Chapter 227 - 227: The Dao Fruit Evolves into the Divine Sword Body, The Sword Bell Rings Three Times (1)
Su Muzhe didn’t know what kind of talent this handsome and even slightly demonic youth in front of her had in the Sword Dao that could make the Sword Dao prodigy Zhao Huangting, who had stunned the entire world back then, admire him so much.
He even said that the young man was the hope of the Sword Pool Palace.
Even if he bore the burden of Green Mountain, it was still unknown how far he could go and how far he could grow. What right did he have to think that the young man would become the hope of the Sword Pool Palace?
The hope of the Sword Pool Palace… was that another tenth-realm Sword Sage would be born.
Could An Le do it?
Su Muzhe didn’t know, but she believed in Zhao Huangting, just like when she was ignorant back then. She trusted him unconditionally. Even though 500 years had passed, she hadn’t changed.
“Alright.’
Su Muzhe smiled.
Zhao Huangting said that An Le was the hope of the Sword Pool Palace, so she believed him.
Looking at the trust in the eyes of the no longer young woman, Zhao Huangting’s heart couldn’t help but tremble.
That trust made his shoulders heavy and his heart stifled. “Let’s go. Let’s pack up and go straight to the Sword Pool Palace.”
“I don’t have much time.”
Zhao Huangting avoided the woman’s gaze and looked at the sparkling lake outside the window.
Su Muzhe didn’t refuse. She raised her hand and tapped between her eyebrows.
An Le could feel that the entire River Gathering Restaurant seemed to be constantly trembling and swaying from the impact of a hurricane. Then, clanging sounds could be heard continuously as sword after sword whistled out of the sword qi palace between Su Muzhe’s brows.
“Now that you’ve sealed the Nirvana Fire with your mental power, your body can’t withstand the fatigue and bumps. Let’s ride this Sword River and go straight to the Sword Pool Palace.”
Su Muzhe said to Zhao Huangting gently.
“Leave the carriage at River Gathering Restaurant. Mei Niang will help take care of it. That horse will also be well fed.” Su Muzhe said.
Zhao Huangting didn’t refuse. A sword came over and supported his body. Su Muzhe sat on it sideways and rode on the same sword as Zhao Huangting.
The sword qi suddenly whistled out and wrapped around the two of them. At the window of the third floor of the River Gathering Restaurant, they soared into the sky like white cranes spreading their wings.
The sunlight shone brightly on the old man and woman riding the sword. A smile appeared on the woman’s lips as if she hoped to stop time at this moment.
An Le, Lin Qingyin, and Lin Zhuifeng were all supported by swords.
They did not resist and allowed the sword to carry them out of River Gathering
Restaurant.
The huge Jiangling Prefecture City appeared below. Countless flying swords soared through the sky like migrating birds. They were densely packed like a horizontal sword river.
Many people in the city looked up. There were ordinary people, cultivators, and some people who had followed them all the way from Lin’an and were carrying ill intentions.
However, under the pressure of this female Sword God, who wasn’t inferior to Li You’an at all, these cultivators with ill intentions could only put away their unwillingness.
An Le’s white clothes fluttered as he sat upright on the sword. He could feel that every sword around him seemed to contain divine intent, as if they were connected to the female Sword God’s mind.
The sword had a spirit. A person controlling ten thousand swords was like a shepherd shepherding sheep.
This female Sword God was a sword herder.
After leaving the Jiangling Prefecture, they continued forward. The scenery of Shu Lands began to jump into their eyes. The scenery that was like the work of a ghost made everyone sitting on the flying sword and admiring the mountains and rivers below feel relaxed and happy.
The surging river, the continuous but rugged mountain peaks, and all kinds of strange precipice were frequently dotted between the mountains and rivers.
An Le was dazzled. Even cultivators felt insignificant in front of nature’s godly workmanship.
The sword river flew for almost two hours. The female Sword God, Su Muzhe, rode many swords, broke through the clouds and went down the sea of clouds.
A huge city immediately came into view. The prosperity of that city was not inferior to the Jiangling Prefecture at all. In fact, it was even better.
An Le knew that this was the famous Jinguan City in the Shu Lands. The Sword Pool Palace was located in this beautiful city.
The sword light landed in Jinguan City, stirring up a breeze that blew in all directions. Hibiscus flowers bloomed in the city, and the world was filled with a pleasant fragrance.
Jinguan City had a long history and had existed for a long time. It was an ancient city that was not inferior to Lin’an at all. As one walked, one could feel that the scenery in the city was very different.
It was drizzling, and the drizzle was as moist as a pastry. When it landed on one’s body, it was not cold, as if it was nourishment that brought hope to the world.
Stepping on the moss-covered limestone road, An Le bathed in the spring rain and walked calmly in this ancient city. The commoners in the city came and went. Every commoner seemed to be carrying a sword at their waist. No matter what kind of sword, iron sword, wooden sword, bamboo sword… there were all kinds of swords.
It seemed that… in this city, if he did not wear a sword, he would seem very outdated.
“This is the style of Jinguan City. The Sword Pool Palace and Jinguan City have existed together for a long time. This city has long fused with the Sword Pool Palace. It can be said that… Jinguan City is the Sword Pool Palace, and the
Sword Pool Palace is Jinguan City.”
“Even the Great Zhao Dynasty can’t control this city.”
Zhao Huangting seemed to have seen the surprise in An Le’s eyes and said with a smile.
“The Sword Pool Palace is most famous for swords. Therefore, everyone in Jinguan City has a sword. They naturally have the aura of a swordsman..”
