In the end, Xu Han agreed to Zhong Changhen and chose to stay in the Exquisite Pavilion.

He did not completely believe Zhong Changhen's words, but with Xu Han's temperament, it would be even more difficult to accomplish this.

However, Xu Han suddenly understood a truth. Perhaps from the moment he was planted with the Great Evolution Sword Seed by the Vastsea Current, he was destined to bear some destiny from the Vastsea Current or the Southern Desolate Sword Mausoleum.

The weight of this item exceeded Xu Han's expectations, and it was far from something he could escape if he wanted to.

Xu Han could not accept it calmly, but he did not resist it too much.

He has such a temper that his debts must be repaid. Without Vastsea Flow, he would not have survived until now. Even if he had survived until now, he was only a cripple with one arm broken.

If you receive a gift, you must bear its weight.

Xu Han was prepared. Rather than wandering in a direction that he could not find, he might as well stay calm and watch the changes.

Zhong Changhen was also a straightforward person. With Xu Han's agreement, the Sword Dao Grandmaster immediately smiled and asked Xu Han about his views and understanding of the cultivation of the Sword Dao.

Fortunately, he didn't ask, and his face immediately turned bitter.

Who would have thought that this expert disciple of the Vast Ocean Stream would have no knowledge of the Sword Dao? Even those inner sect disciples who randomly picked two to cultivate the Sword Dao were more than one notch above Xu Han in this aspect.

Fortunately, after Xu Han used the most basic sword moves in front of him, the Sword Dao Grandmaster immediately smiled.

"Diligence makes up for clumsiness. It's quite mysterious."

Xuanji was naturally referring to Chen Xuanji. This senior apprentice-brother of Chongju Peak's was incomparable to the current scenery when he first entered the sect. His talent was mediocre, and he had formed the lowest-grade yellow pills and cultivated the most basic swordsmanship. Unexpectedly, Zhong Changhen valued him highly. From then on, his cultivation in the Sword Dao had increased by a thousand li, and he was now one of the top elites in the younger generation.

Perhaps he saw the shadow of his beloved disciple from Xu Han's body, or perhaps he really remembered the kindness of the ocean.

After that, Zhong Changhen carefully taught Xu Hanjian.

However, the two of them didn't have the name of Master and Disciple, so it could be considered a tacit understanding. They didn't even mention it. Every day, Xu Han would go to the Zhong Manor at noon.

It had to be said that Zhong Changhen's attainments in the Sword Dao were truly admirable. In just ten days, Xu Han felt that he had improved a lot in the Sword Dao compared to before.

On this day, as before, he had finished cultivating the sword dao at Zhong Changhen's place and returned to the small porch window alone.

Chu Chouli disappeared without a trace, leaving behind only a sumptuous lunch.

Xu Han smiled faintly. He was extremely satisfied with the thick and meticulous thoughts of this strong man. He was eating the food, but he was carefully flipping through a sword scripture in his hand.

This sword art was called the Mountain Destroying Sword Technique. It was not considered profound, but it was handed over to Xu Han today after Zhong Changhen carefully selected it.

The cultivation of the Sword Dao stresses going from the shallow to the deep, especially for people like Xu Han whose talent is not outstanding. Although the Great Evolution Sword Technique was all-encompassing, from cultivation methods to sword moves against enemies, it was too profound for Xu Han to grasp, and Zhong Changhen's method of going from shallow to deep was obviously the most suitable for Xu Han.

As for this Mountain Destroying Sword Technique, it was extremely compatible with Xu Han.

He was originally a fleshly body cultivator, and his strength was shocking. He liked the method of breaking through ten sects when fighting with others, and this Mountain Destroying Sword Technique was also the same. Every move and movement of his body exerted the utmost strength. In addition to the blessing of his True Qi, if he practiced it to the extreme, the power he could display would not be underestimated.

Xu Han felt his heart itch, thinking that he should cultivate after lunch, summarize all sorts of problems, and continue to ask Zhong Changhen for advice tomorrow.

Just as this thought arose, Xu Han's extremely familiar voice rang out from outside the door.

"Brother Xu! Brother Xu!" The person outside shouted.

But needless to say, Xu Han only knew Song Yueming from the Exquisite Pavilion.

