After leaving the lobby, Nie Tian entered the backyard of the city lord's residence and found a small yard.
After entering a room, Nie Tian asked Di Shitian to come out of the Nine Superbs.
"Nie Tian," Di Shitian looked at Nie Tian and felt that the latter had something to say, so he nodded and greeted him.
"Di Shitian, I have something to ask you," Nie Tian said without beating around the bush.
Seeing Di Shitian again, Nie Tian felt that the former was much calmer. There was a calmness beyond his age on his young face.
It seemed that what Monster Slayer said had affected Di Shitian quite a bit.
Di Shitian looked at Nie Tian and gestured for him to continue.
Nie Tian took a deep breath and asked, "Do you know about the Shenwu Sword Pagoda?"
"The Shenwu Sword Pagoda!" When Sakra heard these four words, his pupils actually shrank, and an unconcealable nervousness appeared on his indifferent face.
"Huh?" Nie Tian was surprised to see Di Shitian's reaction. It seemed that Di Shitian did know about the Shenwu Sword Pagoda.
It wasn't that strange. Di Shitian was a swordsman. How could he not know about the Shenwu Sword Pagoda?
But judging from his reaction, it seemed that he had something to do with the Shenwu Sword Pagoda.
"Nie Tian, why did you suddenly mention the Shenwu Sword Pagoda?" Di Shitian asked instead of answering Nie Tian's question.
"I need to save someone." Nie Tian nodded and told him everything. At the end, he said, "There are still thousands of years before the Evil Edge Sword Competition. I have to find a way to have the Divine Martial Sword Pagoda hold the competition in advance."
"The people from the Shenwu Sword Pagoda are stubborn. They won't bring forward the Evil Edge Sword Competition." Di Shitian frowned and said Coldly.
Nie Tian was stunned again. Then, his eyes lit up and he asked, "Di Shitian, is there a grudge between you and the Shenwu Sword Pagoda?"
Nie Tian sensed that Di Shitian was angry and unfriendly towards the Shenwu Sword Pagoda.
Di Shitian immediately became silent and looked out of the window. His expression fluctuated greatly as if he was thinking of many things.
Nie Tian watched from the side, not in a hurry.
After a while, Di Shitian calmed down a lot. He looked at Nie Tian and said, "The first master of the Shenwu Sword Pagoda, the one who left behind the legend of the Shenwu Sword, is my senior brother."
"Senior brother?" Nie Tian exclaimed. He had never thought that Di Shitian and the Shenwu Sword Pagoda would have such a relationship!
But what Di Shitian said next surprised Nie Tian even more.
"The Shenwu Sword Pagoda was created by my senior brother and me," Di Shitian nodded and said.
"I …" Nie Tian's face froze and he was speechless.
He had never thought that Di Shitian was one of the founders of the Shenwu Sword Pagoda!
Suddenly, Nie Tian thought of something and said, "Di Shitian, you are the first Swordmaster of the Shenwu Sword Pagoda!"
Guiwu Kuang Sha had said that the Shenwu Sword Pagoda had two sword masters, the Divine Sword Master and the Martial Sword Master.
Since the first Divine Sword Master of the Shenwu Sword Pagoda was Di Shitian's senior brother and Di Shitian was the founder of the Shenwu Sword Pagoda, his identity was self-evident. The first Swordmaster of the Martial Sword!
"Mm." Di Shitian nodded and put on a wry smile. "Back when my senior brother and I created the Shenwu Sword Pagoda, he was the Divine Sword Master and I was the Swordmaster of the Martial Sword. However, we had different opinions on how to develop the Shenwu Sword Pagoda, so I left the pagoda in a fit of anger.
"I haven't seen my senior brother since then. And … "
Speaking up to this point, Sakra's expression obviously changed. His eyes trembled slightly, and he was actually very nervous.
Nie Tian frowned, not knowing what Di Shitian was trying to say.
"And I did something that dealt a heavy blow to the Shenwu Sword Pagoda." Di Shitian closed his eyes and let out a long sigh. "Nie Tian, the sword techniques you saw in the Tomb of the Swords and Souls were from the swordsmen of the Shenwu Sword Pagoda."
Nie Tian's eyes widened and his expression froze when he heard Di Shitian's words.
He finally understood that the tens of thousands of swordsmen in the Tomb of the Swords and Souls were from the Shenwu Sword Pagoda!
This meant that Di Shitian had killed tens of thousands of swordsmen from the Shenwu Sword Pagoda!
Back then, Di Shitian had done everything he could to break through to the Sage State. He had even killed so many swordsmen from the Shenwu Sword Pagoda.
The Shenwu Sword Pagoda used to be more powerful than the Sacred Parliament. It was because Di Shitian had killed so many swordsmen that the Shenwu Sword Pagoda declined.
Although Di Shitian was the founder of the Shenwu Sword Pagoda, he had done terrible things to the Shenwu Sword Pagoda.
No wonder Di Shitian was so nervous when Nie Tian mentioned the Shenwu Sword Pagoda.
"I made too many mistakes to break through to the Sage State back then." Di Shitian let out a long sigh. He looked pained.
At this moment, his state of mind was already very different from before. He had already realized how wrong he had been in the past.
"Di Shitian, let bygones be bygones." Nie Tian took a deep breath and comforted him.
No matter what, the past could not be changed. He could only look forward.
Sakra let out a long breath, nodded slightly, and said, "Nie Tian, the Evil Edge Sword Duel was decided by my senior martial brother years ago. He's the supreme existence in the Divine Martial Sword Pagoda. No one will go against his words. It's impossible for you to bring forward the Sword of the Evil Edge Competition! "
Nie Tian frowned, but then he smiled and said, "Sakra, if I can't convince the people from the Divine Martial Sword Pagoda, what about you?"
"Me?" Sakra was startled. Then, he became nervous and said, "The people from the Divine Martial Sword Pagoda won't believe my identity. Even if I can convince them that I'm the first Sword Master of the Divine Martial Sword Pagoda, they won't listen to me and will hate me."
Nie Tian smiled and said, "Di Shitian, you don't have to reveal your identity. I believe that your sword skills are enough to make the two swordmasters of the Shenwu Sword Pagoda change."
"What do you mean?" Di Shitian was surprised again. He didn't understand what Nie Tian was saying.
"I'm going to the Sea of Evil Edge. You'll know then." Nie Tian smiled mysteriously and said, "I think you want the Shenwu Sword Pagoda to develop and stand at the top of the nine realms again. This is your chance."
Sakra looked at Nie Tian. Although he had doubts in his heart, he didn't voice them out. Instead, he nodded and said, "Nie Tian, no matter what you want to do, I will fully cooperate with you."
"Many thanks," Nie Tian said with a faint smile. Then, he told Sakra to return to the Nine Superbs.
Di Shitian believed that Nie Tian wouldn't do anything to harm the Shenwu Sword Pagoda.
