Chapter 83 Chapter 83 Breakthrough? !
With the Sword Immortal's token, Qin Zhou and his party came to the side hall of the sixth peak of the Sword Sect without any hindrance.
This is the Sword Sect’s Sutra Library.
The open-air courtyard outside the Sutra Repository, which was paved with bluestone bricks, really looked like a school at this moment. Desks were neatly arranged, and many monks were sitting among them, reading and passing around books.
The disciples of the Sword Sect went in and out of the attic, moving books for many monks.
There was another person sitting in front of the Sutra Library.
Some monks took the spirit stones and gave them to him, and only then were they allowed to have a desk and a seat on this open-air courtyard platform.
Qin Zhou understood after seeing this.
This is making money.
Wen Jue glanced at Lu Er, as if asking, is your Sword Sect really poor?
Lu Er didn't feel guilty, "...I have to make a living."
Jiang Huan nodded upon seeing this, "It's a rare occasion that such wealth is splashed upon the Sword Sect."
The sword cultivator is poor.
The alchemists, weapon cultivators, and talisman cultivators would easily get a lot of spiritual stones from the gaps between their fingers. Sword cultivators were different, they had no business to do, and if they still had spiritual stones on them, they would ask their fellow apprentices to borrow them the next day.
Not only have I borrowed it, but I don’t even know when I’ll return it.
"You don't need to give spirit stones. Since you are the distinguished guests of the Sword Immortal Master, you can go directly to the attic." The Sword Sect disciple who led them here said shyly.
"The books given to these people are all printed temporarily. The books upstairs are all genuine ancient books. You can read them at will, as long as you don't damage the books."
It’s different with the token in hand.
In full view of everyone, the group went straight into the Sutra Repository.
The Sword Sect disciples were sent here, then turned around and went to the Sect's main hall to report that the master's distinguished guest had arrived, and they had to inform the Sect Master.
"Village chief, what are we doing here?" Smelling the smell of books mixed with dust, Lu Qi rubbed his nose uncomfortably.
"Come and see."
It's like a library in the real world.
Lu Er followed everyone up to the second floor, "There is no record of you here. It's just that those people thought there was."
The village chief is a mystery, and the villagers can see it. Even Lu Yi is afraid to tell the details of the village chief.
It will certainly not be found in the ancient books of the Sword Sect.
"It's okay, I'm just taking a look. After all, it will take some time for him to call the Sect Master." Qin Zhou said. After calling the Sect Master, he will talk about the Qilin Pearl.
Wen Jue said happily, "If there is no record of the news about the Lord of the Heavens, then there should be a record of the life of the Cangyun Sword Immortal. I remember the records of our sect's disciples, and it should be on the third floor."
Qin Zhou was surprised, "You know it clearly."
Wen Jue said unnaturally: "At that time I didn't learn sword, so I just played around."
What he didn't say was that in order to understand the village chief's background, he did spend a long time in the Sword Sect's library.
"No need to follow me. Since we are already back to the sect, just take off the Face Cleansing Pills and go back." Qin Zhou said to the people behind him.
Hearing these words, Jiang Huan was the first to be moved.
He hasn't returned to the Sword Sect for many years.
It was rare that he was not coming as an undercover agent this time, so he should change back into his clothes and go back to being his junior master from the Sword Sect.
Jiang Huan and Lu Xiao left first.
Then Qin Zhou and Wen Jue went up to the third floor.
Lu Er and Lu Qi stood where they were, not sure whether they should follow.
In the end, they all did not go upstairs, and Lu Qi sat on the stairs. There was no one on the second floor, but he could vaguely hear the sound of the Sword Sect disciples printing the "new book" from the first floor.
Seeing this, Lu Er also sat down with him.
This was the first time Lu Qi didn't dodge.
…
"You did it on purpose." Wen Jue suddenly said this after going up to the third floor.
Qin Zhou walked towards the bookcase, looked at it, and answered, "What do you mean?"
"I came to the Sword Sect on purpose to force the two of them to look each other in the face." Wen Jue said, leaning against the bookcase with his arms folded.
"I don't understand." Qin Zhou smiled faintly.
"You understand." Wen Jue snorted, "I heard that Lao Wu was refining the Soul-Regenerating Pill for Shisi, and it was you who forced him to do that."
"Isn't it good?" Qin Zhou took out one of the books and started flipping through it.
"...Good. At least Old Five's knot has been untied, and Fourteen's life can be saved."
Qin Zhou smiled and said, "Although Lu Er doesn't talk much, he always cares about you."
"You know it again."
"The Sword Sect is very close to Jiecheng." Qin Zhou's voice was steady, with an unprecedented sense of stability, as if it could easily calm down his emotional irritability. "The Sword Sect goes to the Secret Realm every year, not because he is afraid of not being able to catch up with the war with the Demon Sect, but because he is afraid that if he goes too late, he will not be able to save you."
