He started at 18 and became the top swordsman. That was almost an impossible task.
Little Phoenix said in Feng Wu’s head, “That’s right. My master spoke highly of Chu Fengxiao.”
Feng Wu asked, “What did he say?”
Little Phoenix said, “The master called him an earnest man.”
Feng Wu gave it some thought and nodded. Only an earnest man could be so devoted and focused in everything he learned, which was how he was able to comprehend everything so thoroughly.
Little Phoenix asked, “Do you remember the Windy Sword Intent the master taught you?”
Feng Wu said, “I do. It’s just that my beautiful master never allowed me to use it, saying that it wasn’t time yet.”
Little Phoenix looked at Feng Wu and said earnestly, “The master taught Chu Fengxiao the Windy Sword Intent as well. He mastered it and became the best swordsman of his time.”
Feng Wu looked perplexed.
Little Phoenix said, “The master said that it wasn’t time yet because your moves weren’t fast enough for your sword intent. After all, you were still a child. It was natural that you couldn’t comprehend everything.”
Feng Wu said, “Really?”
Little Phoenix said, “If I’m right, this white fairy should be the sword spirit of Chu Fengxiao’s Merry Sun Sword.”
Feng Wu said, “She’s a sword spirit?” That was a surprise. She had always thought that the white fairy was a girl who had grown up with her third senior brother. It never occurred to her that she would be a sword spirit.
Little Phoenix told Feng Wu in a serious voice, “The sword spirit of your Fallen Star Sword has always been muddleheaded and isn’t intelligent enough. If the white fairy can refine the sword spirit for you, it’ll benefit you greatly.”
Feng Wu rubbed her chin. “I don’t think that’ll be very easy to achieve.”
Chu Fengxiao was all that the white fairy cared about; she probably wouldn’t care about anything else.
The white fairy glanced at Feng Wu and asked, “Hey, what are you thinking? Are you doubting me?”
She was happy to talk about Chu Fengxiao, so despite the serious look on her face, she wasn’t angry.
Feng Wu searched her memories, and soon, her eyes lit up.
“Actually, Uncle Chu didn’t just teach me how to draw, he taught me how to wield a sword as well, although only three stances.”
“What?” The white fairy’s eyes lit up. “Show me the stances now!”
That was what Feng Wu had been waiting for, so she nodded. “Sure.”
The beautiful master had created the Fallen Star Swordplay according to Feng Wu’s talent, and it was to be used together with the Fallen Star Sword. However, he fell back into his long slumber after teaching her three stances, which were all Feng Wu could demonstrate now.
The first stance: Sword of the Other World.
The second stance: Star and Moon.
The third stance: Fatal Thunder.
The white fairy stared at Feng Wu and murmured, “The swordplay only has three stances, but each stance is more powerful than the previous one, and the sword intent keeps increasing. Are there any more?’
She studied Feng Wu’s face.
Feng Wu shook her head, “No, that’s all.”
The white fairy sighed. “Chu Fengxiao is indeed as capable as he’s said to be. Although there are only three stances, they’re so well-balanced that you can’t find any weaknesses in them. What’s more important is that the sword intent can increase. These three stances are enough to enable you to kill someone several levels higher than you!”
Feng Wu nodded. That was true.
