Chapter 321 Reunion
Chapter 321 Reunion
Mu Xue Sect is the head of the eight major sects in the cultivation world.
There are rumors that the Qingyun Sect was once the leader of the eight major sects. However, five hundred years ago, after Xie Cang, the sect leader of the Yingxue Sect, visited the Qingyun Sect, the sect leader Yan Ze of the Qingyun Sect perished, and the Qingyun Sect disappeared. Only then was the Yingxue Sect able to become the leader of the eight major sects.
However, the Yingxue Sect was renamed the Muxue Sect during the five hundred years of changes.
"Wanxun, wait a minute, your hair isn't even tied up yet. Don't run!" Xie Cang sighed, holding the red hairband in his hand. As the strongest sword cultivator in the cultivation world, he now wore a defeated expression. Who told his daughter, Xie Wanxun, to be so disobedient?
I miss Ah Feng so much! I wonder when she'll be back?
Xie Cang counted on his fingers. A month ago, Feng Qi went to the Demon Realm to visit the Demon Emperor Qingqiu Ling, and hasn't returned yet.
He's really not suited to taking care of children, and Wanxun is just too naughty.
"Brother Xie, what happened? You look so worried." Lin Xuanjin appeared behind Xie Cang. He had just returned from his travels with his disciples, and he looked travel-worn.
Xie Cang said with a wry smile, "Wanxun ran out to play early this morning, and I couldn't stop her no matter what I did."
"It's alright, Wanxun is very clever, nothing will happen. Since it just so happens that you have nothing to do, why don't you teach my disciples the Cold Sword Technique?" After saying that, Lin Xuanjin flew away on his sword.
"Xuan Jin!" Xie Cang called out, but Lin Xuan Jin had already disappeared from his sight, undoubtedly heading to find the wine Xie Cang had hidden.
Xie Cang sighed and muttered, "He's hundreds of years old, how come he's still so troublesome?"
Meng Qingyue, Mu Zhi, Mu Ruo, and Qi Shaozhuo remained where they were.
"Greetings, Sect Leader," Meng Qingyue said respectfully, and his junior brothers and sisters behind him also greeted him.
Xie Cang had no choice but to wave his hand and lead them to practice swordsmanship.
Yunxiao Sect.
"Take this!" Xie Wanxun raised the Luoze sword and charged straight at Si Jinchuan.
Having just finished breakfast, Si Jinchuan had no choice but to draw his sword to block Xie Wanxun's attack. He asked, "Junior Sister Xie, you've come out again?"
"Hmph, the contest from yesterday is still undecided, I won't lose." Xie Wanxun's Luoze sword became even more sharp.
Si Jinchuan had no choice but to raise his sword and fight her for a few rounds.
The contest ended when the two were exhausted.
Xie Wanxun looked at the sword in Si Jinchuan's hand and asked curiously, "When did you change the sword? It wasn't this sword yesterday."
The sword in Si Jinchuan's hand was pitch black, except for a ruby carved on the hilt and the character "Xuan" written on the blade.
"It's a sword that Master gave me yesterday," Si Jinchuan answered truthfully.
Xie Wanxun looked at the Xuan Sword, then at Si Jinchuan's dark eyes, and smiled, "This sword suits you quite well."
An unnatural red stain appeared on Si Jinchuan's ears.
Suddenly, Xie Wanxun stood up, drew the Luo Ze sword, and said, "I've rested enough. Let's continue fighting."
Si Jinchuan's head drooped immediately. He really didn't want to fight Xie Wanxun every day!
He lowered his eyes, recalling the scene of his first meeting with Xie Wanxun.
He was ten years old at the time. He was the senior disciple of the Yunxiao Sect and had grown up there since childhood.
One day, his master took him to the mortal realm for training. They arrived in Thousand Sun City to stop the invasion of the demon race.
While he was fighting the demons, he inadvertently saw a young cultivator in a red robe with two small buns on her head fighting against them. She only had the cultivation of the early Foundation Establishment stage, yet she had joined the battle.
After Si Jinchuan killed the demon in front of him, he could not find the little cultivator anywhere.
The demons in the city had been brought under control by his master, but Si Jinchuan was still worried. He flew out of the city on his sword and found the young cultivator in the nearby bamboo forest mountain.
She was forced into a giant pit by the demon soldiers, who raised their swords to strike her.
Just as Si Jinchuan was about to make a move, he saw the little cultivator dodge like a kitten, and the demon soldier fell into the giant pit.
"You think you can capture me?" Xie Wanxun chuckled, then looked up and asked, "Fellow Daoist, if you've seen enough, hurry up and come down. I can't kill this demon."
Si Jinchuan came to his senses, jumped off his sword, and the sword flew towards the demon soldier.
"You are……"
"Senior Sister Xie Wanxun of the Twilight Snow Sect." Xie Wanxun looked at Si Jinchuan and asked, "You're from the Cloud Soaring Sect, right? Let me guess who you are? You're Senior Brother Si Jinchuan. Can you take me back to the Twilight Snow Sect? My sword is broken, and I can't fly back to the Twilight Snow Sect. If you take me back, I will definitely thank you properly."
