Chapter 671: Changing Course
While waiting for someone, Qi Xuansu idly picked up a novel titled The Legend of the Female Sword Immortal: A Shoddy Sequel.
Qi Xuansu flipped to the first page.
“Three years remain until the next Yuxu Sword Tournament. The previous champion, Li Ziyun, was currently cultivating the Nanhua Sutra in seclusion...”
He then flipped to the final page, thinking he could guess the whole story from just reading the beginning and the end.
“At last, everything settled down. Li Ziyun returned to her normal life and continued her cultivation of the Nanhua Sutra, awaiting the next Yuxu Sword Tournament three years later.”
Qi Xuansu remained silent for a long time, unsure of what to say.
This story felt like a time loop, with the beginning and end repeating themselves. It would be like if Madam Qi had ordered him to go to Fengtai County to seize the Xuan Jade, which led to him experiencing a host of events like marrying Zhang Yuelu and defeating Li Changge, only for him to end up setting off on the journey to Fengtai County to compete for the Xuan Jade again.
He glanced again at the thick storybook and could not help but mutter, “This shouldn’t be titled A Shoddy Sequel. It should be called A Day in the Life of the Female Sword Immortal.”
Finding the story unbearable, Qi Xuansu pulled out the latest Daoist bulletin.
The first thing to catch his eye was a sensational headline, “The Post-Daoist Era: Which Path Shall We Take?”
Qi Xuansu was shocked that a title like this had gotten published. Had the censors fallen asleep?
