"The Capital City? What are you planning to do?"

Upon hearing Wang Junze's words, Luo Qingxuan felt a bit jealous and instinctively replied, "Su Yuwei doesn't lack this kind of thing, you'd better worry about yourself."

"..."

With a bitter smile, Wang Junze replied somewhat helplessly, "Senior Sister Luo, what are you thinking? I want to take the Moon Fruit to Xin'er."

"Xin'er?"

In an instant, Luo Qingxuan realized, blushing slightly, and steadied herself, saying, "With her talent, it's still early for her to break through to Heaven-Stepping, no need to rush. Giving it to her now wouldn't be useful, and carrying such a treasure could invite trouble for her."

Listening to Luo Qingxuan, Wang Junze also realized that he was being too hasty.

"Alright, let's keep it for now, and look for an opportunity to give it to Xin'er later." Nodding, Wang Junze then changed the topic, "By the way, Senior Sister Luo, does our sect have a place like a Scripture Pavilion?"

"Scripture Pavilion? You aren't lacking cultivation techniques, why are you looking for such a place?" Luo Qingxuan asked, puzzled.

"I want to see if there are any other swordsmanships I can reference."

Wang Junze didn't hide anything and explained directly.

"Other swordsmanships?" Slightly stunned, Luo Qingxuan then realized, "Chess Swordsmanship?"

Wang Junze had nothing to hide from Luo Qingxuan, and he nodded slightly, "Yes, the practice of Chess Swordsmanship requires reading various swordsmanships, so I'm asking if our sect has a collection of these."

"Any level of swordsmanship is fine?" Luo Qingxuan asked again.

"Yes!"

Nodding, Wang Junze replied, "Yu Luo's swordsmanship isn't very strong! It's a truth; there's no strongest swordsmanship in the world, only the strongest sword cultivator."

Even Luo Qingxuan couldn't help but be moved by this understanding.

The so-called Yu Luo is merely a common sword technique, which even in the Lin Family, didn't receive much attention; otherwise, it wouldn't have fallen into the hands of a small figure like Lin Binqiang. But once this swordsmanship was in Wang Junze's hands, it shone brightly many times!

This is not because the sword technique itself is strong, but because Wang Junze's understanding of the Sword Dao and the Rain Sword Intent is stronger.

Just like the incomplete chapters of Chess Swordsmanship, which even Luo Qingxuan initially didn't take seriously, yet... even before acquiring the complete inheritance from the relics, didn't Wang Junze use the Chess Swordsmanship to repeatedly defeat strong opponents and forcefully enter the depths of the relics?

"I'll take you there!"

Looking at Wang Junze, Luo Qingxuan smiled slightly and said softly, "Indeed, our sect has a Sword Pavilion, where the cultivation techniques and sword manuals collected from various places by our sect's disciples are stored. Of course... some were plundered after breaking through other sects' mountain gates. However... over the years, our sect hasn't actually valued these techniques."

In fact, Wang Junze had already guessed this from the Sword Elder's attitude.

Even while cultivating the Profound Moon Sword Technique, the Sword Elder didn't allow any alterations by the disciples. Such confidence and pride in their sect's techniques had long been ingrained in their bones, so how could they regard other techniques and sword techniques highly?

In this kind of atmosphere, how could other disciples possibly value these things?

Not to mention, during the sect's grand competition, Wang Junze never saw any disciple use any other techniques or sword techniques.

This can't be considered a bad thing because the Profound Moon Sword Technique is indeed powerful. Even after learning Chess Swordsmanship, Wang Junze had to acknowledge the excellence of the Profound Moon Sword Technique. Even now, he cannot completely and perfectly counter the Profound Moon Sword Technique.

Except for the duel with Zhou Yu, where he won by forcefully exploding using the Strangulation sword technique in conjunction with the power of the Profound Ice Sword.

In duels with the other true disciples, he usually lost, which itself is enough to prove the strength of the Profound Moon Sword Technique.

However... this path is never suitable for Wang Junze.

The path he wants to follow was decided the moment he apprenticed to Ye Piaoling in the relics back then.

Following Luo Qingxuan, Wang Junze soon arrived in front of the so-called Scripture Repository.

It must be said, the Profound Moon Sword Sect's disregard for these techniques is really... clear as day!

Although the Scripture Repository is also on Sword Peak, its location is extremely remote, and it's just a very small two-story building, guarded by two inner sect disciples who appeared to be dozing off...

No wonder, there's practically no foot traffic here; no disciples of the Profound Moon Sword Sect come here at all.

"Saintess!"

"Brother Wang!"

Only when Wang Junze and Luo Qingxuan walked to the door did the disciples on duty finally react, hurriedly stepping forward to greet them.

Unlike before, now no one in the sect didn't recognize Wang Junze.

"No need for formalities, where is Elder Qiu?" waving her hand dismissively, Luo Qingxuan asked softly.

"In the Scripture Repository, Saintess, you know that Elder Qiu almost never leaves the building." Those two disciples quickly replied.

"Who is Elder Qiu?" Wang Junze asked somewhat unexpectedly.

"He's an elder of our sect, very old and highly senior. I don't even know his name; everyone just calls him Elder Qiu," Luo Qingxuan explained softly, "As far back as I can remember, Elder Qiu has always been stationed at the Scripture Repository. I used to play here often when I was a child."

"I didn't see him at the initiation ceremony?"

"No, Elder Qiu almost never participates in any sect activities. You'll know when you meet him."

As they conversed, Luo Qingxuan led Wang Junze into the Scripture Repository, and soon, Wang Junze saw the Elder Qiu in a corner of the hall.

The elder was clad in gray robes, his hair snow-white, holding a scroll in his hand, and seemed entirely engrossed in the book, paying no mind to Wang Junze and Luo Qingxuan's arrival.

Wang Junze tried sensing the elder's aura but found he couldn't gauge the elder's cultivation level at all.

"Elder Qiu, I've come to see you."

Luo Qingxuan seemed very familiar with him, walked over with a mischievous smile, and reached out as if to snatch the elder's book.

"Luo Ya'er, how old are you now, still coming to cause trouble?" Elder Qiu said, holding the scroll firmly, glaring at her bluffly.

"No matter how old, I'm still your Luo Ya'er!" Sitting down with a cheeky grin, Luo Qingxuan waved to Wang Junze and said, "Junior Brother Wang, come over here."

"Disciple Wang Junze, pays respects to Elder Qiu!"

"Elder Qiu, this is the Sect Leader's new little junior brother. He wants to borrow some sword manuals from the Scripture Repository, so I brought him over. Please take care of him."

Upon hearing this, Elder Qiu lifted his head to glance at Wang Junze, somewhat surprised, asking, "Doesn't seem like much, how did Luo Ya'er take a liking to you?"

"???"

That question genuinely baffled both Wang Junze and Luo Qingxuan at once.

What was that about?!
