If he didn't sense that the Old Monster was fine, Ning Fan would have used his sword sense to kill these cultivators one by one!
He had cultivated for two years and rarely got angry … but this didn't mean that he didn't have a reverse scale.
Seven Apricot City was his reverse scale!
Si Fan Palace. Before the grave diggers could recover from the shocking voice, they saw a black light flickering in the sky. In front of each of them, under the snow apricot flowers, a young man appeared out of thin air.
This young man had a cold expression. There was a star on his glabella and sword qi was soaring in his eyes.
In front of this young man, each of the cultivators felt that they weren't facing a person, but a sword! A devil sword that swept through the ages, killed gods and buddhas, and had an invincible baleful aura!
This was Ning Fan in the eyes of ordinary cultivators!
Among this group of Harmonious Spirit cultivators, the higher their cultivation, the deeper their perception of the young man's sword qi. Each of these cultivators was wearing a silver sword robe. Each of them carried four flying swords on their back. On their silver robes, there was a sword mark embroidered on them.
Behind the grave diggers stood a young man with a pale face. He seemed to be around twenty-five or twenty-six years old and was a late Harmonious Spirit cultivator. To have such a cultivation in his twenties, his aptitude was extremely monstrous. This person was obviously the leader of this group of cultivators. The flying swords on his back weren't just four, but six.
Sensing Ning Fan's terrifying Qi, the pale young man frowned slightly, but he didn't panic. He separated the crowd and walked to the front, clasped his fists, and said with a hint of arrogance.
This friend, we, the Sword Guards of the Sword World, are here for private matters. Those who have nothing to do with this, please leave quickly and don't get involved.
Sword World?
Ning Fan's eyes slightly narrowed. He seemed to recall that the Old Monster and the Sword World did have some grudges. This old man's dao companion seemed to be the beloved daughter of a great figure in the Sword World. And this little Dugu who was buried here also seemed to have the same identity.
Could it be that the grave diggers were the relatives of little Dugu?
Otherwise, if they didn't have a great background, how could they enter the Rain Immortal World? One should know that the Immortal Worlds had strict control over each other. They wouldn't easily allow cultivators from other worlds to enter their own worlds. If this group of cultivators had a great background in the Sword World, then they would be allowed to enter the Rain Immortal World. The reason why these cultivators were only at the Harmonious Spirit realm was probably because they were following the arrangements of the Rain Immortal World and did not dare to send any experts to this world.
If that was the case, Ning Fan could understand why the Old Monster didn't stop these people from entering Si Fan Palace and wasn't angry at them. With the Old Monster's personality, even if he lost all of his cultivation base, he wouldn't allow anyone to enter Si Fan Palace, the place where he once lived with his dao companion.
Seeing that Ning Fan remained silent after hearing the name of the Sword World, the fair-skinned young man seemed to be quite proud of himself.
So what if he was a Nascent Soul cultivator? In a barren land like the State of Yue, one could be the patriarch of a country. However, in the Sword World, in the family of this fair-skinned young man, a Nascent Soul cultivator was just average.
"Since you know that the Sword Realm is doing something here, why aren't you retreating quickly?!" The fair-skinned young man seemed to have found the right to be arrogant. However, what he got in return was Ning Fan's cold eyes.
"Hmph! So what if it's the Sword Realm!"
As Ning Fan's eyes turned serious, his sword sense swept across the place silently. A trace of deadly crisis suddenly rose in the hearts of dozens of sword cultivators including the fair-skinned young man!
In an instant, the fair-skinned young man withdrew all of his complacency, leaving only fear and disbelief on his face!
"Sword … Sword Consciousness … Sword Sense … You … You …"
He couldn't help but be shocked. A Nascent Soul cultivator might not be a big deal in the Sword World, but a sword cultivator who possessed sword consciousness and sword sense was as rare as a phoenix feather and a unicorn horn in the Sword World. Each of them was a Void Fragmentation Sword Emperor!
A Void Fragmentation sword cultivator was not enough to be called a Sword Emperor! Ghost Emperor, Demon Emperor, Sword Emperor … Anyone who had the word 'Emperor' in their name was an invincible existence!
As for the Sword World, it became the strongest Immortal World below the Devil World, Demon World and Heaven Immortal World. Each of the Sword Emperor old ancestors could kill countless low level cultivators with a single thought!
The fair-skinned young man couldn't believe that Ning Fan in front of him was a genius sword cultivator who had the potential to become a Sword Emperor!
