"From now on, we will be a family. I don't know about other places, but if anyone dares to bully you in Yuheng Shenjiang, I will definitely back you up. Come, call me big sister again." The woman's smile was extremely bright.
Although she often had a smile on her face, this time her smile looked especially sincere, as if it came from the bottom of her heart.
Zhu Minglang scratched his head.
He had never thought that he would have another elder sister.
However, since they were related by blood, he had to acknowledge her.
"Big sister." Zhu Minglang stood up and bowed solemnly.
"When you were fighting with the disciples of the Star Palace, did you learn the sword technique from your mother?" the woman asked.
"No."
"Oh, no wonder..." the woman pondered for a moment.
"Is there something wrong?" Zhu Minglang asked in confusion.
"There's nothing wrong. It's normal that your mother didn't teach you sword techniques, because the jade sword technique is suitable for women. If you had learned our jade sword technique from a young age, you would have become like Linghu Shen... Linghu Shen is the one who brought you here. He's neither a man nor a woman. He's not cute at all. Yes, yes, he's not as cute as you," the woman said.
Cute...
Zhu Minglang had heard all kinds of beautiful words to describe his outstanding beauty, but he had never heard the word 'cute'. For a moment, he was so embarrassed that he didn't know how to respond.
"You don't have any cultivation, but you're proficient in sword techniques. Can you tell me why?" the woman continued.
"I'm actually a dragon master," Zhu Minglang said and summoned Stegosaurus.
Stegosaurus floated in front of the woman, as if it was sizing her up curiously.
"I see." The woman nodded. She continued, "Your flying sword technique is similar to the flying sword technique of Alioth. Even though you're a dragon master, you can still perform sword techniques, right?"
"Yes, I learned some Yuheng sword techniques from Linghu Ling, but I only learned a few moves. I came to Alioth this time to improve my sword techniques. The moves I learned in the past are no longer suitable for battles at this level," Zhu Minglang said.
"You have a good foundation. I'm curious, who taught you sword techniques?" the woman asked.
"Well..."
"It doesn't matter if you can't tell me. Your mother was right not to teach you sword techniques. Your teacher's realm is higher. She has laid a good foundation for you, "the woman said.
"Actually, I'm also confused about my teacher's identity," Zhu Minglang said.
"The key to learning sword techniques isn't about sword techniques or factions, it's about the realm. Once your realm is high enough, you can learn the sword techniques of any faction, no matter how complicated they are. You've obviously reached this realm. Alioth's Heaven-level sword techniques won't be a problem for you, "the woman said.
"I've only used a few moves, and you can already tell?" Zhu Minglang was surprised.
"Of course, you can tell the difference between your realm when you raise your hand. The realm you've learned is called the Sharpening Realm. The sword needs to be sharpened, sharpened until it's as cold as ice, as domineering as lightning, and as brilliant as the sun. It's the same for the heart of the sword. It needs to be firm and unyielding, to be insufferably arrogant, and to be the ruler of all Daos. Once you reach the next realm, you'll be able to look down on all deities and mortals! "the woman said.
Zhu Minglang listened carefully.
The woman obviously knew the realm he had learned. She had basically revealed the true meaning of the realm with just a few words.
Sharpening the sword was also sharpening the heart!
Zhu Minglang understood the feeling very well.
"But you seem to have given up on Swordsman," the woman said.
"..." Zhu Minglang also knew what he had missed, but he did not regret it.
Furthermore, Zhu Minglang was not considered to have given up on swordsmanship. This was because he could clearly feel that he was climbing towards a higher level of swordsmanship. He had already passed the stage of constant practice. What was more important now was to sharpen his heart.
"I know who your teacher is," the woman said.
"Maybe I only know her name and nothing else," Zhu Minglang said.
"Her name might also be fake. She guards the Dragon Gate. Naturally, she needs a more low-key identity," the woman said.
"Guards the Dragon Gate??" Zhu Minglang was stunned.
"Ah, you don't know??" The woman exclaimed. Then, she hurriedly covered her mouth with her hand, like a reckless girl who had let it slip.
Zhu Minglang felt as if he had been electrocuted.
The Dragon Gate …
The Dragon Gate appeared in Li Chuan.
And back then, Zhu Xuehen was the keeper of order in Li Chuan!
She was the first person to enter Li Chuan!
And not long after that, the Dragon Gate was born in the sky above Li Chuan!
Because of the Li Nan sisters' special divinity, Zhu Minglang had always felt that the appearance of the Dragon Gate had something to do with them.
However, he had neglected such an important matter!
Zhu Xuehen was the one who opened the Door of God of the Dragon Gate!
Zhu Minglang's head buzzed. He felt that the amount of information was too much for him to digest in a short period of time.
In that case, his aunt and teacher, Zhu Xuehen, and his mother, Meng Bingci, were not mortals. Only he and his father were proper mortal cultivators?
"How was the Dragon Gate born?" Zhu Minglang asked.
"I don't know. I wasn't chosen by the heavens to be the guardian of the Dragon Gate. But according to legend, the guardians of the Dragon Gate travel the world. They change their identities every ten years. They also do their best to protect themselves because they have the secrets of the heavens that the gods covet. The righteous gods are chosen by the Dragon Gate. So, the guardian of the Dragon Gate is the person closest to the heavens. All the gods hope to be favored by the heavens, or they want to become the guardian of the Dragon Gate," the woman said with a smile.
Zhu Minglang recalled that when he fell from the Dragon Gate to the grassland of Li Chuan, he saw the figure of a woman on the Dragon Gate shrouded in moonlight. She was like a fairy from the Moon Palace, graceful and hazy.
Could it be …
Zhu Xuehen was standing on the Dragon Gate, staring at him??
"Could it be … Bing Ci challenged your teacher and was demoted to a mortal after she lost?" the woman mumbled to herself.
"She's not much better off. She's also been demoted to a mortal." At this moment, a cold and arrogant voice came from behind.
Zhu Minglang was very familiar with the voice. He knew it was his mother, whom he had not seen many times since he was young, without even turning around.
"I see. Both of you suffered great losses and fell to the Extreme Court. One of you started cultivating again, got married, and had a child. The other cultivated alone and became an immortal again … but why did she accept you as her disciple? "the woman asked in confusion.
Zhu Minglang got up and saw that Meng Bingci was still as cold as ice as she walked over. She had not changed at all from the past and time had not left any traces on her beautiful face.
