Chapter 471: Three Moves Have Passed
“What I learned from Lord Gongye Yuyu was that I was too narrow-minded…” Feng Lian laughed bitterly. After a long while, she finally realized the deeper meaning of Gongye Yuyu’s words. She immediately raised her head and looked at Gongye Yuyu in disbelief, she said word by word, “Wait, Lord Gongye Yuyu means that Phoenix General can win?!”
“Who knows? At the very least, he will win the first move.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the dazzling light in the arena finally dimmed. The qi that spread out like ripples finally subsided, and the entire arena exploded under the impact of the two people!
He Qi grinned and looked at Victor in disbelief. He said in surprise, “Ever since I comprehended martial arts, you are the first person in the same realm to have received my sword.”
“Hehe, what a coincidence. You are also the first person to receive my sword.” Victor flicked his sword lightly, making a loud sound. In the next moment, he shook his wrist and continued, “However, the second sword won’t be so easy!”
“Bring it on!”
“Great! My second sword attack is called Peace of Mind!”
He was a guest in a foreign country, and he did not know anyone.
He did not belong to this world, but for some special reason, he arrived here. Moreover, he did not know if he could leave.
The Eastern Plains and the Green Dragon Sect, which one was his home?
This question had been bothering Victor for a long time. After so long, he still had not found a place to call home?
No, wherever one’s peace of mind was, that would be their home.
He was not alone. He had his master, Ye Lingxuan, Lian Hua, and Nalan Lengling. Wherever they were would be where his home was!
Therefore, this second sword was Victor’s way of finding a peace of mind as a foreigner.
“Just the stance of the sword itself already has so much power?”
Looking at the scene in front of him, He Qi frowned. He did not dare to slack off at all.
Even someone as remarkable as him was surprised by Victor’s second sword.
The power of this sword contained not only spiritual energy, qi dynamics, but also strong emotions.
It was the feeling of a foreigner who had finally found a place to rest in peace.
“In comparison, this second move of mine is a little lacking. However, if I think about it, it should still be enough.”
“Second move! Mirror Stop!”
Many years ago, when He Qi had not joined the Central Plains Sect Alliance, he was just an itinerant cultivator.
He Qi was different from Victor, who was a stranger from another country. He Qi was lucky.
Although he was born in a humble family, he was raised by his parents. He had a decent youth too.
When he was seven years old, his father wanted to send him to cultivate, but he refused. He liked to play with his spear and stick. As time passed, the father and son gradually stopped communicating and a gap formed between them.
That was until He Qi met the woman who changed his life.
A smile over the shoulder form her turned his heart into a wild tide.
The woman taught him martial arts and gave him a knife made of Peach Wood. From then on, he became addicted to it, and it was out of control.
However, after asking around, he found out that she was the daughter of the master of the martial arts school in the city. Not to say that she had an illustrious status, but he, a poor kid, was really not a match for her.
He did think about eloping, but before he could take action, it was too late.
Since then, he was depressed for three years, neglected his cultivation for three years, and took another three years to walk out from this past.
In these nine years, apart from his abilities, he had also cultivated.
His heart was as still as water, and his state of mind was calm.
“I stepped into the path of material arts because of her. Similarly, I grip onto the hilt of my saber tightly for her. I highly doubt that my feelings for her aren’t as strong as yours.”
He Qi laughed loudly. There was no emotion in his eyes, they were as still as water!
Bang!
The air surged. Victor and He Qi’s figures were at the center of the explosion, but they did not move at all!
The two of them carried the feelings of longingness in their hearts and poured them into their sword and blade!
However, He Qi was still at a disadvantage.
It was not that he had not invested enough emotions. It was just that when he recalled the past, he found it difficult to maintain his state of mind and his mind ended up in a mess.
In an instant, his thoughts were like a flood and a ferocious beast, completely drowning He Qi. Although he managed to survive the second attack, he was also injured!
After the dust settled, He Qi held the hilt of his saber and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
“Damn it, I messed up my thoughts and loosened my grip.” He mocked himself, hiding the feelings in his eyes.
Victor did not comment on this.
He could feel that He Qi’s second attack was not weaker than his. It was not too much to say that they were evenly matched.
However, for some unknown reason, He Qi’s strength suddenly extremely declined. When he thought of the name of his second attack, it must have messed up his state of mind.
“With this attitude, I’m afraid that after three moves, you will definitely lose.”
“That might not be the case. How dare you guarantee the winner if you don’t unleash your third move?”
“I dare.”
These two simple words spoke of Victor’s confidence!
He stood with his sword in hand, the corners of his clothes, and the strands of hair on his temples fluttered in the wind.
This scene had mesmerized countless women, including Feng Lian.
There was nothing she could do. This man was too dazzling, but even she, who was in the nascent soul realm, could not muster any confidence in front of Victor.
“I want to see what’s different about your third move.”
He Qi tore off the corner of his clothes and wrapped it around the blade. He slowly wiped it, but Victor did not rush him.
After a long time, the two of them recovered to their peak. They seemed to have a tacit understanding.
“My third move is called Heaven Changing!”
Gongye Yuyu said that he was the hope that the Eastern Plains had spent their fate to obtain. To be honest, Victor did not believe him.
However, being born in a small place, he had also seen many wicked things.
“Everyone says that the Eastern Plains is a land abandoned by immortals, but I don’t think so.
“So what if I was born in the Eastern Plains? Sooner or later, I will take back what belongs to the Eastern Plains! All of it!”
Only when he dared to sacrifice so much for his ambition would he dare to change the sun and moon into a new sky!
The strange thing was that this third move, compared to the first two moves, was ordinary.
There was no qi, no spiritual power, only a sword.
Seeing this scene, He Qi frowned.
“My third move is Unforgettable.”
He Qi’s tone was unbelievably calm. He looked at the blade that had his reflection in it and fell into deep thought.
The girl who had changed his life had left in the end.
In order to advance to a third-rate sect, the martial arts school in the city sent the girl to another third-rate sect as a marriage alliance. It also acted as a guarantee for it to advance to a third-rate sect.
He Qi had already forgotten how his state of mind was when he heard this news.
However, he still remembered the last sentence that the girl said to him.
Where did the hopes and promises go as the time passed without ever returning?
A pair of lovers meant for each other yet separated by heaven’s means.
In this lifetime, it was better not to have met each other.
Later, the girl jumped into the river and died, protecting her reputation.
In the end, it was unforgettable!
He Qi gripped the hilt of his saber tightly, looked at the sword that was coming at him, and slashed out with the Yanling Saber in his hand!
If it was hard to forget, it was better not to forget.
All of his qi and spiritual power was continuously restrained until it became calm. He Qi looked ahead, and the Yanling Saber finally collided with the Rose Sword.
