    “Fight if you can fight, run if you can’t, and remember toe home early.”


    This farewell speech from two elder martial sisters warmed Lu Xun’s heart a little.


    “But… why didn’t they give me something to protect myself with before I descended the mountain?” Lu Xun was puzzled.


    He recalled this sort of scene from TV dramas and novels he had seen.


    Not long after, Shen Yan arrived at the back mountain with someone.


    Lu Xun could not help butugh when he saw the person Shen Yan brought, it was a familiar face.


    “Murong Yan, have you lost weight?” Lu Xun joked.


    “Greetings to Young Elder. Indeed, I’ve lost a little bit of weight.” A signature honest smile appeared on Murong Yan’s face.


    She did lose some weight, from more than two hundred pounds to just about two hundred pounds.


    Her parents named her with the hope that she would be as carefree as a little swallow, but she not only ended up not having the gracefulness of a swallow but also became an object of ridicule.


    Murong Yan was a good choice. Her cultivation base was at the second realm, that is, just over level twenty, which was neither too high nor too low.


    She wasn’t very well-known in the cultivation world, and she was kind and honest, but not stupid, and was very meticulous. She was the kind who was foolishly wise.


    By normal development, Murong Yan would have be a novice mentor in the Demon Sect’s new yer vige. Bringing her along with Lu Xun to make the first contact with the yers was a good choice.


    “Then let’s set off,” Lu Xun said.


    Murong Yan nodded, took out her Swan Feather Sword, and stood on it together with Lu Xun.


    If it weren’t for the fact that Murong Yan had recently lost a bit of weight and improved her cultivation base a little, the Swan Feather Sword might not have been able to bear the weight of the two of them.


    The flying sword flew through the sky, passing by Lead Peak toplete the formalities of leaving the sect, including registration.


    Seeing Lead Peak, which was like a sword sheath, again, Lu Xun couldn’t help but look down at his own sword sheath in his hand. They were indeed quite simr.


    Before saying goodbye to Shen Yan, Shen Yan specially cast a secret method on the sword sheath, unless the cultivation base was higher than Shen Yan’s, no one could see the specific rank of the sword sheath.


    While registering, Lu Xun saw Ji Li’s name on the list of people who had left the sect.


    “Why did she go down the mountain?” Lu Xun was puzzled, “Why didn’t she tell me?.


    But upon careful thinking, she couldn’t freelye and go from the back mountain, and he had promised to visit her regrly, but… he failed to do so again.


    “Did this naughty girl go down the mountain to seek revenge?” Lu Xun spected in his heart, feeling it was highly likely.


    Her family had been wiped out due to an ident involving the Wedding Sword and a forbidden technique. Now that Ji Li had some cultivation base, the first thing she’d want to do is surely to seek revenge.


    After all, the so-called innate experts in the world were just about at the strength of the third level of Qi Consumption Technique. With Ji Li’s qualifications, plus the Green Pill she was rewarded withst time, she might have advanced to the fourth level of Qi Consumption Technique.


    And she had the Wedding Sword in her hands which was much better than ordinary iron. She should be fine.


    “Speaking of which… where did she say her hometown was?” Lu Xun recalled in his heart.


    Anyway, he was nning to go down the mountain and try his luck to see if he could meet a randomly appearing yer. So which direction he was heading in didn’t matter.


    He was more or less worried about Ji Li. After all, she was a person who had sacrificed her brain for a chest. You wouldn’t trust her either, would you? “Does Young Elder wish to find Sister Ji Li?” Murong Yan nced at Lu Xun and asked.


    Being observant, she could probably guess what Lu Xun was thinking.


    Lu Xun nodded, not denying it.


    “Sister Ji Li’s hometown is Yongan County,” Murong Yan said again.


    “Yes, it’s Yongan County. But how did you know?” Lu Xun asked.


    “Because I asionally visit Sister Ji Li on the Outer Mountain and she mentioned it during our casual chats.” Murong Yan exined with a simple smile.


    This made Lu Xun, who had never taken the initiative to visit Ji Li even once, feel ashamed, ashamed for a whole three seconds.


    “Then let’s set off,” Lu Xun said.


    “Sure.” Murong Yan summoned her flying sword again.


    Amid the salutes of disciples on Lead Peak, the young elder of the Demon Sect officially descended the mountain.


    Lu Xun and Murong Yan stood on the flying sword together. As they left the top of the Lead Peak, Lu Xun couldn’t help but look back again.


    It was this nce that something seemed to happen!


    For some reason, he saw the Sword Qi hidden in Lead Peak again!


    Thest time he checked, Shen Yan had used a secret method to assist him, in the hope that he could learn something by studying the Sword Qi.


    He was told he could only look once, as looking too much would kill him, so Lu Xun had really only peeked once.


    But who would have thought, he had shy-ed the Sword Qi!


    He only took one look, and the Sword Qi hid itself first!


    Lu Xun hadn’t figured out the reason for this yet.


    However, he could see the Sword Qi now because it was proactive and wanted him to see it, deliberately appearing in front of his eyes!


    He couldn’t quite describe the sensation, but mainly, he saw the Sword Qi…split!


    Yes, half of the Sword Qi split off a small separate part!


    Then this small Sword Qi flew towards Lu Xun!


    His brain hadn’t even had time to think about whether he would be killed, and the Sword Qi was already beside him.


    Too fast, the speed was even more extreme considering it was just a small split-off from the original Sword Qi!


    This sudden change was undetectable to ordinary cultivators. Even Murong Yan, who was beside Lu Xun, only felt a sudden chill run down her spine out of instinct, without knowing what exactly had happened.


    But Shen Yan and other Peak Masters, who were great cultivators, immediately sensed it! However, everything happened too fast, even they had no time to react!


    If this Sword Qi attacked Lu Xun, not just him, but even Murong Yan by his side would certainly die. Even the Swan Feather Sword would be blown into dust!


    However, Shen Yan and others seemed calm, showing no surprise.


    This wasn’t the first time something like this had happened. When Mao Nanbei came down the mountain for the first time, half a Sword Qi did the same thing.


    But there was a difference. For Mao Nanbei, the Sword Qi attached itself to his left index finger, while this time it entered Lu Xun’s sword sheath!


    This was why Mao Nanbei and the second elder martial sister did not give Lu Xun any defensive objects.


    The half Sword Qi could perceive the small ck stone piece worn on Lu Xun’s body, and it was more familiar with the sword sheath than Lu Xun.


    Because this half Sword Qi came from the renowned sword, “The Sword Qi is Near”!


    On the Swan Feather Sword, Lu Xun was covered in cold sweat. Looking down at his sword sheath, he was stunned by this sudden operation!


    “Scoundrel! How about some warning in advance!” Lu Xun cursed in his heart.


    Atop Hidden Mountain, surrounded by lush green grass, “The Sword Qi is Near” let out a satisfying hum.
