"Haha, how difficult is it to follow the path of sword cultivation? People in the world are attracted by people like the crucian carp crossing the river, but the ones who are truly talented are very rare. I think you have a good talent, and I hope you can continue on this path."

After hearing this, Liang Yan smiled casually: "Thank you Taoist friend for your kind words!"

The two of them kept talking, and the red line on the jade pendant soon came to an end.

On the mountain peak ahead, a magnificent attic appeared. There was a plaque directly above the attic, which read: "Juxian Pavilion" in three characters!

"We're here."

Liu Rushi smiled slightly, turned off the light, and came to the door with Liang Yan.

It's very deserted here, not a soul can be seen for hundreds of miles.

Liang Yan followed Liu Rushi into the attic and found that there was only one person inside.

This person is a young man, with eyebrows like ink paintings and a face like a crown jade. He is dressed as a scholar. He is sitting on a mahogany table and sleeping soundly.

He propped his head up with his hands and closed his eyes slightly. There was an incense burner placed next to him, with light green smoke lingering around him, like clouds covering the fog.

"Ahem!" Liu Rushi coughed.

The scholar seemed to be aware of it, his eyelids twitched slightly.

The next moment, he yawned lazily.

"well!

The mood on the couch is sweet, and the sun is getting late outside the window.

Incense and seals are lingering on the desk, and the spring breeze is blowing willow silk.

The ink is light and the thoughts are far away. Who knows?

The clouds are floating, the shadows of flowers are moving, and the deep dreams are entering new poetry..."

Without opening his eyes, the man shook his head and composed a poem on the spot. After singing, he stretched again and then slowly opened his eyes.

"Oh? Isn't this the 'Qin Burning Fairy' Liu Rushi? A rare visitor, a rare visitor! How come you have time to come to our Hidden Sword Academy?"

"Huh, do you think I'm being rude? You Hidden Sword Academy are either hypocrites or scoundrels. If I hadn't accepted the order from the Confucian League General Forum, I wouldn't have bothered to come to Cangwu Realm." Liu Rushi's tone was cold, without any good looks on his face.

But the scholar didn't care at all, and said with a smile: "Well done, Fairy, well done! Our Sword Hidden Academy is indeed not a place for humans. Fang doesn't want to join in, and has long wanted to leave here! I don't know what the Fairy is doing.

Can Holy Spirit Academy still accept people? Fairy Youlao, please accept Fang."

Liu Rushi was obviously stunned for a moment after hearing this.

She didn't expect this person to be such a scoundrel. He was just trying to take advantage of him. Some of the sarcastic words she had prepared could not be uttered at this moment.

After a pause, Liu Rushi snorted: "Fang Xi, our Holy Spirit Academy will not accept scoundrels like you. It will ruin its reputation in vain!"

"Hahaha!"

The man named "Fang Xi" was not annoyed at all. Instead, he laughed loudly and then turned to look at Liang Yan.

"May I ask who this is?"

Without waiting for Liang Yan to answer, Liu Rushi said first, "His name is 'Lu Xuanji', and he stood out in the talent recruitment assessment in Yudai City. Because he is a sword cultivator, he chose your Sword Hidden Academy."

After hearing this, Fang Xi immediately showed an expression of interest.

"Oh? Your Excellency is also a sword cultivator?"

While speaking, he looked at Liang Yan with bright eyes.

The two looked at each other from afar.

In an instant, Liang Yan felt the opponent's sword intent surging, and his body exuded a fierce aura, as if an invisible sword was slashing through the air towards him!

"Um?"

Liang Yan's expression changed, and he subconsciously cast a spell, condensing a mana barrier in front of him.

But the invisible sword was not affected by mana at all and penetrated the mana barrier without any hindrance. It also penetrated Liang Yan's heart.

"you!"

Liang Yan was shocked and hurriedly used his magic power to explore the situation inside his body.

But what surprised him was that his body was completely intact, with no sword wounds at all, as if everything that had just happened was just his imagination.

"How could this happen? You just..."

Liang Yan raised his head and looked at Fang Xi opposite him with a bewildered look.

But Fang Xi was smiling and looking at him with interest, seemingly not intending to explain.

Just when Liang Yan was confused, a bitter feeling suddenly appeared deep in his heart...

At the beginning, it was just a faint feeling.

But soon, as scenes from the past emerged in front of his eyes, this bitter feeling quickly overflowed, and finally completely submerged him like the tide of the sea!
