Chapter 401: Chapter 222: Third Elder Scrambles for Huang Braised Chicken
"Your Sword Intent seems to have improved?"
It’s a long spiral staircase in the Exorcism Bureau, with the Third Elder leading the way for You Su.
"I was fortunate to comprehend it."
You Su respectfully followed behind the beautiful woman, though unfortunately, he was blind and couldn’t appreciate the taut curves of the lady in the ink-green cheongsam as she ascended the stairs.
"Because of the severe injuries you sustained?"
The Third Elder quietly turned her head, curiously glanced at You Su, and found herself increasingly unable to see through this blind man.
He himself is blind and cannot see the world clearly, yet it’s as if he draped a layer of black gauze over himself, preventing others from seeing clearly?
You Su nodded, without giving an explanation.
After all, personally killing a Void Realm Venerable was such a significant matter, the fewer people knew, the better. Apart from the only accomplice, the Chief Elder, he didn’t want to expose it to anyone.
It was also that night, when facing a Void Realm Venerable who could crush him with just a finger, he steadfastly held onto his convictions, never retreating, embodying the words ’Don’t Be Afraid,’ which elevated his Don’t Be Afraid Sword Intent to another level.
Additionally, after killing the Ghost Mite, the image of the Ghost Mite indeed appeared beneath the black line of flesh and blood in the Golden Silkworm, and unsurprisingly, You Su’s physical strength increased, which further amplified the power of his Sword Intent.
"Does your Sword Intent have a name?"
The Third Elder walked gracefully, emitting a fragrant aroma with each step, and You Su couldn’t help but feel slightly flustered, quietly slowing his pace to keep some distance from the leading Third Elder.
The Third Elder, however, was full of shock at You Su’s earlier single sword strike that had slain the evil puppet, with numerous questions she wished to ask, and thoughtfully waited for You Su occasionally, leaving You Su feeling utterly helpless.
"Don’t Be Afraid," You Su honestly replied.
"Don’t Be Afraid?"
The Third Elder was momentarily surprised, then chuckled softly, instantly lighting up the garden with colors.
"I thought you acted recklessly and boldly, yet didn’t expect you needed these two words to inspire yourself."
You Su also found these two words a bit banal, and if he could rename it, he would definitely call it ’Low Brow’ Sword Intent.
With three million Sword Immortals in the sky, even they must lower their brows before me.
Handsome enough to make one drool.
But after all, this was not the Sword Intent he comprehended. He wasn’t an arrogant person, or rather, it’s difficult for a blind person to carry such overpowering momentum.
"I’m a blind man...either I stumble across the river, or I charge recklessly along one path to the end. Unable to see the way ahead, I can only keep encouraging myself with ’Don’t Be Afraid, Don’t Be Afraid,’ who knew it would become my Sword Intent."
You Su scratched his head, casually depicting the growth process of a blind man, with a hint of self-mockery.
The Third Elder restrained her laughter upon hearing him, suddenly remembering that this unexpected young man was, after all, a blind person...
"It’s actually quite down-to-earth; as long as it can defeat the enemy, it’s a good Sword Intent."
The Third Elder seldom praised You Su, but this time, she was genuinely sincere.
"It’s certainly better than those named ’Low Brow’ Sword Intent, with a meaningless name then taking the harshest beatings."
The Third Elder shook her head with a light smile, as if recalling an amusing historical anecdote.
Pass down through five thousand years of Sword Cultivators across the Five Continents, what Sword Intent hasn’t been developed?
You Su, at his age, comprehending such a unique Sword Intent, is one of a kind.
"Haha, the Third Elder is absolutely right..."
You Su laughed a couple of times with a guilty conscience, then quickly concurred.
...
"This is your unique Divine Son Order, don’t lose it."
The Third Elder took You Su on a tour around the Exorcism Bureau, familiarizing him with the interior layout, introducing some members he would encounter, and ensuring he received all needed items.
You Su rubbed the cold jade in his hand, clearly able to feel the character ’Heaven’ engraved on it, and above the character ’Heaven,’ there was a carved crescent moon, symbolizing his identity as the Night Divine Son.
"Thinking back to when your elder sister received the Heaven Order, she was only nineteen years old, actually one year older than you."
The Third Elder looked at the young man, genuinely touched.
At eighteen years old as a Heaven Order envoy, looking across the history of the Exorcism Bureau within the Five Continents, it’s unprecedented. Especially considering that You Su hasn’t even reached the Condensed Water Realm, the Bureau’s minimal standard.
This blind man is the greatest exception in the history of the Exorcism Bureau.
"These are the Exorcism Bureau’s clothes, but due to your special circumstances, you mustn’t wear them unless necessary, to avoid exposing your identity. Everyone inside the Bureau who knows your identity has signed a Life and Death Contract, and must not divulge any of your information. If violated, they will face backlash."
The Third Elder handed over armor made from Black Armor Carp Scale, the arrangement of the scales approaching perfection, weighing significantly in hand, indicating its formidable defensive capability.
"You must also remain cautious, constantly aware of the principle that ’the tallest tree attracts the wind.’ Too much ostentation might make it difficult for the Chief Elder to ensure your absolute safety, even if he guards you day and night."
"You Su understands."
"Are you sure you don’t want those cultivation techniques and sword skills?"
The Third Elder stood at the Exorcism Bureau’s entrance, confirming with You Su once more.
"You refuse to disclose your cultivation technique, I won’t press the matter, given that the Profound Qi within you is indeed clear and sincere. But you must know, not every cultivation technique can reach the Void Realm, and the books you just saw can make your path of cultivation much more efficient."
You Su remained silent, then shook his head.
He had laid the foundation for the Heaven and Earth Yin Yang Joyful Union Skill for 18 years, how could he easily switch to another cultivation technique.
