Chapter 240 Flying Sword
After saying goodbye to Davis and Zhu Zhuyun, Chen Xuan took his daughter and left Xingluo City, preparing to return to the Tiandou Empire.
He did not use Flying Thunder God to come, but called a fast carriage to take the father and daughter away from Xingluo, travel through the wilderness, and head towards Tiandou City.
The main reason was that Chen Xuan felt that the wind was too strong during the flight and was worried that Xiao Qiuer couldn't bear it, so he decided to choose something more comfortable. This was his precious daughter and he couldn't bear to let her go.
"Tiandou Empire, you really didn't let me down." Chen Xuan's eyes showed murderous intent.
We learned from Davis that they had captured alive a group of assassins who tried to assassinate Xiao Qiu'er, and after severe torture, they finally pried open their mouths.
Those people do not belong to Tiandou, but are vassal states of that force, which is equivalent to doing things for the Tiandou Empire.
Earlier, Chen Xuan thought that it was most likely done by the Spirit Hall. After all, that crazy woman Bibi Dong was capable of anything, and geniuses often died inexplicably, which was the work of the Spirit Hall.
However, the reality was that the Tiandou Empire, a self-proclaimed righteous force, was something he had not expected. He was really surprised that the one who touched his daughter was actually a Tiandou person.
Now it seems that Lian Tiandou is not safe anymore, and is even more dangerous than Xingluo.
Chen Xuan touched Xiao Qiu'er's head and said gently, "You will have to work hard next. Stay in the palace for a while. When daddy finishes his business, you can go out and play."
"Ah...Oh...Okay, I understand, Dad." Chen Qiuer pouted, looking very depressed, with frustration all over her little face.
Chen Xuan looked out the window at the blue sky. He had already made up his mind that some things needed to be put into progress.
Although the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace is safe, he cannot let his family live there forever. Whether for his daughter, his family, or himself, he should clean up some things.
"Emperor Xue Ye, you are old and sick, and it seems that you don't want to live that long." A surge of anger surged in Chen Xuan's heart.
Regardless of whether this matter was instigated by Emperor Xue Ye, it is closely related to this old guy. Without his permission, who would dare to do anything?
Chen Xuan felt that those who had lived for hundreds of years and were the supreme rulers would most likely be black-hearted and have blood on their hands, otherwise they would not be able to sit in that position.
Now, Emperor Xue Ye is seriously ill and bedridden, and the guards will only be stricter, making it impossible for ordinary people to get close.
"Burning in will definitely not work, we need some planning." Chen Xuan said to himself, the best way is to use wits instead of being a reckless man.
After all, it would be too much for him to deal with so many masters at once, and there is even a risk of failure.
The Tiandou Empire is not like the Xingluo Empire, but it has many Titled Douluo, a large number of Soul Douluo and Soul Saints, as well as millions of troops.
Even a place like Tiandou Academy has three Soul Douluos in charge, which shows that it has considerable power of soul masters.
Time passed quickly, the carriage kept moving, passing through the endless grassland, and came to a brightly lit town.
When we arrived, the sun had already set, night had fallen, and the sky was pitch black.
Chen Xuan did not choose to walk at night. He asked for a room and let Xiao Qiuer have a good rest in bed.
He climbed onto the roof, feeling the evening breeze and facing the pure moonlight, and took out an item that had been sealed for a long time from the system space.
A silver dagger and a piece of golden paper, which was covered with words, densely packed, with thousands of words.
These symbols and runes are very profound and difficult to understand. Even if an ordinary person picked up this sword manual, he would not be able to practice it because he could not understand a single word.
Even Chen Xuan needed the help and interpretation of the system to comprehend these scriptures, otherwise he would not be able to understand them.
Even so, he had only just reached the entry level at that time, and it was difficult for him to activate this flying sword. Otherwise, he would not have been forced to that point when escorting Xiao Wu back to the Xingdou Great Forest seven or eight years ago.
