The Holy Maiden Uncovers My Coffin When I Just Become An Emperor's Corpse-Chapter 206: Is This the End?
Chapter 206: Chapter 206: Is This the End?
Tian Feng was trembling all over!
Useless!
"He said I am useless, he said I am useless!
Haha!
He doesn’t want to kill me!"
He cried and laughed, filled with agony, tears of blood streaming down his face.
Powerlessly lying on the ground, his gaze fixed on the backs of Sheng Chuqing, Yang Yan, and Feng Xue.
"Not killing the useless... Senior Brother, you’re quite principled!" Feng Xue said with admiration.
Yang Yan’s eyes were deep.
"I actually not only avoid killing the useless, but I also rarely kill anyone myself!"
"Really, Senior Brother? Why do you rarely kill people?
Is there some profound Sword Dao technique for this?" Sheng Chuqing hurriedly asked beside him.
"Something like that, because by not killing people, no one seeks revenge.
Without revenge, there is no hatred.
Without hatred, there is only peace in the world!
Peace!
It’s the existence every swordsman dreams of!" Yang Yan said softly.
"Peace? Senior Brother, your realm is truly high!"
"Senior Brother, I get it now!"
"You’re too modest, and also, why do you all call me Senior Brother? It seems you all joined before me!"
As the three chatted, they walked away.
Hearing their conversation, Tian Feng’s heart ached even more.
*"It should have been my show, Senior Sister Chuqing should have been asking me for advice!"*
Compared to the pain of ten thousand swords piercing his body, Tian Feng felt his heart breaking hurt more at this moment!
*"I want to die!"*
Thud, thud, thud!
Tian Feng repeatedly knocked his head against the ground!
"Tian Feng, let’s go!"
Elder Ting Jian couldn’t bear it any longer, supporting Tian Feng as they left.
The Heavenly Sword Sect Master headed toward the main hall of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
"Elders, let’s go pay our respects to the seniors of the Heavenly Sword Sect!" he said,
"Yes, Sect Master!"
A group entered in single file, walking into the main hall of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Passing through the main hall, they entered the inner chamber.
In the inner chamber, there was a table!
On the wall hung a portrait, depicting not a person,
but a sword!
A sword shrouded in clouds and mist, indistinct to the eye!
The Heavenly Sword Sect Master took a stick of incense, lit it,
inserted it into the incense burner, then stepped back, bowed, and kneeled on a cushion.
Behind him, the elders also bowed at ninety degrees, kneeling on the cushions before them.
Sword Qi surged from their bodies, entering the portrait they were worshipping.
Soon, a voice emanated from the portrait.
"What do you seek?"
This voice was ethereal and floated around the inner chamber.
The Heavenly Sword Sect Master kowtowed, clearly explaining the situation with Yang Yan. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
"Oh? Another cultivator who has mastered Emperor Sword Intent?
It seems the Sword Dao is poised for great prosperity!" the voice from the portrait continued.
The sect master and elders of the Heavenly Sword Sect were all visibly astonished upon hearing this.
"Please, senior, guide us on how we should approach him!" the sect master asked.
The portrait fell silent for a moment!
"There is no need to deal with him, in the future that I foresaw!
In our Heavenly Sword Sect, there is no such person providing protection!"
What?
The sect master’s and the elders’ faces changed, understanding the implication.
"Should we then..." the sect master’s voice grew cold.
"No need, he ultimately practices Sword Cultivation.
In the future, he will be beneficial to us!
Do not act against him during this time.
Try your best to exploit him, have him work for the Heavenly Sword Sect."
The voice from the portrait paused here!
"Look further, do not let the fog before your eyes blind you.
A Sword Dao genius is not easy to come by.
On the day of future contention, his presence will make a difference.
Regardless of where he is, or which force he belongs to!
He will be of help to us!
The temporary loss will be repaid eventually!
Do you understand!"
The sect master and elders of the Heavenly Sword Sect bowed deeply.
"Yes, we understand!"
No more sound came from the portrait, and the Sword Qi they released returned to their bodies.
The sect master and elders kowtowed a few more times to the portrait,
then stood up and exited the inner chamber.
Arriving at the main hall, they took their seats.
"Sect Master, what should we do next?" Elder Sheng Jian immediately inquired.
The sect master of the Heavenly Sword Sect did not answer the question but instead looked to the others.
"What are your thoughts?"
The main hall became quiet, and Elder Yujian stood up.
"Sect Master, I have a suggestion!" she said.
"Please, go ahead!"
Elder Yujian pondered before speaking.
"Since the senior of the Heavenly Sword Sect mentioned that he will undoubtedly benefit the seniors.
We can’t act against him for now and can only choose to exploit him.
I propose selecting disciples to seek his guidance in the Sword Dao.
To learn his Sword Dao Sword Realm and swordsmanship.
This will allow the disciples to grow faster.
Secondly, it will help us better understand his Sword Dao Sword Realm and his intentions."
"That’s a good plan. You shall handle it."
"Yes!" Elder Yujian replied, then sat down.
"He took Sword Mountain and the swords on Sword Mountain.
This proposal can only bring us some return.
Do you have any suggestions that can help us recover more from our loss?" the sect master of the Heavenly Sword Sect asked again.
Elder Sheng Jian’s eyes lit up.
"Sect Master, I have a bold idea!"
"By all means, share it!"
Elder Sheng Jian stood up.
"In two days, we will venture into the Ninth Restricted Area to retrieve Holy Water.
I believe he can be involved in this!" he suggested.
This proposal invigorated everyone.
"I think it’s possible!"
"If he can retrieve a cup of Holy Water, it would equal the value of a Sword Mountain!"
"Even half a cup would be enough!"
The elders were all excited and enthusiastic.
"Given his Sword Dao Sword Realm and cultivation,
what he might gain after entering the restricted area could be even greater," Elder Sheng Jian said seriously.
Elder Yujian frowned slightly.
"But Elder, Sect Master,
he is currently not among the successors, nor is he on our proposed candidate list.
If others from the sects find out about his identity and his Sword Dao Sword Realm,
how will we explain?" she asked worriedly.
"That is indeed a problem!" Elder Sheng Jian said, troubled.
The Heavenly Sword Sect Master tapped the armrest of his chair with his fingers.
"As long as the disciples we send don’t reveal anything, and we keep it a secret,
I believe other sect disciples will remain unaware.
It’s worth a try!
His entry into the restricted area will be of immense help to us!"
He slapped the armchair!
"It’s settled then, he will replace one of the Heavenly Sword Sect successors and enter.
You all discuss among yourselves who will relinquish their spot!
He will take that spot instead!"
"Yes, Sect Master!"
The Heavenly Sword Sect Master stood up.
"Continue your discussion, I am going to seclusion."
"Farewell, Sect Master."
After the Heavenly Sword Sect Master left, all the elders turned their gaze to Elder Shijian, who was seated at the far end.
"Is it me again?" he asked in surprise.
"Shijian, you must understand the importance of this matter!
You are familiar with the cultivation of your successors; you know them well.
You know if they can go, whether they’re capable of retrieving Holy Water, you know in your heart.
But don’t worry, after it’s over, we will compensate you!" Elder Sheng Jian said.
Elder Shijian slammed the table to pieces.
"Good things never come my way, and trouble always finds me.
Fine!
I agree, I know what to do, I’m leaving now."
He left, both annoyed and furious.
"I will also go assign disciples to seek his guidance!" Elder Yujian followed suit and left.
...
In the sky above, a sword of pure gold hung suspended.
"Is it over already?"
