The Legend of the Sacred Sword Cultivator
Ch 58: Decision

After finishing all his affairs with the villagers and also with Jiji and Yiyi, Yang Jian left the village on foot. Yang Jian's firm steps relaxed and slowly as if there was something he was waiting for behind.

Yang Jian had already left the village half an hour ago. Now he is in a shady forest where villagers used to cut wood for their daily living needs.

The forest is quite beautiful, leafy leaves cover some of the incoming sunlight access greet the earth. The forest land is only grown by tall trees and is quite large, there are no bushes in the slightest. This makes the forest seem comfortable to pass and not dangerous.

Even Yang Jian found no signs of ferocious beasts in the forest.

Yang Jian walked while reading a book, yet things did not make Yang Jian trouble for doing so while walking.

"I remember you once said that a cultivator cannot absorb the blood of a demon king or queen directly, but can do so using certain techniques and techniques, right?"

When the dragon explained regarding the seal marks that were in the Heavenly World and its effects to Yang Jian, it, dragon said that there was one special technique that could be used in order to be able to absorb the blood of a demon king or queen without committing to a contract between a master and a vassal first.

"Then?"

"Do you know about the style, or is there a book that explains the juror?"

"It's your job to look for it."

Dragon replied that Yang Jian was lazy, he did not even intend to explain a shred of his knowledge regarding the skill.

Yang Jian's steps suddenly stopped, he stored back the book in his hand into the dimensional ring.

"Get out!" Said Yang Jian later.

"Who? Me?" Asked the dragon over Yang Jian's sudden statement.

Yang Jian sighed softly, he turned his body towards a tree whose trunk was large and old. " I know you've been following me since. Come outside!"

There came out two little boys with very similar and sweet faces from behind the tree that Yang Jian was staring at. They are Jiji and Yiyi.

Yang Jian shifted his gaze, he saw that the sun that had been overhead had already descended slowly tracking the blue sky. It will be late afternoon soon.

"Let us come with you Brother Yang, we won't trouble you, really."

"real brother. Brother saved my life so it's appropriate that I devote my loyalty to you brother."

Yiyi and Jiji took turns pleading with Yang Jian so that he would be willing to make Jiji and Yiyi his followers. Yang Jian was actually astonished, before leaving the village, Yang Jian gave the coins and some gifts that would be useful for Jiji and Yiyi to be able to maintain his survival. Yet why did they instead decide to follow Yang Jian?

"I didn't save you, I just didn't want a flower growing among beautiful flowers."

"Whatever you mean we don't care, we both have decided to follow you. We believe that brother is a good man." Reply Jiji again convinced Yang Jian.

"okay? How can you be sure about that."

"Mother's word, a kindness is not a word but an act, and we see that deed from brother."

"There are consequences when following me, I'm not sure you're up to it."

"We who decide to follow brother, then we will face whatever the consequences. After all, we have no one else. No one will worry if anything happens to us."

Hearing that Yang Jian felt a dilemma, on one side he felt sorry for Jiji and Yiyi. His conscience tells him to take the twin with him.

But on the other hand Yang Jian's logic refused, he thought about how short the time he had to get to Stone City and how dangerous his journey was. Yang Jian did not want Jiji and Yiyi to be a burden to him.

Yang Jian was speechless pecking, he was at war with his own thoughts. Whether to follow his heart or choose his logic. He was indeed made into a dilemma towards his current situation.

"All right." Finally after thinking hard for a while, Yang Jian's logic lost. He prefers to bring two twin boys who have the same fate as him. The difference was Yang Jian himself and the two of them.

In order to smooth his journey, Yang Jian intended to include Jiji and Yiyi into the Heavenly World. It is also useful to ensure their safety. But the moment Yang Jian activated the Heavenly World and tried to enter Jiji and Yiyi into it.

Suddenly Jiji and Yiyi bounced and fell to the ground, as if a huge energy was blocking them from entering the Heavenly World. Jiji and Yiyi's pale faces were enduring the pain.

"Uhuk uhuk." The sound of coughing did not come out of JiJi and Yiyi's mouth but from Yang Jian's mouth. Yang Jian initially felt tightness in his chest, yet he suddenly coughed while taking out a red and viscous liquid from within his mouth.

"The Brother." Shouted Jiji and Yiyi running towards Yang Jian who was holding his chest with one hand and the other hand wiping the blood in his mouth.

"What happened brother?"

"I don't know Yi'er, let's sit Brother Yang first."

Yang Jian did not resist as Jiji and Yiyi worried about him even touching him. After sitting down, Yang Jian took a meditative stance, he normalized the qi back inside his body that had been turbulent irregularly earlier.

After a while, Yang Jian's countenance brightened again and the remaining blood on his cheeks also disappeared without leaving a trace.

"What happened big brother, is big brother okay?" Yiyi asked with a worried look on her face, although Yang Jian now looked like nothing had happened to her but Yiyi was still worried.

Yang Jian was speechless, he also did not know why the Heavenly World rejected the presence of Jiji and Yiyi and why the qi within Yang Jian's body seemed to be in such a revolt that it made his chest tight.

"Dragon, do you hear me." Yang Jian closed his eyes while telepathizing to the Dragon. Jiji and Yiyi who were looking at it no longer asked, they thought that Yang Jian was still treating himself and their job was to keep Yang Jian from bothering him.

"You almost killed them." Answer dragon briefly.

"What do you mean?"

"For I quickly realized it and released a bit of my energy to thicken the boy."

"Can you talk straight to the point?"

"Your seal is about to absorb their life energy, just a little too late then they will become the Heavenly World seal collision."

Yang Jian gasped in shock at the dragon's reply, he had not expected that he would just kill two innocent brats for no reason.
