Chapter 147 - I Am Not Alone

"Hey, what happened?" Qiao Fu frowned when Qin bursts the door open and enters the room. His action made her frightened for a moment. But, she quickly calmed down. She didn't sense any sort of anger in his face.

Qin stopped in front of her and asked "Did you do something else with the sword dual cultivation?"

Qiao Fu tilts her head and suddenly her expression dropped as she spoke "Did something bad happen?"

She was frightened because she wasn't sure if her creation was perfect. And, so she immediately got the worst-case scenario in her head.

Qin shook his head and said "It's not something bad rather something curious. Because my sword cultivation improved as well."

Qin said while releasing his sword energy.

"Wow! How is this possible? I don't have that much knowledge to create a mutually beneficial cultivation technique. Are you sure it happened because of our sword dual cultivation?" Qiao Fu's eyes widen upon seeing his sword energy.

It was well refined as always but it was enormous. Unlike in Sword Energy Realm, each upgrade in Sword Heart Realm increases the amount of sword energy by two times. And, the single-stage of Sword Heart Realm has an equal amount of sword energy from the ninth stage Sword Energy Realm.

"Because you played with the cultivation technique that doesn't belong to the realm of your understanding." At this moment, a deep and hoarse voice rang out of his body.

Qiao Fu stared at Qin with confusion.

Qin shrugged his shoulders and said, "That's Xiao Lan."

Only then Qiao Fu understand the source of the voice and asked "Senior, do you mean True Invincible Sword Technique?"

"Yes, that sword technique was created by my master and later enhanced by the young lord. He left this sword technique to change your fate. But instead of following normal route..... It seems you twisted some parts."

"Girl, originally, I didn't know you were tempering with that sword technique. But now, I know, I can't let you do continue it. You don't have any idea about this sword technique. Even if you practice it to perfection, you can pretty much reach the top of the world." Xiao Lan tried to convince her.

But, Qiao Fu shook her head and said "Senior, I know you don't agree with this change. But, I can't go back. I don't have a solid heart to become a swordsman like Qin. And, I don't have the talent to become a swordsman either. I know what I am doing is not the original intent of your master."

"But, this is the path I have chosen and I can't go back. I am going to walk in the path of Sword Dual Cultivation."

Hearing her words, Xiao Lan slowly floated out of him. It was staying inside his sea of consciousness for some reason.

"Girl, you don't understand the scope of danger you are messing with. Do you think this sword technique was created for everyone to use? No, it was solely created for young lord by the master. But, Young Lord enhanced it and made it possible for others to practice it as well."

"If you mess this up, you will be stuck at the point where you can't improve your swordsman nor you can change your swordsmanship. The only possible way would be breaking your sword cultivation and cultivating from the start."

Seeing Xiao Lan, Liu Bing was stunned. She basically had no idea about everything they were talking about.

"Is this a divine treasure?" Liu Bing pulled Qiao Fu's sleeve and asked with curious eyes.

"Humph! Little Girl, do you think a divine treasure is good? It's not even worthy to polish my shoe." Xiao Lan instantly floated in front of her, releasing its power. It spoke with a proud tone.

"But, Mr. Sword Spirit, you don't have shoes." Liu Bing pointed her finger at its tip and spoke with a cute expression.

"Puff!" Behind Xiao Lan, Qin bursts into laughter. Xiao Lan didn't know what to say at this moment. He floated towards Qiao Fu and continued "Girl, give up the Sword Dual Cultivation if you want to practice that sword technique."

Qiao Fu shook her head and said "Senior, I know you have immense knowledge. But sometimes, even a child can make a better decision than adults. I know my limits and I know my path. And, I know the best path for myself."

Saying so, she turned her head at Qin and asked "Do you believe that I can recreate your Dual Cultivation Body?"

"Of course, I believe you. If there is someone who can, then it must be you." Qin smiled and nodded his head.

"Hush! You two clearly don't understand the problem here." Xiao Lan sighed and turned his head at Qin, saying "You possess Dual Cultivation Body that Mike Tyson created using all of his experience and let Claire complete it before his death."

"But, our family circle doesn't like it. It's not that they don't like sex rather they don't like dual cultivation. You have to understand. Your goal is not Mike Tyson, nor the three swords. Your goal is to surpass them."

"But, if you indulge yourself with the sword energy produced out of dual cultivation, then you will be stuck below them."

Hearing his words, Qin and Qiao Fu tilts their heads in confusion. Qin stared at Xiao Lan and asked "How?"

Xiao Lan floated in front of him and asked "Do you know the difference between Supreme Way of Sword and True Invincible Sword Technique?"

"I haven't practiced the latter so I don't know." Qin shrugged his shoulders and said.

"Yes, you don't know but you should know. Because the difference between those sword techniques is evolution. True Invincible Sword Technique can indeed help you reach the state of three swords but you can't surpass them."

"But, Supreme Way of Sword is developed in a different way. It is developed to infinitely evolve along the way. And, don't forget, both techniques are developed by the same person. If you get involved in both techniques, it creates a different path for you which in itself is a restriction."

"Because if you want to keep on improving later, she must improve as well. And, for the matter of fact, the sword cultivation for you has just started. If you are running a hundred-meter long race, currently you are just one meter away from the start line. You still need to cover nine-nine meters in order to complete the race."

"You can do it. Your father was able to do it. My master was able to do it. And, even that cockroach was able to do it. You can do it as well. But, let me be blunt here, there is no way she can do it. She could possibly push herself to the level of current three swords because of her creative mind."

"But, above that, I don't think that's possible. That's why I want her to stop. It's not just about her. If she continues, she will harm you as well."

Hearing his words, Qiao Fu slightly trembled. She lowered her head and clenched her fist. She was dissatisfied with this. She wanted to walk on this path. But, she didn't want to make it harder for Qin. She loves Qin and will never do anything to make him sad.

But, suddenly, a palm rested on her head. She slightly raised her head and Qin spoke "Do you believe in yourself?"

Hearing those words, Qiao Fu tears up and nods her head.

"Good! Then, I believe in you." Qin smiled and turned his head at Xiao Lan.

"Xiao Lan, you are not incorrect. In fact, I am thankful that you thought for me. But, this is her path and I can't stop her."

"But, young master..." Xiao Lan tried to convince Qin but he raised his hand paused it from speaking further.

"Xiao Lan, we are swordsmen. We are not best at killing our opponent with a single word. We are best at searching and locating our enemies unique and exploiting them. And, if the enemy doesn't have a weakness, then we will create one."

"It all comes to how you perceive your enemy. Qiao Fu wants to walk on this path, then let her walk. We should never push the blame to others for our incompetency. If she does reach such heights, then we will continue on this path."

"She is a dual cultivator. I am a dual cultivator. She is a swordsman. I am a swordsman. I have a Dual Cultivation Body. She wants to create a Dual Cultivation Body. Before I was alone but she is with me.. Together, we will create a perfect path of Dual Sword Cultivation."
