, swirling around his body before transforming into a massive vortex that hummed and spun rapidly.

The Six Palm Seals of the Six Yang Palms of Tianshan
Six incredibly agile white rainbows.
At the same time, they were swept up and swallowed by this huge vortex.

Wu Yazi stretched out his hands.

The enormous vortex surrounding him immediately shrank at a visible speed and split in two, transferring to the palms of his two hands, transforming into two small black vortices.

Within one of the vortexes, six small palm prints were faintly visible, fiercely impacting the area.

Inside another vortex, six white rainbows struggled and danced, like immortal dragons.

Wu Xingyun and Li Qiushui's power was highly condensed.

Even though he was swallowed up by Wu Yazi's Northern Darkness Divine Art, his spiritual imprint was not erased and he was not assimilated.

However, Wu Yazi had no intention of absorbing their internal energy; he only intervened to stop them from fighting.

After the Northern Darkness Divine Art controlled the martial arts techniques of the two, it casually flicked its hand forward.

The two vortexes, carrying the power of the Tianshan Six Yang Palm and the White Rainbow Palm, transformed into two whirlwinds and rushed out of the cave.

It shot up to several dozen feet away before dissipating into a gust of wind.

When Wu Xingyun and Li Qiushui saw that Wu Yazi had stopped them from fighting, they glared at each other and eventually stopped fighting for the time being.

Wu Yazi glanced at Li Qiushui, then at Wu Xingyun, and said with a wry smile, "Senior Sister, Junior Sister, the three of us are all getting on in years. Why bother arguing about things from the past?"

Let bygones be bygones.

"Now, my senior sister's health has returned to normal, my junior sister's appearance is even more beautiful than before, and my body, which was on the verge of death, has been completely healed."

"It can be said that three happy events have occurred, bringing joy to everyone."

"While our Free and Unfettered Sect's martial arts can keep the three of us looking young, our actual lifespan won't increase by much."

"Why don't the three of us, like when we were children learning from our master, live peacefully together, love each other, accept our fate and find joy in it, and spend the rest of our lives carefree and at ease?"

"In that case, I have no regrets."

When Wu Xingyun and Li Qiushui heard Wu Yazi mention the time when they were children learning their skills under their master, a hint of nostalgia flashed across their faces.

Older people often like to reminisce about the past.

The Three Elders of Leisure were no exception.

All three recovered their health, and even the remaining grudges and rifts were largely mended.

Li Qiushui's eyes sparkled, and her voice was gentle as water as she spoke first: "I will listen to my senior brother, unlike my senior sister who is so domineering and always forces people to do things against their will."

Wu Xingyun snorted coldly, raised an eyebrow and cursed, "You're such a pretentious bitch; however, for the sake of my junior brother, I'll let it slide for now."

Listening to the heated exchange between the two, Wu Yazi couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly once again.

Knowing that her senior and junior sisters are only temporarily quiet now, and that there will likely be no shortage of disputes in the future.

I just hope he can calm them down and prevent them from turning against each other like before, facing life and death.

at this time.

A figure drifted into the cave; it was Xu Xingchen, who had heard the commotion.

Upon seeing Wuyazi amidst the shattered ice, his eyes lit up, and he cupped his hands in a smile, saying, "Congratulations, senior, on your full recovery."

Wu Yazi laughed and said, "I was able to recover thanks to Master Xu's help; Master Xu has given me a second chance, and I thank Master Xu in advance."

"Haha, you're too kind, senior; I've also gained a lot from sitting and discussing the Dao with you and Granny Tong."

Xu Xingchen replied with a smile, "Senior's injuries have just healed, so you should go back to bathe and change clothes. We can chat in detail later."

“What Master Xu said is very true.”

Wu Yazi responded with a smile, and the four of them left the cave together. He then bid farewell and went back to his room to bathe and change.

Wu Xingyun and Li Qiushui also returned to their respective rooms.

The two women had been guarding Wuyazi in the cave for many days, and they were exhausted, their clothes covered in dust. They needed to go back to bathe and change.

It was getting late.

The four of them reunited in Xu Xingchen's hall.

Xu Xingchen did not sit in the host's seat at the head of the table, but instead sat below with the three elders of Xiaoyao, facing each other.

On the table beside the four people, tea served by women from the Nine Heavens and Nine Departments of Lingjiu Palace was steaming hot and fragrant.

Xu Xingchen took a sip of tea and asked Wuyazi about his feelings during the healing process. He then compared his feelings with those of Duan Yanqing and gained some new insights.

Half an hour later.
Xu Xingchen stood up and bowed respectfully to the three elders of Xiaoyao: "Please, seniors, lend me a hand."

Wu Yazi stroked his black beard and said without hesitation, "Master Xu, how do you want the three of us to help you? Please tell me."

Wu Xingyun flicked his sleeve: "Young man, there's no need to be so polite with us; just say it, what do you need our help with? My junior brother and I will do our best."

"Even if you want to sit on the throne of the Song Dynasty, I will grant your wish."

Li Qiushui, who had also received favors from Xu Xingchen, smiled and said, "What Senior Sister said makes sense."

"I've long disliked that Song Dynasty emperor. If Master Xu is willing to become the Song Dynasty emperor, the four of us will storm the palace and kill that Zhao fellow."

"I believe the Song Dynasty court cannot stop our four-person joint attack."

"At that time, those who obey will prosper, and those who oppose will perish. We will thoroughly purge the Song Dynasty court."

"Then I will have my son sign a covenant of eternal friendship with you, and together we will attack the Great Liao Kingdom and divide the world equally. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Xingchen was somewhat speechless, then shook his head and said, "Grandma Tong, Senior Li, this junior has not yet taken the throne of the Great Song Dynasty seriously."

"What I seek is far more precious than the throne of the Great Song Dynasty."

Upon hearing this, Wu Yazi, Wu Xingyun, and Li Qiushui's eyes lit up, and they became genuinely interested.

"Master Xu, please explain in detail."
