“Equivalent to which level of the Condensation Spirit Realm?” Fang Wang asked, his tone carrying a hint of expectation.

He had been holding back for too long and wanted to let loose!

It just so happened that the person before him was his new master’s nemesis; there would be no injustice in killing him!

The Sword Saint furrowed his brow and said, “Roughly equivalent to the fourth or fifth level of the Condensation Spirit Realm, disciple. Do not act rashly. Although you have already grasped the Celestial Sword Intent, it is precisely because your talent and comprehension are so inconceivable that you need to be even more careful in your actions. As long as you stay alive, the heights you will reach in the future are far beyond what you can currently imagine.”

By the end, due to being too agitated, he couldn’t help but start coughing again.

Fang Wang could only relent, saying, “Alright, Master, I’ll listen to you, please don’t worry.”

At this moment, the Sword Saint was already at the end of his tether, so it was not good for Fang Wang to go against his wishes.

“The Great Demon King has been deterred by me and won’t dare to make a strong move in the short term. After two days, you come back in, take Yu Han, and leave… I want to rest now.”

After finishing his words, the Sword Saint slowly closed his eyes. His hunched back made his whole person seem to curl up, showing a sense of vicissitude and desolation.

Fang Wang put the Sword Monarch Order into his storage bag, then bowed to the Sword Saint and turned to leave.

After he left the pavilion, he closed the door behind him.

Just as he stepped down the stairs, he suddenly saw a figure standing on the lake surface—it was that eerily beautiful man, clad in black clothes that fluttered with the lake breeze, with his long hair billowing similarly. Even in broad daylight, he appeared frightfully terrifying.

The eerily beautiful man stared at Fang Wang expressionlessly.

Fang Wang was not afraid at all, striding forward to the bridgehead where he sat down, facing the eerily beautiful man.

Fang Wang took out the Qiankun Fan and gently waved it, appreciating the scenery of the lake surface without cultivating.

Xiao Zi, sensing Fang Wang’s attitude, wriggled out from his embrace and coiled around his shoulder, with its snakehead pointed towards the eerily beautiful man, continuously flicking its tongue.

Seeing Fang Wang so confident, the eerily beautiful man furrowed his brow.

After watching for a while, the eerily beautiful man silently retreated backwards, disappearing into the dense fog.

“Young Master, you are really powerful now, even the Great Demon King can be scared away,” Xiao Zi said in an admiring tone.

Fang Wang replied calmly, “He’s not afraid of me, but of my master.”

The time spent cultivating Celestial Sword Intent proved how powerful the Sword Saint’s Sword Dao was. Second only to the True Combat Technique, it showed that, in terms of Sword Dao alone, the Sword Saint was comparable to the Great Saint’s mastery of the Dao.

Of course, Fang Wang didn’t understand the Great Saint, but such a comparison was enough to make him revere the Sword Saint.

The Sword Saint was definitely the strongest individual he had encountered in this world.

Within the Grand Qi Cultivation Realm ruled by the Nine Great Sects, there still existed many powerful cultivators, and the world beyond the Grand Qi Cultivation Realm was even more vast and boundless. Thinking of this, Fang Wang’s heart surged with excitement.

If one could stand at the pinnacle of the Mortal Realm, what kind of splendor would be seen?

As Fang Wang pondered, he also felt the Sword Intent of Sword Heaven Marsh.

Since achieving Great Perfection with the Celestial Sword Intent, his world had utterly transformed. All things had their own will, and even the Spiritual Energy from the surrounding objects, like the rocks by the lake, served this Celestial Sword Intent for his use.

Xiao Zi lay on his shoulder, vaguely sensing something and following Fang Wang’s lead, it too settled into deep concentration.

…

Two days passed quickly.

Approaching noon.

Fang Wang suddenly felt something and stood up, turning to look towards the pavilion behind him.

Xiao Zi, perched on his shoulder, also opened its eyes, muttering, “Such strong Sword Qi…”

Fang Wang’s smile grew, knowing that with the Sword Saint’s Sword Qi, Fang Hanyu had obtained not only a higher grade Lifespirit Treasure but his cultivation would inevitably surge dramatically, a true rebirth.

