Martial Forest

Chapter 33: If It Is Fated

Looking at the fading back of Li Xian, Xu Wen ask his teacher

‘Is it alright teacher, for him to go alone?’ he said with worry in his tone.

Xu Wen is not a martial artist but he had the honor of one. Li Xian is younger than him but the young boy had already save his life twice.

How could he not worry about his benefactor condition? Bai Qingniu smiles bitterly and said

If it’s other people, it probably isn’t alright to be up and walking after enduring such injury’ There is a silence for a second in the hut before Bai Qingniu resume his word

‘But young hero Li is not like most people’ he concluded. Then he sighed.

Bai Qingniu is unlike his granddaughter and his disciple who did not know the true peculiarities of this young boy that lives inside the forest.

Shi Yuan is not some small fry like Wang Li.

That is a true martial expert. Of course they were many factors that t contributes to Li Xian victory against Shi Yuan but it did not change the fact that a young kid around twelve to thirteen years old defeated someone with the title One Blade.

One could only imagine the height this young boy would achieve when he comes of age

If he tells the world that a kid killed One Blade Shi Yuan, they must think that he Bai Qingniu the Divine Physician is lying through his teeth.

And for this matter to spread, it is also not good.

Broken Sword Sect is not some small sect. If Blade Monarch Wei Yan knows about this, he would surely seek revenge for his disciple.

Even though Boren Sword Sect could be considered as an orthodox sect, not all of its member is clean.

For example, Shi Yuan and Wang li. Their attitude shows naught the act of a true gentlemen. Bai Qingniu is thinking about Li Xian and how to dull the impact of this matter.

The death of such an expert and dying at the hands of such a young child would surely become a taint in the reputation of the Broken Sword Sect

Chengdu is far from Henan but that did not mean they couldn’t come here. Li Xian in Bai Qingniu mind is a very mysterious child

Li Xian, this young boy either had a fortuitous encounter that defy imagination or he has some powerful reclusive expert behind his back teaching him some supreme martial arts technique and becoming the successor of their school of martial arts

Bai Qingniu even after a week has passed still replay that battle inside his mind.

In the end, he come to the conclusion that if not for the unexpected sword Qi that shoot out from Li Xian index finger at the end of the battle, Li Xian and them would all probably be dead that day.

Because if Li Xian did not have any other technique other than swordplay that he had shown, it is clear that Li Xian would lose.

Hmm’ Bai Qingniu sighed a bit. Then there is a thought budding in his mind

‘The Longevity Scroll’ he suddenly thought to himself.

This young kid could already understand the intricacies of such a complicated sword technique and his mastery of control over his internal energy is masterful

If its him, could he learn the internal energy practice of the Longevity Scroll? He thought to himself.

All over these years, Bai Qingniu still remember the content of the Longevity Scroll owing to his memory that could remember everything he sees.

He had try to learn it but he could not make any headway in it and after living his life on the other side of the darkness, living in light, having children and having grandchildren, he had long decided to no longer practice any martial arts as he did not want to get sucked back in to the world of martial arts.

There is a thought budding in his heart and in his mind and he could not stop thinking about it. The Longevity Scroll is very complicated.

But it is also the crystallization of effort of Duke Jingwu of Wei of the highest peak of martial arts attainment.

Wouldn’t it be a sin for such powerful martial arts to be lost and only monopolized by evil sect like the Underworld Gate?

Bai Qingniu had long renounced his former allegiance to the heterodox path and he wishes to pass down the Longevity Scroll to someone.

That is one of the wishes he has that he dares not tell anyone

But he had never seen someone who is suitable enough that he could pass down the art

And now, like a twist of fate, here he met a divine child that is highly talented in martial arts, possessing a brave and valiant disposition, and also a certain kindness in his heart.

Giving these Scroll to those old people, all they would do is try to fight more power. And even if it was given to them, could they even master it? Even Taizong failed.

Bai Qingniu close his eyes, smiling and the he made his decision.

‘I’ll wait until you come back then. If its destined, then you could understand it. If not, then this matter is not fated for you’ he said to himself as he returns back to his task.

After all, since Li Xian is up and running, they too had to prepare to leave. And before he leaves, Bai Qingniu wanted to give a present to Li Xian.

To a benefactor that save their lives two times, what thing Bai Qingniu could not give? He thought about it and the more he thought about it the more he feels he should do that.

Longevity Scroll. It had long brought bloodshed to the martial arts world.

‘I am not fated with it. But the boy might be different’ thinking of this he smiles mysteriously
