Rise of the Great Emperor

Chapter 346: Returning to Sun Kingdom

"Tianze..." Master Huo repeated the name before nodding. "That’s indeed very suitable for it."

The sword had cooled down and the red color had completely disappeared. Instead of red, it now turned to blue, which was far suited the word Lake Glass even more. The surface was smooth and clearly reflected the light around it.

Beautiful and sharp.

Lin Xiao smiled and picked the sword up. He felt as if he could hear the sword itself was calling at him. It was such a weird feeling but before long, he noticed the aura of the sword had calmed down considerably and then it settled down, looking no different than ordinary sword.

"Having specialized treasured sword like that might prevent you from understanding Sword Intent," Princess Lan Yi Hua suddenly remarked.

"Sword intent?"

"It’s often termed as Sword Qi too. It’s the Qi that’s formed because of your understanding of your own weapon." Princess Lan Yi Hua took out her own twin swords. As she closed her eyes and then opening it once more, there was sharp aura around her, one that was completely different from Qi.

Lin Xiao looked at Princess Lan Yi Hua in astonishment before he looked at his own sword. Right, since he could already sense his own sword’s movement and felt it was part of him thanks to the connection made by the blood and Qi connection, it might instead stop him from understanding Sword Qi.

He had never tried to understand one if he had to be honest as he merely used the sword as a weapon and not understanding that deeply.

Master Huo laughed. "Don’t worry. It’ll be nothing more than an ordinary sword without Sword Qi. The only reason why it reacted just now is because it just formed. But for Master Lin to fully unleash the sword’s capability, he would need to understand Sword Qi."

And it might take a long time.

Princess Lan Yi Hua nodded. "That’s good then."

Looking at the two of them, Master Huo smiled lightly and waved his hand. He glanced at his disciple. "Now that the matter is done, you should be ready to leave."

"Yes, Master!" Hu Fei glanced at Prince Lin Yan and grinned. "Don’t miss me."

Prince Lin Yan arched his eyebrows. "Why should I miss you?"

"Damn you!"

"See you sometime in the future."

"Tsk."

They talked a bit more before they walked out of the room. Princess Lan Yi Hua glanced once more in the direction of Marquis Hu but said nothing. They could talk again in the future when she formally returns to Hua Lan Kingdom.

Prince Lin Yan looked at the group. "We’re returning to Sun Kingdom."

"Already?" Lin Xiao was stunned.

"First, you’ll be visiting your lake. Secondly, it’s time for your practice in the areas within Sun Kingdom since there’s no more any good betting place for the time being." Prince Lin Yan squinted his eyes.

They had been eliminating the useless young masters so far and it would take a few more years before they had more people who would participate. During this time, there wouldn’t be anyone who could use this method to train.

Not like everyone liked to bet with their lives either.

The group rested for the day and left the day afterwards. During the journey, Lin Xiao spent his time understanding more of Recovery Lake Technique and also Calming Heart Technique. The two technique would be vital for him in the future.

And after several days of journey, the sight of the familiar mountain felt really good for Lin Xiao.

"I wonder how the others’ condition now."

"Let’s come in."

"Mhm."

Entering the cave, Lin Xiao suddenly stopped. He could see there were several people lying for an ambush in front of them. Since they were still quite a distance away and the cave was dark, it was clear that the other party would not recognize them.

Lin Xiao raised his hand and signaled for them to make formation.

Princess Lan Yi Hua, Prince Lin San, and Xia Ye recognized it as the sign that Lin Xiao used back when they were in the cave and prevented other people from coming in. They lightly grinned to each other and swiftly moved.

"They found us!" Lin Yun screamed.

"Damn! I have told you that my skill to hide in the darkness is bad but you still want us to hide!" Han Jiang cursed and then rushed forward, his body moved like a large bull that had nothing to hold it back.

"Tsk." Lu Jian clicked his tongue before he started singing. His poor singing still hadn’t improved in the slightest bit, making those who heard him grimaced.

On the other hand, Fan Ling had taken out her fan and swiftly moved.

Lin Xiao felt that being the receiving end of Lu Jian’s attack always felt weird. Unfortunately, such restriction was nothing for him. He lightly muttered under his breath, "Break!"

The word said in Dragon Word completely broke the restriction that was placed on him. Lin Xiao’s body swiftly moved.

Moon Evasion!

Moving right behind Lin Yun, he noticed his younger brother also noticed him and raised his hand. A pouch was on his left hand while his right hand was holding his sword.

’A poison?’

Lin Xiao had been practicing Calming Heart Technique and now facing the sudden danger of being killed by his younger brother’s poison, he swiftly readied his sword before the chilling aura spread.

Chilling Lake Sword, Sixth Stance!

Bang!

Before Lin Yun’s attack could even reach Lin Xiao, he discovered that the other party had already attacked. Putting his own sword in defensive position, his face turned strange as he was pushed to the back.

His life was not in any danger as the attack was directed at his side and not at him. Not to mention... that technique felt familiar.

"Brother?"

Lin Xiao merely grinned at his brother’s greeting. "If I have been a real enemy, you would have died, Lin Yun."
