Sword Aura to the Heavens
Chapter 49 Old Blind Man

Chapter 49: Chapter 49 Old Blind Man

After Thousand Silk Weave and Qingfeng Technique, he chose to cultivate another Thunder Attribute spell.

The Thunder Technique Sky Thunder Technique, this spell draws upon thunder for attacks. Li Fan chose this spell because he valued the restraining power of the Heavenly Thunder Technique.

After that, Li Fan did not continue selecting spells.

His current strength is strongest in sword attacks, followed by martial arts with Martial Spirit. The two spells he chose, Thousand Silk Weave focuses on control, Qingfeng Technique focuses on movement technique, and the Heavenly Thunder Technique on restraint.

Li Fan believed there was no need to continue practicing other offensive spells. Without an Innate Dharma Form, the power of offensive spells could not surpass that of the sword. For him, practicing spells was merely to enhance his immediate combat power, serving as a support.

The little senior brother said a single sword breaks ten thousand techniques; practicing the sword alone is sufficient, but having some auxiliary methods makes it easier to manage during combat.

Senior Sister let him come to the library, also to prepare for the Li Mountain sword trials, to gain the opportunity to go to Sword Valley.

"Alright." Li Fan said to Xiao Qi.

"So soon, aren’t you going to take another look?" the girl asked.

"No need, Senior Sister is still waiting for me outside," Li Fan replied.

"Then I’ll accompany you out," the girl said, then followed Li Fan to leave the library together.

Walking out of the library, Li Fan immediately saw Ye Qinghuang standing quietly there like a picturesque view. In the distance, many people were secretly glancing in Ye Qinghuang’s direction.

"Senior Sister." Li Fan called out, walking towards Ye Qinghuang.

When Ye Qinghuang saw Li Fan coming out, her eyes revealed a brilliant smile, and she said, "Why so fast?"

Seeing the smile on Ye Qinghuang’s face, the disciples in the distance stood there dumbfounded, staring at her in a daze.

Perhaps only for that boy would she be like this?

Their looks toward Li Fan became increasingly envious.

Beside Li Fan, a figure was walking towards the library, casting a glance at Li Fan.

"Lu Yuan," Xiao Qi whispered upon seeing the girl. Many Li Mountain disciples around also glanced towards Lu Yuan.

Li Fan also curiously glanced at the girl, who was about the same age as him and surprisingly beautiful. Though he looked at his Senior Sister every day, ordinary beauty couldn’t attract his attention. But seeing Lu Yuan, he still felt stunned by her beauty, which showed her extraordinary looks.

Of course, she was still not as lovely as Senior Sister.

If comparing, the girl before him was like an earthly beauty.

While Senior Sister had already transcended the mundane world.

Even so, it brought silence around them. Li Mountain’s two matchless beauties appeared here together.

Li Fan and Lu Yuan merely exchanged a glance and brushed past each other. Lu Yuan entered the library, while Li Fan headed towards Ye Qinghuang.

"Senior Sister."

"Ye Xianzi," Xiao Qi called out. Every time she saw Ye Xianzi, she still felt amazed. Even a girl like Lu Yuan seemed somewhat overshadowed beside her.

She still remembered the scene when she first met Ye Xianzi, which was also when she first met Brother Xiao Fan.

That day, it was snowing heavily. Someone knocked on the door, and she opened it.

As a child, she thought she saw a fairy.

Ye Qinghuang smiled and nodded at Xiao Qi. Xiao Qi knew this was Ye Qinghuang’s greatest respect for anyone other than Brother Xiao Fan.

"Let’s go," Ye Qinghuang said to Li Fan, then took his hand and flew away.

The girl watched the departing figures of Ye Qinghuang and Li Fan, a faint sense of loss in her eyes.

"Is this Ye Xianzi’s first time bringing him to the library?" someone asked.

"It should be. I didn’t expect someone about to die to be brought back to life by Ye Xianzi, and now he’s embarked on the path of cultivation."

"He’s really lucky," many said enviously.

Why didn’t they have such luck?

To say nothing of holding hands, no one even dared to approach Ye Qinghuang closely.

Amid the ancient peaks of Li Mountain, high above the clouds, Ye Qinghuang pulled Li Fan and asked, "Does she look attractive?"

"Ah?" Li Fan was taken aback, looking at his Senior Sister.

"Weren’t you just staring at her in a daze?" Ye Qinghuang softly laughed.

Li Fan suddenly realized and felt embarrassed, as his Senior Sister was referring to Lu Yuan.

"Lu Yuan is the most outstanding disciple of the younger generation at Li Mountain. She’s both a Sword Cultivator and possesses a powerful Innate Dharma Form. Both her talent and looks are superb. Moreover, it’s said her family background is remarkable, and she came to Li Mountain to practice because of a family incident," Ye Qinghuang stated.

