Chapter 260: After Falling from the Horse
Before making up his mind to use the Evil Sword Book, Meng Guangze once asked Qiao Wan.
"Do you really want to do this?"
All of this is because in order to fully unleash the power of the Evil Sword Book, a swordsman's cultivation must have reached the stage of transformation into a deity.
The power of the Evil Sword Book relies on the swordsman's cultivation and the interaction with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Rather than a sword itself, it is more like a sword sheath.
Without reaching the stage of transformation into a deity, one cannot withstand the tremendous pressure that can crush a swordsman into pieces.
Even if Meng Guangze had once hidden all his lifelong knowledge in Qiao Wan's dantian before heading to the battlefield, it would still be too much for Qiao Wan at her current level to wield the Evil Sword Book.
At that time, Qiao Wan asked, "Senior, what would be the consequences if I decide to use it?"
Meng Guangze stayed silent for a moment, then gently rubbed his daughter's head. He said softly, "The powerful spiritual energy inside and outside our bodies can be too overwhelming. It can either cause death or leave us paralyzed."
The young girl in front of him remained quiet for a long time. After a while, she clenched her fists and said, "Please help me transfer my cultivation to my dantian."
Death is inevitable, whether it's a heavy burden or as light as a feather.
She already understood this as she found herself on the brink of death, falling off a cliff.
Instead of dying silently, Qiao Wan would rather die in a way that suits her.
And Meng Guangze, being the same kind of person as her, couldn't refuse Qiao Wan's request.
Fortunately, Qiao Wan had trained her body for many years, so she could endure the sword's power more than he had expected.
There was no death from exploding bodies, nor broken meridians.
Qiao Wan rode on the back of the mirage dragon, leading the other disciples. In an instant, the tide of battle turned, and they defeated Mei Kangping and his demon soldiers. News of their victory spread quickly, and reinforcements from different factions arrived just in time to capture them.
Mei Kangping and his demon soldiers were trapped like a turtle in a jar.
Mei Kangping was a cautious man. Seeing that the battle was turning against him, he quickly retreated with his remaining soldiers back to the demon realm.
With this turn of events, everything finally settled down.
But everyone present couldn't help but feel uneasy. Even the most mature and composed individuals couldn't help but wonder.
What the heck is going on?!
As for Qiao Wan, although she appeared victorious, the clash of spiritual powers inside and outside her body almost tore her apart. She was pale and struggling to catch her breath, but she didn't collapse.
As Mei Kangping looked at the retreat, he couldn't hold on any longer. He stumbled and fell off the dragon's back.
Ma Huaizhen was startled, almost jumping out of his wheelchair. "Quick!"
Hurry, save her!
To their surprise, a golden light was even faster. In the blink of an eye, everyone was shocked to see Venerable One Miaofa already holding Qiao Wan in his arms.
With a fierce gaze and intimidating aura, Miaofa was the first to not be pushed back by the awe-inspiring Buddha's light. Instead, everyone crowded around.
Frowning, Miaofa placed Qiao Wan back in the tent amidst the crowd.
All the disciples were excited, eager to approach and witness this young girl who had just defeated the demon realm with one sword.
But Ma Huaizhen gave them a kick, sending them flying out.
"Go do something useful!" Ma Huaizhen's face darkened. "Is this the time for gossip?"
The powerful aura of the God of Destruction in Kunshan was too strong. The group of young boys and girls couldn't help but feel frustrated as they reluctantly left.
Even though there was a tent between them, it couldn't stop the enthusiasm of the young boys. They squatted outside the tent, eagerly waiting!
When the undercover disciples saw the row of fresh and sincere radishes at the entrance, they were all confused.
These radishes stood firmly in front of the tent and refused to leave, no matter how much the undercover disciples tried to kick them away!
Not only did they not leave, but they also waved their radish leaves, no, their arms, confidently declaring, "Taoist Friend Qiao is our savior. Without Taoist Friend Qiao, would we still be able to stand here? Let's see how our Taoist Friend Qiao is doing!"
The undercover disciples sneered, "Go away! And besides, when did Qiao Wan become yours?"
Clearly, she belongs to their family, right?
A disciple from Chongde Ancient Garden confidently argued, shamelessly saying, "If we can't see Taoist Friend Qiao, then we can at least see Taoist Friend Lu, right?"
"We used to have a good relationship with Taoist Friend Lu before!"
"No! " The hidden disciple on guard frowned, impatiently looking at these shameless young boys and girls one by one, kicking them out, saying, "Get out, get out! If you don't leave, I will call the elders to come and handle this!"
These elite members of the sect, who usually carried themselves with arrogance due to their cultivation and status, were now clinging to the camp gate. How could they resemble elite members of the sect at all?!
In the end, it was the elders from each family who silently grabbed the "radish" heads with their green leaves and took their own little ones back.
Even so, these young boys were still unwilling, raising their arms to defend themselves, "Elders, we...we just want to see Taoist Friend Qiao, right? Elders, please, please, talk to Hall Master Ma and make exceptions for us."
