Yun Shu didn’t know the conversation happening between that chatty old man and his students. However, he felt that domineering Spirit Qi sweeping the entire valley in person. And so did Su Lingwen.
Earlier, Yun Shu had directly gone back to the square to meet Su Lingwen after he left that nagging old man. However, before they could chat, that overwhelming Spirit Qi arrived like a tornado.
Yun Shu was struck dumb, remaining silent for a while before he could barely overcome his shock to open his mouth. “What… What was that?”
Yun Shu’s voice was slightly trembling.
“It came from the Forest of Deadly Wind. Perhaps, it was some huge change in nature…” said Su Lingwen, frowning.
Yun Shu nodded. After all, it was too hard for them to imagine that the immense power actually belonged to a human being.
“Where is the Forest of Deadly Wind?” Yun Shu suddenly asked.
“I once read about it in a book. The Forest of Deadly Wind is one of the most treacherous places in this world. Its south end connects to this valley, and the woods are extended all the way into the far north. Nobody knows what it’s like, and nobody wants to know,” Su Lingwen explained.
Yun Shu nodded, although he didn’t quite understand. He gazed into the distance, his interest in the Forest of Deadly Wind rising by the minute.
That Spirit Qi was extremely unusual. If a chance were to arise, Yun Shu would definitely go into the forest to take a look. At least, he believed that cleaving the killing wind in the forest would make his practice much more efficient.
After all, he could always use that stone gate to escape.
“Try not to think about it for now. Why don’t you practice swords with me? I know you gained a better understanding of sword intent recently,” said Su Lingwen.
Although Yun Shu didn’t expect her offer, he still hurriedly nodded. “Sure!”
Su Lingwen picked up her wooden sword, while Yun Shu picked up his stick. They were using the same sword intent indicated on the steles to fight.
Of course, Su Lingwen would restrain her power to match Yun Shu’s level. Meanwhile, Yun Shu would stay where he was.
This was purely a fight between their comprehension of the sword intent.
However, Yun Shu didn’t last more than twenty moves, and the stick in his hand was thrown away by Su Lingwen’s wooden sword.
“We’ll do it again!” Yun Shu wouldn’t give up so easily.
“It’s not necessary. We’ll try later when you get better,” said Su Lingwen.
Yun Shu had no other option but to agree. However, he was unwilling to yield in his heart.
He could only last twenty moves…
That was embarrassing.
“It’s getting late. I’ll come back tomorrow. You sure you don’t want to go back with me?” asked Yun Shu.
