(5 more updates) As Lin Bai just put away the broken Nether Sword, and Nie Xiong killed Zhu Lie,
Above the Cloud Top, a sword intention that dominated all life suddenly shook the heavens.
Lin Bai and the seventy-two sword cultivators of Fairy Cave Mountain looked up in terror at the sky, within this sword intention, Lin Bai felt chilling cold, as if the descending sword intention could easily decapitate him!
A sword light tore through the heavens, shattering the clouds for thousands of miles.
Lin Bai and all the warriors in the Decisive Life Valley looked up, only then did they see the black-robed middle-aged man standing proudly above the cloud top, his hands behind his back, endless sword intention emanating from him.
Even Gui Jing, the Peak Master of the Seventh Peak, and Mizuka, the Peak Master of the Ninth Peak, who were considered hegemonic Yangshen Realm masters in Lingnan Continent, seed pale and dim in front of this black-robed middle-aged man.
“It’s the Sect Leader Sword Master!”
“It’s actually the Sword Master!”
“My God, I actually saw the ruler of Heaven-reaching Sword Sect!”
Most of the warriors who ca to watch were Outer Sect Disciples, who would probably never even et a Yangshen Realm Peak Master in their lifetis, let alone seeing the Sword Master.
Witnessing the true face of the Sword Master, these warriors were continuously thrilled.
“We, the Outer Sect Disciples of Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, pay our respects to the Sect Leader Sword Master!”
“Pay respect to the Sect Leader Sword Master!”
“Pay respects to the Sect Leader Sword Master!”
Each warrior in Decisive Life Valley respectfully bowed, with devotion on their faces.
The black-robed middle-aged man slightly smiled, and along with a dozen other high-ranking officials of Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, descended from the cloud top.
Nie Xiong whispered, “Senior Brother Dongfang, the Sect Leader Sword Master actually ca, could it be because you killed Zhu Lei, and the Sword Master is here to punish you?”
Upon hearing this, Lin Bai slightly shook his head and said, “Not sure.”
As the Sword Master descended from the cloud top and approached Lin Bai, he smiled lightly, “You are called Dongfang Bai?”
“Inner Disciple Dongfang Bai, eting the Sword Master!” Lin Bai cupped his fists and bowed slightly.
“You’ve done well.” The Sword Master said with a light smile, “Regardless of whatever deep hatred you have with the Zhu Family Brothers, now that they are dead, the remaining warriors of Zhu Clan are all disciples from Heaven-reaching Sword Sect!”
“If you do not have an unavoidable reason to kill them, could you consider sparing their lives on my behalf?”
The Sword Master said indifferently.
Upon hearing this, Lin Bai was slightly startled.
The Sword Master spoke, not using the authority of the Sect Leader to forcefully compel Lin Bai to spare the lives of Zhu Clan warriors, but rather in a manner of negotiating with Lin Bai.
Lin Bai chuckled, “I only intended to kill Zhu Lie, and Zhu Lei sought his own death.
Since both of them are now dead, I can spare the others as long as they do not resist nor seek revenge for Zhu Lei and Zhu Lie.”
Lin Bai stated.
Since the Sword Master had spoken, how could Lin Bai not follow?
Moreover, the Sword Master’s tone of negotiation made Lin Bai feel particularly comfortable, and also increased his favorability towards the surrounding Sword Master; at least he did not exert pressure like other sect leaders.
The Sword Master looked at the Zhu Clan warriors with a light smile, saying, “Did you all hear?
Do not think of taking revenge for Zhu Lei and Zhu Lie, today Dongfang Bai has spared your lives, leave quickly.”
The group of Zhu Clan warriors, extrely moved, looked at the Sword Master and knelt down together, shouting emotionally, “Thank you, Sword Master, for your assistance, we will surely not fail your expectations!”
After speaking, the group of Zhu Clan warriors left Decisive Life Valley and imdiately returned to the Inner Gate, probably not leaving there for several months.
Watching the Zhu Clan warriors leave, then looking back at Lin Bai, the Sword Master said, “That sword has been broken by you, with your current abilities, you still can’t repair it!”
“Leave it to .”
“I will have the best Artifact Refiner of Heaven-reaching Sword Sect repair it.”
The Sword Master stated calmly.
Upon hearing this, Lin Bai naturally knew the Sword Master was referring to the Nether Sword, he was quite reluctant, although Lin Bai couldn’t repair the Nether Sword, that didn’t an he couldn’t do so in the future.
“Is the Sword Master discussing this with , or is this an order from the position of Heaven-reaching Sword Sect’s Sect Leader?” Lin Bai didn’t hastily respond, instead he asked with a smile.
The Sword Master smiled, “Let’s discuss it first, if you are unwilling, then I shall give you an order as the Sect Leader!”
