Chapter 305: 305, Really Fragrant

One Sword Mountain, Welcoming Guest Peak.

Ji Li was forced back by Lu Xun repeatedly. Then, Lu Xun moved forward with a big swing of his hand — smack!

The sword sheath accurately struck her pert buttocks, causing waves of ripples.

“You lost again.” Lu Xun said.

Ji Li’s cute face flushed, with an expression of resignation. She seemed to have gotten accustomed to it.

Lu Xun looked at her and spoke, “Can’t you focus a bit more when we spar?”

“You know you expose too many flaws when you’re not concentrating, right?”

“If you meet an enemy fighting for life and death, you would have died countless times by now.”

In this respect, Lu Xun was somewhat serious for once.

On hearing this, Ji Li murmured, ” I can’t keep all of my attention on sparring when I am looking at you!”

A confession from a beauty admirer.

At Ji Li’s words, Lu Xun found himself laughing at her charming and silly behavior, saying, “Are you implying, it wouldn’t be the same when fighting others?”

“Of course!” Ji Li replied as if it were a matter of course.

Seeing her like this, Lu Xun flicked her forehead hard.

As for Ji Li’s overall strength, Lu Xun was actually quite satisfied.

Among the cultivators of the same realm, Ji Li was undoubtedly a standout.

However, with her current strength, the likelihood of her conquering the “Moon in the Well” trial was slim.

Lu Xun didn’t hold such high expectations for her, as long as she could reap some rewards in the instance dungeon.

“Elder Lu!” At that moment, a clear voice rang out; Ye Sui’an was coming from afar on his flying sword.

He was dressed in a green shirt, standing on his flying sword—quite an image of a sword immortal.

However, the joyful smile on his face made Lu Xun feel a shiver down his spine.

“Elder Lu, you’ve finally woken up!” After Ye Sui’an landed, he put away his flying sword and said to Lu Xun.

After Lu Xun had lost consciousness, Ye Sui’an would visit the bamboo house every afternoon to check on him.

If Ji Li hadn’t been taking personal care of Lu Xun and considering the different genders between them and Ji Li, he might have moved directly into the bamboo house.

Lu Xun looked at Ye Sui’an and marveled internally.

Based on his previous knowledge of Ye Sui’an, the man was a flirt and had countless admirers.

Although Ji Li’s beauty went without saying, with her own charming allure, Ye Sui’an didn’t even glance her way, which was indeed strange.

Perhaps after being overwhelmed by Lu Xun in swordsmanship, he had packed away his playboy tendencies and wholly devoted himself to the way of the sword.

“It seems that unbeknownst to me, I have accomplished a great deed benefitting countless young girls.” Lu Xun mused.

He looked at Ye Sui’an, gave a gentle smile, and said, “Did you come all this way specifically to see me?”

“Rest assured, I’m in good health and didn’t experience any abnormalities.”

Upon hearing this, Ye Sui’an, who had been anxious for days, finally relaxed.

He bowed to Lu Xun and said, “I almost forgot to congratulate you, Elder Lu, for securing the top position on the ‘Moon in the Well’ list.”

Lu Xun looked at his sincere expression and being somewhat inquisitive, he half-jokingly and seriously said, “The ‘Moon in the Well’ list updates every ten years, you were first in this decade until I surpassed you. How do you feel about it?”

Ye Sui’an was slightly taken aback for a moment.

Is Elder Lu testing my temperament?

He truthfully replied, “I am far behind Elder Lu in terms of the sword dao, I am completely convinced.”

“Moreover, my master always instructs me: Flowing water does not vie for the lead, it only strives to flow unceasingly.”

Lu Xun pondered over the sentence, and praised, “What a fine sentence — Flowing water does not vie for the lead; it only strives to flow unceasingly!”

“May I know which master of yours said this?” He asked curiously.

“It was Master Ping Shanhai.” Ye Sui’an smiled and replied, “My master is an Aquatic Swordsman, he understood sword intent by observing flowing water, hence, his teachings often use water as a metaphor.”

