Chapter 137: 137

Chapter 137 – In the Camp

Xi He didn’t return to the hut until Beiming Youyu disappeared from sight and her aura disappeared from her perception .

“I’m the only one left . ”

She blurted out unconsciously .

She actually wants soone to be with her, she really does . The burden on her shoulders is really heavy, it’s so heavy that she would like to find soone to share it with her .

But she knows that if she really asks soone to share it with her, to be frank, it’ll just be selfish of her . What’s more, in the entire Martial Demon Realm, who can bear this burden alongside her?

In fact, she can ignore everything that is going to happen in Martial Demon Realm . After all, no matter how noisy it gets on the periphery, it can’t affect her who is living in the depths of Martial Demon Realm .

However, she doesn’t want to see that tragic scene again .

The bloody killing, the rciless devastation, and the bitter crying that follows .

She doesn’t want to see it again .

Therefore, she made up her mind to defend this forest that is her holand .

At all cost .

After making up her mind once again, Xi He ca to the table in order to tidy up things .

Consequently, she found out that...

“Xi He, I know that you want to trap that gal with your innate skill, but she is proficient in unorthodox arts . I’m afraid you won’t succeed . Although I don’t know if it’ll work, but you can...”

There are beautiful words that give off a sense of vicissitudes of life carved on the table . They were carved with true qi .

Stroking the words carved on the table, Xi He uttered, in a daze: “Big Sister Beiming, I have received your power . ”

*

A raging campfire is swaying and crackling .

Bathed in the light of the fire, the warmth is just right to summon the Sandman . Xue Qilin yawned, and tears appeared in the corners of her eyes . The black cat-shaped Phecda is already sleeping in her arms, curled up .

Xue Qilin often mocks Phecda, saying that she is this drowsy because she beca a black cat .

However, in fact, this is only the case because maintaining Transfiguration around the clock consus too much physical strength . Just like using martial arts, it not only consus true qi, but also consus physical strength . The sa is true for spells .

At the other end of the campfire, Shui Yun’er is practicing magic . There is a stream of water flowing along her arm, towards her palm, and shuttling between the slander fingers, as if it has a life of its own .

This is a ga to exercise magic control .

When Xue Qilin just started studying magic, she fell in love with this ga . While practicing cultivation deep in the mountains, this ga could not only pass the ti, but it also served as an exercise, and so it gradually beca the thing she likes to do in her spare ti .

However, after she finished studying magic and went down the mountain, due to the many temptations of the outside world, she gradually abandoned this ga that has accompanied her for more than 10 years .

Xue Qilin yawned again . She simply lay flat on the ground and looked out of the camp, bored .

“What, their practicing the sword...”

From between the cloth curtains, she can see Gong Tianqing and the Nangong siblings practicing by the lake .

After watching for a while, Xue Qilin sighed in admiration .

“I didn’t expect... Little Qing to be this amazing . ”

Holding two swords “Heavenly Yin” and “Heavenly Yang” in her hands, Gong Tianqing is dexterously dealing with attacks coming from both sides .

Due to Nangong Mingming’s qi school aptitude, Xue Qilin processed her initiate short sword with magic and engraved a magic array on it, turning it into a dium for magic . As long as Nangong Mingming injects true qi into the short sword and activates the spell engraved on the sword body, she can construct a variety of true qi swords based on the short sword with her will, which can be said that she has mastered a simplified version of condensing qi into swords .

Now she is using qi swords to release a flurry of attacks barreling towards Gong Tianqing from different directions .

Compared to his sister, Nangong Mingye’s attacks are much more crude . The purple broad sword in his hands is slashing towards Gong Tianqing with wide movents .

Perhaps it is the bloodline bond at play, but the Nangong siblings cooperate very well . If one of them attacks, the other will restrain the opponent, making it difficult for the opponent to fight back .

Despite this, Gong Tianqing still seems to be at ease .

It’s like she’s a different person .

Brandishing both swords tidily, whether it is repelling attacks or counterattacking, it is perfectly accurate and has a certain sense of beauty .

Is this really Gong Tianqing? Xue Qilin couldn’t help but doubt her eyes .

“You mustn’t judge Junior Disciple Sister Gong by her usually timid deanor...”

Noticing Xue Qilin’s surprise, Shui Yun’er looked away from the flow of water that depicts various lines and focused on her .

“She is the strongest Human Realm disciple in rak Temple . ”

“What!”

Xue Qilin exclaid, incredulous . It took a lot of effort for her to swallow the words “how is this possible” .

Shui Yun’er covered her mouth with a hand and giggled twice .

“Is it hard to believe? Junior Disciple Sister Gong seems very timid, like a small animal . ”

Xue Qilin nodded her head in agreent .

But... As if her face is expressing this word, Shui Yun’er turned her head to look at Gong Tianqing who had just leaned sideways to avoid a slash .

“She is actually very strong... both in terms of martial arts and heart . Young Teacher, can you imagine a person who looks this cowardly to have such a superb swordsmanship . ”

With a slight admiration on her face, Shui Yun’er assessed with a sigh .

“People can’t be asured by their appearance . A long ti ago, soone once said to , ‘it is not power but the heart that makes a person strong’ . I seem to understand it a little now . A formidable power may give you a lot, but it can’t equip your heart . ”

What dazzles people’s eyes is not a Grandmaster’s radiance, but the image of a person pursuing sothing wholeheartedly .

Xue Qilin appears to be moved . At the sa ti, she asked herself “am I a strong person?”

There is no answer, she has no answer .

“So people seem strong, but in fact are extrely frail . ”

The self-deprecating expression Shui Yun’er assud on her face seems to be saying “just like ” .

Her inability to trust others ultimately culminated in a catastrophe, hurting people who cared about her – this way, Shui Yun’er may be really weak .

However, I who am always afraid of repeating the sa mistake am not much better than her . Xue Qilin thought .

“Young Ancestor, ... Shui” Qian Duoduo who is using the camp fire to cook at soup looked at Shui Yun’er and scratched his head, “I don’t know how to address you . ”

He may not have been able to adapt to Shui Yun’er’s change in seniority yet .

“Senior Disciple Brother Qian, I don’t think you need to care too much about seniority . No matter experience or cultivation base, you’re ahead of in both . ”

Putting experience aside, it’s hard to predict who’d win if Qian Duoduo and Shui Yun’er fought .

Although Qian Duoduo’s cultivation base is already approaching the Earth Realm, but Shui Yun’er changed to cultivating magic and replaced qi passageways with “magic lines” to serve as a path for true qi to circulate according to the cultivation thod . Since this is the case, it is difficult to asure her true strength by relying on notion of realm . Therefore, not even Xue Qilin can tell if she can beat Qian Duoduo when going all out .

Without dwelling on it a long ti, Qian Duoduo laughed straightforwardly .

“Then I’ll respectfully oblige and call you Senior Disciple Sister Shui . ”

“Actually, you can call Junior Disciple Sister Shui like before . ”

“That won’t do . Calling you Senior Disciple Sister already breaches several degrees of seniority . It is too much of a stretch to call you Junior Disciple Sister . ”

Qian Duoduo waved his hands and Shui Yuner smiled helplessly .

“Then I’ll comply with you, Senior Disciple Brother Qian... Junior Disciple Brother Qian . ”

Seeing that they are as embarrassed as a young couple who just started dating, Xue Qilin, who has never been in a relationship, is a bit upset .
