296: Shen Xi's confidence
“Your personality is quite similar to the Master’s!”
Upon hearing this, the Sword Spirit did not get angry; instead, he looked at Shen Xi with even greater appreciation.
His Master back then was also like this.
Even when pursued by a certain School, after his Master became powerful, he only executed the primary culprits and did not wipe out the entire School.
In some respects, this could be called womanly compassion.
But similarly, it could also be called principle.
A person who only indiscriminately slaughters is not worthy of being called a Sword Cultivator, and even less worthy of being the Master’s successor.
The Sword Spirit was not angry about Shen Xi’s decision.
“The four subordinate clans were originally inseparable, as they were all personally nurtured by the Master. However, after that incident, the Dongfang Clan and the other three clans gradually grew distant, eventually becoming mortal enemies.”
“However, even so, the Dongfang Clan is the force that understands the other three clans best in the entire world. If you want to find the other three clans, you must start with the Dongfang Clan. You can interact more with this young man named Dongfang Ye; perhaps you will find clues.”
The Little Doll suggested.
Upon hearing this, Shen Xi nodded.
Even if the Little Doll didn't say anything, he would still interact more with Dongfang Ye.
Of course, this was not just to find the whereabouts of the other three clans; more importantly, he recognized Dongfang Ye as a person.
Their personalities were very similar, and their temperaments were compatible; they could become friends.
“I’ll leave the task of finding the other three clans to you. As for the Blood Refining Realm Cultivation Technique, it’s not a big deal for the Dongfang Clan to have it. It was originally taught to them by the Master, and it’s merely the tip of the iceberg of the Master’s Legacy, so there’s no major issue. However, if the other three clans are still alive, their Legacy must be retrieved. Even if it’s just basic content, they are not worthy of continuing to Cultivate it!”
The Sword Spirit emphasized again.
The thought of the other three clans still being alive and Cultivating the Master’s Cultivation Technique made him feel disgusted from the bottom of his heart.
Those traitors are not worthy of Cultivating the Master’s Legacy.
“So, the Blood Refining Realm Cultivation Technique is already the Dongfang Clan’s property?”
Shen Xi suddenly asked.
“That is natural. They are still qualified to Cultivate it.”
The Sword Spirit was puzzled, but subconsciously nodded.
“Then what if I want to teach the Yuánqì Realm Cultivation Technique to Dongfang Ye?”
Shen Xi probed again.
“Absolutely not!”
The Sword Spirit flatly refused.
“Alright!” Shen Xi sighed regretfully. This outcome was within his expectations.
Subsequently, he asked again: “What if the Dongfang Clan teaches the Blood Refining Realm Cultivation Technique to others? Should it not be retrieved?”
“This… that’s not necessary. After all, it’s a Cultivation Technique bestowed upon the Dongfang Clan by the Master; they have the right to handle it.”
The Sword Spirit hesitated for a moment but still replied.
He didn’t know why Shen Xi was asking so many questions.
“That’s good then! So, if Dongfang Ye teaches the Blood Refining Realm Cultivation Technique to my companions, it has nothing to do with me, right? And it doesn’t need to be retrieved, right?”
Shen Xi smiled brightly.
“You brat, you were waiting for me here, weren’t you?”
The Sword Spirit rolled his eyes in exasperation.
Shen Xi was planning to besiege Wei to rescue Zhao!
His previous question about whether he could teach the Yuánqì Realm Cultivation Technique to Dongfang Ye was clearly driven by the same idea.
If the Sword Spirit had allowed it, Shen Xi would have immediately taught the Yuánqì Realm Cultivation Technique to Dongfang Ye, and then had Dongfang Ye teach it to Liu Yiyi and the others.
He was trying to exploit a loophole in the Sword Spirit’s rules!
“You brat, forget it! If you can persuade Dongfang Ye to teach the Blood Refining Realm Cultivation Technique to your friends, then I won’t interfere. However, I doubt you can do it.”
The Sword Spirit rolled his eyes in annoyance, too lazy to bother with Shen Xi.
Beside him, the Little Doll was staring at Shen Xi up and down as if he were a monster.
“Senior, do I have flowers on my face? Why are you staring at me?”
Shen Xi asked.
“I really can’t fathom what you’re thinking! You should know how precious the Master’s Legacy is. If it were anyone else who obtained it, let alone friends, they wouldn’t reveal a single detail even to family or lovers. They would want to hide it, wishing that only they in the entire world knew about it.”
“But you, you actually want to share the Legacy with others. Aren’t you afraid they will surpass you after obtaining the Legacy? Your advantage from obtaining the Legacy will be completely gone!”
The Little Doll couldn’t hold back and blurted out all his questions.
He was quite knowledgeable and had met tens of millions, if not hundreds of millions, of people.
But among all those people, not one was like Shen Xi.
Let alone the Master’s Legacy, even if they obtained just one treasure, they would hide it, fearing it would be discovered.
“Senior overestimates me. I also have selfish motives. If they were strangers, I wouldn’t be willing to share the Legacy with them, but for friends, I am willing.”
“Furthermore, isn’t the purpose of a Legacy to allow future generations to learn, draw inspiration, and ultimately carry it forward? How can a hidden Legacy be passed down?”
“Most importantly, I am confident that even if everyone in the world obtained the same Legacy, I could still transcend and suppress everyone!”
Shen Xi’s reply was incomparably domineering and full of confidence.
So what if everyone obtained the broken sword Master’s Legacy?
Does that mean that starting from the same line, he, Shen Xi, would be inferior to others?
No!
He could still suppress everyone else.
This was Shen Xi’s confidence!
The confidence that only a true powerhouse could possess!
“You!”
At this moment, even the Little Doll was startled by Shen Xi’s confidence.
He had always believed that Shen Xi was no ordinary person, but he never expected such confidence to reside deep within him.
A person like this would undoubtedly achieve great things in the future.
After all, if a Martial Artist didn’t even have confidence in himself, he could never become a being who would stand proudly above all others.
“Good lad! I look forward to your future achievements!”
At this moment, the Sword Spirit, who had disappeared, suddenly spoke.
He admired Shen Xi more and more.
Not only was his personality similar to the Master’s, but even his arrogance seemed to be carved from the same mold as the Master’s.
“Perform well. Based on your current performance, becoming the Master’s Personal Disciple is only a matter of time.”
The Little Doll patted Shen Xi’s shoulder, encouraging him.
Shen Xi was the first person to receive such praise from that arrogant fellow, the Sword Spirit.
One must know that when the Master was in his prime, countless Geniuses from various Domain Realms came to seek discipleship, but the Sword Spirit couldn’t even be bothered to give them a proper look, either disliking them for being too arrogant or deeming them weak and useless.
The Little Doll had never seen the Sword Spirit praise a junior before.
Shen Xi was the first, and likely the last.
“I will continue to work hard!”
