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

Chapter 59 – Supreme Heartless Sword reappears!

Meng Fan, despite having spent many years at the Shu Mountain Sword Sect, could hardly count any acquaintances.

The moment he heard the voice, he knew it was Liu Yanping.

The Shu Mountain Sword Sect wasn't large, and it didn't have many members. Moreover, the most numerous Menial Disciples had no right to be here.

So, it wasn't an exaggeration for Liu Yanping to spot Meng Fan in the crowd.

Besides, Meng Fan's face was indeed quite noticeable among the masses.

"Liu Senior Sister!" Meng Fan turned around and greeted Liu Yanping.

Just as Meng Fan had expected, Liu Yanping had indeed broken through to the third layer of the True Martial Realm.

The last time they met, everyone was at the second layer of the True Martial Realm. Now, two months later, Liu Yanping was only two realms behind him, which showed she was still exceptionally talented.

"Meng Fan, who do you think will win this Shu Mountain Swordsmanship Competition?" Liu Yanping asked casually, as if they were old friends.

In fact, she and Meng Fan were quite familiar with each other.

"I heard it's probably going to be the Kunlun Sword Sect," Meng Fan whispered.

Such words, if overheard by fellow disciples of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect, might provoke anger, as everyone had a strong sense of sect unity.

People like Meng Fan, who seemed to boost the morale of others, were often looked down upon!

"Heard? Who did you hear it from?" Liu Yanping asked with a frown, her curiosity piqued.

"Senior Disciple Jin from the Scripture Pavilion. He said that this time the Kunlun Sword Sect has a guy named Jiang Poyue who's very strong, a rare match for his peers," Meng Fan relayed Senior Disciple Jin's opinion.

"Is that so? That's troublesome," Liu Yanping said with a hint of helplessness.

"What's the matter? This Shu Mountain Swordsmanship Competition is just an exchange between sects. Winning or losing doesn't seem that important," Meng Fan casually remarked.

"How can it not be important? It's very important!!! I've bet a thousand Spirit Stones on the Shu Mountain Sword Sect winning," Liu Yanping confessed in a low voice.

A thousand Spirit Stones?

Meng Fan looked at Liu Yanping in surprise. Was this the boldness of a rich woman?

He wouldn't dare to bet a thousand Spirit Stones.

No, that's not right. He didn't even have a thousand Spirit Stones to bet. It wasn't a matter of daring.

"Don't worry too much. Senior Disciple Jin just mentioned it in passing. He spends all day in the Scripture Pavilion and hasn't gone out to gain experience. His information might not be accurate," Meng Fan tried to console her.

Liu Yanping chuckled, "Are you trying to comfort me? What's there to worry about? It's just a thousand Spirit Stones. I can afford to lose!"

Meng Fan fell silent.

Alright, he was being overly sentimental.

The mindset of a rich woman was not something he could compare with.

"By the way, now that you've reached the third layer of the True Qi Realm, have you sought revenge against that Limitless Sword Sect disciple?"

Meng Fan looked towards the Heaven-Connecting Platform where the Limitless Sword Sect's area was, and casually brought up Liu Yanping's matter.

Liu Yanping's expression turned awkward as she said, "I've just broken through to the third layer of the True Martial Realm a few days ago and was planning to seek revenge in the next few days. Luckily, I haven't gone yet, or it would have been another humiliation!"

"What do you mean?" Meng Fan looked at her curiously.

"Look at the third row on the left on the Heaven-Connecting Platform, the second person from the Limitless Sword Sect in black," Liu Yanping pointed out.

"Smashed, he's your nemesis?" Meng Fan asked jokingly.

To his surprise, Liu Yanping nodded, "You guessed right, it's him!"

Meng Fan raised an eyebrow. Those on the platform were core disciples of the three sects, starting from the Heavenly Origin Realm.

"Didn't you say he was only a little stronger than you? Are you sure someone of the Heavenly Origin Realm is only a little stronger?" Meng Fan said with a wry smile.

"He must have been concealing his strength back then. How could I have known?" Liu Yanping said with a helpless look.

Meng Fan shook his head, "It's not about hiding strength. It's that he didn't need to use his full power to deal with you."

"Why do you always have to speak so unpleasantly?" Liu Yanping rolled her eyes.

"What's the use of being pleasant? It's not like I'll gain an extra piece of flesh," Meng Fan shrugged nonchalantly.

"You won't gain an extra piece of flesh, but you could gain an extra Spirit Stone. Just say 'Sister, I was wrong,' and I'll give you a Spirit Stone," Liu Yanping glared at Meng Fan.

"Sister, I was wrong!" Meng Fan said without hesitation.

A mosquito's leg is still meat; calling her sister and admitting a mistake wouldn't cost him a piece of flesh.

"Good boy!" Liu Yanping immediately took out a Spirit Stone and handed it to Meng Fan.

Meng Fan, of course, didn't refuse and quickly pocketed it.

"However, since the opponent is a core disciple of the Heavenly Origin Realm, it seems you have little hope of revenge in the short term," Meng Fan said sympathetically.

Not every cultivator of the Heavenly Origin Realm could condense Sword Intent.

But core disciples from the three major sects were all exceptionally talented youths, and such individuals were likely to have already mastered Sword Intent.

Although Liu Yanping had mastered Sword Intent, she still had no chance against that Limitless Sword Sect disciple and was sure to be utterly defeated.

"I don't need you to tell me that. I'm well aware. After that Limitless Sword Sect disciple arrived at the Shu Mountain Sword Sect, I've already inquired about him. His name is Liu Feixing, a cultivator of the second layer of the Heavenly Origin Realm."