After hearing this, Lu Xun nodded his head.

Now he recalled, when Ping Shanhai had come to the Demon Sect to seek sword dao, that ultimate sword strike of his derived its strength from the accumulated snow in the radius of hundreds of miles.

The strike melted the ice and snow, it was a magnificent sight to behold.

“Elder Lu, were you sparring with Junior Sister Ji Li just now?” Ye Sui’an asked.

Lu Xun nodded, not denying it.

Ye Sui’an immediately spoke: “In the previous days, Sui An observed Elder Lu’s way of drawing the moon close with his hand, and gained some insights. I hope Elder Lu could give me some guidance today.”

Here we go again, this guy wants to be poked in the brow by me.

But for Lu Xun, who had just made a breakthrough, sparring with a world protagonist-worthy partner was quite good, so he agreed with a smile.

After all the fuss, Lu Xun ended up staying at One Sword Mountain for three days.

After all, it would be rude to leave immediately after waking up.

When there was nothing to do, he would spar with Ye Sui’an.

Ye Sui’an was enthusiastic like a tour guide, taking Lu Xun around One Sword Mountain.

During this process, Lu Xun naturally attracted attention.

Whether it was players from One Sword Mountain or disciples of One Sword Mountain, they were all intensely curious about him.

Mr. Qian Zhongshu once wrote in his renowned work “Fortress Besieged”:

[Looking too closely at an ugly person is a form of cruelty.]

But in reality, some good-looking people only seem attractive at a glance, but they can’t stand a closer look.

But Lu Xun wasn’t one of those people.

The more you looked at him, the deeper you would fall into his charm.

Many of the disciples at One Sword Mountain naturally held animosity towards him, their hostility stemming from the pride and honor of the Sword Cultivators, which was completely normal.

But upon seeing him, his affable smile, his polite and modest demeanor, and his unparalleled appearance, they could no longer harbor any hostility towards him.

However, despite his cheerful exterior, Lu Xun was swearing in his heart in Chinese.

All these people at One Sword Mountain were Sword Cultivators, the most arrogant group among the cultivators. They would never put their swords into storage rings. They had to hold them, hang them, carry them on their backs… That’s what makes them cool!

As a Non-Swordbearer, Lu Xun found this unbearable.

He was afraid that if he wasn’t careful, he would bounce off the Sword Cultivators holding longswords around him.

If he wanted to, he could punch each little guy away one by one.

A slap could send them, along with their swords, flying away.

So, after wandering around One Sword Mountain for an afternoon, he basically stayed inside the bamboo house and didn’t go out again.

At this moment, a sword light approached from a distance, and Lame Ping in a green shirt appeared outside the bamboo house.

In the past few days, he had attended a meeting with the Sect Leader of One Sword Mountain and several Peak Masters.

Once the internal discussion was over, he went to discuss the matter with Qian Zhengyi.

The main topic of their discussion was – giving some compensation to Lu Xun.

They had no choice, because he was a VIP.

If accidents occurred during the trial, it could be regarded as part of the experience.

But if something happened when the reward was obtained, it would suggest that their hospitality was lacking.

Though Lu Xun seemed to be unharmed, some basic form of compensation was necessary.

Otherwise, wouldn’t the two sword sects be laughed at by the other great sects?

That’s why Ping Shanhai was here today, as the compensation has already been decided.

When Lu Xun learned of the purpose of his visit, he was stunned at first.

According to the rules, the Inextinguishable Fire could only be used to refine one magical weapon.

After refining the sword sheath, he took advantage of the situation and jumped in for a hot bath. He was already taking advantage of the situation.

If he were to accept their compensation on top of that…

Would he still be human?

He, Lu, would never do such a thing as taking advantage and then playing innocent!

Did they really think he was a despicable person?

But when Ping Shanhai announced all the compensation, Lu Xun fell into silence.

“I was going to refuse righteously, but the compensation they offered was too enticing…”
