Jill, the Crystal Demon Part I

A sword was a man. A man was a sword. And a sword usually represented its user.

This was a sentence from the Fundamental Swordsmanship Book, which was a basic human Xian art.

The Ashes and Embers Sword Technique first came from the hard training after Tian Long killed Ling Dong, his close friend. Although it was not intentional, it was Tian Long himself who stabbed Ling Dong until it took his life away.

Despondent.

This word described Tian Long's feeling well.

Since he had used the Nine Gems and reached the stem-building stage, Tian Long had become completely cold and unfeeling towards everything.

Even his teacher, Elder Qing, was not spared.

Yet, this behavior really satisfied Elder Qing.

After that situation, Tian Long was devoted to practicing sword fighting seriously. Because of his own weakness, he lost his beloved friend.
