He didn’t know what Cheng Yuyan’s purpose was.
He also didn’t understand why he was telling him these things, or why he wanted to travel together.
Jiang Zhi always felt that this person was good at manipulating people’s hearts, while he was just a deadly killer, only good at killing, and was certainly no match for him in these aspects.
However, today... perhaps it’s ti for to turn the tables on him!
Cheng Yuyan was quite surprised to see the sudden change in Jiang Zhi and the smile that appeared on his face.
And Jiang Zhi’s next words instantly struck Cheng the Scholar like a bolt from the blue, leaving him stunned on the spot.
"Then do you know, the one who can save my fifth senior brother is none other than my grand-disciple, Chu Huaixu!"
....
....
In another direction, there were also ten huge eagles flying in the sky.
However, on these ten eagles sat young people, each equipped with a Spirit Sword, all of them sword cultivators.
A group of Sword Sect disciples sat on the demon beasts, and many couldn’t help but look at the frontmost eagle.
There was no way to avoid it, as the great figure they rarely saw even in their daily lives was sitting right there.
——The Sword Sect’s Sword Venerable!
To the Sword Sect disciples, the most revered figure in their hearts might not be the Sect Leader.
For most of them, the one they idolized was certainly the current Sword Venerable!
He was so powerful, and there were countless legends about him.
He was recognized as the foremost person in Sword Dao today.
Many people even thought he had the deanor to rival the First Sword Venerable.
Even the Sect Leader said once the Sword Venerable was willing to enter the Ninth Realm, he wouldn’t just be the so-called number one sword cultivator of the current era.
He would most likely be the undisputed...number one in the entire Cultivation Realm!
Geng Tianhe, who had beco a true disciple, sat on an eagle, looking at his "idol" in front of him.
After being accepted as a disciple by Situ Cheng, the Sword Venerable also beca his martial uncle.
Situ Cheng probably never dread that if it weren’t for this relationship, Geng Tianhe would have bowed to the Sect Leader as his teacher from the start and never chosen him.
This also showed what kind of existence the Sword Venerable was in the hearts of this generation of young disciples.
To Geng Tianhe, to be the Sword Venerable’s martial nephew was far better than being the Sect Leader’s true disciple...
The Sword Venerable, dressed as a middle-aged scholar, had long noticed that his junior’s new disciple always sneaked glances at him from ti to ti.
Regarding this, he couldn’t quite figure it out, not knowing why it was so.
But soon, the middle-aged scholar felt he had understood.
He showed a sudden realization on his face and then took out a Jade Scroll from his Storage Token, handing it to Geng Tianhe.
"Co, Tianhe, you are the new disciple of my junior, and I, as your martial uncle, haven’t even given you a eting gift yet."
"Inside this Jade Scroll is a sword technique I created myself, which matches your Great River Sword Intent very well."
"If you have nothing to do, you can comprehend it a little." He said with a gentle smile.
Upon hearing this, Geng Tianhe imdiately showed an expression of excitent and enthusiasm on his face.
He imdiately accepted the Jade Scroll respectfully with both hands.
Situ Cheng, watching this scene from the side, felt sowhat uncomfortable for so reason.
This kid didn’t seem as excited back when I intended to take him as a disciple as he is today, did he?
He snorted coldly, deliberately showing off in front of his disciple, and asked aloud, "Senior Brother, what grade is the sword technique you have given to Tianhe?"
"Upper Grade Profound Level." The middle-aged scholar replied.
"Isn’t it a bit lacking?" Situ Cheng frowned.
"Is it?" The middle-aged scholar thought that with a Third Realm cultivation, an Upper Grade Profound Level was just right.
But soon, he turned his tone and said, "Indeed, it is a bit lacking."
"Once the grand competition ends, Tianhe should be able to enter the Fourth Realm, and perhaps before long, he will reach the Fifth Realm. By then, he will surely need a suitable Earth Level sword technique."
"You, junior, are farsighted and considerate as always." The middle-aged scholar said.
Only then did Situ Cheng nod in satisfaction.
