Two not-too-thick, not-too-thin manuals lay quietly on the desk before Meng Qi. They contained peerless swordsmanship passed down from the immemorial era—Immortal Slaying and Immortal Execution—and the handwritten notes of many patriarchs from Ren Qiushui's Master's Sect.
These were not True Intent Inheritances; they could only record what their authors had mastered or understood.

That's why I didn't dare pass them on recklessly."
