Chapter 066 Step Over

The flying sword flew quickly in the sky, and Lu Xun was studying the small sword energy that entered the scabbard.

The basic information displayed is: [Yan Li’s sword energy (1%)].

There is half of the sword energy hidden in the mountain, which is 50%. The small path in Lu Xun's scabbard is only one percent of the complete version.

Although it was only one percent, Lu Xun could feel its power.

But compared to other sword energies in the scabbard, it is not so easy to control.

“Although you are born with sword energy, I at least hold the scabbard, and I am half your stepfather. Why don’t you listen to me?” Lu Xun said in his heart.

But having an extra sword energy to defend oneself is a good thing after all. He was also a little curious, how powerful could a sword that could exert 1% of the power of the eldest brother cause?

Ji Li came down the mountain three days earlier than the other two. Although she couldn't fly yet, this strong girl had great physical strength and endless energy, comparable to a perpetual motion machine.

Moreover, after she arrived at the nearest small town, she could spend some money to get a horse, or even a carriage. Lu Xun remembered that she still had a lot of money on her, and this little money-grubber would definitely carry it with her.

It would be better to go directly to Yong'an County. After all, she would definitely go back to Yong'an County. It was her hometown and where she grew up.

Yong'an County is neither close nor far from the Demon Sect's mountain gate . It takes almost a day and a night for the flying sword to get there, including the rest time.

After all, Murong Yan's flying sword does not fly fast. It is quite laborious. It is called Hongmao, but it carries Mount Tai on its back.

In addition, Lu Xun, the swordless man, is a bit difficult to deal with. Even if he doesn't touch the sword with his hands, but just steps on the Hongmao Sword, he can still suppress it to a certain extent. Can you believe it?

Although it didn't cause the flying sword to fly backwards with a "bang", it still affected its performance and made it fly slower.

I am just a top-grade magic sword, a poor Huangwu, why do I have to live such a hard life?

The top-grade Huang Wu online is so humble that I feel pity for him.

But then again, if Ji Li went straight to Yong'an County after coming down the mountain, she might have arrived at about the same time...if she didn't get lost immediately after coming down the mountain.

On the way, Murong Yan said to Lu Xun, "Little Uncle Master, are you worried about Junior Sister Ji Li going down the mountain to seek revenge?"

Lu Xun nodded and said, "Do you think she is a person who can make people worry-free?"

Murong Yan showed a silly smile on her face, nodded and said: "Junior Sister Ji Li is sometimes a little cute."

"It's silly and cute, right?" Lu Xun couldn't help but laugh as well. He didn't mean to criticize Ji Li, but sometimes he also thought that this was indeed cute.

After all, this world where looks matter is cruel. Even when good-looking people do stupid things, there is a nice adjective to describe them, which is "stupid and cute".

Murong Yan controlled the flying sword while saying, "That disciple is so bold as to want to make a bet with Junior Uncle-Master."

"Oh? Tell me, what are you betting on?" Lu Xun said.

"I bet Junior Sister Ji Li doesn't need any help from Junior Uncle-Master to successfully avenge her parents." Murong Yan's fat face looked very serious.

"You quite believe in her!" Lu Xun said to her.

Although Ji Li has already reached the fourth level of the Qi-Eating Art, he is considered an absolute master in the martial arts world.

Unless she meets a monstrous boss who practices martial arts, she can definitely walk around the world with her head held high.

Her enemy shouldn't be that powerful, otherwise there would be no reason for him to be interested in a book of the lowest level of evil skills.

And since she dared to go down the mountain, she must have some confidence in her heart...but Lu Xun was still worried.

What if the other party has more people and more power? What if something unexpected happens? Like killing the small one and then the big one comes? Isn't this a normal process?

Of course, it might also be because Ji Li is younger than his sister Lu Yu.

His friends all say that he is in the late stage of sister complex. In fact, they don’t know that after his parents passed away, the eldest brother is like a father in this family.

Although Lu Xun is the older brother, he sometimes plays the role of both father and mother. He is sometimes asked to attend parent-teacher meetings, and Lu Yu is his biggest concern.

Even though he has been in this world for so long, he still thinks of his sister from time to time.

Although she is already an adult, Lu Xun is still worried.

Perhaps it was because he had maintained this mentality for too long, he became even more worried about Ji Li, who was even younger than Lu Yu.

"Let's bet!" Lu Xun said directly.

He doesn't really care about winning or losing; what he really cares about is his mentality.

"What do you want to bet on?" Lu Xun asked with a smile.

Murong Yan was just in a momentary mood, so she said, "How about betting 1,000 spirit stones?"

Lu Xun was happy when he heard this.

I almost forgot that the Demon Sect has its own rules. If you want to start a gambling game, you have to pay 500 spirit stones.

That means whoever loses will be responsible for paying two people's share of spirit stones.

Lu Xun has a special status and can receive 3,000 spirit stones every month. Spirit stones are equivalent to the universal currency in the cultivation world, and his storage ring holds exactly 3,000 spirit stones.

"Okay!" Lu Xun agreed immediately.

When the two arrived in Yong'an County, Ji Li seemed not to have arrived yet.

Because they found out where the original Ji Mansion was through asking around. After all, the Ji family was a martial arts family and was very famous in the local area.

In that vicinity, Murong Yan did not sense the breath left by Ji Li.

Don't forget that when Murong Yan first met Ji Li and Lu Xun, she was kind enough to cast a layer of illusion on the Wedding Dress Sword. This illusion is still there, and she can use it to sense whether Ji Li has been here.

“Isn’t it possible that I’m really lost?” Lu Xun thought to himself.

Since Ji Li hasn't arrived yet and there are less than four days left before the players arrive, we can just stay nearby and wait.

This wait lasted for three full days.

Three days later, Ji Li finally arrived in Yong'an County. Murong Yan sensed the illusion she had set up, which meant that Ji Li had appeared nearby.

Lu Xun went to the street with her immediately, but he did not go to look for her. Instead, he waited at the door of Ji's mansion.

Ji Li came here quickly. She was wearing the veil she wore when Lu Xun first saw her. She held the wedding sword in her left hand and a tightly wrapped black bundle in her right hand. Her body was covered in smoke and dust, and her eyes revealed fatigue.

She was now in almost the same state of disgrace as when she first met Lu Xun.

But Lu Xun could guess what was in the package: a human head.

This stupid girl didn't go home first after coming down the mountain, but went to seek revenge first.

It was obvious that she had successfully taken revenge, killed all those who should be killed, and brought back the head of the culprit.

When she saw Lu Xun and Murong Yan at the door of her house, she was surprised at first, and then for some reason, she felt like crying.

But she didn't cry in the end.

Obviously, Lu Xun lost the bet, but he felt much better.

He looked at Ji Li and recalled a conversation he had seen on the Internet:

"Did you become an adult on the night you cried the most?"

"No, it was the night I tried not to cry."

This conversation may seem a bit hypocritical, but it does make some sense.

When did he grow up? Perhaps when he dried his tears and became the sole breadwinner of the family.
