156 If You Win, I’ll Be at Your Disposal

Zuo Youhuai was on the fifth peak of the Sword Pavilion, where the Sword Pavilion itself was. He looked at the first peak that had collapsed.

His eyes were empty, but his expression was heavy. His loose sleeves were fluttering in the wind.

The first peak was the most ancient and precipitous peak. It was filled with abandoned sword crafting furnaces, so no one lived there. It was a blessing in disguise.

“Pavilion Master, part of the formation used to suppress the earth fire on the third, fifth, sixth and twelfth peaks has been destroyed. The fault in the Jade Snow mountain range has become unstable, and the large amount of melting snow has caused the flood to expand. It has already washed away the sword furnace under the first peak.”

A red-haired elder of the Sword Pavilion began to report the situation. His face was serious, and there was cold sweat on his forehead. “Originally, this wasn’t a serious matter and could be suppressed by formations. However, the sword forging furnace under the twelve peaks of the Jade Snow Mountains has been continuously excavating for days and months. Especially the first peak, it has already destroyed the foundation of the entire mountain range. We have neglected this matter… The current situation is not good.”

Zuo Youhuai raised his head. Another rock fell from the ten thousand feet cliff above him, and it seemed to be on the verge of collapse. The chains were clattering in the clouds.

“Send more people to reinforce the formations of the other peaks. We can’t keep the first peak, so give up.”

Zuo Youhuai said lightly, “Those people from the demonic sect have been marked with tracking marks. Send someone to find them and kill them. The main point is the two leaders. The rest should be dead soon.”

“Yes,” the red-haired elder quickly bowed and said.

He carefully retreated and went to arrange his men. As he was giving orders, another elder came up and said, “Pavilion Master is really angry, and the people from the Demonic Church are getting more and more audacious.”

The red-haired elder spat. “The Pavilion Master isn’t angry with the Demonic Church, when have these scumbags ever been so timid? I think he’s angry at the pavilion’s conservative and self-sealing atmosphere.”

He glanced at the collapsed mountain and said, “When Pavilion Master Zuo first took over, didn’t he mention that he wanted to reorganize the first peak? The older generation insisted that it was the spirit of the Sword Pavilion and couldn’t be touched. They didn’t even allow the formation to be changed. Now, they said it was because of the demon cult, but it’s just a big tide. If it continues like this for a few more years, this peak will collapse on its own.”

“There’s also that Geng Qi. When he came over, those old fogeys often said that he’s a deviant and asked the Pavilion Master not to accept him,” the elder continued.

Another elder shook his head and said, “No matter what, the demonic sect is getting more and more arrogant. The situation is getting worse. I heard that the other sects have also been attacked by the demonic sect. I’m afraid that they will join forces to launch a third siege on the demonic sect soon.”

“Sigh, it’s really difficult to exterminate these scorpions.”

Boom!

suddenly, there was another loud noise in the Jade Snow Mountain range. The twelve peaks were shaking.

“What’s going on?”

The red-haired elder had just steadied himself and was about to fly up to check the situation when he suddenly took out the communication jade slip in his hand. after injecting spiritual energy into it. His panicked voice came over, “Elder Zhongli, not good! The earth fire and lava suddenly spurted out and completely destroyed the array!”

“Steady! You guys retreat first and save your lives, then we’ll retreat.”

Boom!

There was another loud noise, followed by a scream, and the communication talisman was destroyed.

The red-haired elder was shocked. he raised his head and looked in the direction of the Jade Snow Mountain range. Sure enough, he saw black smoke billowing up like a dragon in the middle of the endless majestic mountain range. He could also see the spectacular scene of red pillars rushing out with a loud bang.

Suddenly, another elder also took out a flashing communication ade slip, and an even more panicked voice came, “Elder, elder, bad news!”

“What is it?” The elder’s voice was trembling.

