Legend of Swordsman; Xiuhuan

The Ten Year Promise

Three months later Xiuhuan set out for the border between the Northern Kun Lun Continent and the Recifel Continent to complete the Ten Years ago promise of going to fight with Huo Guan and Ling Wentian.

These two months he spent time on Niao Island with his four children as well as Bai Xinqi and Jie Louqing, while Lou Xue did not want to come along and chose to cultivate, because Xiuhuan's cultivation level was higher than his right now. He was still at the Chaos Ancient God Realm, whereas Xiuhuan was already at the Absolute God Realm after venturing into the Dayan Continent raising his two cultivation levels.

During his time in the Blue Lotus Sect, Xiuhuan also introduced his Three Demon wives to his wives and they were very surprised, even Serea almost attacked them—because of his Demon Reflexes who hated the Devil Race so much. However, Xiuhuan explained to her that the Three were as good as any other human, so Serea finally accepted them, but her Three Demon wives remained in the Seven Seasons Pagoda, serea chose to remain in the Blue Lotus Sect because her son was already at home living there, although he actually still wanted to cultivate within Xiuhuan Rongqi.

On the way to the border close to the Ling Clan's Nan City, Xiuhuan only came alone and did not invite the Qingyun Sect disciples, either, since this was a personal grudge between him and the two great young Clan masters the black flow was.

...***...

Meanwhile at the Huo Clan Residence, Huo Guan was getting ready for the city of Nan— as he recalled the promise said by the man who snatched Huo Meigui from him to be made today.

“What young master is sure will go alone and not bring some Cultivators with you?” asked Huo Guan's right hand who was worried that he would be ambushed by the Qingyun Sect disciples.

“Hmm, what to fear? I will kill him so that Huo Meigui suffers as I have done to the man he liked first,” Huo Guan said with a thin grin on his face.

He had once killed a Huo Clan disciple whom Huo Meigui liked, once, hence Huo Meigui never fell in love with any man again until Xiuhuan suddenly appeared and changed the plan he had long put together to conquer the most beautiful woman in the Recifel Continent.

“Our eyes say that Xiuhuan has already reached the Absolute God Realm, whereas ten years ago he was still an Early Immortal realm and after entering the Dimension of Heidong he reached the Immortal Intermediate—” Unfinished he spoke suddenly Hu Guan interrupted his speech.

“Am I afraid just because he instantly rose his cultivation level? Cih, he is just trash in my eyes,” between Huo Guan staring sinisterly at his right hand, so he was forced to shut up for fear of Huo Guan getting angry.

Huo Guan instantly darted away from the Huo Clan Residence and his right hand was immediately reporting his actions to Clan Leader Huo, as he was afraid that Xiuhuan would kill Huo Guan.

Clan Chief Huo was surprised to hear that, as Huo Guan still could not forget Huo Meigui— - he should have focused on executing the plan to destroy the white flow that had been planned for thousands of years.

“Bring the Two Absolute God realm Cultivators with you and if Huo Guan has trouble fighting him, then you guys help him immediately. Lest he be killed against that Young man, if it were to lose—then, the black-flow Alliance would make fun of our Clan—for not being able to defeat the boy who had just reached the Absolute God Realm, he said,” Clan Leader Huo said with a cold facial expression. “That stupid kid is so stubborn," he muttered cursing at Huo Guan.

Huo Guan's right hand cupped his fists to show respect to the Huo Clan Chief and said, “We will ensure the safety of young master Guan!”

Meanwhile, Xiuhuan had first reached the border and he felt that there were dozens of Qingyun Sect disciples hiding not far from him using the Shield to be unknown to others, but he still felt their existence.

“Hmm, whereas the Elders of Cao Yun Sect Qingyun said they would not interfere in the case, but secretly they still sent out disciples of Chaos Ancient God realm as well, too,” mumbled Xiuhuan felt their help would be useless, if he lost to Huo Guan and Ling Wentian later, because the enemy he would face was the Absolute God Realm.

“Wah, the aura displayed by senior Xiuhuan was like that of a Great Hermit alone. Ah, why did he not fall in love with me,” said the female disciple hiding behind the Shield.

His fellow male disciples instantly grumbled, as he never praised them. However, in the mating even a lot of female students are fascinated.

The sun was beginning to set, but the two figures that Xiuhuan was waiting for had yet to appear as well, so he frowned—because this was the first time he had to wait for his enemy, though all this time he has always been a hero of bad luck.

“What is senior Xiuhuan's enemy afraid of him, so that they do not accept his challenge?” ask the female student.

“It could be, let alone that senior Xiuhuan had battle experience everywhere, even though he sometimes had to run in droves. However, that already indicates he is very great,” said the other.

Xiuhuan was even more upset when he heard their words, because their praise also meant that he was timid as well—because he had to run in a storm against a strong enemy.

“Oh, finally appeared also hehehe ..” Xiuhuan chuckled as he felt a huge spiritual energy emerge from the Ling Clan region.

Ling Wentian floated in the air staring coldly at Xiuhuan and said, “I didn't expect you to dare to appear as well. Though I suspect you will hide in Qingyun Castle forever.”

Xiuhuan frowned, when it was obvious that they had not appeared and that he had been waiting for them since sunrise and would soon sink.

“Where is the pale face?” Xiuhuan did not sense Huo Guan's existence. “What he has forgotten about Huo Meigui and gave it up for me hehehe ..” Xiuhuan chuckled mockingly at him.

“Laugh to the fullest, before you cry begging to be killed immediately, for I will not let your death go so easily. I'll slice your skin and gouge both your eyes!” threatening Ling Wentian—because it was still ringing over the death of Ling Hong who was hung on a tree and his back was carved into the Ten Years' challenge by Xiuhuan.

Back then Ling Wentian was eager to chase Xiuhuan into the Qingyun Sect and start an open war with the White Stream. However, his father forbade it because Ling Hong's status was only his right hand only and the black-flow Alliance would definitely balk at his plan. Hence, he trained hard during these Ten Years just to avenge Ling Hong's death.

“Hahahaha .. I was so scared! Rollnggng!” xiuhuan sneered with laughter at Ling Wentian's threat.

“Kill him!” ling Wentian exclaimed at the Ten Absolute God Clan Ling realm Cultivators who had come with him.

Those ten Ling Clan Cultivators immediately darted towards Xiuhuan and carried out their strongest attacks together, so the Qingyun Sect disciples who noticed the fight were shocked to see it, so, for not expecting the Ling Clan to send out a powerful Cultivator just to cripple Xiuhuan alone.
