“Um... Who are the sword immortals this girl keeps talking about...”
“Are they the people who can fly on swords?”
“She seems to be looking for sword immortals...”
“She said that the true sword immortals can control swords with essence and travel 1,000 kilometers in one breath! They sound powerful...”
“I would like to see such a sword immortal too...” Sala said excitedly, “It would feel great to fly while standing on a sword!”
“It seems that Yun Tianhe’s parents are... sword immortals?”
“Ya-! Then, will Yun Tianhe become a sword immortal too?!”
While playing the game, the elves talked animatedly with the knights and mercenaries.
Of course, some people were not interested in this idea. For example, Commander Elven said, “Our golden griffins are our life-long battle companions. Flying on swords sounds cool, but the honor of knights doesn’t allow us to abandon our battle companions. I think we must check out something else.”
“Haha! Yun Tianhe is so silly! I wonder how his father taught him...”
“‘I’d rather learn some self-defense sword skills to kill wild boars...’ Hehe, he’s funny.”
Remembering how Yun Tianhe mistook Han Lingsha as a demon boar, Elina became amused as well. “Haha! I think this guy has dealt with demon boars all his life. He knows nothing but wild boars or demon boars.”
“This Lingsha keeps talking about looking for treasures and legends. Is she a treasure hunter?!” some elves asked curiously.
“It’s likely...”
“Hahaha! I like this kid (Yun Tianhe).” Harrison laughed as well, “He is not stupid but very honest. After all, he had to deal with wild beasts to survive from a very young age.”
The story seemed to drive some of the worries from his mind.
The enemies that the assassins would face were too powerful. Without thinking, they were certain that a big trap would wait for them when they go to try to rescue their old peers.
Only in such moments could they alleviate a portion of the mountain-like pressure that they were feeling.
“Let’s watch some more before we go and train in the virtual reality mode.”
“Wow... I never knew that a tomb chamber could be so beautiful...” The tomb chamber in the Rock Creek Cave was covered in thick ebony ice, and the sparkling lights inside the tomb chamber flew over and gathered around the blazing Wangshu Sword in Yun Tianhe’s hand.
“So beautiful...!” To see the beautiful tomb chamber, the elves had hurried into this place too.
Obviously, nothing could stop the steps of the fans of natural beauty.
Yun Tianhe waved his hand casually.
Wherever the sword energy went, the ebony ice and walls in the tomb chamber were all cut into two.
Then, the earth-shaking booming noises sounded.
“Ahhh-! The tomb is collapsing! Run! Run!” The elves ran faster than bunnies.
...
For the players in the old shops, the world of the Legend of the Sword and Fairy 4 was also a new backdrop. They could only find a few traces about such factions in a few scrolls in the Shu Mountain Faction.
In the Legend of the Sword and Fairy 1 era, the fall of the Qionghua Faction was an unexplainable ancient mystery.
Now, they were trying to find the answer to the mystery by tracing the footsteps of the people who were ancient even for the characters in the Legend of the Sword and Fairy 1.
[How come I feel like this story so far has nothing to do with the Qionghua Faction...?]
[Maybe Yun Tianhe’s parents are related to the Qionghua Faction...?]
In Su Tianji’s livestreaming room, all kinds of questions flooded her screen.
“Ugh...?” Su Tianji chose an option and said, “Do you see that? I can choose to control Han Lingsha!”
In the game, if the players weren’t in the important parts involving crucial events and the learning of dharma spells, they could change some of the later plot through their different actions.
If the players wanted to get the perfect ending, they could do it by looking at Han Lingsha’s actions from the perspective of Yun Tianhe. Likewise, they could choose to play as Han Lingsha and see how Yun Tianhe made his decisions.
Of course, since the players would have the memories, habits, and intuitions of these characters in their mind, they could feel what they should do next.
“I feel like I must go to a place named... Nest Lake.” While controlling Han Lingsha, Su Tianji explained, “In the Legend of Sword and Fairy game series, there are always wild animals and monsters in the wildness. I have a feeling that we can’t reach it before night. Will we encounter any dangers...”
Bullet comments shot up on the screen.
Song Qingfeng said, [It’s easy when you encounter danger. Just use the sword control technique.]
Lin Shao chimed in, [She doesn’t need the sword control technique. With a shot of the Su Tianji Cannon, she can destroy the whole lake.]
The Cloud Ocean Faction Master Ye Songtao commented, [She can swim in the lake by jumping with the leap of faith. She’ll be fine even if she lands on her face.]
“Oh! You guys!” Su Tianji had the urge to jump up and beat them.
“I remember every one of you who badmouthed me.”
