Although he had some doubts in his heart, Cui Yuan still decided to believe his master's words.

After all, Master can't be wrong, he has been deeply aware of this since he was a child, Master is so powerful, so great, it is like a legendary omnipotent immortal - although when he grew up, he also knew that it was just a normal performance made by a capable adult.

But he knows better that not everyone would want to raise an orphan of a horse thief.

So since Master wants him to give a sword to the strong man who uses the fire blade, then he just does it, after all, he has been training for so many years, just to be able to catch up with Master and stand by Master's side, isn't it?

"It's done!"

Cui Yuan made a decision.

Then start scratching your head.

It was decided to do it, but when it came to how to do it, this was a big problem - although with his figure, he could come and go freely in Yanzhou City at night, but wanting to find someone in Yanzhou City, which has a population of more than 100,000 people, was tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.

What's more, the other party said that he was not in the city, after all, when Yanzhou City counted the population, even the villages outside the city were also counted.

And the most troublesome thing is that he still has a wanted on his back.

When he was in Jibei, he was notoriously unpopular, after all, he often found someone to duel and practice swords, and it was often a life-and-death fight, so the rangers and swordsmen in Jibei were quite disgusted with him, and even gathered people to prepare to kill him - of course, in the end, he successfully fought back, which also made his popularity worse.

And now, because of the previous practice of "Sword of No Killing", these swordsmen and rangers who already had opinions about him were driven to Yanzhou by him, so under the propaganda of these enemies, he was simply hung up in Yanzhou with a reward.

Ten catties of gold, this price is too outrageous, and now those people in Yanzhou City who have a little courage are about to go crazy for this price. As long as he dares to leak his tracks in the city, he will be greeted by an overwhelming endless pursuit.

In that case, he would not be able to find anything, and the master's instructions would not be completed.

So after thinking about it, Cui Yuan, who was alone, could only choose to ask for help and find the person with the best popularity around him.

After all, the other party still seems to be quite easy to talk.

"What? You're going to let me help you find someone? ”

Du Chengfeng, who had been busy all day, had just returned to the house, but was stunned by Cui Yuan's question.

"I can really get the help of the predators and send out some fishing papers...... But who are you looking for? Anyway, give me a trait. ”

"Characteristic...... He would use a blade of fire. ”

Cui Yuan roughly described it.

"A knife that is on fire can stretch the blade far away, and the specific operating principle should be similar to that of the sword below...... What happened to you? ”

"I ......"

Du Chengfeng also began to scratch his head.

The fire blade can stretch the blade far away, and the specific operating principle is a bit similar to the sword...... How does this sound more and more like talking about him?

"Do you see this is it?"

Du Chengfeng thought about it, simply took out the thick knife from the saddle bag, and waved his hand.

The blazing pillars of fire lit up the night sky quite beautifully, which surprised the two mountain guards in the courtyard who were packing their luggage.

It was at this time that Cui Yuan's hand touched the hilt of the sword.

"Let's duele."

“…… Yes? ”

Du Chengfeng couldn't react for a while.

Didn't you say looking for someone? Why is it involved in the duel again?

"What Master said is indeed right, Your Excellency's fire blade is much stronger than the sword below...... If you want to continue on the swordsmanship, you must climb over the mountain of Your Excellency! ”

No matter how difficult the process is.

It wasn't until he personally faced the blazing blade held high that Cui Yuan realized how huge the gap between himself and this Du Chengfeng was—it was no longer facing the mountain, but the people at the foot of the mountain, looking up at the peak above the clouds!

So, be sure to fight.

You must fight, and you must prove your swordsmanship.

Otherwise, his sword will probably stop here for the rest of his life.

"You're sick again, aren't you?"

Seeing that Cui Yuan had already put his hand on the hilt of the sword, Du Chengfeng had already noticed the seriousness of this swordsman.

Although he still hasn't understood how this hellish fight started, it is obvious that this duel is already a must-fight!

The excitement of déjà vu came again, even accompanied by a certain hunger.

"Come then."

Under the guidance of his body, he gave his arms completely to the knife.

The blazing fire blade was held high in the air, Du Chengfeng carefully observed Cui Yuan in front of him, judging the timing of his attack, judging the direction of his sword-and Cui Yuan, who was pressing the hilt of the sword, had already pulled out the broken sword and walked towards him.

Three steps.

Two steps.

One-step.

“…… What are you doing here? ”

Seeing that the flat-headed broken sword in Cui Yuan's hand first gestured at his stomach, and then at his chest, abdomen and throat, Du Chengfeng, who was holding the big knife, couldn't help but fall into confusion.

