The Sword Strider Saga

Xu Longxiang jerked his horse to a sudden stop, shouting his brother's name several times. Seeing no reaction from the latter, he thought his brother had died, and broke into loud sobs. It was only after Old Huang hobbled over and whispered a few words that Xu Longxiang started to laugh while sucking in his snot, giving the old servant a pat on the shoulder that landed as a slap so hard, the old m...

After bathing and changing attires at Wutong Garden, Xu Fengnian made his way to the Tingchao Pavilion. Upon opening the door, he climbed to the third floor, where white fox-face was searching for sutras on a ladder. "Holla." Xu Fengnian sent a greeting. White fox-face jumped down from the long ladder, and the two locked eyes but no one said a word. The atmosphere was neither warm nor affectionate...

In front of the Northern Liang Palace, Murong Tonghuang followed Xu Fengnian out and off the carriage. He was taken aback by the grand scale of the estate and the underwhelming reception in contrast. For a grand estate like Northern Liang Palace, Murong Tonghuang had expected more servants waiting for Prince Xu to return. Instead, the palace seemed to have only one frail old man standing at the ve...

All good things must come to an end. Upon reaching the desolate border where two provinces met, Xu Fengnian's carriage came to a halt as Qing Niao heard a faint sound from inside. Xu Fengnian lifted the curtain, stepped out, and found himself lost in thought when he gazed at the far less impressive sceneries of Northern Liang compared to the South. With the arrival of Frost's Descent, the trees wi...

The snotty Zhao Biao, who was now positively craning his neck and gawking at Murong Wuzhu, was surprised to discover that she was actually Murong Tonghuang's sister. "Could such an unbelievably beautiful pair truly exist in this world? It seemed that the heavens had bestowed their blessings upon me." He thought. Zhao Biao's mouth watered uncontrollably as he declared, "Come to me, birdies. I have...

Xu Fengnian and his group took a slight detour on their way back and arrived at Guangling River. Today was the height of the August tide, and visitors from far and wide gathered to witness the awe-inspiring spectacle. Swallow Rock, renowned for its picturesque views, stood unrivaled among all as the premier location for tide-watching. On this particular day, the Guangling Navy organized a grand fl...

A few days ago, Xu Fengnian's body felt like an alchemical furnace as the clash between Zhao Xuansu's purple aura and Wang Chonglou's Great Flavium created a tumultuous spectacle. Overwhelmed by the intensity, Xu Fengnian slipped into a state of unconsciousness, hovering on the brink of death. Upon awakening, Qing Niao informed him that Miss Tehee had rescued him, absorbing the opposing purple aur...

As Deng Tai'e's six seaxes buzzed and chirped, Zhao Xuansu's soul that failed to ascend to the Heavenly Gate and lost its physical attachment still lingered, floating in mid-air. With the blade in his hand, Xu Fengnian slowly stepped back, mocking, "It's what they say, even a centipede won't die easily. These stubborn old Taoists just won't let go." Zhao Xuansu, who was unable to enter the Heavenl...

Following their hasty departure from City of the Peerless, Xu Fengnian, Prince of Northern Liang and his companions caught the attention of Bugsy, whose identity remained somewhat mysterious. Sensing the obscure gaze Xu Fengnian directed toward them, Bugsy walked back to Long Yuxuan, mounted his horse, and rode alongside Xu Fengnian. Without any pretense or disguise, he candidly introduced himself...

In the bustling City of the Peerless, a sight both wondrous and extraordinary graced the skies as nearly two thousand swords shimmered and floated, casting an enchanting spectacle. As the city gates stood witness, an old donkey, weariness etched on its face, ambled its way into the city. Seated on the donkey was a servant-looking young boy with an empty scabbard adorning his waist. With a furrowed...

Xu Fengnian turned to say to Xuanyuan Qingfeng with a smile, "Please find and tell him, I will accept him as a swordsman of Northern Liang Palace." Xuanyuan Qingfeng frowned and asked, "Really?" Xu Fengnian nodded, "I'm a man of my word." Xuanyuan Qingfeng did not return to Guniu Peak after she went back to her towered ship. She sailed straight along Longwang River to Qinglong Creek to look for th...

Before departing from Mount Longhu, Xu Fengnian crafted three plaques for the temple, utilizing old peach wood from the mountain. Maester Zhao Xituan couldn't contain his joy. He smiled broadly, showering Xu Fengnian with compliments, "The sages once said that a plaque is the heart and soul of a family. Even with good writing, without an imposing presence, it can only serve as an adornment. Only w...

Xu Fengnian didn't check the countless treasures in Guniu Mansion. He sat on the steps under the eaves and sighed. After leaving Liangzhou Province, he saw the Red-Armored Runic Knights that had disappeared for long; the Sword Master and swordguard of Wu's Shrine blocked his way for no reason; Wang Mingyin the Eleventh wanted to behead him; Cao Changqing took Jiang Ni away in Jiangnan Circuit. He...

