This scoundrel is a bit of a swordsman.

Daji slowly explained, finally giving Xiao Xingchen a glimmer of understanding. Despite the many variations, the essence remained the same. He had read a lot about cultivation in books before, and after her explanation, he understood.

"So that's how it is. So the rumors about the Heavenly Sword Immortal are just a misunderstanding?"

The girl shook her head and continued,

"I don't know when it started, but people have started to misunderstand the path of cultivation. The true function of the first level of the Spirit Platform Realm is to transform the body's Qi and blood into a power that transcends the mortal realm. For example, the Fire Sword Immortals transform their Qi and blood into fire, which makes all their attacks fire-based. The Water Sword Immortals are the same."

"The difference between Heavenly Sword Immortals lies only in their different transformations of Qi and Blood; in essence, they are all at the same cultivation level, and it's not that Heavenly Sword Immortals necessarily crush Water and Fire Sword Immortals,"

"In other words, many people outside are practicing the wrong way; only a very few still maintain the correct cultivation tradition,"

Xiao Xingchen slowly digested these points of knowledge, then frowned again and asked directly,

"That shouldn't be the case. How could the cultivation method be wrong? They're not fools,"

“A mistake is a mistake. There are many reasons for this. You just need to know that what I am teaching you is the true path to the Nine Heavens. As long as you keep going, reaching the peak is just around the corner.”

"Hmph, I don't believe you for a second. Back in my hometown, they make empty promises all the time, just to get the workers to work harder. I think you're manipulating me, but I have no proof."

"PUA? What's that?"

"It's nothing. So you didn't tell me what the world of Broken Sword is because my strength is too low, right? I understand, I understand. I can't be too ambitious. Knowing too much can easily lead to qi deviation, right?"

Xiao Xingchen started analyzing things to himself again. That's how it's written in martial arts novels. He was putting his knowledge into practice. He didn't even need Daji to explain it to him; he convinced himself.

Daji's lips twitched. For some reason, she couldn't help but want to kick the man in front of her away.

She took a deep breath to calm herself down, and at the same time, a sense of sorrow arose in her heart. When did she ever think that she would be reduced to being with such a despicable man and having to follow him so desperately?

She looked up at the sky, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.

"I still have questions!"

Suddenly, Xiao Xingchen interrupted her thoughts again, which made her somewhat annoyed.

"Why ask so many questions? Just ask them all at once."

Perhaps realizing he had too many problems, he thought about it carefully for a moment, and then blurted it all out at once.

"What level are you at? What level is the Martial Emperor at? Can you defeat the Martial Emperor? If you can, can you help me kill him? Also, what's the deal with the Qi Destiny Poison on my body? Why can you see it? And why can you cure it? How do you know I have an extraordinary background?"

"Oh my god,"

Before he could finish speaking, Daji, who was suppressing her anger, kicked him away.

The little tiger hopped and skipped to the doorway, stood on tiptoe, and watched the black dot disappear into thin air, nodding in satisfaction.

"Little Tiger, come here. What kind of bad luck did you have to run into such a master? Where did you find such a talkative and lovable jerk?"

The little tiger shook his head sadly. He had only taken a nap and was then given away. He was helpless.

It was still a woman, a man, and a beast. In the dense forest of Cangshan Mountain, the woman held a tiger cub in her arms, while the man walked ahead, constantly slashing and searching for a path with a large scythe, occasionally muttering complaints to those behind him.

"Do you even know the way? We've been walking for two days and haven't seen a soul. Are you sure you still remember the way?"

The group consisted of Daji and Xiao Xingchen. After getting to know each other better, they formed an alliance of interests. However, Xiao Xingchen, reaping what he sowed, claimed he would impersonate Daji as his wife to avoid detection. Naturally, he received a severe beating, and even two days later, a five-finger mark remained on his face.

"If I remember correctly, I haven't been out for a long time. I think it's this way," Daji said, looking back with some confusion. Even she herself didn't know how many years she had been trapped in Cangshan. As for the way out, she used to fly out, and walking out like this was a first for her.

"I really wonder who you are. How did you end up here all alone? Anyone who didn't know better would think you were a great monster."

"Perhaps it really is a demon?"

"just you?"

Xiao Xingchen glanced back, then shook his head.

"I'd accept such a beautiful fairy, haha."

"Stop joking around and hurry up and find the way, or the little tiger will bite you."

"Ugh, being bullied by women is bad enough, but having to be sucked blood by a tiger is just awful. What kind of life is this?"

Although Xiao Xingchen was sharp-tongued, he was actually quite pleased inside. Having come to this world, he finally had friends, whether it was Xiao Hu or Daji.

Loneliness is man's greatest enemy; how tragic it is to be alone and helpless in this vast world! Now, he has a beautiful woman who beats him up at the drop of a hat, and a tiger that's always trying to suck his blood, and he's actually quite happy about it.

They say men are all shameless, even he himself thinks so. But looking back, this was also a stroke of luck. Daji not only cured his luck poison but also made the pursuit from the royal ancestral land disappear without a trace. In any case, his crisis was over. As long as he went out and behaved himself, he could probably make his ambitions known in this world.

As for the royal ancestral land, he thought those people were really stupid, they couldn't even catch an ordinary person like him. Chen Miao and the other two must have already escaped successfully, right?

What he didn't know was that Chen Miao had experienced the darkest moment of her life during those three days.
