"I, Lan Caixin, swear that from today onwards, all past grievances will be forgotten … If I go back on my word, may I be destroyed by the heavens and the earth …"
Lan Caixin gritted her teeth and shed tears. She swore to the vast ocean in the void.
At this moment, a hateful and resolute face flashed in her mind, as well as the voices and smiles of her fellow disciples who had died.
She would never forget that night at Crocodile Dragon Bay. She would never forget that determined and ruthless enemy, nor would she forget her fellow disciples who had died tragically under the enemy's knife.
It was this hatred that had supported her step by step until today.
But it was also this hatred that had shackled her cultivation of Sword Principle.
The reason why she had left Jiangzhou and came to the Northern Wilderness was to break the shackles and find an opportunity to break through.
At this moment, she had no choice but to swear an oath and finally tried to let go of this hatred.
"Junior Brother Li, Junior Brother Qu … I'm incompetent. I'm afraid I can't avenge you in this life. I hope your spirits in heaven can forgive me …"
"Lin Xuan! Although I can't avenge you anymore! However, I sincerely wish that you will die a horrible death! "
After swearing the oath, Lan Caixin wiped the tears from her face and wanted Heartless Ancestor to fulfill his promise.
But at this moment, she suddenly felt something and immediately sat down cross-legged.
At this moment, it was as if the barrier that had been shackling her had been broken. A seed that had been pressing on her heart rapidly took root and sprouted, pushing aside the boulder and turning into a towering tree that swayed in the wind.
Boom!
A majestic aura erupted from her body. Around her, a small patch of lush bamboo forest was formed.
This bamboo forest was exuberant with vitality, yet it emitted a peerlessly sharp aura of slaughter. It seemed as if every single leaf and every single bamboo joint was an all-conquering and all-destroying sword qi.
Endless Qi of Heaven and Earth surged.
Her cultivation began to rise rapidly, from the initial level of the God Gang Realm to the middle level of the God Gang Realm … to the later level of the God Gang Realm … to the peak of the God Gang Realm!
"Damn! Is this girl going to defy the natural order? She can break through like this? And she's breaking through continuously! "
In the outside world, Lin Xuan looked at this scene in surprise.
Never in his wildest dreams would he have thought that Lan Caixin would make consecutive breakthroughs in her cultivation just because he forced her to swear an oath!
In just a few minutes, she rose three levels from a beginner God Astral Realm martial artist to the Great Perfection of God Astral Realm!
Such a heaven-defying cultivation speed made Lin Xuan both shocked and envious.
There was even a moment when he wished he could switch to Sword Dao. Such heaven-defying continuous breakthroughs might only be possible when one had an epiphany of the Sword Dao.
Of course, he was only thinking about it. Cultivating the Way of the Sword required extremely high talent. He was not passionate about the sword since he was born. He only felt that it was not cool enough to kill people. Naturally, he did not have any talent.
At this moment, he was not the only one who was shocked and envious. Lan Caixin's neighbor, Xu Tianxing, was also extremely envious.
"Junior Sister, y-your Spirit Bamboo sword intent has actually entered the large success stage? This … "
Xu Tianxing widened his eyes in shock.
Lan Caixin slowly stopped, and the green bamboo forest around her disappeared. She opened her beautiful eyes, and her gaze was as calm as a quiet lake.
In this short period of time, not only had her Way of the Sword Dao improved, but her state of mind had also improved infinitely, reaching a mysterious state of Heart Integrated into Sword.
She calmly glanced at Xu Tianxing and said in a cold tone, "Senior Brother Xu, I have let go of the past grievances. From now on, you and I have nothing to do with each other. Take care of yourself."
"Junior Sister, Caixin, you …" Xu Tianxing's eyes were faintly regretful and jealous.
But at this time, Lan Caixin did not want to pay attention to him anymore. She transmitted her voice to the sky, "Senior Heartless, I have done what I promised you. It's time for you to fulfill your promise."
Huh?
Lin Xuan could not help but raise his eyebrows, feeling a little depressed.
If it was before, Lan Caixin was just an insignificant person in his eyes, and he would let her go. But now, this chick had become a Sword Dao master.
Although she was bound by the oath, she should not seek revenge on him.
But an oath was not omnipotent, what if …
"Haha, it's true that the older one is, the more cowardly one becomes. Back then in Fish Dragon Town, I dared to let her go. Now, with my status and strength as the Magic Lotus Sect's Sect Master and the Sanctuary Alliance's Master, why would I be afraid of a little girl who is still wet behind the ears?"
Lin Xuan laughed self-deprecatingly.
With a thought, he released Lan Caixin from the Illusory Demon Orb.
In the next moment, Lan Caixin felt the environment in front of her change. She had already appeared in a spacious and majestic hall from her original small world.
She was on full alert and quickly looked around. Soon, she noticed a burly young man standing 30 meters away with his hands behind his back.
The young man had delicate features and a cold expression. His eyes were as deep as the abyss, and he was sizing her up with interest.
Most importantly, Lan Caixin was not unfamiliar with this young man. It could even be said that she was very familiar with him, so familiar that she could dream of him almost every time she had nightmares.
