Unsheathed

Approximately ten days passed, and it was nighttime when Chen Ping'an comprehensively stabilized his third tier cultivation base.

There was no soaring through the air on his sword, and no thunderous and astounding commotion.

A female cultivator carrying a sword by her waist silently appeared on the opposite bank of the lotus pond.

Qi Jinglong, who had remained sitting on the long bench for the past few days, opened his eyes. Meanwhile, Chen Ping'an put down his calligraphy brush and stopped transcribing texts, walking out of his room and entering the courtyard.

Qi Jinglong stood up and greeted with a faint smile, "My respects to Sword Immortal Li."

Li Cai waved her hand and said, "Rong Chang has already sent me a messenger flying sword and roughly informed me of the situation. Where is the young lady called Sui Jingcheng? I'll decide whether to thank you or punish you after I have a conversation with her first."

Li Cai strode forward and brushed past Qi Jinglong and his long bench, saying, "You actually dared to scare me with the Great Emblem Sword Sect? Good one, Qi Jinglong."

Qi Jinglong smiled and said, "Sword Immortal Li can follow the rules and challenge me to a sword duel when I advance to the Unpolished Jade Tier in the future."

Li Cai smiled and replied, "Just you wait. However, you need to get a hurry on because I'm going to leave the Northern Complete Reed Continent very soon. I need to take on Li Yu's share and kill more demons at the great wall."

Qi Jinglong thought for a moment before replying, "There'll be a chance."

Li Cai turned around and clicked her tongue in wonder, remarking, "They all say that you talk like an old woman who has her foot bound. Are the rumors in the mountains this unreliable? With your cultivation base and temper, you could definitely compete to become the next sect leader if you were part of my Duckweed Sword Lake."

Qi Jinglong glanced back at Chen Ping'an who was standing near one of the rooms.
