Capítulo 26: Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Jade Pool. You Won’t Cut Me, Will You?

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

"The fight just now was really interesting. I didn't expect to see such a shocking scene after I woke up from my nap."

Xie Daofeng's words verified Gu Xi's guess.

It seemed that his previous feeling was not wrong. Indeed, someone was spying on him in the dark. This person was Xie Daofeng.

However, Leng Yun did not notice it. He could not help but look surprised when he heard this. "Master, so you've been here for a long time."

Xie Daofeng glared at him. "You little brat, all you do is fight. Even when the Sect Leader's beloved disciple came to visit, you still refused to let him go. You even disturbed my nap. Let's see how I'll settle the score with you later!"

Leng Yun could not help but look embarrassed. He had no choice. He had challenged everyone on the Heavy Sword Peak, and there was not a single person on the other peaks who could defeat him.

Only then did he turn his attention to Gu Xi. He did not expect that this guy would surprise him so much.

"Martial Nephew, don't blame me. Although this beloved disciple of mine has an ice-cold expression all day long, he doesn't have any bad intentions. He's obsessed with the way of the sword and likes to challenge other people."

Gu Xi shook his head to show that he did not mind. He could also see that Leng Yun only wanted to find someone to compete with, and was not deliberately provoking him.

It was strange. Leng Yun's personality seemed to be solemn and calm. He was young and mature. On the other hand, Xie Daofeng seemed to be ordinary and amiable. There was no arrogance in his words. He did not act like the powerful Peak Master of the Heavy Sword Peak at all.

Xie Daofeng met Gu Xi's gaze and said with a smile, "What are you looking at, Martial Nephew? Is there something on my face?"

Gu Xi thought that his actions were obscure, as he only glanced at him lightly. He did not expect Xie Daofeng to be so sharp.

"I was just thinking that Elder Xie is different from what I imagined."

"Then what should I look like in your imagination?"

Gu Xi imagined him to be a sage with a sword in his hand. However, he did not say it out loud.

Gu Xi smiled and said, "It's the first time I've met you, Elder Xie. I feel like we've known each other for a long time. This might be fate. I should have come to the Heavy Sword Peak to visit you earlier."

Xie Daofeng's eyes flickered. He seemed to have thought of something. Suddenly, he burst into laughter and pulled Gu Xi over. "You're a good talker. It suits my taste. Plus, you have such an outstanding appearance and such a good sword in your hand--"

He paused and said regretfully, "It's just that Shen Tianyi accepted you as his disciple. If only I had met you earlier, I would have definitely accepted you as my Senior Disciple."

Gu Xi wondered what the real Senior Disciple, Leng Yun, was thinking when he heard this. However, Leng Yun was expressionless, and it was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry.

"Let's go. I'll bring you to visit our Heavy Sword Peak."

Good Heavens, in just a short while, the Peak Master had become so intimate with Gu Xi.

Leng Yun looked at the two receding figures. For some reason, he suddenly felt lonely. He seemed to have been forgotten.

Along the way, Xie Daofeng asked Gu Xi a few questions as if he was chatting with his family.

"By the way, where did you get this sword? I've seen many famous swords, but I've never seen one as special as yours. The power of lightning that it triggered just now doesn't seem ordinary."

It's finally here! Gu Xi knew that it would arouse Xie Daofeng's suspicion. After all, he had sharp eyes. No matter how kind he was, he was still the Peak Master of the Heavy Sword Peak. How could he be an ordinary person?

That was the power of Lightning Punishment that was comparable to the heavenly tribulation. If he cultivated it to the highest level, he could even summon the divine lightning of the Nine Heavens! How could ordinary lightning be compared to it?

Gu Xi's expression did not change as he said, "This is something I obtained from a secret realm while traveling outside."

Naturally, he could not tell the truth. Otherwise, it would scare people to death. This was originally just a rusty sword sitting on a forgotten corner in the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce. After the system purified and removed the impurities, it became like this.

If he told the truth, it would be impossible to explain it clearly. It might even expose the existence of the system. Of course, Gu Xi would not take such a risk.

Xie Daofeng curled his lips slightly but did not say anything. He seemed to believe his story, "It seems that not only are you talented, but your luck is also so good."

"It's just a fluke."

Heavy Sword Peak was very large. It was probably the most powerful place in the sect, so the place given to them was also a treasure land of feng shui. However, it still could not be compared to Gu Xi's Sanqing Peak, which had been modified by the system.

There were traces of sword practice everywhere on the rocks or the rock walls here. It was like a unique scenery.

"I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. The people of this peak practice the way of the sword all the time. They wish they could practice while eating and sleeping. Today is your first time here, so there's nothing that I can give you. The Heavy Sword Peak has no lack of sword-testing stones, and you can move them however you want."

Looking at the sword-testing stones that were half the height of a person, how could Gu Xi be dismissed by a few stones.

However, although the Heavy Sword Peak seemed to have a big business, in fact, sword cultivators were quite short of money. After all, good weapons and cultivation methods cost a lot of spirit stones.

Ordinary swords could not withstand their heavy usage and had to be changed every few days. Compared to alchemy cultivators, who could make money by refining pills, the people of the Heavy Sword Peak were not particularly rich.

"I heard that the Heavy Sword Peak has a ten-thousand-year-old Jade Pool. I heard that after practicing the sword, you can soak in it to wash away all your fatigue. Soaking in it all year round even has the effect of cleansing your muscles and marrow. I wonder if I can go and take a look."

Xie Daofeng looked at him deeply. Gu Xi actually felt as if this old man could see through his entire body. He was afraid that Xie Daofeng find out about his plan and cut him down with a hundred-meter-long sword.
