Chapter 21: If you kneel at the sword monument for me, I will lie dormant for three months and then strike out with my first punch to shock the world!
The sword platform.

As soon as these three words came out.

Within the entire 'Demon Locking Forest', the whispers of the surrounding Yunluan disciples suddenly fell silent.

They didn't expect that
This young palace master who has always been self-disciplined, followed the rules, and was indifferent to everything, the eldest sister.
He actually got mad.

Even those old people who have been in Yunluan Sword Palace for a long time, more than ten or even twenty years.

I have never seen such a scene before.

That’s the Sword Punishment Platform!
There are many sword cultivators in the Sword Palace, and their mission is to "slay demons and eliminate evil." All of the disciples they cultivate have hot tempers and are the type who will draw their swords at the slightest disagreement.

In order to resolve disputes, the sect has set up the 'Sword Punishment Arena'. If there is a disagreement between the two parties, as long as their lives are not involved, they can go to the Sword Punishment Arena to fight. Even if they are seriously injured and dying, they will still be inferior to their opponents in skills!
After that, regardless of victory or defeat.

Those who go onto the Sword Punishment Platform must accept their own punishment and go to the "Sword Viewing Forest" in person to stand before the sword monument filled with Yunluan sword energy and suffer the pain of "the sword energy piercing the heart".

The sword is for fighting.

Punishment is for punishment.

The combination of the two is the Sword Punishment Platform.

For a half-demon who has just started!

That’s it!

Could it be
Could it be that this young palace master has really been tempted by worldly desires?

There are many people who were just guessing.
At this moment, his eyes wandered between Song Fanjing and Song Chaixin. Although he was secretly criticizing them, he actually began to believe them a little.

And looking at Song Fanjing, who was wearing a cloud-like dress, with her long black hair tied up with a hairpin, and whose words and actions were indifferent, her attitude was almost worlds away from his own.

Cui Chan's face flushed red, and he gripped the hilt of the sword tightly. However, facing the woman's aggressiveness, he couldn't utter a single word.

I was obviously speaking for her.

As a result, Song Fanjing actually slapped him, the chief, in the face in front of all the disciples of Yunluan Mountain!
This half-demon.
Is it that important?
Compared to Cui Chan's inner anger and shame, Song Fanjing showed no expression.

Even if the person opposite her is the 'Chief of the Demon Locking Forest', one of the three great elders, in the next fifty years, if nothing unexpected happens, he will definitely become the mainstay of the next generation of Yunluan Palace like her.

But so what?
It was just that Song Fanjing could barely remember his name.

After all, no matter what he was thinking.

The paths of the two will never intersect in the slightest.

Thinking of this, the woman turned around and wanted to take the person she brought with her away safely.

Song Chaixin could not avoid unfair treatment.

But at least.
My own appearance can also keep him in the spotlight and his situation won't be too difficult.

But the rest depends on him.

Song Fanjing thought so in his heart.

At the same time, unconsciously, he felt something strange while looking at the young man named 'Song Chai Xin' by himself.

She always felt as if she was looking in a mirror.

in case,

His identity was exposed as early as the beginning, so how was the situation he suffered different from that of Song Chaixin?

The rumors circulating in Yunluan Mountain are pure nonsense.

they will never know
The seemingly "respected" senior sister and young palace master were actually helping the little fellow in front of them only out of their own selfish motives.

just
Whoosh!
at this time,

A golden decree came from the top of the Cloud Luan, the Cloudtop Lake, and suddenly descended in front of the Demon Locking Forest. It then slowly opened and was exposed to everyone's vision:
[As the young master of the Sword Palace, you should be tolerant and inclusive, respect your teachers and elders, and make friends with people of the same faith. How can you go off the mark just because of a disagreement? ]

[You will be punished to kneel in front of the "Guanjianlin Sword Monument" for three months, and have your heart pierced by the sword energy, as a warning to others.]

The words on the edict popped out one by one.

A hint of sarcasm appeared on Song Fanjing's cold face.

Then she raised her neck and looked towards the highest point of Yunluan Peak, where there was a lake covered with ice and snow all year round.

"Ah."

"You also think that I did something wrong?"

Why don't we care about the fighting and violence in the past?

Just because I stand up for a half-demon, do I have to punish him severely?
Since you are dissatisfied,

Why don't you just destroy yourself!
Or is it out of some guilt in your heart?
At this moment, a bone-chilling cold came over her. Although she was surrounded by glory and splendor, Song Fanjing felt as if she was walking on thin ice.

The rapid progress in her practice almost made her forget her own situation.

It seems that everything is going well, but too much is as bad as too little!

Sometimes, the higher you stand, the harder it is to fall if something goes wrong.
It will also be more miserable.

The woman, with her lips tightly pursed, glanced around at the disciples who were looking down but unable to hide their gloating.

And there is a group of younger generations who respect her but are still puzzled by her actions.

For the first time, she felt a bottomless fear in her heart.

The road ahead is confusing and there is no one to walk with me.

This is indeed a very terrible thing.

Even if one's faith in Taoism is as solid as a rock.

It is impossible to be completely unshakable.

Until Song Fanjing turned his head.