"Lin Xuan?"
Lan Caixin's beautiful eyes suddenly widened. She looked at Lin Xuan in shock, and a bone-chilling hatred surged into her heart.
"I'll kill you, you bastard!"
She subconsciously withdrew her longsword, wanting to cut this enemy she had been thinking about day and night into ten thousand pieces.
However, Lin Xuan was not surprised at all. He laughed mockingly and said, "Little girl, have you forgotten the oath you just made?"
"You!"
Lan Caixin's delicate body froze. She could not help but be stunned, and her expression was uncertain.
After being stunned for a few breaths, she gradually understood. She glared at Lin Xuan and said through gritted teeth, "So, you're the Heartless Patriarch! You're the one who imprisoned me and Xu Tianxing! All of this is your scheme! Lin Xuan, you despicable and shameless person … "
Although she was furious, she did not continue to attack. Instead, she looked at Lin Xuan as if she wanted to eat him alive.
At this moment, she could vaguely feel the power of the oath.
She knew that if she insisted on taking revenge on Lin Xuan, Lin Xuan might not be harmed, but she would definitely end up in a miserable state.
This made her hesitate, and her heart was filled with hesitation.
At this moment, Lin Xuan shook his head and sighed. He turned around and walked to the window. He looked at the changing clouds and pretended to sigh emotionally. "Sigh, I originally wanted to give my heart to the moon, but the moon shines on the ditch."
"What do you mean?"
Lan Caixin said coldly.
Lin Xuan glanced at Lan Caixin from the corner of his eye. He was surprised to see that she had calmed down.
Well, it's easy now that she's calmed down.
Since I can't kill this chick, I'll fool her. Even if I can't take her as my subordinate, I'll at least make her let go of her hostility so that she won't become my stumbling block.
Lin Xuan sighed without rhyme or reason. "Lan Caixin, now that things have come to this, don't you understand my painstaking efforts?"
Lan Caixin snorted with resentment. "Hmph! Stop pretending, what painstaking efforts do you have? You killed my fellow disciples and humiliated me several times. I can't wait to eat your flesh, drink your blood, and burn your bones to ashes! "
"Haha, I don't blame you for having such thoughts! I, Lin Xuan, don't need to explain my actions to anyone. "
Lin Xuan smiled calmly and said, "However, don't you want to know why I broke up you and Xu Tianxing in Crocodile Dragon Bay? Why did I capture you ten days ago to let you see the true face of Xu Tianxing? "
"Hmm?"
Lan Caixin's eyes flashed, and a trace of doubt arose in her heart.
She did have some doubts in her heart about this.
Moreover, she also understood that if Lin Xuan really wanted to kill her, whether it was in Fish Dragon Town or in the previous space, it would have been a piece of cake.
However, this guy just forced her to make an oath and let her go so easily. This was simply illogical!
After hesitating for a while, she finally could not help but ask, "Then tell me, why did you do this?"
Good question!
Lin Xuan gathered his emotions and slowly turned around. His deep eyes looked straight at Lan Caixin as he said affectionately, "There's only one reason, and that is, from the first time I saw you, I couldn't help but fall in love with you!"
"What!"
Lan Caixin was stunned and looked at Lin Xuan in disbelief.
He likes me? How is this possible! He's my enemy … This bastard!
Lin Xuan sighed and said bitterly, "Why, is it strange? Do you think that a ruthless person like me, Lin Xuan, who kills people like scything flax, is not worthy of love?
That's right! Indeed, I don't deserve love, and I don't deserve a pure and holy woman like you. In my heart, you're the bright moon in the sky, the goddess in the clouds. You can only be seen from afar and can't be touched.
Therefore, all these years, I only dared to silently observe you and didn't intend to disturb your life.
Originally, I didn't want to appear in front of you again.
However, I didn't expect Xu Tianxing to find you again and use his flowery words to deceive your feelings again!
Xu Tianxing is the clone of Crown Prince Yu Tianxing. He has a harem of three thousand beauties and treats women like clothes. He doesn't have true feelings for you, he's just lusting after your beauty.
I couldn't stand by and watch you fall into his evil clutches. So, you know what happened next. "
"How could this be? That's impossible … "
Lan Caixin's face was filled with disbelief. Under Lin Xuan's "affectionate" gaze and confession, she only felt that she could not withstand it. Her worldview was almost overturned, and her mind was in a mess.
An enemy that she couldn't wait to kill suddenly stood in front of her and said that he liked her, and that everything he did was for her good. However, she couldn't refute it …
For a moment, Lan Caixin couldn't help but feel confused.
Of course, it was undoubtedly a fool's dream to say that she liked Lin Xuan.
However, Lin Xuan's words quietly dispelled a lot of the hatred in her heart.
This was human nature. For someone who was infatuated with her, she might hate them, but it was often difficult to hate them.
Lin Xuan looked at Lan Caixin's expression and couldn't help but laugh in his heart. Even Xu Tianxing could coax you, so how could I not be better than Xu Tianxing?
