“My senior brother has been looking to choose his own protector these past few days, but I don’t know if the Heavenly Sword Sect is fortunate enough to have him.”
"Your senior brother?"
"A prominent figure in the Haoqi Pavilion, highly regarded by both Elder Meng and the Holy Master, and the most popular disciple of the Haoqi Pavilion this year."
"Please put in a good word for me, Master Ye. The entire cultivation world is in a state of chaos right now, but the atmosphere of my Heavenly Sword Sect is absolutely pure and upright. Your senior brother certainly won't mind."
"Regarding Xiu Qiyu."
"Please rest assured, Master Ye, I will definitely communicate and coordinate with all the alchemists to give you a satisfactory answer."
"However, please rest assured, elders. I am only worried about the health of Xiu Qiyu and Ye Liusha. I have no intention of hindering the Heavenly Sword Sect from accepting disciples. Please do not misunderstand."
“We are naturally aware of that. This is definitely an exception. Xiu Qiyu and Ye Liusha are simply too outstanding, and dozens of elders are tempted by them. Other disciples would never receive such treatment.”
"I'll take my leave now."
In this way, Xiu Qiyu and Ye Liusha can catch their breath and no longer be forced to fight every day. Such blind fighting has no meaning or value.
Having resolved the matter, Ye Xiruo went back to check on Xiu Qiyu and Ye Liusha. She found that their conditions had stabilized, which put her at ease. She then went back to begin refining pills.
Business at the Heavenly Sword Sect should be much easier than at the Medicine King Pavilion, since there are far fewer competitors. She needs to earn more spirit crystals so she can afford to buy high-grade spiritual herbs when she gets back.
Ye Xiruo went into seclusion for three days. During these three days, Xiu Qiyu and Ye Liusha's injuries were fully recovered, and as expected, there were not so many challenge letters.
This relieved both of them, and they began to screen the results based on their contacts and investigations.
The Heavenly Sword Sect takes the Heavenly Sword as its orthodox weapon, but from ancient times to the present, no more than six people have been able to forge the Heavenly Sword. Among them is the ancestor of the Heavenly Sword Sect, the one who founded the sect.
Not all swordsmen who master the Heavenly Sword become sect leaders, but their combat prowess is unmatched not only by the Heavenly Sword Sect, but also by everyone in the entire Blue Ocean Continent.
The Heavenly Sword, the legendary sword of the heavens, in harmony with the Dao, possesses boundless power and few rivals. Every swordsman who joins the Heavenly Sword Sect harbors a great dream: to forge the Heavenly Sword and become one of the six unparalleled swordsmen forever etched in history.
Unfortunately, it has been a year since the last Heavenly Sword ascended to immortality, and the Heavenly Sword Sect has not had anyone forge a Heavenly Sword in two hundred years.
The Heavenly Sword has become an unattainable legend, but every swordsman who joins the Heavenly Sword Sect is repeatedly told that the Heavenly Sword of the Heavenly Sword Sect is the most profound martial art. Those who can master the Heavenly Sword will stand at the pinnacle of the Blue Ocean Continent, and their Heavenly Sword Sect will be able to regain its glory.
Xiu Qiyu and Ye Liusha naturally believed the rumors about the Heavenly Sword. The glorious history of the Heavenly Sword Sect was real, and the Heavenly Sword did indeed exist.
The two naturally wanted to see the Heavenly Sword, but unfortunately, the Heavenly Sword lineage had declined and it seemed that only six people remained.
An elder at the late stage of the Tribulation Transcending realm is the peak master, in charge of Heavenly Sword Peak. There are six disciples in total on Heavenly Sword Peak. They rarely interact with people from other peaks, and their martial arts strength doesn't seem to be very high. However, no one goes back to offend them. The peak master of Heavenly Sword Peak, True Person Zhang Hua, is notoriously protective of his own. It's fine to bully him, but bullying his disciple is like asking for trouble. He will definitely storm up the peak and make the peak master of that peak admit his mistake and apologize, or else he will take action.
Master Zhang Hua's martial prowess is exceptionally high. If he hadn't been suppressing his cultivation level, he would have ascended to immortality long ago.
Master Zhang Hua is also known for being unreasonable, fully embodying and representing the fine traditions of the Heavenly Sword Sect. What's the point of reasoning if you're going to fight first?
If you can't beat them, then don't waste your breath.
In terms of martial prowess, there are no more than five swordsmen in the Heavenly Sword Sect who can defeat Master Zhang Hua. Therefore, the peak masters usually try their best to restrain their disciples from provoking the six people from Heavenly Sword Peak. Even if they are beaten, they must endure it.
You must never, ever take action unless it is a matter of life and death.
Those who provoke Heavenly Sword Peak will ultimately be defeated by Zhang Hua's direct attack on their doorstep in front of many disciples, resulting in utter humiliation.
Over time, Tianjian Peak became even more mysterious. No one even knew whether the disciples inside were male or female, or what they looked like. It had become a taboo of the Tianjian Sect.
The infamous master of Tianjian Peak still lives in people's imagination as a handsome, righteous, and peerless swordsman.
Haha~~ That's a huge mistake.
In Xue Junhan's message to Ye Xiruo, the first master he recommended was Zhang Hua.
Xiu Qiyu and Ye Liusha were both certain that there had been no news of Zhang Hua Zhenren in the past few days. In any case, they didn't know how those six people got in. No one had been to Tianjian Peak for nearly a hundred years.
Perhaps Elder Zhang Hua simply didn't want to take on any disciples? The selection and recruitment process, which was crucial for the Heavenly Sword Sect, couldn't attract even the slightest interest from Elder Zhang Hua.
However, the more this was the case, the more interested Xiu Qiyu became in this Master Zhang Hua.
Although Ye Liusha also yearned for the Heavenly Sword, he remained steadfast in his own path. He believed that all paths lead to the same goal, and that his own path was correct. He was confident that by following his own path, he would surely ascend to the Great Dao. Therefore, he did not have such a strong obsession with the Heavenly Sword.
He believed that given time, he could create a sword technique no less powerful than the Heavenly Sword. Currently, Ye Liusha had his sights set on a swordsman named Ku Wu Zhenren.
