Chapter 883 The Sword Guard!

“Well…”

After listening to Fang Qiu’s words, Long Qiyun glanced at Fang Qiu with a contemptuous look and replied, “You can perform a sword spell with your hands. At your level, it doesn’t matter whether you have a sword or not!”

“It’s different,” Fang Qiu quickly shook his head and said. “It’s cool to have a real sword in hand!”

“Puff…”

Long Qiyun couldn’t help but spit the tea in his mouth onto the ground. He choked on the tea and coughed a few times. A moment later, he could breathe smoothly. He looked at Fang Qiu helplessly and said, “Can you say something that you should as an expert? You are a famous expert in Wulin. How could you say something so childish? Don’t you feel ashamed?”

“Well, well.” Fang Qiu answered with an embarrassed smile.

In fact, he wanted the sword not because he wanted to be cool, but because he could give the move Space-splitting Sea-cracking Sword full play only by using a sword.

He thought that wanting to be cool would be a convincing excuse, but judging from Long Qiyun’s reaction, it seemed that it was not a good excuse at all.

Fang Qiu came here to try his luck because he felt that since there was such a powerful move like the Great Hand of Destruction in the world, there might be other powerful things hidden somewhere. Maybe the sword he wanted really existed.

Looking at Fang Qiu’s shameless look, Long Qiyun thought that Fang Qiu was too childish from the bottom of his heart.

Long Qiyun was the son of a noble family.

Since he was a child, he had thought that everyone should behave in a way that was consistent with their status. He was the young master of the Long family, so he should beave like a young master, while Fang Qiu was an expert, so he should behave like an expert.

But he did not think that John Doe behaved like an expert.

Every time Yun Yangzi appeared, he was elegant and dignified, giving people a feeling that he was a super expert.

However, in Long Qiyun’s eyes, John Doe was like a young dumbass, not like an expert at all. “How could he be as powerful as those people in Wulin praised?” he wondered.

Of course, Long Qiyun didn’t dare to say his thought out loud.

After all, John Doe was indeed powerful. Even if he was not that powerful, he was good at making swords.

Although he was speechless, Long Qiyun carefully pondered for a moment, and then suddenly froze. As if he had thought of something, his eyes lit up.

“Maybe… you can find what you want in a place,” Long Qiyun said hesitantly.

“Hmm?” Hearing that, Fang Qiu was stunned and asked, “Really?”

He was surprised. Was there really such a magical sword in the world?

“I mean, maybe,” said Long Qiyun.

Fang Qiu asked immediately, “What is that place?”

“The Sword Enlightenment Stele in the Sword-hidden Mountain!” Long Qiyun said seriously.

“The Sword-hidden Mountain?” Fang Qiu asked in confusion, “What is that place? Can I find the sword I want there?”

“Well, this is a top-level secret in Wulin,” Long Qiyun nodded slightly and said. “Many people in Wulin now don’t know about this place. I heard this place from my family’s ancestors.”

“Sounds interesting.” Fang Qiu nodded and continued to listen to Long Qiyun.

“Legend has it that the First Emperor of Qin once tested a sword in the Sword-hidden Mountain,” Long Qiyun said. “It is said that there is a divine sword hidden there, and the sword formula is engraved on the Sword Enlightenment Stele. If one comprehends the formula, the divine sword will appear. But it has been more than 2,000 years, and no one has ever comprehended it. Thus, people gradually forget it. The few people who know about it now regard it as a legend.”

Long Qiyun glanced at Fang Qiu and continued, “It’s the only possible place where you may find the ridiculous sword you want.”

“Give me the address,” said Fang Qiu immediately.

“Huh?” Long Qiyun looked at Fang Qiu in surprise and asked, “Are you serious? Do you really want to go there? Do you really believe in such nonsense? I told you it was just a legend.”

“I just want to take a look and try my luck,” said Fang Qiu with a grin.

“All right, all right.”

Long Qiyun shook his head. He was the young master of a sword-making family, and undoubtedly, those sword-making families were most concerned about the legendary divine swords. To be honest, several generations of ancestors of the Long family had paid attention to Sword-hidden Mountain and divine sword. However, in the end, they discovered that it was just a legend.

Long Qiyun also tried to look for the divine sword, but it was useless, so he simply left the matter behind. If Fang Qiu hadn’t mentioned that he wanted to get a sword, Long Qiyun would have forgotten the legend.

“It’s in Tongnan City, Jiangjing!” said Long Qiyun.

“Jiangjing?” Fang Qiu smiled. He was familiar with that place, but he had never been to Tongnan City or heard of the Sword-hidden Mountain or the Sword Enlightenment Stele.

Now that he knew it, he had to take a good look.

“Thanks.” After getting the address, Fang Qiu immediately got up and thanked him, and then left directly.

“You haven’t drunk the tea.”

Looking at John Doe’s back, Long Qiyun could only stand there and mutter, “Alas, he really doesn’t have the calmness of an expert. I’m as calm as experts, but unfortunately, I’m not as strong as them!”

“God is indeed fair!”

