Naked Sword Art

Chapter 91 - Lei XinYi's Resolve

In the morning.

Xiao Fang woke up next to Chun Hua and Xiao Hei, but they were both sound asleep. He was feeling especially happy to see Chun Hua again, but when he saw Xiao Hei, his eye twitched.

She was stretching her arms and legs as if the whole bed belonged to her. Seeing her like this made him want to push her off the bed.

He eventually left the room to check on his other girls, but besides finding Li Lian cultivating on her bed and Yu An sitting on the porch, he couldn’t find Xun Wei anywhere.

Speaking to Yu An after sitting down next to her, he learned that Xun Wei had already left.

"Xiao Fang, will you be leaving soon?"

"Mn, it’s about time I get back."

"I expected as much. In that case, take this with you," she said as she handed him a map.

’A map?’ He thought, but upon examining it he quickly realized what it was a map of.

"It’s a map of the Dual Cultivation sect before it was destroyed," she explained.

"Yu An... I visited the dual cultivation sect before I came back here, it didn’t look anything like the way you described it."

Although he somewhat feared how his father would react to hearing that he got someone pregnant, the real reason why Xiao Fang took the long route back home was because he wanted to see the Dual Cultivation sect.

Yu An sighed.

"It’s a shame, it used to be such a beautiful place. Anyways, you should still keep this map. Even if they took all the sect’s treasures, there is one thing that will always remain."

Listening to her words, Xiao Fang became a bit excited.

"Once you become stronger, you must visit the Ancestral cemetery, here," she pointed at a spot on the map.

"There, you will meet the spirit of our ancestors. Should they have a favorable impression of you, you will certainly be rewarded," she explained briefly.

He asked her a few questions about it then thanked her before storing it in his spatial ring.

"Is it really alright to leave Chun Hua here with you."

"Of course. You should have more faith in me, Xiao Fang. I might only be in the Profound realm, but you’d be surprised how many tricks I have up my sleeve. I was a disciple of the Black Paradise sect after all."

Hearing those words, Xiao Fang felt a bit relieved.

In the next few minutes that passed, Xiao Fang and Yu An talked and laughed as they spoke about their past. Although she was being held prisoner in this lonely place, they still had plenty of memories together.

Later that morning, Xiao Hei came rushing out of the house when she heard Xiao Fang’s voice.

"Fang!" She cried out as she jumped into his arms.

"Xiao Hei, you got even bigger. I was only gone for a little over a week and you already grew big enough for me to ride you."

"That’s because you already broke through to the Profound realm!"

Hearing her words, Yu An became shocked. Xiao Fang wasn’t even 20 years old, but he was already in the Profound realm. Who could believe such a thing.

However, before she could ask him herself, she watched as Xiao Fang jumped on Xiao Hei’s back and rode her like a mount. The speed she was moving at was only possible for a Profound Body expert. If that wasn’t enough, when Xiao Fang fell off her back he started chasing her. He was also running at the speed only a Profound Body realm cultivator could run at.

Yu An was speechless.

’Xiao Fang is the remnant of the Dual Cultivation sect, all our hopes rests with him, but still he can be so carefree,’ Yu An smiled helplessly as she watched Xiao Fang try to jump back on to Xiao Hei’s back.

Suddenly, Xiao Fang stopped chasing Xiao Hei and walked back up the porch as Chun Hua walked out of the front door.

"Chun Hua, you’re awake."

"It’s been awhile," she replied with a light smile.

"Xiao Hei, go tell Li Lian we’re leaving."

"You’re leaving already?" Chun Hua asked.

"Mn, it’s time to go back. Our mission time is about to run out."

After saying those words, he took a knee then put his hands on her stomach.

"I hope you’re listening, little one. Daddy will be gone for a while, so I’ll need you to take care of mommy till I return. Grow up strong, eat lots, and remember how much your father loves you."

He then placed his head against it for a few moments then got up to give Chun Hua a kiss.

"Take care, Xiao Fang."

"Mn, I will."

Xiao Fang took a step back then formally kowtowed to the two of them like a good husband/son would.

When he got back up, Li Lian and Xiao Hei came out of the house. They finally said their final farewells then left.

.

.

.

Just outside of the 2 kilometre radius spirit array surrounding Yu An’s house, Lei Xinyi stood patiently, waiting for Xiao Fang to come out so that she could speak to him.