Even the Sword Qi currently revealed, although nowhere near the Sword Saint’s, felt sufficient to deal with cultivators at the lower levels of the Profound Heart Realm.

Fang Wang felt reassured; with Fang Hanyu growing stronger, the Fang Family would be even more secure. He himself was busy with cultivation, and Zhou Xue had her own matters to attend to, so it was always good to have someone to protect the Fang Family.

Boom!

The Sword Qi inside the pavilion burst forth suddenly, blowing open the eaves, as a figure soared into the sky, with a pillar of Sword Qi reaching straight to the heavens.

Fang Wang focused his gaze and saw within the pillar of Sword Qi the suspended silhouette of Fang Hanyu. Hovering a hundred zhang in the air, a sword floated above his head, an ordinary-looking sword, simple in design. Yet, it was this very sword that emitted the awe-inspiring Sword Qi that moved heaven and earth.

Surrounding mountains trembled as the lake surface erupted in tidal waves, a testament to the terror of the Sword Saint’s Sword Qi.

Fang Hanyu’s face was unbandaged, revealing his eyes, blue with blood pupils, wide open like a demon possessed, and emitting an indescribable aura of murder.

Fang Wang slightly raised an eyebrow; the torture Fang Hanyu had endured in Green Cicada Valley seemed to have a profound impact on him that had not yet dissipated, and that murderous nature had become imprinted in his bones.

Simultaneously, waves of powerful auras approached from all directions. The eerily beautiful man and his subordinates arrived first, followed by the Sword Saint’s Sword Servants, and even Gu Tianxiong came walking on water.

Now, there were no fewer than five or six hundred Sword Cultivators at Sword Heaven Marsh, the least of whom was in the Spiritual Refinement Realm, and there were twenty to thirty in the Profound Heart Realm, all renowned cultivators.

More and more cultivators arrived, all of them looking up at Fang Hanyu with various expressions, making no rash moves.

“Who is that?”

“Such powerful Sword Qi, what kind of Lifespirit Treasure is that?”

“Wait, isn’t that the Sword Saint’s Sword Qi?”

“Why does he possess the Sword Saint’s Sword Qi?”

“Could it be that he has received the Sword Saint’s legacy? I remember him; he participated in the legacy trials before…”

The cultivators buzzed with speculation, and when someone guessed that Fang Hanyu had received the Sword Saint’s legacy, they instantly became agitated, some with malevolent intentions in their gazes towards Fang Hanyu.

At that moment, Fang Hanyu hovered midair, his eyes open but clearly not fully conscious yet. Spiritual energy from nature funneled towards him, concentrating between him and the sword.

Gu Tianxiong approached Fang Wang and, out of curiosity, asked, “Brother, what happened?”

Fang Wang was about to answer when a cry of alarm sounded, its tone clearly grinding.

“Fang Wang!”

The name Fang Wang seemed to possess a certain magic, drawing all the cultivators to instinctively look towards the speaker, only to see Song Jinyuan standing by the lake, grinding his teeth in frustration as he stared at Fang Wang.

Following Song Jinyuan’s gaze, everyone turned to look at Fang Wang again.

Gu Tianxiong frowned and bellowed, “I’m not Fang Wang, you hear me!”

No sooner had he finished speaking when something seemed to dawn on him, and he suddenly turned his head to look at Fang Wang, his eyes widening in realization.

Fang Wang let out a sigh. It seemed he could no longer keep his identity hidden.

If he couldn’t keep it hidden, so be it!

A true man should act with integrity. He used to be too weak, but now there was nothing he feared!

Fang Wang nodded towards Song Jinyuan, a gesture of courtesy, before turning his gaze back to Fang Hanyu in the sky.

Fang Hanyu could be seen slowly raising his right hand to grasp the hilt of the sword above his head.

“That might be the divine sword of the Sword Saint; we can’t let him get his hands on it!” someone exclaimed, drawing everyone’s attention back to Fang Hanyu.

