Mission: Seduce the Master!
Chapter 102: Destroying Blade (Part 1)

"Xie Qing..." murmured the empress, a smile tugging at the corners of her mouth: "How wonderful. It seems that this time, little Xu Mei has found someone good."

The empress had heard of the existence of this young man. Once, Xu Mei had even warned her not to lay her hands on this guy.

"I thought at the time that little Mei-Mei was joking, but who would have thought that this guy was really that talented? Hah."

The empress narrowed her phoenix eyes, emitting a mysterious aura. What she was thinking was unknown.

"Elder, we have checked all the surrounding areas, and there are no more traces of the beasts' existence. We found only a few dozen monsters, but they were injured by your attack and were easily killed" reported one of the cultivators, respectfully bowing.

The place was near the destroyed city. Xie Qing sat on a large, flat boulder and meditated.

Qi whirls surrounded him in an elegant dance, but no one dared to approach too close, no matter how beautiful the sight.

A few days ago, a cultivator wanted to interrupt the young man's cultivation because he wanted to challenge him, but he was sliced into thousands of pieces by this whirl.

"Hm..." Xie Qing's deep voice sounded. He opened his eyes, which shone with a golden light, causing the cultivators surrounding him to feel fear: "Good, well done."

The young man cracked his neck and stood on the boulder. He looked around and, seeing that there was indeed nothing suspicious or requiring attention, nodded and stepped down from the boulder.

Crack. Crack. Crack.

The sound of something cracking was heard.

"Hm?"

Fan Lan, who arrived at the scene, saw Xie Qing step down from the boulder and then, almost instantly, the boulder began to crack and eventually exploded, turning into dust.

"Ah!"

Some pieces of stone pierced the skin of the surrounding cultivators, but thanks to their cultivation level, the wounds healed very quickly.

Xie Qing shook his head.

"My power is getting out of control. This cannot be ignored" thought the young man and clenched his fists. Immediately, a clear cracking sound was heard.

"Hii!"

"..."

Xie Qing twisted the corners of his eyes when he saw the people around him activate protective items.

"Am I that dangerous in your eyes?" thought the young man with resentment and rolled his eyes: "Although, the power that cannot be controlled can indeed only be described as something dangerous. I think I should consider the people around me."

Although he did it not on purpose, just still not used to his power after almost exhausting all his Qi, which seemed endless from the side.

"Yesterday I reached the second stage of Soul Nascent... and my Qi is comparable to the fifth stage," thought the young man and narrowed his eyes, focusing on the distant figure standing alone and practicing the sword: "I wonder if I can defeat that guy?"

The man was tall and looked like a mountain. His hair was golden and extended over his powerful back, and his eyes were like the sea's surface, just as pure and beautiful.

He looked forty years old, but still maintained his beauty. He could not be overlooked.

Moreover, what was special was that Xie Qing could not detect what level of cultivation he was at, which could either testify to strong concealment skills or that he surpassed the young man by two ranks.

"No... I shouldn't be so arrogant just because I defeated some trash. I can't defeat him now" thought Xie Qing and looked away.

His opponent was most likely at least at the Spiritual Ascension level, which was already considered a very strong opponent who could erase you from the face of the earth.

"Ah, by the way... we have similar nicknames in some way," thought Xie Qing and smiled, recalling the nickname given to him by the cultivation world: "Destroying Blade..."

Although it sounded extremely corny, as if it was invented by an eighth-grader, it perfectly described his combat achievement.

Who on all the continents did not know that he was able to cut a city in half at only the Soul Nascent level? This made many people become alert and inspired swordsmen.

As soon as it became known that there was an abundance of Sword Aura here, thousands of swordsmen flocked to this place like males to females during spring mating season.

They greedily studied even the tiniest trace of Sword Aura. They were so desperate.

The Sword Princess and the Sword Empress were the pride of the past, but their techniques were never passed down as an inheritance, as both women regarded this as a treasure.

Although Xie Qing did not agree with such a way of doing things, he understood that everyone has a different opinion.

"For me... it would be good to come up with my cultivation technique," thought the young man, narrowing his eyes: "Although it's still far away, I can't rely on the Master's techniques and... um... the great master's."

