Chapter 227

Sword Peak was itself the highest and most perilous mountain of Dao Sword Sect, just like a sword edge. And the place where the Sword Dao Exchange Conference was held was at the very top of Sword Peak.N0v3lTr0ve served as the original host for this chapter's release on N0v3l--B1n.

That was truly "able to pluck stars with one's hands" and "shocking to even celestial beings".

So when Li Shiyin flew over on her sword from the distant sky, she was like a celestial sword immortal descending to the mortal world, and also like a dazzling shooting star falling down.

She landed at the Sword Inquiring Summit. Although she hadn't said or done anything yet, the gazes of the entire Sword Dao Exchange Conference had already gathered on her.

Such was the peerless charm of being both one of the Five Great Beauties and the Top Ten Geniuses.

Li Shiyin landed on the eaves of a pavilion, holding the Qingxing Sword. The night sky was full of stars at that time, and a gentle night breeze was blowing. Her snow-white dress was brighter than snow, and her jet-black long hair swayed in the wind; with her sword laid across her lap, she knitted her brows, and her composure was seventy to eighty percent cold, and ninety percent peerless beauty toppling cities and kingdoms.

Her eyes themselves contained sword intent. With just a glance at this exchange conference, some people felt their hearts being pierced by the sword's edge, and collapsed clutching their chests regardless of gender.

"So beautiful..." were the gasps of admiration from male cultivators.

"So handsome..." were the moans from female cultivators.

"That's the recently famous Li Shiyin right?" Lu Junxing asked Liu Baixuan.

"Yes."

"She really is quite pretty."

"Being ranked as a beauty by Dong Zhongyuan, how could she not be pretty?" Liu Baixuan said lightly with a smile.

Lu Junxing seemed to produce a jug of wine out of nowhere and started drinking it there.

"How come I haven't heard of anyone pursuing her?" he asked. "Even Liu Piaoxu has been almost swept up."

Liu Baixuan looked at Lu Junxing. "You asking this, are you interested?"

"I only love fine wine and the sword..." Lu Junxing gave a roguish smile, but his tone suddenly shifted. "And peerless beauties."

"See you again!" He left these words and disappeared from Liu Baixuan's side.

Liu Baixuan turned his head but could not see him, so he looked up into the distance, and soon found his figure among the roof tiles.

"That was fast!" He shook his head.

Li Shiyin also did not shy away, returning the fist cup gesture.

"What a great girl!" Lu Junxing silently sighed again.

At this time Liu Baixuan finally arrived at their side. He introduced himself to Li Shiyin with a bow, and then extended an invitation: "I have prepared a jug of fine wine over there, would the two of you be willing to honor us with your presence?"

Since she had accepted the invitation to come here, it was all for the sake of making friends and discussing swords. With such an invitation, how could she decline? Besides, Li Shiyin was not the sort to be pretentious or coy, her heart was open and even more masculine than most men.

So she went along with Liu Baixuan, arriving at the very edge of the cliff. There was a small pavilion there, and inside the pavilion was a stone table, set with fine dishes, and with two people sitting at the tableside.

One was a man and the other a woman.

The woman had an enchanting and charming appearance, willow leaf brows, peach flower eyes, a foxy face, and wore light pink clothing as she sat primly to the side. With such a countenance to enrapture people's hearts, who else could it be but Tian Wenjin?

The man had a proper and serious face, looking rather aged, as if already past forty.

Liu Baixuan introduced them to Li Shiyin. The man was a disciple of Sword Peak named Qi Yuan, who cultivated the Flying Sword Art, and was ranked number eight among the Top Ten Geniuses of the Dao Sword Sect.

"Senior brother Qi!"

"Junior sister Li."

Li Shiyin and Qi Yuan greeted each other, before she hurried to sit beside Tian Wenjin.

"Wenjin, you're here too? Why didn't you ask me to come along?" she whispered to Tian Wenjin.

Tian Wenjin whispered back, "I didn't know I'd receive an invitation either."

She glanced around the pavilion. There were five people total, of which four were on the Top Ten Geniuses list. She was slightly more knowledgeable than Li Shiyin, and knew that Lu Junxing was ranked first on the Top Ten Geniuses, Liu Baixuan was second, Qi Yuan was eighth, Li Shiyin was tenth... Of the Top Ten Geniuses proficient with the sword, apart from Huang Feiyu, the rest were all here.

"Oh my! Another beautiful junior sister!" Lu Junxing suddenly noticed Tian Wenjin and could not help but exclaim in admiration. Moreover, he saw the sword intent on Tian Wenjin, and was even more astonished. "You've comprehended sword intent too!!"

"He can tell Wenjin has comprehended sword intent?" Li Shiyin looked at Lu Junxing, a guess forming in her mind. "Could this guy have not only comprehended sword intent, but sword qi as well?"

Thinking this, she felt it made sense. Otherwise Lu Junxing would not give her such great pressure.

"Senior brother has also comprehended sword intent?" she asked Lu Junxing.

Lu Junxing did not hide or conceal it either. Raising his brows with a smile, he sat down on the stone stool and said proudly, "Of course!"
