When she woke up, it was already completely dark. Her body was cleaned up, but her limbs were sore as if she had practiced swordsmanship day and night for several days. The man was sitting at the golden nanmu table, writing something. He was wearing a black robe with dark gold dragon patterns. The cuffs were tightly bound by wrist guards of the same material. The tailoring was extremely tight and neat, giving people a sense of restraint and shock. When she woke up, he immediately picked up a few pages of paper and walked over to her like offering treasures:

"I wrote another copy of the Sky-Breaking Sword Intention."

She sat up suddenly, accidentally touching her wound. She gasped and was about to scream out in pain when a hand supported her back. A steady stream of magic power with gentle energy flowed into her limbs.

"Does it still hurt?"

Yao Yue didn't bother to answer, and was concentrating on reading the page in her hand. This Sky-breaking Sword Intention was much thinner than the Heavenly Star Scripture and any other skills, but the mystery within it was something she had never heard of before. After she finished reading it roughly, she felt her sea of ​​​​qi surging, and she couldn't help but be shocked - it turned out that the Sword Master didn't let her practice this sword technique in order to save her life, and she would definitely go astray at that time.

The sword techniques of Wanjian Mountain were all extremely masculine and strong, and were not suitable for women to practice, and this Heaven Breaking Sword Intent was no exception. She did not have a photographic memory, but it was no exaggeration to say that she was the best in the world in terms of her ability to extract the essence of each martial art.

The Sky-breaking Sword Intentions emphasizes a broad and deep, boundless and majestic like the ocean. Although the moves are powerful, they are not to her taste. She loves the precision and elegance of being able to achieve success in one stroke and hit the target in one blow. If she had to describe it, she would probably refine the vast sea of ​​swords into a single indestructible sword energy.

"Okay, I'll give it back to you." She handed the pages of sword techniques back, and saw the man looking at her expectantly and anxiously, seeming to be hesitant to speak.

It was not difficult for her to guess what this fool was thinking. The girl smiled, indescribably charming, eclipsing the moon outside the window, "Are you trying to ask me if I remember what I promised you?"

His hand on her back tightened slightly and he nodded.

"Of course I remember, but—" She changed the subject and saw the man's back straightened as if he was in a state of alert. He laughed in his heart, "You broke my sword. I can't use this Sky-Splitting Sword Intent, so it's naturally not important anymore."

Now that things have come to this, even if Jiang Mi is slow, he knows what to do. He immediately takes out the Huangji Tian Sword from his waist and puts it into her arms.

"Use this."

She grasped the hilt of the sword with satisfaction. As soon as she pulled it out, the sword disappeared from her hand and reappeared in Jiang Mi's hand out of thin air, even making a slight buzzing sound as if mocking her.

He hurriedly handed the sword over again. The girl's face turned dark and red. She opened his hand and snorted coldly: "Forget it, the sword recognizes its master."

——I think her Fu Shui will not easily recognize a second master, but she is used to using a good sword and she won’t accept it now.

Jiang Mi felt extremely guilty, and the feeling of regret and self-contempt was as heavy as a mountain, almost suffocating him: "...Can the Fushui Sword be repaired?"

Bai Ruyu is very meticulous. Her broken sword will definitely be picked up by Quan Xing, but it probably cannot be repaired.

"Only one dragon appears in Hualong Sea every thousand years. Where can we find the second one?"

"Is there nothing else that can replace the dragon bone?"

"Yes. They are none other than the four fierce beasts."

Those ancient ferocious beasts usually live at the end of the continent and appear in the world to cause trouble every few hundred years. It has been just eight years since the last time Qiongqi flew from the polar ice cave to Jiangyun Province.

The most difficult of the four fierce beasts is Taotie, whose appetite is really too big, but the most notorious one is Taowu. To the east is the Hualong Sea, and Hun Dun is lazy by nature and doesn't want to travel thousands of miles across the sea; to the north is the high and cold mountains that are not easy to cross to block Qiongqi; to the south is the Shiwan Mountains with many wild beasts, and Taotie will naturally not come to Jiuzhou to cause trouble when he is tired of eating.

Only the west has no suitable natural barrier to stop Taowu. The beast doesn't like to eat food that is contaminated by demonic energy, so the demon cultivators are spared, and even help Taowu invade Chiyouzhou or Tianjunzhou. This level of beast is difficult to kill even if you have reached the immortal realm, which is very thankless, so most of the time you use formations or illusions to drive it away, and wait for it to return when it is tired.

Jiang Mi put away the Imperial Heavenly Sword, his eyes were so bright that they were dazzling, a light that would not change even if the sky fell and the earth collapsed, and then he smiled at her:

"I see."

***

The next morning, she finished her meditation but didn't see Jiang Mi, which made her feel a little uncomfortable. The Demon Palace's bedroom was decorated with glittering curtains, but the maids were not allowed to enter at will due to the Demon Emperor's request. It was empty and quiet at the moment. She walked for a while and went around to the front hall, where she saw a group of people arguing in the hall, fidgeting like ants on a hot pot.

"How dare you go there alone?"

"The Great Protector can't fly a sword, I don't know if he can catch up?!"

The demon came up to her as soon as he saw her, made a gesture to keep quiet, and led her back. He stopped when they were in a secluded place, raised his thin lips and said, "Do you know where His Majesty went?"

This was obviously not a question. The sinister Taoist was indeed very intelligent, but Yao Yue hated his mysterious and sober attitude the most. She frowned impatiently and said, "Hurry up and tell me."

"He went to the Netherworld River to look for Taowu!" He pointed at himself as if to take credit, "The location of the nest I calculated cannot be wrong."

The wronged souls and wild ghosts linger on the banks of the Nether River for a long time. It is said that underneath the river is the gate to the underworld. Whenever the ghosts in the river are overloaded, the Yellow Spring Road will be opened to allow these ghosts to flow into the underworld.

She suddenly recalled that when she asked him to steal the Sky-breaking Sword Intention, he also said "I know", and even his smile was the same. She couldn't help but feel a headache: there were both resentful ghosts and Taowu, this new Demon King was really a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers...

Now his meridians have not recovered yet, and he doesn't even have a sword... He was extremely anxious for a moment, and looked at the demon with a murderous look in his eyes, "Why didn't you stop him?!"

"Your Majesty, where do you want to go? Can I stop you?" He changed the subject and said with a chuckle, "Don't worry, I've calculated it, your life is safe."

At most, there will be some bloody disaster.
