TSFLIP Chapter 369

“Vast Peak…” The voice murmured before continuing, “I am not a demon.”

Feng Guang followed the sound and saw the Cold Abyss Sword resting on the table. The voice was coming from the sword itself. Could it be that this sword had developed a spirit?

She cautiously asked, “If you’re not a demon, then who are you?”

“I am the chief disciple of Xuan Sect.”

She was momentarily stunned before instinctively refuting, “The chief disciple of Xuan Sect is my senior brother.”

“And who is your senior brother?”

“My senior brother is Shang Baizi.”

“Never heard of him.”

Feng Guang released her spiritual energy to scan the area. Aside from the Cold Abyss Sword, there was nothing else on Vast Peak that carried any spiritual essence or demonic aura. She also didn’t sense any killing intent. With that, she sat back down and asked, “You claim to be the chief disciple of Xuan Sect. Then what is your name?”

“My name is Fang Yue.”

She mimicked his words with a teasing tone, “Never heard of you.”

He let out a soft chuckle. “And who are you?”

“Xia Feng Guang, second disciple under the Xuan Sect’s master.”

“The master’s disciple… Feng Guang…” He repeated her name a few times as if in deep thought.

Feng Guang smirked. “Well? Do you also have no idea that the Xuan Sect’s master has a disciple like me?”

“You are correct, miss.”

“Now, this is interesting. At first, I thought you were my sword spirit, but from the way you talk, it seems like we belong to two different versions of Xuan Sect… Hmm, could this be a parallel universe?”

“A parallel universe?”

“A parallel universe means that within this cosmos, there could be countless worlds. Even the smallest differences create alternate branches, forming entirely separate realities. You see, you claim to be Xuan Sect’s chief disciple, but in my world, that title belongs to my senior brother. I’ve never heard of anyone named Fang Yue.”

Within Xuan Sect, the name of every chief disciple was recorded, as they were usually expected to become the next sect leader. Feng Guang had once browsed the historical records in the library, but she had never come across the name Fang Yue.

“If this is a parallel universe, then why can I hear your voice?”

“Well… Maybe it’s because of the Cold Abyss Sword. It’s a sacred weapon, so having the ability to connect two worlds wouldn’t be too far-fetched.”

“Is that so?” He paused for a moment before adding, “The Cold Abyss Sword is only passed down to the chief disciple under the sect master. It seems your world operates a bit differently.”

Because she had mentioned having a senior brother, yet the Cold Abyss Sword was in her possession.

“It’s not different—my senior brother couldn’t inherit the position of sect leader, so my master passed the sword down to me instead.”

“I see,” he replied in a warm tone. “Ever since I inherited the Cold Abyss Sword, there has been no shortage of criticism. As a woman, I imagine your situation must be even more difficult.”

She chuckled. “Outside, I maintain the image of being aloof and reserved. No one dares to trouble me.”

Besides, with her level of cultivation, no one would dare cause her problems. At most, they would gossip behind her back.

Amused, he asked, “Aloof and reserved outside… and inside?”

“However, I feel most comfortable, of course.” Feng Guang stretched lazily before sprawling over the table, her voice turning languid.

The person on the other side couldn’t see her, didn’t know her, so there was no need for her to put on the façade of an untouchable goddess.

“Senior Brother, spar with me!”

Feng Guang heard a knocking sound from the other side, followed by a sweet and playful female voice. She let out a teasing “Ohhh~,” then remarked, “Sounds like an adorable little junior sister.”

“Miss Xia…”

“I’m just joking. Go on. Keeping a lady waiting isn’t a good look. Who knows, maybe we’ll talk again another time.”

“Then… please excuse me for now.”

With that, the other side fell silent.

Feng Guang put away the Cold Abyss Sword, rubbing her chin thoughtfully.

Chatting with another chief disciple of Xuan Sect… now that was an interesting experience.
