Under the ring, Marquis wiped the fresh blood from the corner of his mouth, bowed to Lu Xun again, saluted him, and then turned to rejoin the challengers.
Lu Xun watched his retreating figure, lost in thought.
“According to the plot trajectory of my past life, this Marquis might not have come to challenge the Demon Sect.”
“He must have heard of my Natural Sword Embryo and decided to seek guidance here.”
After all, according to the normal course, Lin Chan would only join the Demon Sect at the end of the year. Therefore, the Demon Sect, except for Yan Li, who was closed to death, did not originally have a Natural Sword Embryo.
And the Natural Sword Embryo, for the sword-obsessed Marquis, was extremely attractive.
“It seems to be a butterfly effect again,” Lu Xun thought to himself.
Will it affect the life of this Sword Pond Successor?
Maybe a little?
You should know that according to the memory of my past life, I haven’t heard of a Marquis of Sword Pond in my previous life.
Even if he had tried his best in the Sword Dao…
At this very moment, outside the Small Study in the back mountain of the Demon Sect.
The teacher was lazily sitting on a wooden chair, like an old man basking in the warm sun.
Third Brother Zhuge Lai Fu was making tea, as he said: “I wonder if our Little Junior Brother would feel a little uncomfortable in such an occasion for the first time.”
“I think he’s quite comfortable!” The teacher said without good temper.
It turned out that the teacher had been sensing the situation on the scene.
But for the past Outer Sect contests, the teacher had never been interested. It’s unknown why he’s silently paying attention this time?
Zhuge Lai Fu smiled and began to pour tea for the teacher.
The teacher took a sip of hot tea and suddenly muttered: “His nature is good, but his talent is a bit poor.”
“Teacher, who are you talking about?” Zhuge Lai Fu asked.
The teacher put down the teacup and said, “One of your Little Junior Brother’s opponents, I didn’t even expect that Sword Pond still has a successor. Hmm…he’s quite pleasing to the eye.”
If these words were heard by other spectators on Yanwu Peak, they would probably be speechless.
Marquis’ rough skin, weathered from countless winds and suns, could not even be nourished back to normal by spiritual power.
Moreover, his deep frown lines and slightly awkward temperament…
He’s perfectly, ordinarily ugly.
And of course, Zhuge Lai Fu knew what the teacher’s “pleasing to the eye” could mean.
For example… like Zhuge Lai Fu himself.
Perhaps because he found Marquis’ appearance pleasing, or for some other reason, the teacher half-closed his eyes and meticulously examined his body constitution.
After doing all this, he picked up the teacup. The elegantly raised orchid finger gently tapped on the rim of the cup, and a droplet jumped up.
The teacher stretched out his left hand and lightly touched the droplet. Inside this tiny droplet, a small world seemed to form, with radiant light flowing irregularly.
At his will, the droplet disappeared in the blink of an eye, and flew quickly towards Yanwu Peak.
“Whoosh”
The droplet passed over everyone on the high platform.
Today, many of the Great Cultivators in the outer sect of Demon Sect were at the sixth realm or higher, but they seemed to be completely unaware of the suddenly appeared droplet.
Including Shen Yan, a cultivator at the eighth realm, nobody noticed the droplet that shot from the back mountain.
The droplet flew over the high platform and came to Marquis’ side.
“Plop!”
The sound was very soft, as if a drop of rain had fallen on his clothes.
In fact, it had seeped into Marquis’ body instantly.
“Puff—!” Marquis abruptly spurted out another mouthful of blood.
This time it was more intense, it even splashed onto the Sword Cultivator standing next to him.
The next moment, Marquis’ vision went black, and he fainted outright!
No one noticed, not even he himself for the time being, that one of his channels in his body…
Had deviated!
The impact brought about by a change in a channel is actually limited.
The teacher added a piece of charcoal to this person in the snow, but only one piece.
Whether this will change his life, everything is actually unknown.
It is still one point, but nineteen points plus one point is only twenty points. Fifty-nine points plus one point is sixty points and a pass. Ninety-nine points plus one point is a perfect score of one hundred!
It still depends on him.
At this moment, the most baffled person was Lu Xun.
“Damn, was my move so heavy just now?” He looked down at his right hand, a little confused.
“I’m sure I held back, and he only sustained minor injuries. Why did he faint now?”
Lu Xun looked up at the sky and wanted to say: “His fainting has nothing to do with me!”
It feels a bit awkward!
The “seriously injured and unconscious” Marquis was quickly taken away by the Disciples of the Demon Sect, taken down for treatment with elixirs.
Now, many people’s gazes at Lu Xun have changed.
Except for idiots, everyone can see that Lu Xun absolutely held back.
But under such circumstances, a Sword Cultivator who had already comprehended the Sword Intent couldn’t hold on in the end and fainted from serious injuries.
It seems…that’s because of the difference in the grade of Sword Intent!
The Young Elder of Demon Sect, what a terrifying force!
The other sixteen Sword Cultivators were relieved in secret. If they were to face that sword just now, they might be the ones lying down now.
With the battles between the Sword Cultivators finished, Lu Xun didn’t rush to return to the high platform but continued to stand in the center of the ring with a gentle smile on his face. He looked around at the remaining challengers and asked:
“Are there more challengers?”
The magnetic voice, deep yet gentle, would make those who didn’t know think it’s some top-tier idol asking his fans, “Anyone else wants a photo?”
There are so many challengers. Only those who wanted to challenge Lu Xun’s Sword Dao have just performed. Originally, there must have been others in the queue who wanted to challenge.
However, after Lu Xun’s terrifying performance just now, anyone who jumps out and says, ‘I want to challenge’, will look like a clown.
On the platform, Xiao Ran, sitting in her chair, tightly gripped her own skirt. She really wanted to go down and ask Uncle Lu for some tips.
“Oh, I’m so stuffy!” She patted her slender chest to calm her fighting spirit.
It’s against the rules, and she might be punished by her master.
She sneakily glanced at her master and found that Zhao Suihan was watching Lu Xun with a motherly glow in her eyes.
This “mother fan” was already crazy about Lu Xun, just shy of saying something like, “Lu Bao, fly freely, mom will always follow you”.
Next, on the stage, Lu Xun asked three times:
“Are there more challengers?”
The scene fell silent, with no response.
Nobody dared to answer.