Xuanyuan Qingfeng sat in the rain for a long time, looking lost. Seeing that she had no intention of getting up, Xu Fengnian reminded her, "Xuanyuan Qingfeng, you can't let me hold the umbrella for you forever. Now that Guniu Peak is leaderless, it is a great opportunity for you to realize your aspirations. Don't waste it." Xuanyuan Qingfeng struggled to get up, and sneered, "I can realize my aspi...

The group of people hurried to Snowgrand. The closer they got, the stronger the wind and the thunder became. It sounded like ten thousand horses galloping, which made their eardrums hurt. Qing Niao held the Flash Spear in one hand and an umbrella in the other, looking calm. When Xuanyuan Jingyi reached Snowgrand, he saw the strapping figure of Xuanyuan the Forefather. Xuanyuan Dapan's internal for...

On Snowgrand, the middle-aged scholar walked against the wind slowly, his sleeves fluttering, and his figure distinguishing. He's been waiting for this for twenty years. Now, he showed his true self. Along the way, he kept coughing with blood oozing from his mouth. Xuanyuan Jingcheng stopped to look at the tall figure at the other end of Snowgrand, and murmured, "Finally." That man was unusually b...

After climbing up a 300-step jade-paved path, there was a memorial archway with "All Mighty" written on it, with "True Martial Arts" next to it. It was the gate of the Xuanyuan residence on Mount Huishan. Xu Fengnian and Xu Longxiang stood under the archway. Standing beside them were the sheepskin-coated geezer and Qing Niao who was holding the Flash Spear in her hand. Behind them were Ning Emei t...

In the backyard of Xuanyuan Jingcheng's place on Guniu Peak, a woman in gorgeous attire stood in front of a glass fish tank with a small porcelain bowl in her hand. She threw the fish bait into the tank, and the red carp swam happily. A tall, strong man let himself in and walked straight to the fish tank. He touched the glazed tank and said with a smile, "My sister-in-law, we are all alone now. Ma...

"Your Highness, your remark about fame and fortune is very insightful. If a scholar fishes for fame and credit. It seems that he doesn't care about profits, but he is no different from a merchant." "If they apply empty theories without considering the actual situations, they would endanger the kingdom. And they are not real scholars. If they read at home while laughing at the poor who have frozen...

Xu Fengnian didn't know that someone in Mount Huishan happened to look at Mount Longhu not long ago. Xuanyuan Qingfeng and his grandfather Xuanyuan Guoqi stood behind the railing of the river-facing passage on top of Mastery Pavilion. Mastery Pavilion was built on the cliff, and it was windy and cold there. Xuanyuan Qingfeng adjusted the collar to keep herself warm. Seeing this, the old man with g...

As the ship and the bamboo raft docked, they could already see Unfettered Haven on the bank of Qinglong Creek. The group took a bluestone path and walked toward the small sanctum. Zhao Xituan turned and looked at the forces Xu Fengnian brought with him. There was only Li Chungang, a hundred light cavalry, and a few powerful bodyguards. It seemed that Xu Fengnian didn't intend to make trouble in Mo...

Since the God of Sword had spoken, Xu Fengnian had to take it seriously. Besides, he wanted to go to Mount Longhu soon, so he didn't make it hard for the Xuanyuans. Sitting in the towered ship, they headed down to Mount Longhu along the Shejiang River. While standing at the bow of the ship and chatting with Li Chungang, Xu Fengnian was feeling a little regretful, for he was thinking about going to...

Xu Fengnian was a little distracted. Since he had met white fox-face before, he soon came to his senses and asked curiously, "It seems that you are not with them. What's going on? Does the local tyrant rob girls?" Murong Tonghuang bit his lips and ignored the guy with an accent. Xu Fengnian asked calmly, "Who did they take away? I didn't see it clearly. If you refuse to talk to me, I won't care ab...

Outside Jianzhou Province, there were stumps all over the main thoroughfare. Dozens of bodyguards of the Peace Escort were cut into pieces by a young swordsman within half an hour. The twenty light cavalries behind him watched from a distance and did not strike. Before setting off for the escort, the head of the escort felt that something might happen today. They were tasked with escorting an inva...

Xu Fengnian and his entourage left the Lu Mansion and headed straight to Mount Longhu. They wouldn't stay any longer in Yangzhou Province. It was well known that there was Mount Longhu in the West and the Xuanyuan Family in the East in Jianzhou Province. Jianzhou Province was split into two parts by the Shejiang River. To the west of the river lay Mount Longhu and to the east the Xuanyuan Family....
