Fairy, return my flying sword to me

Chapter 131: My Senior Brother is Strong and Curvy

In the woods, fallen leaves are everywhere.

Standing in the woods, he made hand gestures.

Two breaths later, golden light flowed from the fingertips, and thousands of fine sword energies burst out like star rain.

"Sususu!"

The scattered fallen leaves were pierced by the sword energy one after another, and scattered like flying flowers all over the sky.

The sword energy continued to surge, whistling and covering the broken walls at the end of the woods.

Amidst the flying gravel, a figure as fast as the wind wandered through the complex forest.

Lin Jian held his third senior brother's sword and used the Lingying Fenguang Sword to instantly shoot out dozens of golden sword auras.

"Bah! Bah!"

Sword energy fell down and blocked the figure moving quickly in the forest.

The opponent moved around, dodging left and right, but was intercepted by sword shadows.

When he finally looked around hoping to find another way to survive, a series of sword shadows fell from the sky and blocked the last way out.

Like a huge clock covered with spikes, it firmly trapped the figure inside.

The golden swords that besieged the girl seemed messy, yet they were vaguely connected.

The sword shadow vibrated and emitted waves of true energy, so that the girl trapped in it felt her true energy stagnate and it was difficult for her to burst out true energy to resist for a while.

Fortunately, the sword shadow only lasted for three breaths before naturally dissipating in the air.

Li Yuwan suddenly fell to the ground, gasping for breath.

It wasn't until Lin Jian's figure landed in front of him that he stood up and looked at him enthusiastically, saying, "Senior brother, your skills are improving rapidly!"

Everyone knew that her senior brother had broken through to the second level of foundation building during the Four Sects Competition. She also knew that after returning to the sect, he asked the master for several techniques suitable for gold-type sword cultivators at the second level of foundation building.

In fact, she had never been apart from her senior brother except for sleeping during these two days, so she knew better than anyone else how his senior brother was progressing in practicing these new techniques.

When we say that one makes rapid progress, we are actually praising the phrase “rapid progress”.

Is there anyone who can use a new spell stably within two days of learning it?

Compared with my senior brother, I feel like a little demon with no intelligence.

But even so, the senior brother seemed very dissatisfied.

He was mumbling something incomprehensible like "the speed is still slow".

Is it true that my senior brother requires me to cast all spells instantly?

Too……

This is how a genius like my senior brother should be.

During the two days of practicing with her senior brother, what she felt most was his squeezing of her time.

Every day, as soon as I open my eyes, I practice; as soon as I close my eyes, I sleep. Even if I sleep, I don’t sleep much.

Even though he is already so good, he is still working hard, as if there is a non-stop beast chasing him.

If there is any way for senior brother to relax, perhaps it is to occasionally joke with the mortal woman beside him?
After returning, she decided to write a book called "My Senior Brother is Strong and Curvy".

"I'm leaving tomorrow, so let's stop here for today."

Lin Jian put down the sword in his hand, walked to the edge of the cliff and sat down.

The night breeze blew the hair on his forehead, and it fluttered in the wind.

"Why would the Imperial Master send you here?" Lin Jian casually brought up a topic.

Ever since these junior brothers and sisters joined the sect, he has not had time to have a good chat with them.

He knew that he had indeed saved the princess's life, but he always felt that it was not necessary for her to travel thousands of miles to become her disciple just for such a reason.

"Because Master said you're very powerful..." Li Yuwan tucked her hair, which was a little messy from sword practice, around her ears. "He said that when facing that demon, he stood far away and didn't dare to move forward. Only Senior Brother bravely rushed forward without fear of death. Not only did he kill the demon and save me, he also saved him. He also said that disciples like Senior Brother are very powerful. Those in the Foundation Establishment stage are more powerful than him in the Golden Core stage."

Lin Jian was stunned. "Did he say that?"

Could this be what the national teacher would say?

Given his personality, even if this was true, he would have said, "That so-and-so and I are so strong. Let's team up and kill people together."

Not to mention that he also played a considerable role in that battle, and Yizhihua was beaten unilaterally by him.

In the final fight against the demon, he was the first to block the demon's spiritual absorption, and the role he played was not insignificant.

