I became an immortal on earth.

"I heard you've become the Sword Saint's disciple, which is quite unexpected. I thought he would only bestow the Sword Lord's Token upon you," Zhou Xue said, staring at Fang Wang with a slightly wistful tone.

This guy always manages to surprise her.

Fang Wang nodded and said, "Although we haven't known each other for long, his Heaven and Earth Sword Intent is indeed powerful, and he also passed on the Cold Feather Sword Qi. We should also call him Master."

Zhou Xue chuckled and said, "I am naturally aware of the power of the Heaven and Earth Sword Intent. Its reputation in the Southern Overseas Regions is extremely high, far greater than you can imagine."

Fang Wang asked in surprise, "He's so powerful, why do demons still dare to chase after him?"

"The reason why the Sword Saint is the Sword Saint is not only because he is powerful, but also because he does not kill. He has cultivated for six hundred years and has never killed a human or a demon. This is why I dare to let you come. Great cultivators like the Sword Saint are rare in the human world. I asked you to hide your identity because there are too many cultivators in Jian Tianze. I was afraid that it would cause trouble and affect your spirit shaping. After all, the Sword Saint does not have much time left and may pass away at any time."

Zhou Xue's words brought the image of the Sword Saint back into Fang Wang's mind.

This master has never killed anyone...

Fang Wang was more interested in the Sword Saint's past.

"By the way, have you ever met Gu Li's father, Gu Tianxiong?" Zhou Xue asked, changing the subject.

Fang Wang squinted and asked, "So, you've made acquaintances? Was this also part of your plan?"

Zhou Xue smiled and said, "Gu Tianxiong likes to make friends. If you come to Jian Tianze, you are likely to get to know him. However, he likes to stand up for the weak. The reason why the Gu family was destroyed was because they offended that great demon king and displeased him. In the end, the Gu family was destroyed. You have a good relationship with Gu Li, and the Gu family is actively trying to win you over. So save her, so as not to have any regrets in life."

When she spoke of regret, her eyes became weary, as if she were recalling some past events.

Fang Wang secretly rejoiced. Fortunately, Zhou Xue was one of his people. If she were an enemy, how terrifying would that be? Predicting the future is truly terrifying and impossible to guard against.

"Jian Tianze is good. Develop this place and turn it into the Fang family's second residence. By the way, if the Sword Saint's sword servants want to follow you, you can take them in. If you find it troublesome, you can let Han Yu take charge of them."

After saying this, Zhou Xue turned and walked along the lakeside.

Fang Wang quickly asked, "Where are you going?"

Without turning her head, Zhou Xue said, "Give Han Yu a few instructions, then continue south to find a treasure."

This time, Fang Wang didn't ask if he could be taken along. If Zhou Xue really wanted to take him, she would ask.

"Is she worried about me and came specifically to make sure I'm alright?"

Fang Wang watched Zhou Xue's retreating figure and thought to himself.

But the next second, he quickly dismissed the thought.

Too confident!

Isn't this just a life illusion?

Fang Wang turned around and walked towards the other side of the lake.

He planned to cultivate in Jian Tianze for a period of time, and also give guidance to Fang Hanyu and Song Jinyuan.

Song Jinyuan was an orphan since childhood. After the death of the Sword Saint, he did not know where to go. Fang Hanyu invited him to join the Fang family. After hesitating for a while, he agreed. He mainly wanted to follow Fang Wang. For the Fang family, it would naturally be a good thing to have a Xuanxin Realm expert.

Fang Wang returned to the bridgehead and continued his cultivation. Song Jinyuan and Xiao Zi sat on either side of him, gazing at the lake and comprehending swordsmanship.

Half an hour later, Fang Hanyu found Fang Wang and said that Zhou Xue had already left and that they would probably meet again at Taiyuan Gate.

Fang Wang simply nodded slightly, without saying anything more.

Upon seeing this, Fang Hanyu sighed inwardly.

The woman is in love, but the man is not!

In his view, Zhou Xue's visit was clearly made specifically to show concern for Fang Wang, and her feelings for him were obvious.

However, Fang Wang pretended to be stupid, and no one knew who he was hiding in his heart.

