The Ocean of Qi and Snow Mountain didn't open up in the end. As Lü Shu brought Lü Xiaoyu home, he told Li Xianyi that the basis of trust between people had basically disappeared.
He hated it when people talked to him with questions, not even questions or rhetorical questions!
It was evident that Li Xianyi intended to appease Lü Shu with the title of the number one swordsman of all times, but it was evident that Lü Shu didn't buy it …
Nevertheless, Lü Shu wasn't a person who gave up easily. He had a tenacity in his bones, which was a treasure given to him by his hard life.
It was said that one should be grateful for the hardships he had gone through during a period of time, because it was these hardships that helped him grow up.
Lü Shu thought this statement was a bit nonsensical. What one should be grateful for the most was not the hardships, but for himself, who had gone through the hardships. It was his own willpower that made him more tenacious and mature.
Hardships were hardships, and it was a gain to go through them. If one couldn't, one would be knocked down. Some people might not be able to stand up again for the rest of their lives.
If one could go through the hardships, he should thank himself; if not, he shouldn't blame others. It was his own choice.
Lü Shu thought that he had other swords even though he didn't have the Sword's Resolve right now.
He was different from Li Xianyi in that he had taken more than one path.
Could the Dead Dog and Fushi be sharpened on the snow mountain? He wouldn't know until he tried.
On the same night, Lü Shu sat on the bed with his legs crossed and tried to sharpen the snow mountain with the Dead Dog and Fushi. The two small swords flew out of the star map and headed toward the snow mountain after being moved by Lü Shu's will.
To Lü Shu's surprise, he found that his idea was feasible. It was because the Dead Dog and Fushi were like spirits in his body, so they could enter the range of the Ocean of Qi and Snow Mountain directly.
He tried to sharpen the Dead Dog on the snow mountain, which was a huge whetstone.
Lü Shu suddenly found that a dim glow would pass through the Dead Dog's body every time he sharpened it, and the Dead Dog seemed to be cheering excitedly.
Moreover, the Dead Dog left a long mark on the snow mountain easily.
Feasible!
Though Lü Shu didn't know if what Li Xianyi said was right or not, and whether it was beneficial to the Dead Dog, the problem was that Lü Shu agreed with half of Li Xianyi's idea: Since the Snowy Mountain had suppressed the Ocean of Qi, it was better to destroy the Snowy Mountain and rebuild the Ocean of Qi.
Lü Shu had this kind of ruthlessness. If it was destroyed, then so be it. The snow mountain could be cultivated again sooner or later.
Li Xianyi did not tell him how to destroy the snow mountain, because Li Xianyi was not sure if this method was correct. He needed to think about it again.
Since Li Xian refused to say, Lü Shu would have to figure it out himself.
Now that the Dead Dog and the Crouching Arrow could be tempered, and they could exert influence on the snowy mountain, it was better to temper them. Lü Shu believed that a new change would occur sooner or later. Though the snowy mountain was large, it would be destroyed by the Dead Dog and Fu Shi sooner or later.
Lü Shu manipulated the Dead Dog and Fu Shi to grind the stone from the bottom, like sawing a tree …
…
The next morning, Lü Shu resumed his normal sword practice. Though the Cultivation of the Ocean of Qi and the Snow Mountain had stagnated, Lü Shu did not think he should completely stop his sword work, except that he did not eat the Fruits of the Ocean of Qi.
It was because he had personally experienced the benefits of having a high degree of control over his body during the actual combat. He was able to exert all his strength at the same time, which was what it meant to be a true "confidant". As for "knowing the enemy", it would depend on the preparation work in the future …
Seeing Lü Shu still practicing the most basic sword work step by step even though he had the Ocean of Qi and the Snow Mountain, Li Xianyi sighed emotionally, "His success is not accidental."
Aunt Liu asked behind him, "Do you have to leave in such a hurry?"
"Hmm." Li Xianyi nodded, "In the great era of the revival of spiritual energy, the foundation will gradually lose its right to speak if it doesn't have a top-level swordsman, which is what we don't want to see. The strength of all the countries is increasing. If the foundation does not make any progress, it will eventually be eliminated. Sometimes, it is not a matter of whether we want to fight for the relics and resources, but we have to fight for them, because this is the case in this era. I have been absent from the world stage for too long. "
"Alright." Aunt Liu nodded, "Today … I'll make another meal for Xiaoyu."
"Hmm, I'll give Xiaoyu one last lesson," Li Xianyi said slowly as he looked at Lü Shu, who was practicing swordsmanship outside the window.
…
When Lü Shu and Lü Xiaoyu heard that the old man was going to give one last lesson, they knew that Li Xianyi would return to his original track after advancing to Grade-A.
Originally, he had returned to his homeland to recuperate because his foundation had deteriorated. Now that his foundation had recovered and his strength had improved greatly, he would definitely have a new goal.
It would be a lie to say that he was not sad. Lü Xiaoyu carried his small backpack and went to class, while Lü Shu leaned against the fence and watched.
Li Xianyi was also a little sad. At one point, he even thought that if he did not recover his foundation, it would not be bad to keep these two children company.
However, the next moment, Lü Xiaoyu took out a Grade One mathematics textbook from his small backpack. "What's the content of today's lesson?"
Li Xianyi silently put away his Grade Two mathematics textbook on the table …
"Negative emotion points from Li Xianyi, + 399!"
Was he crazy? Why did he have to give this last lesson?! Also, Lü Xiaoyu, aren't you only in Grade Two? Why did you self-study all the way to Grade One?!
"Ahem, I won't talk about the content of the last lesson. Lü Shu, come and sit down …" Li Xianyi said calmly.
Lü Shu curiously sat down. Li Xianyi, Lü Shu, and Lü Xiaoyu sat at the stone table in the courtyard. The sky was clear and the cicadas were chirping.
Li Xianyi asked, "What plans do you have for the future?"
"School," Lü Shu said.
"What about after graduation?"
"I haven't thought about it." Lü Shu shook his head. He really had not thought about it carefully.
"I think you should think about this problem." The reason Li Xianyi said this was because the siblings were now Grade C and Grade D respectively. They were not too weak cultivators, and they were still very young.
The speed of change in the future was beyond people's imagination. Just over a year ago, Li Xianyi himself was skeptical about the recovery of the spirit energy tide, thinking that it was just a phenomenon of spirit energy returning by chance. Now, however, it had become a reality.
The domestic cultivators did not cause too much trouble under the constraints of Tengra's Earth Net, but many foreign cultivators and Awakened ones had slowly begun to step onto the world stage.
This world would not remain peaceful forever.
Lü Shu nodded after hearing this. "I understand. I will think about the future. Are you leaving?"
Li Xianyi suddenly became a little distracted. "You keep asking me what the ideals of the foundation are …"
"I didn't keep asking," Lü Shu said.
"Negative emotion points from Li Xianyi, + 199!"
"Please continue, please continue …" Lü Shu saw the negative emotion points and quickly added.
Li Xianyi: "… What did I want to say?"
His f * cking emotions were not coherent anymore!
