"However, a sword technique that remains unchanged will eventually be discovered and its weaknesses found by others."
"The Nine Swords of Falling Snow were created based on this principle. The number 'nine' symbolizes endless possibilities, which is why I named it that in the first place," Master's wife continued to explain.
“Xiao Xi, you are exceptionally intelligent, you really shouldn’t confine yourself to the world of the Nine Swords of Falling Snow.”
"We can guide you out of the door, but once you're out there, you still need to rely on yourself to understand the true meaning of it."
"After all, the level of skill that your master and I have achieved is just as you see it, and you are destined to surpass us and walk ahead of us in the future."
"Don't let outdated ideas bind your hands and feet." My teacher's wife gently patted my shoulder, her eyes revealing deep expectation.
Not long ago, I pondered this question deeply. After countless fierce battles, even my master, who was initially considered omnipotent and invincible in my mind, had moments when he was powerless and unable to defend himself.
However, after meeting Senior Jiang, I realized that Taoism is full of hidden masters and experts.
Especially when Senior Jiang clashed with Ghost King Yun Si, Chairman Fang's sudden intervention broadened my horizons and gave me a deeper understanding of the strength of Taoist masters.
Facing these top figures, I felt as insignificant as an ant and couldn't help but feel awe.
They are like towering mountains reaching into the clouds, unreachable, or like bottomless abysses, mysterious and unpredictable.
At this moment, I can only look up from the foot of the mountain. When will I be able to stand on the summit of this Taoist mountain?
The day passed quickly, but it was also very fulfilling.

Wu Shi and I have arranged to have dinner with Xixi and Sister Jiang Lu tomorrow.
Actually, I also wanted to see Xixi before taking any action. After all, she's my best friend, the little girl who will unconditionally support me no matter what happens.
At night, I lay in my rented room, staring blankly at the ceiling, feeling uneasy.
This operation has put me under immense pressure, perhaps because of the many dead disciples of the Taoist Association, which makes me somewhat worried.
Knock knock knock
"Xiao Xi, are you asleep?"
Wu Shi's voice came from outside the door.
"Not yet, can't you sleep either?"
Wu Shi walked into the room, looking preoccupied.
"I figured you might not be able to sleep either, so I thought I'd come and keep you company."
"Xiao Xi, I just received news that the association will begin its search operation in three days. It seems they're really serious this time."
"Then, should we also participate in the search operation?" I sat up and gestured for Wu Shi to sit down.
Wu Shi slowly sat down on the bed and shook his head: "No need, but we will go to provide support once we have any clues."
"We need to be extra cautious lately."
