Chapter 45: Senior, What Is The Sword Dao?

Cloud Mist Mountain Range.

Looking at the young man who was walking over, Su Changyu was still in a dumbfounded state.

He had suddenly encountered cultivators of the Four Thunder Swordsmanship Sect.

The other party was extremely enthusiastic and even gave Daoist Tai Hua a pill when they saw that he was injured. That was simply absurd.

‘They might have great morals, but this is a stretch.’

Su Changyu was not a fool. He could tell that they seemed a bit restrained and tense when facing him, especially Wang Yu and Chen Hua.

Their occasional glances made Su Changyu genuinely flustered.

‘Are they really attracted to my good looks?’

‘What is this young man doing running towards me?’

‘Is he trying to matchmake us?’

‘Wow.’

Su Changyu got even more nervous.

However, the more nervous he was, the more arrogant he appeared.

His arrogance was also the reason that they found him mysterious.

In the beginning, the disciples of the Four Thunder Swordsmanship Sect didn’t know what was going on, but after some careful inspection, a few disciples soon figured out what was going on.

They were all elites of the sect who had the support of the elders. Hence, they naturally knew about the inspection commander of Jin Nation.

In fact, two or three of them had seen the portrait.

The young man in front of Su Changyu was clearly one of those who had seen the portrait.

He looked handsome, but he was far inferior compared to Su Changyu. He was a little nervous too and even felt pressurized when he walked towards Su Changyu.

However, since he had already walked over, he no longer had any burden.

“Senior, seems like you’re a Sword Dao cultivator too. Recently, I’ve been thinking hard about the Sword Dao and I really can’t figure it out at all. Senior, can you give me some guidance?”

The young man sounded rather nervous.

Knowing that Su Changyu was the inspection commander and the top Sword Dao cultivator of Jin Nation, he was obviously nervous.

Daoist Chen Hua and Daoist Wang Yu, who were at the side, couldn’t help but have a change of expression.

In particular, Daoist Wang Yu secretly frowned, thinking that the young man was too reckless to have asked such a question.

The Sect Leader might have instructed them to ask about knowledge of the Sword Dao whenever possible.

However, he could not be too direct about it.

‘Don’t you know how to proceed step by step?’

‘If you ask others to give you guidance immediately, won’t it be awkward?’

‘Even if you’re not embarrassed, I’m embarrassed for your sake.’

Daoist Wang Yu was a little angry because he felt that his disciple was too reckless.

‘Don’t you know that Su Changyu will see through this easily?’

On the other hand, Daoist Chen Hua didn’t get angry and simply looked at them with his eyes full of envy.

He was feeling extremely bitter. He really wanted to display his strength in front of Su Changyu, but he dared not do so.

“Uh… Fellow Daoists, heal my injuries but don’t fumble about.”

At this moment, Daoist Tai Hua spoke up. He felt a little embarrassed because although they were helping him heal his injuries, their random touching made him feel uncomfortable.

Not far away, Su Changyu was a little confused. No, he was very dumbfounded.

‘You’re a disciple of the Four Thunder Swordsmanship Sect and judging from your attire, you seem to be an inner sect disciple. Yet, you’re asking for pointers?’

‘Are you humiliating me?’

Su Changyu was indeed a little puzzled.

Seeing how cold and silent Su Changyu was, the young man got even more nervous.

“Senior… please give me some guidance.”

Hanging his head low, he dared not make direct eye contact with Su Changyu and deep down, he was very flustered. He also regretted being reckless.

“What do you want to ask?”

Seeing that the scene was gradually becoming awkward, Su Changyu was clear that he couldn’t keep feigning ignorance. Hence, he spoke up coldly in a bid to see what question the young man wanted to ask.

If it was a more profound question, he would continue feigning ignorance, but if it was a simple question, he would give a perfunctory answer.

The young man was obviously pleased to hear that.

He asked earnestly but fearfully, “I’d like to ask, what is the Sword Dao?”

The young man asked the familiar question.

‘What is the Sword Dao?’

Su Changyu was stunned. He was familiar with that question too.

That was exactly the same question that he asked Ye Ping.

However, everyone couldn’t help but look at Su Changyu at this moment.