The elders of each family had disappointed expressions on their faces, grabbing their ears and pulling them back, saying, "What are you looking at?!"
Do you think the elders don't want to see too?! We also want to take a look!
The more they looked at the young boys and girls in their hands, the more they felt disappointed. The elders of each family had pale faces and immediately gave their own disciples, who were still practicing swordsmanship and looking confused, a beating.
As for those who were closer, they clearly saw what kind of young boys and girls Qiao Wan was. They gathered together and had a lively discussion.
"I just saw it!!"
"What did you see?!"
"I just saw it too! Taoist Friend Qiao had a pink butterfly jade hairpin on her head!"
"Taoist Friend Qiao was wearing pink clothing?!"
"Yes, yes, yes! Taoist Friend Qiao's skirt even had some embroidered flowers!"
"In that case... I won't wear this hairpin anymore!!" The girl excitedly took off her hairpin. "I... I also want a pink butterfly jade hairpin!"
Yuan Liu, who happened to be passing by and overheard this conversation, was extremely speechless.
"No! Even if you want to learn, don't learn Qiao Wan's taste! Oh my!"
Leaving behind these funny people, Yuan Liu glanced ahead and saw a young man wearing grass shoes with a bright smile on his face.
This is Qi Feidao from Chongde Ancient Garden, someone Yuan Liu knows. As he took a closer look, his expression froze.
What is that strange creature Qi Feidao is carrying in his hand? Is it made of wool?
The unknown creature was being held by the man by its collar, dragging on the ground, and struggling by waving its arms.
"I won't go!! I won't go!!!" Fang Lingqing's face turned red, and he, who rarely showed a manly attitude, shouted angrily, "Let me go!! I won't go!"
But as they got closer to the camp, his so-called manly demeanor deflated like a popped balloon. His face turned even redder, and he looked miserable, "I won't go! Senior, I won't go in!"
Qi Feidao, with a big smile on his face, comforted Taoist Friend Qiao, his eyes sparkling with amusement. He said, "Don't be so shy! Taoist Friend Qiao is injured, so as friends, we should go and visit him, shouldn't we?"
Qiao Wan was shocked to discover that Lu Cixian and she were the same person. None of them, even Qi Feidao, could fully grasp the reality of the situation.
Witnessing this, Yuan Liu's lips twitched, and he immediately stepped forward.
Qi Feidao looked up and said, "Isn't that Taoist Friend Yuan? "
Yuan Liu had a stern expression on his face and said, "Hall Master Ma has given the order that no one is allowed inside. Please understand, Taoist Friend Qi."
So, even if you were on good terms with Lu Cixian before, you need to leave now.
Fang Lingqing was momentarily stunned and took the opportunity when Qi Feidao was distracted to cover his face in sorrow and ran away!
He, he, he... He actually thought Lu Cixian... Oops, Qiao Wan, needed his help. How could he face Lu Cixian now... Oops, Qiao Wan!!
"Go back. Yuan Liu, with a sincere tone, gently pushed away Qi Feidao who was trying to get close to him and said, 'We will meet in a few days.'
It was difficult to persuade those two funny guys to leave, Yuan Liu sighed.
Although they all belong to the Chongde Ancient Garden, Meng Canglang and his group seemed more calm.
In the end, it turned out that you can't just make promises without thinking, Yuan Liu caught a glimpse of the uncomfortable expressions of Meng Canglang, Lone Sword Xie Xingzhi, and Shining Sea Bai Shanhu, who were acting suspiciously near the tent.
Yuan Liu: ...
Suddenly, he felt an even greater responsibility on his shoulders. What happened?!!
Among this group of people, Gan Nan was the only one who was allowed to enter by Ma Huaizhen.
Qiao Wan had been lying down for two days. Everyone carried her to Kunshan and she laid there for another two days. Finally, she slowly woke up and as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw a young man with tearful eyes lying next to her pillow, crying loudly."
"Waa waa waa... Wan'er... waa waa waa... little sister... waa waa waa... you finally... waa waa waa... woke up... waa waa waa..." Qiao Wan was taken aback.
Wait a minute!! Your tears are almost flooding my blanket!!
In the end, it was a pair of delicate hands that lifted the teary-eyed little white dragon like a poached egg.
"Alright, stop crying," Meng Guangze couldn't help but smile as he placed the child on the stool.
With tears in his eyes, the young man asked, "This senior... who is he?"
Qiao Wan was taken aback by the question, but after a moment's thought, she straightforwardly answered, "This is my father."
Meng Guangze's senior status should not have been revealed at this moment, but Qiao Wan firmly believed that Gan Nan was not a stranger.
The little white dragon was her best friend!! And also her best big brother!!
Looking at the obedient child sitting on the stool, completely stunned, Meng Guangze smiled, "Gan Xiao... no..."
The man, respectfully and seriously, bowed and looked at her with a hint of narrowness visible beneath his glasses.
"I should probably greet my father."
Qiao Wan: ?
Gan Nan: ?!!!
