In the following days, Li Xiuyuan followed the Master and learned how to attach the true energy to the strings of the piano and turn it into sword energy as a means of attack. He began his own practice of using the piano as a sword.
Although he had been able to use a string as a sword before, it was only occasionally, and he was not yet able to turn a string into a sword.
If you can cultivate your true energy to the point where it can be used as a means of attack at any time, it can also be used to save your life in critical moments.
In this way, he can also consider going to the Weapon Refining Pavilion to cast an iron harp, which would increase its power to a higher level.
Nangong Ruyu was not idle either. She pestered Li Xiuyuan to practice swordplay with him every day. Later, Bian Qingying also joined in because she found it to be a fun game.
For a time, war raged on Wangyue Stream.
Nangong Ruyu and Qingying waved their little hands and wings, and pine needles and leaves all over the sky flew towards Li Xiuyuan. Li Xiuyuan sat under the tree, holding an iron sword in his hand, and he was very busy releasing his spiritual consciousness to fight against the flying swords all over the sky.
When he was at his worst, his hands and face were covered with pine needles and bamboo leaves. Fortunately, his skin was thick and these pine needles couldn't hurt him.
But one person and one eagle are not easy to live with. Nangong Ruyu was shot with pine needles and screamed. Qingying jumped up and flew into the sky while cursing: "Li Xiuyuan, you are unreasonable."
Li Xiuyuan smiled and said: "You also saw it, you are more ruthless, I also suffered a lot, okay?"
Nangong Ruyu was as angry as Qingying because her skirt was also pricked by the pine needles flying out by Li Xiuyuan. She couldn't help shouting: "Master, you damaged Yu'er's skirt. I want you to pay for it."
Li Xiuyuan nodded and smiled: "I will give you gold coins another day, and you go down the mountain to buy them. However, you have to think about it, if you were fighting with your opponent at this time, would you have been stabbed by dozens or hundreds of swords? "
Nangong Ruyu lowered her head and looked at her skirt. After a while, she took a deep breath and replied: "Is there such a powerful opponent in this world? There are not thousands of people..."
Upon hearing this, Li Xiuyuan shook his head, looked at the sky and said calmly: "Who said there are not thousands of people? The Shura battlefield will open in a few years. If you can't do this, I advise you not to go in then. "
Nangong Ruyu and Qingying were stunned after hearing this, looked at Li Xiuyuan and asked: "I will follow you then, won't it be done?"
"It is said that there are several kingdoms in the Shura Realm, and there are countless young geniuses from the sects. Masters of the distraction realm are everywhere, so naturally there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers. However, I only represent myself when I go there, and I will not mix with a kingdom or a sect. Together."
The woman in white sitting under the eaves felt a thump in her heart. The first time she heard it from the Master, and the second time she heard from Li Xiuyuan that he was only going to the Shura battlefield on his behalf, she couldn't help but be frightened.
What kind of young man is this, and what kind of strong state of mind does he have?
As far as she knew, there was no cultivator in the Shura Realm who dared to say that he was going to the Shura battlefield alone. After all, it would be a hell on earth, and she might not let her daughter go there.
Li Xiuyuan first refused to fight on behalf of the academy, and now he once again refused his daughter's invitation.
Li Xiuyuan, who are you? How amazing are you?
The young man in front of him, the woman in white, wanted to get into his body and read his heart.
Only Qingying knew what Li Xiuyuan was thinking, and she wasn't afraid that this guy wouldn't take her with him. After all, the teacher wants this world, and then she, he and Li Xiuyuan will be left to depend on each other.
"You are too selfish, Master." Nangong Ruyu looked at him and yelled: "Master, can you bear to be bullied by others?"
Qingying looked back at her, lowered his head and retracted his wings. Silence at this time was the best choice.
Waving his hand and knocking the pine needles stuck to his clothes to the ground, Li Xiuyuan said calmly: "I don't belong to any sect, and I don't owe anyone in this world."
