Chapter 247: Sword Master’s Defeat

An Lin, Da Bai, and Xiao Chou were all stunned. They never would’ve imagined that this masochist Summer Bird would be conquered by Xu Xiaolan.

What face did the three of them still have…? They really wanted to bang their heads against a wall!

Summer Bird flew before Xu Xiaolan and breathed out a golden fire seed. “Close your eyes and concentrate.”

Xu Xiaolan closed her eyes as told, and the golden fire seed started to melt into her glabella.

Boom!

The vital energy of heaven and earth suddenly started to swarm about.

“Is it just me, or has Xu Xiaolan’s aura become more powerful?” An Lin asked this as he looked toward the slightly frowning female in front of him.

“I also feel that she’s becoming stronger. Could it be that one can even increase their cultivation base when receiving inheritances? Woof!” Da Bai also had a look of confusion.

At this moment, Summer Bird chuckled. “This is because she’s attained some enlightenment while receiving this inheritance. She’s taken advantage of this opportunity to purify and cleanse the flames in her body, thereby allowing her flames to become purer. To be able to resolutely seize such an opportunity… She truly is supremely talented in the way of the flame…”

Right at this moment, wisps of flames suddenly started to flitter around Xu Xiaolan. These flames were yellow with a hint of gold, and they radiated a scorching aura.

She opened her eyes and a look of excitement washed over her face. “I’ve succeeded!”

Summer Bird nodded. “The inheritance has finished and it’s time for me to leave this place as well~ I’m sure we’ll meet again someday. Next time we meet, I hope that you males can put in a bit more strength and effort. Ohoho…”

Saying this, it spread its wings. As flames curled around it, it soared into the sky and flew toward the entrance of the dragon tomb.

An Lin: “…”

Da Bai and Xiao Chou both transformed back into their mini forms. They were both extremely depressed.

If they could, they wanted to become a blade of grass.

“Okay, okay~ Let’s head to the next palace~,” Xu Xiaolan said in high spirits.

Right now, only Xu Xiaolan was still full of zest and vigor. Two extremely helpful inheritances thoroughly aroused her sense of adventure.

The third palace was called the Palace of Autumn.

An Lin and the others were feeling uneasy as they pushed open its doors. What entered their visions was a female sitting on a grass mat.

This was a pretty girl who was dressed in fiery red garb. Resting on her slender legs was an ancient sword. Right now, she was silently meditating.

Upon seeing this female, An Lin felt that she was very imposing. M-hm… she had the poise of a master!

They definitely couldn’t disturb this kind of master. Such action would amount to great disrespect. The best method was to stand silently to the side and wait for the master to greet them when she saw fit.

Xu Xiaolan was clearly of the same mind. She stood silently with An Lin and looked toward this young female with a slight sense of excitement and anticipation.

Time slowly trickled by.

An Lin felt that this trial was perhaps testing their patience. Thus, he remained silent and still.

Before they knew it, a long period of time had passed.

The body of the red-clothed female swayed lightly, and her head tilted to the side slightly. A glistening trail of drool trickled from her small mouth.

An Lin: “…”

Xu Xiaolan: “…”

“She fell asleep?” An Lin transmitted his voice to Xu Xiaolan.

“Probably,” Xu Xiaolan transmitted in reply. “She’s even drooling. Have you seen people drool when they’re meditating?”

“Then let’s wake her up,” An Lin continued.

“If we wake her up rashly, will she become furious and deprive us of the inheritance here?” Xu Xiaolan was a bit worried.

An Lin nodded. He felt that this made a lot of sense. Thus, he tossed out the mini Da Bai. “Da Bai, off you go!”

“Woof! Why does it have to be me?!”

Da Bai still hadn’t recovered from his mental wounds, and he wailed in anguish. Then, his dog face collided into the young female’s face…

Bam!

The young female fell backward from the strike.

Xu Xiaolan: “…”

An Lin’s eyes bulged. He felt that he had thrown Da Bai too hard. However, he truly didn’t do this on purpose. It was just that he didn’t expect for the mini Da Bai to be so light.

“Ow! Who’s there? Wow! Dog?!”

The red-clothed female screamed in fright after being knocked over. Then, she saw Da Bai’s adorable dog face.

She raised her head and saw An Lin and Xu Xiaolan, as well as an adorably ugly monkey. Her expression suddenly changed and a fierce aura erupted from her body. It was as if she were a sharp blade which had just been unsheathed.

