Chapter 1137: Chapter 353: Liu Jianxin’s Invitation (Part 3)

Just at this moment, the sound of the piano filled the ears, and the voice of the Piano Demon carried bewitchment:

"Put down the sword in your hand, accept the true nature of this world!"

The two worlds seemed to overlap with each other.

In this world, Liu Jianxin’s sword became heavy, looking at the people in suits around, he felt confused and helpless for a moment.

Correspondingly, in what seemed like another world, there was a young man, within the Martial Hero World in his heart, the invincible Xiao Jianglong had already died in battle, and the powerful Piano Demon used the music to make him surrender, to see clearly the true face of the martial world.

A great sense of fatigue, and a powerlessness after being deceived by life, made him want to kneel, want to throw away the sword in his hand.

But at this time, that voice appeared in his mind.

[What heroes do is never easy. If this world were not dark, if the martial world were not treacherous, then why would we even be who we are?]

[Grip your sword, go slay the enemy! Go do the right thing, and the difficult thing!]

Go do the right thing, and the difficult thing.

This sentence was like a bolt of lightning, exploding in the pitch-black night.

The lightning illuminated everything, illuminating the smiling face of his father from years ago.

At that moment, Liu Jianxin seemed to see a scene from many years ago.

"Teacher, my child did nothing wrong, I will not make him apologize!"

"Your child hit someone, hitting is wrong, what kind of parent are you? No matter what, you shouldn’t resort to violence! Do you know how much those people donate to the school every year?!"

"Yes, you have a rule of no hitting, but my child was helping that girl! Her textbooks were vandalized until no word could be seen, her chair was covered in glue. When she was bullied, your rules didn’t protect her, so when my child had to protect her, he obviously had to break those trash rules!"

"Even if you expel my child today, I will not let him admit fault, I cannot let him think that protecting others is wrong, and bullying others is right!!"

That was an incident from when he was thirteen. Clearly, he had struck others, but his father stood firmly by him.

Liu Jianxin suddenly found himself in tears.

That year, a female student was bullied by other classmates, she had sought help from the teacher, but the teacher was a classic who treated others based on their status.

Facing the female classmate’s cry for help, the teacher simply said, "I’ve already criticized them, don’t be too petty."

That was all, naturally leading to the bullies becoming more and more brazen.

So Liu Jianxin couldn’t stand it anymore and beat up those who bullied the female classmate. This beating immediately put him at risk of expulsion.

Liu Jianxin remembered it all.

He suddenly understood, so this was his childhood.

Unlike many in the Deceit Tower who had an unfortunate childhood, Liu Jianxin’s childhood had a great father.

It was precisely because of his father’s teachings that he supported himself through the dark times in his life for a long, long time.

The feeling of fatigue seemed to fade a little, and the sense of powerlessness also, in that moment, gradually lifted.

"Hey, future me, have you become a great hero in the martial world?"

In his haze, Liu Jianxin looked at the layered phantoms in the distance, regained a bit of strength, and also heard from his past self, a naive question.

The hardships of thirty years old, a smile can brush them off, but the hardships of thirteen years old, perhaps can never be overcome.

Fortunately, in that year, his father shone brightly.

Liu Jianxin gritted his teeth and said:

"Not yet, but I am striving to become a great hero!"

At this moment, the two worlds of Liu Jianxin began to overlap.

[Original Heart Sword Technique upgraded. Original Heart Sword Technique reached level ten!]

The music that brought pain was suppressed by a clear and unwavering roar.

Just when everyone thought that the young man who had just entered the martial world was finally about to be defeated...

A simple and pure sword light flashed by.

The throat of the Piano Demon had a blood-red line appear.

Also at this moment, Wen Xishu, hiding in the shadows, could finally appear in front of Liu Jianxin.

Because what he wanted had appeared.

[Original Heart Sword Technique reached level ten, awakened the hero’s heart, gained Ye Jianxin’s martial arts inheritance — Sword Heart Dust Cleaning. Achieved special accomplishment, obtained invitation.]

Liu Jianxin was puzzled:

"This... what is this thing?"

A sudden invitation appeared in his hand, he couldn’t understand it.

At this time, the group of demons from the Martial Union suddenly knelt down. They were originally worried because of the defeat of the Piano Demon, but seeing that figure arrive... they were instantly filled with peace of mind.

Instead, the Martial Arts Heroes, because of Liu Jianxin’s previous performance, were each overjoyed, but at this moment, they all showed expressions of despair.

Because a figure they feared approached the center of the arena. The greatest demon of the Martial Arts Union, Wen Xishu, had arrived at the arena.
