Chapter 370: Chapter 370: Sudden Realization

"It’s the sword technique of the Fifth Gatekeeper, the Liangyi Sword Technique!"

Half-Saint Xuan Yu exclaimed again in surprise, "Who would have thought that you, little guy, have also mastered this sword technique?"

The sword technique of the Fifth Gatekeeper is a King-Level Peak Level sword technique.

Lin Yi had mastered it too?

"The sword techniques that follow reach the Venerate Level and can’t be comprehended in a short time."

Lin Yi stopped demonstrating and spoke.

In fact, he had also grasped some things about the Venerate Level sword techniques that followed, but they were not complete, so he did not plan on showing off, especially in front of the Heavenly Sword Saint Master and Half-Saint Xuan Yu.

"You really are a Sword Dao Genius."

Half-Saint Xuan Yu laughed, "Even Jian Feidao, that Sword Dao Genius, would probably have been slightly inferior in his youth compared to you."

Hearing this, Lin Yi touched his chin, thinking that the Legendary Half-Saint Jian Feidao was quite a marvel in his younger days as well...

"No wonder you specifically requested Jian Feidao as your master; you two indeed share many similarities."

The Heavenly Sword Saint Master said, "However, you still need to strive to be among the top three in the Sword Discussion Conference. By doing so, even if Jian Feidao is unwilling, I will make an exception for you."

If it weren’t for Lin Yi specifically wanting to apprentice under Jian Feidao, even he, the Holy Master, would have been moved by Lin Yi’s talent and wanted to take him as a disciple himself.

"It’s not that he’s the only option."

Lin Yi muttered to himself internally. His initial reason for wanting to apprentice under Jian Feidao was merely to hand over the Primordial Heaven Sword and fulfill his mission.

It wasn’t that he felt he absolutely had to apprentice under Jian Feidao over other Half-Saints.

Like the Heavenly Sword Saint Master, he felt, was also worth considering.

However, now that everyone in the Heavenly Sword Holy Land knew he wanted to apprentice under Jian Feidao and he had even refused Half-Saint Xuan Yu, the atmosphere had been set; backing out now was not really an option.

...

Meanwhile, in another location.

Gu Shentong and Wan Huayu had also returned to their residence.

Throughout the journey, Gu Shentong’s expression was extremely dark, clearly very dissatisfied with Wan Huayu’s enthusiastic attitude towards Lin Yi.

However, he didn’t dare to question Wan Huayu, fearing that his rashness might ruin their relationship.

"Brother Gu, are you still angry about why I was so ambiguously warm towards Xu Qing?"

Wan Huayu broke the grim atmosphere and pierced through Gu Shentong’s thoughts.

"What do you think?"

Gu Shentong nodded, "Sister, today you’ve really made me lose face."

"I really don’t understand, what does that kid Xu Qing have that surpasses me? To make you, sister, so unusually concerned about him?"

"You misunderstand me, Brother Gu."

Wan Huayu sighed, a look of grievance appearing on her face, "I thought you were the one in the Holy Land who understood Hua Yu the most. It seems I expected too much."

"What do you mean?"

Gu Shentong’s face changed instantly, "Could it be that your unusual behavior today has another motive?"

"That’s correct."

Wan Huayu nodded, "Today, I compromised my dignity by inviting Xu Qing over because I wanted to investigate his background."

"You want to investigate Xu Qing?"

Gu Shentong looked surprised, "Sister, do you suspect something is wrong with Xu Qing?"

"Just a suspicion, with no solid evidence yet."

A sharp light flickered in Wan Huayu’s beautiful eyes. "Brother Gu, I’ll tell you, I suspect Xu Qing is a Lurker from the Undying Blood Clan."

"What?"

"A Lurker from the Undying Blood Clan?!"

Gu Shentong looked incredulous, "That can’t be possible, right? If Xu Qing were a lurker from the Undying Blood Clan, he would have been exposed long ago. How could he have hidden it from the Holy Master and Half-Saint Xuan Yu?"

However, Wan Huayu shook her head and said, "How clever are the infiltrating tactics of the Undying Blood Clan?"

"If this person hid deeply enough, even the Holy Master might not be able to detect him."

"If even the Holy Master might not detect him, sister, how can you be sure to recognize Xu Qing’s true identity?"

Gu Shentong frowned.

"This Xu Qing is just too suspicious."

Wan Huayu said, "A month ago, Xu Qing was just a normal Outer Sect Saint, so how could he have undergone such a huge transformation in just a single month?"

"From a minor Outer Sect Saint, transforming all of a sudden, becoming the first Heavenly Pride in the history of the Heavenly Sword Holy Land. Don’t you find it suspicious?"

Reminded by Wan Huayu, Gu Shentong also slowly nodded, "Now that you mention it, it really is so."

"This Xu Qing, having been unremarkable in the Outer Sect for many years, how could he suddenly become so outstanding?"

"It’s very possible that Xu Qing was replaced midway, the original Xu Qing has died, and the current Xu Qing is a spy transformed by the Undying Blood Clan!"

Reminded by Wan Huayu, Gu Shentong’s face was filled with a sudden epiphany, as if everything had suddenly become clear.
