Land Sword Immortal: Eighty Years as the Guardian of the Sword Pavilion

Chapter 53

Qian Lechi's pursuit of Li Xuerou was something Meng Fan was aware of.

Initially, he didn't take it to heart, believing that Li Xuerou had the freedom to love.

Whether she liked Qian Lechi or not was her own business.

But now things were different. This Qian Lechi had previously tried to harm him, and Meng Fan was not one to repay evil with kindness.

This Qian Lechi, Meng Fan would settle the score with him sooner or later!

"Meng Fan brother, you... you've actually reached the True Martial Realm?" Li Xuerou stared at Meng Fan, dumbfounded, her face a picture of disbelief.

How long had it been?

Just over three months without seeing each other, and Meng Fan brother had leapt over both the Qi Refining and True Martial barriers?

Last time they met, Meng Fan brother wasn't even at the Qi Cultivation Realm!

Li Xuerou had even shared some of her own resources to help Meng Fan with his cultivation.

But the former Meng Fan's aptitude was simply too poor, always unable to break through to the Qi Cultivation Realm, unable to refine the first strand of True Qi within his body.

Over time, Li Xuerou had lost hope in Meng Fan's cultivation.

Yet, after a few short months without seeing each other, upon meeting again, Meng Fan was already at the second layer of the True Martial Realm, which was utterly preposterous!

This forced Li Xuerou to be shocked.

"There's a senior in the Sword Pavilion who took great care of me and accepted me as a direct disciple," Meng Fan casually explained.

He planned to credit his excellence to Elder Lin.

Otherwise, it would be too troublesome to explain.

"That's wonderful!" Li Xuerou said excitedly.

Seeing Meng Fan become a cultivator at the second layer of the True Martial Realm, she genuinely felt happy for him.

Although they hadn't seen each other for a while, the bond they had from growing up together wouldn't just disappear so easily.

Meng Fan saw her as a sister, and she likewise saw Meng Fan as a brother.

It's just that after arriving at the Shu Mountain Sword Sect, under various pressures, she had to cultivate hard and couldn't stick to Meng Fan every day.

Previously unable to find Meng Fan, she had secretly cried several nights.

Now seeing Meng Fan appear suddenly, with his cultivation skyrocketing, she was truly overjoyed.

"Meng Fan brother, you said you're now a Guarding Sword Disciple at the Sword Pavilion?" Li Xuerou asked again.

"Yes," Meng Fan nodded.

"Then I'll often come to the Sword Pavilion to find you, and this time you must not disappear again," Li Xuerou said earnestly.

Meng Fan smiled, ruffled Li Xuerou's hair, and said, "Don't worry, I'll always be at the Sword Pavilion and won't leave!"

From a distance, Qian Lechi saw Meng Fan ruffling Li Xuerou's hair, and his head nearly exploded with anger.

Who in the Shu Mountain Sword Sect didn't know he was pursuing Li Xuerou?

This kid ruffling Li Xuerou's hair in front of him was a provocation!!

In fact, he was overthinking it; Meng Fan hadn't considered him at all from the beginning to the end.

"Meng Fan brother, I couldn't find you before, why didn't you come to find me?" She was somewhat dissatisfied about this.

"Uh... your place is the female dormitory, how could I just go there?" Meng Fan said somewhat awkwardly.

To be honest, after time traveling, although he knew he had a "sister" in the Shu Mountain Sword Sect, he couldn't say he felt any emotional or physical connection.

Even though he inherited "Meng Fan's" memories, to say he completely inherited his feelings was unlikely.

So if there was nothing important, he naturally wouldn't go looking for Li Xuerou.

After all, Meng Fan's current consciousness was still primarily that of Earth.

However, because he inherited the memories, Meng Fan wasn't unfamiliar with Li Xuerou, and when face to face, he still felt some familiarity and a bit of affection.

Regardless, in the eyes of the current Meng Fan, Li Xuerou was also an acquaintance!

"You just find me annoying!" Li Xuerou glared at Meng Fan.

"How could that be?" Meng Fan said, his words not matching his feelings.

Behind them, Qian Lechi watched Meng Fan and Li Xuerou "flirting" in front of him, his heart nearly leaping out of his chest with anger.

This guy was always Li Xuerou's shadow, following her wherever she went, like a stalker, extremely perverse.

Although he liked Li Xuerou, she didn't like him at all.

In Li Xuerou's eyes, this guy was one of the most annoying people!

After all, no one likes being followed all the time, even if it's done openly, it's very unpleasant.

"Oh, right, Elder Yang is still waiting for me to get a book, I need to hurry and get the book to find her," Li Xuerou slapped her forehead, saying somewhat annoyed.

"Meng Fan brother, I'll come to the Sword Pavilion to find you later."

Meng Fan nodded and said, "For the next while, I'll be at the Scripture Pavilion during the day, and only return to the Sword Pavilion at night."

"Then I'll come to the Scripture Pavilion to find you!" Li Xuerou said with a smile.

Then she took the book she needed and said goodbye to Meng Fan.

Meng Fan watched Li Xuerou's retreating figure and shook his head helplessly.

If possible, you'd better not come looking for me, it'll disturb my reading!

But such words, he didn't have the heart to say outright, as it would hurt feelings.

After Li Xuerou left, Qian Lechi, this shadow, did not follow her this time.

Instead, he came straight to Meng Fan.

"Is there something you want?" Meng Fan, who had just picked up a scroll, hadn't even opened it before he put it down again, looking coldly at Qian Lechi.

He naturally wouldn't show a good face to Qian Lechi.

"You, stay away from Junior Sister Xuerou from now on," Qian Lechi said darkly to Meng Fan.

"Why?" Meng Fan looked up, his face expressionless as he stared into Qian Lechi's eyes.

"There's no reason, you just need to do as told.

Otherwise, it won't be as simple as throwing you to the Sword Pavilion.

If I had known you were so ungrateful, I should have killed you right from the start!"

Meng Fan's brows furrowed slightly, not understanding why Qian Lechi was so arrogant in front of him.

He was now at the second layer of the True Martial Realm...

Thinking this, Meng Fan suddenly had a thought.

Li Xuerou could tell at a glance that he was at the second layer of the True Martial Realm, but this Qian Lechi probably couldn't see his realm at all.

This guy was far inferior to Li Xuerou!

Meng Fan roughly understood that, having practiced Fu Xi's visualization techniques, his mental strength was much stronger than ordinary people, surpassing Qian Lechi.

He had learned before that this Qian Lechi was at the fourth layer of the True Martial Realm.

So the most likely scenario was that a cultivator at the fourth layer of the True Martial Realm simply couldn't see through him.

This Qian Lechi was such a waste!

If Qian Lechi could see that Meng Fan was at the second layer of the True Martial Realm, knowing that Meng Fan had crossed both the Qi Refining and True Martial realms in such a short time, he definitely wouldn't look down on Meng Fan so arrogantly.

In a sense, ignorance is as useless as incompetence!

So Meng Fan looked coldly at Qian Lechi, his tone disdainful as he said, "Are you done?"

Qian Lechi also looked coldly at Meng Fan: "I'm done."

"Then get lost!"