Now, Chen Xuan wanted to practice the flying sword technique recorded on the golden paper again. With his learning, he would be able to improve both close combat and long-range combat, and be able to surprise the enemy. By then, he would be more confident in dealing with the group of people from the Tiandou Empire.
"The more difficult something is to practice, the more it proves that it is extraordinary." Chen Xuan's eyes sparkled. The reason why he failed to practice it back then was mainly because his mental strength and soul were too weak. He was unable to control the flying sword, let alone practice those scriptures.
But now it’s different, his mental power is very strong, far above that of a Titled Douluo, so there should be no problem.
"System, you've cheated me so many times, now it's your turn to show your abilities." Chen Xuan called the dog system to help him translate the scriptures on the golden paper.
The system knew it was in the wrong, so it took practical action to interpret, translate, and rearrange the golden runes into text that ordinary people could understand.
"That's much better now." Chen Xuan was in a good mood. He could finally understand it. Otherwise, he would have no idea how long it would take to translate all the interpretations one by one. This damn system finally did something useful.
Next, he released his mental power, pulled up the silver dagger, circled it in the air, drew a special trajectory, and began to practice various magical skills.
Chen Xuan closed his eyes, entered a state of enlightenment, and began to study the middle and late parts of the scripture.
Clang!
The silver dagger trembled slightly, shaking continuously, emitting silver light, and circling around Chen Xuan, getting faster and faster, like a silver chain, very extraordinary.
The second half of the sword manual is very profound and extremely difficult, but it is also simple and unpretentious. As long as your mental strength is strong enough, you can learn it.
The so-called flying sword is actually to control objects with huge mental power to achieve the effect of controlling the flying sword, but it does not have much lethality, so the second half must be practiced. Only when the flying sword runes are practiced can it be considered a success.

Chi!
The silver dagger glowed, and suddenly lightning rose up with crackling sounds. Its speed suddenly increased dramatically, twice as fast as before.
"Huh, does it really work?" Chen Xuan was stunned. He just tried to inject lightning into it, but he didn't expect it to succeed smoothly. It was really a surprise.
Then, he tried again, this time adding wind attribute chakra. With a hum, wind blades appeared around the dagger, attached to the surface, and the lethality increased greatly.
Chen Xuan was surprised to find that when the two attributes of wind and thunder were added at the same time, there was a big progress. The flying sword gained a bonus in speed and damage. Even without the flying sword runes, the lethality would still not be low.
Chi!
A dazzling sword light flew up, and the short sword was like a rainbow. It slashed out in an instant, and a stone millstone in the yard was split into two.
Chen Xuan was surprised that he didn't feel any resistance. It was as if he was not chopping on a stone, but on a piece of tofu, which was cut open easily.
Next, he continued to practice in the yard, becoming more and more skilled in controlling objects and wielding the dagger with greater ease.
Chi!
The silver dagger danced and turned into a silver chain that shuttled back and forth in the yard, occasionally slashing at the millstone. It was extremely sharp and made no obvious sound.
When he put away the flying sword, the stone millstone had been shattered into hundreds of pieces and scattered around the yard. This was a manifestation of a strong mental power that allowed one to control the flying sword so finely.
"Can I change my thinking?" Chen Xuan whispered, realizing one thing. Since he could control objects, could he make a big sword to use for flying?
He was very bold, and he even thought of concentrating his mental power under his feet to achieve the effect of moving. Would he be able to achieve flying?
Chen Xuan thought it was feasible. As long as his mental strength was strong enough and his ability to control objects reached a high level, these would not be difficult.
However, he did not start practicing immediately. He repeated the cycle. Today's practice ended here, and there would be plenty of time later.
Afterwards, Chen Xuan paid ten gold soul coins as compensation for the damaged millstone.
There was no conversation all night, day and night were tossing and turning, and morning came quickly.
Early in the morning, Chen Xuan woke up Xiao Qiuer, got on a more spacious carriage and continued on his journey to the Tiandou Empire.