“The second wave of the White Dragon River’s current from the easternmost sea has come in advance! Soon, it will merge with the first tide and collide with the melting snow tide of the Jade Snow Mountains!”

The disciple of the Sword Pavilion swallowed his saliva and asked carefully, “Elder, can the Ten Thousand Sword Array withstand this?”

“…”

The two elders looked at each other, paused, and immediately rushed to report the situation.

“Pavilion Master!”

F*ck, after the Green Lotus Swordsman’s move, the ‘Ten Thousand Swords – Return to Origin’, the mountains can’t hold on anymore!

Shen Lin landed on the stage and shouted, “Sifan, have you forgotten your duty? Since the first generation of the Green Lotus Swordsman of the Taiqing Pavilion, it has been his responsibility to slay demons and devils. Is your cultivation from a young age going to be in vain? What’s the difference between not helping and harming others?”

Liu Yuan opened his mouth. Before he could say anything, Shen Lin had already finished what he wanted to say.

He looked at Shen Lin in despair. He cursed in his heart.

This brother-in-law… No wonder when he asked Shen Sifan who she would save if Shen Lin and himself fell into the water, she chose Liu Yuan without hesitation. There must be a kind of resentment towards her brother.

Although she said that she was willing to bear the responsibility, she was Shen Lin’s younger sister. After she had shown her talent in swordsmanship, it was hard for her to reject everyone’s expectations in the Taiqing Pavilion.

Sure enough, a trace of sadness suddenly appeared on Shen Sifan’s face. “Brother, have you not considered my feelings at all? It’s important to exterminate demons and defend the Dao, but am I not important enough to sacrifice everything for it? I’ve been cultivating for this idea for hundreds of years in the Taiqing Pavilion, but I can’t even catch the person I like. I didn’t understand it in the past, and I was determined to save the world. But now, I just want a chance to draw my sword for myself.”

“No matter what the result is, I will still be the Green Lotus Swordsman who cares about the common people in the future.”

She raised her sword, and the countless Sword Lights behind her and the shadow of the Green Lotus Sword formed a huge Lotus.

Shen Sifan’s clothes fluttered despite the lack of wind.

The Jade Snow Mountain range behind them began to erupt with terrifying energy. Flames shot up into the sky, and black smoke covered the sky, forming a thick cloud-like feeling.

There were some cultivators who were watching the show from the surroundings. When they saw this scene from afar, they all sighed in admiration at the Green Lotus Swordsman.

Duan Lanruo and Ye Cike were on high alert, while the secret guards, Li Jiutong, and the others were all ready for a fierce battle.

“What a sin.” Shen Lin mumbled. He turned around and looked at Liu Yuan. “I won’t help you, you do as you see fit!”

He looked at Duan Lanruo and Ye Cike and sneered, “You’re quite lucky with women, kid.”

After he finished speaking, he disappeared.

Liu Yuan, “…”

Buzzzzzz!

You deserve to be thrown into the water and drowned!

He turned to look at Green Lotus Swordsman and the huge lotus phantom behind her.

The surrounding mountains were still rumbling.

Shen Sifan’s eyes were cold. “That’s it. Let’s have another match. One last match. If I win, you’ll come home with me. If you win, I’ll be at your disposal.”

She raised her Green Lotus Sword and pointed the tip at Liu Yuan.

“Alright!” Liu Yuan took a deep breath.

He gestured for Duan Lanruo and Ye Cike to calm down and step back while he walked toward Shen Sifan.

Liu Yuan roughly estimated the distance and suddenly stopped halfway.

“Zhizhi!”

Buzzzzzz!

The white spots of light condensed into the shape of a young girl with a small green horn. She floated in the air, and an invisible force field suddenly unfolded, enveloping Shen Sifan.

Green Lotus Swordsman’s pupils shrank. She felt that her cultivation realm had fallen from the Void Refinement stage to the Soul Formation stage.

