Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Sword Emperor's Legacy
Jian Yan's words were so heartfelt that they left the old man somewhat bewildered.
He carefully examined the young man's appearance and realized that he had never seen him before.
The Sword Emperor asked in confusion, "Boy, have you seen me before? Or do you have some past connection with me?"
As a powerful expert at the Supreme Emperor Realm, he easily sensed that something was wrong.
But Jian Yan shook his head and said, "I have never met him. I am just happy to have become his disciple."
Jian Yan wasn't lying; this was indeed the first time he was meeting the other person.
But the Sword Emperor didn't believe it. If he had never met him before, why would he be so indifferent and act so familiar?
His eyes were fixed on Jian Yan, a divine light flashing within them, as if he wanted to see through boundless time and space to know everything between the two of them.
But in the end, it was all in vain.
Even if he were just a remnant soul, in his prime, the Sword Emperor would never be able to see through everything about someone destined for greatness.
The Sword Emperor stared intently at Jian Yan, his heart pounding with alarm.
But his days were numbered, and he had finally found someone with the same innate sword physique as him, so he couldn't just give up like that.
Ultimately, the Sword Emperor still intended for Jian Yan to inherit his mantle.
But some things need to be made clear.
"Your name is Jianyan, so I will call you Yan'er. Now that you've joined my sect, there are some things I need you to know..."
He already knew what his master wanted to say to him, after all, this was his second time around.
After listening obediently to what the Sword Emperor had told him, Jian Yan nodded and said, "Master, rest assured, this disciple will definitely not let the people of the Eight Holy Lands go! I will make them pay for their blood debts!"
At this moment, Jian Yan's voice was filled with killing intent. He would never let the eight holy lands, especially the Divine Transformation Sea, go unpunished!
This sight naturally brought comfort to the Sword Emperor.
Back then, his entire sect was slaughtered by the eight holy lands, and even he, a supreme emperor, was beaten down to only a weak remnant soul.
Not only that, but the Heavenly Sword Sect's most treasured artifact, the Heavenly Thought, was also sealed so that its Dao essence could not be revealed. How could he not hate it?
Now that his remnant soul is about to dissipate, he has been able to meet his successor again. The Sword Emperor must have no regrets.
"Yan'er, the current Heavenly Will is not showing its divine power, so you must be extra careful!"
Although he hoped that Jian Yan could avenge his Heavenly Sword Sect, the Sword Emperor was not a person blinded by hatred. He still gave instructions, but as he spoke, his remnant soul grew fainter and fainter.
Knowing his master's situation, Jian Yan nodded, and then watched as the Sword Emperor perished.
He already knew this was going to happen. He had cried and been hurt the last time, but this time he was a little better off.
Only when there was no trace of the Sword Emperor left in the world did Jian Yan look at the ancient longsword in his hand.
The supreme artifact is determined by the will of Heaven.
Its blade is engraved with nine Dao patterns, which are awe-inspiring and impossible to look directly at.
Even though that artifact was now covered in restrictions, making it dusty, it was still far superior to any ordinary artifact.
It can still exert the ultimate power of humanity!
It must be a Royal Weapon!
Holding the supreme Dao weapon, his sword-wielding gaze was resolute.
He has too many things to change in this life.
The first thing he did was to help Xu Wan kill Lin Fan!
"Wan'er, in my previous life, when my Dao heart was shattered and I was depressed, you helped me rebuild my Dao heart and saved me from danger three times."
It's a pity I couldn't repay you.
No matter, I will protect you for the rest of my life!
Although I don't know why Lin Fan wanted to kill you, in this life I will definitely nip him in the bud, preventing him from growing and becoming a threat to you!
Thinking of everything from his past life, Jian Yan felt a pang of sorrow, especially after learning that Xu Wan had been killed by Lin Fan, which made his heart ache even more.
But by the time he learned of this news, it was too late. By the time he found Xu Wan, the beauty had already passed away.
He didn't know why Lin Fan wanted to kill Xu Wan, or how he could bring himself to do it, but this time he would never give him the chance!
With the power of the Heavenly Emperor in his grasp, even if Lin Fan is a true dragon, he will still die!
"Oh, right, there's Su Chen. He's your fiancé. You told me you don't love him."
"It's just that I have no choice but to submit to Li Tianyao, the supreme emperor. Well then, this time I'll also help you get rid of this trouble!"
At this moment, Jian Yan's eyes flashed with a cold light.
It has to be said that with a supreme Dao artifact in hand, he is truly incredibly awesome!
However, one cannot blame Jian Yan for being arrogant. Bearing the legacy of the Sword Emperor and wielding a complete supreme artifact, he already possesses the qualifications to become a true god in the world.
Little did he know, his goal was far more complex than he thought!
......
The Great Xia Academy, the martial arts arena.
Su Chen stood on a tree in a very remote place, his gaze sweeping far away, watching intently as Su Yang displayed his might on the stage.
And whenever his opponent defeated a rival, he was genuinely happy for them.
As for why he stood so far away, it was because he was wary of the person from a few days ago.
Although we don't know if the other party has come to the arena, it's always good to be on guard.
After all, he came here today to cheer on his sweetheart, not to compete with others to see who has the stronger fate.
And inside the arena.
Lin Fan was also looking at Su Yang on the stage.
Compared to Su Chen, he was standing much closer.
Of course, this doesn't mean that Lin Fan isn't afraid of encountering someone whose fate clashes with his.
In his view, they would meet eventually, and he would deal with it when they did.
Holding differing opinions, the two did not meet even though they were in the same place.
On the arena.
At this moment, Su Yang had already reached third place on the Dragon Ranking, and his opponent was none other than Xia Wudao.