Fang Hanyu stared at Fang Wang's retreating figure for a while before leaving.

Although he inherited the sword energy of the Sword Saint, his swordsmanship is not strong enough. Recently, he has been sparring and exchanging ideas with other sword servants.

The sword servants followed the Sword Saint. Although the Sword Saint was dead, after witnessing Fang Wang's sword intent, they considered him the new Sword Saint and were willing to continue following him. Because of Fang Wang, they were also very enthusiastic towards Fang Hanyu.

Zhou Xue's arrival was just a minor incident.

Besides the sword attendants, there were nearly a hundred sword cultivators who did not leave, including Gu Tianxiong. They were all very interested in Fang Wang and wanted to see how he cultivated. Fang Wang did not treat them badly. Occasionally, he would gather everyone together and explain the sword intent of heaven and earth to them. As for how much they could comprehend, it all depended on their own destiny. His magnanimity made the sword cultivators admire him even more.

Eight months later, Fang Wang broke through to the third level of the Profound Heart Realm.

Now, Jian Tianze's sword servants are completely convinced of Fang Hanyu's abilities. Relying on the natal spirit bestowed upon him by the Sword Saint, he has an extremely high comprehension of swordsmanship. In half a year, he has learned several exquisite sword techniques. Now he can freely control the Sword Saint's sword energy, and sweeping away most Xuanxin Realm cultivators should not be a problem.

Under Fang Wang's guidance, Song Jinyuan gradually grasped the existence of the sword intent of heaven and earth. However, it was still difficult for him to fully comprehend the sword intent of heaven and earth, but at least he had hope and was no longer despondent.

He even had an absurd idea.

That is, Fang Wang's mastery of the sword intent of heaven and earth is higher than that of his master, the Sword Saint!

Having followed the Sword Saint for so many years, he hadn't even scratched the surface of the art, but after practicing with Fang Wang for half a year, he was able to sense something...

This day.

Fang Wang opened his eyes, looked at the lake, and stretched.

Xiao Zi leaped out from the bottom of the lake and said, "Young Master, more and more cultivators are coming to Jian Tian Ze lately. I feel like something bad is about to happen."

Upon hearing this, Fang Wang, who had originally planned to leave Jian Tianze, raised an eyebrow and said, "Is that so? Then go ask Han Yu."

Xiao Zi immediately burrowed into the bottom of the lake and disappeared.

Fang Wang was not afraid. After defeating the Great Demon King, his confidence soared, and he was confident even when facing a Condensation Realm cultivator.

Now that we're back, we'll have to face Lu Yuanjun and Zhao Zhen!

The title of Tianyuan Sword Saint was enough to make Taiyuan Sect take him seriously. He believed that between him and Lu Yuanjun, Taiyuan Sect would definitely choose him. Even if Guang Qiuxian and Yang Yuanzi were unwilling, there was nothing they could do.

It's just unknown how long it will take for the Great Qi Dynasty to transform into a dynasty of immortal cultivation.

Fang Wang had not been paying attention to this matter and was unaware of its progress.

An hour later, Xiao Zi finally returned, followed by Gu Tianxiong, whose face was full of anxiety.

Fang Wang stood at the bridgehead, gently fanning himself. Although he was puzzled, he was not in a hurry and waited for them to come to him.

"Something terrible has happened! Kong Xiyang, the Grand Elder of the Xuanhong Sword Sect, has declared that he will come to Jian Tianze to challenge the Sword Saint's Heaven and Earth Sword Intent!" Gu Tianxiong said in a deep voice.

Grand Elder?

Fang Wang raised an eyebrow and asked, "Is Kong Xi very strong?"

Gu Tianxiong took a deep breath and replied, "Although he is not the sect leader, he has obtained the name of the Sword Sect. In terms of swordsmanship, there are no more than three people in the Great Qi Kingdom who can rival him! As early as 130 years ago, Kong Xi stepped into the ninth level of the Profound Heart Realm. When he was young, he wanted to become a disciple of the Sword Saint, but was rejected. He probably held a grudge ever since. Hearing that you have obtained the Sword Saint's inheritance, he said that he would come to Jian Tianze to challenge you in a year. All swordsmen in the world are welcome to come and watch. Counting the time, it has been five months. In another seven months, he will be here."