Moreover, the sword Qi in Ning Fan's sword sense was extremely weak, but it was overbearing enough to kill all cultivators below the early Gold Core realm!
What made the fair-skinned young man even more incredulous was that Ning Fan still dared to kill them despite knowing that they had a great background in the Sword World. Ning Fan didn't hesitate to offend a Sword Emperor old ancestor of the Sword World to kill them!
He's a madman!
Just as Ning Fan was about to kill them, a voice came from the grave and outside the courtyard.
"Ning Fan, don't kill them!"
"Fan Er, stop!"
After the two voices, the soul of a beautiful woman flew out from the grave and stood under the plum tree. Outside the courtyard, a black-robed old man staggered into the courtyard.
The woman wore a white robe. Her shoulders were smooth and slender. Her black hair was like a waterfall. Her waist was slender and there was a plum blossom on her temple. She stood in the bleak wind and snow, looking noble and lonely like a plum blossom. Her eyes were sorrowful, but there was a trace of sad sword intent. Now that Ning Fan had comprehended the Divine Rain Intent, he vaguely noticed that the sharp sword intent in her eyes was as special as the Divine Intent. Perhaps, this was the intent that a Spirit Severing sword cultivator must comprehend in the Sword World.
Could Little Dugu be a Spirit Severing cultivator when she was alive?
Looking at the Old Monster again, he was still wearing a black robe, but his insolent eyes had turned into silence. His black hair had turned white. It seemed like he hadn't lived a peaceful life in the past two years.
This made Ning Fan feel a little sad. He sighed softly and his hostility towards Moksha Emperor deepened.
If it wasn't for Moksha Emperor, the Old Monster might still be a True Immortal and still be free and unfettered in the Four Heavens Immortal World. If it wasn't for Moksha Emperor, the Old Monster might have already recovered his cultivation and roamed freely in the Rain World.
Two years had passed, but Seven Apricot City seemed to have changed.
While Ning Fan was observing Little Dugu and the Old Monster, the two of them were also observing Ning Fan.
Little Dugu's eyes revealed a trace of imperceptible joy when Ning Fan returned. When she sensed Ning Fan's Nascent Soul Qi, sword sense and sword consciousness, she couldn't help but be surprised for a long time. Especially the sword qi in Ning Fan's sword sense. She didn't know where it came from, but it made Little Dugu, who had comprehended the sword intent, feel a trace of fear.
Sword intent. Ordinary cultivators could also comprehend the sword intent, but it was only the surface of the sword qi. It wasn't the true sword intent. Only Spirit Severing cultivators could comprehend the true sword intent. Little Dugu had comprehended her own sword intent before the Spirit Severing realm. In the past, she was known as one of the Three Heroes of the Sword World.
But even she didn't have the sword consciousness and sword sense like when she was in the Nascent Soul realm. For the first time, Little Dugu realized that she couldn't see through Ning Fan. It wasn't only his personality, but also his cultivation. It was as if everything was shrouded in mist.
In less than two years, he had become an expert of his generation.
Little Dugu's sigh deepened. He had such a good aptitude, but why did he choose to cultivate the devil path? Her clan was one of the three royal clans of the Sword World. Her father, the emperor, hated devil cultivators the most. The Old Devil and her elder sister were a tragedy. If Ning Fan wasn't a devil cultivator, how good would it be?
Her mind was filled with wild thoughts. After thinking about many things, she finally remembered one thing!
"Not good! This Little Demon Ning once said that if he breaks through to the Nascent Soul Realm, he will come back and take away my third sword Qi … If it was any other time, he would just take it away. But now, if he takes away this sword Qi in front of the people of the Sword World, he will surely cause a great disaster! "
Compared to marrying Little Devil Ning, Little Dugu was more worried about Little Devil Ning's safety.
The Old Devil was also sizing Ning Fan up. For the first time, his silent expression revealed a gratified expression.
"Stinking brat, your incarnation is quite incredible. I was quite worried when I heard that you were going to the Endless Sea, but I'm relieved to see that you have such strength. This way, I will be able to walk a safer path."
There was a hidden meaning in the Old Devil's words, and Ning Fan immediately understood it.
"Where do you want to go?! Your current cultivation base … "At this point, he stopped talking and glanced at the people of the Sword World. Some words couldn't be said in front of these people.
