I became a villain master, but I conquered the heroine

After a long while, Yuanchu came back to his senses and found his little disciple standing behind him. He turned around and asked with concern, "How do you feel now?"

Gu Xi didn't dare to look him in the eye, and looked away and said, "My disciple is fine. I feel like my meridians have been cleansed again. My body has become stronger and lighter."

"That's good."

Hearing Gu Xi say this, Yuan Chu breathed a sigh of relief, put his heart back in his stomach, and smiled at Gu Xi.

"Master, what were you thinking about just now?" Gu Xi took a step closer to Yuan Chu, with undisguised inquiry in his eyes.

Looking at the innocent look in his disciple's eyes, Yuan Chu was startled, then he turned his gaze away without leaving a trace, "Nothing."

After a pause, he continued, "I just thought that now that you have established your foundation, you should also have a spiritual sword of your own."

Yuanchu was actually thinking about the task progress reminder that had just popped up in the system, and the next plot reminder: the heroine Gu Xi was participating in the sect competition.

Thinking that it has been nearly two months since I came to this strange world, I suddenly felt emotional.

"Master will take you to the sword tomb tomorrow and choose a suitable spiritual sword for you."

Gu Xi bit her lower lip and answered obediently, "I will follow Master's arrangements."

But Gu Xi felt that things were not that simple. There was clearly a look of sadness in the master's eyes just now.

But if I just asked like this, I would definitely not get any answer. I felt depressed. What on earth was my master hiding? As the only person by her side, I had no idea.

The second day, Kunlun Mountain Sword Tomb

According to Yuanchu's understanding, the swords in the sword tomb originally had owners, but because the original sword owner died or something unexpected happened, the spiritual sword returned to the sword tomb, waiting for the arrival of the next sword owner.

Under the vast mountains, the fog was lingering, and everything was white, with only one teleportation array flashing with golden light.

The sword tomb is located in the barrier. The sword seeker must go to the barrier alone through the teleportation array to find the spiritual sword that is destined to be with him.

Elder Ji, who was guarding the sword tomb, warned carefully: "Be careful after you go in. Some swords have existed for thousands of years. Some swords have their own consciousness and are full of evil spirits. You need to identify and choose for yourself when taking the sword." After saying that, he prepared to cast a spell to start the teleportation.

Before being teleported, Gu Xi turned his head and looked in the direction of his master from afar, then turned around and stepped into the formation. His small figure gradually disappeared from everyone's sight.

"It's only been a short month since you came up the mountain, but you've already established your foundation. Your disciple will surely have a bright future on the path to immortality," Elder Yue, who was guarding the sword tomb, praised with a smile.

Yuan Chu smiled back, "Elder Yue, you are too kind. She is just using the time that others spend eating, drinking and having fun to practice."

Although Gu Xi has her own talent for cultivation, she is well aware of how hard she works in cultivation.

Sometimes I would wake up and feel thirsty so I would go get some water, only to find that the light in my little apprentice's room was still on.

She can recite the mental skills that I taught her every day and use them skillfully at any time. I guess she has put a lot of effort into them.

She felt both relieved and a little distressed, but Gu Xi was born extraordinary, and she herself was not willing to be ordinary.

"This child has a calm temperament. I am curious about what kind of sword she will take out."

After entering the realm, there was still thick fog in front of him, the sound of swords surrounded his ears, and the surroundings were filled with a murderous atmosphere. Gu Xi continued to walk forward along the road in front of him.

She was shocked by the scene before her. A sharp sword stood upright in the sky, seeming to divide the two worlds. The sword emitted golden light all over.

Gu Xi came back to his senses from the shock. It seemed that this was a sword tomb. There were countless swords standing under the sharp sword, and sword lights were everywhere.

Gu Xi looked at so many swords and felt a little troubled. How could he quickly find a sword that was suitable for his own practice?

The master only told her to comprehend it carefully and did not say anything else, but she changed her mind and thought that if she had to rely on the master for everything, it would make her seem incompetent.

Yuanchu herself had never been to the sword tomb to retrieve the sword, so she didn't know the situation inside the sword tomb. She had obtained her sword before she came here, so she didn't have this worry.