Seeing Lei Xinyi waiting for him, he told Li Lian and Xiao Hei to wait for him at the front of the sect. He then approached Lei Xinyi after they left.

.

.

.

"Xinyi, did you come to see me go?"

"Actually, I came to tell you that Xun Wei went back to the Black Paradise sect. Where are you going?" Lei Xinyi asked.

"It’s time for me to go back to the Black Paradise sect as well."

"Xiao Fang... why do you have to leave so soon? Can’t you stay here in the Divine Sword sect? This is where you belong."

Xiao Fang didn’t immediately reply. Instead he nostalgically touched his wooden walking stick before slightly opening it up to reveal the sharp blade hidden within.

Although his grandmother had recently given him a much better sword, he still carried this one around because his good friend, Lei Xinyi, was the one that gifted it to him.

After a few moments, he unexpectedly gave it back to her.

"Xiao Fang..."

"I appreciate the gift, but I won’t be needing it once I return to the Black Paradise sect."

She refused to take it back.

"You... Those girls... they really changed you. The old Xiao Fang would never do something like this."

"That’s because the old Xiao Fang never loved anyone."

"No one... not even me?"

Her voice and expression was calm so it didn’t resemble a girl that was grieving. If it wasn’t for the single teardrop that streaked down her cheek, he wouldn’t have known how she felt.

Xiao Fang paused. Who was Lei Xinyi to him?

She was his first friend, first rival, and first sexual partner. For a time, there were even a few rumors going around saying that they were young lovers, and judging from how much time they spent together, that rumor wasn’t far from the truth.

However, the Divine Sword sect strictly prohibited disciples from marrying the patriarch’s sons or daughters. This was to deter Elders from trying to marry off their sons or daughters for a higher position in the sect.

For that reason alone, Xiao Fang could never love anybody, he could only have sex with them. This made him the sort of playboy that he is today.

"Lei Xinyi, you know how I feel about you, but you also know it can’t happen."

"I know, I just... I can’t help feeling the way I do."

She hugged him. Resting her head on his bosom.

"Don’t go. Stay here with me. I promise, I’ll always be good to you."

Xiao Fang sighed.

He wasn’t fond of breaking hearts, so he always tried to avoid it.

"Do you really want to be with me?" He asked.

"Mn, I do. I really do," she looked at him with watery eyes.

"Then cultivate, train as hard as you can. If we are fated to be together, then we will meet again under different circumstances."

After saying those words he lightly pushed her off of him.

She became even more tearful.

Xiao Fang didn’t leave. Instead, he stood still waiting for her to leave first.

After taking a few steps in the opposite direction, she eventually turned back and ran up to him.

She then stood up on her tippy toes and gave him a kiss. Feeling that, Xiao Fang eventually put his hands on her waist. They both experienced the same nostalgic memories playing out from that one kiss. They used to always kiss each other in the past, but this time felt different. It was possible that they’d never see each other again.

When she finally pulled away, she began to smile. Not only that, she also had a strong sense of determination burning in her eyes. Even her voice sounded confident when she spoke:

"We’ll definitely meet again."

In the next moment, her body shifted and then disappeared.

Xiao Fang lightly smiled. He knew her character well, probably even more than her own parents. When she put her mind to something she would definitely achieve it.

"Mn, perhaps we really will."

Inside the Patriarch’s Hall.

Standing just outside of her master’s door, Lei Xinyi announced her name then requested to enter.

Unexpectedly, the door opened and Wu Yue came out.

"Master," she said as she clasped her fist and bowed her head.

Wu Yue immediately recognized the fiery look in Lei Xinyi’s eyes.

Since Wu Yue didn’t answer her, Lei Xinyi quickly stated her reason for coming.

"Master, this disciple has been lacking, but I’m ready to put in the extra work to meet your expectations. Please, train me to the fullest."

Wu Yue knew the reason she was behaving this way had everything to do with Xiao Fang leaving the sect.

This was exactly the reason why she chose Lei Xinyi to be her disciple in the first place. She knew she would definitely not want to leave Xiao Fang’s side and would work extremely hard to one day be with him again.

With a meaningful smirk, Wu Yue spoke.

"Very well, from today on your true training begins."
