One More Time

Chapter 242 Once Again

"The next generation of human emperor?"

Qin Mu was puzzled. This name was a bit strange. The world already had emperors, as well as leaders of various sects, clan masters, and sect leaders. Each of them had their own responsibilities and jurisdictions. What did the Human Emperor do?

It seems that there is no place in this world left for the emperor to rule.

"The Emperor is not high and mighty. He has no power, only responsibilities."

The village chief said, "The Human Emperor does not allow you to rule all living things in the world, nor does it allow you to control hegemony and wantonly conquer and kill people to subdue the disobedient. The Human Emperor is a state of mind and a moral principle. The Human Emperor has a seal that was left by the first generation of the Human Emperor. I threw it under the bed. Go and get it."

Qin Mu came to the village chief's room and found a black lump under the bed. He took it out and found that it was a palm-sized black iron seal engraved with bird seal and insect script.

Qin Mu handed the black iron seal to the village chief, who blinked and said, "This is the Human Emperor Seal, the supreme sacred object of our lineage."

Qin Mu looked at the seal and said hesitantly, "Village Chief, do we have any other sacred objects in our lineage?"

The village chief was angry, and the Human Emperor Seal flew up and hit Qin Mu's forehead, leaving a big bump on his forehead, and then the black iron lump fell into Qin Mu's arms.

The village chief said: "I give you the Human Emperor Seal. You are the Human Emperor of this generation."

"So simple?" Qin Mu was stunned.

The pharmacist was also shocked. The village chief had always said that he had a heavy responsibility and a heavy burden, and the title of Human Emperor was so big that he thought there would be an important ceremony to allow Qin Mu to succeed the throne of Human Emperor.

Unexpectedly, the village chief just gave Qin Mu a black lump and regarded it as succession to the throne.

"Nowadays, very few people know about the Human Emperor. We are not a sect, nor are we the emperor of a country. We are just a kind of inheritance. It is passed down from generation to generation, and there is only one person in each generation. We often look for the smartest and most understanding person in the world to be the Human Emperor. The smartest person of this generation is Master Yankang, but he probably has no interest. Moreover, he has already walked his own path, and it is difficult for him to accept my inheritance and responsibility."

The village chief sighed and said, "I'm too lazy to go out. After thinking about it, I think you're the only one who's so careless."

Qin Mu comforted him: "Village Chief, don't force yourself. I think you can find someone better."

The pharmacist looked strange.

The village chief was feeling suffocated. This kid obviously thought it was too much trouble and there was no benefit, so he was not very happy.

"After going out, I have become much bolder and dare to make sarcastic remarks now!"

The village chief sneered and asked, "Will you become the emperor?"

Qin Mu reluctantly said, "Do it, do it. Just give me the dirty work. I already have enough dirty work to do. One more Human Emperor is nothing."

The village chief was so angry that he wished he could grow an arm and hit him on the head. He scolded, "I don't know how many people asked me to teach them swordsmanship, but I didn't teach them. They also asked me to leave the inheritance to them, but I didn't give it to them. Do you still have the guts to despise me?"

Qin Mu lowered his head, kicked a stone away, and said angrily: "I don't dislike it, I just think it's just a title and has no use. Village chief, just pass on the swordsmanship to me, why don't you give the title of Human Emperor to someone else?"

The village chief laughed angrily and looked at the pharmacist: "Do you think he is disgusted? Is it shameful to be the emperor? He is getting more and more daring!"

The pharmacist coughed repeatedly and said, "You two can chat slowly. I'm going to go check on my bugs to make sure they don't freeze to death."

The village chief was furious, but suddenly came to his senses and laughed, "I refused to teach others even when they begged me to. Now you want me to beg you to learn, right? You are getting worse and worse. To be honest, you are not fit to be the emperor. I am too lazy to go out, otherwise I would definitely find a boy who is better than you."

Qin Mu curled his lips and muttered softly: "I, Tyrant Body, who can be better than me?"

The village chief was holding his breath and almost couldn't breathe. Qin Mu hurried forward and rubbed the old man's chest and back. When the village chief recovered his breath, Qin Mu was about to speak, but the old man said, "Don't talk yet, let me calm down, my mind is a little confused..."

The old man's eyes twitched. The instigator finally got his retribution.

It took him a long time to come back to his senses. He realized that others took his joke seriously, but he knew it was a joke, so he felt secretly proud when he saw that others believed it.

And now, I have chosen Qin Mu as my successor. Does that mean I also believe in my heart that Qin Mu is a tyrant?

"I've told so many lies that I know they're false, but I still have to believe them. That's it, that's it."

The village chief was relieved, smiled and said, "As the emperor of mankind, we only have one responsibility."

His eyes were gleaming with light, as if countless sword beams burst out from his pupils, so bright that they were blinding: "Defeat the gods, destroy the demons, and destroy the heavens!"

"Things belonging to God are under God's jurisdiction, things belonging to the devil are under the devil's jurisdiction, things belonging to man are under man's jurisdiction!"

"If the gods and demons interfere, cut off their hands!"

"If the gods and demons dare to show their abilities, then chop off their heads! This is the most basic responsibility of the Human Emperor."

"When you are strong enough, you will have more responsibilities. Go and defeat the gods, defeat the demons, and defeat the heavens! Fight all the way to the heavens... and come back!"

Qin Mu threw the Human Emperor Seal into the village chief's arms, turned around and left.

