Chapter 906: Chapter 182: Heavenly Dao Seed, Reincarnation Cultivation (Minimum Guarantee +4K Additional Chapter 11)_5
Upon hearing this, Li Hao immediately thought of Lin Qingyue and said, âIâd like to see some other friends as well, if thatâs convenient?â
The Sword Saint thought Li Hao was referring to Bian Ruxue, as he knew she was Li Haoâs fiancĂ©e, and their relationship was far closer than just âfriends.â
âIf youâre hoping to see Xueâer, Iâm afraid youâll be disappointed; she has already been reincarnated.â
The Sword Saint spoke, while paying attention to Li Haoâs expression, thinking if he still harbored feelings for Bian Ruxue, they could use this connection to get closer to Li Hao.
âHmm?â
Li Hao was stunned for a moment before he realized who the Sword Saint was talking about.
âOh.â
Li Hao nodded, somewhat surprised that she chose to be reincarnated, it was clearly a voluntary choice given that she had the Sword Saint as her master.
And since she hadnât reached the Dharma Aspect Extreme Realm of the Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation, nor the Saint Realm, reincarnation was the inevitable path.
Seeing Li Haoâs indifferent reaction, the Sword Saintâs gaze shifted slightly, barely perceptible, and he calmly said:
âXueâer pursued the Ultimate Sword that she saw in your hands. Her Dao Heart seemed to face issues, and thus in this reincarnation, she didnât go to the Land of All Saints, but chose the Mortal World instead. Therefore, Iâm unable to look after her, and will only be able to sense her presence if one day she appears again in the Land of All Saints.â
The Ultimate Sword⊠Li Haoâs gaze flickered, recalling the scene of the girl under the setting sun, her face full of hope and admiration, telling him about her pursuit.
Thinking back to the girlâs earnest expression by the bonfire in the wilderness.
He shook his head and chuckled slightly. The Ultimate Sword, in his hands? Itâs nothing extraordinary; that could hardly be considered ultimate.
After all, his swordsmanship hadnât reached the Tenth Stage; how dare he claim his sword to be the ultimate swordsmanship.
âReincarnated in the Mortal World⊠may she be at peace.â
Li Hao said, harboring no ill will towards the girl, nor did he pine for her; the tail-end of their correspondence from their youth had long since been cut off.
The Sword Saint fell silent for a moment and said, âIâve heard that she was your fiancĂ©e, and you were not yet married. Have you let go?â
Li Hao glanced at him and noted that this Sword Saint was quite well-informed.
He shook his head with a smile, replying: âThat engagement wasnât wished for by either of us, and moreover, it was only for this lifetime. Now that she has reincarnated, matters of the next life are for the next life. Besides, the one betrothed to her was Li Hao, what does that have to do with me, Haotian?â
The Sword Saint was stunned, measuring up Li Hao, not understanding the meaning behind his last statement.
However, he understood the previous part of the conversation, and suddenly recalled the girlâs resolute eyes before her reincarnation.
She wanted to reincarnate to seek a genuine Dao Heart, to verify whether this life was indeed in error.
Yet he could see that despite her resolve to reincarnate, a tinge of reluctance remained in her eyes. It seemed she hoped to grasp at something through reincarnation.
Regrettably, after her reincarnation, the last strand of connection through their engagement also became null and void.
For a moment, the Sword Saint stood in silence, not speaking again. It was only after a good while that he spoke: âShe eagerly sought her Dao Heart, being young and naĂŻve. Even if she is now a stranger to you, I hope you wonât blame her.â
Li Hao knew he was concerned about resentment in his heart, but clearly, that was an unnecessary worry.
Remembering the girlâs face, he couldnât help but sigh lightly; how times change, how the years toy with us. A broken mirror canât be made whole again, and the carefree days of youth canât be revisited.
âLife is like an inn against the flow; I, too, am a traveler. May our first meeting not disappoint the sincere heart.â
Li Hao said softly.
The Sword Saint looked at Li Hao, knowing that his heart had let go, and he internally breathed a sigh of relief. Perhaps this was the best outcome for both of them.
He said, âThe Sword Master probably wants to see you, please go ahead.â
Li Hao nodded, bade him farewell with a bow, and then proceeded to the Sword Tower.
âWhat were you and the Sword Saint talking about for so long?â
At the Sword Cliff, the Sword Master saw Li Hao approaching, didnât turn around, but merely chuckled.
And beside him, the two Sword Attendants wearing copper masks were surprisedly examining Li Hao, hurrying to pay their respects.
The last time Li Hao was here, they had led him to hang a painting in the Sword Tower. Now, in just a short time, he was sitting on par with their master, having become a Saint!
Li Haoâs feats had spread throughout All Heavens, and of course, these young Sword Attendants had heard of the terrifying and monstrous prowess of this youth.
Li Hao smiled and gestured for them not to make a fuss, then he approached the Sword Master, seeing that he was meditating and not fishing, he said: âJust casual chat. Are you free? Shall we go fishing together?â
The Sword Master raised an eyebrow and unhappily replied: âThe Saint Path Symposium is in a month; arenât you going to attend? The Buddhist faction and the Void Holy Land will surely take this opportunity to kill you!â
âNo worries, Iâm waiting for them.â
Li Hao said with a light chuckle.
The Sword Master was taken aback, sizing up Li Hao once more. Although he had seen Li Haoâs capabilities before, the Saint Path had just been through the Human Tribulation, and its foundation was still too weak compared to the Buddhist faction and the Void Holy Land.
âAside from them, they might also invite their old friends to fight alongside them; you need to consider it carefully.â
The Sword Master, concerned for Li Hao, seriously advised.
Li Hao smiled and nodded, reassuring him not to worry.
If they wanted to have others join the discussion, Li Hao would be delighted; he could use the opportunity to face his Extreme Dao and Incense Fire Human Tribulations.
As long as the three powers cycled, not manifesting at the same time, others would not realize he could cultivate the Three Saints simultaneously. They would only assume he was using the Source Ancestorâs prohibitions to isolate the Saint Path, being able to manifest only one at a time and merely taking turns.
However, taking turns and manifesting simultaneously are starkly different.
Seeing Li Hao so relaxed, the Sword Master said no more. He quickly gave instructions to his two disciples and then asked Li Hao about the location for wild fishing.
Noticing his interest, Li Hao smiled, asking him to wait a moment. He then dispersed his perception, detected Lin Qingyueâs presence, and instantly teleported to her.