"Still fighting?"

"It's over."

Cui Yuan collected the sword and returned it to the sheath.

"You're dead."

"What......"

Du Chengfeng was stunned and speechless for a long time.

After a long time, he put down the big knife in his hand and touched the places on his body that had been stabbed by the broken sword.

Well, indeed not a single wound at all.

So what is Cui Yuan talking about? How did you finish the fight? And he opened his mouth and killed him?

"This is the principle of the sword that does not kill."

As if he had finally defeated some invincible enemy, Cui Yuan had completely relaxed at this moment.

"When you completely give up your killing intent, you will no longer have the feeling of continuing to fight me...... This is the time when there is no fight, but when the next is the closest to victory. ”

At this moment, Cui Yuan's face was calm, as if he had entered some kind of magical realm that ordinary people could not understand.

"This is the true extreme realm of the sword, not limited to skills, it doesn't matter the strength, whether it is victory or defeat, it is one mind."

"What are you talking about...... Yo. ”

Du Chengfeng just wanted to say something, but he remembered something.

That is, this Cui Yuan can stab the sword with a broken sword.

It's just that if the sword is broken, it really can't hurt him, but if the sword is added, he will be poked out of three holes just now - if you think about it this way, this Cui Yuan's comprehension of the "way not to kill" is really amazing, even if this Cui Yuan has finished a whole set, his perception here still only feels that this is nonsense that can't hurt himself.

"That's really you!"

Du Chengfeng couldn't help but nod again and again.

Although I don't know what weird way this Cui Yuan used to deceive his perception of danger, there is no doubt that this convinced him of his defeat.

"Find out below! This sword is endless! ”

Saying this, the excited Cui Yuan raised his hand and raised his sword, and the five-foot sword pointed straight at the sky!

"Zheng—"

It was at this time that the big knife in Du Chengfeng's hand subconsciously opened the sword.

"Bang!"

The invisible sword shattered.

……

"Kill me."

Cui Yuan knelt on the ground and was killed.

"This sword of non-killing was actually broken by you, and the sword under it is really not good, this sword is ......"

Immediately followed by a large number of words that Du Chengfeng didn't understand, such as what kind of fifteen years of sword practice, three thousand swords a day, pure sword intent, human and sword unity and other strange words, Du Chengfeng couldn't help but scratch his head for a while.

Communicating with the mentally ill is really a troublesome thing.

"Well, this doesn't count."

Du Chengfeng thought about it, and decided to let Cui Yuan stand up first.

"Didn't you just win both? Your unkillable sword is indeed powerful. At least it's your sucker...... By the way, did you just say that your master asked you to come to me? Then why don't you ask your master? ”

"He won't teach him."

Cui Yuan, who was kneeling on the ground, just shook his head.

"He has something to do now, and he doesn't have time to guide me......"

Then why don't you see that I have something to do?

Du Chengfeng wanted to slap this Cui Yuan twice, but after thinking about it, he didn't rush to fight - being angry with the mentally ill would pull him to the level of psychosis, so it was better to find a better reason to let this psychotic get out quickly.

After all, what he is facing now is even more troublesome.

"Your master doesn't instruct you, right......"

Thinking of the martial arts novels he had read, Du Chengfeng quickly had an idea in his heart.

"If your master doesn't instruct you, then go and beat him and duel him, he has seen your moves in actual combat, and he has to instruct you when he sees your mistakes and omissions."

"This ...... Is it appropriate? ”

Cui Yuan, who was kneeling on the ground, always felt as if something was not quite right when he heard this.

Although theoretically speaking, it is extremely disrespectful to act against the master, but if you think about it...... This hellish solution, it seems to really work?

"But isn't that a bit ......?"

"You are a good learner, and your master will forgive you."

Du Chengfeng is righteous and stern.

"Anyway, you definitely can't beat your master, and in the end, he beat you, and he beat you, so how can he be angry with you?"

"It seems like this!"

After a few turns in his mind, the more Cui Yuan thought about it, the more he felt that this plan was feasible.

What's more, he has already completed the master's entrustment, and has given this person with a fire blade a full three swords, although his non-killing sword is still missing, but it has indeed allowed him to climb over the peak of the previous fear.

Like Master said, this is really part of the practice.

And now, he is successful in his cultivation.

How could his master be unhappy?

"Thank you, sir, for your doubts! I'm going back to the master to fight! ”

"Okay, let's go quickly."

Du Chengfeng waved his hand and motioned for Cui Yuan to hurry up.

After all, he has more troublesome business to do here.

For example, how to deal with Qi Jinshan, the commander of Yanzhou.
