Douluo Continent: From Blue Silver Grass to Nine-Leaf Sword Grass

Chapter 67 Three Years

Two years later, Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling had already enrolled in the Tiandou Royal Academy.

At this moment, they were strolling around the street, while Dugu Yan was incessantly complaining about her grandfather.

"Lingling, do you think my grandpa is really stupid? He sent Jiang Li away for almost three years, and during that time, Jiang Li hasn't come home even once! Not even once! Doesn't he miss his master?"

Ye Lingling, who was standing to the side, looked at Dugu Yan's complaints and couldn't help but chuckle and ask in return.

"Yanyan, do you want Jiang Li to think about your grandfather or you?"

"Nonsense! Of course I'd want to think about myself... No! Lingling! Shut up, how could I possibly think about that kid? He's just a little brat."

Dugu Yan, who almost blurted out the truth, felt a little embarrassed and her face instantly flushed red.

Seeing this, Ye Lingling also showed a helpless expression.

Over the past two years, Dugu Yan has complained to him about this matter more than once.

Anyone with eyes can see that Dugu Yan misses Jiang Li.

But Dugu Yan was also stubborn, and Jiang Li did not take the initiative to say that she would come back.

During this time, she stubbornly refused to say that she wanted to see Jiang Li.

Although she didn't say it aloud, Dugu Yan had complained about this matter dozens of times in private.

Even when returning home, he had many disputes with Dugu Bo over this matter.

Dugu Bo also looked worried about this.

She could only harbor some resentment towards Jiang Li in her heart, but on the surface, she could only coax her granddaughter.

Suddenly, Dugu Yan abruptly changed her tone, looked at Ye Lingling, and asked a question that left Ye Lingling dumbfounded.

"Lingling, tell me, Jiang Li worked at your Ye Family Medical Clinic for so long, do you... have any feelings for him?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Lingling coughed abruptly, then couldn't help but roll her eyes at Dugu Yan.

Despite her outward attitude, Ye Lingling was genuinely reminded of that period of time.

It would be a lie to say I don't regret it.

But it was just a regret, and since he already knew that his best friend Dugu Yan had taken a liking to Jiang Li, he naturally never mentioned his thoughts about Jiang Li.

Even when Dugu Yan saw Ye Lingling's reaction, she wasn't too surprised.

After a playful smile, he quietly relayed a message to Ye Lingling in a somewhat serious tone.

"Lingling, if you like Jiang Li, I can help you get together. After all, you are my first and only friend who doesn't look down on me, and I don't want us to be separated in the future."

After hearing these words, Ye Lingling was somewhat tempted.

But in the end, she shook her head slightly, after all, she hadn't spent that much time with Jiang Li.

There might be some attraction, but it's not like I can't live without the other person right now.

Seeing Ye Lingling's reaction, Dugu Yan couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

However, she quickly hid her disappointment, and the two tacitly agreed not to discuss the matter further.

The back mountain of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Beneath the waterfall, two figures, one in white and one in black, were engaged in combat, each wielding a wooden sword.

Judging from the murderous aura emanating from them, they were using the same sword technique.

However, it is clear that the white figure is more skilled in swordsmanship during this battle.

However, the black-clad figure had its own insights into countering each move.

After the two exchanged dozens of blows.

The white figure beside him suddenly stopped, looking at the other party with a hint of fighting spirit and strange emotions, and couldn't help but speak.

"Let's decide the outcome with one move."

"Can."

After they finished speaking, the two of them suddenly began to gather their strength, preparing for this final blow.

A moment later, two figures, one white and one black, suddenly opened their eyes, and two completely different killing intents collided.

In an instant, the two wooden swords were drawn from their sheaths, and just moments later, they condensed into two sword energies that collided in mid-air.

After a while, the two sword energies remained evenly matched.

But the moment the black figure gained the upper hand with its sword energy, the white figure's sword energy suddenly erupted with a burst of power.

In the blink of an eye, the sword energy used by the black figure was instantly shattered.

After the competition ended, the black figure sheathed his wooden sword and slowly approached the white figure, unable to resist speaking.

"Uncle Chenxin is indeed worthy of being called Uncle Chenxin."

However, the person known as Chenxin showed no joy on his face after hearing these words.

He simply stared quietly at the black figure before him, ever since he had taught the other party the Seven Kill Sword Technique.

A year later, after his opponent had become familiar with the swordsmanship, he began to fight the black figure in front of him, even though he had reduced his soul power to the same level as his opponent.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

But he won almost every single time during this period, and with overwhelming victories.

But this time, however, he saw that the other side was about to gain the upper hand.

It means suddenly using power that is not of this level.

This made him slightly lost in thought.

It wasn't until the black figure in front of him called out several times that he finally came to his senses.

Then, looking at the black figure in front of him, he said seriously.

"Xiao Li, your Seven Kill Sword Technique has reached its peak. You have also incorporated some of your own understanding into this sword technique, which is truly remarkable. Nearly three years have passed. You should go down the mountain and visit your master."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Li on the other side couldn't help but be slightly lost in thought.

It turns out that he had been cultivating here for nearly three years.

In the first year, he focused on mastering the basics, while in the second year, Chen Xin helped him gradually master the Seven Kill Sword Technique.

In the third year, Chenxin did even more.

It wasn't a battle, but rather an attempt to use his killing intent to push Jiang Li to the brink of despair.

To make Jiang Li in front of him feel murderous intent and to control him.

After all, without this killing intent, the so-called Seven Kill Sword Technique is nothing but a showy facade.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Li couldn't help but reflect on the amount of soul power within his body.

At level 49, he was at his peak, just one step away from level 50.

He was only fifteen years old at the time, yet he had already reached this level.

To be honest, if someone had said these words to me a few years ago, I probably wouldn't have believed it myself, given that I have reached this level of cultivation at this age and have already mastered the basics of swordsmanship.

After a long silence, Jiang Li couldn't help but look up at Chen Xin and ask a question.

"Uncle-Master Chenxin, why do I always feel like I can't break through that barrier?"

Chen Xin naturally knew what Jiang Li was trapped in regarding the question he asked: it was the transformation of Qi into Intent.

This process is also one of the most important issues on the path of swordsmanship, as each different sword intent represents a different path that the swordsman must take.

The sword intent that Chen Xin mastered was naturally the Seven Kill Sword Intent. He was already thirty years old when he mastered this sword intent.

If someone had told him back then that someone could almost reach that level at fifteen, he certainly wouldn't have believed it.

But now that such a genius was right in front of him, Chen Xin remained silent for a moment before slowly speaking to Jiang Li and revealing his answer.

"The way of the sword is not just about burying yourself in hard work. Xiao Li, your strength is already quite good, but the only thing you lack to reach the level you want to reach, or to walk the path you want to take, is experience."
