Chapter 11
In the Sunset Peak, Su Yan’er had just finished teaching Su Xing the twelve sword techniques. She went to take a shower and changed into a fresh set of clothes.
At this moment, Su Yan’er looked around, but she could not find Su Xing.
“Senior Brother, where did you go? That’s strange.”
Su Yan’er muttered to herself.
However, when Su Yan’er recalled how she had taught Su Xing how to practice swordsmanship in the afternoon, Su Yan’er could not help but feel angry.
Her Senior Brother’s talent was really too ordinary. Even though she had personally taught him, and it was only one of the most basic twelve sword techniques, Su Xing still had not made any progress.
There was even a faint feeling that he was regressing.

However, Su Yan’er felt that there was not much to learn about one of the most basic twelve sword techniques.
After all, every move of these twelve sword techniques was written on a scroll. If one did not know how to use it, they would directly look at the nine stars. There was not anything special about it.
As long as there was no problem with one’s brain, ordinary cultivators would be able to master the twelve sword techniques.

Su Xing’s talent was really too poor. Even if Su Yan’er taught him some profound things, Su Xing would not be able to understand it at all.
Although Su Yan’er was the reincarnated empress, she still had a headache.
What should she do with her Senior Brother?
‘Why don’t he increase her strength first and then practice the sword moves?’
‘If he wanted to increase his strength, he had to change his physique first.’
Su Yan’er thought so in her heart.
In the distance, Su Xing walked out of the forest with a hoe in his hand.
“Junior Sister Yan’er, you’ve finished your bath? Wait for me for a moment, I’ll prepare dinner right away.”
“Senior Brother, what are you going to do?” Su Yan’er asked subconsciously.
At this moment, Su Xing’s entire body was covered with mud, like a farmer who worked from sunrise to sunset.
Su Xing’s entire body had an extremely mysterious temperament.
If he carried a hoe, he would look like a farmer in the mountains.

If he were to let Su Xing carry a divine sword and change into a white robe, he would be like an immortal. There would be no sense of dissonance at all.
1
This huge contrast was something that Su Yan’er could not accept.
After all, everyone had different temperaments. As long as one had worked for a long time, one would naturally form a temperament.
Like an easy-going scholarly, or a robber who killed people indifferently.
Maybe even a sword cultivator who pointed his sword in all directions. Everyone’s aura was different.
However, the problem was Su Xing’s temperament. Su Yan’er couldn’t figure it out at all.
It was as if as long as Su Xing wore any particular clothes, he would look like a person of that particular profession.
Su Yan’er could not help but feel a little curious. What kind of person was her Senior Brother, Su Xing?
Su Xing saw that Su Yan’er was puzzled, so he said, “I just went to the back mountain to dig a pond. I want to raise some fish. This way, when I want to eat, I can eat at any time. I don’t have to go down the mountain or go fishing.”

“Dig a pond?”
Su Yan’er was speechless.
“Senior brother, can’t you practice the twelve sword techniques more?”
Hearing this, Su Xing hurriedly nodded.
“I’ve practiced, I’ve already practiced it.”
His Junior Sister Yan ‘er was really strange. These twelve sword techniques were trash, so what was there to learn?
2
In any case, for the whole afternoon, Su Xing felt that he had not learned anything.
Of course, Su Xing originally did not plan to learn anything from Su Yan’er, who had just started cultivating.
If one really had to teach someone, it should be Su Xing teaching Su Yan’er.
However, Su Yan’er still had some skills in swordsmanship. It seemed that she had come into contact with swordsmanship before she joined the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect.
“Master is not at Sunset Peak right now. Senior Brother, I don’t know what to teach you either. If you want to learn something, tell me next time. When I tidy up master’s room, I’ll see if there are any things left in this area.”
“Senior Brother, do you mean… You want to search Master’s room?”
The corner of Su Yan’er’s mouth twitched. She was surprised and immediately asked Su Xing.
“I don’t need anything, Senior Brother.”
“I have my own opportunities. I don’t need to learn anything from the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect.”
Su Xing raised his eyebrows.
Her own opportunities?
If this was really in a novel, Su Yan’er would probably be at least a heroine.
Besides, she was so beautiful.
Su Xing smiled at Su Yan’er and said, “I’m going to take a shower. I’ll cook dinner for you later.”
Su Yan’er originally thought that since she was already in the Foundation Establishment Realm, it would be better to eat less. However, when she thought about the craftsmanship that Su Xing had displayed earlier, she swallowed the words that were already on the tip of her tongue.
Su Yan’er looked at Su Xing’s disappearing back and felt a little depressed.
The next day.
Su Xing started to tidy up his pond, preparing to set up the fish pond.
After Su Yan’er finished her cultivation, she saw Su Xing’s laborious back and walked over to ask, “Could it be that Senior Brother is really planning to raise fish…”
“What else could it be?” Su Xing turned his head and asked.
“Could it be that Junior Sister Yan’er doesn’t like to eat fish?”
“I do, but the problem is…”
“It’s fine as long as you like to eat. When Master comes back, we can eat together. Perhaps there will be new disciples on the Sunset Peak in the future. You can also try my cooking.”
Su Yan’er looked around.
Would there really be anyone who wanted to join the Sunset Peak?

“The problem is that for us immortal cultivators, cultivation is the most important thing, right…?”
Su Yan’er was ready to argue with Su Xing.
After all, as long as one could step into the threshold of immortal cultivation, no matter how poor one’s talent was, one could at least have a little bit of achievement if they worked hard.
Su Xing suddenly asked in a serious tone.
“Junior Sister Yan’er, let me ask you.”
“What exactly is the purpose of cultivation?”
“Of course, it’s to become an expert, to pursue longevity, and to break through to the Emperor Realm.”
“Then do you know what kind of existence the Emperor realm is? Or perhaps, how long is the immortality you speak of?”
Su Yan’er swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
“Also, why do you want to pursue immortality?”

Su Xing’s question made Su Yan’er unable to answer.
Su Yan’er had never thought about it, or rather, Su Yan’er didn’t dare to think about it at all.
In her previous life, as an expert, who was half step away from the Emperor Realm, the most that she could imagine was that she could break through to the Emperor Realm.
“Look, although you have a goal, now you have to figure out why you want to become stronger.”
She did not expect her Senior Brother to have such an understanding.
It seemed that her Senior Brother was not such a loser.
“Then, Senior Brother, what is your goal?”
Su Xing smiled and said, “I just want to feel every minute and second of my life.”
Su Xing tidied up the fish pond as he spoke. He was very skilled.
Su Yan’er, on the other hand, was stunned on the spot. It was as if she had some sort of enlightenment.
If one did not step into the path of immortal cultivation, they would only live for a hundred years.
However, even if one stepped into the path of immortal cultivation, they would not be much different from mortals. It would be like Su Xing fiddling with the fish in the fish pond as he would never be able to see the scenery outside.
In that case…
After breaking through to the Emperor Realm, he would be able to walk out of the pond and see the scenery further away.
…
Rumble!
Unknowingly, the sky was already filled with dark clouds!
Terrifying lightning was gathering in the clouds of Sunset Peak.
At this moment, everyone from the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect was looking at Sunset Peak!