The village chief was furious. His vitality turned into a big hand and grabbed his collar. He pulled him back and said in a friendly manner, "You are the emperor of this generation. How can you not know the purpose of our inheritance? I haven't finished speaking... Still want to run? Pharmacist, Pharmacist, come and help me hold him down!"

The pharmacist did not come over, and Qin Mu was unable to break free, so he had to give up struggling.

The village chief continued, "There are not many rules in our lineage, and these are the principles. I will teach you my swordsmanship, and you can learn as much as you can. By the way, our lineage also has a Human Emperor Palace. If you have time, you can go and take a look at the great achievements of the Human Emperors of all generations. Also, although my swordsmanship is not bad, if you use it and are seen by any gods or demons, they will definitely kill you... Don't run away, you can't escape from my palm! I didn't run away back then, and I inherited this legacy without knowing it."

"Grandma, save me!" Qin Mu called for help to Grandma Si.

Granny Si smiled and said to the blind man beside her: "The old village chief is finally willing to pass on his heritage to Mu'er. Look, Mu'er is so happy that he is about to cry."

The blind man tilted his head and said in confusion: "I heard him shouting for help."

"He was beside himself with joy."

Granny Si smiled and said, "The village chief's inheritance is the envy of countless people. He was the best in the world back then, a famous sword god. Mu'er was naturally so excited that he was incoherent."

Qin Mu really couldn't get away, so he could only accept his fate and casually threw the Human Emperor Seal into the Taotie bag.

The village chief was very satisfied and said, "You have already learned the first move of the sword diagram, Sword Walking on Mountains and Rivers. Now use it again to let me see if you have made any progress during this period of time."

Qin Mu agreed and used his sword to walk across mountains and rivers.

His sword skills were different from the one taught to him by the village chief. He incorporated Master Yankang's sword-circling, sword-drilling, and sword-wandering styles into it, adding many more variations.

After using this move, Qin Mu retracted his sword energy and looked at the village chief nervously.

The village chief was surprised and thought about it. He said, "Is this the basic sword style that Master Yankang taught you?"

Qin Mu nodded and said, "Village Chief, I changed the sword you passed on to me, Shoes of the Mountains and Rivers. I am betraying my teacher and ancestors. Do you want to fire me and choose another emperor?"

"Very good, very good."

The village chief praised, "Master Yankang is very good. He was able to create new moves based on the fourteen basic sword moves. He is indeed more suitable to be the emperor... But you are not bad either. You don't stick to the old rules and dare to use the modified sword in front of me. Very good, very good. Your vitality thread has also changed. Are you using the sword-winding style to cultivate qi into thread?"

Qin Mu nodded.

The village chief said: "I will use the cultivation of the Five Lights Realm, and you will use the improved sword Slipping Mountains and Rivers. Let's fight against each other."

Qin Mu's eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "Village Chief, if you lose to this move of mine, can I not be the Human King?"

The village chief smiled, refined his Qi into a sword, and said leisurely: "Okay. If you can beat me, I will take the Human Emperor Seal to my grave."

Qin Mu took a long breath, and suddenly his body changed drastically. His body became divine, and he turned into the form of Taibai Star Lord with a white forehead and two dragon and tiger heads under his feet. His vital energy turned into golden energy, and he gathered the energy into a sword. Suddenly, the sword light surged!

Sword walks across mountains and rivers!

Under his sword, mountains and rivers collapsed, like a scroll of calligraphy and painting unfolding, covering the village and incorporating the village chief into his own painting of mountains and rivers!

He not only integrated the basic sword style of the national teacher, but also incorporated the painting techniques passed down by the deaf man. Thousands of mountains and rivers came to his face, just like a real world.

This kind of profound swordsmanship can no longer be described as swordsmanship, but Tao, the Tao of sword.

His sword was in full bloom, and its power was fully unleashed. At this moment, the village chief's sword light flashed, and it was also his sword that was in full bloom. It was like two worlds colliding. No sword light could be seen, only terrible power bursting out in an instant!

Chi chi chi chi——

Dozens of flashes of blood appeared on Qin Mu's body. He was wounded dozens of times and flew backwards. With a bang, he hit the wall of the butcher's shop. Sword lights flashed on the wall, carving a pattern of mountains and rivers around Qin Mu.

That was the trace left by the village chief's sword light.

"Come again!"

Qin Mu roared, sealed the sword wounds on his body, rushed towards the village chief, and once again used the sword to walk on mountains and rivers. The next moment, another figure flew out and crashed into Ma Ye's house.

The walls around Qin Mu were still covered with pictures of mountains and rivers.

Qin Mu was stunned, then he slid down the wall and applied some ambergris to his wound. After applying the medicine, he thought hard and continued to improve the sword and the mountains and rivers. After a long time, he stood up again and rushed towards the village chief: "One more time!"

Boom.

There was a human-shaped mark on the wall of the blacksmith shop, surrounded by mountain and river patterns, which was very different from the patterns on other walls.

Every time the village chief makes a move, the pattern of mountains and rivers is different.

In the blacksmith shop, the mute stuck his head out, looked at Qin Mu, and grinned silently.

Qin Mu's face darkened as he applied medicine on the wound and continued to ponder, eliminating the flaws in his moves one by one and improving his sword style.

“Again!”

A figure flew back across the towering mountains and rivers and hung on the deaf man's wall.
