Fairy, Don't Be Afraid, I Am Blind

Chapter 154 - 120: Sword Intent Duel

The silent Zhou Changwen smiled calmly, with blazing battle intent in his eyes as he looked at You Su:

"However, as your senior, I have some arrogant pride. I am one year older than you, and my realm is slightly higher. I won’t take advantage of that, nor will I exploit it."

As he spoke, Zhou Changwen joined his fingers into a sword and tapped himself a couple of times, his momentum notably weakening a bit.

Every sword wielder has their own persistence, and You Su finally acknowledged today’s opponent.

Frankly speaking, You Su was never intimidated by Mr. Liu’s exaggerated tales about Zhou Changwen. His opponents along this journey had been Wu Cheng, Mr. Ling, Mr. Qi, and Mr. Liou of the Feather Transformation Realm. Each was more challenging and despair-inducing than the last, yet he survived and stood till the end. Now, how could he possibly fear a fellow Spirit Platform Perfection realm peer?

"It’s fine with me if we follow Mr. Zhou’s intentions."

You Su had already drawn his sword.

Mr. Liu glanced at Mr. Liu, and said calmly, "Mr. Liu, let’s begin, it comes down to just one sword."

With that, he rose with his sword, distancing himself from the duel platform.

Mr. Liu’s gaze lingered between the two, before sighing, and loudly declaring:

"Begin!"

In the arena, You Su had positioned the sword before him, forming a sword stance.

Zhou Changwen simply pulled out his precious sword, saying leisurely:

"Actually, the one supposed to spar with the junior today wasn’t me, but after witnessing the junior’s Sword Intent yesterday, I couldn’t help but feel the urge to spar with him and decided to take the stage myself."

"Today’s inquiry into the junior’s sword should not involve the sword peaks behind us. When the junior someday achieves mastery in Lotus Swordsmanship, we’ll represent our respective masters and have another battle. But, right now, I won’t use Red Rainbow Swordsmanship, I’ll face the junior’s Sword Intent directly with my own."

Zhou Changwen was composed; his confidence stemmed from being an innate sword physique. This non-physique possessing You Su, surprisingly grasped his Sword Intent at eighteen, which he saw as a challenge to his sword physique status, thus he decided to confront solely with Sword Intent.

For ultimate Sword Cultivators, Sword Intent is the true core. He must prove to his master and the world that in the Way of the Sword, the sword physique reigns supreme.

With each word he spoke, the Sword Qi around him sharpened, seemingly materializing, making the surrounding air cold.

You Su thought, "I believed those of the innate sword physique were ones of few words and little laughter."

You Su lowered himself, his black robe billowing.

Still, Zhou Changwen laughed freely, unmoved, immersed in wielding his sword’s spirit.

His sword was entirely silver, shimmering with ethereal aura; as his focus deepened, it began to change color until it burned red like a fiery coal, a soaring Sword Flame instantly enveloping the sword.

Some other true disciples far away, glimpsing the divine flame on the sword, had their breaths slightly taken. Imagining themselves in the Middle Spirit Platform Realm facing Zhou Changwen’s sword, most inwardly sighed with lowered brows, sensing little chance of victory.

Some female true disciples who thought You Su fairly attractive reminded their nearby masters to rescue You Su in time.

But You Su closed his eyes, solely focusing on brewing his Sword Intent.

His opponent’s sword may be the strongest he’s ever faced. He must unleash all his strength to combat it, including the divine spirit accumulated by the True Yang Sword Nurturing Spell.

Because he doesn’t want a draw, he wants to win!

Zhou Changwen stared unwaveringly at You Su, his sword momentum vast, as his Sword Intent reached its peak, he stepped forward. It was a simple chop, but like a volcanic eruption, a dazzling fire dragon slashed forth!

You Su did not dodge, absent the unexpected strike that felled Mr. Liou, this would be his strongest sword strike in wakefulness! All his strength was devoted to this sword, the Don’t Be Afraid Sword Intent burst forth from the Mo Song Sword, earth-shaking!
