The Blood of Youth – CH 054

Chapter 54: Moonlit Night and Flowering Dawn

That day, Sword Immortal Li Hanyi stood on the Tower of Ascension and executed that sword, Moonlit Night and Flowering Dawn, gathering the camellia from all over the city. It could be called an ultimate sword move.

Today, his disciple, Lei Wujie, also executed that sword, Moonlit Night and Flowering Dawn, but there were neither flowers nor leaves. But, there was a surge of expansive moonlight!

The Rainfall sword reflected the expanse of moonlight and slashed at Song Yanhui, illuminating the entire path with a bright and cold light!

Song Yanhui chuckled and nodded with praise. “Beautiful. Indeed the sword of a sword immortal.

“I take back my words. You are indeed qualified to receive my sword.

“I will bestow the second half of the sword, Ten Thousand Torrents and a Thousand Crags!”

Song Yanhui drew forth his Broken Water sword again. Earlier, he only used half the sword aura, and now, it surged again, tearing through that wave of moonlight aggressively. Lei Wujie gritted his teeth, but he couldn’t have blocked that surge of sword aura. He was about to lose his grip on the Rainfall sword.

“But, you’re only worth one sword,” Song Yanhui remarked indifferently as he withdrew his Broken Water sword.

Lei Wujie raised his head, and his Rainfall sword flew out of his hand.

But it was caught by another person.

That person stepped on a leaf and arrived, one hand holding the Rainfall sword, the other holding Lei Wujie, who was about to collapse. Long white robes and a gray veil, armed with the famous sword, Armored Glacier.

“Shifu,” Lei Wujie called out weakly.

“How dare you utter the words imparted by sword immortal, Moonlit Night and Flowering Dawn? When did I teach you such a lousy sword technique? If word of this got out, your shifu, I, will have lost all my face in the martial world!” Although Li Hanyi was rebuking him, his tone was surprisingly calm.

“Shifu, I managed to draw Rainfall,” Lei Wujie admitted, forcing out a smile.

Li Hanyi snorted coldly. “So happy just because you drew your sword? How am I going to teach you more advanced sword arts in the future?”

“Shifu, I finally understand my purpose for drawing my sword…” Lei Wujie felt all his strength drain at once, and his eyes slid closed. “It’s to protect.” After speaking, Lei Wujie collapsed in a dead faint.

Li Hanyi exhaled a sigh and put him down.

“You have an excellent disciple,” Song Yanhui said slowly.

Li Hanyi shook his head slightly. “Sure enough, I should have expected this.”

Song Yanhui didn’t say anything else, but his grip tightened on his Broken Water sword. Because when Li Hanyi shook his head, he clearly emitted a killing aura.

“I heard you have a disciple who managed to open the Unrivaled Sword Magazine? And he’s cultivating the Thirteen Flying Swords technique?” Li Hanyi turned his head and asked.

Song Yanhui was taken aback, but he nodded and said, “Within five years, he will become a sword immortal.”

“Five years? Fine, then my disciple will become a sword immortal in three years!” Li Hanyi held up his Armored Glacier and declared arrogantly.

Song Yanhui retreated a step and said nothing.

“Song Yanhui, you have tried my sword three times and lost three times. This time, however, will be your last.” Li Hanyi held his sword and walked forward step by step.

“From today onwards, you will no longer have any delusions of ever defeating me.

“Do you know what you should do when you face the wrath of a sword immortal?

“Run.” Li Hanyi suddenly lowered his head and sighed.

Song Yanhui and Li Hanyi challenged their sword three times, but each time, they did not go as far as reaching a life-or-death situation. Hence, some people said that unless they truly fought to win or die, regardless of the consequences, it was impossible to judge the final result. But if anyone knew about their duel today, they would definitely have a result.

If they both went full out in a fight, Song Yanhui would definitely die!

Like Lei Wujie, Li Hanyi also seized that expanse of moonlight, but this wave of moonlight was no longer gentle but extremely dominating! His one sword blocked Song Yanhui’s sword power, another sword cut off Song Yanhui’s retreat, and the last sword annihilated Song Yanhui’s fighting intent.

