"Uncle-Master, I will inform Master of these things as always."
"Then I can rest assured." Ai Fengling raised his fan to shield his eyes from the shining sunlight. He rarely got up this early when he was on Lingxiao Peak.
His daily routine was the opposite of others; most of the time, he would go out at sunset and rest at sunrise. This caused his disciples, who rarely had time to come up the mountain to study, to eventually run away due to their unbearable suffering.
"Then shall I set off with Jinwu?"
"Wait." A slightly serious voice rang out, and the two people and the bird looked up at the sky. It was Shan Hongxing who was flying over on his sword.
"You..." Shan Hongxing clenched his fist in his sleeve and handed over a box. "I didn't think too much about it a few days ago. What exactly did you do to Xiao Wu's longevity tablet?"
"I... it is me..." Yuan Qingling smiled bitterly, and finally confronted him. Moreover, judging from Shan Hongxing's accusing look, it was probably because he had messed things up.
"The Longevity Pill is useless for Senior Sister."
"What do you mean?" Shan Hongxing concealed his aura, the gold in his eyes gradually dimming. "You'd better explain yourself! Don't think I won't beat you up just because you're crippled now!"
“The literal meaning.” Ai Fengling glanced at Yuan Qingling, who was still stunned. “Fine, you can stay and listen too! Push me back inside; it’s not a good place to talk outside.”
"Oh, okay, okay." Yuan Qingling knew that Ai Fengling was treating him as one of her own.
"You've got no ambition!" Shan Hongxing glared at him.
Yuan Qingling always felt that this stern-faced senior uncle was smiling, but when he looked again, he was frightened by the grim look on his face.
"Do you know that founding master, senior brother?"
"Didn't they perish?"
“I don’t know the specifics.” Ai Fengling closed his eyes, as if in meditation. “Among us, only you, Senior Brother, are still standing intact.”
"Song Huan...was also involved in an accident?"
“It’s true that he’s lost his mind.” Ai Fengling laughed, her tone full of mockery. “I injured my leg, but my senior sister injured her soul. You guys always call him Song the Fool, don’t you ever think there’s something wrong with him?”
"he……"
"I overthought things, and the formation failed to make me a great power. When the demons attacked, it was a case of killing a thousand enemies but losing eight hundred of my own! Otherwise, why would the spies from my Xuan Yun Sect that the demons sent be so stupid as to go straight to Ten Thousand Zhang Peak to cause trouble for my senior sister?"
As she laughed, Ai Fengling laughed until tears streamed down her face. "It's all thanks to this idiot that he was able to create such a bizarre formation. It looks useless, but it's more useful than anything else."
At least, with his intelligence alone, he outmaneuvered these scheming demons. The more people they sent, the dumber the fool, and the more likely the demons were to make foolish mistakes.
Shan Hongxing's lips twitched slightly; this was the first time he had ever heard of this.
Since Ai Fengling was able to bring it up, it means that the incident has been going on for a long time.
When did you find out?
"It's very early." Ai Fengling opened her eyes and wiped away her tears. "Senior brother, I used to be the most cold-hearted one among the four of us, but senior sister disliked you so much. Do you know why?"
Why?
"You may seem cold-hearted yet deeply affectionate, but ask yourself honestly, when were you ever in trouble?"
"Didn't you know she went to the Burning Heaven Gate?"
“I know, but I won’t stop her. I won’t be like you, unable to bear watching her jump into the fire.” As he spoke, he opened the box, inside which was a jade pendant.
"..." Shan Hongxing remained silent for a while before saying, "You think I'm all sanctimonious and nothing more than a hypocrite?"
“I didn’t say that.” Ai Fengling tossed the box to Yuan Qingling, then looked at the jade pendant. “Do you know what I was thinking when my senior sister told me to pursue the path of weapon cultivation?”
"What……"
"I've been thinking about how to destroy this Xuan Yun Sect," he sneered. "So, I added quite a few things to the barrier set up by our ancestors."
I think, since the four of us were chosen by our master to exterminate demons, and since those demons all crave the divine and demonic opportunities offered by the sect, why not destroy the Xuan Yun Sect, corrupt those opportunities, and prevent them from using them?
The best way to solve a problem is to eradicate it completely, so that it can be solved once and for all. This is what my master once taught me.
Therefore, my sword intent has always been unorthodox, forming its own unique style, because all my moves are killing blows.
"Are you crazy?!"
“Look at this.” Shan Hongxing’s reaction seemed to be exactly what he had expected. Ai Fengling was not angered by these words, but continued, “To be honest, there are very few people on this mountain who are not crazy.”
"Oh, Senior Sister Bai is really not crazy. As for the others, that idiot Song Huan is a lunatic. How could he even think of a method like reducing intelligence?"
"And then what!" Shan Hongxing dropped his sword. What could he do with a junior brother like this? He couldn't very well kill him. "What did you do after that?"
“My talent is very strong, and like my previous sword techniques, they are also aimed at killing, except... when I'm facing my senior sister, I'll show that little bit of kindness.”
“I know that if it weren’t for what you gave me, I wouldn’t have had a match with her when she first woke up.”
“Yes.” Ai Fengling smiled. “Since I am a weapon cultivator, I am somewhat knowledgeable in everything. In addition, that idiot Song Huan once asked me to help him set up an array, so naturally, I can quickly detect auras that ordinary people cannot see. Strictly speaking, my senior sister after waking up is no longer a real senior sister.”
"You said... during the years the mountain was sealed off, the formations left on the mountain, judging from the traces, were two extreme methods of formation?"
"That was Grandmaster's guidance," Ai Fengling teased, as if showing off. "Didn't you?"
Shan Hongxing glared at him coldly, "Let's get down to business!"
"It's serious business!" Ai Fengling smiled, picked up the jade tablet, broke it in half, and then used her Xuan Qi to activate it, leaving only half of the longevity tablet. As for the other half, "Do you recognize it? Your Severance of Thoughts. That sword that was broken in two can be in three pieces."
Shan Hongxing staggered, took the longevity tablet, and looked at Ai Fengling suspiciously, "How, how could this be? Duan Nian, yes, I picked it up, picked it up in the back mountain, Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu broke it."
"In the past, there was a sword in the Burning Heaven Sect, which was the personal sword of that grandmaster, and it was called Burning Heaven."
"Quick thinking..."
"Mother and Child Swords"
"The Mother Sword..."
"Back then, Fentian killed too many demons, and his sword energy was tainted by demonic energy and could no longer be restored. The ancestor had no choice but to take a section of the sword tip and attach it to the broken sword Duan Nian. The remaining sword body was melted down and became the later Demon Qin."
"Why..." Shan Hongxing was a little annoyed. These people had kept everything from him.
"Because my ideas are dangerous enough!" Ai Fengling's smile widened, and the smugness made Shan Hongxing want to punch her: "Song Huan, that idiot, is dangerous enough. As for Senior Sister... when has she ever not been dangerous?"
Oh, by the way, our Senior Brother Fan almost destroyed the Xuan Yun Sect too; he also witnessed our Grandmaster's divine intervention.
