I'm only one year old, what the heck is a Overturning System?!-Chapter 147 - 104 Chen Yi’s Killing Intent (Thanks to Sakura Tingjianyue Alliance Leader)_2

Ning Xue bit her lip and didn’t speak.

She thought to herself: Since junior brother has said so, he must have thought about it this way.

Indeed, this was the case.

Chen Yi had walked all the way from Sword Edge Mountain with a very complex mood.

Not only because of his elder brother Chen Yuan being the Absolute Blade Inheritor, but also because of the content of the letter he had received earlier.

All those words about fellow disciples helping and speaking on his behalf, about how his master had taken good care of him.

Now it seemed that what Chen Yuan had said in that letter was false, obviously meant not to worry him.

"Big brother, big brother, I don’t know how much hardship you have endured over the years."

Chen Yi was clear in his heart that since his big brother had the intention to conceal it, it implied that his days in Wuliang Mountain were not easy.

Furthermore, coupled with what Ning Xue had said earlier about the personality of Absolute Blade Sect Leader Yan Hai, it wasn’t hard to conjecture how difficult Chen Yuan’s cultivation was.

That difficulty might even surpass his imagination.

Every time he thought of this, a surge of anger and killing intent would rise in Chen Yi’s heart.

If it weren’t for Ning Xue being by his side, he would have chosen to vent it long ago.

The two remained silent for a long time until near sunset, when Chen Yi finally broke the silence and asked:

"Sister, tell me more about the Absolute Saber Inheritance."

Ning Xue hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said: "I don’t know much either, I’ve only heard some things from master before."

"That so-called path of Absolute Blade could have an impact on the practitioner’s mind and spirit."

"If his will is not strong enough, he might even be controlled by the Sword Intent and become a person who craves for killing."

"But don’t worry, junior brother, this is rare. Historically, successors of the Absolute Blade tend to just be somewhat colder in temperament..."

Chen Yi listened quietly, engraving every single word that Ning Xue said into his heart.

However, in his mind, he was still thinking about Chen Yuan.

But this time, he thought even further back—to the day when Chen Yuan came to say goodbye outside the Imperial City.

It was the time when Chen Yuan gifted him the Spring Rain Sword.

Back then, Chen Yi didn’t think much of it, just felt that his big brother’s temperament had changed a bit.

Now looking back, at that time, Chen Yuan must have experienced something at the Duke Jingye Mansion.

"Did Zhou Tiance also make a move on Chen Yuan?"

Thinking of this possibility, Chen Yi suddenly recalled the content that appeared on the panel when he first got it.

[Chen Yuan’s cultivation was at the Sixth Grade Spirit Acupoint Realm in his twenties, humiliated by verbal insults...]

Given the talent that big brother is showing now, his strength when he was twenty would have been at least at the Fourth Grade Spirit Aperture Realm.

"So, everything traces back to Duke Jingye!"

With this thought, Chen Yi’s expression turned cold, and the killing intent in his heart could no longer be suppressed.

A faint crimson hue started to emerge around him, and the scent of blood spread with it.

Ning Xue immediately sensed his abnormality and bit her lip, reaching out to grab his hand.

"Junior, junior brother, don’t be like this..."

Chen Yi paused, turned his head to look at her, and forced a smile: "Sorry, sister, I frightened you."

Before the words fell, he took a deep breath and slowly retracted his killing intent.

"Junior brother," Ning Xue still held his hand, looking at him worriedly and said: "If you feel aggrieved inside, don’t keep it to yourself."

"Talk to me... talk to Lin."

Chen Yi nodded and said with a smile: "Don’t worry, sister, I’m already fine."

Ning Xue scrutinized the smile on his face and sighed in her heart.

"It’s good if junior brother is alright."

"Yeah, let’s go back."

In fact, Chen Yi was not fine.

He just concealed his thoughts, hid his anger and killing intent.

Even on the way back, his mood was still very unsettled.

So much so that it was not until they were approaching Sword Edge Mountain that Chen Yi realized, he had been holding Ning Xue’s hand all along.

He could even feel the warmth of Mr. Ning’s hand, which made him somewhat uneasy.

"Sorry, sister, I wasn’t paying attention."

"It’s, it’s alright."

Ning Xue’s face blushed slightly, and seeing that he had calmed down, she quickly pulled away and ran up the mountain.

"Junior brother, please rest well."

"..."

Chen Yi watched her run away, then looked down at his hand and subconsciously rubbed it a couple of times, a faint fragrance wafting around.