Xu Han wasn't as bored as before. After getting along with Song Yueming a few times, this Song Yueming was just a little unfamiliar with the world, but he was also sincere and cute. To interact with someone, he wanted to have a heart-to-heart exchange. In Xu Han's heart, Song Yueming was probably such a worthy person.

He put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hand and opened the courtyard door. Then, he stood Song Yueming, who was carrying the lunch box, at the door with a smile on his face.

"Oh? Brother Song, why are you so happy today? Why did you personally bring the food?" In the past, Song Yuemingduan had never done anything less than come to the house to eat. Today, carrying the lunch box surprised Xu Han a little. He glanced at Song Yuemingduan and deliberately teased him.

Song Yueming's face was thin, and his face immediately turned red.

"Brother Xu, what are you talking about? I can't compare to Brother Xu who lives with his fellow disciples. Where did you get the time to cook? Today, I bought these from the Young Hero's tavern. I thought of Brother Xu immediately."

Song Yueming tried to argue, but his confidence was lacking.

Xu Han was originally just teasing him, but he didn't have the intention to make things difficult for him. At that time, he smiled and said, "Thank you Brother Song for being so righteous."

Then he pointed at the stone table and said, "I only started eating. Since Brother Song has brought the food, then sit down and tell me what made Brother Song so happy."

Song Yueming's mind was simple. She turned around and forgot about Xu Han's joke. She sat down beside Xu Han and looked for the food to eat for a while before saying, "Brother Xu, can you tell what's different about me today?"

As he spoke, he pretended to be mysterious and straightened his body.

Xu Han was slightly stunned. He looked at Song Yueming from head to toe before realizing that the smile on his face was even more intense. He said, "Congratulations Brother Song for entering the Three Elements Realm!"

At this moment, Song Yueming's aura was flowing vigorously and endlessly, which was a characteristic that only cultivators at the Three Elements Realm possessed.

It was no wonder he was so happy. After all, every time a cultivator broke through a realm, it would be a great joyous occasion. Naturally, it was worth celebrating.

"Brother Song, you've worked hard these past few days, and you've finally rewarded me." Xu Han sighed.

Unexpectedly, this was originally a congratulatory remark, but when it landed in Song Yueming's ears, the expression on the youth's face darkened.

"It's a pity that no matter how hard I try, I'm only at the Three Elements Realm. In the end, it won't be of much use." As he said this, his tone changed from his previous excitement to a bit gloomy.

"Brother Song, why is this?" This made Xu Han somewhat puzzled. Why did this good news suddenly make Song Yueming feel dejected?

"I heard that Meng Liang defeated Yue Fuyao's son, Yue Chengpeng, a few days ago. Now that he has set foot on the road to the Exquisite Pavilion, I think he will come to ask for advice in less than half a month."

"The sect leader has gone out to investigate the disciples and deacons of the Gu Forest without any news. The disciples are all spreading the news. I'm afraid they've already been killed."

"The Great Xia Empire's pillar outside the Sword Dragon Pass, Cui Ting, is also eyeing covetously. That Mu Ji is like a cowering turtle that doesn't dare to fight."

..

Xu Han's question caused the worried youth to open the chatterbox and pour out the frustration in his heart. Hearing this, Xu Han was stunned.

He couldn't help but laugh, but he also thought that what worried Song Yueming was these irrelevant things. He hurriedly persuaded.

"Brother Song, you're worrying too much. Why should we think about those things? Aren't you asking for trouble?"

But who would have thought that Song Yueming's expression would become even uglier the moment he said those words?

"Brother Xu, what are you saying? There is a saying that the rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of everyone. If you don't think about anything, I don't think about it, and he doesn't think about it either, then wouldn't you be sitting there watching the vandals rampage? If something happens to you one day, wouldn't you be blaming yourself?"

Xu Han had already experienced Song Yueming's reasoning, so he naturally did not dare to continue arguing with him in this regard. He could only nod his head repeatedly, and his mouth kept saying that he had made a mistake.

This was enough to calm Song Yueming down, but suddenly, a loud noise came from outside the room.

It was as if a group of people were moving towards a certain place. That sound was extremely loud. It was obvious that something big had happened. As the two of them were puzzled, Chu Chouli rushed in.

"Young Master, hurry up! Long Congyun brought the elders and deacons of Zhongju Peak to Xuanhe Peak to find trouble with Ning Zhumang!"

"Let's go take a look as well!"
