Chapter 143
The martial arts world is a madhouse of grudges, but a sword fight with no grudges, no grudges, is exhilarating and relaxing in its own right.
There was no need for emotional bending,
no need to care about the emotional lines of happiness and sadness.
So there was no need for the sword to contain anger, and there was no need for the sword to be drawn out of sadness.
There was no need for any other reason for the sword to meet the sword. It was just you and me, me and you, here and now, to settle the score.
I smiled inwardly at the victorious battle. I had thought that there could be no afterglow after I had unsheathed my sword, but for once, I felt that it was possible.
His thoughts were not much different from mine, and he had no limits to his sword thrusts, and the act of thrusting seemed to be pleasing to him as well.
Kwagagagagagagang!
With a flash of light, a bolt of thunder struck the lapis lazuli. In the next instant, the bluestone floor is crushed, and even though I thought I was changing the terrain, my body was thrown backwards as my body shook. An intangible energy had hit me.
It took me a few steps to regain my footing, using the Heavenly Wind Divine Technique to center myself, before I was able to get back on my feet.
Tsk tsk.
The intangible energy flying towards me tried to push me away like a palm, but I swung my sword without delay.
With a square, cutting sound, the intangible stem was sliced apart, sending the emperor sword’s energy flying and scraping across the blue granite floor.