Even Daoist Wang Yu and Daoist Chen Hua couldn’t help but look at Su Changyu.

They were curious as to how Su Changyu would answer this question.

‘What is the Sword Dao?’

Although it was a simple question, it was meaningful.

At this moment, Daoist Tai Hua could not help but look at Su Changyu.

He knew how competent he and his disciple, Su Changuyu, were. Somehow feeling embarrassed, he closed his eyes and pretended to be treating his injuries.

Not far away, Su Changyu looked at this disciple and then slowly answered.

“A blade of grass is the Sword Dao.”

Everyone was stunned after hearing what he said.

They couldn’t understand what it meant.

Daoist Wang Yu and Daoist Chen Hua were both confused, let alone the disciples.

After hearing this, Daoist Tai Hua somehow felt embarrassed. He was so embarrassed that he wished he could dig a hole in the ground and hide in it.

“Senior, can you be more specific? I’m not bright.”

The young man didn’t understand, but he didn’t suspect that Su Changyu was not a Sword Dao expert. Instead, he continued to ask attentively.

However, Su Changyu glanced at him and couldn’t help but compare him to Ye Ping.

Indeed, there was a huge difference between an average person and a genius.

Wang Yu and Chen Hua ignored Su Changyu’s action. They naturally understood what Su Changyu was thinking and they couldn’t help but be emotional.

However, at this moment, Su Changyu’s voice sounded again.

Su Changyu slowly put his hands behind his back, and his gaze became stern while his aura surged.

“Cutting through the sun, moon, and stars with a single blade of grass is the Sword Dao.”

His voice was not loud, but it was full of penetrating power.

His voice seemed to explode in their ears like thunder.

There was silence.

Everything seemed extremely quiet.

All the disciples of the Four Thunder Swordsmanship Sect were stunned.

Daoist Wang Yu and Daoist Chen Hua were stunned too.

Su Changyu’s words were too tyrannical.

‘Cutting through everything in the universe with one move?’

‘How terrifying is this kind of Sword Dao?’

‘Is this the real Sword Dao?’

The disciples were dumbfounded.

Daoist Wang Yu and Daoist Chen Hua were stunned too.

Even Daoist Tai Hua was shocked.

He really didn’t expect his eldest disciple to be able to say such domineering things.

‘Cutting through everything in the universe with one blade of grass?’

‘Who can imagine how strong such an existence is?’

Everyone couldn’t help but think of such a scene.

Su Changyu picked up a blade of grass and chopped it down casually while the sun, moon and stars in the sky shattered.

There was silence.

No one wanted to wake up.

Su Changyu’s words seemed to have enlightened them and given them a new perception of the Sword Dao.

In their eyes, if one could slash a mountain with one move of the sword, they would be considered a peerless powerhouse.

However, cutting through the sun, moon and stars with a single blade of grass was simply beyond their knowledge of the Sword Dao.

“Senior, I’ve become enlightened.”

At this moment, the young man standing in front of Su Changyu suddenly spoke and bowed to him.

Su Changyu was a little stunned.

‘What did you get enlightened about?’

‘You can get enlightenment from this?’

‘Do you think you’re my little Junior Brother Ye Ping?’

Su Changyu was indeed a bit confused.

‘You can comprehend something that I made up?’

However, before Su Changyu could react…

The young man in front of him suddenly trembled and a familiar sword momentum appeared.

Boom.

Thunder rumbled and everyone got a great shock.

Su Changyu was the only one who remained composed and that was the reason that he seemed even more like an aloof peerless expert. His eyes were calm and he looked formidable.

“He actually comprehended the Summer Thunder sword momentum.”

“Ah, he comprehended the Summer Thunder sword momentum?”

By the time the crowd snapped back to their senses, some disciples couldn’t help but shriek in shock.

“Junior Brother Pan has been stagnating at the Spring Thunder Swordsmanship for half a year. Now that he has received the guidance of a senior, it’s normal that he’d break through the bottleneck.”

“Stop feeling sour. The inner sect disciples of the Four Thunder Swordsmanship Sect cultivate the Four Thunder Sword Techniques. In ten years, they’ll comprehend the sword technique and the sword momentum. Condensing the sword momentum in ten years is already considered good aptitude.”