"I don't need him to save me."
"Two fists are no match for four hands."
Qin Zhou's words left Wen Jue speechless.
"Lu Er is a man of few words, but he cares about you the most." Qin Zhou continued to flip through the book, "Do you remember how Lu Er came to the village?"
Wen Jue paused, "In that era, there were quite a few children who were abandoned."
Lu Er is an abandoned baby.
Other children may have come to the village when they were a few years old.
But Lu Er actually grew up in the village.
But he was precocious, his elder brother was playful, and the village chief was often away, so Lu Er's personality was much more mature and silent. As more children came to the village, Lu Er naturally took on more responsibilities.
"I can guess what's going on between him and Lu Qi." Qin Zhou thought about it and felt that it was just a coincidence.
He originally wanted Lu Yi to go to the Sword Sect to temper his temper, but Lu Yi ended up sending Lu Er to the Sword Sect as well.
Sect Master Ye Dingsheng accepted both of them as his disciples, but taught Lu Er all the morality and sword skills.
The way in Lu Er's heart, inherited from the way of Sect Master Ye Dingsheng, is the righteousness as straight and sharp as a sword, the righteousness that kills evil spirits. One sword drives away the devil, and the great way is bright and righteous.
That's why he could become the master of the Sword Sect and be known as the Sword Immortal.
With Lu Er's character, Qin Zhou didn't think Lu Er would go astray. If he practiced the ruthless way, Lu Er's ascension would probably only be a small step ahead of Lu Yi.
Only a ruthless God can be truly fair and just.
But Lu Er fell in love with Lu Qi, who grew up with him.
Xiao Qi and Lu Er are different.
Xiao Qi was born in the market. He doesn't care about right or wrong. He just follows his heart. He follows his heart. That's why Xiao Qi was able to found the Demon Sect and always stand by Lu Yi.
But that kind of free-spirited, flamboyant and eye-catching behavior was something the young and precocious Lu Er had never seen before.
I'm afraid the same is true for Lu Er to Xiao Qi.
When Xiao Qi came out of the quagmire, she saw Lu Er, who was taciturn but kind-hearted. It was not surprising that Xiao Qi was attracted to Lu Er. Lu Er was like the ice flower on the cliff of Gaoling Mountain, and he was Xiao Qi's dream, covered in mud.
Whatever Xiao Qi wants, he will fight for it and plunder it. He has been cunning and independent since he was a child, and Lu Er will not be his opponent.
It is not difficult to imagine that they are attracted to each other and finally reach perfection.
But people with different ideas cannot work together.
Lu Yi and Xiao Qi fought for the future of the immortal world, but it is a fact that they became demons and killed many people.
Lu Erxue punishes evil and promotes good, and even his loved ones become his enemies.
Does he want his way or his relatives?
This is an unsolvable problem.
"Lu Er had already made his choice when he located the Sword Sect not far from Jiecheng." Lu Yi and Xiao Qi have been running the Jiecheng Secret Realm for so many years without making any mistakes, and there are no clues... I'm afraid Lu Er also contributed to this.
In order to keep their secrets, Lu Er's hands probably have been stained with blood that shouldn't have been stained.
And that blood will turn into a nightmare, eating away at his heart and bones when he enters a state of meditation.
There are signs that the swordsman was damaged. The path he was looking for had already been blocked by the dead souls. And his sword could not kill them again.
"Xiao Qi is closest to him. He will see this matter more clearly than us." Qin Zhou lowered his eyes, "So the separation of the two should be a decision made by Xiao Qi for Lu Er."
Wen Jue remained silent and did not answer.
He always remembered that when Lu Qi said he wanted to establish the Demon Sect, his eyebrows danced with joy.
"If someone has to shoulder the responsibility of saving the world, why shouldn't it be me, Lu Qi?"
Wen Jue was puzzled at that time, "If you choose the magic path, it means you have lost Lu Er. Have you thought it through?"
"Hmph, him." Lu Qi turned his back. "He should go find his way. Aren't we cultivators aiming for ascension? I won't be a burden to him, and neither will Lu Xiao. I dared to like him then, and I dare not like him now. What's so difficult about that?"
That voice seemed free and easy, yet filled with endless melancholy.
"No." Wen Jue denied Qin Zhou's words.
"It was a decision they made together to separate."
"Lu Qi and I will be responsible for reducing the burden on the world. Lu Er will be responsible for practicing well. If Lu Er can really ascend to heaven and attain enlightenment, he may be able to find another way to save the stagnant spiritual energy world."
“We’re all working on this world.”
