"The Xuanyuan Divine Sword?"
Upon hearing these words, Jun Changxiao immediately recalled the scenes he had seen in the illusion.
Before Gu Xuanyuan died, he had given the sword he had used to kill his enemies to a child.
Wait a moment!
Jun Changxiao immediately grasped the crux of the matter. He shot to his feet and exclaimed, "Senior, could you be the child Gu Xuanyuan gave away back then?!"
Sword Saint!
And the Xuanyuan Divine Sword!
Just a little thought and he would understand!
"You …"
Jian Guixu's hands trembled. "How do you know that child?"
From his expression and actions, he seemed to be in great disbelief and excitement.
"Because this junior once unintentionally entered an illusory realm and personally witnessed the scene of Senior Gu resisting the Heavenly Devil Emperor until his death," Jun Chang said with a smile.
Jian Guixu's hands trembled even faster.
"Divination!"
Suddenly, he looked up at the sky and said, "You were right. This old man really can meet the fated one in this lifetime!"
Divination?
What did this have to do with him?
Jun Changxiao was confused.
"Jun Patriarch!" Jian Guixu stood up and said, "Please come with this old man!"
The two left the bamboo hut and stopped in front of a stone wall in the back of the mountain.
"Boom!"
Jian Guixu placed his hand on an inconspicuous groove. A stone door slowly opened, and a historical aura blew in.
"Please!"
Jun Changxiao entered, puzzled.
Behind the door was a passageway that was not too narrow. Judging from the dull surface of the walls on both sides, it was probably man-made and even had some history.
The passageway was parallel at first, but it gradually sloped downward.
The two walked for an unknown period of time before finally entering a spacious cave.
There were eight large pillars in the cave that served as support points. Lifelike wyverns and beasts were carved on them.
There was a stone platform in the center. Two statues were erected on the platform, a little girl hugging a sword and a black-robed middle-aged man guarding her.
Jun Changxiao's expression was solemn.
Wasn't that middle-aged man guarding the child the Sword Saint of Guixu!
And that sword he was hugging …
Jun Changxiao could no longer suppress his emotions. He blurted out, "Senior Gu's Xuanyuan Divine Sword?"
"Not bad."
The Ruins of Sinkhole Sword Saint said seriously.
"In other words," Jun Changxiao said with a frown, "the little girl you're protecting is the person Senior Gu sent out?"
"Not bad."
Jun Changxiao was silent.
Before inheriting the Xuanyuan Realm, he had only known that the one who had been sent out was a child. However, he had never been able to tell the gender of the child. Now, he had finally found out that it was a girl.
"Where is she?"
"Let's go."
"Where did you go?"
"I've searched all over the upper universe, but I haven't found any news."
At this point, a pained expression appeared on Jian Guixu's face, as if he was deeply blaming himself for not being able to protect that child.
"What is your relationship with Senior Gu?" Jun Changxiao asked.
"A teacher and a friend."
Memories of the past gradually surfaced in Jian Guixu's eyes, and his thoughts gradually drifted to the youth that he had once lost.
"Senior!"
Jun Changxiao interrupted, "Where's the Xuanyuan Divine Sword?"
"Ai."
Jian Guixu sighed. "It's a long story."
"Then let's put it simply," Jun Changxiao said, "I've just destroyed the Demonic Emperor's fleet. Time doesn't allow you to play with memories."
"…"
The System was speechless. "He wasted such a good opportunity."
…
There was a hidden chamber in the cave.
When Jun Changxiao walked in, the first thing he saw was a simple and unadorned sword hanging on the wall.
"Jun Patriarch."
Jian Guixu said, "This is the Xuanyuan Divine Sword."
"…"
Jun Changxiao's expression was solemn.
The sword hung on the wall. It looked simple and unadorned, but the aura it exuded was enough to move people. It even evoked the scenes they had seen in the illusion, where they saw the man who fought against an army of thousands of men and horses by himself.
"Can I take it?"
"Yes."
Jian Guixu added, "This sword was prepared for the fated one."
Whoosh!
Jun Changxiao strode forward. As he got closer and closer to the Xuanyuan Divine Sword, he felt an even more shocking aura.
Gou Sheng was usually very playful, but today, he was especially serious. He even had a heart of admiration.
Jian Guixu, who was standing behind him, also became more and more excited.
He was younger than Gu Xuanyuan in terms of seniority. In that era, he was definitely a little fan. Even though he had the title of Sword Saint now, he had been guided by the other party. Therefore, he had always guarded this sword, waiting for the fated one to inherit it.
The only pain was.
The disciples who did not protect Gu Xuanyuan well were still alive.
"Bang!"
While Jian Guixu was thinking, Jun Changxiao was bounced back and slammed into the wall. His raised hand trembled violently as if it had been electrocuted.
"…"
Seeing this, Jian Guixu's heart sank.
Jun Patriarch went to touch it and was bounced away. This meant that there was no fate!
"Jun Patriarch."
Jian Guixu said bitterly, "It seems that you are not the person the Xuanyuan Divine Sword is waiting for."
"Let me try again!"
Jun Changxiao did not intend to give up. He walked toward the Xuanyuan Divine Sword, but just as he reached out to touch it, he was sent flying like an electric shock.
"Sigh."
Jian Guixu looked up at the sky and sighed.
After waiting for countless years, he thought that he had finally met the fated one. In the end, reality gave him a ruthless blow.
Uncomfortable.
He wanted to cry.
"I don't believe it!"
Jun Changxiao rolled up his sleeves and rushed over again.
The camera turned and saw Gou Sheng lying on the ground, foaming at the mouth.
Clearly, he was not fated with the Xuanyuan Divine Sword. As for his sorry state, although it was partly because of the electric shock, it was more of the side effect of using the Unstoppable Blade.
…
"Senior."
"What's the girl's name?"
After a few days of recuperation, although Jun Changxiao was very weak, he could speak.
The Xuanyuan Divine Sword was hidden in the secret chamber. Because he was not fated to obtain it, he began to ask about the girl holding the sword. He even wondered if she knew the secret of how to grasp it.
Jian Guixu said, "The girl's name is Xi Jingxuan."
"Pfft!"
Jun Changxiao directly spat out all the tea in his mouth.
Jian Guixu reached out to wipe the tea on his face and asked in confusion, "Jun Patriarch, what's wrong with you?"
"Ding!"
The System imitated the prompt and said, "Xi Jingxuan's side task has been triggered."
"No … nothing!"
Jun Changxiao gradually calmed down and said to himself, "It should be just the same name, right?"
When Jian Guixu said the name, Gou Sheng immediately thought of the Palace Master of Miao Hua Palace, who was in charge of the sect in the Eternal World. But … Gu Xuanyuan's disciple had been sent out a long time ago. The age of the two did not match at all.
Same name.
It should be just the same name.
The System said, "Does the host still remember that Gu Hong Zhenren once said that Palace Master Xi is the Child of the Dimension?"
"What do you mean?"
"Gu Xuanyuan should be regarded as the Master of the Xuanyuan Realm. He even risked his life to protect it, and his disciple is … Think carefully, think carefully."
"…"
Jun Changxiao fell silent.
Do I need to think carefully? It's easy to figure it out with my toes!
"What are you waiting for?"
The System said, "Hurry back to the Eternal World and bring Palace Master Xi out. Maybe then you can control the Xuanyuan Divine Sword!"
Jun Changxiao was speechless and said, "I'm not even in a hurry to become the Emperor. Why are you, a eunuch?"
"I'm just worried about Palace Master Xi. Her interstellar travel with the host is almost like air."
"Wait!"
"Who are you calling a eunuch?"