Lin Bai’s face darkened as he cursed inwardly, calling the Sword Venerable a rogue: “So, you an to say that the Sword Venerable ca today with the intention of taking the Nether Sword no matter what?”
The Sword Venerable said, “You already possess the Demonic Sword; the Nether Sword remaining in your possession will only overshadow its glow.
Once handed over to the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect for restoration, it will be sealed and reserved for a sword cultivator as outstanding as you!”
Upon hearing this, Lin Bai’s expression beca a bit ponderous.
After thinking for a long ti, Lin Bai took out the broken Nether Sword from his Storage Bag and handed it to the Sword Venerable: “Take good care of it!”
The Sword Venerable took the Nether Sword and, after examining it carefully, stored it in his Storage Bag, then looked at Lin Bai and lightly chuckled, “Dongfang Bai, you are quite remarkable.
I have high hopes for you.”
Having said that, the Sword Venerable ascended into Cloud Sky and left Decisive Life Valley!
Gui Jing watched Lin Bai with a cheerful smile and a light laugh.
anwhile, Mizuka glared at Lin Bai with a face full of anger.
Following the departure of the Sword Venerable, Mizuka directly soared into the sky and vanished without a trace.
Gui Jing walked over with a smile, and Lin Bai, puzzled, asked, “Which Elder seems to hold quite an animosity towards ?”
Lin Bai watched Mizuka flying away and spoke to Gui Jing, saying that after cultivating the Slaughter Comprehension, he possessed exceptional sensitivity to everyone’s killing intent.
Just now, Lin Bai distinctly felt a trace of killing intent directed at him from Mizuka.
Gui Jing said, “His na is Mizuka, the Peak Master of the Ninth Peak.
His relation with the Zhu Family of Zhu’s Fairy City is extraordinary…”
Hearing this, Lin Bai narrowed his eyes, “He’s also involved in those affairs?”
Gui Jing sighed softly and said, “There’s no evidence yet to prove his involvent, but by the looks of him, even if he didn’t partake, he cannot be completely disconnected either!”
Lin Bai nodded slightly, “And what about the attitude of the Sword Venerable in this matter?”
Gui Jing said, “The Sword Venerable has his plans, which are not for us to speculate.”
“That’s enough; you have fought the whole day, go back and rest well.”
“Shortly, there will be so good news forthcoming,” Gui Jing said with a light laugh.
“What good news?” Lin Bai asked curiously.
Gui Jing glanced at the corpse of Zhu Lei on the ground and lightly smiled, “Since Zhu Lei is dead, among the Five Junior Sword Masters, one position is now vacant, and naturally, a more outstanding warrior has to be chosen to fill it.”
“Who do you think has the best chance to beco the new Junior Sword Venerate within the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect now?”
Gui Jing looked at Lin Bai with a aningful smile.
Nie Xiong, Jing Shu, and others, upon hearing Gui Jing’s words, instantly shouted in excitent, “Senior Gui Jing, are you saying that Senior Brother Dongfang is about to beco a Junior Sword Venerate?”
Lin Bai, puzzled, asked, “Isn’t it necessary to challenge the Sword Master Tower to beco a Junior Sword Venerate?”
Gui Jing explained, “That is the only path for ordinary disciples, but you are different, Dongfang Bai.
Have you forgotten?
You joined the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect bearing the title of one of the nine Monstrous Geniuses from Lingnan Continent!”
“You are no ordinary disciple!”
“A year ago, when the Sword Venerable heard that a Monstrous Genius disciple had been killed by the Valley of Demons, he was so infuriated that he erged from seclusion imdiately and declared war on the Valley of Demons the very sa day!”
“You now know how important your title as a Monstrous Genius is!”
“Moreover, you are also the King of Thousand Victories of the Reincarnation Arena of Hanhai Demon Kingdom, a na that carries great fa,” Gui Jing said with a light smile.
Lin Bai smiled faintly, choosing not to interject.
Gui Jing continued, “Whether it’s your status as a Monstrous Genius or your title as the King of Thousand Victories, both are enough to secure the position of a Junior Sword Venerate for you.
It’s just a matter of ti.”
“Moreover, you have also slain a Junior Sword Venerate!”
“Before you killed Zhu Lei, you might have had to wait about a year to beco the sixth Junior Sword Venerate of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect.”
“But now that Zhu Lei is dead, that ti will co sooner!”
Gui Jing smiled faintly, “Go back and wait; within three days, the Sword Venerable’s decree will arrive!”
Hearing Gui Jing’s certainty, the Seventy-two Sword Cultivators of Xian Dong Mountain were overjoyed for Lin Bai!
Lin Bai was not particularly interested in the position of Junior Sword Venerate, but he was extrely eager to practice the “Tongtian Sword Skill” that ca with the title!