Then he turned to look at Geng Tianhe, just feeling that he was overly stunned, and imdiately said, "Aren’t you going to return this Profound Level sword technique to your martial uncle, so he can give you an Earth Level one instead?"
Geng Tianhe: "...."
Truth be told, he didn’t want to return it.
He just noticed the intention in the Sword Venerable’s words.
This sword technique is extrely fitting with my Great River Sword Intent.
Clearly, the Sword Venerable martial uncle ticulously selected it especially for , which is indeed touching and sowhat humbling.
I, Geng Tianhe, what am I that I could make the Sword Venerable martial uncle be this mindful!
He even wanted this Profound Level one more...
Fortunately, the Sword Venerable quickly raised his hand and said, "No need to return it, no need to return it."
He could tell that his junior specially ntioned it, clearly not aning for his disciple to return it, but rather pointing it out to him!
——Try taking it back if you dare!
The middle-aged scholar carefully selected another Jade Scroll from his Storage Token and handed it to Geng Tianhe.
"This sword technique also matches your Great River Sword Intent well, keep it safe."
"Disciple... thanks, Sword Venerable martial uncle!" Geng Tianhe’s neck started turning red, with veins popping out.
Situ Cheng watched this from the side, muttering in his heart, "These young n really don’t understand how to be grateful. Gave you a leg up, and you don’t even have one word of thanks for your teacher!"
He coughed lightly, intending for the Sword Venerable to spare so ti during this period to guide Geng Tianhe a bit.
But before that, he wanted to lay so groundwork and give Geng Tianhe so pressure, so he wouldn’t get arrogant and would find the gap with his peers.
Situ Cheng looked at the middle-aged scholar and said, "Senior Brother, you haven’t been down the mountain for a long ti, perhaps unaware of things down the mountain."
"Recently, an anomaly occurred in the Daoist Sect."
"Centered on the Daoist Sect, within a hundred-mile radius, ten thousand swords resonated, and many Spirit Swords even drew themselves from their sheaths."
This anomaly involved a range beyond the Daoist Sect’s [Beyond the Mountain] area.
The middle-aged scholar was surprised: "There was such a spectacle?"
"Elder Jiang Zhi sealed his sword for many years, it should not be stirred by him."
"Could it be that Miss Shen Man has broken through?" The Sword Venerable said.
But he soon dismissed that idea.
"Miss Shen Man’s sword... is too solitary."
"It shouldn’t be her either."
"Then this..." The middle-aged scholar could only think of one more person.
He looked up at Situ Cheng, who nodded to him and said, "I also think there’s a possibility it was stirred by Chu Huaixu."
In his view, after all, Chu Huaixu had already refined the Origin Fragnt and had a trace of the Power of Origin in his body.
Maybe it was this power that was pulling it?
Geng Tianhe listened in from the side, his mouth gaping open.
Brother Chu... has grown so powerful!
As expected of Brother Chu!
His eyes revealed so fanaticism.
In the original plot of "Borrowed Sword," he should have been a fanatical supporter of Han Shuangjiang...
At this ti, Situ Cheng saw his disciple in such a state, and beca rather annoyed.
"It’s only a possibility!" He said grumpily, "In the coming days, focus on your cultivation so as not to embarrass your teacher in the grand competition."
"And don’t just stand idle, you can now comprehend the two sword techniques, if there’s anything you don’t understand, feel free to ask your teacher or your martial uncle." He waved a big hand, even going so far as to decide it for his senior brother.
The middle-aged scholar listened on the side, just still smiling and nodding, maintaining a gentle attitude.
Upon hearing this, Geng Tianhe didn’t expect to have the chance to receive personal guidance from the Sword Venerable.
In that case, if there’s sothing he doesn’t understand, why would he still go ask his teacher!
No need, really no need.
He imdiately cald his mind, investing a trace of Divine Sense into the Earth Level Jade Scroll in his hand.
The first thing he saw was the na of the sword technique.
"Good na." Geng Tianhe thought with emotion.
Interestingly, the sword technique given by the Sword Venerable is called:
——[Green Falling Lodging Fire].