“Junior Brother Pan managed to master the Spring Thunder Swordsmanship in five years. Now, he has mastered the Summer Thunder sword momentum after eight years. According to this speed, he will master the Four Thunder Sword Techniques before the age of fifty.”

“Summer Thunder sword momentum, I’m so sour.”

The disciples began discussing incessantly. A portion of them was shocked, another portion was envious while some were clenching their fists sourly.

“I, Chen Hua, the deputy Sect Leader of the Four Thunder Swordsmanship Sect, thank you for your guidance on behalf of the disciples of the Four Thunder Swordsmanship Sect.”

At this moment, Daoist Chen Hua’s voice sounded.

He walked towards Su Changyu and saluted him respectfully.

“Thank you, Senior.”

The disciples followed suit and saluted.

Wang Yu, who was not far away, could not help but feel uncomfortable after seeing this scene.

He had such a good opportunity to curry favor, but the old guy beat him to it.

However, after they saluted, Su Changyu still looked calm and arrogant without expressing any joy. He was still looking into the distance.

Everyone couldn’t help but be emotional.

‘He’s indeed an expert.’

‘The Sect Leader was right. The inspection commander of Jin Nation doesn’t care about profits and follows his heart, all for the Sword Dao.’

At this moment, Daoist Tai Hua’s injuries had healed completely.

Indeed, you get what you pay for.

It was indeed worthy of being a superior-class pill. It took less than the burning duration of one incense stick for his injuries to be healed completely. He was even more agile than before.

“Fellow Daoists, thank you for your help.”

Daoist Tai Hua stood up and thanked the two of them gratefully.

However, Daoist Wang Yu quickly waved his hand.

“Fellow Daoist, you’re standing on ceremony with me. The disciples of the Four Thunder Swordsmanship Sect, which is the best Sword Sect in Qingzhou, often receive guidance from the Sect Leader. You don’t have to thank me, this is our duty. I may be mediocre all my life, but it doesn’t affect my righteousness. Oh, may I ask, what are your names?”

Daoist Wang Yu asked with a righteous expression.

“I’m Daoist Tai Hua, this is my disciple Su Changyu.”

Daoist Tai Hua chuckled.

‘Disciple?’

‘The crowd was stunned, but they soon came to a sudden realization.’

The Sect Leader told them before that the inspection commander liked hiding his identity and hence, they reckoned that their master-disciple relationship must have been a mere disguise.

“I’m Daoist Wang Yu. Fellow Daoist, please don’t remember my name, I don’t ask for those whom I have helped to remember my name.”

Daoist Wang Yu couldn’t look any more passionate about upholding justice.

Seeing that it was getting late, Daoist Tai Hua wanted to ask if they wanted to rest here for a while, so that they would not have to travel through the night.

However, he was too embarrassed to say so.

At this moment, Daoist Wang Yu’s voice sounded.

“It’s already late now and Fellow Daoist’s injuries may have healed, but you still have to rest and recuperate for a while. Would you like to rest together?”

It was rare for them to encounter the inspection commander and Daoist Wang Yu naturally didn’t want to leave just like that. He hadn’t curried enough favor yet and he felt that it would be a waste to leave just like that.

Hence, he took the initiative to ask questions.

Daoist Tai Hua immediately got into a good mood.

However, he looked at Su Changyu and didn’t reveal his joy on his face.

“Changyu.”

Daoist Tai Hua said slowly.

At the next moment, Su Changyu snapped back to his senses.

He had been dumbfounded lately and it was mainly because he was dumbfounded by the thunder just now.

Hearing Daoist Tai Hua’s voice, there was bewilderment in Su Changyu’s eyes.

“It’s getting late, why don’t we rest here for a day?”

Daoist Tai Hua said.

“It’s up to you.”

Su Changyu was still a bit confused and replied casually.

Everyone couldn’t help but smile after hearing his words.

However, Su Changyu felt that something was wrong.

‘Why are all of you so happy?’

‘What do you want to do?’

At the same time, on the rear cliff of Qingyun Dao Sect, Ye Ping had just completed the second Body Tempering session.

There were changes in his body again.
