Chapter 317: Chapter 166: Divine Maiden Sect’s Peerless Monsters, Three-Way Standoff, Subtle Atmosphere_2

A powerful female instantly realized something and exclaimed in surprise.

However, not every disciple of the Divine Maiden Sect is familiar with the Divine Sword Sect. A female disciple, full of confusion, asked, "Is the South Peak of the Divine Sword Sect really that terrifying, Senior Sister? Why are you so surprised?"

Seeing a junior sister inquire, the Divine Maiden Sect senior sister who spoke earlier immediately had her beautiful eyes filled with endless waves.

"On the South Peak of the Divine Sword Sect, there lives only one sword cultivator. Besides that, it’s said there are only two sword boys, but of course, these are not the key points."

"The critical point is, the sword cultivator living on the South Peak of the Divine Sword Sect is none other than the Dragon Emperor Sword Saint, who was renowned throughout the entire Nanming Country and even beyond to a state hundreds of years ago. Just now, the junior sister said that person is the heir of the South Peak, isn’t that to say, he is the Sword Saint’s heir? Is there hope for him to become the next Sword Saint?"

"What? The Sword Saint’s heir?"

At these words, dozens of female disciples of the Divine Maiden Sect were all shocked and lost their color.

If it were merely disciples from other Divine Peaks of the Divine Sword Sect, even if they were once-in-a-millennium geniuses, they wouldn’t be feared. But if it’s the Sword Saint’s heir, that’s different.

For anyone chosen by the Sword Saint, their talent in the Sword Dao is undoubtedly exceptional. Moreover, the most important and terrifying point is that a sword cultivator who inherits the Sword Saint’s legacy is almost destined to be the next Sword Saint. As long as the cultivator’s Sword Dao talent isn’t egregiously poor, reaching the Sword Saint Realm on the foundation of the Sword Saint’s lifetime accomplishments is almost a certainty. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Even if that hot talent in the Sword Dao is somewhat lacking, it’s only a matter of time before catching up to the Sword Saint’s strength, as long as they’re given enough time to grow.

As for how terrifying the Sword Saint Dugu Nan was, there’s no need to elaborate much. The most famous event at the Hundred Broken Mountain Range was when this Sword Saint single-handedly stormed the three Major Divine Sects, causing them to tremble in fear. Even the Divine Sect Leader only managed to injure him, yet he could escape unscathed.

Of course, the Divine Sect Leader paid a not-so-small price for this. The Sword Saint is not merely an ordinary existence in the Entering the Saint Realm, but a representation of the pinnacle of the Sword Dao.

"However, ladies, there’s no need to worry. This person is still far from the Sword Saint Realm. When I and Mu Xin saw this person years ago, he was just a loose cultivator in the eighth layer of the Profound Spirit Realm," Mu Yan murmured.

Mu Xin also nodded slightly at these words: "When we sisters saw him, he was just a child. Now, at most, it’s been a little over three years. Even as the Sword Saint’s personal disciple, his cultivation should be around the fourth or fifth layer of the Profound Sea Realm in three years or so."

Recalling the time when that boy threatened them, the sisters still found it somewhat amusing, even feeling it was a bit fantastical.

If they were to see that boy again today, the sisters might be able to crush him with a single finger. This is a world where the strong are revered, and the weak have no right to speak.

In three years, even if the boy chased with all his might, he could never catch up to them.

The group of Divine Maiden Sect disciples, upon hearing the sisters’ description, also forced a bitter smile, especially when learning that the person had once threatened the Divine Maiden Sect. A hint of helplessness and disdain flashed in their beautiful eyes.

Just a mere heir of the Sword Saint, does he really think he’s already a Sword Saint?

"Does an ant wish to shake a tree? It’s sheer delusion."

A female disciple of the Divine Maiden Sect shook her head and laughed, full of disdain. Although they hadn’t seen that boy, just from the two junior sisters’ descriptions, they didn’t think he was anyone worth noticing, just someone destined to die.

Yet, some disciples of the Divine Sword Sect were still curious about the reason for the Divine Maiden Sect’s order to kill this person after listening to Mu Xin and Mu Yan’s explanation. Someone immediately asked, "Junior Sister Mu Xin, Junior Sister Mu Yan, if that’s the case, why does the Sect want to issue a kill order on the Sword Saint’s heir?"

Since he is the sect leader’s closed disciple’s brother and has the hope of becoming the next Sword Saint, shouldn’t the Divine Maiden Sect be on good terms with him? Why take the risk of opposing the Divine Sword Sect and the Sword Saint, and mobilize the entire sect to suppress an ant that hasn’t grown?

However, before the words could settle.

Suddenly, before Mu Xin and Mu Yan could respond, a figure who was sitting cross-legged opened her mouth slowly: "Don’t pry into things you shouldn’t know. It doesn’t do you any good."

The moment the voice of that figure sounded, all the disciples of the Divine Maiden Sect trembled slightly, instantaneously fell silent, and bowed to that figure.

The aura of that figure was no less than that of Yunmo Yue, and even the few figures sitting cross-legged around her were not much weaker.

It’s evident that these figures are all top-tier geniuses of the Divine Maiden Sect, led by the person who spoke. It’s just unclear why so many peak-quality geniuses of the Divine Maiden Sect gathered here, and it seems they received some minor injuries.

However, the instant after the leading sister of the Divine Maiden Sect finished her words, she seemed to have sensed something, blankly opened her eyes, and stared unblinkingly in one direction.

"Who is it?"

"Who’s there?"

The few terrifying disciples of the Divine Maiden Sect beside her also reacted, all opening their beautiful eyes simultaneously, full of vigilance.

In an instant, all disciples of the Divine Maiden Sect were extremely nervous, as if a string was constantly being pulled tight, each like facing a great enemy.

However, when everyone looked over and saw a cultivator from the Righteous Dao sects wearing the attire of the Hundred Sects, they couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Evidently, the Divine Maiden Sect disciples had been on guard for people from the Demon Sect.
