Chapter 28: Because She Is Bai Lian! (2)
And this power is not only composed of strength.
It also contains invincible courage!
The history of humanity is fascinating, and courage is one of the chapters that cannot be ignored, no matter the circumstance.
When disaster strikes, heroes always rise up, kindling a fire in the long night to inspire others to fight alongside them.
The disciple of Thousand Sword City gradually clenched his fist.
“I may not be a pioneer, but I can be a follower!”
His eyes remained fixed on the small world shrouded in golden light.
In this moment,
“I feel I have nothing to fear!”
He moved forward.
His Heart Sword floated out, wrapped in a layer of white light.
Under the shadow of that light, he flew toward the place where Bai Lian was fighting.
If Bai Lian is the cold moonlight, then he is just a small firefly.
But…
There are more than a few fireflies on Earth.
When more and more fireflies gather together, they too become a wonder that cannot be ignored in the long night!
…
Such a change was unexpected to Chen Fu.
He stood atop the mountain.
At one end was the vast land, where countless faint light spots were scattered sparsely. When gathered, they seemed like stars fallen from the sky.
At the other end were Gu Jiu and the little fox.
The situation was critical.
Not long ago, the little fox had sensed something unusual.
“This…”
Her eyes widened.
Bai Lian’s breath had clearly started to falter, but after a brief pause, it suddenly surged again, as if she had taken a drug.
Before the little fox could comprehend what was happening, Bai Lian had rushed deeper into the small world.
What does this mean?
The little fox couldn’t help but think back to the disaster ten thousand years ago.
No one knew better than she did the destruction caused by the Blood Demon surge!
She had witnessed many such scenes. Those who made such decisions had put their lives on the line.
The little fox gritted her teeth.
Her brother had died because of this, and her eyes began to redden at the thought.
Useless.
The Blood Demon’s reproduction rate is beyond imagination, and Bai Lian will only end up killing herself in vain.
Bai Lian is a good person. She must be stopped.
With that thought, the little fox ran.
But as soon as she did, she “leaked” her Qi.
Gu Jiu’s cultivation hadn’t been fully restored, but he immediately saw through the little fox’s true form after sensing her Qi.
She was an incredibly beautiful three-tailed fox.
Most importantly, her fur was white!
It was like dropping a bomb into deep water. Gu Jiu’s breath became confused.
A magic beast!
A white fox demon!
Gu Jiu was stunned.
He had actually saved a fox demon and taken her as his sister?!
The violent impact left him completely at a loss. He couldn’t accept this fact.
What should I do?
I must find a way to remedy this.
By the way…
I should kill her to prove my sincerity to Yu Niang!
“You think so, don’t you?”
Gu Jiu glanced down at the Heart Reading Sword in his hand.
A cold light flashed in his eyes. A moment later, he flew toward the little fox.
Although his strength was far lower than in his prime, it was enough to kill the fox demon who had deceived him.
Suddenly, a wavy sword Qi flew toward the back of the little fox.
The sudden sense of crisis made the little fox’s tail rise high.
Boom!
With a loud noise, the little fox looked back in panic and saw an “old man” standing in front of her.
It was clear that he had blocked the attack on her behalf.
“Gu Jiu,” Chen Fu sighed. “Stop making noise and come back to Thousand Sword City with me.”
Gu Jiu was silent.
He wasn’t a match for Shifu. As long as Shifu insisted on stopping him, he could not kill the fox demon.
Alas.
Chen Fu’s face was bitter.
Unlike the others in Thousand Sword City, he wasn’t captivated by the vision caused by Bai Lian.
After returning to the waterfall, he noticed that Gu Jiu was missing, and he knew something must have happened.
Sure enough, as soon as he arrived, he saw Gu Jiu raising his sword again.
He didn’t know what had transpired during this time, nor did he want to know. He just wanted to take Gu Jiu back to Thousand Sword City.
He had been obsessed with the sword all his life.
He didn’t care for the secular world and didn’t practice Taoism—he treated the sword as his companion.
He thought his life would be spent in this way.
But later, he realized he was wrong. He couldn’t throw himself into the sword like the founder of Thousand Sword City.
He was confused.
What was he alive for?
Day by day,
Chen Fu only felt loneliness.
Therefore, after saving Gu Jiu, he took him as his disciple.
Gu Jiu was his only disciple. He treated him like a son.
Chen Fu said, “Gu Jiu, it’s enough. If you continue like this, you will gain nothing and lose even more. Let go of those things, and come back to Thousand Sword City with me.”
Gu Jiu slowly raised his Heart Reading Sword.
Chen Fu sighed.
“Gu Jiu, it was me who killed you.”
If he hadn’t brought Gu Jiu to Thousand Sword City, or taught him swordsmanship, things wouldn’t have turned out this way. So many innocent magic beasts wouldn’t have been killed.
Gu Jiu’s eyes wavered.
He wasn’t a man without feelings; otherwise, he wouldn’t have fallen into an abyss from which he could never climb out.
He sometimes wondered if it would have been easier if he were a cold-blooded person.
But he couldn’t find the answer.
Gu Jiu’s lips trembled, “Shifu, I’m sorry.”
A kind smile appeared on Chen Fu’s face.
“Gu Jiu, you never have to apologize to me. Follow me back to Thousand Sword City—it’s your home. You don’t need to worry. I’ll handle everything.”
“…”
Gu Jiu knew what Shifu was planning.
He clenched the Heart Reading Sword tighter in his hand.
I can’t go back.
Though some people live to the age of 40, I died at the age of 12.
I am not a normal person.
Because unlike normal people, I don’t have a soul full of limitless possibilities.
My soul has long been shaped into a sword.
The sword is better broken than bent.
To stop a sword, you must…
Gu Jiu was silent.
In silence, several disciples of Thousand Sword City fell in beside Chen Fu and Gu Jiu.
“Martial Master Chen, what are you doing…?”
The man who spoke first fell silent. Upon seeing the little fox, he guessed what had happened here.
Maybe this is life.
Alas.
The wilderness fell silent again.
What are we doing?
The little fox behind Chen Fu stamped her foot.
She had seen Gu Jiu’s true nature, just as Bai Lian had said. But was it the right time to think about that?
She noticed that the golden light in the sky began to tremble. If she waited any longer, Bai Lian would be killed by those Blood Demons!
Bastard.
The little fox turned and left.
“Hey, where are you going?”
A disciple of Thousand Sword City stopped her.
“Go save Bai Lian!” the little fox said angrily. “I can’t watch her die.”
“Die?”
The little fox explained the situation as she walked.
“What?”
The disciples of Thousand Sword City, inspired by Bai Lian’s courage, stared in shock.
Is Bai Lian going to sacrifice herself?
No way!
“Go!”