That was a truly divine, unparalleled, and genuine sword of a sword immortal.

In Snow Moon City, Sunset Pavilion.

Sikong Changfeng, dressed in black robes, looked at Cangshan in the distance, where a cold light was shining. Slowly, he remarked, “Luoxia, have you ever seen the sword of a sword immortal’s wrath?”

“They say that supreme immortals are unfeeling. They’re neither happy nor angry, neither sad nor aggrieved. With the exception of the Wrath Sword Immortal, who made his name with his tyrannical sword, the others all appear to have a rather mild temper,” Yin Luoxia replied as she walked up next to Sikong Changfeng.

“That’s right. Because they’re not easily angered, so when they draw their sword in rage, they can destroy Heaven and Earth,” Sikong Changfeng said quietly. “This time, Hanyi is angry.”

“Because of Lei Wujie? Did Song Yanhui actually hurt Lei Wujie?” Yin Luoxia frowned slightly. Although she had only met Lei Wujie a few times, she rather appreciated the cheerful young man.

“I’m afraid it’s because Lei Wujie drew his sword, because he drew it for the reason Hanyi was most afraid of. Actually, Hanyi cares a lot about this disciple, because he’s been waiting for him for many years.” Sikong Changfeng sighed. “Luoxia, you and Song Yanhui once shared a history at Canglan River. He’s known as ‘one sword to break water,’ while you’re ‘one palm to break the river.’ Go and save him this once.

“Otherwise, the dignified citymaster of Unrivaled City will die in Snow Moon City today.”

Yin Luoxia nodded, and with a flying leap, she ran towards Cangshan. But she also had questions in her heart. With her abilities, could she stop an angry sword immortal?

Song Yanhui’s Broken Water sword had already fallen into Li Hanyi’s hand.

Li Hanyi held his Armored Glacier in his left hand and the Broken Water sword in his right hand and raised both his arms. He was about to execute his ultimate two-handed sword technique.

“Everyone knows that Wine Immortal Baili Dongjun once dominated the martial world with his two-handed sword and saber technique, but very few people have seen me, Li Hanyi, use the two-handed sword technique. Do you have any regrets dying under this sword?” Li Hanyi said coldly.

Song Yanhui spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and smiled sadly. “After challenging your sword today, I have no more regrets in my life.”

“You have been weighed down by a city. If you weren’t the citymaster of Unrivaled City, your cultivation would have progressed much further than you have today.” Li Hanyi sighed and prepared to execute his two-handed sword technique.

“Please show mercy!” Yin Luoxia shouted hurriedly when she saw the situation as she floated over from a distance.

But Li Hanyi did not stop, and his two swords rose into position in a slow and leisurely manner.

“No!” Yin Luoxia shouted. If the Unrivaled City Citymaster died tragically in Snow Moon City, the consequences would be disastrous!

Suddenly, Armored Glacier returned to its scabbard.

The Broken Water sword stabbed into the ground by Song Yanhui’s leg!

The sword light dissipated, and Song Yanhui remained unscathed. He had already closed his eyes and waited for death. He raised his head apathetically. “Why?”

Li Hanyi didn’t answer, turned around, and picked up Lei Wujie before he walked away slowly up the mountain.

“Very well. Your sword is the sword of a guardian, the same as your mother. Although this was the outcome I least wanted, this is who you should be. Because your father’s surname is Lei and your mother’s surname is Li, I accept this conclusion,” Li Hanyi whispered.

Yin Luoxia finally rushed to Song Yanhui’s side. Although he had physical injuries all over his body, he was still alive, and she unconsciously breathed a long sigh of relief. With her relief, she also couldn’t help but kick him anyway. “You’ve already tried three times and couldn’t win, yet you had to insist on trying again? Why are you so stubborn!”

Song Yanhui turned his back to her in silence. It wasn’t wrong to say that the person he was most afraid of in Snow Moon City was not actually the Snow Moon Sword Immortal who almost killed him just now, but this woman.