Immediately, some cultivators soared upwards, their swords propelling them toward Fang Hanyu.

With one taking the lead, even more cultivators rushed forward. At a glance, there were at least fifty of them.

Boom!

An overbearing and unparalleled aura suddenly burst forth, shattering the wooden bridge beneath Fang Wang’s feet. Gu Tianxiong was so startled that he staggered and almost fell into the lake.

The cultivators who were advancing all stopped in their tracks, their faces filled with horror and disbelief as they looked at the swords in their hands and under their feet.

Then, they all turned to look at Fang Wang, even the demon-like man on the surface of the lake frowned as he looked towards Fang Wang.

Surrounding Fang Wang was a terrifying sword intent that caused the very space to tremble. His sword intent enveloped the Sword Heaven Marsh in an instant. Although no sword qi was visible, everyone felt as if it surrounded them on all sides, threatening to reduce them to dust with the slightest movement, a chilling sensation that set their hair on end.

“Celestial Sword Intent!” the demon-like man stated, enunciating each word.

Fang Wang’s gaze never wavered from Fang Hanyu. He slowly said, “No one act rashly. He is my brother. Whoever dares to harm him will die.”

Under the enhancement of the all-encompassing sword intent, his voice echoed above Sword Heaven Marsh, unceasingly reverberating and startling everyone.

What kind of sword intent was this?

Aside from the demon-like man, including the Sword Servants, no one had truly experienced the Sword Saint’s sword intent, so they were all filled with fear.

One man’s sword intent subdued hundreds of sword cultivators!

With the display of sword intent, the world fell silent!

In the attic.

The Sword Saint slowly looked up, his cloudy eyes expressing a smile as he murmured, “Great Completion of Celestial Sword Intent… No, he has surpassed me… Dual Destiny Heavenly Origin… such unimaginable comprehension in the Sword Dao, truly a person of destiny… This is indeed my greatest fortune…”

His voice trailed off intermittently, and finally, his head dropped suddenly, his arms naturally falling to his sides.

…

Gu Tianxiong looked at Fang Wang, dazed, as though he was in a dream.

His little brother Zhou Yu was the famed Fang Wang?

The genius that his daughter often mentioned in her letters?

Feeling his gaze, Fang Wang turned to look at him, and with a slight smile said, “Do not panic, Brother Gu. If you hold still, I won’t kill you.”

Despite the absence of any killing intent and a voice that was already very gentle, it still made Gu Tianxiong’s skin crawl with fear.

“Hehe, who would have thought the Sword Saint would have a disciple,” said the demon-like man, his tone ice-cold.

He walked towards Fang Wang, his black demonic qi spreading and tumultuously churning as if resisting Fang Wang’s Celestial Sword Intent.

As his Demonic Qi erupted, most of the sword cultivators were visibly affected.

Such a terrifying Demonic Qi!

That guy must be a demon!

Song Jinyuan paid no attention to the demon-like man; his gaze was fixed dully on Fang Wang.

At that moment, his mind went blank.

Fang Wang’s figure began to merge with the image of his master in his eyes.

“Why… How could he learn it…” Song Jinyuan thought desperately; he couldn’t even feel jealous because the gap between them was too vast.

Fang Wang turned around to face the demon-like man approaching from across the lake. Behind the demon-like man, those eighteen individuals also emitted Demonic Qi, their faces transforming into monstrous and frightful visages.

Strange Demonic Qi, like a swift black fog, spread over the entire lake, dispersing the mist formed by the Spiritual Energy.

Fang Wang held the Qiankun Fan in his right hand, waving it slightly, displaying the demeanor of Zhou Yu with his feather fan and silk scarf. Facing the Great Demon King, he was entirely unfazed, his eyes even revealing a look of anticipation.

“Master, destroy him!” Xiao Zi couldn’t help but cry out from Fang Wang’s shoulder, her timid voice stirring Gu Tianxiong awake from his stupor, as he looked at her in astonishment.

So this was a female demon!

Thinking back on what he had said to Fang Wang, Gu Tianxiong’s face turned beet red.