Gu Xi kept walking forward but couldn't find a sword that suited her. Just as she was hesitating, she suddenly heard a "buzzing" sound behind her.

She turned her head and was stunned. A broken sword?

The sword is a good one, with a slender and thin blade like a cicada's wing, reflecting a sharp and cold light, and the texture carved on the hilt is complex and regular.

The words "Ming Jue" were engraved under the hilt. The only flaw was that it was a broken sword, broken at one-third of the way along the blade. Gu Xi immediately felt regretful.

Seeing that the sword was following her, Gu Xi frowned, stopped, and tried to communicate with the broken sword, although she didn't know whether the sword could understand her.

"Don't follow me. Although you are a good sword, you are a broken sword. I will not choose you."

The sword seemed to understand, and it swayed a few times in front of Gu Xi, then rolled a few times on the ground. Gu Xi found it a little funny. Why did the sword do this? But she would definitely not choose a broken sword.

Gu Xi ignored it and walked forward on his own. The broken sword became unhappy instantly when he saw Gu Xi ignoring it.

It flew in front of Gu Xi and blocked her way. When Gu Xi went left, it went left; when Gu Xi went right, it went right.

Gu Xi sighed, "What do you want?" The sword made a "buzzing" sound and refused to move.

He flew to Gu Xi's hand, and seeing that Gu Xi didn't take it, he suddenly crashed into her arms with considerable force and a wave of sword energy. Gu Xi felt pain and took a step back.

After struggling with the sword for a long time, Gu Xi felt a little tired. She thought there was no need to go on. It seemed that she was being blackmailed by the sword today.

He just hoped that his master would not despise him for taking a broken sword back. He looked at the broken sword with disdain. The sword seemed to sense something and rubbed against Gu Xi in a flattering manner.

Not to mention her master, she herself felt a little disgusted, but she could only helplessly take the sword and leave the sword tomb.

In an instant, Gu Xi's figure appeared outside the formation. Gu Xi took a breath and slowly walked towards his master and the mountain-guarding elder, bowing and saying, "Master, Elder Yue".

Elder Yue smiled and asked gently, "How is it?"

Although Yuanchu did not show curiosity on her face, she was actually very curious about what kind of sword her little disciple would bring back.

After all, in the original book, Gu Xi did not carry a sword when she was in Kunlun Sect, and it was not introduced in the book until she became the Demon Lord in the end.

Gu Xi looked at the two people staring at him and suddenly felt embarrassed. He calmed himself down, then summoned the Mingjue Sword with one hand and released it in front of the two people.

"Master, Elder Yue, this is the spiritual sword 'Ming Jue' that I obtained."

"Oh? This sword is called 'Ming Jue'. The sword body is as straight as a string, and the whole body is as crystal clear as frost. It is quite spiritual. It is indeed a good sword. But why is it a broken sword?" Elder Yue looked a little regretful and asked in confusion.

"When I took the sword, it was already broken. I saw that I had a great affinity with it, so I chose it."

Gu Xi thought it would be better not to tell the truth. After all, she couldn't say that the sword was her fault.

He then quietly observed his master's expression, but could not see any disturbance, as if he did not care what sword she finally chose.

Yuanchu was a little surprised that Gu Xi actually chose a broken sword. This was something she had never expected, but then she thought it was better to forget it.

Since it was Gu Xi's own choice, as a master I should support her. Perhaps there is some kind of bond between the two.

Yue Li smiled and said, "So that's how it is. Master Yuan Feng, the disciple you accepted is quite interesting."

"Master?"

Seeing that she hadn't spoken, Gu Xi was a little worried. Was her master angry? She had specially sent her here to choose a sword, but she chose a broken sword. Her master must be very disappointed in her. She suddenly felt a little depressed.

"Ok?"

Yuan Chu came back to his senses and realized that his disciple was asking for his opinion.

Thinking of this, "Since you have already chosen it, you should treat it well from now on. If there is a black iron ice crystal that matches it in the future, go to the weapon hall to recast the sword body for it."

After hearing Yuan Chu's words, Gu Xi realized that her master did not despise her and had always been thinking about her. Her mood was like a roller coaster and her heart started beating vigorously again.

"Yes, thank you Master."