Si Jinchuan nodded. He had indeed heard of Xie Wanxun, the daughter of the sect leader of the Muxue Sect, who was known for causing trouble. He never expected to encounter her today.
As the two stood on the sword, preparing to leave, the entire Bamboo Forest Mountain began to tremble.
Before the two could react, a powerful sword aura swept over them.
In an instant, a sword's cry shook the heavens, and a sword aura carrying boundless chill soared into the sky. This sword aura was a deep blue, like the aurora borealis on a cold night. Wherever it passed, water vapor instantly condensed into ice needles, which fluttered down. The temperature of the world plummeted, and all things seemed to be swept into an abyss of extreme cold. On the earth, spiderweb-like ice cracks rapidly spread from the center of the sword aura.
Si Jinchuan had never felt such powerful sword energy before. He raised his sword and shielded Xie Wanxun behind him.
However, Xie Wanxun lifted Si Jinchuan's hand and ran towards the direction of the sword energy, her eyes flashing with a light blue light, but without the slightest fear.
"Watch out, come back quickly!" Si Jinchuan rushed over, but was blasted away by the powerful sword energy.
When he stood up, he saw the chill dissipate and a figure standing straight in place.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Xie Wanxun standing in the distance, holding a sword.
Xie Wanxun held the Luoze Sword in his hand, and heard a familiar "Master" in his ear.
She nodded in agreement, her hand unconsciously touching the blade of the sword. The contract was complete, and a bright light flashed.
Si Jinchuan looked at Luo Zejian and exclaimed, "A ninth-grade sword?"
"No, it's a tenth-grade sword," Xie Wanxun replied earnestly, a hint of sadness in her eyes.
She felt a sharp pain in her heart, as if she had lost something very important. But she couldn't remember it.
She felt that person was behind her, but when she turned around, there was no one there.
……
Twilight Snow Sect.
The sky suddenly changed, and the once clear sky was instantly covered by rolling dark clouds. The dark clouds surged and churned, as if clearing the airspace for the approaching divine bird.
Immediately afterwards, a dazzling, seven-colored ray of light burst forth from the clouds, like a sharp blade slicing through the gloom. A phoenix, its enormous and magnificent wings outstretched, slowly emerged from the light. Its feathers shimmered with a golden-red hue, each one seemingly flowing with vibrant flame, its tail feathers trailing long, shimmering streaks of light, like a burning galaxy. With a flap of its wings, flames blazed fiercely, and it let out a clear, high-pitched cry. This sound pierced the heavens and earth, resounding throughout the land, causing mountains and rivers to tremble. All things seemed to hold their breath in that instant, welcoming the phoenix's return.
Feng Qingyi returned to the Muxue Sect, accompanied by the Nine-Tailed Demon Emperor Qingqiu Ling and her daughter Qingqiu Yu.
Qingqiu Ling was tall and slender, her skin as smooth as jade, radiating a soft glow that subtly shimmered in the sunlight. Her eyes were long and alluring, the pupils like deep amethyst, profound yet mysterious and majestic, seemingly able to see into the depths of one's heart. Her long, ink-black hair flowed freely, adorned with shimmering rubies that swayed gently with her movements, their light shimmering. Her nine tails were fluffy and magnificent, each covered in fine, silvery-white fur, like a flowing galaxy, gently swaying behind her.
She wore a floor-length crimson robe embroidered with intricate gold patterns. The robe billowed in the wind like a burning flame, making her appear both noble and alluring, so captivating that one dared not look directly at her yet could not look away.
"Madam, you're back," Xie Cang greeted her with a smile.
Feng Qingyi looked around but couldn't find Xie Wanxun. She looked at Xie Cang with some helplessness and asked, "Where did Xiaoxun go?"
Xie Cang's expression changed drastically, and he stammered for a long time without saying a word.
"You went to see that brat Si Jinchuan again, didn't you? I wonder which vixen that kid is reincarnated from, leading Xiao Xun to run to Yunxiao Sect every day." Feng Qingyi was so angry that she put her hands on her hips.
Qingqiu Ling, being a fox spirit, stiffened. She thought to herself: This is a bit impolite!
However, seeing Feng Qingyi's annoyed expression, she still advised, "Ah Feng, I'll have Yu'er go and look for it for you."
Upon hearing this, Qingqiu Yu became interested. She nodded and quickly flew towards the Cloud Soaring Sect.
"You haven't forgotten what happened tomorrow, have you?" Feng Qingyi asked with a smile, looking into Xie Cang's eyes.
Xie Cang quickly realized what was happening and nodded hurriedly: "Everything is ready."
"You're so easy to take care of, my husband." Feng Qingyi hugged Xie Cang tightly and kissed his cheek.
Qingqiu Ling, standing to the side: ...
