Chapter 440: 440, [One of a Kind Attribute] (Thanks to Alliance Hierarch “Ai Ai” for another 100,000 reward)
The Young Elder’s return to the Demon Sect naturally caused quite a stir.
They did not understand what “Sword Fate” meant, this term was way beyond the average disciples and players.
Although they didn’t understand, it didn’t stop them from feeling that it was something advanced.
A group buff, how could it not be powerful?
So, this event triggered a wave of discussion in the Demon Sect.
So what is the topic of discussion, Lu Xun, doing in the backyard now?
Lu Xun, the cook, is naturally frying dishes.
The master called Lu Xun back to the sect, saying he was going to take him, Lin Chan, and Ji Li to a certain place.
But the master didn’t say they were going immediately.
So, by dinner time, Lu Xun had conscientiously gone into the kitchen to start cooking.
Ji Li and Lin Chan stood by his side, serving him like two maids.
One was bashful and one was pure, but they were both a little clumsy.
In contrast, Lu Xun had nimble hands. Those who had tasted his cooking were all praises for him, and they gave endless words of approval.
To put it bluntly, even the Culinary Path required talent. Lu Xun suspected that if there was such a thing as “Culinary Talent” in the world, he was quite possibly at the highest level.
“It’s been a few months since I traveled down the mountain, right?” Lu Xun asked while descaling the fish.
He couldn’t remember the exact days anymore.
“107 days!” Ji Li replied while washing the vegetables.
She counted everyday, there was no chance of error.
Lin Chan silently nodded on the side. She also counted the days every day. She could certify that Ji Li had not miscounted.
“You remember that clearly?” Lu Xun smiled lightly and glanced at the two girls.
Ji Li carried herself confidently, without any hint of shyness, and openly admitted: “Because I count every day.”
Ever since she first met him, she had been yearning for Lu Xun and still is; there was nothing to hide about it.
Little Chan was a bit shy, her little ears flushed slightly as usual, and she lowered her head and busied herself with work.
Watching them, Lu Xun clicked his tongue in wonder: “The master’s special training really works, your cultivation has indeed made rapid progress.”
In terms of player levels, Ji Li is already at level 38 and Lin Chan, although she began training later, is already at level 36.
If it wasn’t for Lu Xun constantly collecting experience points on the mountain, he might have been surpassed by them.
“What kind of special training did the master give you?” Lu Xun was curious.
“Well … actually we just practice calligraphy and painting every day.” Ji Li picked up the kitchen knife and began to cut vegetables. She used quite a bit of force, causing her body to move rhythmically in a very captivating way.
“So it’s that kind of training.” On hearing this, Lu Xun nodded slightly, recalling the dream where he was suffocated by the countless “ugly” characters flying all over the sky.
Although Ji Li and Lin Chan varied in their calligraphy skills and improved their realm through mimicry, their training pattern should be similar.
This improvement speed was even faster than the players who could level up!
“Well done, you are both progressing very fast.” Lu Xun complimented.
Upon hearing her master’s praise, Little Chan was immediately contented.
Ji Li nodded slightly, her heart was happy, but her feelings were a little complex.
Because Lu Xun progressed faster than them, she found it hard to catch up with him.
The reason she was so concerned about this was because she found out that when a couple was practicing the Dao together, if their realms were the same, the combined effect would be the best.
Although she was still in the stage of yearning for Lu Xun, couldn’t she still have her aspirations?
With such a big chest, how could it possibly be empty inside?
“Little Chan, pass me the beaten eggs.” Lu Xun asked Lin Chan.
“Ok!” Lin Chan replied mentally, then handed the bowl filled with egg mixture to Lu Xun.
When Lu Xun took the bowl, their fingers briefly touched. This made Little Chan suddenly raise her head.
“The aura of the sword on the master is getting stronger and stronger.” Lin Chan thought to herself.
Especially after attaining Sword Fate, whenever Lin Chan stood next to Lu Xun, it would induce her extreme comfort, intoxicating her.
—Very addictive!
This resulted in Lin Chan being momentarily stupefied when their fingers separated after Lu Xun took the bowl, feeling a sense of loss.
“Miscreant! Miscreant! Miscreant!” Lin Chan quickly realized the seriousness of the situation and began to warn herself.
Even though… despite warning herself numerous times, it seemed to have no effect.
However, having no effect on herself was still better than having an effect on others.
About half an hour later, Lu Xun finally finished preparing the meal.
Mao Nanbei had already arrived, lured by the aroma. She floated in mid-air, sniffing the air all the way into the kitchen.
Then, with a flutter, her small body was directly hung on Lu Xun.
Such close interaction made Ji Li and Lin Chan feel a twinge of envy.
Although the second sister was no longer confined within the bamboo grove, everyone was already used to having meals in the small grove.