Coincidentally, Liu Yuan was currently at the Void Refinement stage. The Green Lotus Swordsman’s combat strength was extraordinary. The two of them were basically equal now.

Shen Sifan was stunned for a moment, then she smiled. “It seems like you’ve been planning this for a long time.”

Liu Yuan spread his hands. “I’m probably the only one in the world who knows how strong you are. If I don’t prepare well, I’m going to be killed.”

Shen Sifan clenched her sword and smiled. “Then this time, I’m going to go all out.”

Whoosh!

She took a step forward and suddenly disappeared.

Buzzzzzz!

Sparks flew, and in the blink of an eye, the swords crossed each other like a mirror or water, reflecting the equally serious eyes of the two.

The wind and clouds dispersed, and her clothes danced wildly.

Liu Yuan was familiar with Shen Sifan’s moves, and Shen Sifan was also the person who was most familiar with Liu Yuan’s PvP habits. The clanging of swords between each other even had a sense of beauty to it.

The cold was endless in the mountains.

In the hundred years of standing alone in Taiqing Pavilion, the wind and rain brushed across the eaves and rang the bells, accompanied by such a clanking sound.

Shen Sifan suddenly fell into a trance.

Buzzzzzz!

Liu Yuan’s sword stopped in front of her forehead. Shen Sifan looked up and saw the young man’s calm eyes.

Behind Liu Yuan, a flying sword that had been separated from the lotus flower was pointed at his heart.

Whoosh…

The howling wind on the sword platform blew past the two frozen figures, causing their clothes to flutter.

“I…!”

Shen Sifan pursed her lips and was about to speak when Duan Lanruo cut off the communication jade slip behind her and shouted, “The snow tide and the easternmost current have collided. They have already broken through the Ten Thousand Sword Array and are heading this way!”

Boom!

The Singing Sword Platform suddenly began to shake. The two people standing opposite each other were stunned and looked down at the stage.

The Singing Sword Platform was the northernmost part of the City of Ten Thousand Swords’ city wall, and it was also the pass guarding the White Dragon River.

When the flood arrived, the first to bear the brunt was the Singing Sword Platform.

At this moment, the few of them could clearly see the white wave that covered the sky and the earth as it came crashing over, as if it was going to shatter the world.

The first few waves that hit the Singing Sword Platform had already caused the city wall to shake, crack many lines, and stones to roll into the river.

Duan Lanruo leaped in front of the two of them and said in a low voice, “The people of the Sword Pavilion are on their way, but there are still many mortals who haven’t left…”

The citizens of the City of Ten Thousand Swords had yet to be completely evacuated, and the eruption of the earth fire and the advance of the tide had come too quickly.

“Where is Pavilion Master Zuo? He is at the Crossing Calamity stage. The power of the Water-Breaking Sword is enough to stop the tide.” Ye Cike frowned and asked in confusion.

Duan Lanruo wanted to say something, but she stopped and revealed a bitter smile.

“Pavilion Master Zuo’s internal injuries have relapsed, right? I’m afraid it’ll be difficult to continue,” Liu Yuan put away his sword, took two steps forward, and said in a deep voice.

There was a side quest to find healing pills in the game, but it seemed to be a special quest that could only be triggered by an alchemist. He did not have any impression of it, but he suddenly remembered it now.

Zuo Youhuai’s thin and haggard appearance when they first met was probably not just on the surface.

Duan Lanruo was taken aback for a moment before she nodded and said, “Yes, the Pavilion Master has been holding on. That sword strike was a warning to the evildoers, but the demonic sect’s luck is too good this time.”

To be precise, the demonic sect’s plan this time was a complete failure, but the coincidences from outside forces were even more terrifying than their plan.

Shen Sifan, who had played a part in this, was stunned, and her expression began to struggle.

The only time she had done something for herself and her personal relationship had resulted in more serious consequences, as if she was helping the demonic sect.

Boom!