“Humph!” In the game, Han Lingsha gritted her teeth under Su Tianji’s control. “Don’t let me catch you guys.
Don’t run after you get offline. These people are infuriating! If I knew a day like this would happen, I wouldn’t have livestreamed Assassin’s Creed that day!
It was night in the game.
The reeds swayed around in the lake. Putting up a bonfire and sleeping on the bank of the river in the high reeds under the moon was quite an enjoyable experience.
In the new shop, the scenery-loving elves stood by the lake and watched as the sun set in the west across the lake and moon rose high into the sky from the east.
Of course, if Yun Tianhe wasn’t starving and didn’t try to draw out male boars by copying the honks of a female boar, the players could continue enjoying the tranquil beauty.
“Oh! I didn’t know that hunting can be done this way!” The elves looked interested. After all, they had grown up in the forest, and hunting was their strong suit.
While considering trying this trick when they returned, the elves stared at the reeds intently.
“No! Intense murderous spirit!” The elves had acute senses, and so did Yun Tianhe who had grown up in the mountains; his senses were even sharper.
In a flash, Yun Tianhe rolled to one side.
A black shadow lunged out from the deep reeds. It was so swift that it brought sharp winds with it.
“Monsters!” Han Lingsha yelled in alarm.
Then, the players saw that the attackers were tigers standing on hind legs.
“Lightning Spell!” Helen had also come to this place. Bright blue lightning bolts erupted from her sword.
“Fly Feather Arrow!” Almost instantly, Elf Captain Lance controlled Yun Tianhe to dodge the attack and then pull the bow to the fullest.
Fly Feather Arrow was an archery skill that Yun Tianhe created. With his poor talent and more than a decade of hunting experience in the mountains, Yun Tianhe obviously was very skillful in archery instead of cultivation.
Likewise, these elves were also skillful archers. Elf Captain Lance had even added some of the Elf Clan’s excellent archery skills into his shooting.
Wangshu Sword shot out like a rainbow.
Swoosh!
The monster moved like a flash of lightning.
“Didn’t hit the vital point?!” Lance was startled. “These monsters are powerful!”
Fortunately, Wangshu could fly back by itself.
After catching Wangshu, Elf Captain Lance placed the sword on the bow again, feeling as if he were hunting magic beasts in the forest. “Interesting.”
On the other side, Helen and other knights dashed toward the demon beasts with the sword in hand.
Sword energies flew on the screen.
“We should be fine as long as we kill all these demon beasts?” Su Tianji also had Wangshu in her hand. Obviously, she had switched back from Han Lingsha to Yun Tianhe. “It was an accident in Assassin’s Creed, okay? Now, I’ll show you my real skill!”
With a strong gust, a monster lunged at her with a roar.
Su Tianji lifted her sword and charged.
Ear-piercing grinding noises sounded when the sword connected with the monsters’ claws. The sharp claws were swept to one side by the blade, and then a streak of blood gushed out.
A deep bloody wound appeared in the neck of one monster.
“How about this counterattack?” Su Tianji said proudly, “Who dares to call me an idle streamer?!”
“Awesome!”
“This is interesting.”
“Not as good as Senior Nalan.”
“It’s good; it is good enough. After all, Senior is a professional at using swords. No one is his match.”
Soon, she killed the second monster.
Praises instantly flooded the screen.
“Hahahaha!” Su Tianji was smug when she looked at the couple of monsters lying dead on the ground. “I can deal with 40 of such minor monsters.”
“Roar!”
Roars sounded while about 40 demon beasts charged out from the reeds.
Su Tianji gaped at the scene in a daze. “!!??”
F**k! Don’t do this to me! I’m doing a livestream!
[I want to watch how Elder Su deals with about 40 monsters alone!]
[Elder Su’s sword skills are unrivalled!]
[Elder Su: I can deal with 40 of such minor monsters.]
“!!!” Su Tianji almost jumped up from her seat.
Damn it! Can I livestream properly?!
In fact, many other players had also come to this part.
Han Lingsha had been wounded while they escaped. Yun Tianhe guarded her and didn’t have any intention to flee by himself. It seemed like they were doomed.
“My goodness...”
“What can they do now?!”
“How come there are so many monsters...”
Merlin slapped his hand on his thigh and said, “I don’t believe that they can escape this time!”
Suddenly, sword energies flashed in the sky like shooting stars.
“Look! What are those?!”
Forming a prison with sword array, many flight swords with blazing white spiritual light turned into a sword array in the sky and surrounded the demon beasts!
“Sword immortals?!” Sala and other elves instantly exclaimed.