In the past, Lu Xun would specially prepare a lunch box for the second sister, but now everyone could sit together and eat.
As the sun set, only a simple small candle was lit in the bamboo grove at the back of the Demon Sect.
Because the magical fireflies in the back mountain would always be fluttering aimlessly in the bamboo grove. They shone brighter than ordinary fireflies, bringing considerable light.
While eating, for some reason, Lu Xun suddenly felt that his fatigue from the past few days had eased considerably.
Perhaps it was because the atmosphere of the back mountain was too soothing.
—[Sitting at ease with family, the lamplight feels familiar.]
…
…
After the meal, it was naturally the master’s favorite tea time.
When there were many people, the master rarely brewed the tea himself. Now, with the third elder brother absent, the task was handed over to Ji Li.
Although Ji Li came from a martial arts family, she didn’t have much talent in martial arts. It was through the charm of his looks that her father had attracted her mother, a female knight with superior martial arts.
As he didn’t make much progress in martial arts, her father compensated for the deficiencies of the martial arts family in other aspects, such as music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and tea-brewing.
Ji Li had learned these from him and she had considerable talent in tea-making.
Lu Xun watched her operations and could not help but think of the tea-serving girls in the tea houses on Earth.
“Usually, those girls from the tea houses wear qipaos.” Lu Xun said to himself.
Soon after, he imagined Ji Li dressed in a qipao.
Shh——, don’t think about it, don’t think about it. Once he started thinking, it was hard to stop! His thoughts were like runaway horses!
After drinking the tea brewed by Ji Li, Lu Xun put down the cup, thought for a moment, and decided to consult the master about questions related to Sword Fate.
After sorting out his words, he described his Sword Fate acquisition experience to the master and asked, “Master, why is that so?”
Even the second sister was very interested in this question. For a moment, everyone’s eyes were fixed on the master in the white robe.
Facing the attention of everyone, the master lifted his right hand, which had a dainty gesture, and adjusted the bun by his ear.
He, with his plain and ugly face, acted as he saw himself, suave and courteous.
After keeping everyone on tenterhooks, he finally started, “The so-called ‘Luck’ is somewhat related to the Heavenly Dao. ‘Luck’ has joined you, is no different from merging with the Heavenly Dao.”
The master picked up the tea cup, took a sip of hot tea, and continued, ”
The reason you were able to obtain the Sword Fate is largely because the ‘Sword Fate’ in the world today is masterless, so you can be granted with ‘Sword Fate’”
Upon hearing this, Lu Xun asked, “Does that mean that because the Sword Fate of West State and the Eastern Region are with me, no one else in these two places can have Sword Fate?”
The master nodded, “Correct.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Xun felt a sense of relief. This means that this buff is unique!
Uniqueness is always a wonderful tool for showing off!
Mao Nanbei, who was leaning against Lu Xun, moved her cat ears upon hearing this and wondered, “Master, why haven’t we ever heard of Knife Luck? Why do swords get to have it, but knives don’t?”
The little girl made a good point.
Although Sword Fate seemed elusive, everyone knew about it before Lu Xun obtained it.
Like the founder of the Sword Mountain, he was a man with Sword Fate. There was precedent.
Knife Luck, Gun Luck, Staff Luck… were unheard of, never even heard of.
Granted, swords have always been the most prosperous on the Heavenly Dust Continent, but there have been numerous top-notch experts who wielded the sword at the summit of the continent in ancient and modern times too.
Why isn’t there any Knife Luck?
Are they looking down on us knife-users or something?
The master heard this, looked at Mao Nanbei, and his face showed a somewhat playful smile. He said,
“Little Nanbei, did you forget what I just said? Since Knife Luck has not appeared in the world, naturally someone is already holding it. Just like Little Five now occupying the Sword Luck, no one else can get it.”
Lu Xun was shocked when he heard this.
Listening to the master’s words, it seems that things like Knife Luck, Gun Luck, etc. do not exist, but because either no one has reached the standard for obtaining them and they have not obtained their favor, willing to join together with you, or someone is already holding them!
Mao Nanbei frowned upon hearing his words.
The little cat looked down on the world without knowing the heights of the heaven. She always felt that she could reach the summit of the sword arts in the future, and was quite unhappy for a while. She said,
“Who on earth is it that occupies my Knife Luck!”
After that, she added, “If it’s occupied, it’s occupied; but it’s never been heard of anyone in the world with ‘Knife Luck’ for so many years. It’s like occupying a toilet without using it, isn’t it?”
“Pfft! Cough-cough-cough…” The master, who was drinking tea, was choked by Mao Nanbei’s words.
He looked at Mao Nanbei with eyes that seemed to be looking at a misbehaving disciple and after a long while, he reluctantly said,
“It’s me!”
