These fairies want me to deal with them every day.

Wei Tu asked curiously, "This strange person's attitude is unexpectedly good."

Is it because of this sword? Or is it because of something else?

Xun Huai stared intently at Wei Tu.

"sword."

Wei Tu thought for a moment.

Then, he chose to take out this sword, a sword named Shen Tu.

Upon seeing the sword's design, Xun Huai was initially taken aback, then frowned and looked at Wei Tu.

"Is this what the sword in your heart looks like?"

Wei Tu nodded. "This must be fate."

Xun Huai sighed, looked at the sword intently for a few moments, and after confirming that it was indeed from the Dragon-Locking Well, he squinted and said.

"In that case, do you know what you're going to have to bear?"

Wei Tu looked at Xun Huai with a puzzled expression.

Xun Huai said, "The city lord of Linyuan City has always been a secret. They have lived in Linyuan City for generations, not for anything else, but for what is in this well. But many people don't even know what's in this well. Including me."

"Then how do we determine what we need to carry?"

Wei Tu asked curiously.

Xun Huai smiled. "Analysis, very simple analysis. For example, I know the real story of this well, and who this well is locking away."

"Who?"

Wei Tu was genuinely curious.

He knew this man wouldn't have come seeking him out of thin air; it must be for this sword. And the reason for his frankness, the reason for guarding the well, and the reason why the sword had chosen to come into his hands could only be…

Xun Huai looked at Wei Tu with a smile.

"There was once a man in this world who was so reckless that he turned his sword against the gods, and in the legends, he became a dragon."

With a loud bang.

Wei Tu felt a sudden roar in his heart.

...PS: What you've been waiting for is coming soon, but let me fill in some gaps first. It won't be much, and it'll be quick.

109 It's okay, there's still tonight.

The courtyard was very quiet.

No one approached anymore; in fact, it seemed as if the courtyard no longer existed in their eyes.

Mu Xitong looked over there in confusion. The two people were clearly moving their lips, but it seemed that no sound could be heard.

She understood, of course, that this was because the other party had used special methods to cut off contact, but what could possibly require such a drastic measure?

Of course, she wouldn't know what the two of them were talking about.

Wei Tu's eyes narrowed instantly as he stared at Xun Huai in front of him.

"You mean..."

He wasn't sure, because although he had thought things through and decided to face some things, wouldn't the other party's actions prove that countless clues and connections were pushing him in a certain direction?

This was very bad, extremely bad, and for a moment an uneasy feeling flashed through his mind.

I haven't felt this way in a long time, yet it came so abruptly.

Xun Huai shook his head.

"I'm just telling you a story, which may have nothing to do with your current situation... If I say too much, someone will hear it, so I'll stop here. You understand, it chose you, and that's enough."

"Is that so..."

Wei Tu nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.

Xun Huai raised his head and looked towards the horizon.

"When I first learned about this story, I was also puzzled and didn't understand it. Even after being the city lord for so many years, I still couldn't figure out what this story was trying to tell me. It was just a simple sentence... But now I understand, until I learned that you called this sword: Shen Tu."

"Is there a problem with Shen Tu?"

"Of course there are. Mortals, even so-called cultivators, even if they have truly attained the Great Dao, how can they easily be crowned with the title of god? Your audacity is too great, which makes me think of something. Perhaps even without this sword, you would still walk this path. But... there is a comfort, someone who walked this path before you. Perhaps... he just wanted to find you and get some comfort, or perhaps he also wanted you to show him what it would be like if the scene came true."

Wei Tu remained silent for a long time before looking at Xun Huai.

"that's it?"

"if not?"

Xun Huai looked at Wei Tu strangely.

Wei Tu thought for a moment, "To be honest, I thought you were going to say that whoever possesses this sword is its master..."

"what?"

"Or rather, whoever owns this sword is the master of Lin Yuan City..."

"You little rascal..."

"Even the ruler of Nan Jian Prefecture?"

"Aren't you being far too delusional! There's no such thing as a free lunch in this world. Everyone else is working hard to cultivate themselves, using the bitter fruits of this world to build the steps beneath their feet. You, on the other hand, aren't you satisfied with just walking like the wind? This is already a rare opportunity for many people, and you want to reach the sky in one step, don't you!"

Wei Tu sighed helplessly.

"Sigh, you really can't compare people. To be honest, when my senior found me, I thought I had really risen to the top in one step. Turns out, this is all there is to it?"

Xun Huai blew on his beard and said irritably, "That's enough! I'm leaving, so go do what you need to do... Honestly, young people these days are getting more and more impractical, they're the ones who are ruining things back then..."

Watching Xun Huai walk away from Wei Tu step by step with his hands behind his back.

Wei Tu laughed.

What I just said was a complete joke.

He never thought about achieving instant success, and even the appearance of this sword was just a premonition.

My path will not change. From the beginning until now, my unwavering belief is...

This time, whatever stands in his way, he will resolutely remove it.

He would make it even if he didn't have the sword.

And having this sword... would be even better.

"What were you talking about just now?"

Seeing Wei Tu walking back towards her, Mu Xitong asked.

Wei Tu shook his head.

"It's nothing, just a strange person saying some strange things."

"Is that so? It's obvious that this is just an excuse you're using to hide things from me."

Is it that obvious?

"Wei Tu, you're starting to stop hiding it now?"

"What do you mean by 'not hiding anything'?"

"You're disgusted with me, huh? That's how all men are, they just throw me away when they're tired of me..."

Mu Xitong turned around with a cold smile.

Wei Tu sighed and quickly went over.

"Sister Xitong, it's really nothing. Don't say that. What do you mean by throwing it away when you're tired of it... You haven't even played with it yet..."

"You haven't gotten tired of it, right? So you don't deny the instinct to throw it away when you get tired of it, right?"

No, that's not what I meant.

"That's exactly what you mean. Sigh, what can I do? I'm an old woman, unlike those young girls who are as fresh and vibrant as fresh fruit, bursting with juice with every bite..."

"Sister Xitong, your juices are quite good too..."

"what?"

"Ah...no, it's nothing. What I mean is, my respect and love for Sister Xitong will not disappear, don't worry!"

"Heh... Go tell the ghost. Don't come into my room tonight, you brat."

"This is just too much!"

"boom!"

Sunlight fell into the courtyard.

The light shone on the boy, who seemed incredibly lonely at that moment. Wei Tu raised his head and looked directly into the blinding light.

He sighed as he looked at the closed door in front of him.

"Sigh...what a pity."

It's such a pity to lose such a wonderful quilt as Mu Xitong's. It was a soft pillow to hold in your arms, and the feeling of sleeping with this woman in your arms was unparalleled.

But it's not an unbearable regret, after all...

He turned around and walked directly towards another room.

The door opened gently.

No light shone in, and the windows were tightly closed, but the air and dust floating inside were clearly visible.

Wei Tu could clearly see a figure rising on the bed at the far end of the room.

Gentle undulations, beautiful breaths.

Wei Tu walked over quietly.

He came to the bedside and then calmly sat cross-legged on the floor.
