When Đồng Thái arrived with his sword, he saw the young king sitting alone at the top of the broken stone steps with a knife on his knees.
Although Xu Fengnian's clothes were stained with blood and his face was full of exhaustion, he was full of spirit. Moreover, his heavenly physique that had suffered heavy injuries in succession was like a withered tree that had come back to life. It glowed with vitality and gradually approached its peak.
Deng Taia floated down to the ground. Hanging from his waist was an ordinary iron sword that his disciple had given him. Holding Taia upside down, he stood beside Xu Fengnian. "Eight hundred years of scholarly spirit, scattered in the world?"
Xu Fengnian nodded and said, "Old Mister was obviously reluctant to leave before he passed away. He stayed up for a few hours and made some arrangements before he passed away on the spot."
Đồng Thái frowned and said, "What about this fight?"
Hsu Fengnian smiled bitterly and said, "The old man who was the backbone of the Central Plains should be more trusting of Li Yufu who had a pure Taoist heart. When Master Li escorted the Dragon Carp along the Guangling River to the sea, the old man must have secretly observed and trusted him. As for me, he did not have much confidence. Not only was I the son of Xu Xiao, but I was also very likely to fight for the throne. If it were me, I would not be at ease to hand over the old man's belongings. That was why there was such a storm. The old man must have forced me to a dead end and was only willing to let it go when he saw my true nature. "
The Peach Blossom Sword Deity who had no interest in the rise and fall of the world sneered and said, "In the end, he still took advantage of his seniority."
Hsu Fengnian did not comment. He turned around and asked with a smile, "Is it because the flying sword can't enter Mount Wudang?"
Đồng Thái said frankly, "Of course. Once the sword is out, how can it return without any results?"
Hsu Fengnian and Đồng Thái raised their heads at the same time and looked at the distant sky that was gradually turning white. After the Saint of the Zhang family died in a way similar to the immortal Zhenren of Taoism, there seemed to be a new phenomenon between heaven and earth. It was unclear and covered the mysteries of heaven.
Heaven and earth were filled with righteous Qi. Mixed Qi gave form to the flow, abundant enough to fill the Firmament.
Hsu Fengnian said in a low voice, "To establish one's virtue, to establish one's merit, and to establish one's words. Sir, I really can't do it anymore. "
Đồng Thái crossed his arms in front of his chest. "It's amazing, but in my opinion, it's still a little unsatisfying."
Hsu Fengnian sighed helplessly, "How can everyone be like you, Đồng Thái? You, don't just stand there and talk. "
Hsu Fengnian remembered something and said with a smile, "That's right, before the Old Master left, he wanted me to tell you that in his opinion, since the beginning of the sword a thousand years ago, you, Đồng Thái, have the best swordsmanship."
Đồng Thái grumpily said, "The path of swordsmanship is just a sesame seed abandoned by Ancestor Lu after picking up a watermelon."
Hsu Fengnian rolled his eyes and said, "Talking to you is boring."
Đồng Thái glanced at him from the corner of his eyes.
Hsu Fengnian asked, "How should we deal with the 200,000 swords scattered on the ground of the Wu family's sword tomb? Do we need you to return them? "
Đồng Thái asked in return, "Why, do you want to keep them?"
Hsu Fengnian hurriedly waved his hand and said, "How would I dare? That Wu family's ancestor would fight to the death with Beiliang. I can't go overboard when I use my hoe to steal their swords."
Đồng Thái said, "Then I'll return them all. The Wu family's swords are an eyesore to me anyway."
Hsu Fengnian lowered his voice. "Don't do that. You should at least choose a few hundred good swords and secretly leave them behind. Just say that the Zhang family's Saint destroyed them. If the Wu family's sword tomb doesn't let them off, go find the Zhang family's Saint Mansion and smash them!"
Đồng Thái's face was full of disdain. "I can't be bothered to do that."
Hsu Fengnian smiled brightly and said, "There's no need for the Peach Blossom Sword God to waste your energy. I'll do it, I'll do it. I'm quite familiar with intercepting swords."
Đồng Thái obviously didn't want to deal with this. He began to hold his breath and meditate. Controlling 200,000 swords to go to Beiliang was definitely not an easy task.
Hsu Fengnian suddenly said, "Before the old man left, he told me that Beimang's Tuoba's martial arts cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds overnight."
Đồng Thái immediately understood the crux of the matter. His face darkened. "He wants to use both Tuoba and Tantai Pingjing to deal with you at the same time?"
Hsu Fengnian said, "That's about right."
Đồng Thái asked, "Did the old man say how high Tuoba's cultivation is? Is there an analogy? "
Hsu Fengnian shook his head and said, "It's not clear. He only said five words, 'Celestial beings live forever'."
Đồng Thái frowned and said, "I've never been good at these cryptic words. Just tell me directly. When Wang Xianzhi left the Eastern Sea, was Tuoba slightly inferior or similar?"
Hsu Fengnian had obviously thought about this troublesome question long ago. He blurted out, "I guess the best result is that he was slightly inferior."
Đồng Thái asked, "Then the worst result?"
Hsu Fengnian half-joked, "I'm afraid I'll scare you if I say it."
Đồng Thái twitched the corner of his mouth. "Has anyone ever told you that it's actually quite boring to talk to you?"
Hsu Fengnian shook his head and said, "No, especially women! There's a popular saying in the Central Plains that proves it. Ten years to cultivate Song Yushu, a hundred years to cultivate Lu Dongxuan, and a thousand years to cultivate Hsu Fengnian. "
Đồng Thái said indifferently, "Oh? Not a hundred years to cultivate Hsu Fengnian, a thousand years to cultivate Lu Dongxuan? "
Hsu Fengnian pinched his chin and pretended to be confused. "Did I remember wrongly?"
Đồng Thái couldn't help but raise his voice. "Spit it out!"
Xu Fengnian put away his joking expression and sheathed the cold blade at his waist. "The worst outcome is that at some point in time, Bodhisattva Tuoba's combat power will be slightly stronger than Wang Xianzhi's."
Đồng Thái dismissed it with a smile, loosened his arms, and stretched. Dawn was coming. "Then that's the worst result. Why don't you let me deal with Tuoba?"
Xu Fengnian shook his head and narrowed his eyes as he gazed at the serene scene of the sky gradually turning blue and white. He lazily said, "You've already fought him once in the Northern Mang. Let me do it this time."
Đồng Thái was silent for a moment and then said sarcastically, "Don't forget, you fought with him twice in the Western Regions and outside Liangzhou Pass! If I remember correctly, it was a draw and a loss, right? "
Hsu Fengnian allowed the breeze to blow away the last bit of blood on his body. "When have I ever lost? Moreover, that time in the Western Regions, if Li Mibi hadn't interfered at the last moment, Tuoba would have been a dead man. "
Đồng Thái dismissed it with a smile. "Fine. If you want to be a hero, I, Đồng Thái, will satisfy you."
Hsu Fengnian said softly, "Perhaps in terms of combat power, we are all in the Celestial Realm, so there's not much difference between us. However, there's a state of mind unique to Wang Xianzhi. Even if you, Đồng Thái, have Tai 'e, and even if Tuoba received a gift from an immortal, it's still impossible."
Đồng Thái asked curiously, "Invincible in the human world?"
Hsu Fengnian suddenly pulled out his cold saber and pointed it at the Great Sun leaping into the human world's vision. "The entire world's enemy!"
Đồng Thái asked again, "You have it?"
Hsu Fengnian didn't answer the question. "I've always had it in Beiliang!"
