Legend has it that in the endless ages, the Divine Radiance Continent was still a chaotic void, with neither black nor white, and all things in the world were still in the process of being nurtured.
Later, a god cleaved the chaos, bringing light to the world. But that god paid a heavy price; he fell as the light arrived, his limbs and head separating automatically and scattering across the continent of Divine Radiance, nourishing the world he himself had brought with light.
But the body of a god is itself an inexhaustible treasure trove, which has not diminished even after countless millennia, eventually transforming into a treasure land containing countless opportunities—
This is the origin of the continental ruins, which is why they are also known as "the ruins of the gods".
The ruins contain miracles, and obtaining the miracles within them would be a tremendous fortune for any sect.
Over the years, the various sects of the Divine Radiance Continent have exhausted their efforts and fought fiercely for them, but they have only found two ruins and have not obtained any divine miracles.
Now, a third ruin has appeared, but the Falling Sea Sect has no information about it. Compared to other sects, this is obviously bad news.
A hint of smugness appeared on Bai Yuanhong's face.
This is his confidence today; he is certain that Su Yuewan has no right to refuse.
Even Su Yuewan had no confidence in the face of the third relic. If Luohai Sect did not cooperate with Yaoyue Sect, it would inevitably be at a disadvantage in the future competition for the relic.
If this disadvantage is magnified infinitely, then the Falling Sea Sect will forever lag behind other sects, let alone become the strongest sect again.
As long as Luo Hai Sect is willing to cooperate with Yao Yue Sect, it is not impossible for Yao Yue Sect to annex Luo Hai Sect or even take Su Yuewan for themselves in the future!
This is the true purpose of the Inviting Moon Sect and Bai Yuanhong!
“A new ruin… In that respect, our Falling Sea Sect is indeed at a disadvantage. But Sect Master Bai’s move is too ambitious. Since you have clues, why not find another sect that also has clues to cooperate with? Wouldn’t a strong alliance be better than cooperating with us?” Although the Falling Sea Sect did not have any clues about the third ruin, Su Yuewan seemed not to care at all, leaning back lazily in her seat.
"Although we have clues about those sects, we, the Yaoyue Sect, don't get along with them. It's better to stay with Sect Master Su."
Bai Yuanhong suddenly felt that something was not right.
Why does this feel so...frustrating?
Doesn't he have clues now?
Shouldn't Su Yuewan be the one speaking kindly to him?
It's getting weird that he's the one begging Su Yuewan to cooperate.
"Thank you for your kindness, Sect Master Bai, but I don't need any clues. Consider this a way of letting you go first, so that our Falling Sea Sect won't always be the first to reach the ruins. That would be unfair to the other sects," Su Yuewan said calmly.
The meaning is quite clear: your clues, Bai Yuanhong, are excellent, but I don't need them.
This is the grandeur that belongs to Su Yuewan!
She is now at the Supreme Realm, though she is only an empty shell, she is still Supreme.
How could someone of the Supreme Realm need clues from others to find ruins?
People would laugh themselves to death if they told anyone!
In addition, Su Yuewan found Bai Yuanhong increasingly displeasing. She believed that this guy would never be so kind as to cooperate with Luohai Sect for nothing; he must have some ulterior motives behind the scenes.
Therefore, rejecting him is the best option.
Upon hearing Su Yuewan's words, Bai Yuanhong suddenly felt somewhat embarrassed.
Now he has the clues, doesn't he?
Shouldn't it be Su Yuewan who came to ask him for cooperation?
Why does it feel like he's begging Su Yuewan to cooperate now? This is weird...
However, he quickly dismissed the distracting thoughts in his mind and said with a smile, "If that's the case, then I won't force you. I believe that Sect Master Su does indeed have such an aura, after all, you are now... already at the Supreme Realm."
"I heard that a few days ago you went to the Divine Sea Sect to settle accounts with Feng Qingjue. Although you were both at the Supreme Realm, Feng Qingjue was so frightened that he couldn't even stand up straight, showing no dignity as the leader of a sect."
"He deserved it." Su Yuewan would show absolutely no mercy to the Divine Sea Sect, especially to Feng Qingjue.
"Back then, Sect Master Su's swordsmanship was unparalleled, making him the number one sword saint. Now, he has even reached the supreme realm, so his swordsmanship must have improved considerably. But over the years, I have also been diligently practicing my sword, hoping to one day have another match with you. I wonder if Sect Master Su would be willing?" Bai Yuanhong said.
Upon hearing this, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became serious, and no one dared to even breathe loudly.
If the ambiguous relationship between Bai Yuanhong and Su Yuewan was merely speculation, their swordsmanship duel was already common knowledge.
Bai Yuanhong and Su Yuewan were once considered the number one swordsmen in the world because they had fought many times without a clear winner.
The last competition was three hundred years ago.
Su Yuewan defeated Bai Yuanhong by one move thanks to a sliver of sword intent she had comprehended, thus officially becoming the "Number One Sword Saint".
Now, three hundred years have passed, and it's time for another competition.
This is the scene that many people have been looking forward to today, as Bai Yuanhong arrives.
Su Yuewan narrowed her beautiful eyes.
She had known all along that there would be a competition today, and was just waiting for Bai Yuanhong to speak up.
Since she is the number one sword saint, not Bai Yuanhong, it should be Bai Yuanhong who is anxious.
She parted her red lips slightly: "Indeed, we should have a contest. But now that we are both of such strength, if we were to fight, the heavens and earth would surely tremble, and the losses would outweigh the gains. How about we each offer a sword strike and test our sword intent? At the same time, our disciples can also learn from it and benefit greatly. What do you say?"
“Since that’s the case, I also have an idea. Our two disciples didn’t get to have a match just now, so why don’t we take this opportunity to each give a sword demonstration and let them comprehend it, and then try to wield a sword together to see whose disciple comprehends the sword intent more? What do you think?” Bai Yuanhong said.
"Okay," Su Yuewan replied crisply.
She brought Bai Hao along because she wanted him to take the opportunity to observe Bai Yuanhong's swordsmanship and use his sword essence to find the weaknesses in Bai Yuanhong's swordsmanship.
Although she won three hundred years ago, it was only because of her sword intent, not the sword technique itself.
Bai Yuanhong's Inviting the Moon Sword Technique was something even she had to admire.
However, she answered clearly and concisely, while Bai Hao, standing to the side, was miserable.
I finally managed to pray for rain, thinking I could escape this disaster, but it turns out there's a competition involved.
He felt very frustrated.
[Why are you all watching the sword fight? Settle your own scores between yourselves. Why drag us disciples into this? The next strike will reduce us all to ashes.]
I never imagined being a disciple here would be such a high-risk profession...