"I was the one who broke the Sword Sect's protective formation." Wen Jue said, "Taking the opportunity of rebuilding the formation, Lu Qi used the Qilin Pearl to seal the memories of the Sword Sect's disciples. One reason was to allow him to be a demon without being recognized, and the other was to prevent others from knowing that the Sword Sect's Lu Er had any connection with the two demons."
"As for moving the Sword Sect to the vicinity of Jiecheng, that was a later matter. Some people would rather sacrifice morality to protect the two demons." Wen Jue glanced at the two people at the stairs, "They practiced in seclusion every year, but their swordsmanship became more and more damaged every year."
"I feel bad for him, but I also feel sorry for his damaged swordsmanship."
"Some people, who are most suited to cultivating the ruthless way, want to be the most loyal swordsman in the world."
"Some people curse non-stop, but they feel extremely distressed in their hearts."
"If you hadn't come back, I don't know how many years it would have taken for these things to end." Wen Jue waved his hand, "Anyway, I'm fed up. It's better to dismantle the Qilin Pearl to tell the world that the Sword Sect and the Demon Sect are one family. The righteous can be angry if they want, but they can't win, so they can only rage helplessly."
Wen Jue glanced at the two people who were frozen at the stairs and said, "Why, you don't have anything to say?"
The two of them then slowly stood up and walked over.
When facing Qin Zhou and Wen Jue, Lu Er lowered his head.
He did not feel guilty when facing the village chief because he had not made any progress. What he felt guilty about was that he had failed to live up to everyone's expectations and that he could not save the world.
"Village Chief, I will take care of the matter of Kenshin's damage."
Qin Zhou: "How to solve it? I have a heartless pill. If you take it, you can completely forget about Lu Qi. Do you want to take it? If you take it and practice the heartless way, maybe you will ascend to heaven soon."
Lu Er: “…”
Lu Qi's eyes widened even more.
Even Wen Jue was stunned.
Seeing that everyone was startled, Qin Zhou said faintly: "I was joking."
"Lu Er, you are blinded by one thing. There are thousands of great ways. You have inherited the righteousness of Sect Master Ye, but your way and Sect Master Ye's way are not the same." Qin Zhou said seriously.
"The ruthless path may be suitable for sword cultivators. But no one has ever said that sword cultivators cannot follow the path of affection. Is it contradictory to have affection and the Tao in one's heart?"
"Use the sword in your heart to protect the one in your heart and keep the world peaceful. This is the path you should take."
Wen Jue raised his hand, "But Lu Qi is the devil."
Qin Zhou glanced at him, "Lu Qi, right?"
Wen Jue was speechless.
It seemed that this question was not addressed to Lu Qi, but to him, "Are you the devil?"
"I have also killed many people, and I have a lot of karma on my shoulders..."
“But because of this, the heavens have existed for tens of thousands of years and continued countless lives and vitality.” Qin Zhou said in a deep voice.
【:) The village chief is right. The merit light was not distributed due to some reasons that are inconvenient to disclose. Please do not belittle yourselves, the two demons. You are benefactors to the heavens.】
The affirmation from Heaven left Wen Jue and Lu Qi speechless.
[He seems to be about to break through]
Xiaolu suddenly reminded.
The three of them all turned their eyes to Lu Er.
The surrounding spiritual energy actually all rushed towards Lu Er's body, very violently. But the strange thing was that the violent spiritual energy swept past the three people, but was blocked one by one by the sword energy.
Is this what it means to use the sword in your heart to protect the person in your heart?
Lu Er closed his eyes tightly, he seemed to have touched the threshold of some truth.
His ways…his ways.
Wen Jue's face changed drastically when he saw this. "He is about to break through. Everyone in the Sutra Library must leave."
If Lu Er dared to bring about a breakthrough thunder tribulation above the Sword Sect, the thunder tribulation of the Mahayana period would be able to directly split the twelve peaks of the Sword Sect.
Lu Qi reacted the fastest, "I'll go!"
"Lu Qi you..."
Lu Qi took off his mask and revealed his true face, "The devil is coming, if they don't run away, I'll kill them!"
Wen Jue made a prompt decision, "I will set up a barrier to prevent the surrounding area from being affected."
Qin Zhou looked at this scene and smiled.
So, how could they be demons?
"Why don't you leave yet!" Wen Jue paused as he was forming a seal.
Qin Zhou: "Let's go now."
A young cultivator in the Jindan stage must have the self-knowledge of a young cultivator.
…
[Village Chief, you can actually ask me to postpone Lu Er's thunder tribulation for a few days.]
Qin Zhou stood in the distance, looking at the Sutra Library that was already enveloped by the spiritual energy tornado, and asked, "Why postpone it?"
"The fact that they are not demons should be made known to the world."
"The villagers I raised were all very good children."
And the time has come for the good and evil to merge.
