Hou Niao flew back all the way, too lazy to cause trouble.
His swordsmanship skills were soaring, and at this moment of full vigor, he thought nothing was more important than cultivating swordsmanship.
Senior sister asked him to kill people to complete a ritual, and he certainly couldn't use the Sword Holding or Body Sword Skills; only Flying Sword Skill would make the ritual truly meaningful. This was also the most exhilarating time in his 150-year practice of Flying Sword Skill.
Perseverance is ultimately meaningful. Although his Flying Sword Skill had always held him back, he never gave up. Until now, he finally followed the right path and no longer had to keep searching for it. To be honest, the search had been arduous.
It was well worth it; the Heavenly Dao rewards diligence and not giving up.
When killing Sharma, he only unleashed over two hundred swords to complete the Unification Sword. Whether it was necessary or not was irrelevant, but he thought it looked cool!