Waves of the tide crashed against the Singing Sword Platform. The chains shook, and the huge sword sculpture was on the verge of collapsing.

Shen Sifan’s mind was also on the verge of collapse.

She clenched the sword in her hand. In the loud noise, the demonic barrier that had silently occupied her heart wrapped around her like vines. The idea of serving the common people that had been instilled in her heart and the Sword Intent of the past Swordsmen in the Green Lotus Sword buzzed, turning into endless whispers that lingered in her ears.

She had only wanted to be willful this time…

Liu Yuan turned his head and sharply noticed Shen Sifan’s pale expression, which carried a hint of helplessness.

She was probably planning to admit defeat just now, even though the two of them should be considered a draw in the end.

However, the Green Lotus Swordsman had already lost the moment she said ‘You can do whatever you want to me.’

But now, it seemed that a knot in her heart had been born again.

Because Liu Yuan had gone against the ideals she had always followed, she now seemed to have to take the blame for the City of Ten Thousand Swords’ crisis. she had weakened the Ten Ten Thousand Sword Array, which was equivalent to her helping the demonic sect.

Although it could only be said to be a coincidence, it had become a hurdle in her heart.

In other words, she only needed to untie this knot in her heart now. If Liu Yuan were to resolve the City of Ten Thousand Swords’ crisis, then from now on, Shen Sifan would no longer be entangled in this matter. This was because Liu Yuan was not only her personal feelings, but also her righteousness.

But the key was whether he could make good use of this opportunity.

Liu Yuan hesitated for a moment, but the hand that was holding the sword seemed to be gently held by someone. He looked down and saw a pair of beautiful translucent hands with distinct joints. It had scared him so much that he had thrown his sword away twice.

The sword spirit of Xiahou Cenyi!

There seemed to be a warm woman’s body behind him, but no one in the surroundings noticed.

The woman’s voice seemed to be right next to his ears, and her tone was firm. “I’ll help you, you just have to follow your heart.”

The tide was approaching. Liu Yuan glanced at Shen Sifan, took a deep breath, and suddenly said, “I’ll do it.”

Without waiting for the others to speak, he stepped in front of the stage and shouted, ” “Zhizhi!”

The girl nodded obediently and lowered everyone’s level by one.

Those who wanted to stop him were thrown off the stage.

Shen Sifan and the others shouted ‘no’ from below.

However, it was quickly drowned by the tide.

The melted snow on the Jade Snow Mountain range turned into a huge tide, colliding with the upflowing current from the Far East Sea. The force formed was destructive, flattening three peaks of the Sword Pavilion and destroying a section of the city wall in the north of the City of Ten Thousand Swords.

The City of Ten Thousand Swords sank three inches in the rumbling sound. All the Immortal cultivators present that day saw that the overwhelming tide was finally split by a sword at the Singing Sword Platform. It split into two streams and was then shaken apart, turning into nothing.

The sword cry did not stop for three days, and it resounded throughout the White Dragon River.

It was recorded in the 223rd issue of the Singing Sword Ranking published by the Green Centipede.

‘In the 223rd Tidewatching and Sword-listening conference, the demon cult’s plan of Jade Snow and earthly fire was exposed, and the Sword Pavilion suffered great losses. An unprecedented tide broke through the Ten Thousand Sword Array, and was finally intercepted by the sword of ‘Chasing Sun Green Shadow’ Jiang Feng, who was ranked second on the Singing Sword List.’

‘According to the rumors, during the Singing Sword contest, Duan Lanruo, the City Lord of the City of Ten Thousand Swords, Shen Sifan, the Green Lotus Swordsman, and Ye Cike, the Young Mistress of the Xuanyin family, had fought over Jiang Feng.’

‘And Jiang Feng’s identity is still in doubt. It’s said that he’s most likely Mister Junxuan, the one who caught the demon cult’s spy in Water Moon Dock and wants to marry Water Moon Dock’s true disciple, Ning Xiangrong.’
