Legend of Swordsman

Jian Wushuang's eyes flickered and he replied after a moment of silence, "Sure."

Then, she led Jian Wushuang to the seventh peak on the left.

Before the two of them reached the seventh peak, they saw a burly man with a tower-like figure pacing back and forth at the foot of the mountain. He would stop from time to time to look outside. When he saw Feng Xin Ruler walking with Jian Wushuang, a simple and honest smile appeared on his face and he ran over with large strides.

"Yi, Feng Xin, you went to the Fiery Sun Star area to fight for the fire Yuan fruit, are you alright?"

A look of loathing appeared in Ruler Feng Xin's eyes when she saw the towering man. She coldly replied, "Elder Shu Mountain, if something happened to me, would you still be able to see me?"

The iron-tower-like man who was called Elder Shu Mountain was stunned when he heard this. He scratched the back of his head in embarrassment and said, "Feng Xin, you're right."

Ruler Feng Xin's expression was cold. After making a sound of acknowledgment, she said, "Move aside, I want to return to the peak first."

Elder Shu Mountain nodded. Just as he dodged to the side and was about to ask Feng Xin to move aside, his expression suddenly changed.

"Hold on!"

"What's going on?" Ruler Feng Xin's footsteps faltered, and her brows furrowed. "Shu Mountain, what do you want now?"

The honest smile on the elder's face slowly disappeared. He looked at Jian Wushuang with an unfriendly gaze and said in a deep voice, "Feng Xin, who is this guy?"

There was no trace of the simple and honest look on his face.

Ruler Feng Xin's expression changed slightly when she heard this question. She felt a headache coming on as she thought, I knew that nothing good would come out of meeting this silly boy.

After taking a deep breath, she said with a calm expression, "This is an old friend who was specially invited by me to meet with me. Is there a problem?"

"Old friend? A gathering?"

Elder Ba Shan squinted his eyes and a glint of light flashed across his green bean-like eyes. He sized up Jian Wushuang and asked coldly, "Kid, let me ask you, what is your relationship with Elder Feng Xin? Also, the seventh peak is filled with women. Why are you going there?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Ruler Feng Xin looked at Jian Wushuang and gave him a meaningful look, hoping that he would agree with her.

Jian Wushuang looked at him indifferently and said calmly, "What does it have to do with you?"

"What does it have to do with me?"

The elder from Shu Mountain laughed in anger, he said, "Brat, elder Feng Xin is the Dao companion that the Holy Lord was prepared to give me. Do you think this has anything to do with me?"

Hearing this, Jian Wushuang was about to speak again when she raised her eyebrows and said with a frosty face, "Enough! Shu Mountain, let alone the fact that we haven't become Dao companions, even if we did, you're not allowed to interfere in my personal affairs!"

Then, she grabbed Jian Wushuang's sleeve.

"Sir Buqi, let's go!"

Ruler Feng Xin no longer paid any attention to Elder Shu Mountain. She held Jian Wushuang's hand and hurried toward the seventh peak.

Behind the two, the face of the elder from Shu Mountain, who had been knocked away by Feng Xin, instantly turned ashen.

He glared at Jian Wushuang and Ruler Feng Xin's back and clenched his fists so hard that they made cracking sounds.

"Cheap woman, just you wait, this Lord will make you submit to me sooner or later!"

A sinister look appeared on Elder Shu Mountain's face. He watched Jian Wushuang and Feng Xin's backs for a moment before he snorted and left.

When Elder Shu Mountain had walked far away, Feng Xin Ruler, who was halfway up the mountain, finally heaved a long sigh of relief. She hurriedly let go of Jian Wushuang's sleeve and said in fear and trepidation, "Your Excellency Buqi, I had no choice but to offend you just now. Please punish me."

The scene of Jian Wushuang killing everyone in the Fiery Sun Star area was still vivid in his mind.

She was afraid that Jian Wushuang would start a massacre in the Spirit Jade Holy Land if he was unhappy. If that was the case, no one in the vast spirit Jade Star area would be able to stop Jian Wushuang.

"It's fine," Jian Wushuang smiled and asked casually, "Ruler Feng Xin, that elder from the mountains just now was your Dao-companion?"

Ruler Feng Xin couldn't help but sigh. Helplessly, she said, "I can't say I'm a Dao companion, it's just that Sir Holy master acted on his own accord and betrothed me to him."

A complicated look appeared on her face as she spoke.

Jian Wushuang nodded and didn't ask any more questions. For him, he only needed to enter the innate fourth fire pool three days later and take the innate fourth fire. As for the love and hatred between the two, he didn't want to know, nor was he interested.

The seventh peak was millions of feet high. The two of them chatted as they walked up. They didn't walk fast and only reached the peak after the time for one incense stick to burn.

The seventh peak was just as the elder from Shu Mountain had said. As long as they could see the disciples, they were all valiant and heroic-looking female disciples. When they saw that the usually cold elder Feng Xin had actually brought a man into the seventh peak, their expressions were instantly filled with shock.

"Who's that man?"

"Could it be elder Feng Xin's old flame?"

"No wonder elder Feng Xin has been so reluctant to accept Elder Shu Mountain. In terms of looks, this man is indeed much better than the boorish Elder Shu Mountain. It's just that his cultivation level seems to be a little lower."

"A second-stage Ruler? Elder Feng Xin is a supreme Ultimate Ruler. This man isn't worthy of her."

One mosquito-like discussion after another rang out, causing Feng Xin's face to instantly flush red.

"So noisy! Don't you need to cultivate? You're here gossiping?"

Ruler Feng Xin's face turned grim as she spoke in a harsh voice.

Immediately, the female disciples of the Spirit Bristle Holy Land were shocked and quickly scattered.

After doing all that, Ruler Feng Xin stole a glance at Jian Wushuang. When she saw that Jian Wushuang's expression was normal and there were no fluctuations in his emotions, she could not help but sigh in relief.

However, for some reason, she felt a little disappointed.

After making a few turns, she led Jian Wushuang to a secluded hut with red walls and green tiles. The door was filled with purple bamboos. She said, "Sir Buqi, this is my room. You can rest here. I'll give an order later to not let anyone come near and disturb you. Three days later, when I'm on duty in the innate fourth fire pool, I'll lead you into the innate fourth fire pool."

"Yes."

Jian Wushuang nodded without any change in his expression.

"Then, Sir Buqi, please have a good rest here. I have to report to the sect master about what happened in the Fiery Sun Star area."

As soon as she finished speaking, she was afraid that Jian Wushuang would overthink, so she quickly added, "Sir Buqi, don't worry, I won't tell anyone about you."

"Go on."

Jian Wushuang waved his hand to show that he was fine, and then gently pushed open the wooden door of the quiet house.
