Chapter 25

The mysterious woman explained, “A sword cultivator trains in both the sword and the heart. The truest ‘heart’ is one’s original intent. In that moment, you wanted to seek justice for your sister, you wanted to kill. But if you held back out of concern for the consequences, suppressing your true intent just to smooth things over, that would be going against your heart. You might not realise the impact immediately, but in reality, your sword would be bound by your own hesitation. The clarity of your sword heart, which you had just achieved, would dissipate in an instant.” Ye Fan gave a bitter smile. “Senior, if all sword cultivators were this rigid, they wouldn’t live very long.”