"Han Yuanji will naturally follow us back to the Sword World! My emperor has already heard about the matter of Moksha Emperor. This time, he came to bring the two ladies back. Of course, if Han Yuanji is thick-skinned and follows us back, my emperor will protect him for the sake of the two ladies. With my emperor's presence, even Moksha Emperor won't dare to do anything to Han Yuanji. "
With the Old Devil's support, the fair-skinned youth was sure that Ning Fan wouldn't dare to kill him, so he revealed his arrogant face again.
After listening to the fair-skinned youth's words, Ning Fan didn't argue with him. Instead, he closed his eyes.
With the Old Devil's character, he certainly wouldn't lower his face to beg others. If he didn't want to leave, a mere Harmonious Spirit cultivator wouldn't be able to stop him.
Was he really afraid of Moksha Emperor? Afraid that Moksha Emperor would take his life after a hundred years?
If he was afraid, he wouldn't have stayed in the Rain World in the past. He would have had countless opportunities to lower his head to the three emperors of the Sword World.
Perhaps the reason why he went back now was because he was worried about me.
If the Old Devil went to the Sword World, Moksha Emperor wouldn't come to the Rain World to seek revenge after a hundred years. Perhaps he would come to the Sword World.
The Old Devil was protecting me.
"Why do you have to be like this?" Ning Fan opened his eyes and couldn't bear it.
"Haha, I'm not suffering. But you brat, you are always thinking about the hundred years of Void Fragmentation in your heart. This isn't good. Cultivators need perseverance and a little persistence to not lose themselves in the sea of blood. However, if that persistence becomes obsession and the obsession turns into a heart devil, a thousand years of Void Fragmentation won't be a problem with your aptitude. Don't give yourself too much pressure. That might destroy you." The Old Devil laughed and patted Ning Fan's shoulder solemnly for the first time.
"Are you afraid that I won't be a match for Moksha Emperor after a hundred years?"
"That's right. I'm afraid. I'm not afraid of death. I'm afraid of something else. You are my only hope to save her. I can die, but you can't! I accepted you as my disciple with ulterior motives. Do you know that you can hate me? "
"Given your personality, I would be surprised if you accepted me as your disciple without any ulterior motives. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't be who I am today. Perhaps I would have escaped from the All Pleasure Sect that day and died in a remote place without anyone knowing. No matter what the reason was for you to accept me as your disciple, this kindness has been planted. If you have any requests, I won't refuse." Ning Fan said solemnly.
This pair of master and disciple didn't have much affection for each other. The reason why they were fated was because of benefits. The Old Devil accepted him as his disciple because he hoped to save someone. Ning Fan accepted him as his master because he was forced by death.
But later on, the two of them gradually realized that their personalities were very compatible with each other. Gradually, the relationship between master and disciple began to accumulate.
It was the Old Devil who gave Ning Fan the goal to cultivate the Evil Dao.
And Ning Fan gave the Old Devil the hope to save his lover.
Ning Fan didn't ask the Old Devil what he wanted to do. He wouldn't refuse. He could see that this matter was extremely important to the Old Devil. It must be related to the girl he admired.
"I want to go to the Sword World. I won't die! You don't need to put so much pressure on yourself. A hundred years later, the ruins of the Ancient Heavenly Court will open. Don't compete with Moksha Emperor. You just need to blend in and obtain the fortune. With your wisdom and means, even if you can't defeat Moksha Emperor, you can still protect yourself. As for my request, I can tell you some of it now. I guess you have already guessed it. I need you to save someone. It's that simple. Do you agree or not?! "
"Do I have a reason to refuse?" Ning Fan smiled faintly. The Old Devil also laughed.
On the side, the fair-skinned youth's face was full of pride. However, he was ignored by the two of them. This made his self-esteem suffer greatly.
He didn't dare to do anything to Ning Fan. Then, he would teach the Old Devil a lesson on the way back to the Sword World!
"Come! Second Miss, please return to the Sword World. Eldest Miss, please return to the Sword World! As for the 'Bluestone Sword Qi', Second Miss and the Sword Emperor had an agreement. If someone could take away three of the sword qi, Second Miss would not marry the grandson of the Divine Emperor. She would marry the person who took the sword. Now, there is only one sword qi left. Second Miss has lost the bet. "
Before the fair-skinned youth came, he was warned repeatedly. It seemed that the Imperial Ancestor attached great importance to Little Dugu's vow.
After hearing this, Little Dugu's face turned pale and revealed a look of extreme disgust. "Even if I lost the bet, I still won't marry that person."
