The man in black hesitated. After a moment, his heart tightened, his teeth gritted, and he bravely spoke, "If the sword master wants to find a more powerful swordsman, he can go to the east of the sea."
The east of the sea?
Xi Longquan didn't know why and looked at the man in black with confusion.
He has been on Wangxian Island since he was born, and has never heard of other countries besides the sea outside of Wangxian Island.
"There is another world to the east of the sea. It is the outside world. I heard that there are countless swordsmen and magical monsters there."
Is this... the outside world?
It’s really fascinating!!!
I have to admit that Xi Longquan was attracted by the sentence "Countless Swordsmen".
He has been pursuing the ultimate realm of swordsmanship all his life. Nowadays, no one can match Wangxian Island. It will be useless to stay any longer. It is better to give it a try and go to the outside world.
Thinking of this, Xi Longquan's gaze became firmer, and Longquan Sword trembled slightly as he felt the master's determination.
"But..." The man in black's voice suddenly turned down, with a worried look on his face.
Xi Longquan's heart suddenly rose, "But what?"
"Actually, it's nothing. It's just that Wangxian Island lives in the deep sea. Only the Yunxiao Longship can allow you to safely go to the Eastern Kingdom."
The Yunxiao Longship is owned by the owner of Wangxian Island and is the only ship on the entire Wangxian Island. No wonder this person knows these things. He probably got it from the Yunxiao Longship.
However, with his current level of cultivation, wielding a sword will not be a problem.
Seeing Xi Longquan's intention, the man in black hurriedly said, "I know that the sword master's cultivation is extraordinary, but after all, it is an endless sea area, and the risks are still unknown. At least there is someone on the Yunxiao Longship to take care of you."
"Thank you very much." Xi Longquan nodded and said thank you.
"Sword Master, I heard that the Misty Palace in the Eastern Kingdom is where swordsmen gather. You can go there and have a look."
"good."
"By the way, Sword Master, the Yunxiao Longship will go to sea tomorrow evening."
"Um."
The man in black grinned, turned around and strode away.
After he was completely out of Xi Longquan's sight, the man in black took a long breath, patted his chest, and said with lingering fear, "As expected of a sword master, when Longquan came out, blood almost spattered on the spot."
Suddenly, a strong force came from his left shoulder, which frightened him and stopped him breathing.
"Li Sheng, why did you tell the sword master that?"
Before the man in black could react, a familiar voice came to his ears. He was furious and shouted, "Mu——Yuan!"
"Okay, okay, I understand how you feel. I remember how scared I was when the Sword Master came to my door." Mu Yuan disagreed.
Li Sheng glanced at him faintly.
"It's good now. Thanks to you, the Sword Master can finally stop harming the swordsmen of Wangxian Island, and the island owner can also have a good sleep."
When Li Sheng, who was originally angry, heard this, his gloomy expression suddenly brightened, "How come you have become smarter after not seeing me for a day, and you can actually see my intentions."
Mu Yuan rolled his eyes, put his arm around Li Sheng's shoulders, and the two of them put their arms around each other, as if they were brothers.
Fortunately, practitioners live for a long time and their appearance does not change. Otherwise, two old men who are almost two hundred years old together would not be laughed at.
On the other side, Xi Longquan's mind had already flown to the distant eastern country. He looked eastward and murmured: "Do you think there is really a chance for me there?"
The Longquan sword in his hand buzzed in response to his words.
"In that case, let's go see the distant eastern country together."
In the evening of the next day, the Yunxiao Longship set sail. Xi Longquan stood on the deck, watching the setting sun dye half of the sky red, eager to try.
The Yunxiao Longship sailed for three whole days and three nights, and finally arrived at the strange eastern country.
Stepping on a foreign land, Xi Longquan couldn't help but tighten the sword in his hand and stepped out with his head held high and his chest held high, showing extraordinary magnanimity.
He found a restaurant to stay. The restaurant was very lively, with countless monks gathered together.
Judging from the attire of these people, they should be monks in this land.
Xi Longquan looked at it calmly and pricked up his ears.
"How long will it take to get to the Misty Palace?" A man frowned and said impatiently.
The companion beside him pulled his sleeve and gave him a look, indicating that he should keep his voice down. Unexpectedly, the man didn't take it seriously and broke away.
"What can't be said about this? Who in the Three Realms doesn't know that there is a competition in the Piaomiao Palace to recruit a bride? Aren't all the people in this room rushing to do this?"
Piaomiao Palace!
Hearing the familiar three words, Xi Longquan's eyes deepened and he listened to their conversation more attentively.
Li Sheng said that the Piaomiao Palace was where swordsmen gathered. Originally, he was worried that he would not be able to find the place because he was unfamiliar with the place, but the Emperor and God really paid off.
Since they are all going to Piaomiao Palace, you can just follow them.
As a result, these people didn't know that a stranger had sneaked in behind them. They just thought that this person also went to the Piaomiao Palace to participate in a martial arts competition to recruit a bride.
The group of people walked with swords, and finally, half a day later, they landed at the foot of a mountain that towered into the clouds, where many young talents had gathered.
Xi Longquan, who was standing silently in the corner, looked around, quietly sizing up this group of people, feeling their cultivation, and raised the corners of his lips with satisfaction.
Li Sheng is right, this trip is worth it!
"There are still two days until the January period..." Someone in the crowd sighed, instantly causing countless people to start chatting.
"Piaomiao Palace has been hiding from the world for a long time, and I still don't know what these three palace masters look like?"
"There are rumors that the wonderful doctor is the third master of the Piaomiao Palace. If this is true, then the other two are not much different."
"No matter what they look like, if they can step into the rumored Piaomiao Palace, they are already burning incense."
…
After hearing these words, Xi Longquan couldn't help but look up at the mountain peak, his eyes shining brightly.
There is the Piaomiao Palace!
Time flew by, and the January period had arrived. When the warm sunshine shot out from the clouds, a majestic female voice came from all directions.
"The January period has arrived, and the mountain gate of Piaomiao Palace has been opened. Whether you can come to Piaomiao Palace depends on your ability."
As soon as the words fell, the people at the foot of the mountain rushed forward with all their might, while Xi Longquan raised his eyelids slightly and followed calmly.
Halfway through the journey, an invisible coercion suddenly appeared. Many people bent their backs and stopped. Some people could not bear the pressure and turned down the mountain. Others gritted their teeth and struggled to hold on, dripping with sweat.
Xi Longquan could only see the top, and before he knew it, he had surpassed many people and successfully arrived in front of the Piaomiao Palace.
The number of people here has decreased by 70%. Xi Longquan glanced around subconsciously and was shocked, but in an instant, he was replaced by surprise.
squeak--
The palace door opened, everyone was silent, and all looked at the sound.
