Even though every genius of the Way of the Sword possessed an extremely unique Sword Intent, most were still focused on killing and destruction!
Someone like Chen Changxin, who could balance offense and defense and decide life and death with a single thought, was simply too rare!
Only the greatest among sword geniuses could comprehend such a dazzling Sword Intent!
"Die?" Hearing Die's cry of surprise, Chen Changxin immediately sheathed his sword and looked in the direction of her voice.
On a tree in the oasis not far away, Die sat with one leg crossed over the other, watching him from afar.
Chen Changxin walked beneath the tree and raised his head slightly.
He could vaguely make out a flash of snowy white.
Chen Changxin froze on the spot.
Seeing Chen Changxin's expression, Die's beautiful face reddened. Somewhat embarrassed, she shot him a glare before immediately leaping down from the tree.
"Changxin, did you just comprehend Sword Intent?" Die suppressed the shyness in her heart and looked at Chen Changxin in confusion.
"Yes. It seemed I had some kind of epiphany just now and entered an extremely mysterious state, comprehending Sword Heart," Chen Changxin said calmly.
"Just as I thought. I knew you, Changxin, were no ordinary man. One day, you'll soar through the heavens like a dragon! If my sister knew you had comprehended Sword Intent—"
"Wait? What did you just say? You comprehended Sword Heart?!"
Die was stunned. Her cherry lips parted wide, and she stared blankly at Chen Changxin with utter shock on her face.
"That's right. Sword Heart!" Chen Changxin nodded.
"Holy shit. Sword Heart?! How old is Changxin? Nineteen, right? He's only in the Dou Ling Realm, yet he's already comprehended Sword Heart?"
"If word of this got out, the entire continent would probably erupt into frenzy!" Die stared blankly at Changxin, unable to calm herself for a long time.
"You flatter me, Princess Die!"
Chen Changxin smiled faintly and said modestly, "Changxin has merely gained a small insight. It is not worth alarming Your Majesty!"
Hahahahahahahaha! As expected, I really am an unparalleled genius!
The next instant, seeing those words appear in his diary, then looking at the humble and low-key Chen Changxin before her, who resembled a refined gentleman, Die's mouth twitched.
At least wait until I've left before acting so smug!
The other heroines who saw the diary update were equally stunned.
"Pah, pah, pah! So narcissistic this early in the morning?!"
The women felt utterly helpless that Chen Changxin's very first diary update was such a narcissistic declaration.
Still, many of them were even more curious about what had happened to Chen Changxin for him to become this conceited!
"Die, what's wrong?" Seeing that something seemed off about Die's expression, Chen Changxin asked gently.
"I'm fine. Since you've just comprehended Sword Intent, Changxin, I won't disturb you any further while you continue to contemplate it," Die said, shaking her head.
She was afraid that Chen Changxin would write something later that she would be unable to control her emotions over.
After all, who knew what shocking nonsense Chen Changxin might write next!
"Take care, Princess Die." Chen Changxin cupped his hands.
It just so happened that he had gained something from his recent insight and needed to record it in his diary.
He also needed to use up his chance to draw a prize!
Sure enough, the brilliance of a genius could never be concealed!
I merely made a slight move, and I had already reached the limit of the Way of the Sword!
Who could have imagined that, at such a young age, before even reaching twenty, I would comprehend Sword Heart?!
Princess Die was really adorable just now! After seeing that I had comprehended the Great Luo Sword Heart, she was so shocked that she couldn't close her le—pah! A slip of the pen, I meant she couldn't close her mouth!
Sure enough, for a sword genius like me, not practicing the sword would truly be a waste!
Princess Die's surprised expression just now was really adorable! She was like a little girl seeing the hero she admired. Who would have thought that even a noble snake woman like Princess Die could show such an adorable side!
I understand. After learning that I had comprehended Sword Heart, Princess Die left in such a hurry because she was afraid that if she stayed any longer, she would be unable to resist offering herself to me. After all, only the strong deserve beauties!
Unfortunately, I am destined not to belong to Princess Die alone!
Having just returned to the courtyard of the Queen's Palace, Die took out her diary and immediately saw content that made her vision go dark.
"Chang! Xin! What strange nonsense are you recording again?!"
Die wanted nothing more than to turn back, pin Chen Changxin to the ground, and viciously ravage him.
What did he mean by saying she couldn't close her legs?!
Die admitted that she had indeed been dumbfounded at the time.
But the reason her legs had not closed was because she had been swinging them in the first place and had forgotten about it for a moment!
"What do you mean, I wouldn't be able to resist offering myself to you?! Am I such a wanton snake woman?! And what do you mean, you can't belong to me alone?! Are you afraid this princess won't realize that you, Changxin, are a philanderer?!"
Die went rigid!
Her pair of delicate fists clenched tight.
Die was instantly rather glad that she had the foresight to leave.
If she were still by Chen Changxin's side and saw such insubordinate, master-defying, ancestor-disgracing content, who knew what she might do.
At the very least, she would have to let Chen Changxin witness just how formidable she, the Snake People Clan's princess, was.
"What?! Changxin actually comprehended a Sword Heart?!"
Elsewhere, Medusa had just finished cultivating when she opened the diary and froze at its contents.
"As expected of our Snake People Clan's prince. Changxin has finally not let his master down! He truly deserves his status as the Snake People Clan's prince!"
A faint smile appeared on Medusa's icy face.
She was clearly extremely satisfied with Chen Changxin's cultivation progress.
But in the next instant, Medusa's expression darkened!
"Hmph! That girl Die seems to have far too much free time lately. Loitering around Changxin whenever she has nothing to do—does she want to challenge This King?!"
Seeing that Chen Changxin's words were filled with fondness for Die, Medusa's gaze turned cold as she looked toward the courtyard where Die lived.
Chen Changxin was the one she had brought back!
What right did that girl Die have to compete with her!
Now that I've comprehended the Great Luo Sword Heart, there should be very few people who can compete with me in attainments in the Way of the Sword!
Given enough time, once my Sword Intent reaches perfection, I'll become the one and only peerless Sword Emperor on the Dou Qi Continent!
Life is lonely as snow; the heights are too cold to endure!
But Xueyue Sword Immortal Li Hanyi should have comprehended a Sword Heart as well. Yun Yun should be somewhat inferior!
When the time comes, my Hanyi can be the Sword Empress. Who the hell wants to stand alongside those people as one of the Five Great Sword Immortals? Do a bunch of rough men deserve to be mentioned in the same breath as my Hanyi?!
Come to think of it, I wonder whether my Hanyi has encountered that pretty-boy Dao Sword Immortal yet. He hasn't tricked her away already, has he?
I also wonder whether the Golden Coffin has appeared yet. When it does, my Hanyi's greatest destined trial will arrive!
Damn it, Xueyue City is too far from the Snake People Clan. I need to grow stronger quickly so I can go help my baby Hanyi!
I have to enter the Dou Zong realm as soon as possible—no, Dou Zong probably isn't enough. Dou Zun, Dou Sheng—only then will I be able to protect Hanyi!
Otherwise, if my baby Hanyi gets hurt by those sunless bastards from Dark River, it'll be far too heartbreaking!
Baby Hanyi, you must wait obediently for me in Xueyue City. Nothing must happen to you!
