"Holy s.h.i.+t!" Lonemoon's heart skipped a beat . Believe in him my a.s.s! Lonemoon must have been crazy to listen to Shen Ying . Neither the master nor the disciple was reliable . "Hey, hey, hey . Yi Qing, are you still alive?" No matter how powerful he is, he couldn't have beaten Qing Yi .

"You're a true Sword Cultivator . One capable lad you are," Qing Yi said as he held his chest . He slowly got to his feet, looking at the blood-covered Yi Qing with caution . "If you were just a little bit stronger, Soul Formation- No, just late-stage Nascent Soul, I could have really died at your hands . " Yi Qing's sword had actually overcome the Red Lotus Karmic Fire . If his cultivation level wasn't this low and he had more Spiritual Power, he would have been able to maintain the Great Sword for longer than half a minute . Then, Qing Yi would really have died at his hands .

"Master…" Yi Qing's body twitched as he turned to face Shen Ying . His eyes were filled with guilt as he apologized, "I'm sorry . Your disciple has failed to take after you… I didn't… win against him . "

"Oh, don't worry . " Shen Ying scanned him, subconsciously placing her hand on his head . After pausing for a moment, she continued, "Don't worry . The a.s.signment isn't completed, but I won't deduct your marks . "

"But even my sword is…" He lifted up the broken sword in his hand . It was utterly humiliating for a Sword Cultivator to have his sword broken .

"It's nothing, actually…"

Shen Ying tilted her head and stopped talking . Qing Yi suddenly took a couple of steps toward them . Looking directly at Yi Qing, he said, "I really cannot allow you to grow stronger, otherwise you'll definitely become trouble . " As soon as the words were out of his mouth, he summoned a great Inferno Dragon . The dragon charged toward the Yi Qing, Shen Ying and Lonemoon . "Today, the three of you will die here . "

The Inferno Dragon scorched the earth in its path, focused on swallowing the three people before it . Shen Ying raised her eyebrows . With the hand that was previously on Yi Qing's head, she picked up the broken sword in Yi Qing's hand . She thrust the broken sword toward the dragon and shouted, "Shut up!"

Immediately, the earth rumbled beneath them . Qing Yi saw a ray of blinding light that seemed to span from the earth and all the way to heaven . The ray of light brushed past his sword and suddenly, the Inferno Dragon disappeared and the earth beneath his feet began to fall inward . Turning around, he saw… the entire Immortal Pavilion mystic realm had split into two!!!

(⊙_⊙) What… is this?

Loud cracking noises began to sound from all directions . Large cracks began to form in the ground, the Immortal Pavilion, and even in the sky . The ground all around them began to part as the entire mystic realm started to fall apart .

"Don't interrupt when people are speaking!" Shen Ying exclaimed, emphasising each word .

Qing Yi: "…"

What… just happened?

"Holy s.h.i.+t . " Lonemoon jumped . "Shen Ying, can you chill out? Why did you have to destroy this mystic realm?" This is terrible . It was such a rare ancient mystic realm . Now, we might not even be able to remain here .

"You're blaming me?" Shen Ying rolled her eyes . This place is clearly too fragile .

"s.h.i.+t!"

"Mas… ter?" Yi Qing stared at the sword in her hand . The sword had been broken . It couldn't be used as a weapon and yet… "How…" How did Master manage to do something so incredible with a broken sword?

"Hm?" Shen Ying followed Yi Qing's line of sight and stared at the broken sword in her hand . What's he talking about?

"Master, how are you still able to use this sword?" His eyes reflected a hunger for knowledge . He had thought the sword was useless . n.o.body would have been able to use it to do anything . "Your disciple wants to know where he is lacking . "

Shen Ying froze . Is he seeking guidance because he didn't complete his a.s.signment?

"Er…" Shen Ying coughed . She looked around for a bit before putting on a serious expression, and then replied, "Well… Swordsmans.h.i.+p is all about being one with the sword . You may not have a sword in your hands, but it doesn't matter as long as you have one in your heart . The sword is nothing but a medium . Even a flower or a branch could be your sword . "

"Pfft, what a copycat!" Lonemoon rolled his eyes . He recognised those lines from a novel right away and called her out . Have some sense of shame . "Don't listen to her, she's…"

"No sword in my hand, but a sword in my heart…"

"You can't be serious . You really believe that?" Does he have a brain?

"Be one with your sword…" Sword Qi began to surge around Yi Qing's body as Spirit Qi began to flow right into him . In seconds, his Qi was restored and the wounds on his body began to heal in front of their eyes . Even his cultivation level began to increase rapidly .

"Holy s.h.i.+t, how can this be!" F*cker, do you have to gain an epiphany even from a bunch of nonsense? You may have a screw loose, but you don't have to be this professional, right? Do you think epiphanies are like a bunch of fans surrounding you?

Σ(°△°

"Master, I understand now!" Yi Qing suppressed his epiphany as his cultivation level increased rapidly . He turned around to bow to Shen Ying and immediately flew toward Qing Yi who had been standing opposite from them .

Yi Qing was not holding any weapon in his hand, yet tens of thousands of spirit swords appeared around him . His Sword Intent was hundreds of times stronger than before; Qing Yi's Red Lotus Karmic Fire would not be able to do anything to him anymore . He had suppressed his cultivation level so that he remained at the Nascent Soul stage . Qing Yi was still a Traveling Immortal yet despite that, the two seemed to have swapped positions . Yi Qing now clearly had the upper hand against Qing Yi .

Lonemoon: "…" He felt as if he no longer understood the way this stupid world worked .

Fine . If they wanted to make a mess of things, he would wash his hands of them!

Shen Ying yawned . "I'm so sleepy! Father Niu, you keep an eye on him . I'm going to take a nap," Shen Ying suddenly said as she stretched .

"…" Sleep my a.s.s! What else do you do besides eating and sleeping? Do you really take that fellow as your disciple?

Wait a moment!

"Did you agree to let Yi Qing fight Qing Yi alone because you were too lazy to move?"

"…"

A while later…

"The weather is so good today . What should we have for lunch?"

To h.e.l.l with your hesitation! I was right, you're just f*cking lazy!

Yi Qing was out to kill this time—he took less than a minute to finish off Qing Yi . But afterwards he could suppress his cultivation level no longer as the Spirit Qi in this Immortal Pavilion was far too thick . Yi Qing's epiphany lasted only two hours, yet in this short timeframe he had advanced to the Soul Formation stage . He had caught up with Lonemoon just like that .

Lonemoon could only curse at this .

(#‵′)凸

He hadn't known he had brought along two cheats . It was enough that the master was a cheat . Who knew that the disciple would be such a cheat as well? It had only been a while yet he had grown from being a Golden Core stage cultivator to a Soul Formation stage cultivator . This was ridiculous .

Ever since Lonemoon met this master and disciple, his neat and clean idea of the immortal future was becoming increasingly messed up . Lonemoon felt as if he had only come this far because heaven was on his side .

"Master," Yi Qing called out after having recovered from his epiphany . Shen Ying had already woken up from her nap . "Thank you for your guidance . It helped your disciple make a little progress . "

"Heh heh…" Lonemoon wanted to slap the two of them . Calling this a little progress? It was more like a major milestone .

"Yeah . " Shen Ying nodded solemnly . "Can we eat now?"

"Yes Master, no problem Master!"

Lonemoon: "…" d.a.m.n this pair of r.e.t.a.r.ds!

Holy s.h.i.+t! Lonemoons heart skipped a beat . Believe in him my a.s.s! Lonemoon must have been crazy to listen to Shen Ying . Neither the master nor the disciple was reliable . Hey, hey, hey .
