Chapter 76 - No Woman In Your Heart, Drawing Your Sword To Slay An Immortal

Ding Yue was completely dumbfounded.

The first stage of the way of the sword required him to forget his sweetheart?

Why did he have to forget his sweetheart?

A beautiful figure appeared in his mind.

Su Xian’er was also dumbfounded. What did one’s sweetheart have to do with Sword Dao cultivation?

Chu Xuan had said it so seriously too. She thought that it was some extraordinary revelation about the way of the sword, but it turned out to be about forgetting his sweetheart?

“Do you know the meaning of the first stage of the way of the sword? Do you know why countless sword cultivators are unable to break through the first stage of the way of the sword and tread upon the path of the Supreme Sword?”

“If you can’t even break through the first stage, how can you even talk about the Supreme Sword?”

Chu Xuan was not surprised by Ding Yue’s reaction.

“Master, please enlighten me!”

Ding Yue’s eyes were slightly confused.

Forget about his sweetheart?

Forget about her?

Would he not be able to tread upon the path of the Supreme Sword if he did not forget about her?

Ding Yue, who possessed the Heaven’s Will Sword Pulse, had a special obsession with the Sword Dao.

“If you have someone in your heart, then where is the sword?”

Chu Xuan’s voice was like the roar of the Great Dao as seven-colored divine light bloomed around his body.

A halo appeared behind his head and shone in all directions.

Sagemaster’s Halo!

Looking at his master who was bathed in the seven-colored divine light, Ding Yue was shocked. He suddenly felt that everything his master said was true!

“Where is the sword?” Ding Yue muttered to himself.

“Can they coexist?” Lacking confidence, he asked carefully.

“How can it coexist? Since it coexists, is your sword still the only one? Is your sword still pure?”

Ding Yue’s brain buzzed. Yes, how can it be exclusive if it coexists?

However, the beautiful figure in his mind was holding him back.

Forget her?

It was easier said than done!

“Let me ask you, if your sweetheart’s friends and relatives want to kill you, will you let them?”

“If one day your sweetheart falls in love with someone else and wants to kill you, will your sword still be able to stab her?”

“If one day your sweetheart falls into the hands of the enemy and they threaten you with her life, what will you do?”

Chu Xuan’s voice rang loudly like a bell as it echoed directly into Ding Yue’s mind.

His face turned paler with each question.

“If there is another bond in your heart, where is the sword? How can you still focus on the way of the sword? How can you tread upon the path of the Supreme Sword?”

Chu Xuan narrowed his eyes as he looked at Ding Yue.

Ding Yue’s face turned pale and his entire body started to shake.

For a moment, he did not know how to answer Chu Xuan or what decision to make.

What should he do? Did he really have to choose between his sweetheart and the Supreme Sword?

“You have to know that your sweetheart will only bring you harm!”

Chu Xuan saw that it was almost time, so he directly gave Ding Yue a heart-piercing blow.

Boom!

Ding Yue’s brain was in overdrive!

His mind was filled with the words, “Your sweetheart will only bring you harm!”

In Nine Swords Mountain, he had been coldly reprimanded, stepped on, and slapped around.

He had been sent flying with a kick, and the people around him constantly mocked and ridiculed him!

Her pretty face had gone from a charming smile at the beginning to cold glares, ridicule, contempt, and humiliation later on.

She never looked at him again.

Ding Yue was panting and sweating profusely, and his face was twisted with pain.

Chu Xuan just looked at him.

As the fated person of the Southern Region, if he could not even pass this test, then he was too useless and unworthy of being Chu Xuan’s disciple.

If Chu Xuan did not help him to free himself from this, Ding Yue would sooner or later be cheated by his childhood sweetheart!

Su Xian’er watched silently from the side. Ding Yue appeared to be in a painful dilemma. It was obvious that his sweetheart had caused him a lot of harm.

After ten minutes, Ding Yue gradually calmed down.

The beautiful figure in his mind was no longer gentle and beautiful, but cold and heartless instead.

Thinking back to the past, Ding Yue suddenly realized that he had been hurt all along.

His master was right. The one he loved would only bring him harm!

His gaze gradually became firm. He looked at Chu Xuan and said, “Master, I understand!”

