As someone who loved swords, this precious treasure was naturally something that he yearned for even in his dreams. Although it was currently a broken sword, no one could deny its might.
"Sect Master, why did you pass the sect's treasure to me?"
Su Yun was not in a hurry to receive the sword, but looked at the old Sect Leader seriously and asked.
"Compared to the Lotus Star Sword Sect, I think this sword is more suitable for you."
The Old Sect Master said.
"Why do you say that?"
"Do you know what a sword is used for?"
"Murder?"
"No, it's to protect."
The Old Sect Master shook his head.
"Then why not leave it in the Lotus Star Sword Sect and use it to protect the sect?"
"Guarding is not the responsibility of the sword, but the responsibility of the sword user. Only by using it can we achieve the goal of guarding, and now, this Lotus Star Sword has brought us more danger than guarding, so I plan to pass it to you, or rather, let you bring it away from the Lotus Star Sword Sect." The Old Sect Leader said.
Hearing that, Su Yun was startled.
After thinking for a moment, he seemed to have vaguely understood the old Sect Master's intentions.
"Today's calamity, was caused by the Lotus Star Sword, in fact, not only today, in the past, when my Sword Sect encountered a calamity, it was also because of this sword. Back then, the second generation Sect Leader brought this sword to roam the four seas, sweeping through the eight wastelands, defeating all the heroes in the world, and defeating all the supreme expert in the world. Everyone thought that it was the work of the Lotus Star Sword, but in reality, no matter which supreme expert it is, it is definitely not just his magic tool that is strong. Otherwise, why is my Lotus Star Sword Sect still at such a scale after so many years? "
The Old Sect Leader's expression revealed an unconcealable vicissitude, and said: "After today, I have already gained enlightenment, and continue to guard this Lotus Star Sword, it would be better to pass it to someone who needs it, and you, Su Yun, compared to me, you will definitely need this sword more, so today, in front of all the disciples, I will pass this sword to you, I hope you will not refuse."
Hearing that, Su Yun did not speak for a long time.
The old Sect Leader took a step forward, both hands holding onto the treasure sword, he looked at Su Yun and slowly spoke.
"The sword is right here. It's fine if you don't want to accept it. It's all up to fate."
With that, he stood there quietly, as if waiting for Su Yun's decision.
Su Yun looked at the spotless white sword. He did not know why, but he was strangely calm. He did not immediately accept the sword, nor did he immediately reject it.
But after waiting for about three breaths, he still reached out and grabbed the hilt of the sword.
"I am willing to accept this Lotus Star Sword." He said seriously.
The Hierarch nodded in satisfaction, and a smile finally appeared on his face.
The followers below were completely confused.
The higher ups of the Lotus Star Sword Sect, led by Bu Ming, were even more restless. Finally, a deacon could not help but speak up.
"Sect Leader, what did you mean by your words just now? Let Protector Su bring the sword away from the Lotus Star Sword Sect? Could it be that you wish for this sword … "
"Not bad." The old Sect Leader nodded his head, and said indifferently: "The reason Protector Su joined our sect is to repel the enemy, you all know his purpose in coming to the Linglong Mountain, he cannot stay in the sect for long, he will naturally leave in the future."
"Since that's the case, why did you pass this sword to Master Su Yun? Is it because he saved our sect? "
"If that's what I mean, would you feel that it's inappropriate?" The old sect master asked.
When everyone heard this, they were speechless.
In fact, just based on Su Yun's contributions, it was indeed reasonable to accept the sword. After all, without Su Yun, the sword and the sword technique would have long belonged to the Black Hawk Sect, why would it be here? However, if the Lotus Star Sword Sect did not have these treasures, wouldn't this sect only exist in name? Everyone knew that the sect protecting treasure of the Lotus Star Sword Sect was the Lotus Star Sword and its sword techniques, and this was also what the Lotus Star Sword Sect relied on to stand tall in the Linglong Mountain. Without these two items, how would the Lotus Star Sword Sect establish itself in the future?
However, the old Sect Leader spoke again to reassure everyone.
Whether the Lotus Star Sword exists in the Lotus Star Sword Sect or not, that is not important. What is important is that all of us have the teachings of the Lotus Star in our hearts, and never forget the teachings of the Lotus Star at all times. That is enough, after so many years, we have not been able to bring the Lotus Star Sword to greater heights, why not give it to someone who is fated? Furthermore, I believe that even if Protector Su Yun leaves the sect, he will never forget the Lotus Star Sword Sect. "
The old Sect Leader said in a sincere tone.
Although this was his reasoning, it was very pertinent. After some people heard this, the dissatisfaction in their hearts lessened by a lot.
There was only one sword, so what did it matter if it was in the sect or not? Furthermore, if the Lotus Star Sword was in the sect, it would only bring more disasters to the Lotus Star Sword Sect, causing the sect to never be able to be at peace. The development of a sect would never rely on a magic treasure.
The old Sect Leader looked at everyone present seriously. When some people's faces were filled with reluctance and sadness, his face would reveal helplessness and disappointment. When some people's faces were extremely calm and indifferent, his face would reveal a gratified smile.
When Su Yun saw the change in the old Sect Leader's face, he immediately understood.
