"Master!"
Cynanchum Chinense was so scared that her face turned pale. Tears welled up in her eyes. She was really scared when the Fire and Ice Lotus shattered. Her heart felt like it was being twisted. It wasn't that she was afraid of death, but she was worried about how she would explain it to her master if Lady Zi Ningjun and Princess Long were implicated.
Shen Zhenyi glanced at her indifferently. He held Lady Zi Ningjun's hand and confirmed that she wasn't hurt.
"Are you okay?"
He asked.
"I'm fine." Lady Zi Ningjun lowered her head. Her voice was filled with fear.
"Let's go back." Shen Zhenyi waved his hand. He didn't care about the chaotic Heaven-Breaking Sect members and turned to leave.
Cynanchum Chinense and Princess Long were as obedient as kittens. They didn't say a word and followed Shen Zhenyi closely.
The Heaven-Breaking Sect members were shocked and angry. One of the bolder ones shouted, "Third Young Master Shen, are you going to leave just like that?"
Lady Zi Ningjun and the other two launched a surprise attack. They didn't kill anyone, but they triggered Fu Potian's blade will and killed a few high-ranking members of the Heaven-Breaking Sect. Shen Zhenyi had to be blamed for this.
Shen Zhenyi stopped in his tracks. He looked at them and asked coldly, "What do you want?"
The person at the front only dared to ask because he was hot-headed. Now that he was intimidated by the Third Young Master Shen's aura, he took a step back in fear. He looked around. The Heaven-Breaking Sect members were angry, but they didn't dare to say anything. They lowered their heads like cowards. They could only mutter, "Third Young Master Shen, our Sect Master is in seclusion at the entrance of the Abandoned Sword Villa. You sent people to kill him. You don't have the honor of a martial artist. You … you should at least give us an explanation."
His tone was weak, but in fact, he didn't dare to ask for an explanation. He only regretted speaking carelessly just now. Wasn't it good to let Shen Zhenyi go?
Shen Zhenyi said casually, "This is the territory of the Abandoned Sword Villa. You are here without permission. So what if I kill you?"
Domineering!
Cynanchum Chinense was overjoyed, her eyes shining. In the end, he was still his master. His words were always so domineering. That was the truth! This is the territory of the Abandoned Sword Villa. Even if you want to kill someone, just kill them. What are you going to do to Luo Hou?
The man from the Potian Dao Sect was at a loss for words. His whole body was drenched in cold sweat. How could he say anything? Just as he was about to retreat, Shen Zhenyi suddenly spoke again.
"However, for the sake of fairness, in two days' time, when I fight Fu Potian, I will give him three cuts."
What?
"Master, you can't …"
Cynanchum Chinense cried out involuntarily, "This was my idea. At worst, I will bear the responsibility. Master, how can you be careless in this battle of life and death?!"
Shen Zhenyi clearly said that he wasn't confident in winning against Fu Potian. Now that he was going to give him three cuts, wouldn't he be at a disadvantage in this battle?
Cynanchum Chinense felt regret in her heart. If her master lost the initiative in this battle because of her, then she would have the heart to die.
Shen Zhenyi ignored her and turned to leave.
The man from the Potian Dao Sect was pleasantly surprised. He didn't expect that just a few words from him would be exchanged for a compromise. Didn't this mean that he had done a great service for the Sect Master?!
In two days' time, when the Sect Master defeated the Third Young Master Shen and unified the world, his contribution would be boundless!
He was dizzy as if he were drunk. He shouted excitedly, "Third Young Master Shen, you are an unparalleled swordsman. You can't go back on your words!"
Hurry up and nail this matter down. There shouldn't be any more unforeseen events.
Princess Long's face turned pale. She tugged on Shen Zhenyi's sleeve and pleaded, "Master, please reconsider! How can you retreat first and show weakness in a battle between two armies? "
Although Lady Zi Ningjun didn't say anything, she stood quietly in front of Shen Zhenyi with a resolute expression.
Although the three girls had different personalities, they all had the same thought.
— — They couldn't harm Shen Zhenyi because of their own mistakes.
Shen Zhenyi smiled and shook his head. "Don't worry, I didn't give him three cuts because of you."
He paused for a moment before continuing, "I said from the start that this is the Abandoned Sword Villa's territory. You're all disciples of the Abandoned Sword Villa. Even if you killed Fu Potian, I wouldn't blame you, let alone a few Potian Dao Sect members."
These words warmed everyone's heart. Cynanchum Chinense teared up and said, "Master, then why did you …"
Shen Zhenyi waved his hand. "I saw that although his blade intent had formed, it still needed to be nurtured. Fu Potian was a peerless genius, but he couldn't cut off the shackles in his heart. He cultivated the Heartless Heavenly Blade. If he couldn't cut off his emotions, it would be difficult for him to improve his blade technique beyond the realm of the Heavenly Dao. "
Fu Potian was already an outstanding figure of the younger generation 400 years ago. After the incident, he learned from his painful experience, and his blade technique became even fiercer and more ruthless.
Unfortunately, he was originally a person of true emotions. Because of the death of his lover, he changed to the Heartless Heavenly Blade, which conflicted with him. After 400 years of setbacks, he finally achieved great success.
— — Even so, there were still shackles in his blade intent.
"Therefore, I let him use three cuts first. Cut the heavens, cut the earth, and cut himself. After the three cuts, everything in the world of eight cultivators would have nothing to do with him. After the fourth cut, he would be able to cut off his emotions and thoughts, transcending mortality. "
Only with such a blade would Shen Zhenyi have the need to fight.
Otherwise, the Moon Decapitation and Ascension would be nothing more than an illusion.
The three women didn't fully understand, but they understood the general meaning.
— — So, not only did you guide Fu Potian to enter seclusion at the entrance of the Abandoned Sword Villa to surpass the highest realm, but you also gave him the opportunity to experience actual combat and surpass himself?
How much do you want to cultivate a powerful enemy!?
Cynanchum Chinense and Princess Long looked at each other with worried expressions. They really couldn't understand this man's thoughts.
Lord Zi Ningjun seemed to be deep in thought, but the worry in her eyes couldn't disappear.
"You don't need to worry."
Shen Zhenyi calmly shook his head and pulled them away.
The Heaven Potian Sect members stood around Fu Potian in shock. They looked at their backs and felt even more baffled.
"This Third Young Master Shen … is really … an extraordinary person!"
After thinking about it, they didn't know what to say about this young master of the Abandoned Sword Villa. Perhaps this realm was a height that they would never be able to understand in their lifetime.
It was lonely at the top.
The Heaven Potian Sect members shuddered. They began to clean up the corpses and protect their leader again.
The only one who could go against Third Young Master Shen was their Daoist Master. As long as the Daoist Master could come out of seclusion and kill Shen Zhenyi, then no matter how mysterious the other party was, it would have nothing to do with them!
We, the common people, shouldn't think too much about the thoughts of experts. It'll only give us a headache!
The commotion at the entrance of the Abandoned Sword Villa returned to silence.
The surrounding people who were alarmed came to check, but they didn't see anything. Only thick darkness covered everything.
Time flew by like a white steed.
The moon rose and set, and the sun rose from the east and the sun rose from the west.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
This was already the third day. According to the Third Young Master Shen's prophecy, Fu Potian would come out of seclusion!