Having said this, Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but raise his hands to the master under the eaves and said with a smile: "Even if it's my teacher, I won't participate on his behalf! No one in this world is worthy of my sacrifice, and the same goes for the academy!"
"Xiu Yuan doesn't have to be like this." The Master smiled and shook his head, looked at him and said, "You just need to remember: the world is huge and there are so many practitioners. Except for your parents, no one is worth your efforts."
Having said this, the Master then smiled and said: "Except for my precious disciples, you have to keep an eye on me."
After hearing what the master said, Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but glance at Qingying and laughed loudly: "Wei Qing has become a disciple of the dean. From now on, he will be a student of the academy. What does it have to do with me."
Bu Qingying, who had his eyes closed, couldn't help but laugh secretly when he heard this. He thought that this guy was smart and knew how to tell himself that he would listen to his master and take care of himself.
The woman in white heard the conversation between the master and the apprentice, and felt a shocking wave of emotions in her heart.
What kind of master-disciple pair is this? One disciple clearly stated that he would not enter the battlefield on behalf of the teacher, and the other warned his disciple not to sacrifice for anyone, including himself.
Could it be that the old man in front of me has another way to reach heaven?
Thinking of this, the woman in white couldn't help but be shocked. She had already looked up to the master and apprentice, but she didn't expect that these two guys were more terrifying than she imagined.
As the saying goes, ignorant people are fearless, but the two people in front of them were obviously not such people.
Don't you have more to rely on? Could it be that the old man in front of him cannot ascend until the Shura battlefield begins?
Otherwise, why would he warn his disciples not to sacrifice for others?
"The academy will also send students to participate when the time comes. Aren't you going to enter with them?" the woman in white asked with a frown.
The master smiled bitterly. As Li Xiuyuan's teacher and an old man who was about to leave this world, how could he not know what Li Xiuyuan was thinking? No matter what the woman in front of him said cleverly, Li Xiuyuan would not be moved by it.
After all, he is still a friend of the Demon Realm, the Demon Realm, and the Da Chu Kingdom. What the Master had to do was to warn him not to join any team.
"I have friends in the Demon Realm, I also have friends in the Demon Realm, and I have two friends in Dachu. If they all send invitations to me, which side should I join?"
Li Xiuyuan noticed something strange about Nangong Ruyu, so he quickly changed the topic and said with a smile: "So, when the teacher told me that the Shura battlefield was about to start, I told him that I would not make a choice."
Hearing the word Demon Realm, the woman in white's expression became solemn and serious, and said: "Don't forget, you still have a life-and-death enemy in the Demon Realm."
"So what? Kindness is kindness and resentment is resentment. I, Li Xiuyuan, still know this clearly. If Jun Buyu from the Demon Realm insists on quarreling with me, I can choose to give up on him as a friend."
For Li Xiuyuan, he has never been a fool who gave up his own principles for the sake of his friends.
"Whether it's the Great Chu or the Academy, whether it's the Demon Realm or the Monster Realm, the disciples in them are my friends or even brothers, but there's no way they can make me sacrifice my life for them."
Looking up at the sky, Li Xiuyuan said every word seriously.
At the same time, he is also telling the owner of Taoyuan in front of him that he can teach your daughter more skills, but he will not prepare the battlefield for you to fight.
"For me, Shura battlefield has no friends, only enemies!!"
Pointing his finger to the sky, Li Xiuyuan spoke his heart out to the sky!
I seek the way to heaven, and for this goal, I will not approach anyone. Anyone who stands in my way is my enemy, and I can kill them all with one sword.
The master squinted his eyes, as if he was recalling something, and said quietly: "The old Taoist priest has left you. You have to think that the purpose of your life is to go to another world to find him."
The Master didn't ask Li Xiuyuan to find him, because the woman in white and Nangong Ruyu were still in sight.
"This... what will Yu'er do then?" Nangong Ruyu thought about it and felt that there was nothing wrong with this method of inviting Li Xiuyuan to form a team. Taking it literally, it seemed that there was something more... Be more direct.
