The Path Toward Heaven

Chapter 26

At the age of ten, Liu has been learning sword with Gu Han, but he is not qualified to enter liangqifeng. He still practices sword by the Xijian river.

Jing Jiu knows that place, but he hasn't even been out of the cave. Naturally, he hasn't been there.

Going upstream along Xijian River, the water surface gradually widens to the end. Facing it is a smooth stone wall about hundreds of feet high.

Clear water flowed down from the stone wall, and ripples appeared when passing through those dense sword holes. It looked very beautiful.

A row of pebbles appeared on the stream several feet apart. They were smooth and wet, so it was difficult to stand firm.

More than ten disciples stood on the stone to practice swords.

The sword is full of meaning. There is an occasional sound of wind breaking. The white light flashes and dies. From time to time, a sword flies out.

Some flying swords went deep into the stone wall and then flew back. The disciples looked calm and confident.

Some flying swords fell into the water several feet away from the stone wall. The disciples jumped into the water to get them back. They looked a little embarrassed and ashamed.

Some disciples stood on the far shore and looked at the picture with envy.

They haven't been able to take their swords from the sword peak, but these disciples have been able to fly their swords to break through the wall and enter the realm of guarding.

Jing Jiu saw Liu shisui standing on the stone between the streams and walked over.

Looking at his figure, the disciples were surprised and talked about it one after another.

Just like when he first walked out of the courtyard in nansongting.

When Liu was ten years old, he took back his flying sword and looked at the clear sword hole on the stone wall. He was somewhat satisfied with his progress, and then he saw Jing Jiu.

He was very surprised. Then he showed a strong uneasiness. Because it was inconvenient to speak, he shook his head at Jing Jiu and motioned him to go back first and find him later.

It's too late.

Gu Han had noticed the movement behind him, turned and looked at Jing Jiu, looked cold and said, "what's up?"

Dozens of sights fell on Jing Jiu.

Well nine looked at him and didn't speak.

Not everyone saw Jing Jiu's eyes, but they clearly perceived his meaning.

——If it's okay, what am I doing here?

In that case, your question is nonsense.

The atmosphere by the river suddenly became a little uneasy.

Gu Han unexpectedly didn't get angry, but asked, "what's the matter?"

Well nine said, "it's none of your business."

There was an uproar at the riverside. Both the disciples and the teachers were shocked.

An ordinary disciple dares to speak with this attitude to elder martial brother Gu Han of two forgetting peaks!

Jing Jiu didn't mean to humiliate Gu Han deliberately. He didn't even understand why people's eyes became so shocked.

He was just answering Gu Han's question.

What he wants to do has nothing to do with Gu Han.

But he didn't think what his answer meant to everyone.

When Liu was ten years old, he was very nervous and hurried back from the stream.

He wanted to explain for Jing Jiu, but Gu Han stopped him.

"It's been half a year. Your realm is still making no progress. You can't see the shadow of Jianguo."

Gu Han looked at Jing Jiu and said expressionless, "I heard you want to use martial uncle Mo's sword. Do you think you are qualified?"

Well nine said, "yes."

……

……

The riverside is quiet.

With a puff, someone couldn't help laughing.

People thought about how well nine might respond to Gu Han's reprimand, but no one thought that he ended the dialogue with one word.

He didn't even think about it when he said a word.

Gu Han's face became a little gloomy. He said coldly, "with the pill, you can never set foot on the real thoroughfare to heaven. You'll die."

This time, the answer was not Jing Jiu, but a gentle but dignified voice.

"The road is facing the sky. Who can judge which method is correct?"

People dispersed one after another, and Gu Han bowed slightly.

The visitor is martial uncle Meili of Qingrong peak. His face is as beautiful as a plum in the snow. It has a cold meaning.

She looked at Gu Han and said, "no matter who leads in, practice is in everyone. How Jing Jiu practices really has nothing to do with you. You shouldn't take care of him."

Gu Han said expressionless, "I don't care about his life or death. I just want to take care of his mouth."

The crowd was divided again. Younger martial sister Yushan and the young man surnamed yuan from Lelang County rushed over with Lin ignorance.

Lin ignorance looked at Gu Han and said with a smile, "younger martial brother Gu, well nine is the person in my class. Even if you want to manage, it won't be you."

Gu Han took a deep breath, took a deep look at Jing Jiuyi, turned and walked out.

"You decide how to go in the future."

Naturally, he didn't say this to Jing Jiu, but to Liu shisui. The meaning is very clear.
