Path Of Sword Master

"Woah, brother Dai Chen I never knew you were so good looking, I really am stunned", said Li Jie in a stunned expression.

"haha Brother Li Jie, you are jesting, it's nothing like that, it's just that I was dragged to the salon by miss Geng He and it was also the order of the head blacksmith, so I had to comply or else it's nothing, I am sure if anyone who is taken to a salon will look good after a complete makeover", said Dai Chen humbly.

Li Jie didn't know what to say, he never expected Dai Chen to look this good, he had a thought in his mind "hehe brother Dai Chen, what do you know, God knows how many people waste all of their fortune in the salons for a complete make over but they still won't even look half good as you, I am sure you must come from a long line of good-looking people, damn will I become like Brother Dai Chen when I grow up, why am I having such stupid thoughts, I should just have sword in my heart and mind and nothing else, then only will I prevail in the path of sword master but why am I becoming a sword master, it's not like I am once in an era genius who is born with sword talent, nor do I have a sword talent, why am I learning sword, while I know its a tough path, but can I really say that I love sword a lot, no I don't think so, why didn't I think of this before, am I even worthy of master's teachings and his faith in me to go forward in the path of sword", Li Jie suddenly started pondering over it excessively, and he was plastered right at that place, as if a realization hit him, "Am I even worthy of the sword".

"Brother Li Jie Brother Li Jie Brother Li Jie", addressed out Dai Chen, hearing Dai Chen's voice, Li Jie woke up from his reverie.

First, he apologized, he didn't know what took over him, and said to Dai Chen, to start their travel.

Both the boys started walking, when they could hear a faint voice of a girl, "wait, wait, wait for me young master, I am also coming with you young master, I can't let you go to God knows where, just wait for me", both the boys were stunned by the maid Xiao Chu coming towards, who after reaching close to them, explained that she will follow the young master to wherever he goes and that it is her responsibility as a maid.

When Li Jie tried explaining to her that she doesn't have to come with him and that he will be okay, to which Xiao Chu replied by blackmailing Li Jie, that Sir Patriarch will know of his little adventure if he doesn't bring her along with him to wherever he is going.

Li Jie was helpless and could only nod, he noticed that the maid Xiao Chu had a big bag with her, which she was struggling to carry with her, as she had to correct her posture from time to time due to the size of the bag.

Dai Chen being a gentleman asked the maid to carry the bag for her, as the way to his home would take quite a long time to reach, but Xiao Chu denied his help and said that she is Li Jie's maid and that it is her job.

After all three of them were finished with their discussion, they started to be on their way to Dai Chen's house.

After some time, all three of them came out of the Li Family castle, wearing disguises, Dai Chen changed to his haggard clothing, but after his makeover, it was impossible to find any kind of fault in his looks, the maid changed to a normal female dress, whereas Li Jie also wore one of Dai Chen's haggard clothing, to not get noticed by anyone, Li Jie was joyful to be outside of the Li castle for the first time.

While these three walking to their destination, a figure could be seen sitting atop one of the walls surrounding the Li Family castle, "Looks like your heart is starting to waver, let's see what you will do child, will you prevail or will you fail like everyone has until now", sighed Mr.Teacher.

Who was worried about this part of the obstacle that Li Jie will have to face, which is commonly known as heart demon, which has destroyed God knows how many talented cultivators, the tricky part about heart demon is that it cannot be destroyed, the higher cultivation stage a person is, more dangerous their heart demon is, that is why to keep themselves safe, cultivators try to remove themselves from mortal affairs and the lesser their contact with situations or people who can give rise to feelings in them, the better they can control their strength as well as reach higher stages, that is the reason why most of the higher stage cultivators seem cold and heartless because any kind of uncontrollable emotion can lead to disastrous consequences, unlike when one is a mortal, eruption of emotions can be harmful in many ways to a cultivator as well as to it's surroundings, the biggest fear cultivators have towards heart demon is that it can also stop one from improving and breaking through.

Mr.Teacher sighed, because heart demon has no cure, only the person himself can cure themselves of it, and no other person can help in it, he was afraid of Li Jie losing his motivation for the path of sword, because there's no co.ing back from that.

Mr..Teacher can feel Li Jie's heart starting to waver, now he can only patiently watch if Li Jie prevails or gets destroyed on his own.
