    Chapter Index

    “Well, it’s been practiced twenty times.”

    “Let’s go eat, I’m starving.”

    “Of course I’m hungry, you haven’t eaten in three days.”

    “What? Three days?”

    “Yes, you have been practicing for three days and three nights.”

    “Me?”

    “You came to me three days ago, and you seemed to have entered the realm of forgetfulness, so I didn’t disturb you.”

    I was shocked, I felt like I had only been practicing for a few hours, how could it be three days?

    “Am I asleep?”

    “I checked, you’re not asleep, and you’ve been talking to yourself.”

    It seemed that I had really entered the realm of forgetfulness, and I didn’t remember what I had practiced at all.

    “Wait.”

    I sat down on my knees and ran the Heavenly Demon Body Protecting Technique, and I felt my true qi running more smoothly and freely.

    I stood up with a smile on my face, my Heavenly Demon Body Protecting Technique, a breakthrough. It seems that this period of cultivation has finally borne fruit.

    “You broke through?”

    Liam could tell by the look on my face that I had changed. I smiled and nodded.

    “I’m going to treat you to a nice meal.”

    “Congratulations, Sword Wuji.”

    “Thank you, Liam.”

    “Why are you thanking me?”

    “If you hadn’t insisted on finishing your practice, I wouldn’t have entered the realm of forgetfulness.”

    “Ah, then you’ll have to treat me to a big meal!”

    “No problem, I’ll buy you anything you want to eat!”

    We left the practice field.

    “You’re hungry too, aren’t you?”

    “No, I’ve already eaten.”

    But her stomach rumbled.

    There’s no way she would have eaten by herself while I was hungry and practicing, she should have not eaten or practiced so as not to disturb me.

    “You fool.”

    “I’m not stupid, if I was really stupid I wouldn’t have let you hear my stomach growl on purpose. I’m showing you my loyalty, that’s a plus.”

    “You little fox.”

    I laughed and shook my head.

    “It’s been a long time since we’ve taken a walk together.”

    “Yeah.”

    “That’s nice.”

    It warmed my heart when she said, “That’s nice.” I feel good too, Liam.

    We arrived at the Windrush House in Majestic Village.

    “Welcome! Sword Sheriff, it’s been a long time.”

    The owner, Zhao Chunpei, greeted us warmly, and I smelled the aroma of the meal, making me even hungrier.

    “Serve!”

    “Okay, I’m on my way!”

    Zhao Chunpei finished speaking and ran into the kitchen.

    We started with a glass of wine.

    “Ahh! That was awesome!”

    “Ouch! So hot, I’m dying.”

    The food was served quickly and we gobbled it up.

    After we had our fill of wine and food, we started talking about martial arts. Liam asked me a lot of questions and I answered them all.

    My Bitian Sword Technique, after breaking through ten percent of my power, has been stagnant, and I’m hoping that the New Eye Technique can help me break through the bottleneck.

    As we chatted, we got to talking about Xu Da Long.

    “By the way, how is Lord Xu doing?”

    “He should be fine, I’ve been practicing lately and haven’t had time to visit him.”

    “Everyone’s so busy.”

    “I’m sure he’ll be able to juggle work and practice.”

    “It’s unbelievable that Lord Xu was able to get along so well with the Blood Heavenly Blade Demon senior.”

    “Who knows? Maybe, he’s in tears every night.”

    Liam laughed out loud.

    “It won’t be, I think that Elder Blood Heavenly Blade Demon is quite nice.”

    “Don’t take it lightly, just because he’s nice to Xu DaLong doesn’t mean he’s nice to you, he’s a Demon Lord, you have to be careful.”

    “I know, I’ll keep an eye on it.”

    “You’re going to have to beat him, someday.”

    Liam froze.

    “Me? Beat him?”

    She didn’t say “How could I possibly defeat the Demonfather” like she did before, because she had already started practicing the Bitian Sword Technique, and if she said that again, she would be disrespecting me and my father.

    “I’ll try.”

    “You have to remember that half-assed martial arts are the easiest way to die, and since you’ve chosen this path, you must go all the way to the end.”

    “Yes!”

    I raised my glass, and Liam raised his, and we drank it down.

    “After you cultivate the Bitian Sword Technique to a certain realm, we can recruit the members of the Ghost Shadow Team, as long as we find a few captain level experts, the rest will be easy.”

    “Do you already have a suitable candidate?”

    I nodded.

    “There are a few, and when the time is right, we’ll recruit them.”

    “Who is it?”

    “Telling you now will only scare you, I’ll tell you when the time is right.”

    “The more you say that, the more curious I am.”

    “Drink. Drinking is a relief.”

    We clinked our glasses with a crisp clink, and our moods, like the wine, were relaxed and happy.

    “Boss, another pot of wine and a few more dishes.”

    “I’m sorry, we’re going back early today.”

    I nudged toward the stairs, and Liam followed my gaze.

    Xu Dalong hurried upstairs with news, news that forced us to end the drinking game early.

    “Sect Leader Feng Tian, we’ve already arrived at the Demon Sect’s main altar.”
