Chapter 373: The Sword Qi Approaches
The shadow was killed, making this place completely safe.
The surrounding barriers and restrictions were all destroyed by [Sword Qi is Near], resulting in free movement here, and anyone can come in and out at will.
Cai Jiangjiang and others who were still obsessed with finding a exit received a mission prompt - mission failed.
This made them feel annoyed and frustrated, and they hurried towards Lu Xun on the altar.
After arriving at the altar, they immediately saw the peerless sword floating next to Lu Xun - [Sword Qi is Near]!
So what are you waiting for?
Video recording!
Lu Xun glanced at them, waved his hand and said, "Everyone leave here and wait outside."
Although Cai Jiangjiang and others were somewhat reluctant, they at least recorded videos related to [Sword Qi is Near]. This can be posted on the forum to show off, which can be considered an unexpected surprise.
So, they all left the altar area obediently.
I will do whatever Zi Dian tells me to do.jpg.
After the sword-serving boys left this place, Lu Xun turned his head and looked towards the south bank of the river beside him.
When Jiang Nan'an saw Senior Lu looking at him, he straightened his back for some reason.
He now had nothing but admiration for Lu Xun. After watching him summon [Sword Qi Near] and easily destroy the strange flames and the mysterious man, he was completely convinced.
Everything that had just happened was so outrageously powerful, far beyond his imagination.
——I am far inferior to Senior Lu.
Lu Xun had a good impression of this son of destiny, so he said calmly: "Nan'an, you should leave this place first. Remember to call away the disciples of Qingtian Sect who are scattered outside the altar and tell them not to get close to here."
"Okay." Jiang Nan'an nodded in agreement without asking any more questions.
Although he didn't know what Senior Lu was going to do next, he thought there must be a hidden meaning behind it, so he just did as he was told.
Well, another person with a slippery mindset...
After following Lu Xun's instructions, people on the south bank of the river began to pick up magic weapons.
Many of the magic weapons he had thrown away before did not arouse the interest of the Soul-Devouring Fire, and are now lying on the ground.
His movements when he threw the magic weapon were indeed heroic, but now the way he squatted on the ground to pick it up did look a little awkward.
While picking up the items, he saw the ruby ring turned into fine powder.
This made him think of the phantom just now and the look in Senior Lu's eyes when he looked at the phantom.
In his opinion, it was a bit abnormal that Senior Lu, who was always calm and composed and never showed his emotions, took the initiative to step on the ring fragments.
Although his movements looked very handsome when he stepped on it, I wonder if there is some hidden secret behind it?
After Jiang Nan'an put all the magic weapons into the storage ring, he said, "Senior Lu, the phantom just now..."
Seeing that he was hesitant to speak, Lu Xun said, "He is an alien, and he has a very high status."
After saying that, he did not forget to pass on the blame, "I heard about this person from Yin Tian, who attacked me."
Yin Tian was "whipped" again...
Jiang Nan'an nodded and asked curiously, "Then...does Senior Lu have any old grudges against him?"
He just saw a lot of emotions in Lu Xun's eyes.
Lu Xun nodded and did not deny it.
He spoke calmly, "Actually, what he did to me is a small matter. The most important thing is that he shouldn't hurt the people I want to protect."
"Who is it?" Jiang Nan'an immediately became interested.
There was a gossipy look on his face, with his signature evil and crazy smile, just like a Husky with a longing look.
Lu Xun did not answer this question directly, but said:
"I have heard a saying that a young man's shoulders should bear the responsibilities of growing grass, flying orioles, clear wind and bright moon."
When Jiang Nan'an heard this, he felt that this sentence was truly wonderfully written.
But...what does this have to do with the person I want to protect?
Lu Xun looked at him with a confused expression and smiled:
"I don't have any of that on my shoulders. Most of the time, it's just a little black cat."
…
…
Everyone left the altar area. Now, only Lu Xun, the scabbard that was being restored, and the [Sword Qi] floating in the air were left on the altar.
No matter how you look at it, it is full of hostility towards Lu Xun.
Mixed with the hostility is jealousy, anger, resentment and... envy?
Lu Xun could understand this.
He once thought he was a pure person and he thought he had done nothing wrong, until he found out that he was actually a sword... then he felt a little guilty.
"If I hadn't used the [Purple Level Equipment Repair Voucher] to repair the scabbard, [Sword Qi Near] would probably be even more displeased with me," he said in his heart.
Of course, he didn't have much of a good impression of this sword that was so proud and arrogant to the extreme.