“Fated persons, welcome to the Palace of Autumn. Do you guys want to receive the Winter Dragon Tomb’s sword inheritance?”

Her voice was crisp and pleasant, yet it also possessed an intimidating edge which made one shiver in apprehension.

An Lin was delighted upon hearing this. Sword inheritance?

I, Sword Immortal An Lin, am definitely going to win this inheritance!

He had already attained the Six Strikes of the War God. How difficult could it be to obtain the Palace of Autumn’s sword inheritance?

An Lin was still feeling embarrassed after seeing Xu Xiaolan receive two inheritances in a row. Now, they had finally come across a domain that he was skilled in. He definitely had to flex!

“It’s relatively easy to obtain this sword inheritance,” the young female said. “Watch me perform a sword dance once, then try to emulate my sword dance based on your comprehension of it. I’ll see if any of you have the right to receive my inheritance.”

An Lin nodded eagerly. “Okay, Autumn Female!”

“Huh? I don’t think I introduced myself. How come you know my name?” The red-clothed female’s eyes lit up slightly, and a look of curiosity emerged on her face.

Based on the sh*tty naming pattern of Spring Male and Summer Bird, only retards wouldn’t be able to guess your name!

However, he naturally wouldn’t say this out loud. Rather, he smiled mysteriously and said, “Perhaps this is fate..”

Hearing this, Autumn Female was slightly dazed. Then, she chuckled, “You’re a fairly interesting person.”

An Lin was secretly delighted. I’ve made a good impression~

Xu Xiaolan pursed her lips as fury burned in her heart. This An Lin was hitting on girls right in front of her. Very well!

Autumn Female started her sword dance.

Her red garb and slender figure also started to dance with the blade. She was beautiful and elegant, much like a butterfly fluttering through a maple forest. Yet at the same time, there was a feeling of desolation and viciousness.

An Lin was entranced. He had to admit, this sword dance was absolutely delightful!

“Phew… I’ve finished dancing. It’s your turns.”

Autumn Female was huffing slightly after completing her sword dance. Her eyes glimmered brightly as she looked toward the two fated persons before her.

Her eyes lingered over An Lin a bit more. Perhaps she looked forward to his performance more because of their exchange from before.

“Hah?”

An Lin was stupefied upon hearing this. A feeling of danger slowly rose in his heart.

He was only focused on enjoying Autumn Female’s performance just then, as he felt that her sword dance was amazing. However, it appeared as if he didn’t grasp anything at all…

Was there truly nothing to comprehend, or did he just fail to comprehend anything?

How about I just replicate her movements and pretend that I’m performing radio gymnastics?

At this moment, Xu Xiaolan had already started her sword dance. Da Bai and Xiao Chou gave up right off the bat.

An Lin was unwilling to admit defeat, and he also started brandishing his Evil-Slaying Sword.

Seeing Xu Xiaolan’s sword dance, Autumn Female nodded slightly. Then, she looked toward An Lin, and she grimaced. What the hell was he doing?

They finished their sword dances.

Beads of sweat had formed on Xu Xiaolan’s forehead.

As for An Lin, it was as if he had completed a radio gymnastic exercise and shown off his youth and vigor. Apart from that, he didn’t feel anything at all.

Autumn Female walked toward An Lin. This made An Lin’s heartbeat quicken in excitement.

Am I finally going to be chosen? Did she see my astonishing talent in the way of the sword through my sword dancing posture?

“Perhaps this is the absence of fate… It’s alright. Even though your aptitude in the way of the sword is appalling, there are tens of thousands of Dao which exist in the world. There will always be one that suits you…” Autumn Female consoled An Lin and patted his shoulder in encouragement.

An Lin was paralyzed with shock and his mouth gaped open slightly.

Autumn Female walked toward Xu Xiaolan and a beaming smile spread across her face. “Fated person, are you willing to accept the Winter Dragon Tomb’s sword inheritance?”

Xu Xiaolan nodded her head dazedly.

She had witnessed An Lin’s superb swordsmanship before. To her surprise though, Autumn Female chose her. Was An Lin purposefully conceding this to her?

An Lin’s sword dance just then was indeed disgusting and unsightly. Perhaps he really is doing this on purpose…

Thinking of this, Xu Xiaolan looked at An Lin gratefully and thanked him in her mind.
