There's Something Wrong With This Account

Chapter 52: [Take Big Steps]

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Sword Cultivators are the mainstream group among cultivators, even in the Demon Sect, the proportion of Sword Cultivators is extremely high.

But throughout the entire Heavenly Dust Continent, only One Sword Mountain and Ten Thousand Sword Mountain, these two Great Sects, are full of Sword Cultivators.

If Lu Xun could one day truly become a Great Cultivator, then whether it’s One Sword Mountain or Ten Thousand Sword Mountain, they would all turn into No Sword Mountain in front of him!

“Is this the power of a Natural Sword Embryo?”

No one can answer for now.

However, they can now feel at ease, Lu Xun has merely deviated in his cultivation path, he probably won’t go mad, at least not now.

Suddenly free from responsibility, Mao Nanbei completely relaxed, even her cat ears weren’t so erect anymore, her whole little body seemed especially at ease.

“Glad I didn’t break my Little Junior Brother.” She said in heart.

Lu Xun walked up to Ji Li, glanced at her right hand, and asked, “Does it still hurt?”

“Hurts… Ow? No, no.” Ji Li met Lu Xun’s gaze and then looked down, whispering, “Just a little bit.”

Lu Xun had no magic healing pill, so he just kept looking at Mao Nanbei.

“I know, I know!” Mao Nanbei took out a pitch-black elixir from the storage ring and threw it directly to Ji Li.

Ji Li took it and a warmth started to flow through her body, her right hand stopped hurting immediately. “Thank you, Fourth Master Ancestor.” She said hastily.

Mao Nanbei didn’t look at her, maintaining a distance.

Although she looks like a little girl, her thoughts have relatively matured.

She was quite discontent with her slow rate of growth.

Therefore, she maintained a state of envy and jealousy towards Ji Li’s figure. At just sixteen years old she has grown like this, why is that so!

Some people get motion sickness, feel uncomfortable after a long journey in a horse carriage, she felt she got a bit of “boob sickness.”

“I really want to grow up fast…” Mao Nanbei said in her heart.

It was funny to think about. A genuine little girl longs to grow up, while many grown-up ladies insist on playing the part of a young girl, this world is truly magical.

The back mountain was a forbidden area for the disciples of the Demon Sect, a place where they could not set foot on ordinary days. Since Ji Li had accomplished her mission, she couldn’t stay for long and it was time to say goodbye.

Lu Xun didn’t insist on her staying, fearing that if he did, Ji Li might just stick around.

It’s late, is she staying for the night?

This mischievous sister’s sly heart had never ceased. From start to end, she

was single-minded, simply lusting after Lu Xun’s body!

He couldn’t afford to provoke her.

As Ji Li was a guinea pig brought over by Mao Nanbei, naturally, she was also responsible for sending her back.

Before Ji Li left, Lu Xun said, “Tomorrow is Mid-Autumn Festival, come over and have dinner together.”

Ji Li was stunned, her body slightly stiffened.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is a day for family reunion, and the Demon Sect supports disciples returning to their families during holidays. In these few days, the Demon Sect has been a bit quiet, with many disciples having gone home.

Except both of Ji Li’s parents were already dead, her entire family has passed away.

A person has a place to go while their parents still live. Once the parents are gone, all that remains is the path to the grave.

She no longer has a home, even if she descends the mountain, she is returning to her hometown, not going home.

Lu Xun thought of this point, which is why he invited her over for dinner the next day.

She may not be used to being alone during the Mid-Autumn Festival, which she was accustomed to celebrating in liveliness.

Ji Li’s right hand, which was holding the Wedding Sword, tightened a bit. Then she relaxed again.

She didn’t look at Lu Xun, and with her head down, softly responded.

And then, she disappeared with Mao Nanbei into the afterglow of the sunset.

The sun set, Lu Xun entered the kitchen, cooking noodles as usual.

This time it was beef noodles, the aroma was heavenly.

The aroma could compete with instant noodles, which showed how delicious it was!

Even though the Mid-Autumn Festival is tomorrow, the gentleman seems to have no intention of going back to the Sect.

Lu Xun has been on the back mountain for a while now, but he still hasn’t seen his Master.

He was very curious about what the legendary gentleman looked like and what kind of person he was.

“With my silver tongue and dark heart, he should really like me, his disciple!” Lu Xun was confident about this.

After eating noodles with the two Senior Sisters, Lu Xun returned to the Small Study and locked himself in his room.

First, as usual, he browsed the gaming sites for a while, enjoyed the entertaining posts by the internet trolls, and then he started to check his own status board.

There were only a little over hundred Experience Points left, nothing much to see, he glanced at it and skipped past.

Instead, the “Reputation Value” filled him with enthusiasm, it had already broken past 3000 and was steadily marching towards the task target of 5000 points.

As for the 1 freely distributable “Special Attribute Points,” he was hesitant about it.

According to his current development route, it should be added to

[Swordsmanship Aptitude], but after giving it a thought, he decided not to add it for now.

His “Sword Cultivating Technique” had suddenly deviated from the normal path, giving him a strong sense of insecurity. If this path didn’t work out, he could still add the special attribute points to other areas.

Like [Stick Aptitude], [Gun Aptitude], these were all powerful! One look and people can’t help but have their mouths gaping and legs trembling, they were all decent choices.

Most importantly, after initially setting the direction, he should not change it. He should stick to it to the extreme. If he randomly allocates points, he would end up ruining his character!

“I’ll watch it for a few more days.” Lu Xun said quietly, praising himself for being patient.

After closing the status board, Lu Xun sat on the bed with his legs crossed and started cultivating the “Qi Consumption Technique.”

He ran a Grand Circulation, experiencing both pain and pleasure through his body. He then gained 20 experience points, mainly to enjoy the process.

After finishing these things, he was ready to sleep, to face the nightly training by his second Senior sister.

Within ten minutes of closing his eyes, the Sword Intent came into play.

Just like every single time before, Lu Xun felt like he was dreaming. After being “killed” by the sword intent, he couldn’t remember anything from the dream.

However, compared to previous experience, what used to be filled with dense fog now seemed just slightly misty. The fog seems to have cleared away a bit.

It seems that after practising the “Sword Cultivating Technique,” he has made great progress, and it’s very obvious.

Maybe when he can truly “see clearly” this Sword Intent, he will have passed the test.

By the bright moonlight, the fireflies outside the Small Study are leisurely fluttering around. Inside the house, Lu Xun kept waking up and falling asleep, over and over again.

Only, the frequency was getting lower and lower, he seemed to be getting stronger, and lasting longer.

The first time is fast, the second time is slower, which is quite normal.

By the time the sun rose, Lu Xun was sitting by the bed, panting heavily, looking extremely tired, it was a sight to behold.

But he was only mentally exhausted, his body was still healthy. Mornings are usually a time of “High tide with evening rain arrives urgently, ferry crossing with no people, boat crossing itself.”

At this moment, there was a smile on Lu Xun’s face.

Because this night….

—He was only “killed” nine times!