After leaving Longquan, Fang Qiu bought a high-speed train ticket and rushed straight to Tongnan City.

When he arrived in the city, he went to the Sword-hidden Mountain according to the address given by Long Qiyun.

The Sword-hidden Mountain was originally a tourist attraction in Tongnan City. However, it was not attracting enough. Moreover, it gave people who came there a sense of oppression and made them feel very uncomfortable. So it became more and more desolate. Now it was like a wild mountain.

Standing at the foot of the mountain, Fang Qiu saw that the mountain was very towering and slender, looking like the tip of a long sword. The top of the mountain was thin, and the mountainside was as thick as the foot of the mountain.

He could see that there seemed to be many abandoned long swords in the forest of the Sword-hidden Mountain. However, they were not eye-catching covered by the trees and grass.

Not to mention ordinary people, even Fang Qiu could feel that the ambience was oppressive as if there were a sword tip pointed at him, which made him feel uncomfortable!

No wonder such a good place was so desolate.

However, it was more likely that such a place was also magical.

At least, this uncomfortable feeling made Fang Qiu feel that this place was really special.

Despite the strange feeling in his heart, Fang Qiu stepped onto the Sword-hidden Mountain.

Walking along a bluestone path that was built long ago, Fang Qiu soon crossed a mountain top and looked at the slightly shorter mountain top in the middle of the place ahead of him.

Looking from the front, the Sword-hidden Mountain was towering, but when Fang Qiu walked into it, he found that the Sword-hidden Mountain seemed to have three peeks.

After crossing the first mountain peak, Fang Qiu saw another particularly high peak.

The area between the two peaks was like a valley.

Surrounded by the mountain peaks from two sides, and thick and tall trees from another two sides, the place looked like a valley. At the center of the valley, Fang Qiu saw a huge, rectangular, inky black stone stele.

The stone stele was ten meters tall with many rocks at its foot, looking like lotus seats, and they seemed to be naturally formed!

Taking a closer look, Fang Qiu saw an ordinary old man sweeping the floor next to the stone stele.

Fang Qiu strode over. When he arrived in the valley, the old man suddenly stopped his work and turned to look at Fang Qiu curiously.

“Young man, are you here for sightseeing?” the old man asked curiously.

“Yes.” Fang Qiu nodded.

“Well, I’m the forest guard here,” the old man continued to sweep the floor and said. “Few people would come here for sightseeing. Since you have come, I have to remind you that this is an important place, and fire is forbidden!”

“Okay, thank you for reminding me.” Fang Qiu nodded, looked at the strange black stone stele in the middle of the valley, and then asked, “Sir, is there anything strange about this place?”

“Anything strange?” the old man was stunned, then shook his head and said, “There is nothing strange about this place, except that it is particularly quiet.”

“Oh, I see.” Fang Qiu nodded.

It was natural that this place was quiet. That oppressive feeling was unbearable even for people, let alone animals. Even if the animals had been growing in the forest, they would never dare to make a noise under the strong pressure.

“Can I go to the stone stele and have a look?” asked Fang Qiu.

“Well.” The forest guard was stunned. He looked at Fang Qiu with great interest and asked, “Do you also want to get the divine sword?”

“Divine Sword?” Fang Qiu was surprised and thought, “Does this ordinary old man also know the secret of this place? Isn’t it a top-level secret in Wulin?”

The old man said with a smile, “Ha-ha. This is the Sword-hidden Mountain. Legend has it that there is a divine sword hidden in this mountain. Many local people have heard of this legend. Many tourists from other places were attracted by this legend and came here.”

Fang Qiu asked with a smile, “Do you believe it?”

“Yes.” the old man nodded seriously.

“Hmm?”

Fang Qiu looked at him in surprise and said, “I thought you wouldn’t believe it since you are the local forest guard. But your answer is really beyond my expectation.”

“It seems that you also believe it.” said the old man as he looked at Fang Qiu.

Fang Qiu glanced at the old man’s hand that was holding the broom, and said, “It seems that you are not an ordinary person.”

“I’m just an ordinary person.” the old man shook his head with a smile and said. “It seems that you are not an ordinary young man.”

“May I ask who you are?”

Fang Qiu was shocked. He noticed that the skin on the old man’s hand was very fair. An ordinary old man would never have a pair of hands like that, but Fang Qiu did not feel any internal Qi from him.

There were only two reasons. One was that the old man was indeed an ordinary person and the other one was that he was a super expert who was more powerful than a guru.

“Since you asked, I won’t hide it anymore.” the old man shook his head with a smile and said. “I am the sword guard of this generation. I have become a forest guard only because I wanted to protect this mountain and this stele!”

Fang Qiu immediately looked the old man up and down in shock.

“The sword guard? Is he really an expert?” he wondered.

“Young man, don’t look at me like that. I am now a simple ordinary person.” Seeing Fang Qiu’s gaze, the old man smiled and said. “My family has long become an ordinary one, but the tradition has been passed down from generation to generation to guard the Sword-hidden Mountain and the Sword Stele!”
