Under the shocked gazes of the crowd, Liu Shisui came to the field.
He lowered his head, and his weedy hair covered his eyes, looking like a criminal.
"What are you doing here?"
Elder Bai Rujing scolded him sternly, his expression terrible.
As an elder in the Broken Sea State of Tianguang Peak, he had taught a wicked disciple who ate the Devil Pill; it was the most humiliating thing he had ever experienced in his life.
Liu Shisui said hoarsely without raising his head, "This disciple wants to take part in the Sword Trial."
The expression on Bai Rujing's face grew even colder, as he yelled, "What qualification do you have to take part in the Sword Trial? Get out of here right now! "
"Master … I'm also a disciple of Aoyama; why can't I take part in the Sword Trial?"
Liu Shisui's head was still lowered, and his voice was still as hoarse.
Seeing his current appearance and hearing his voice, many disciples felt sympathetic for him.
The female disciples on Qingrong Peak felt even more sentimental.
Jian Ruoshan said to Liu Shisui with a sneer, "You ate the Devil Pill secretly back then, which caused my elder brother to be imprisoned, and you have committed other serious crimes. If the masters hadn't found the evidence, your Cultivation would have been abolished and you would have been expelled from the mountain gate a long time ago. But you still have the nerve to come out and ask why!"
Liu Shisui didn't respond to him, waiting for Bai Rujing's answer.
Jian Rushan suddenly laughed and said mockingly, "Since you want to take part in the Sword Trial, and I happen to be here, why don't we have a match?"
Having said that, he called out his flying sword.
It was a flying sword made of black gold, about two and a half feet long, making a buzzing sound and vibrating at a speed that couldn't be seen clearly by the naked eye.
Liu Shisui suddenly waved his hand.
His shabby sleeve created a series of residual shadows.
A violent wind sprang up.
A few green lights shot out from his sleeve, heading toward Jian Rushan.
A crisp sword chime could be heard.
The black gold sword flew away diagonally.
Pah! Pah! Pah!
Pah! Pah! Pah! Jian Rushan was knocked back one hundred feet and hit the cliff wall, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood, unable to stand up again.
A few visible cracks appeared on his body.
"The Sword Force!"
"The Separation Sword!"
There was a burst of surprised screams.
Some of the teachers stood up in shock.
Even an important figure like the Peak Master of Qingrong had a grave expression on his face.
Be it the Astral Sword or the Parting Sword, they were both extremely difficult to cultivate because there was a prerequisite.
Yes, Liu Shisui's Tempered Body of Sword Intent wasn't at the beginner level, but it had already reached the mastery level.
Nobody came to the quiet stone house on Tianguang Peak to explore, and there weren't as many swift and fierce sword wills as on Yunxing Peak.
But in his heart, there was a wildfire called unwillingness.
That wildfire burned for two whole years, making him unable to sleep at night.
"How dare you launch a sneak attack!"
Bai Rujing was furious to the extreme, and he shouted, "I'll cripple you today!"
A melodramatic drama of master and disciple killing each other was about to unfold, but someone stopped it.
"Elder Bai, please wait."
Chi Yan said expressionlessly, "I saw it very clearly. It was Jian Rushan who challenged him, and it was Jian Rushan who attacked first. How could you say that Liu Shisui launched a sneak attack?"
According to the rules of the Sword Trial in Aoyama, once either side summoned their flying swords, it meant that the competition could begin.
Chi Yan was an elder of Shangde Peak, so his explanation of the sect rules couldn't be wrong.
But the question was, why did he speak up for Liu Shisui?
It took the disciples a while to figure it out. It must have something to do with the dispute between the two peaks.
The people of Shanghai Peak should be the happiest when Tianguang Peak had such a sinful disciple as Liu Shisui.
In Aoyama, the relationship between Tianguang Peak and Shanghai Peak had always been complicated.
Everyone knew the reason, but no one dared to say it.
The peak heads and elders on the stone platform all remained silent, and the disciples didn't dare to make a sound.
"You're right. As long as you're not expelled from the mountain gate, you're a disciple of Aoyama, and you're qualified to participate in the Sword Trial."
Chi Yan looked at Liu Shisui and said expressionlessly, "But you should know that the drawing of lots has been over for a long time."
Liu Shisui said with his head lowered, "I'd like to name a name."
Since Jian Ruoshan could name a person, so could he.
After a moment of silence, Chi Yan asked, "Who do you want to name?"
Liu Shisui lifted his head and looked at a spot in the cliff.
His eyes were bright, which couldn't be concealed by his messy hair that looked like weeds.
"Jian Ruoyun … Big Brother."
An uproar broke out again.
The disciples around the Stone Forest were stunned.
Two years ago, it was because Liu Shisui ate the Devil Pill secretly and fell into a coma that Jian Ruoyun was implicated and locked up in the Stone Room for half a year. Now, Liu Shisui didn't think about his own mistakes and wanted to challenge Jian Ruoyun. It was ridiculous. Did he think it was Jian Ruoyun's fault that he had ended up like this?
…
…
As the sword light flickered, Jian Ruoyun came to the scene. He looked at Liu Shisui and said sentimentally, "Young Brother Liu, why did you do this? Do you think it's my fault? It's true that I underestimated you and let you make a big mistake; but … it was you who made the mistake. "
Liu Shisui snapped angrily, "Did I? Was I really the one who made the mistake? "
The expression on Jian Ruoyun's face changed slightly.
Liu Shisui stared into his eyes and said, "You know what had happened the best; but you've never told me that it was obviously …"
"It's useless to say more. Now that you think it's my fault, come at me. But I have to tell you that you're no match for me even if you ate the Devil Pill."
Jian Ruoyun suddenly interrupted him. For some reason, his face was a bit pale.
After a moment of silence, Liu Shisui said, "Yeah, I've said this many times in the last two years, but nobody believes me. So, there's no point in saying it again."
Having said that, he stepped onto his sword and landed on a stone pillar in the west without saying anything.
Jian Ruoyun raised his eyebrows slightly, but didn't say anything. He rode his sword and landed on a stone pillar in the east.
The distance between the two stone pillars was more than one thousand feet.
Jian Ruoyun ranked fourth on Liangwang Peak, and his sword work was profound. It was said that he had made a breakthrough in the upper state of the Undefeated after being confined in the stone room for half a year.
If he had a few more years, he might have reached the threshold of the Free Travel State.
Who among the disciples of the third generation could be his match except for Guo Nanshan and Zhuo Rusui, who was still behind closed doors on Tianguang Peak?
It was deathly quiet around the stone forest.
Nobody thought that Liu Shisui had any chance, even though he had accomplished the Tempered Will of the Sword and formed the Chaotic Sword on his own.
In the next moment, the silence was broken. Surprised cries could be heard everywhere in the peaks, especially on the stone platforms where the masters of the nine peaks stood.
It was because Liu Shisui had drawn his sword.
It wasn't because his sword was terrifying; on the contrary, it was very quiet.
It was strange to use the word "quiet" to describe a flying sword.
Liu Shisui's sword flew forward.
It was very slow.
It seemed to be carrying a lot of weight.
It was as heavy as the sky.
…
…
The expression on Bai Rujing's face changed slightly.
It was he who taught it to Liu Shisui.
The problem was that he had taught Liu Shisui for only half a year, but he didn't expect Liu Shisui to have mastered the essence of the Inherited Heaven Sword Style.
