Anything can be a Sword if You Believe it to be a Sword
Face on fire, Tian Jijian snapped, “Gu Yitian, kill him already! You want your shifu to die?!”
Gu Yitian’s sword rattled in his grip.
Mu Yu gave Tian Jijian a condescending grin. “You bowed your head to Third Heaven Palace on your own accord?”
“So what if I did? They are the rulers of Third Heaven Continent. I’m a man who knows how to choose his sides.”
“Since you’re not at Divine Soul Formation’s mercy, I won’t have any qualms killing you.”
“Hahaha, you have to get through Gu Yitian first.”
“You can’t kill him,” asserted Gu Yitian.
“Xiaoshuai, lend me the skewer.”
“You better compensate me with tw-, thr-, four skewers, then,” Xiaoshuai responded.“Nice skewer.” Mu Yu scanned the last hawthorn with Xiaoshuai’s teeth marks on it and then flicked it at Tian Jijian.
“I said you can’t kill him!”
Gu Yitian mustered up his energy to catch the skewer. Unfortunately, he only caught the last hawthorn, while the skewer’s momentum carried on, exiting from the rear of Tian Jijitian’s head.
“I said you can’t kill him!” thundered Gu Yitian.
“I will kill whoever I deem deserving regardless of what reason he has to live.”
“My shifu will die if he dies!” Gu Yitian squashed the hawthorn in his hand.
“I told you your emotions have clouded your judgement. Your shifu won’t die if he dies because your shifu is more valuable than he is. If Daoist Boyang dies, would you be at their beck and call?”
Gu Yitian jerked back, finally seeing his folly.
“Hahaha, just as I expected of Mu Yu.” Two Ascension Realm cultivators jumped into the ring; one of them glanced over to Tian Jijian’s corpse. “Your shifu certainly still is useful.”
“That being said, if you don’t complete your mission today, I’ll rip the cripple’s remaining arm off. Actually, I’ll take his legs, too,” threatened the other individual sporting black, inflaming Gu Yitian, who had just calmed down. “Mu Yu, I admire your courage for showing up here after killing Xi Hongyi, hahaha.”
“Names?” Mu Yu demanded.
“Qi Xiangsheng,” replied rank seven.
“Lu Mingyuan,” replied rank six.
Wanwan meandered over to Mu Yu’s side. “Two on three, then. Perfect. Mu Yu, I love winning with the odds against me.”
“You come prepared?” Mu Yu questioned.
“Warmed up to kill you, yes,” slighted Qi Xiangsheng.
Gu Yitian pointed his sword at Mu Yu. “Sorry, but I have to kill you. In addition… I’ve always wanted a rematch.”
“You’ll be satisfied.” Mu Yu snapped off an iron railing and morphed it into an iron sword identical to Shadow Splitter Sword.
“Use your sword.”
“This is plenty.”
“I don’t want to fight you with a handicap. My sword is my brother. Even if it’s only an ordinary sword, it’s a premium weapon I’m used to. On the other hand, that’s a sword you’re not used to.”
“A swordsman’s sword exists in his mind. If he believes it is a sword, anything he wields it a sword. Call it Mental Edge if you will.”
Gu Yitian’s eyes sparkled in agreement.
“I only slay evil with my sword,” Mu Yu asserted.
Gu Yitian sheathed his sword and then copied Mu Yu, snapping off an iron railing to turn to a sword identical to his own. “We’re even now.”
The two blocked out the rest of the world to focus solely on the opponent before them. Neither of them gave each other an inch. Neither of them was any less impressive just because they did not wield their signature swords. From nine swords to one, Mu Yu thrust. From an ordinary sword to a sword that could freeze air, Gu Yitian advanced.
Being able to destroy did not necessarily make one strong. Being able to protect was what truly proved one was strong for protecting was harder than destroying.