Xie Qing narrowed his eyes and looked at the sky, illuminated by bright sun rays. Lately, he had been enjoying every second of his fame.

"What could be better than feeling admiring and frightened looks on yourself?" thought the young man, and the corners of his mouth turned up, and his eyes sparkled with pleasure: "Ha, what a great person I am. Tsk, tsk, tsk... The heavens have indeed not stinted on this young master!"

...although one might think that his self-satisfaction would give way to majestic behavior for a while, Xie Qing stuck to his character.

"I wonder how the Master will react to this?" he thought.

"Bitch, where do you want to go? Stay the fuck where you are!"

"Hahaha, fuck you, you damned bitch! Why does such a lazy bitch have such a talented disciple? I'm taking him for myself!

"Fuck you! That's my disciple, you stupid bitch!"

"Hahahahaha! He's my great disciple, so what's the problem? I'll just suck the... cough... help him reach new peaks!"

"I heard your reservation, bitch!"

...Well, answering the question of what Xu Mei thought about this question, she was too busy holding back her Master, the Sword Queen, who already wanted to go for the young man.

"Pf! Greedy bitch! Is that what you taught me?!"

"Fuck you, fool! The only thing you taught me is how to stick a sword in the asses of devilish cultivators and drink alcohol!" Xu Mei was outraged and used her Qi to strengthen herself: "So shut the fuck up and don't come near my disciple by even a centimeter!"

"Ugh... stupid gorilla!"

Mei Feng pouted offensively but stopped her attempts to pierce the space and head straight to where Xie Qing was located.

The scene she saw struck even her. Even though she considered her sword techniques the pinnacle of sword power, she could not help but admire how perfectly and powerfully Xie Qing applied them.

Moreover, this was on his modest cultivation level. It was something bordering on madness.

In addition, the fact that the young man had a strong understanding of the sword was also satisfying information for Mei Feng. Although Xie Qing was not her direct disciple, she did not want to allow a talentless person to become Xu Mei's disciple.

"And now I am convinced that if not him, then no one deserves to be Xu Mei's disciple," thought Mei Feng and hungrily smiled: "By talent... perhaps even surpasses me and Xu Mei combined! A true genius!"

The woman brushed off her extra clothes and was left in a simple white dress that revealed her abs and covered sensitive areas.

Her legs were slender and long, although they should have looked muscular. But, considering that a cultivator of her level can easily control her appearance... most likely it's even better for her.

"Phew... finally this crazy woman has calmed down," thought Xu Mei, relieved. She moved her gaze to the bright sphere, displaying the scene that happened then: "You... amazing..."

Her eyes filled with admiration and love. At his age, she could not achieve such success, so what Xie Qing did was even beyond her expectations.

Initially, she asked Lian Lin to send an order to test his skills and give him a chance for a real battle.

The result surpassed all indicators. When Lian Lin saw this scene, her eyes sparkled, and the gloomy sleeping look instantly disappeared.

"Hehe, now there will be motivation for this lazy ass to strive for his development and not lie in bed all day instead of cultivating," thought Xu Mei with a sly smile. She moved her gaze to Mei Feng and rolled her eyes, seeing the suspicious liquid flowing down her thigh: "Bitch. What, you wanna take my precious diamond? Fuck you!"

...such thoughts were disrespectful to a person who is your Master, you know?

Although, what can you explain, trying to cover up the dirty mouth of Xu Mei is as difficult as not laughing when your friend slips on the ice and falls.

***

Destroying Blade. The nickname honored to Xie Qing was coming out of every hole... hey, I don't mean what you think.

Many admired, many feared, but there was a fact - finally, after a long time of silence and tranquility, the cultivation world is waking up from a long sleep.

From the shadows came out sleeping geniuses and stepped onto the path of perfection, to try to prove their qualifications, and many cultivators received motivation to resist devilish cultivators.

Fame. That's what spins everyone's head.

Even Xie Qing could not restrain a smile from being recognized and respectfully greeted. Even a yard dog will stand on its hind legs and greet like an exemplary citizen.

Along with this, the Heavenly Sword Sect was also drawn into this whirlwind of adventures.
