Lord Shadow

Azief was calm even as he watches Feng Xiao breath his last breath in such a painful experience. His lung already collapsed and all he breathes is nothing.

Xu Meng roars with anger, as her voice echoes endlessly in the cave. Azief only shakes his head. She pointed her blade at him and then charged forward

‘I WILL KILL YOU!’

Without any sense, she attacked Azief when the rational and logical move is to run away from this cave.

It was a baleful aura coming out from the woman sword.

Her internal energy was swirling all over her sword. Azief eyebrows rise up indicating he was intrigued.

But Azief now could sense internal energy and as such he could sense something is wrong with her internal energy.

The internal energy of that woman is chaotic and full of perversity. Like it has been corrupted. There are too many impurities

Could she have cultivated some other styles of internal skill than people like Xi Feng?

Azief could then understand the classification of energy in this world with this one deduction.

There must be a reason why they were called the demonic path. Azief thought. Then he erases that thought as he said

‘Xi Feng!’ he said as he deflected that forceful attack as easy as he was waving his sleeve.

On the other side Yu Rong was about to flee as he operates his lightness skill to flew out of the cave.

Azief see all of this easily

Xi Feng on the other hand was shocked to hear his name and nodded

‘Yes, expert’ Azief hearing that frowned a bit.

They kept calling him an expert or some old fart.

How could he stand it?

For someone like him, that like making theatric entrance, he needs a domineering name.

But his real name did not suit this world. 

And he did not know how long he would stay in this world.

The moment his Law Body could comprehend the Laws he would be free and that could be quite a long time or a short time depending on his own Will.

If not for today, he would have to wait a little while longer for the seal to even move.

In other words, he owes Xi Feng for his enlightenment. If not for Xi Feng leading these people into the cave, he would not have the chance to realizes his new discovery.

He knows then Karma has bene formed between him and that young man.

He then thought of an idea. And there is a smile on his face

His mind is quick of thinking of this kind of things.

After all, he had bene stranded in many worlds and multiverse before. Like before, he just had to create a new persona for himself just like before.

And he just had the right persona. He already understands a bit of the culture of this world.

Azief then said to Xi Feng

‘Young hero, I do not remember who I am. I only remember a fragment of my memory. But if you did not mind having me as your teacher, kowtow to me’ Azief kept his word simple and decisive.

Whether Xi Feng accept or not is not his concern. This offer is him trying to balance karma between them

Xi Feng hearing this was flabbergasted.

First, he was shocked that this expert did not remember who he is.

Though he did hear that there are some martial arts that made one forget one own existence like teaching of the Temple of Xi.

Secondly, he did not expect that expert would give him the offer to be under his tutelage.

Xi Feng lost his teacher a long time ago when he was still a teenager during the massacre of his sect.

And while that teacher did teach him many sword skills he was not a personal disciple or even the most loved one.

But that did not mean he hated his teacher.

After that he wander through Jianghu and had many fortuitous encounter which gave him the moniker Sword Gentleman by the List of Swordsman.

But out of all his fortuitous encounter, of all the expert he met none of them have ever gave him the offer to become their disciple.

Most of them cited him as to naïve and to rigid, lacking in flexibility. There is also the reason that his aptitude was lacking

He opens the school of martial arts in part of that.

He wanted to spread the teachings of the Heaven and Gate sect but he also wanted to temper his rigidness, to ply and made himself more amendable.

So, the moment he heard the expert offering him discipleship, he did not hesitate even for one second. He put down his sword, and kowtow three times to the expert

‘Disciple greet Sword Immortal!’ He said, his voice was full of enthusiasm and excitement that could not be described by words

Azief heard the way Xi Feng refer to him and he smirks a bit

‘Sword Immortal?’ Then he nodded inwardly

‘I like that moniker’ he thought to himself.

He was about to say something else to Xi Feng but Xu Meng wanted to chop of his leg.

Azief only snorted as he uses his branch stick to deflect it.

Xu Meng is now being ruled by her emotions.

If she is in her rational mind she would have flee.

But seeing the only lover that could accept her, dying in his own pool of blood, she lost all sense.

She was consumed by her manic rage and throw any of her senses out of her mind as she tries to kill Azief.

But there is one other person in this cave and he did not yet lose his senses.

From the moment he almost met Death, he sobered up.

But he did not dare flee when the expert was so close to him.

It wasn’t until Xu Meng had fallen into her own manic rage that Yu Rong finally saw an opportunity.

He quickly leaps up and he was almost at the entrance

But nothing escapes Azief eyes.

And now that he had a basic understanding of the internal energy he could not wait to test out his understanding.

And who better to use it to than to Yu Rong?

Azief snorted and he made a grabbing motion with his hand.

WHOOSH!

The wind from the outside push Yu Rong who was about to flew outside the cave to the inside once again, his feet is being dragged to Azief by some invisible force that is pulling him.

Xi Feng and Yu Rong were both stupefied.

This kind of powerful internal energy that it even affects the physical world.

Other than Immortal Tian, the Demonic Monarch Xie of Thirty-Six Cave and Abbot of the Temple of the Xi, none of them have ever saw such powerful internal energy.

Xi Feng himself did not expect that the one he just acknowledges as his teacher have such capability that rivals the greatest grandmaster of martial arts.

Yu Rong on the other hand, had the premonition that his ending would not be good the moment he got caught by the expert.

And he was right.

The moment Azief made that grabbing motion, he had intended to kill Yu Rong.

All of this took a long time to describe but it happens only a split second of each other.

Xu Meng made her strike, he deflected, Yu Rong flew, he made his grabbing motion, and Yu Rong flew back.

All in all, it took about five second for all of this to happen.

Suddenly before Yu Rong could think of a way to break from this suffocating internal energy, he felt something on his head.

To his horrors, he found that his head is being hold tightly by that expert hand