"That old scoundrel is so vicious! He's boasting to the world that if you don't accept the challenge, everyone will laugh at you. But what kind of seniority does he have? He's bullying the young with his age! Shameless!"

Gu Tianxiong was furious. Unbeknownst to him, he had already come to regard Fang Wang as one of his own.

If I can't be your father-in-law, I can be your brother!

Xiao Zi didn't care and shouted, "What's there to be afraid of? No matter how strong Kong Xi is, can he be as powerful as a Great Demon King? My young master should compete with the top experts of the Great Qi."

Fang Wang never expected that after he killed the Great Demon King, someone would still dare to cause him trouble.

"In that case, let's do it."

Fang Wang said calmly, but a sense of anticipation lingered in his heart.

So far, he has never truly given it his all.

Moreover, the other party has already made a public statement. If he were to escape, how would the world view him, and how would the Taiyuan Sect view him?

Even knowing it was a calculated scheme, Fang Wang was still willing to accept it!

His confidence stemmed entirely from his cultivation and skills!

"But..." Gu Tianxiong frowned, wanting to persuade him but not knowing how, because he didn't know just how strong Fang Wang really was.

At this moment, Song Jinyuan descended from the sky and landed in front of Fang Wang. He said expressionlessly, "Didn't you want to be the number one in the world? Then you have to accept the challenge. My master has cultivated for six hundred years. The reason he is a sword saint is not because he has never been defeated, but because he will never shy away from any challenge he faces."

Fang Wang raised an eyebrow; Xiao Song was trying to provoke him.

"There are still seven months left, so let's wait."

Fang Wang shook his head, as if something else had suddenly come to mind.

Lu Yuanjun and Zhao Zhen wouldn't have run away, would they?

Although he did not return, the news of him obtaining the Sword Saint's inheritance and slaying the Great Demon King must have spread like wildfire throughout the cultivation world of Daqi. Otherwise, the Grand Elder of the Xuanhong Sword Sect would not have been able to sit still.

If Lu Yuanjun and his companion escape, then they were decisive enough; we can pursue and kill them later.

If not, then it can only be said that it was destined to end.

Fang Wang thought this to himself, then lifted the hem of his robe, sat down again, and continued his cultivation.

Seeing that he couldn't persuade him, Gu Tianxiong had no choice but to give up. He looked at Song Jinyuan, raised an eyebrow, and said, "Song Jinyuan, how about we find a place to practice?"

This kid is dishonest; he dared to provoke his son-in-law. He needs to be disciplined properly, otherwise he might cause trouble for his son-in-law in the future!

For his daughter's happiness, Gu Tianxiong felt it was necessary to take action.

"Let's go."

Song Jinyuan replied that he also needed a sparring match to build his confidence.

So the two of them set off on the waves, and Xiao Zi followed, wanting to join in the fun.

……

Inside a brightly lit hall, a young man in black walked in. He was none other than Xu Qiuming, the number one genius of the Xuanhong Sword Sect.

Xu Qiuming walked up to the steps and frowned as he looked at the figure sitting on the steps.

"Uncle-Master, isn't it inappropriate for someone of your status to challenge Fang Wang?"

Xu Qiuming's younger sister, Xu Tianjiao, had been saved by Fang Wang, so he owed Fang Wang a favor and had to come.

Sword Master Kong Xi was thin and wore a loose black robe. His long black and white hair was casually draped over his shoulders. A red sword pattern was imprinted on his forehead, making his already dignified face look even more imposing.

Kong Xi opened his eyes, looked down at Xu Qiuming in the hall, and said, "Having obtained the Sword Saint's inheritance and slain the Great Demon King, he is no longer just a genius, but a swordsman renowned throughout the world. What is wrong with me challenging him?"

"Don't blame me for speaking so bluntly. If I don't take action, Fang Wang will soar to great heights, and you will live in his shadow for the rest of your life. The Xuanhong Sword Sect will also be inferior to the Taiyuan Sect, enduring their oppression!"
