With his cunning, the rookie had dug a hole for everyone in Heluo City. It was a simple method, but the effect was obvious. He didn't miss anything!
He had finally caught two claws that had reached into the Western Region. However, it wasn't under his initiative, but a passive participation!
What was worse was that he didn't do his best in this operation. Not only did the rookie take half of the credit, he even owed him a favor!
This made him feel very unhappy!
He didn't think that without the rookie's help, he would definitely be defeated. There was a high probability that he would be able to escape with his two claws! But the truth was the truth. This time, at least half of the credit belonged to the rookie. Luring the enemy and killing the enemy, there was nothing to say!
Yes, as proud as he was, he didn't think that the rookie owed him a favor. This was just a mission, nothing more!
But in the middle of a mission, he owed the rookie a favor. This was intolerable!
An elite Swordsman owed an external sword rookie a favor. It was unimaginable!
He didn't like this rookie, not at all! From the beginning, he had this attitude!
There were too many reasons.
The rookie didn't ride the sword! You're a Swordsman, but you don't use the Swordsman's way to travel. Are you still a Swordsman?
The rookie was too cunning! His thoughts were all on the crooked path. He caused countless troubles along the way, causing him to use all his skills!
The rookie was very timid. He knew that there might be a supreme cultivator chasing after him, but he didn't dare to walk in a straight line. Instead, he turned back in a curve. He couldn't hide his fear of death!
The rookie loved to sneak attack! You're a Xuanyuan Swordsman. Even if you're an external sword, can't you use your sword in a straightforward manner? Why did you have to take advantage of the fact that the rookie had just completed his secret technique and was weak?
The rookie was too perverted! Liking to see blood was one thing, indulging in it was another! Was this something that a normal person would do?
The rookie wasn't honest! He was obviously a pervert, but he said that he was scared of blood. Did he take him for a fool?
Rookie …
He didn't like rookies, but that didn't mean he would reject the mission. These were two different things!
In the Xuanyuan Sword School, there was a deep-rooted belief that the Inner Sword was the true guardian of Xuanyuan, while the Outer Sword was just a lackey!
The fact that a small fry had stolen the limelight of an elite was the reason why he was unhappy, although he might not be aware of it!
He still hoped that there would be a second wave of clawing hands to prove his ability, but he was obviously overthinking. Within one or two months of the dome, he could already see a few Swordsman flying through the air. This was already Xuanyuan's world!
In the unwritten rules of the Fifth Ring, if an external force entered the territory of the Fifth Ring, it was not necessary to kill them on sight. Instead, it was necessary to distinguish them by flying height!
For example, for a Foundation Establishment cultivator, if a Supreme or Three Pure Ones cultivator came here, they could either run on the ground and no one would find trouble with them, or fly at a height of five thousand feet. This was a sign of respect for the master. At most, a Swordsman would come over to ask, but they wouldn't directly attack!
If a Foundation Establishment cultivator directly swaggered through the air, there would definitely be a flying sword coming over to greet them. As for how they would continue, that was another matter altogether.
This was the case for cultivators in Xuanyuan territory. If a Swordsman went to the South-east region or the Er Sea Region, it was the same in the territories of the Supreme and Three Pure Ones. A powerful dragon could not defeat a snake in its own territory.
After a month or so away from the dome, the Swordsman's flying sword could be seen every day. He finally didn't have to worry about the rookie anymore. He shook his body and left on his own.
On the other hand, Lou Xiaoyi continued at his own pace. Originally, he wanted to use this opportunity to explore the mortal world more. Since other places were dangerous, there shouldn't be any problems in the area under the influence of the Xuanyuan Sword Sect, right? Just the area under the influence of the dome for two months was enough for him to travel for a few years.
However, because of the Sword Spirit, he had to return to the mountain. Only when he returned could he buy the materials to continue his countless guesses!
Previously, he didn't have much interest in swordsmanship because no matter how good he was at external swordsmanship, he was nothing more than a lackey in the eyes of the Inner Sword Sect in white. But now, he saw a different hope!
At the very least, in just a few months, the distance he could control with the Four Seasons Flying Sword had surpassed the proud and arrogant Inner Swordsman. This was unimaginable, and filled him with hope.
When he finally saw the snowy peaks of the dome that reached the clouds, he couldn't help but sigh! He also heaved a sigh of relief!
He, who had only been in the sect for three years, didn't have much of a sense of belonging to the sect, and didn't feel like he was going home. But there was one thing, a feeling of relief in his heart!
No matter what, it was a reliable place to stay. And when he was in danger, the sect didn't hesitate to lend a helping hand, although that guy wasn't very reliable!
Just like how he had left quietly, now he was returning quietly. No one knew, and no one cared. Therefore, no one waited for him. It was just like how he had stayed in the colorful world under the Snow-capped Peak for a period of time.
He wasn't a vain person, and he didn't want Xuanyuan to welcome him home with a grand welcome. However, he was still disappointed that Xuanyuan was going to welcome him home in such a gloomy manner. At the very least, he had killed four people. Was that something that anyone could do?
It could also be three. He just didn't know what the Inner Sword Sect in white would say when he returned. He didn't care!
It would be best if someone took the initiative to shoulder all the troubles he caused outside. Wasn't Xuanyuan happy to hear about the battle? Let them be happy. He just wanted to live his life well and not be bullied by others!
When he returned to his cave, everything was normal. This was the good thing about the snowy mountain. It was so clean that it seemed as if there wasn't a speck of dust, as if it wasn't in the mortal world.
But before he could decide on the next step of his cultivation, a warning appeared on the sword talisman. It was a notification from the Visit Hall that he had to end the mission!
He forgot!
Every time a Foundation Establishment cultivator completed a mission, they would go to the Visit Hall to cancel the mission and report the process of the mission. But the most important thing was, who did they kill during the mission? Which sect did they belong to? What was the reason?
The sect needed to know this, not to punish them, but to help the upper echelons make decisions for the future of the sect. From the encounters of these small Foundation Establishment cultivators outside, they could roughly determine which powers were friendly to Xuanyuan, and which ones were full of malice!
Lou Xiaoyi had no choice but to return to Thousand Elegance Peak. He hurriedly filled up a letter slip in the side hall where he received missions. He was vague about his actions, only saying that there was a conflict and that three people were killed in Min Province, but he didn't mention the truth of what happened afterwards.
His thought was, I'll just treat it as letting that Inner Sword Sect fellow off easy! What's the difference between three and four?
