What about Zhexiu? Chen Changsheng thought to himself, could it be that Su Li just wants to force Zhexiu to walk through this path brimming with sword intent to discipline him?

Or was it a test a father left for his son-in-law?

”My father's motives are not as beautiful as you imagine. He just doesn't want Zhexiu to meet me. In truth, he definitely didn't think that you would really be able to force your way through.”

Upon hearing this voice, Chen Changsheng turned around.

And then he saw someone he had not seen for many years: Qi Jian.

The Qi Jian he recognized from the Mausoleum of Books and then the Garden of Zhou had been thin and short, a timid and weak young man. Thus, even though he had become aware of her true status ages ago, seeing her wearing a green dress still stunned him for quite some time.

”Long time no see,” he finally said.

Qi Jian pushed her messy hair behind her ear and asked, ”How many years? It's hard to tell the passing of time in these mountains, and I'm too lazy to keep count.”

She was now a bright and cheerful young lady, appearing even healthier than she was in the past. There was none of the melancholy that Chen Changsheng had imagined.

Chen Changsheng looked around and discovered that this green valley was lush with plant life. He could see waterfalls in the distance and pools of water peeking through the trees while birds constantly sang. It was an exceptionally beautiful sight.

But to be imprisoned in a paradise year-round was still incredibly arduous.

Upon thinking of this matter and hearing her words, he became a bit more displeased at Su Li and all of Mount Li.

Seeing his expression, Qi Jian softly said, ”Your Holiness the Pope, have you perhaps misunderstood something?”

Chen Changsheng asked in surprise, ”Are you not imprisoned here?”

Qi Jian replied, ”I truly have spent all of these last few years quietly cultivating the sword in this place.”

Chen Changsheng asked, ”Then why do you need to make excuses for your sect? It's no easy feat to enter and exit this place.”

He still felt a little fear from those dangerous sword intents in that stone wall.

If he had to endure this trial each time he wanted to visit, not even the most breathtaking beauty could tempt him to visit this valley.

Qi Jian knew that he was concerned about her and faintly smiled. ”Besides your method, there are naturally other ways.”

Chen Changsheng froze and thought to himself, are there really other paths to this place? He asked, ”Then when can you leave? He… is on that side.”

Qi Jian's smile faded as she calmly and firmly said, ”If he really wants to meet me, he naturally has to come and see me.”

Chen Changsheng faintly understood her meaning, though he had no way of being sure.

……

……

The dragon of dust gradually settled and the light of the sun began to fall on the cliff once more. The path through the stone wall returned to true peace.

Everyone had apprehensive expressions, unaware of the situation within.

Zhexiu silently stared at the path, in a pensive mood.

Qiushan Jun declared, ”He passed through.”

Guan Feibai glanced at the position of the sun and an expression of shock appeared on his face. ”He only needed forty-five minutes?”

Tang Thirty-Six had no understanding of how difficult it was to traverse that path, but based on Guan Feibai's reaction, he could tell that Chen Changsheng had used an extremely short amount of time. He proudly said, ”If you think about it, his swordplay was personally taught by your martial granduncle. How hard could it be for him to go through that path?”

Bai Cai sneered, ”When Eldest Brother passed through this path five years ago, he only used thirty minutes.”

These words caused Zhexiu to glance at Qiushan Jun and Tang Thirty-Six to fall silent in astonishment.

Qiushan Jun's reputation had already spread across the world, but very few people had seen him personally take action, and Zhexiu and Tang Thirty-Six were no exception.