Apart from being a bit of a pig and doing nothing, this national teacher is not as bad as he says.

"Yes..." Li Yuwan actually felt a little strange. "This is the first time Master has praised an outsider like this. I remember that even when facing some seniors in the Nascent Soul stage, Master always said that they were nothing special."

As she spoke, Li Yuwan turned her head and looked at Lin Jian's profile intently, her eyes somewhat obsessed.

"So at first I thought Master had tricked me into coming here in order to give me a better future..."

The reason she was willing to follow her master's instructions was that even if she failed to become his disciple, she could still see the man who saved her life in person. "I just didn't expect... everything the master said was true."

"Hmm~" Lin Jian, who was being stared at by the girl beside him with a fiery gaze, fell silent for a moment. Then he stood up with a giggle and said, "Good night, Makabaka..."

……

The eldest brother is gone.

He walked in great style.

Li Yuwan stood at the foot of the mountain, watching the three senior brothers walk away.

Then he returned to his own courtyard in a daze.

I don’t know why, but during the past two days of practicing with my senior brother, time seemed to pass quickly and fulfillingly.

It happened so fast that there was no time to think about anything else. It seemed that the last moment he was still nervously asking his senior brother to let him practice with him, and the next moment his senior brother had already left the mountain gate with Senior Sister Li Qingyu to go down the mountain to practice.

Accustomed to living a fulfilling life without having to think or worry, she suddenly felt a little lost when she had some free time.

Even she herself didn't know how she got back to her own courtyard.

As soon as she entered the door, the cheerful and lively voice of her junior sister rang in her ears.

"Sister Yuwan, they say a group of foxes from the back mountains have somehow made their way to our main peak. Many of our brothers and sisters are swarming the mountains catching those little creatures. I heard those foxes are even cute, clever, and human-like, so I want to join in the fun. You should come too; all the brothers and sisters have already gone!"

Li Yuwan just felt uninterested and shook her head, "Not interested."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he was stunned.

That's not right... Is this still the same me?

In the past, if I heard about this kind of thing, I would definitely go with everyone to watch the fun.

If it is really interesting, I will chat with the brothers and sisters who come with me for a long time with great interest; if it is relatively boring, I will also chirp quietly behind them for a long time, and then I will come over again when I hear something similar next time.

Similar things have happened many times since she entered the sect.

After all, the days of cultivation are really boring, and it is difficult to persist if you don’t find some fun for yourself.

But after only two days of practicing with her senior brother, she found that she could no longer bear her previous life.

Li Yuwan smiled.

She suddenly realized why she used to feel confused, empty, and even upset during her daily "happy" practice.

Because my heart is warning me.

She felt that she had worked very hard, and tried to convince herself that finding fun things to pass the time was the only way to persevere in this boring practice life for a longer period of time.

But in fact, I know it clearly in my heart.

I knew very well that I had not given my full effort, but was only performing in the appearance of trying hard.

The restless soul has been longing for a sudden enlightenment, longing for an opportunity from heaven, wanting a sudden surge in cultivation, and praying for an epiphany of understanding of magic.

But I haven't taken even one firm and steady step towards this end.

There are twelve months in a year, thirty days in a month, and twelve hours in a day... How much time do I actually spend on improving myself?
How much effort is enough?

There is no standard.

Do your best.

Try your best.

Li Yuwan picked up the sword and began to dance.

Keep your mind focused and seek the truth without distractions.

The junior brothers and sisters who came back one after another wanted to share the interesting things they saw in the sect today as soon as they pushed the door open, but they found that the courtyard, which was once bustling, was now quiet.

Only the sound of swords cutting through the wind could be heard continuously.

The uninformed fellow disciples who came later tried to ask the fellow disciples who came back earlier with their eyes, but they did not expect the responses they received were equally blank.

Then gradually...some people took out books, some took out jade, and some quietly walked away.

No matter what, it is always shameful to disturb others when they are practicing diligently.

one day……

Two days...

Day after day, never get discouraged.

Li Yuwan did not explain.

Occasionally, when he stopped and was asked questions, he would just smile gently.

Words and deeds are the best teachers.

This, perhaps, was the first lesson that Senior Brother had taught her in the past two days...
