Ye Chen felt a bit uneasy being stared at by Elder Gui.
"It seems my inner strength is still lacking," Ye Chen thought to himself, dissatisfied with his state.
He used to face Great Emperors and could retort back, but now, after gaining so much power, he still feels uneasy facing someone above that level.
He was even annoyed with himself.
People need to grow by constantly being dissatisfied with their current state.
When there’s some spare time, I’ll pick more Enlightenment Tea to eat.
Forget about taking a bath in it, keep a low profile, don’t be too extravagant.
"Brother Gui, I have a question," Ye Chen said.
"Ask away."
"Are you the pet beast of the Aurora Sword Emperor?"
Elder Gui glared again, scolding, "Nonsense, Bai Jiguang back in the day was just a tagalong. As he lay dying, he begged me, so I agreed to keep watch here for him.
Anyway, when I take a nap, it’s for hundreds of years, doesn’t matter where I sleep it’s the same.
If his Aurora Sword Dao gets passed on, I’ll leave."
Ye Chen: "Brother Gui, you’re so righteous. Believe me, Brother Gui, you will be able to leave soon. I will soon unlock the legacy of the Aurora Sword Dao.
By the way, if you leave here, where do you plan to go next? If you haven’t decided, I have a good place you can consider, Brother Gui."
Elder Gui snorted, "With your little strength, what good place can you find?"
Ye Chen sighed, with a thought, he took a cluster of ancient clan origin from the Origin World and swallowed it, refining it. Then he took a piece of the pre-prepared Enlightenment Tea leaf and chewed it up and ate it.
Elder Gui was dumbfounded.
"Your energy is the essence of heaven and earth... that was Enlightenment Tea leaf... where did you get such things?!"
Ye Chen: "I found a good place, these things are everywhere. Otherwise, how could a nobody like me with no background grow to this level today?"
Elder Gui agreed to stay here for so long just for a promise to the Aurora Sword Emperor, which proves he’s a sentimental guy. This is an old turtle with principles, so Ye Chen didn’t mind revealing a little.
If he could persuade Elder Gui to his side, what difference would the powerful Celestial Burial Sea make?
With an Emperor Realm old turtle at his side, who would dare act rashly? Just throw in a turtle!
Elder Gui was tempted.
"Ye Chen, where is this place you speak of?"
Ye Chen: "I’m just a nobody, how could I discover any good place that would catch Brother Gui’s eye."
Elder Gui: "... I see you as a leading figure of the new generation in the Celestial Burial Sea, yet you’re so lacking in courage?!"
Ye Chen: ???
Calling me lacking courage?
"Brother Gui, I’m going to obtain the Aurora Sword Dao legacy first."
All this time, it was always me delivering scathing remarks to others, and now being roasted by an old turtle, who has terrifying strength, I dare not retort too strongly.
Simply ignore it.
Keep them on the hook for now!
...
A region shrouded in intense radiant light, around which many young men and women stood. Each one faced the light with faces full of anticipation and helplessness...
This is the sealed place of the Aurora Sword Dao legacy left by the Aurora Sword Emperor.
The Aurora Sword Emperor, once the sword legend of the Celestial Burial Sea, not a Great Emperor, but able to rival them, leaving behind many legendary tales.
Even countless years later.
Swordsmen of the Celestial Burial Sea mention the Aurora Sword Dao with reverence.
"Liu Mubai, you think to use the Aurora Sword Dao as a shortcut to break into the Emperor Realm, you’re dreaming!" A scar-faced man with a crazed expression laughed as he flew in.
"Zhang Ba, didn’t think your dog nose was so good, persistent as a ghost, you’ve actually found me here." Liu Mubai’s expression was somber, slowly drawing his sword.
"Hahaha, Liu Mubai, you thought running to Aurora Island in secret would keep the information airtight? We had eyes on you all the way, it wasn’t hard to find you!" Another man flew in.
Liu Mubai held the drawn long sword level, and the power of spirit and weapon as one exploded.
"Spirit and weapon as one is strong, but don’t dream of defeating the three of us brothers!" The third person appeared, staring coldly at Liu Mubai as if looking at a dead man.
Several other sword geniuses around saw this scene and stepped back a bit.
"Is this Liu Mubai from the Martial Alliance? I’ve heard of him many times, but it’s the first I’ve seen him. They say his spirit and weapon as one have extraordinary power, seems the rumors are true, his aura unsettles me."
"No matter how strong spirit and weapon as one is, it’s useless, he’s facing the Three Tyrant Swordsmen, top sword geniuses of recent years from the Celestial Burial Sea. The three brothers are on the same wavelength, their sword Dao fierce and violent, Liu Mubai’s chances are slim."
"Why would the Three Tyrant Swordsmen dare to take on Liu Mubai? I’ve heard Liu Mubai is the lover of Xu Yanran, who has the Celestial Blade Emperor, the Martial Alliance leader, as her backing!"
"How can you not know such a big matter? The Celestial Blade Emperor of the Martial Alliance is running out of time, the alliance is unstable. It’s said the Celestial Blade Emperor wants Liu Mubai to enter the Emperor Realm soon so he can bear his great emperor’s power. Many in the alliance don’t want this, naturally making Liu Mubai a thorn in their side!"
"So you’re saying, the Three Tyrant Swordsmen were sent by someone from the Martial Alliance to deal with Liu Mubai?"
"I didn’t say that." The speaker looked cautious. Regardless of guesses, you can’t speak recklessly. If the Martial Alliance leaders hear about it and retaliate, you’d die countless times.
The atmosphere was tense.
Liu Mubai’s Heaven-Shocking Divine Sword Technique aura collided with the Three Tyrant Swordsmen’s sword Dao aura, stirring violent storms.
Everyone around moved far away, not wishing to be caught up, for fear of being entangled in this conflict.
Liu Mubai, looking serious, asked, "Zhang Ba, Zhang Jian, Zhang Xiao, you guys are just paid off, right? If anything happens to me, do you think you’ll survive?
It’s not wise to sacrifice your future for a short-term gain.
Why not let me teach you a smart move?
Whatever they paid you to kill me, I’ll double it!"
If it were just one, he’d kill them.
But the three of them together, too troublesome, chances of winning are slim.
Zhang Ba laughed, "Liu Mubai, there’s no need for futile struggles, we three brothers came to Aurora Island to find you, we won’t be swayed by anything.
As for Xu Yanran seeking revenge for you, she’d have to find us first.
Besides, the Celestial Blade Emperor’s end is near, Xu Yanran won’t be glorious for much longer. Without the Celestial Blade Emperor, we’d deal with Xu Yanran too.
Hehe, after all, she’s a Great Emperor’s daughter. Even if you’ve defiled her, she’s still tempting to play with, hahaha!"
Liu Mubai’s hand gripping the sword went a bit pale, his eyes flashing with cold light.
At this moment.
A figure suddenly broke through the air, landing near the brilliant light, close to Liu Mubai and the Three Tyrant Swordsmen.
Liu Mubai’s heart skipped a beat, then he shouted, "Kid, I’m about to go on a killing spree here, to avoid involving the innocent, move away."
The Three Tyrant Swordsmen also eyed the sudden figure, one of them shouting, "If you don’t want to die, get away."
Although they were arrogant,
any young person entering the restricted area of Aurora Island is a sword Dao genius, supported by a force.
So naturally, they wanted to avoid extra plications.
Ye Chen smiled faintly, "You fight your fight, just pretend I’m not here. I have things to do, you continue."
With that, Ye Chen ignored the imminent battle between the four of them, turning his attention to the sealed restriction left by the Aurora Sword Emperor.
A smart figure should know what to do.
