"This is the Sword God Palace, and I am the master of the Sword God Palace," Xie Chen replied calmly.
Sword God Palace? Feng Chu's face showed a surprised expression.
This...this is actually the Sword God Palace?
He said he was the master of the Sword God Palace, so wouldn't he be...?
"You're the Sword God Xie Chen?!" Feng Chu's voice suddenly rose, his eyes widening in shock.
Xie Chen said, "That's right."
Upon hearing this answer, Feng Chu immediately distanced himself from Xie Chen. His sword energy surged, condensing into dozens of longswords around him. He gritted his teeth, tensed his muscles, and prepared to fight to the death. Although he knew he had no chance of winning against a Celestial Emperor, he still couldn't just sit and wait to die.
Seeing the boy in front of him looking at him like an angry little hedgehog, Xie Chen was both amused and exasperated. He looked at Feng Chu and tried to soften his voice: "I didn't mean any harm."
He tried very hard to soften his tone, but it still sounded aloof.
After hearing his words, Feng Chu still looked at him warily.
"Although Xie Tianqi is my grand-nephew, he deserved to die. You don't need to be nervous. If I really wanted you to be buried with him, would you still be standing here unharmed?" Xie Chen said.
Feng Chu thought about it and agreed. He sheathed his sword, looked Xie Chen up and down a few times, and said, "If you don't want to help your grand-nephew avenge his family, why did you bring me here?"
"Would you be willing to become my disciple?" Xie Chen asked.
A look of surprise crossed Feng Chu's handsome face. He... he wanted to take him as a disciple? To be able to become a disciple of an Immortal Emperor was something countless people dreamed of, but Feng Chu had already refused an Immortal Emperor. Without hesitation, he said:
"don't want."
Xie Chen: "..."
That was a very decisive refusal.
Feng Chu looked at the man in front of him with a critical eye. Although this guy wasn't there to seek revenge, what kind of good person could someone who could teach someone like Xie Tianqi? And those who had chased him before, in Feng Chu's eyes, were no better. Like father, like son; the entire Sword God Palace was a den of scoundrels, and he had no intention of taking a hypocrite as his master.
"If you don't kill me to avenge your nephew, then my grudge with your Sword God Palace will be wiped clean," Feng Chu said. Although he really wanted to beat up those guys who had chased him before, what could he do when he only had the strength of a True Immortal? Xie Chen had already said he wouldn't seek revenge, so he went along with it.
Farewell!
Feng Chu clasped his hands in a fist salute and then transformed into a streak of light, flying towards the horizon.
When he flew to a height of a thousand feet, the entire barrier around the mountain peak lit up, and countless restrictions appeared in the sky.
Feng Chu was blocked by these restrictions, and a beam of light suddenly turned into a meteor and crashed into him at a terrifying speed. Feng Chu screamed and fell onto the mountain peak, landing not far from Xie Chen.
Fortunately, he adjusted his posture in time before landing, which prevented him from crashing to the ground in a disheveled manner.
Feng Chu looked at the layers of barriers in the sky and glared angrily at Xie Chen: "What do you mean?"
"From this day forward, you will be my only disciple," Xie Chen said, his white robes fluttering in the breeze.
"What? I didn't agree!" Feng Chu shouted.
"From now on, this will be your cave dwelling. You should cultivate diligently on Qingxin Peak!" Xie Chen said.
“I didn’t agree to become your disciple, don’t just say that to yourself,” Feng Chu said excitedly.
"The restrictions here will naturally be lifted when you break through to the Celestial Immortal stage," Xie Chen added.
Are you crazy?!
Seeing that he wasn't listening to him at all, Feng Chu got angry and charged straight at Xie Chen, throwing a punch at him.
Feng Chu's fist erupted with dazzling light, as if he were holding the sun in his hand. The dazzling light illuminated the sky, forming an extremely powerful pressure.
Just as Feng Chu's fist was about to strike Xie Chen's handsome face, Xie Chen released his sword energy, which instantly became overwhelming. Feng Chu's fist was blocked by Xie Chen's sword energy, and it was as if Feng Chu had hit an invisible wall. All the force was rebounded, sending him flying a hundred feet away.
Bang!
Feng Chu smashed into a huge rock, and the entire rock shattered instantly.
The black-haired, golden-eyed youth flew out from the rubble. He looked at the white-clad man standing in front of him, his eyes burning with fierce fighting spirit.
Suddenly, a powerful sword intent erupted from his body, drawing the surrounding天地元力 (heaven and earth energy) to surge towards him. His entire body burst forth with golden light, his whole being as blazing as the sun. A giant golden sword hovered behind him, and the phantom of a golden crow appeared in the sky.
All eyes were drawn to this place from the peaks of the Sword God Palace, but there were too many restrictions on Qingxin Peak, so the people couldn't see clearly. They did, however, sense an unfamiliar sword intent. This sword intent wasn't too strong, far weaker than that of many experts in the Sword God Palace, but for some reason, it made them feel a sense of unease.
Who is it?
Whose sword intent is this?
Feng Chu roared, and the golden giant sword behind him slashed towards Xie Chen. The sword energy raged wildly throughout the world, and the palace on Qingxin Peak was instantly reduced to dust. Facing this terrifying attack, Xie Chen did not move an inch. He glanced at the incoming giant sword, his white clothes fluttering, and cracks began to appear on the golden giant sword from the very tip of the blade, before it completely collapsed and disintegrated.
Feng Chu gritted his teeth. He knew the gap between himself and his opponent, but he didn't expect that his opponent could neutralize his attack without even frowning or moving an inch.
He glared angrily at Xie Chen, and five-colored light rose from his body, five long rainbows soaring into the sky and transforming into five giant swords with different attributes. These five giant swords were all formed from the companion swords of his natal sword. Chaotic energy and primordial energy swirled around the blades. The sky was filled with changing clouds and winds, and beams of light from various caves of the Sword God Palace flew out and looked towards Qingxin Peak.
There were five sword lights there.
The dazzling sword light resembled brocade, but the chaotic energy and primordial energy surrounding it left the disciples of the Sword God Palace speechless.
This is not the Palace Master's sword, whose sword is it?
Boom—
The sword light on Qingxin Peak engulfed everything, and a deafening roar echoed between heaven and earth.
After a long while, the black-haired, golden-eyed boy was seen panting heavily amidst the ruins, while the white-clad man ten steps away remained unharmed. The damaged palace and everything else were rapidly returning to their original state; in just a few breaths, the magnificent palace and blooming exotic flowers and plants reappeared in Feng Chu's sight.
Xie Chen looked at him, his expression showing no anger or anything else: "You're only at the True Immortal realm, it's too early for you to want to fight your master."
"You bastard! Who agreed to become your disciple?" Feng Chu cursed. "A dignified Immortal Emperor trying to force his disciples into a deal? Have you no shame?"