Mentioning the second layer of the Heavenly Origin Realm, Liu Yanping seemed deflated, losing her spirit.

Meng Fan shook his head imperceptibly. For Liu Yanping, there was no need to inquire.

No matter which layer of the Heavenly Origin Realm, she had no hope.

Even a first-layer cultivator could easily hang her up and beat her!

"I may have no hope, but what about you, you monstrosity? Can you beat him?" Liu Yanping suddenly asked Meng Fan.

Meng Fan rolled his eyes and said with a bitter smile, "Big sister, I'm just a little cultivator at the fifth layer of the True Martial Realm. You're asking me to fight someone of the Heavenly Origin Realm? Are you joking?"

"That's true... Wait, what did you say? You're at the fifth layer of the True Martial Realm?" Liu Yanping was dumbfounded.

Ever since she met Meng Fan, the expression of being dumbfounded had almost become her signature emoji.

"Last time we met, you were at the second layer of the True Martial Realm. How long has it been, less than three months?" Liu Yanping blinked, not to act cute, but because she was so shocked she couldn't control her eyelids.

Her expression management was completely out of control!

"It's just the fifth layer of the True Martial Realm, not the fifth layer of the Heavenly Origin Realm. What are you excited about?" Meng Fan said indifferently.

"You monstrosity!!!" Liu Yanping was at a loss for words.

"Don't talk, your nemesis is up," Meng Fan told Liu Yanping.

Liu Yanping looked up at the Heaven-Connecting Platform.

That core disciple of the Limitless Sword Sect named Liu Feixing had already entered the competition arena.

His opponent at the moment was a core disciple of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect.

"Who is this Shu Mountain Sword Sect Senior Brother facing Liu Feixing?" Meng Fan didn't recognize this core disciple of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect.

"It's Senior Brother Yang Yang. I hope Senior Brother Yang can avenge me and give Liu Feixing a good thrashing," Liu Yanping said angrily.

"There should be hope," Meng Fan said offhandedly.

This Senior Brother Yang Yang had just won a match, proving he had some strength.

Defeating someone of the second layer of the Heavenly Origin Realm shouldn't be a problem, right?

After all, the minimum for core disciples was the first layer of the Heavenly Origin Realm, and the second layer wasn't considered strong in this context.

But then again, those starting the matches were probably of the first or second layer of the Heavenly Origin Realm, and the stronger ones wouldn't take the stage so early.

It was an unspoken rule, as the lower realm disciples also needed to gain experience.

If you're a fifth-layer cultivator of the Heavenly Origin Realm and you rush up eagerly, even if you win, it's not a good look!

"What realm is this Senior Brother Yang Yang?" Meng Fan asked Liu Yanping.

Liu Yanping, like a young lady, was much more informed than him.

"Senior Brother Yang Yang just became a core disciple a few months ago. He's probably at most at the second layer of the Heavenly Origin Realm, or even possibly the first layer," Liu Yanping said helplessly.

"Then the chances are probably not great!" Meng Fan decisively changed his statement.

Because he had just been watching Senior Brother Yang Yang's Sword Technique.

Although Senior Brother Yang Yang had won the previous match, his swordsmanship was not particularly brilliant.

He might have focused more on cultivation!

Such people, while they may advance quickly in cultivation, are not strong among their peers.

However, whether Liu Feixing was strong or weak was also unknown. Maybe he was even weaker?

After Liu Feixing took the stage, he immediately engaged in combat with Yang Yang.

"Meng Fan, watch Liu Feixing's Sword Technique carefully and look for the flaws in his swordplay. Although I'm not his match now, I must seek revenge in the future!" Liu Yanping said angrily.

"Okay."

Meng Fan had already observed Yang Yang's swordplay in the previous match, so he would definitely focus more on Liu Feixing this time.

But as soon as Liu Feixing made his move, Meng Fan was stunned.

"What are you dazing off for? Watch carefully!" Liu Yanping, seeing Meng Fan zoning out, hurriedly reminded him.

Meng Fan gave a wry smile and came back to his senses.

"Don't worry, I'll definitely help you find the loopholes in his swordplay," Meng Fan said with a complex tone.

Meng Fan had indeed been shocked just now, not because Liu Feixing's swordplay was so strong, but because he was very familiar with this Sword Technique!

In the entire Heavenly Sword Sect, Meng Fan should only be familiar with one Sword Technique.

That was the Supreme Heartless Sword he had seen in the Sword Wraith Memory of the Dark Wind Sword.

In that memory, Meng Fan had witnessed the current Clan Master of the Limitless Sword Sect, Li Qingyun, slaying his own wife and child with a sword.

His wife was already pregnant at the time.

To master the true Supreme Heartless Sword, Li Qingyun could go to such a cruel and insane extent!

Ever since he saw that memory, Meng Fan had thought more than once that when he became powerful, he would slay Li Qingyun with his own sword to pay tribute to the poor wife and the unborn child in her womb.

Although Meng Fan had obtained the seed of the Supreme Heartless Sword Technique and Supreme Heartless Sword Intent from the Sword Wraith Memory of the Dark Wind Sword, he had never thought of cultivating this Sword Technique.

He felt that this Sword Technique was so "harmful to the heavens."

Such a sword technique should not exist in the world!

The Liu Feixing on the Heaven-Connecting Platform was displaying the Supreme Heartless Sword.

Of course, his execution of the Supreme Heartless Sword was only in form, lacking the essence!

He was far from truly mastering the Supreme Heartless Sword.

To master it, one must truly become heartless and ruthless.

That's difficult.

Unless Liu Feixing could also personally kill someone who was the dearest and most important to him!
