"Today, I shall show you,"
"Today, I shall let Mr. Li see this sword,"
He held the sword but did not draw it from its scabbard. His back was straight as he spoke slowly:
"It is the vanguard for the people, the great trend of the world, striking up at the Emperor, down at the Marquises, a righteous person's anger, the world wrapped in mourning, rescuing the living and supporting the dying, a white rainbow piercing the sun, a comet assaulting the moon, this is the world's trend, the spirit between people, all tied to this sword."
"With this sword, I scorn kings and nobles!"
"Even if this body perishes, it can still bring change to the world."
"Besides, what does it matter if I'm of no use in state affairs, I have devoted this life to the sword, that's all."
"This is the knight's sword."
A surge of Sword Intent burst forth, clear and resplendent, stronger than when Li Guanyi had crossed swords with him.
Just two short days, and he had transformed again.