“You are a promising young man!”

Chu Xuan was gratified. There was hope for his eldest disciple after all.

“Master, please enlighten me. What is the second stage of the way of the sword?”

Chu Xuan narrowed his eyes and said, “The second stage of the way of the sword is, when you see a beautiful woman, don’t let your mind wander. You must keep the soul of the sword in your heart!”

Ding Yue was a little confused.

Why was it related to a woman again?

“You don’t understand?”

“Not really.”

Chu Xuan’s spiritual power condensed into a person. The person’s face and appearance were rough.

The person condensed from his spiritual power stood next to Su Xian’er.

“Which one did you look at first? Who did you pay more attention to?” Chu Xuan asked.

Ding Yue looked over in confusion. The first person he saw was naturally Su Xian’er, who was dressed as a servant.

His attention was also more inclined to Su Xian’er.

After all, every normal man would pay more attention to the peerless beauty.

“It was Sister Su.”

“You were distracted by her beauty, weren’t you? Disciple, think about it. When you are fighting with someone, if a beautiful woman appears, she will either flirt with you or act extremely seductively. If you get distracted by her, what will happen to you?”

“Besides, in some illusions, there are countless beautiful women. If you are caught in them, your life will be forfeit.”

“Why is it a woman’s beauty? Weel, opposites attract. This is part of the Great Dao of Heaven!”

Ding Yue could already imagine the scene in his mind. He would be holding a longsword and confronting an enemy. Suddenly, from behind the enemy, a beautiful woman appeared and started flirting with him, trying to seduce him.

Would he not be distracted by her actions?

Given his current state of mind, he would definitely be distracted.

Once he was distracted, he would be killed!

Hiss!

When he thought of this, Ding Yue immediately sucked in a cold breath of air. His master’s words were reasonable!

“Master, I will definitely break through the second stage as soon as possible!”

“En, that’s good.”

Chu Xuan was very satisfied with Ding Yue’s performance. “In the second stage, seeing a beautiful woman not being distracted is the first part, and having the soul of the sword in your heart is the second. As for what the soul of the sword is, everyone’s comprehension is different. You will need to figure it out yourself!”

“Yes, Master!”

Su Xian’er was a little indignant. After all, up until now, she had only heard Chu Xuan express one thing — women were obstacles!

“Sir, can’t a woman become a strong person?”

Chu Xuan glanced at her. Why was this little girl joining in on the fun?

“It varies from person to person, and it varies from dao to dao. Those who walk the path of the Supreme Sword must only be interested in the sword.”

Chu Xuan continued, “In other words, it’s the same for women who cultivate the Supreme Sword. Just change the distraction from a woman to a man.”

“How can it be the same?”

Su Xian’er said unwillingly, “A woman won’t be distracted when looking at a man, right?”

This little girl was still unconvinced.

Chu Xuan said seriously, “Let’s not talk about whether you’d be distracted by a handsome man. Let me ask you this.”

“When you are confronting an enemy, an ugly naked man shows up performing dirty gestures and poses in front of you. Will you be confused? Will you be angry? Will you be distracted? If you are not mentally strong, you’ll probably scream.”

Su Xian’er was stunned. Her master was indeed a teacher. He always looked at the problem with such depth.

If someone really did that, Su Xian’er could not guarantee that she would not get mad or be disturbed.

Can you handle this situation, little girl?

Chu Xuan ignored her dazed expression and turned his attention back to Ding Yue. “For the third stage of the way of the sword, if you don’t have a woman in your heart, you can kill an immortal by drawing your sword!”

Ding Yue’s blood immediately surged. ‘If I don’t have a woman in my heart, I’ll be able to kill an immortal by drawing my sword?’

I, Ding Yue, must tread upon the path of the Supreme Sword and kill an immortal by drawing my sword!

“Disciple, you must remember that having a woman in your life will affect the speed at which you draw your sword!” Chu Xuan warned him solemnly.

“Master, I know. I will definitely break through the three stages of the way of the sword and tread upon the path of the Supreme Sword!”

Ding Yue’s gaze was resolute. Sweetheart, get lost!

I, Ding Yue, am a man who wants to slaughter immortals!