He couldn’t help but smile bitterly, "Compared to my big brother, am I considered lucky?"

One could say that he was both happy and fortunate.

...

The next day, before dawn broke,

someone was knocking at the door of Chen Yi’s side room.

"Senior Brother, Senior Brother,"

"Hua Xianzi?"

Chen Yi, fully dressed, opened the door and asked with a puzzled look:

"What’s the matter?"

Last night, he hadn’t slept a wink.

Although he still hadn’t thought of a solution for the Absolute Blade Inheritance, his mood had improved quite a bit.

He believed in one thing: techniques and cultivation practices are all cultivated by people, so naturally, they can be controlled by people.

Just because he didn’t have a solution now didn’t mean he wouldn’t find one in the future.

As for Duke Jingye Zhou Tiance—he’ll eventually cut down that old geezer with one strike!

"Today is the sect’s minor examination. Could Senior Brother take another look at my swordsmanship?"

Hua Youxiang hurriedly found Chen Yi and dragged him in the direction of the Martial Arts Arena.

Chen Yi couldn’t help but laugh and let her drag him along, "Are you that nervous, Junior Sister?"

"Ugh, Senior Brother, you’re not participating in the minor sect exam, of course I’m nervous."

Hua Youxiang rarely showed a touch of sullenness and pouted: "The other day, Senior Brother Xie even said to make our Sword Edge Mountain proud."

"Don’t take Senior Brother Xie’s words to heart."

Chen Yi thought to himself this is where the crux lies and casually comforted her: "With Junior Sister’s strength, with a bit of effort, you should be able to enter the top ten."

Frankly speaking, this wasn’t just empty consolation.

As far as he knew, there weren’t many disciples from the different peaks of the Grand Void Sect participating in this minor sect examination.

Only Hua Youxiang, Lu Youxiang, and Li Mingyue from Sword Edge Mountain were participating.

The other junior brothers and sisters were too young and their strengths too weak; even if they participated in the minor sect exam, it would be hard for them to win.

He also heard from Fairy Hua that only five disciples were participating from the Dan Cultivation lineage.

There were slightly more from Lin Xun Peak’s Body Cultivation lineage, twelve in total, including the chubby Wang Yongnian.

The disciples from the Qimen Lineage were also few in number; the little princess had said before that, including herself, there were only four eligible disciples.

Lastly, Taixu Peak had twelve disciples participating, just like Lin Xun Peak, among them were Xiao Xuanzhen, Lin Xueru, Du Yanqing, and the siblings Wei Letian and others.

Chen Yi had a good grasp of these people’s strengths; indeed, Hua Youxiang was on the weaker side.

"Eh? Only the top ten?"

Hua Youxiang sounded somewhat deflated as she spoke: "Doesn’t that mean I won’t be able to participate in that grand event then."

"Just do your best."

There was nothing Chen Yi could do; it wasn’t that Hua Youxiang wasn’t working hard, it’s just that her natural talent was somewhat lacking.

"I heard from Master the day before yesterday that, after the minor exam, the sect will consider selectively nurturing disciples with potential."

"Perhaps even if you don’t make it into the top ten, you might still get some resources later. After all, there’s still one year until the Wei Dynasty’s grand event."

"Really?"

Seeing him nod, Hua Youxiang’s face burst into joy, and she hurriedly hopped into the center of the Martial Arts Arena to practice her swordsmanship.

"Then Senior Brother, you must watch carefully."

...

After giving some pointers to Hua Youxiang, Chen Yi told her to relax.

Before long, Li Qingzhou came out of the Taoist temple, followed by Xie Changle, Ning Xue, and the others as they rushed toward Taixu Peak.

Xie Changle kept apologizing to Chen Yi for yesterday’s incident.

He also said that he would try to find a solution for the Absolute Blade Inheritance in the future.

To this, Chen Yi just waved his hand and did not dwell on it further.

However, Li Qingzhou, who was ahead, was listening to all this and pondering how to solve this issue.

As he knew, the Absolute Blade Inheritance did indeed have a unique system.

Setting aside its might, it indeed had a significant impact on a person’s temperament.

This could be seen from when he was on Taizhou Mountain Battlefield, and he almost killed the frenzied Yan Hai with a single strike.

He didn’t expect Chen Yi, this disciple he valued, to have a brother who was an Absolute Blade Inheritor.

"No rush, let’s watch the minor sect examination first and then think of a solution..."
