The Legend of the Young Swordsman: A Prequel - A Phantom Melody Embarks on a Journey Through the Mar

He walked down the street in a daze, having completely forgotten all the noise around him. At this moment, he felt utterly hopeless.

That person's name is Yuexi!

The person looked exactly like I remembered, and even had the same name, but spoke in a way that didn't recognize me.

Moreover, he has a very close relationship with Baili Dongjun!

Despite having arrived in Beili, he is hiding his presence, yet he is willing to stay by Baili Dongjun's side.

All of this kept flashing through Helian Yunshen's mind. The more he thought about it, the more despondent he felt, and the more he felt that he had lost all motivation to move forward in life.

"Helian Yun Shen!"

Just as Helian Yun Shen was feeling utterly dejected, a voice filled with hatred and anger rang out in the street. The various vendors setting up their stalls knew from this scene that another fight was about to break out.

He hurriedly gathered all his belongings and left the place as quickly as possible.

Looking up, he saw a person of similar age, staring at him with hatred and anger in his eyes.

"Who are you?"

Despite his distraught state, Helian Yun Shen still couldn't recall having such a young enemy, so he asked.

The man's voice was extremely angry and high-pitched.

"Who am I? I am a relative of those you killed, and I have come here specifically to seek revenge!"

"The people I killed? I can't remember."

This statement made Helian Yun Shen even more confused about whose descendants or relatives these people were. He had killed far too many people to remember clearly.

"It's no use talking more!"

The man said this coldly.

He then drew his long sword from his waist and unleashed a sudden thrust at Helian Yun Shen.

Seeing the long sword so close at hand, Helian Yunshen, his heart filled with despair, thought that ending the rest of his life like this would be fine, since things had already come to this.

My master has passed away!

The person I longed for became just wishful thinking!

There wasn't much in this world worth his attachment.

The longsword was only an inch away from Helian Yun Shen, and his body's instincts and most basic survival instincts made Helian Yun Shen's body involuntarily dodge.

With just this instinctive dodge, they directly avoided the longsword that the guy was swinging.

"Damn it, how is this guy so powerful?"

He was extremely frustrated when his first sword strike failed.

He was so close to succeeding, how could he have dodged it by such a tiny margin?

He turned around and swung his longsword horizontally at Helian Yun Shen's neck, but Helian Yun Shen simply jumped backward to dodge the attack.

"At this point, strength has become a burden."

Seeing that his body's instinctive movements had allowed him to dodge the man's attack, Helian Yun Shen felt a little frustrated, wishing he could die but knowing he was already beyond saving.

"Are you humiliating me?"

Seeing his attacks being toyed with like a monkey by this guy, the man grew even angrier. In his anger, the longsword he wielded was no longer a basic move.

He began to display some sword techniques.

Such swordsmanship is relatively easy for Helian Yun Shen to dodge, but this instinctive dodging also means that Helian Yun Shen cannot dodge some of the moves.

My arm was cut by the longsword in this guy's hand.

The pain entered Helian Yun Shen's head, and he frowned slightly before everything returned to normal.

"That's more like it!"

The words of praise reached the man's ears as if they were a profound insult. His face showed both anger and disappointment—disappointment that even with all his efforts, he had failed to kill him.

"You hurt my brother?"

Helian Yun Shen heard a voice coming from behind him.

Before Helian Yun Shen could turn around to see who he was, a person dressed in red rushed in front of Helian Yun Shen and unleashed the Wufang Fist.

A punch landed on the man's chest.

He was severely injured.

"Yun Shen, what happened to you? How could someone with such strength manage to hurt you?"

Lei Mengsha turned around and questioned him, somewhat angry and confused.

What she saw was the utter despair in Helian Yun Shen's eyes, and she thought of something. She could only sigh silently and look up at Helian Yun Shen.

"How about we go to Tianqi City together sometime? We can relax there and maybe meet someone even better."

"Alright!"

Having no goals to begin with, Helian Yun Shen accepted Lei Meng Sha's invitation without hesitation.

As for the man who was hit, no one paid attention to his condition. After Helian Yun Shen agreed, Lei Meng Sha directly pulled Helian Yun Shen away from there.

In a tavern in Qiandong City

"Drink less!"

Seeing Helian Yun Shen relentlessly drinking, Lei Meng Sha couldn't help but try to dissuade him. Luo Xuan, who was standing nearby, also heard Lei Meng Sha explain the reasons behind it, and he could only say that he couldn't help with matters of the heart.

This is something he can only get through on his own.

"Brother Lei, do you think I'm a complete idiot?"

Slightly drunk and clutching a wine jug, Helian Yun Shen asked Lei Meng Sha a question. Lei Meng Sha, hearing Helian Yun Shen's question, offered words of comfort.

"How could you be a complete idiot! My brother is the most talented person in the world, no one can compare to you."

"But what use is this strength?"

"It allows one to uphold justice, roam the martial world, and at the same time, to dedicate oneself to ensuring a peaceful life for the common people!"

"To uphold justice? To roam the world? That's right! That's right! Maybe if I roam around and find something that can help me forget her, I can forget her and stop suffering like this."

Lei Mengsha's words reached Helian Yunshen's ears. He kept recalling these words, and as he recalled them, he poured the wine from the wine jug in his hand into his mouth.

And at this very moment

Helian Yun Shen's aura changed again, and Luo Xuan and Lei Meng Sha were almost speechless with astonishment at the sight.

"This? This?"

"Is Yun Shen's talent really that monstrous?! He can break through just because he's heartbroken and down on his luck? When did breakthroughs become so worthless?"

Even Luo Xuan couldn't help but say such words at this moment.

In their eyes, breaking through was such a difficult thing, but it turned out to be so easy for Yun Shen. He broke through his strength again while having a drink and complaining.

"Another breakthrough? I hate this feeling!"

Helian Yun Shen felt the changes in his body and was quite helpless. He hadn't done anything, yet he had broken through so easily.

"Yun Shen, I feel that you will soon break through to the legendary Divine Realm, at which point there will be no one in the world who can rival you."

What's so good about wandering in a mystical realm?
