The fifth volume is full of awe and martial arts legends Chapter 218: Finally Meeting Li Xunhuan
A master is visiting.
Li Muchan's face turned even paler, but it was not due to fear or terror. His eyes moved, and there seemed to be changes in the situation.
Because the person coming was Li Xunhuan.
Although Li Muchan had not seen the person coming, he had already felt an unprecedented and incredible aura.
Even though this energy was still outside Peacock Villa, quite far away, it already made him feel like a thorn in his back, a lump in his throat, and a sword hanging over his head, making him very uncomfortable.
Even if the other party has no hostility and no intention to kill , Li Muchan can't help but feel some resistance towards things and people that are beyond his control.
Because being beyond control means variables.
Pharmacist Li also noticed the change in Li Muchan, and she even heard those four words.
Xiao Li's Flying Dagger.
Facing Li Yaoshi's panic and Qiu Shuiqing's shock, Li Muchan simply said gently, "I'm going to be out for a while. The affairs of the Tianxia Alliance are almost settled. If I don't come back, you can discuss the rest among yourselves."
Qiu Shuiqing said in a deep voice: "How about we..."
Li Muchan smiled and said , "No need. If this martial arts legend really wants to kill me, not to mention the two of you, even ten or a hundred of you wouldn't be able to stop that flying knife. Don't worry, it's okay."
After saying this, he gave Li Pharmacist a reassuring look, then rose from the ground and rushed out of Peacock Villa like a wisp of green smoke.
The chirping of cicadas was heard around him. Li Muchan's body rose and fell very quickly, floating and swaying. In a blink of an eye, he was several feet away and flew out of Peacock Villa in just a few breaths.
And the energy also moved, it was indeed coming for him.
Li Muchan was thinking about how to respond when suddenly a fragrant breeze came from behind him, accompanied by the jingling sound of silver jewelry and pendants.
"What are you doing here?"
"Let me help you."
Pharmacist Li’s clear voice rang out.
She flew away lightly and quickly , and Li Muchan slowed down his pace and soon caught up with her.
Simple question, simple answer.
Li Muchan quickly pursued the energy, and Li Pharmacist followed closely.
This energy is so strange. It exists everywhere, and it seems to be omnipresent. It is not overbearing, nor does it oppress people. On the contrary, it is very peaceful, just like the breeze and flowing water, elusive, and seems to breathe with the grass and trees, and share the same veins with the mountains and rivers.
Li Muchan was full of admiration. This state was close to the Tao and close to nothingness.
He had felt this kind of astonishing cultivation in Zhu Si before.
Now Li Xunhuan is clearly the same as him, one of the people standing at the top of the world.
However, there are still some differences between the two. Zhu Si is as persistent as a devil, and his state of mind still has flaws, but Li Xunhuan may have reached the pinnacle of perfection and is almost perfect.
Li Muchan's pursuit lasted for more than two hours.
He didn't stop until the sun set in the west.
"Caught up?" asked Pharmacist Li.
Li Muchan raised his eyebrows and said, "No, it disappeared."
He looked around and suddenly caught sight of a small courtyard under the shade of trees not far away. It was surrounded by a fence covered with gourd vines, and there was a small river of clear water on the side, with the sound of water rushing endlessly.
Li Muchan looked around again, but he didn't know where he was chasing. He saw mountains and hills on all sides, green hills and clear waters. It was far away from the mundane world and very quiet.
At this moment, smoke suddenly rose from the yard, and the aroma of rice wafted out.
Li Muchan smiled and walked straight towards the courtyard without hesitation.
The closer you get, the more noises you can hear inside, including the crowing of roosters and the barking of dogs.
He came to the fence and looked over, only to see a man sitting by a stone mill in the yard.
This man was dressed in ordinary clothes, cloth clothes and straw sandals, with hair mixed with black and white. But when you look at his face, you can't hide his handsome appearance. Although there are clear wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, he miraculously does not look old, but instead gives people the illusion that he is very young.
What is young is the eyes.
This man's eyes are full of life and energy. He looks as young as those young men who have just started out in life. He also seems to be able to see through all the world's affairs. He is gentle like water, full of worldly wisdom, and makes people feel very warm.