"Hehe, this subordinate can't make the decision. Come, erase the Bluestone Sword Qi! This is the Secret Sword of the Sword Emperor. It must not be leaked! "
Under the command of the fair-skinned youth, a few Harmonious Spirit men immediately went to smash the bluestone and destroy the sword qi.
The Secret Sword of the Sword Emperor was extremely special. Outsiders would never be able to comprehend its profundity. Only by obtaining a trace of sword qi and using it to comprehend it could one have the chance to comprehend the sword qi.
In the past, Little Dugu had an agreement with the Sword Emperor. That was why she was bestowed with three sword qi. However, she lived in the Si Fan Palace and didn't allow outsiders to enter or touch the sword qi. Naturally, no one could take away the sword qi. However, Ning Fan had taken away two sword qi in a row, almost completing the vow.
If Ning Fan took away the three sword qi, Little Dugu would have no choice but to marry Ning Fan. She had made a Great Heart Devil Oath. Otherwise, how could the dignified Sword Emperor allow Little Dugu to leave the Sword World so easily, even if Little Dugu was the daughter of another Sword Emperor!
Seeing that the bluestone was about to shatter and the vow dissipated, Little Dugu heaved a sigh of relief despite her reluctance.
She could learn the Secret Sword of the Sword Emperor because it was bestowed by the Sword Emperor. If outsiders were to cultivate it and the Sword World knew about it, they would be erased.
Ning Fan must not take away the sword qi in front of the people of the Sword World. Otherwise, he would provoke the Sword Emperor of the Sword World before settling the matter with Moksha Emperor.
While she was filled with worries, the Old Monster sneered at her side.
"Brat, what do you think about the power of the sword qi on this bluestone?"
"This sword contains a trace of divine intent. Although it is a Nascent Soul sword qi, no early Nascent Soul cultivator would be able to resist it. Even an intermediate Nascent Soul cultivator would find it hard to resist it. If my cultivation base reaches Nascent Soul, I would be invincible below intermediate Nascent Soul realm with this sword qi. "
"Then why aren't you going to take it? This is a good thing! "
"That's right! I came back to Seven Apricot City with the intention of taking this sword! "
Ning Fan's eyes swept across the Old Monster, Little Dugu and the cultivators of the Sword World. From the words of the fair-skinned youth, he could vaguely guess that this sword qi was very important. That was why he didn't take it immediately.
But at this moment, the Old Monster said that he was going to take it. He could hear that the Old Monster wanted him to take the sword qi, even if it might offend a great figure of the Sword World.
However, taking away this sword qi would obviously make the Old Monster happy. It would also help Little Dugu greatly.
"This sword qi belongs to me!" He flicked his sleeve, dispersing a few Harmonious Spirit cultivators. He patted his storage pouch and took out an empty sword scabbard. He then kept the third sword qi in the bluestone!
This was the Nascent Soul sword qi, Heart Drawing Sword!
The moment he took away the sword qi, the fair-skinned youth's expression changed drastically and roared in anger.
"You, you … you dare to take away this sword qi! Aren't you afraid of offending the 70 million sword cultivators of the Sword World?! "
"No, I won't go to the Sword World." Ning Fan smiled faintly, but his eyes turned cold and added.
"If I go to the Sword World, no one will dare to touch me, not even the Godly King of the Sword World! Why should I be afraid?! "
The fair-skinned youth took a few steps back. Under Ning Fan's killing intent, his face turned pale and he didn't dare to speak anymore!
He would have to bear a great sin if he lost the sword qi.
But if he offended Ning Fan, he would die on the spot!
Ning Fan was a madman. He knew that taking away the sword qi would offend a ruthless person, but he still took it.
Perhaps this time, the fair-skinned youth would barely complete the task of the Little Dugu Clan after returning to the Sword World, but it would still be hard to complete the task of the Sword Palace.
What to do, what to do …
...
When the fair-skinned youth's expression changed dramatically, Little Dugu was stomping her feet in anger and shame.
That hateful Old Monster! He clearly knew what oath this sword qi represented, but he still encouraged Ning Fan to take it!
And that hateful Little Monster Ning actually took it away. Doesn't that mean, doesn't that mean
"Oh right, what is the special meaning of taking away this sword qi?" Ning Fan asked after realizing it.
"There is no special meaning. But, she is yours." The Old Monster pointed at Little Dugu with an extremely carefree expression.
"Uh, wait a minute. This joke isn't funny."
Ning Fan was confused, just like the Old Monster that day.