Fortunately, it cannot transform, otherwise, with its arrogant look, it would probably glare at people with its nose.
Besides, I didn’t do anything to your scabbard.
Since it followed me, it has been eating delicious food and drinking spicy drinks, and has been reaping the benefits all the time, okay?
With sword energy to swallow and beads to stuff in, he has reached the pinnacle of his sheath life!
Look at you again, you only care about strengthening yourself, only think about getting stronger, now it's okay, right? You have become a peerless sword, but you are too strong, the scabbard can't hold you anymore, hey!
Thinking of this, he felt more justified. He turned his head and glanced at the Sword Qi Nearing who was pointing the tip of the sword at him, and said unhappily, "What are you looking at?"
[Sword Qi Approaches] The sword body trembled, and the tip of the sword moved a little closer to Lu Xun, and it was obvious that it was very angry.
But it couldn't possibly hurt Lu Xun.
Lu Xun is the junior fellow apprentice of its master and the beloved disciple of the person it reveres - the master.
What’s more, he is… the man chosen by the scabbard!
It made a sound of sword chimes, probably a curse.
But Lu Xun didn't care. The scabbard could understand what he said. However, although he followed the path of "man is the sword", he couldn't understand the sound of the sword.
You can scold me all you want, I don’t understand anyway, so I won’t get angry if I don’t understand.
But it’s different when I scold you. You’ll be so angry that you’ll die after understanding it!
With this mentality, Lu Xun didn't bother to pay attention to [Sword Qi Approaching] at all, but turned his head to look at the scabbard, checking its condition.
The scabbard's [durability] has been restored to 89/100, and most of the black airflow transformed by the soul-devouring fire has been integrated into the scabbard.
“My intuition tells me that this might be an opportunity for the scabbard. Maybe it’s a blessing in disguise.” Lu Xun thought to himself.
After [Durability] was restored to its full value, he indeed saw a prompt message.
"[Ding! The equipment has met the upgrade requirements. Do you want to upgrade it?]"
Lu Xun looked at the prompt message, overjoyed, and decisively chose [Yes].
The scabbard had swallowed the Yin Pearl, absorbed the energy from the green pearl, and was also tempered by the fire in the [Moon in the Well]... Bah, it was tempered by the [Eternal Fire], and now it has finally advanced!
This is all thanks to that fall on the south bank of the river...
"It turns out that the luck of the European Emperor can really be taken advantage of!" A certain Yan Emperor thought to himself.
The surrounding spiritual energy began to gather towards the scabbard frantically, and the black airflow transformed by the soul-devouring fire was also quickly absorbed.
[Sword Qi is Near] Looking at the scabbard, he immediately sensed the changes in the scabbard.
Lu Xun turned his head to look at it, relying on the fact that it didn't dare to cut him, and said, "Did you see that? It has only been with me for a few years, and it has advanced so quickly."
I'm so angry! I want to stab him to death! ——【Sword Qi Approaching】The sword body vibrates violently.
But no matter what, the advancement of the scabbard is indeed a fact, and this is something that makes it feel happy.
After all, it was too strong, so strong that the scabbard could no longer contain it.
Now that the scabbard has been upgraded, does it mean that from now on, I can... can... hahahahaha!
[Sword Qi is Near] I am beginning to look forward to the future.
Although it still looked at Lu Xun with displeasure and still hovered there arrogantly, it no longer pointed the tip of the sword at him, and instead of floating horizontally in the air, it stood upright in the air.
Lu Xun was very satisfied with this.
No matter how arrogant something is, as long as you gradually disintegrate it, one day it will throw away its weapons and be completely defeated!
This process is actually very interesting.
The advancement of the scabbard takes a lot of time. Lu Xun looked at [Jian Qi Jin] and said, "Hey, you have done what you should do now. According to the rules, you should go back to Cangshan, right?"
[Sword Qi Approaching] Upon hearing this, the sword sank slightly in the air, looking a little depressed.
After sinking, it quickly rose again, flying higher than before, as if to say, "So what?"
Lu Xun looked at it, his usual warm smile slowly appeared on his face, and he said:
"Would you like to follow me for a while?"
After saying this, he did not wait for [Sword Qi Approaching] to react, and continued to seduce:
"You followed me all the way. Even if you don't return to Cangshan before I return to the sect, no one will blame you, not even sir."
"And you know that, right? The scabbard will not go back with you for the time being. It will only stay by my side."
"Do you want to...stay with it?"
