Chapter 430: Chapter 106: Giving You Some Advice!
Xuanyuan Sect Outer Sect Guest Hall.
Outer Sect Great Elder Qin Yun was absent, Elder Chen Xuan sat in the main seat.
To the left, in sequence, were the various Outer Sect Elders of Xuanyuan Sect, including the Fifth Elder and Ninth Elder, and behind them were the top ten Outer Sect disciples like Xu Bingyi, Qin Yan, and Lin Xiaoyun!
Due to Luo Cheng’s advancement to the Inner Sect, Xu Bingyi had now become the Chief Disciple of the Outer Sect.
In the first seat to the right was Bi Qiushui.
Next to him sat several young disciples from Luoxia Sect.
"Haha, Elder Qiushui, what brings you here? I’m sorry for not welcoming you sooner!"
Chen Xuan looked at Bi Qiushui, smiling, though his eyes were flickering.
Over the years, Xuanyuan Sect and Fierce Cloud Sect had contested each other, while Luoxia Sect remained neutral and rarely communicated with the other two. It could be said that they never visited without a reason.
The sudden visit of the other party this time remained unknown in intention.
Elder Qiushui smiled slightly, "Elder Chen, you have taken on a remarkable disciple."
Elder Chen Xuan was momentarily taken aback, "Are you referring to Luo Cheng?"
"That’s right. During the Three Sects Martial Arts Competition, his performance was truly impressive, and even Hua Jingyang, who awakened a Ten-star Spiritual Martial Soul, was no match for him."
"It’s only been a little over a month, and he has already advanced to the Early Stage of the Awakening Vein Realm Second Layer and easily defeated Liu Yifeng of Extreme Dao Sect, making a name for our Great Yue Dynasty. It’s truly something to celebrate!"
Elder Qiushui openly praised Luo Cheng without any reservation.
"Haha, that kid Luo Cheng is indeed impressive."
The Ninth Elder laughed heartily. Ever since Luo Cheng won first place in the Three Sects Martial Arts Competition, he had become increasingly satisfied with Luo Cheng.
The other elders also smiled.
Putting aside sect rivalries, hearing others praise disciples of one’s own sect is always a pleasant thing.
Chen Xuan Elder gently smiled, "Elder Qiushui, your visit here today shouldn’t be just to convey congratulations, right?"
"Our Three Great Sects have produced such a young hero as Luo Cheng, so naturally coming to congratulate is in order. But besides that, I do have a minor matter."
Bi Qiushui shifted the topic and gestured with his right hand to the exquisite young lady by his side:
"During the Three Sects Martial Arts Competition, my disciple Yan Qingshuang didn’t have the opportunity to face Luo Cheng, which is truly regrettable. She has also advanced to the Awakening Vein Realm now and would like to spar with Luo Cheng."
The exquisite young lady, dressed in white, had an exquisite figure, her delicate brows elegantly curved, her long black hair cascading like a waterfall tied behind her, her clear eyes containing a unique sharpness that dared not be directly gazed upon.
She was none other than Yan Qingshuang.
The Xuanyuan Sect crowd looked towards Yan Qingshuang with admiration in their eyes.
Having long heard of the outer sect chief disciple of Luoxia Sect who awakened a Nine-star Sword Martial Soul, and seeing her age was seemingly not yet sixteen, she had already broken through to the Awakening Vein Realm.
Among the top ten outer sect disciples of Xuanyuan Sect present, none could compare with her.
Besides Yan Qingshuang, the other disciples from Luoxia Sect who accompanied her were also outstanding.
Overall, they were a level above Xuanyuan Sect.
The Xuanyuan Sect elders sighed in their hearts.
Fortunately, Xuanyuan Sect had Luo Cheng!
Without him, they would have been completely outmatched.
Yan Qingshuang stood up and greeted with a graceful bow, "I humbly ask the elders to accept my impudent request."
Recently, though Yan Qingshuang had advanced to the Awakening Vein Realm, her Sword Intent had reached a bottleneck, preventing her from progressing further.
Bi Qiushui had no solution for this.
Sword Intent requires personal enlightenment, it cannot be taught.
Even if Sword Kings or Sword Saints were your mentors, it wouldn’t help.
Bi Qiushui initially wanted Yan Qingshuang to spar with swordsmen of her age to refine her Sword Intent’s sharpness, unlock her potential, and break through her bottleneck.
Unfortunately, Shadowless Sword Fei Jue of Fierce Cloud Sect was killed by Luo Cheng.
Luo Cheng’s whereabouts were unknown!
Within the Three Sects, there wasn’t a single young swordsman who could be a match for Yan Qingshuang.
As for the older disciples, their realms were either too high or their Sword Intents too strong, failing to refine her Sword Intent effectively.
If not careful, it could even shatter Yan Qingshuang’s Sword Heart, outweighing the benefits.
Upon learning of Luo Cheng’s presence at the Imperial City’s banquet, Bi Qiushui immediately decided to bring Yan Qingshuang to Xuanyuan Sect for a duel with Luo Cheng!
Chen Xuan Elder vaguely guessed Yan Qingshuang’s intention.
Competing among disciples of the same generation encourages mutual growth, which is also beneficial for Luo Cheng.
He said:
"Luo Cheng has already been promoted to the Inner Sect, so this matter requires his personal consent."
