"Fellow Daoist, I was wrong before," Young Sword Saint Jinhua bowed to Chen Zhong on the kendo stage in front of all the disciples. "I have benefited a lot from you."
Chen Zhong stood opposite helplessly. This Jin Fengzhi was really a madman. Before he could react, he ordered Ge Si to gather everyone and brought out Jinhua who was in seclusion.
Jinhua looked bewildered, but due to his grandfather's authority, he had to apologize. How should I put it? He didn't have much grudge in his heart. After all, he was really convinced by Chen Zhong last time.
Moreover, ever since he returned to the pavilion, he had been thinking over and over again about what Chen Zhong had said, and he felt more and more that he had lived in vain for more than ten years, and that it was a waste of his youth to be like a big idiot and complain about everything.
But he couldn't bring himself to look for Chen Zhong on his own initiative. Look, Jin Fengzhi was indeed his grandfather, and by some strange coincidence he fulfilled his grandson's wish.
"You're exaggerating. It's not that serious." Chen Zhong waved his hand and smiled casually.
He tilted his head and whispered to Jin Fengzhi, "Old Senior, there's no need to make such a big fuss."
"It's necessary. I can take this opportunity to suppress my grandson's arrogance!" Jin Fengzhi answered unconsciously.
However, what surprised Chen Zhong was the reaction of the disciples below the stage...
Logically speaking, shouldn't these followers be furious when Jinhua, the grandson of the former Pavilion Master, the most promising talent in the Pavilion and known as the Little Sword Saint, is so humble?
Why, they all seem to be having a great time?
Including the elders, they all looked relieved?
Ah this.
My goodness, how unpopular is Jinhua in the sect.
However, his bad temper is really incompatible with the Jiandao Pavilion, which upholds the principles of chivalry and freedom. No wonder he is unpopular in private.
Jinhua also saw it. At this moment, he deeply realized his mistake, and became even more grateful to Chen Zhong for allowing him to face reality earlier and recognize himself.
In addition to being secretly happy, the audience was also extremely curious about Chen Zhong.
The white-robed disciples were seen whispering to each other, their eyes hinting at each other, all expressing their doubts about Chen Zhong.
"The old Sword Saint brought him back personally. I heard he was the one who caused the young Sword Saint to suffer such a great loss last time!"
"So it was him. No wonder... That's not right. If he was the one who cut off the young Sword Saint's hand, why would the old Sword Saint still be so kind to him?"
"I don't know about that. Maybe he has some big background?"
Several respected elders gathered together to gossip crazily.
At this time, the current Pavilion Master Ge Si spoke up, "Chen Zhong should have a close relationship with Tianyan Palace. I heard that a few hours ago, Ni Hengxiu came forward for him and even had a fight with my master."
The elders were surprised and puzzled. They never expected that this unprepossessing young man could have such a profound background.
Ge Si's personal disciple, Xiao Lihua, asked, "Master, who won in the end?"
Ge Si was silent, then said quietly, "The battle lasted no more than five minutes. My master used dozens of moves, while Ni Hengxiu only used one."
After hearing this, the elders all knew the result.
Only the innocent little Lihua kept asking, "Who won?"
"Ni Hengxiu killed your master in one move." Ge Si sighed helplessly.
The disciples nearby froze in disbelief.
In their hearts, the old swordsman who caused turmoil in heaven and earth when he came out of seclusion some time ago is the real ceiling. One sword can shake the nine heavens, and two swords can collapse mountains and rivers. The momentum is overwhelming.
One move?
How is that possible?
Ge Si shook his head. "Would I lie to you? Ni Hengxiu is so powerful that we can't even imagine it with our brains. Even if all the Grandmasters in the Lower Realm joined forces, they might not be able to match him."
Little Lihua, who was in her teens, patted her chest, which was rising and falling with surprise. "Senior Ni Hengxiu is so powerful, so why doesn't he go to the upper realm?"
"He holds a public office, and his duty is bestowed upon him by the Upper Realm—to guard the demonic dens of the Lower Realm. He is the ultimate guardian of the Lower Realm." Ge Si said with great admiration, "Remember, don't point your sword at a hero who cares about the world, because that would be an insult to yourselves."
Then, the topic suddenly returned to Chen Zhong.
"Then who is this Chen Zhong?" Little Lihua blinked her round eyes.
All the disciples had the same expression as her.
"I don't know either, but this young man... is very dangerous, so don't mess with him." Ge Si whispered solemnly.
Jin Fengzhi coughed a few times, "Alright, everyone, go away. I don't think Jinhua will be as rebellious as before. I still hope that everyone will accept him a little. By the way, I am here to apologize to our ancestors. My bad temper has caused many serious mistakes and brought shame to the Sword Dao Pavilion. I promise that I will listen to my disciple more in the future and not be impulsive or foolish!"
Ge Si, “…”
How dare I, a disciple, give you orders?
After the farce of the apology ceremony, Chen Zhong was taken to the secret room of the Sword Dao Pavilion by Jin Fengzhi, who said that he wanted to apologize to him. Chen Zhong originally wanted to refuse, after all, he didn't like to owe favors to others.
But when he learned that it was a spiritual weapon that could save his life, he immediately changed his mind.
"Thank you very much for the gift, Senior."
Three small life-saving swords that can withstand the Grandmaster level, carved from jade, the size of a palm but extremely exquisite.
It cannot be considered a regular spiritual weapon. It is Jin Fengzhi who forcibly sealed the spiritual power in a semi-spiritual weapon container.
Next, Jinhua took Chen Zhong to stroll around the Kendo Pavilion and explained to him the purpose and sword spirit of the Kendo Pavilion.
Chen Zhong stayed here for a few days, got acquainted with some outstanding disciples, and became friends with them by catering to their interests, especially the female disciple of Ge Si.
