Chapter 841: Chapter 841: You’re Really Forcing Me to Say It!
Song Huonan chuckled, treating Jiang Xiaobai with extreme kindness.
Not like how he treated Su Qingchen.
Just as Jiang Xiaobai was about to sit by the stone table, suddenly, Su Qingchen cried even louder.
Her voice grew louder and louder.
Jiang Xiaobai was somewhat dumbfounded. What’s with this woman?
“Shut up!”
Song Huonan scolded sharply, “Acting improperly every day, do you think that because Xiaobai is here, he will plead for you, so you cry and shout on purpose, right?”
“No, Master, I just suddenly felt so wronged,”
Su Qingchen hurriedly shouted.
“What do you have to feel wronged about? The Taiyi Liangqing Sword Skill I asked you to cultivate, how far have you gotten with it? Hmm?”
“I told you a month ago to study it slowly to get started, and so much time has passed since then, yet you’re still the same, no progress at all.”
“Tell me, isn’t a disciple like you a disgrace to me?”
Song Huonan was beside himself with anger.
This girl doesn’t take anything seriously, and on top of that, she likes to be lazy when it comes to cultivation.
She clearly has exceptional talent but refuses to use it, always choosing to be lazy instead.
Upon hearing this, Su Qingchen immediately stopped crying.
She really didn’t dare to cry anymore.
“Alright, get up quickly. Look at you, the moment I scold you, you just sit down on the ground. What, are you bullying me, an old man, because you think I don’t dare to lay a hand on you?”
For a moment, embarrassment covered Jiang Xiaobai’s face.
Why did he suddenly feel that a formidable sect like the Purgatory God Sword Sect seemed a bit unreliable?
From top to bottom, they all seemed unreliable?
In fact, Jiang Xiaobai had guessed correctly!
The Daoist practices of the whole Purgatory God Sword Sect were closer to Taoism, believing in the law of nature!
And they explicitly recognized that under such circumstances, understanding the sword intent could be of certain help!
When a person develops towards their true self, their inner world will be infinitely magnified!
The sword heart, hence, will condense faster!
Su Qingchen pouted, stood up from the ground, and dusted off the dirt from her clothes, then flashed a mischievous smile at Jiang Xiaobai.
“Xiaobai, wait here. I’ll go make some tea for you!”
“This girl, as long as she’s not asked to cultivate, she’s willing to do anything!”
Song Huonan blew his beard and glared, looking very displeased.
Jiang Xiaobai didn’t even know what to say anymore and could only choose to keep silent.
He suddenly wondered if joining such an unreliable sect was a mistake?
“Eh? Xiaobai, did you actually manage to condense a sword heart?”
Suddenly, Song Huonan exclaimed in surprise.
As sword masters themselves, even though Jiang Xiaobai had not shown any sword intent at the moment, Song Huonan could sense something was off.
Just like Lin Zijin and the other two Sword Sect disciples, they could also easily detect that Jiang Xiaobai had condensed a sword heart.
“Yeah, by a fortunate coincidence, I condensed a small sword heart,”
Jiang Xiaobai said with a light smile.
In reality, it was two sword hearts, and these two hearts had even fused together!
“Not bad, not bad. I had felt before that you have extraordinary talent in the way of the sword, and it seems I was right,”
Song Huonan said with a smile, stroking his beard, “It looked like you hadn’t deeply researched sword intent before, correct?”
“That’s right, before this, it was all self-taught, and no one guided me on how to cultivate sword intent. I didn’t know sword intent could be so helpful to a swordsman, so I didn’t explore it,”
As these words came out, Lin Zijin, who stood by, was taken aback.
“Xiaobai, when did you start to delve into it?”
Jiang Xiaobai touched his nose, “Let’s not talk about it.”
“Come on, tell us, it’s okay. We’re all fellow sect disciples and won’t look down on you for that. Who knows, maybe we can give you some pointers later on.”
Lin Zijin spoke sincerely.
He indeed felt that Jiang Xiaobai was very much to his liking.
That’s why he thought he would help where he could.
“I think we should change the subject.”
Jiang Xiaobai touched his nose.
“What’s the matter, you’re getting shy?”
At this moment, Su Qingchen came over with a smile, carrying tea.
“Alright, fine. Actually, it’s been, roughly… um, about a month ago.”
After Jiang Xiaobai finished speaking, he tried to reach for the tea on the table.
He noticed that the air around him had started to freeze.
But the next second, Su Qingchen suddenly snatched the teacup Jiang Xiaobai was about to grab!
Then he swiftly poured it onto the ground.
“I’m off to cultivate.”
Su Qingchen said emotionlessly and then left immediately.
Lin Zijin didn’t say a word, merely fiddling with her fingers.
Seeing this, Jiang Xiaobai couldn’t help but sigh.
“See, I said let’s change the subject.”
Jiang Xiaobai looked innocent.
You guys insisted on making me say it!
And Su Qingchen, what’s the meaning of this, pouring out my tea?
Am I not worthy or what?
“Impressive, being able to form a Sword Heart in such a short time proves the strength of your sword dao talent.”
Song Huonan spoke up to ease the awkwardness, “Alright, no need to say more. You’re an inner disciple now. Same as before, if you break through and become a true immortal within three months, the position of a direct disciple is yours.”
“You have just over two months left, you need to hurry.”
Jiang Xiaobai nodded, “I understand, and that’s exactly what I plan to do.”
“That’s good, you can’t slack off just because you have a bit of talent, especially certain people.”
Crack!
Right after Song Huonan finished speaking, Su Qingchen, who had just come out with a cup in hand, planning to reestablish a friendly relationship with Jiang Xiaobai, suddenly crushed the teacup in her hand.
“I’m really off to cultivate!”
Su Qingchen snapped and turned around, pushing the courtyard door open and left!
Without looking back!
“Xiao Lin, don’t just stand there, take Xiaobai inside the sect to get a good understanding of things. You should let him know the rules, so he doesn’t accidentally violate them and suffer losses for no reason.”
Song Huonan spoke indifferently.
Lin Zijin quickly nodded and, without saying much, led Jiang Xiaobai out.
Only Huo Shuyu remained in the yard to continue chatting with Song Huonan.
Li Fugui had begun to talk about his decision to stay in the Purgatory God Sword Sect.
…
Lin Zijin led Jiang Xiaobai through many buildings within the Sword Sect, introducing them one by one.
However, her attitude was clearly cold, and she was stiff in her speech.
It was such a blow to one’s spirits!
Jiang Xiaobai forming a Sword Heart in a month?
This was rare even within the entire Purgatory God Sword Sect.
It could be said that his talent had reached an enviable level.
Lin Zijin was feeling inferior because of this!
“Senior brother, actually you…”
“It’s okay, I can handle it.”
Lin Zijin nodded, “Alright, this is the last place, the Tempering Chamber.”
“Inside, there is a special type of crystal that, with its enhancement, can help comprehend sword intent.”
“Aside from a few other places that only direct disciples can access, inner disciples can go almost everywhere.”
“Some important things, like this Tempering Chamber, require sect contributions to access. You already know about contributions—complete missions and you will be fine.”
“So, work hard, Xiaobai, and strive to surpass me!”
As she said this, for some reason, Lin Zijin suddenly felt like crying.
What do you think?