Seeing him frowning and looking at the decree, his displeasure was almost beyond words, and he had absolutely no respect for the so-called 'Yunluan Sword Master'.
Some were simply worried about her situation, fearing that they would implicate her, Song Chai Xinshi.

The 'Reincarnation Fragments' in his arms were getting hot, and lines of words were taking shape.

Seeing Song Chaixin's sincere words engraved on the heavenly book, without any worries of fraud, Song Fanjing felt for the first time in his life that
I have the possibility to put down the "mask" in front of others.

Three months.

View the Sword Forest.

The 'Yunluan Sword Net' that covers the entire Yunluan Mountain is an authentic sword that maintains the sword energy within it, and Yunluan is suppressed within it.

But the sword monument is at the entrance of Guanjian Forest.

All disciples who enter the "Sword Viewing Forest" to choose swords, or to comprehend the mysteries, will pass through the entrance.

Looking at the Sword Monument in the Sword Forest, it is filled with the sword energy of the thousands of swords in the Sword Forest.

Even for a "great innate" figure, it would be extremely difficult to kneel in the front, as it was like the skin was torn by the sword energy all the time, and the pain was heart-wrenching.

But compared to the pain of the body.

What is even more difficult to accept is the trauma to the soul.

This place is crowded with people coming and going, which means that almost every disciple of Yunluan Mountain who passed by could see the young palace chairman, with waist-length black hair and a pale face, kneeling in front of the sword stele.

For those who are usually high and mighty.

Sometimes, losing face is more difficult to accept than being seriously injured.

But Song Fanjing just ignored all this and regarded this "baptism" as a stepping stone to hone himself.

This is her.

Song Dynasty Buddhist mirror.

Born with a sword.

Why did she want to be the leader of the sword art in the northwestern 'Aquarius State' for the past three hundred years?

Because if you can become a legend like that.

Even if all the dirty deeds about her were made public, no one would say anything about it.

The days passed by.

Song Chaixin has never come here once.

At the beginning, there were disciples who passed by her from time to time, standing on her side and mocking Song Chaixin's "heartless and treacherous" behavior.

But when the first month passed.

These sounds are much quieter.

When the second and third months passed
This is the Sword Viewing Forest, in front of the Sword Monument.

Then there was another young man covered in blood, kneeling on the ground next to her, looking normal.

[In the first month, Song Chaixin left the Demon-Locking Forest and entered the Miscellaneous Servants' Court. He chopped wood and made fire during the day, and practiced at night. By the end of the month, he had mastered the martial arts 'Golden Muscle and Jade Meridians' and the boxing 'Meteor Chasing the Moon Boxing Sutra'.]

[In the second month, Song Chaixin left the chores courtyard and submitted 17 visiting cards, one per day, and challenged 17 people who were at the second and third stages of Wuguan Foundation Establishment under the "Zhou Tian Cai Qi" technique, without losing a single one!]

[And these people, without exception, are all people who have insulted your behavior in public. ]

[In the third month, Song Chaixin entered the Demon-Locking Forest, drank the demon blood, activated his own blood, moved blood and refined marrow day and night, and finally succeeded in 'Mercury Blood and Silver Marrow'. Then]

[Looking for the law enforcement elder, with the body of 'mercury blood and silver marrow', he wants to fight with Cui Chan on the 'punishment sword platform' in the same realm. ]

[In this battle, he was nearly beaten to death.]

[However, at the critical moment of life and death, Song Chai Xin comprehended the artistic conception of the 'Meteor Chasing the Moon Fist Sutra' and performed a 'Sun and Moon Shine Together', forcing Cui Chan to put on the Water and Fire Fairy Clothes and resist with luck. He successfully defeated the leader of the authentic sect with a body that had practiced for three months! ]

【Afterwards, he was punished to kneel before the sword tablet for a month because of being put on the "Sword Punishment Platform".】

Three months.

Almost every day, the "fragmented pages of the heavenly book" that he carried with him would have the deeds of Song Chai Xin engraved on them.

Song Fanjing watched it for three whole months.

Until Song Chaixin moved a seat next to her and sat down, not caring at all even though he was covered in blood.

"Is it worth your effort?"

Song Fanjing's tone was complicated and his heartstrings were trembling.

In response, the young man wiped the blood off his face and smiled:
"You asked me to call you 'sister', but I always feel awkward because sometimes, I feel that you are quite immature."

"Obviously you don't need to stand up for me."

"Sister."

His eyes suddenly became serious:

"You had many choices, but you chose the worst one."

"but me"

"There is only one choice."

"That is, I will share your joys and sorrows, and we will prosper together."

“That’s from a rational perspective.”

Song Chai Xin held his head high, allowing the sword energy to wash over his body, leaving his skin, tendons, and bones exposed, but he remained calm:
"If you look at it from an emotional point of view."

"To be honest, I have only known you and I only trust you in my life."

"I can't bear to see you being bullied."

At this moment, the young man's shoulders seemed to be carrying all the breeze and bright moon.

After hearing this, the woman said nothing but just blinked.

But the light in his eyes was brighter than ever before.

[Song Fanjing's favorability towards you has increased, from regretful that we didn't meet earlier to loyal to each other! ]
