Chapter 55: The Supreme Sword Master
Luo Xue could only pinch her nose and swallow the pill, looking completely despondent.
Oh, please switch back soon!
Seeing Luo Xue in Lin Fengmian’s form acting so despondent, Liu Mei was almost driven to tears by this scoundrel.
She clenched her fists, but her towering chest rose and fell rapidly, indicating her bad mood.
Luo Xue recited a mantra and then reached out to seal Liu Mei’s acupoints, only to realize that she was now in a male body.
“It’s okay, just do it,” Liu Mei said, turning her head away.
After all, she had already been “consumed” by him, so what was a few more touches?
Luo Xue forced a smile and sealed her acupoints from a distance, which only made Liu Mei grind her teeth in anger.
Luo Xue was confused, why were the women of the Joyful Union Sect so strange?
Is she unhappy because I didn’t touch her?
While Luo Xue was sealing Chen Qingyan’s acupoints, Liu Mei took the opportunity to pull Xia Yunxi into a corner.
Liu Mei nudged Xia Yunxi and teased, “Look at Junior Sister Xia’s rosy cheeks and shy demeanor, did you enjoy the experience?”
Xia Yunxi blushed deeply and said, “Junior Sister Liu, what are you talking about?”
“Oh, what’s there to be shy about? How else did you detoxify? Surely you didn’t do it yourself?” Liu Mei joked.
“That’s right! Tell us, how was it?” Mo Ruyu also joined in.
In the Joyful Union Sect, Lin Fengmian was untouchable for everyone, but when someone else had already touched him, Mo Ruyu’s little thoughts began to stir.
Seeing the serious and handsome Lin Fengmian over there, she couldn’t help but feel annoyed.
Why couldn’t he be with her?
Xia Yunxi blushed and said, “What do you mean, how was it? What are you all asking?”
“He’s not just a silver-tipped spear, is he?” Mo Ruyu said with a strange expression.
“No, no, Senior Brother is not…”
Xia Yunxi realized halfway through that she had been tricked and quickly covered her mouth.
Seeing Mo Ruyu’s meaningful smile, she stomped her foot in embarrassment and said, “I’m not talking to you anymore!”
At this moment, she was deeply sorry and hoped not to cause any trouble for Lin Fengmian.
After being with Senior Brother Lin, others would surely start targeting him.
After all, she had set a precedent, and the law doesn’t punish the masses.
Half an hour later, Luo Xue had to regulate her breathing several times before she could seal their acupoints one by one.
“But once the acupoints are sealed, doesn’t that mean that we can only circulate internally? We can’t replenish our spiritual energy?” Mo Ruyu asked.
“Yes!” Luo Xue nodded.
“So this battle must be resolved quickly, otherwise once our spiritual energy is exhausted, it will be our end,” Liu Mei said succinctly.
The others nodded in agreement. Luo Xue looked at them and couldn’t help but feel a certain admiration.
Even though these women were from the Joyful Union Sect, they were not as annoying as she had imagined.
That’s why she was willing to help them, otherwise, with her personality, she wouldn’t have bothered with such things.
At that moment, Luo Xue suddenly felt a sharp pain in her stomach and had to crouch down, sweating profusely.
She felt her stomach churning like a stormy sea and cursed inwardly, could it be diarrhea?
Fortunately, she only felt a wave of nausea and couldn’t help but vomit out a few poisonous insects.
She awkwardly wiped her mouth and looked at the dead poisonous insects.
She knew that Liu Mei hadn’t lied to her; the antidote was real as the poisonous insects had been expelled.
Lin Fengmian, look, a small problem, isn’t it easily solved by this immortal maiden?

Lin Fengmian and Xu Tingyu flew around the Taihang Mountain together for a whole day, but they still found nothing.
After all, Lin Fengmian wasn’t Luo Xue, how would he know about the opportunities if he just blindly followed her?
As they flew, he was deeply moved by the scenery of a thousand years ago.
As night fell, they were too deep in the mountains to return to the nearby city.
Xu Tingyu found a pond, released her aura to scare away all the small animals, and used her powerful divine consciousness to scan the area.
After confirming that there were no other living beings within a ten mile radius except for the two of them, she set up a large array to cover the area.
Having read many novels since childhood, she was well versed in protecting herself. She knew about being frightened by small animals while bathing, about encountering male cultivators practicing underwater…
Xu Tingyu believed that none of these things would happen to her; she would never make such elementary mistakes.
After scanning the area several times, she smiled and said, “We’ll rest here tonight.”
Lin Fengmian couldn’t refuse. Over the past two days, he had deeply experienced Xu Tingyu’s caution, which made him suspect that she was paranoid.
The two of them slowly landed by the pond, and when Xu Tingyu saw Lin Fengmian’s worried expression, she smiled gently and said, “Luo Xue, why do you seem so worried these past two days? Is there something on your mind that you want to share with your senior sister?”
Lin Fengmian quickly shook his head and said, “Senior Sister, I don’t have anything on my mind, I just feel a little guilty for forcing you to accompany me on this fruitless journey.”
Xu Tingyu shook her head and said, “What is there to feel guilty about? It’s just a trivial matter; I was idle in Qionghua anyway.”
Speaking of Qionghua, Lin Fengmian remembered that the woman in front of him was from a thousand years ago, and he didn’t know if she was alive or dead.
At this thought, he asked with a complex expression, “Senior Sister, do we have many enemies in Qionghua?”
After spending so much time with Luo Xue, he couldn’t bear to see her die like this.
Since he was in this time period, could he change anything?
“Why are you suddenly worried about this?” Xu Tingyu said in surprise.
“I’m just curious, if it’s uncomfortable to talk about, forget it,” Lin Fengmian said guiltily.
Xu Tingyu smiled gently and said, “There is nothing inconvenient. Although Qionghua Sect is highly respected and the only overlord in the Eastern Wilderness, our actions over the years have been too domineering, making us many enemies who are just waiting for the right moment.”
Lin Fengmian was shocked to learn that Qionghua had so many enemies; wasn’t that practically the whole world against them?
He had originally wanted to find clues to Qionghua’s downfall, but now he felt overwhelmed.
“Isn’t Qionghua in great danger? Why not take precautions earlier?”
Xu Tingyu covered her mouth and laughed, “Our master is one of the Nine Saints of Tianyuan, the Supreme Sword Master. Swordsmanship is known for its ferocity, who would dare to cause trouble in our Qionghua Sect?”
Lin Fengmian was astonished, what were the Nine Saints of Tianyuan? They sounded incredibly powerful.
He was full of doubts, if the Nine Saints of Tianyuan were so powerful, why did the Qionghua Sect still fall?
However, he didn’t dare to ask casually for fear that Xu Tingyu would figure out his true identity.
Seeing his worried expression, Xu Tingyu said, “Instead of worrying about that, why not think more about how to break through to the Great Ascension?”
Lin Fengmian didn’t even understand his own cultivation, let alone breaking through to Great Ascension, which was far beyond his current understanding.
“I haven’t figured it out yet.”
Xu Tingyu sighed and said, “Our master has high hopes for you. If you don’t find a way to break through this time, she plans to enter the Northern Abyss and kill the Northern Abyss Sword Saint to make way for you.”