Yan Qingshuang nodded, "Of course."
Chen Xuan Elder said, "Someone go and invite Luo Cheng here!"
"Yes!"
An Outer Disciple Steward hurriedly departed.
Luo Cheng arrived at the Inner Sect Hall and smoothly received the Inner Sect Disciple Token and the Inner Sect Disciple’s unique blue robe with golden trim.
His reputation was now substantial, and many Inner Sect Disciples and Elders recognized him at a glance.
The disciples of the Crown Prince Hall wore cold expressions, each eyeing him like sharp knives.
However, Luo Cheng’s status was now different, already an Inner Sect Disciple, combined with the authority of the two Supreme Elders and Yun Mengli, no one dared to act rashly.
Luo Cheng paid no mind, focusing on his tasks.
He intended to collect the First Place prize from the Three Sects Martial Arts Competition at once.
However, he was informed that the prize for the Three Sects Martial Arts Competition must be claimed at the Outer Sect Hall.
He then prepared to head to the Outer Sect Hall.
On the way, Luo Cheng ran into the hurried Outer Disciple Steward.
"Yan Qingshuang wants a duel with me?"
Luo Cheng, hearing the Outer Disciple Steward’s words, was a bit surprised.
This Outer Disciple Steward, about thirty years old, had a cultivation at the Third Layer of the Tongxuan Realm.
In the Outer Sect, he was considered somewhat influential.
But in front of Luo Cheng, already a formidable Awakened Vein Realm Inner Sect Disciple, he showed utmost respect and spoke humbly, saying:
"Indeed! Elder Chen said that she might be looking to hone her Sword Intent through sparring."
"Haha, she certainly came at the right time! Let’s go!"
A glint of sharpness flickered in Luo Cheng’s eyes.
Yan Qingshuang had once generously shared insights on Sword Intent.
He naturally wouldn’t refuse her challenge.
The two proceeded to the Outer Sect Guest Hall, one ahead and one behind.
"That flair just now! Could it be... Sword Intent!"
The Outer Disciple Steward, walking behind Luo Cheng, was internally shocked.
Having served in Xuanyuan Sect for many years, he was not short-sighted.
The flair just now pierced into one’s heart and soul, sending shivers down his spine!
Undoubtedly, it was the Sword Intent that countless dream of, a supremely powerful force capable of harming with the intangible!
Unconsciously, the Outer Disciple Steward’s demeanor became even more humble, his body slightly bowed.
This was not due to a disparity in status but a natural respect for strength!
Strength always commands respect, and a swordsman who has grasped Sword Intent is a force to be reckoned with!
In the Outer Sect Guest Hall.
Luo Cheng entered the hall, slightly cupping his fists:
"Greetings, Master, and Elders!"
Now an Inner Sect Disciple, his status was equivalent to that of an Outer Sect Elder, and if not for his Master, Chen Xuan, he need not have saluted anyone else.
The hall fell silent immediately, with everyone’s gaze sharply focused on Luo Cheng.
Numerous Outer Sect Elders of Xuanyuan Sect radiated deep disbelief in their eyes.
Many of them had witnessed Luo Cheng’s entry into the Sect.
Almost driven out as a worthless potential, and in less than a year, he was already their equal!
Bi Qiushui’s eyes glittered.
Regarding the news of Luo Cheng breaking through to the Awakening Vein Realm Second Layer, she had some skepticism before, but now it was confirmed!
In just over a month, advancing from the Tongxuan Realm to the Early Stage of Awakening Vein Realm Second Layer, and awakening a Wasted Martial Soul!
Involuntarily, Bi Qiushui thought of Lingyun Pavilion.
And also of Linjiang City’s Lingyun Pavilion Master Luo Yao.
She had someone investigate Luo Yao’s identity.
If indeed Luo Cheng had been chosen by Luo Yao, with the resources of Lingyun Pavilion, Luo Cheng achieving this wasn’t impossible.
Only, she wondered what Luo Yao saw in Luo Cheng.
Even if immense now, with an awakened Wasted Martial Soul, he’d ultimately become a rootless duckweed, blending into mediocrity. Any more resources might eventually go to waste!
Chen Xuan looked at Luo Cheng with relief and said joyfully:
"Luo Cheng, this is Elder Bi Qiushui from Luoxia Sect. Do you know why they’ve come?"
"Yes."
Luo Cheng nodded, his gaze directly shifting to Yan Qingshuang, as he asked, "Yan Qingshuang, at what stage is your Sword Intent?"
Yan Qingshuang honestly replied, "About half accomplished!"
Upon hearing this, the Xuanyuan Sect Elders couldn’t help but gasp.
The difference between the perfection of Human Sword Integration and comprehending half of a Sword Intent seemed minimal, yet it was vastly different!
The former merely holds the potential to comprehend Sword Intent, while the latter has begun to comprehend it.
The significance between the two is entirely different.
For Yan Qingshuang’s realm and age, being able to comprehend half a Sword Intent is already extremely rare and exceptional.
She would definitely grasp true Sword Intent in the future!
Luo Cheng calmly nodded with a smile, "Then your timing is excellent. Had you come days earlier, I wouldn’t have much to discuss with you. But now, I can offer you some guidance from my experience."