So it turned out that the reason why the old Sect Leader taught him this sword was not only because the Lotus Star Sword Sect was unable to promote this sword, but also because it was used as a medium to test the mental state of every Sword Sect member.
"Alright, I still have something to discuss with Su Yun alone. If you all have nothing else to say, you can all leave."
The old Sect Leader waved his hand and said.
"Disciple will take his leave."
Everyone called out in unison as they slowly left the Lotus Star Hall.
When the last person left the Lotus Star Hall, only Su Yun and the old Sect Leader were left in the palace.
The hall was extremely quiet. Su Yun looked at the old Sect Leader, not knowing what else he wanted to do.
"Are you thinking that the Lotus Star Sword has brought so many disasters to my Lotus Star Sword Sect? If I pass it to you now, it will only bring you disaster, right?" At this time, the old Sect Leader spoke.
"I didn't think so." Su Yun said.
"Oh? "Why?"
"If that's the case, you can just give it to the Black Hawk Cult. There's no need to guard these two items to the death."
"That's right." The old Sect Leader nodded his head, and said indifferently: "In fact, I already knew why the Black Hawk Cult Leader wanted these two items …" He paced back and forth in the hall a few times, and slowly said: "A few years ago, I received news that the Black Hawk Cult Leader had somehow found the remaining scrolls of my Lotus Star Sword Art. Later on, I found out that his scrolls were made from my sect."
"Mold?" Hearing that, Su Yun's eyes widened: "Could it be that my sect's Lotus Star Sword Art is not incomplete?"
"Back when it was in the hands of the previous Sect Leader, the missing part of the Lotus Star Sword Art had already been recovered. It was just that in order to prevent others from spying on it, I did not reveal this news." The old Sect Leader shook his head and sighed: "The current Spirit Cultivator has long lost the essence that a cultivator should have. They have stepped onto the path of cultivation, and their goal is only for the sake of martial power, not to pursue the unity of nature and the unity of man and nature. They have bitterly cultivated for the sake of power, for the sake of greed, and there are many such people in my Lotus Star Sword Sect, so, I did not say it out loud, not only did I not announce this news, I even wanted to send the Lotus Star Sword out of the sect."
Hearing that, Su Yun was startled, then laughed bitterly and shook his head: "If that's the case, then Sect Leader, you have entrusted the wrong person, in fact, my original intention of cultivating was only for revenge, for martial power, and is not much different from those Spirit Cultivator s."
"No, there's a difference." Without waiting for Su Yun to finish speaking, the old Sect Leader interrupted him.
Su Yun was startled.
However, the old Sect Leader did not explain, and slowly opened his mouth: "The Black Hawk Cult Leader obtained an unknown piece of Outer Sky Black Iron, this black iron is a top quality material, it can be used to forge divine weapons, the Black Hawk Cult Leader named it the Black Hawk Black Iron, with the intention of using it to repair the Lotus Star Sword, and with the Lotus Star Sword Art, he would be able to repeat the glory of the current second generation Sect Leader, but his thoughts were too simple, with just these two items, he would not be able to reach that level, and even if the second generation Sect Leader was still alive, it would still be impossible for him to reach that level. Su Yun, I know that you are anxious to find your parents, but please wait a few days, during this time, I will teach you all of the Lotus Star Sword Art, and also, I will tell you the method to repair the Lotus Star Sword as well.
"What?"
Su Yun was shocked.
Repair the Lotus Star Sword Art? Obtain the complete inheritance of the Lotus Star Sword Art?
"Why is that?"
Su Yun was completely confused.
He could not guess what the old Sect Leader was thinking at all. Even if he had stopped the Black Hawk Cult's plan, there was no need to do this, right? These two were the representatives of the Lotus Star Sword Sect.
However, the old Sect Leader did not give any explanation. He only took out a white book from his bosom and handed it over to Su Yun.
The book was not some peerless secret manual, but something that everyone in the Lotus Star Sword Sect had.
Lotus Star's teachings.
This was something that everyone had to read after joining the Lotus Star Sword Sect.
"You have inherited the essence of the sword, and are a qualified swordsman, so I will pass these two items down to you. You know better than me that the sword is used to protect, not to kill, so you can use these two items well. I only hope that after you leave the sect, you can inherit the teachings of the Lotus Star, and never forget the teachings. If that's the case, I will be satisfied."
The old Sect Leader did not say any beautiful or profound words. He only spoke his thoughts in a simple and plain manner.
Su Yun listened to it in a daze, but after listening to it, his heart surged with waves that were difficult to calm down.
Looking at the white book, he stood there quietly for a long time. In the end, he extended his hand and received the teachings …
Seeing that, the old Sect Leader was comforted, he patted Su Yun's shoulder, and then walked out of the hall.
"The Lotus Star Sword Art is extremely special, there are only three moves, and learning it all depends on one's comprehension, if it is fast, it will take three months, if it is slow, it will take forever, the people in the sect will only be able to learn the first move, and no one in the sect will know that there is a third move, Su Yun, I will pass the Lotus Star Sword Art to you now, follow me."
"Yes, Sect Leader."
Su Yun nodded, he looked at the Lotus Star Sword in his hand, turned and walked out of the hall with the sword in his hand.