"Why is Senior Sister saying this?" Li Fan asked.

"If little junior brother likes her..." Ye Qinghuang smiled.

"Not as good-looking as Senior Sister," Li Fan’s gaze drifted forward.

"Silly boy," Ye Qinghuang murmured softly.

The two returned to Divine Brilliance Peak.

At the edge of the cliff, Liu Ji stood there. Not far from her, an old man sat on a stone.

Upon seeing Li Fan return, Liu Ji glanced at Ye Qinghuang and Li Fan, then looked at the old man.

Li Fan stepped forward, jumped onto the large stone, sat next to the old man, and said, "Old Blind Man, where did you go?"

"Where could a blind old man go?" the old man replied.

"I met an old Daoist at the foot of the mountain who said he knows you," Li Fan suspiciously looked at the old man. He said he didn’t go anywhere, so where did the old Daoist come from?

"He does know me; we had some relations when we were young," the Old Blind Man responded.

"I feel like you’re hiding a lot from me?" Li Fan always felt there was something odd.

"I’m not hiding anything. Once you go to Sword Valley, you’ll know everything," the old man said.

"Sword Valley again."

Senior Sister also wanted him to go to Sword Valley, and now with acquiring Yu Qing’s Demon Core in going downhill, it was as if they planned all this, pushing him forward.

"So how good is my talent?" Li Fan asked curiously.

"What do you think?" the Old Blind Man asked.

"How would I know?"

"You’ll know once you reach Sword Valley," the Old Blind Man said.

"Cough cough..." The Old Blind Man coughed a few times.

Li Fan supported himself on the large stone, walked to the old man’s back, and massaged his back, saying, "You have so many ailments. It’s unknown how many more years you can live. Stop wandering around. My body is already fine. Can’t you stay on the mountain and take care of yourself?"

"What, hoping for me to die?" The Old Blind Man asked.

"I’m afraid you’ll leave too soon. Then raising me would be in vain; I wouldn’t even have a chance to take care of you in old age," Li Fan said. Although the Old Blind Man hadn’t been with him as long as Senior Sister, he never forgot the Old Blind Man’s upbringing kindness.

He remembered several times when he almost died, the Old Blind Man would travel far away, each time returning with food, sometimes meat, sometimes a Demon Core, sometimes fruit.

But each time he returned, the Old Blind Man seemed older.

"I raised you not to have you take care of me in old age," the Old Blind Man’s wrinkled face showed a benevolent smile. "And besides, I won’t die so soon. I still want to see you grow up."

Li Fan pouted and asked, "How grown up is considered grown up?"

He was almost seventeen.

"Grown enough to protect your Senior Sister," the Old Blind Man chuckled.

Li Fan turned to look at his Senior Sister behind him.

Ever since he was young, it was always Senior Sister protecting him. Of course, he also wanted to protect his Senior Sister.

But did he have that ability?

Senior Sister was too dazzling.

Listening to the conversation between the two, Liu Ji felt that their mentor-student relationship was somewhat unusual.

It seemed, very casual.

Yet within that casualness, she felt a warmth.

Before coming to Li Mountain, she thought Li Fan might be a chosen prodigy of Li Mountain, but now it seemed he wasn’t even at the heart of Li Mountain, merely in this remote Divine Brilliance Peak, far from Li Mountain’s center.

"Cough..." The old man coughed again and said, "Stop hitting. This old body of mine is as it is. Go practice. In a few days, you’re off to Sword Peak for the sword trials. Don’t embarrass this old man too much then."

"Since you know, why let me go?" Li Fan asked.

"If you don’t try, how will you know your own level?" The Old Blind Man laughed. "Besides, you need to go to Sword Valley."

"What treasures lie in Sword Valley that you’ve mentioned so many times?" Li Fan asked.

"I’m getting senile," the Old Blind Man chuckled. "Go practice."

"Hmm." Li Fan nodded, then jumped off the large stone, heading towards the cliff.

Though the Old Blind Man was blind, it seemed he could sense it, facing Li Fan’s direction with a wrinkled face full of expectation.

Sword Valley hides the future!

Li Fan, must go.

Ye Qinghuang walked to the old man’s side, looked at him, and said, "Xiao Fan is right. Your body can’t endure much more agitation. From now on, don’t travel far."

"Alright, alright, I know," the Old Blind Man smiled bitterly, shaking his head. "You disciples are all controlling your master."

"We all wish for Master to live many more years," Ye Qinghuang said. "How can you not witness Xiao Fan’s future with your own eyes?"

"Indeed, how can I not see it with my own eyes?" The Old Blind Man said. "If I can’t see it, I’d probably die with regrets."

At the cliff’s edge, Li Fan began cultivating, golden mana radiated from his body, shining brightly in the sunlight on the young man.
