In a matter of seconds, Tang Yun delivered seven swings of her sword in rapid succession.
The power of her seemingly unending attacks engulfed the area.
It was as if Mount Yunding had turned into a glowing sea in the blink of an eye, for the shine of the sword illuminated everywhere.
Sword energy could be found in every spot of the land.
“My god... Is this really something a human is capable of?”
Jiang Yulang and the others were frightened out of their wits.
These people were the ones who thought that they had reached the peak of the world with the talents they had. They thought they had seen through the world from knowledge obtained from books.
It was at that moment they realized their decades of studying only allowed them to learn the tip of the iceberg of the world.
If nothing else, the sword energy before Jiang Yulang and his sister was challenging their worldviews.
Meanwhile, Ye Fan, who was in the middle of the sword energy, still had a look of nonchalance on his face.
Sword of Yunyang was in his hand, and it was as if the weapon was a sleeping dragon.
Once its master made the order, the dragon would wake to soar into the sky.
However, Ye Fan was not in a rush to make his move.
He quietly watched as Tang Yun twirled her sword and summon a hurricane of sword energy.
When he turned his focus back to Tang Yun's Cloud and Mist Sword Technique again, a wave of complicated feelings washed over Ye Fan.
For a moment, he thought he was back at the old house, practicing his swordsmanship with Tang Yun.
Back then, she was still his, and all was good.
He could even remember the warmth of the sunlight and the scent of the flowers of that summer.
It was still the same moon that shone upon them, but everything had changed.
Despite the melancholy in his heart, Ye Fan felt a tinge of relief as well.
He was glad that the woman he had personally trained was a good swordswoman.
At the very least, she did not let him down as she had mastered the first seven strikes of Cloud and Mist Sword Technique.
Even Ye Fan himself could not find any flaws in her moves.
She had forgotten about him, but she had become stronger.
As the saying went, a heart without a man was a heart that could wield a sword better.
On the first page of the swordsmanship guide was: The very first thing you must do is to cut ties with the person you love.
Perhaps that was the case for Tang Yun.
She had chosen swordsmanship over Ye Fan.
The complex feelings continued to swirl within Ye Fan, and the sorrow was starting to overwhelm his heart.
He felt dejected like a lost soul.
However, what the people did not notice was how sword intent was starting to accumulate as Ye Fan's emotions turned intense.
However, the sword intent was vastly different from the sword intent of other swordsmen.
It was soft, and it was an unending yearning for someone.
Moreover, the sword intent seemed to have gained a physical form after its manifestation.
Even Sword Saint and the others who were not involved in the battle were affected by it.
At that very moment, the people felt that the one standing in front of them was no longer Chu Tianfan, whose terrifying reputation preceded him. Instead, they were looking at a softhearted swordsman whose heart was filled with nothing but love.
Thus, women were charmed, and men's hearts ached as they watched on.
After a moment of being in a daze, Sword Saint snapped back to his senses and found himself covered in a layer of cold sweat.
“Did... Did this guy's sword intent just affect my emotion?”
Sword Saint was astounded.
It was something beyond his knowledge on swordsmanship.
He had no idea how much someone had to comprehend swordsmanship to be able to transform their emotions into sword intent and utilize it as a weapon.
Ye Fan was instilling feelings into the sword.
He was making his sword techniques almost alive.
“No, that's not right. Swords should not be wielded this way. Emotions have no place in swordsmen's world. A true swordsman should only have nothing but swordsmanship in his mind. Only by doing that will he be able to train himself to be the finest swordsman. Similarly, kings must not be swayed by emotions. The strongest attack in the way of swordsmanship has to be the sword of those with iron hearts. Chu Tianfan is messing around! If he uses this move, he's bound to die!” Sword Saint said with utmost confidence.