There was a chicken coop in the corner of the yard. The woman came out holding a winnowing basket and turned into the kitchen.
Li Muchan said softly, "Excuse me!"
The old man was sitting in the sunset, holding a piece of wood in one hand and a three-inch long knife in the other. He was engrossed in carving. Upon hearing this, he smiled and said, "Come in!"
Li Muchan led Li Yaoshi through the door and entered. "Senior, are you Li Xunhuan, the Little Li Flying Dagger?"
Unexpectedly, the old man frowned when he heard this, then laughed, "Then it seems you have found the wrong person."
Now it was Li Muchan's turn to frown. He hesitated and asked, "Aren't you Li Xunhuan?"
The old man said, "I am Li Xun Huan, but not Xiao Li Fei Dao."
Pharmacist Li couldn't help but ask, "Senior, why are you teasing us? You once dominated the world with your swordsmanship, and your three-inch flying knife made you famous in the martial arts world. Why don't you dare to admit it now?"
Faced with this martial arts legend, Pharmacist Li was filled with both admiration and excitement. His tone was hurried, but there was also vigilance in his eyes.
Li Xun Huan stopped what he was doing, looked at Li Muchan, then looked at Li Yaoshi, and asked with a smile, "Little Li Flying Dagger? Where is the knife?"
Li Muchan subconsciously looked at the hand that Li Xunhuan was holding the knife, but when he saw it, his expression suddenly froze, and then changed drastically, because he saw that the other party was holding a wooden sword, three inches long.
Before he could speak, Li Xunhuan let go of the wooden sword, and it fell into the wood chips and sawdust.
Li Muchan's eyes fixed, and he asked in a deep voice, "Why did you abandon the knife?"
Li Xun Huan smiled with emotion, "That's just a piece of wood, how can it be a knife?"
"Besides," he stood up and dumped the wood chips and shavings all over the floor into a nearby charcoal basin, "a knife is a knife, a man is a man, and my name is Li Xun Huan, not Little Li Flying Dagger."
Pharmacist Li said with a complicated look in his eyes, "But the Li Xun Huan holding the Little Li Flying Dagger is the real Li Xun Huan, and only then can he be invincible."
Li Xun Huan shook his head. "But if I hold a knife in my hand, how can I eat, drink, love the people I love, do the things I love? How can I indulge in the world and hold the sun, moon and stars in my hands?"
Pharmacist Li wanted to say more, but was interrupted by Li Muchan, "The invincible one has never been Little Li Flying Dagger."
Li Xun Huan's eyes lit up, "Little brother, you are indeed a leader among today's rising stars. Seeing you, I feel like I'm seeing my former Shangguan."
He stared at Li Muchan for a moment, his eyes full of surprise.
There may be some differences in appearance, but in terms of momentum, aura, and even spirit, the two are almost terrifyingly similar, and Li Muchan is even more astonishing.
When Shangguan Jinhong swept across the martial arts world of thirteen provinces, he was already over thirty years old. Li Muchan is still young now, but his achievements are already remarkable. If he can achieve great success, his power in the future will definitely surpass Shangguan Jinhong.
Li Muchan said calmly, "I once vowed to take you as my goal and become you."
Li Xun Huan smiled and said, "Are you disappointed now?"
"No," Li Muchan looked at the flames burning in the charcoal stove, took a deep breath, and said lightly, "I've changed my mind now."
Although his words were soft, he meant it seriously.
Li Xun Huan asked, "What?"
Li Muchan said: "I want to surpass you."
Li Xun Huan laughed and sighed, "Then you shouldn't have come to me. The person you want to surpass isn't here."
Li Muchan pondered for a long time, his expression complicated as he asked, "Are you really just going to throw away everything you've learned in your life?"
Li Xun Huan let out a long sigh, "What I gave up was just the false reputation."
Li Muchan sighed, "There is no sword in my hand, and no sword in my heart either. What a wonderful state."
Li Xun Huan asked, "Who are you looking for now?"
Li Muchan smiled and said, "Looking for you."