"No matter what level of cultivation you have reached, I advise you not to set foot on the Shura battlefield?"
Li Xiuyuan and Nangong Ruyu said quietly.
"Why?" the woman in white asked.
"Why?" Nangong Ruyu asked.
Li Xiuyuan warned with a serious expression: "Because you don't have murderous intent in your heart! How can you bear entering that hell on earth? There is only one outcome, and that is to fall under your opponent's sword in a few days."
"Don't think that your teammates can protect you!" Li Xiuyuan paid attention to his tone and said coldly: "Because by that time, they may not even have the ability to protect themselves!"
"Live well and wait until I walk out of the Shura battlefield. If you are still alive at that time... maybe I will see the fate of this day and give you an opportunity that belongs only to you!"
For some reason, Li Xiuyuan couldn't bear to reject the woman in front of him who called him master. Because there was always a looming voice in his mind telling him: "Keep her!"
"That was a very cruel thing indeed."
The woman in white looked at Li Xiuyuan blankly, imagining the murderous scenes that would happen on the Shura battlefield many years later. It is true that his daughter cannot go to the battlefield. As Li Xiuyuan said, Nangong Ruyu has no murderous intention.
The own daughter of the Five Domains Dynasty has always been with the national master, and it is not her turn to take action in everything. After coming to Shura Heaven, she didn't need to do anything anymore.
It wasn't until this moment that the woman in white realized that she had pampered Nangong Ruyu like a flower in the greenhouse.
Thinking of this, the woman in white looked at Li Xiuyuan and murmured: "It seems that we really can't let Yu'er go to the Shura battlefield. Why didn't I think of this before?"
Li Ye replied calmly: "That's because you are too strong! So strong that you don't need to be afraid of the enemies in front of you! But there are restrictions on the Shura battlefield, and you can't go there!"
The master probably guessed what Li Xiuyuan was thinking, and said softly: "What about the children in our academy? I am really worried about their future."
"It's not too late, teacher, you can tell the dean your thoughts!" Li Xiuyuan didn't want to meddle in other people's business, but that didn't stop him from giving advice to his wife.
"Have you ever killed anyone? Only one out of ten people who come back from the Shura battlefield will survive. If you don't have the heart to do anything to others after you go in, you might as well just stay at home!"
Li Xiuyuan and Nangong Ruyu said quietly: "The road to spiritual practice is long. Do we have to rely on the opportunities on the Shura battlefield to pursue our own path?"
In fact, he really wanted to tell the two women in front of him that neither of his masters needed the opportunity of the Shura battlefield. It's just that the old Taoist priest taught him to be wary of people since he was a child, so he couldn't trust the two women in front of him.
"I can't go, why can you, master?!"
Nangong Ruyu asked reluctantly as she watched him act coquettishly.
"I have been hunting on Luocaixia Mountain for a living since I was a child. After coming to the academy, eight bandits and eighteen killers died at my hands! Is this reason enough?"
Li Xiuyuan showed no mercy to her, looked at her and said seriously.
Suddenly, Nangong Ruyu frowned slightly, looked at the woman in white and said, "Mother, does it mean that I can't go there even if I break through to the realm of breaking the void?"
The woman in white was holding a tea cup in her hand, thinking about Li Xiuyuan's words. After a moment of silence, she said, "Maybe you really can't go there. Then you can just stay at home."
Nangong Ruyu raised her head, looked at Li Xiuyuan and asked, "Master, will you give Yu'er an opportunity on the Shura battlefield?"
The Master looked at her in astonishment, shook his head gently, and asked after hesitating for a moment: "What did you say, Xiuyuan?"
It was Li Xiuyuan's turn to be surprised, thinking that he was really talkative, wasn't this causing trouble for himself?
After being embarrassed for a long time, he replied softly: "If the situation allows it then... maybe it will be possible."
In fact, what he wanted to say was: There are still many years to go. Who knows what will happen in the future?
