The sky had just brightened, and the gentle sunlight shone on the earth, causing the white snow to emit a silver glow.
Ye Qinghan settled the giant tiger down and brought Ye Mengxi and Wang Shi to the Sky Sword Sect to test the attitude of the Sky Sword Sect and his so-called grandfather.
Qin Zheng followed behind with a group of people secretly protecting them. Now that Ye Qinghan was their big client, they couldn't let their guard down.
The Sky Sword Sect was located on a spiritual mountain more than ten miles away from the city. It occupied eight mountains with dense spiritual energy and formed a huge second-grade sect. It was equivalent to a Duke's Mansion, but the Duke's Mansion had the backing of the Azure Sun Kingdom, while the Sky Sword Sect didn't.
The Sky Sword Sect was protected by a faintly discernible spiritual array that emitted spiritual energy fluctuations. This array consumed one mid-grade spirit crystal a day, so the Sky Sword Sect didn't activate it during safe periods. After all, spirit crystals were scarce.
Spirit crystals were like transparent stones filled with spiritual energy. The higher the grade, the more transparent the spirit crystal was and the more abundant the spiritual energy it contained. A low-grade spirit crystal was worth three hundred gold taels! Mid-grade spirit crystals were worth five thousand gold taels. As for high-grade spirit crystals, there was no market for them. Ordinary cultivators couldn't exchange spirit crystals for gold.
Spirit crystals were the only currency used by cultivators! If a first-grade sect discovered a spirit crystal vein, it could develop into a second-grade sect within three years, and a third-grade sect within ten years!
However, spirit crystal veins weren't that easy to discover. There were only two small spirit crystal veins in the entire kingdom, and both were controlled by the royal family of Prince Green Sun.
Ye Qinghan brought the two closer to the Sky Sword Sect. Wang Shi was even more frightened. Her legs were trembling, and she couldn't stand steadily.
The former number one beauty of Jiangning County was now in such dire straits. It was a pity. Even if she regained her looks with the Face Restoration Pill, her cultivation from back then would never return.
"Mother, don't be afraid. It's just the Sky Sword Sect. Even if I have to fight today, I'll fight my way into the Broken Sword Peak. If grandfather doesn't want to see you, you can also resolve one of your worries." Ye Qinghan held Wang Shi's aged hand and said in a deep voice.
"Don't make things too difficult for your grandfather. If it wasn't for him, your father and I would have died long ago. We wouldn't have been able to escape." "As for what the other peaks of the Sky Sword Sect say, we'll just have to endure it. Don't get into a conflict with them."
Ye Qinghan nodded. He didn't want to make things too difficult for the Wang Clan. After all, the Wang Clan still had deep-rooted feelings for the Heavenly Sword Sect.
On the Sky Sword Sect's Martial Practice Field, several hundred disciples at the seventh or eighth layer of the Body Refinement Realm were practicing their swordsmanship. Their movements were neat and uniform. The foundation of a second-grade sect was clearly displayed. Any random young disciple would be able to sweep through a small place like Myriad Mountain Town.
The Heavenly Sword Sect's Sword-Bearing Elder, Chen Changsheng, nodded in satisfaction as he watched his disciple bitterly cultivating. He paced back and forth, correcting his disciple's mistakes.
"That's right. Everyone, cultivate well. The Heavenly Sword Sect's three-year competition is about to begin. As long as you can become an elite disciple, you can enter the Heavenly Sword Sect's paradise to cultivate for three months. Everyone, cherish this opportunity!" Chen Changsheng said in a low voice.
"What? Can all the elite disciples cultivate in the Blessed Enclave for three months this year? "
"Three months, that's equivalent to cultivating in the outside world for three years. I've heard that any disciple who can walk out of the Blessed Enclave alive will definitely be able to reach the Blood Ignition Realm within a year!"
The Heavenly Sword Sect was in an uproar. The Spirit Qi in the Blessed Enclave was more than ten times that of the outside world. Although it was very dangerous, there were opportunities everywhere. Finding ancient treasures or spirit herbs was equivalent to ten years of bitter cultivation! Every disciple of a large sect wanted to enter their own Blessed Enclave to train.
"That's right. This year, the Heavenly Sword Sect is preparing to accept twelve elite disciples. Any disciple who can enter the Elite Ranking will be placed in an important position by the Heavenly Sword Sect! There's still a month before the Elite Ranking Examination begins. Once the examination ends, the Blessed Enclave will open. Seize this opportunity and you'll all be at the top! "Chen Changsheng encouraged.
"Yes, Lord Elder! We definitely won't disappoint Lord Elder! "
Everyone hugged their swords and roared. They were abnormally excited.
"Hehe, of the ten elites, Senior Brother Lin Hong will definitely be one of them. In addition to the eight Senior Brothers from the main peaks and the Senior Sister from Jade Maiden Peak, we're actually all fighting for three spots. However, one of the spots is mine!" A thin and weak looking boy proudly said.
"Yuan Hong, you think too highly of yourself. You're only at the early stage of the 8th layer of Body Refinement and your Void Piercing Sword Art is only at the 6th layer. There are plenty of people stronger than you. Do you have the confidence to enter the top twelve?"
"That's right. Maybe I, Kuang Hu, can enter the Elite Ranking!"
There were only twelve spots in the Elite Ranking and every spot was extremely precious. Everyone wanted to fight for it. Yuan Hong stood out and everyone ridiculed him, not giving him any face. The youth called Yuan Hong's expression changed and he angrily glared at the crowd.
"Who said there were only three spots? There are four spots. Is there anyone from Broken Sword Peak who can obtain the Elite Ranking? Hahaha, maybe they'll be disbanded this year. "A handsome and feminine youth walked out from the crowd with a face full of ridicule.
"Xuan Fei's second senior is right. Broken Sword Peak is about to be disbanded and their senior is only at the 7th layer of Body Refinement. How can he obtain the Elite Ranking? As long as no Elite Ranking appears this year, Broken Sword Peak will only exist in name. It's better to disband and rebuild. "
Once Xuan Fei walked out, a dozen or so young disciples surrounded him. Their faces were full of flattery and they were not arrogant at all.
Xuan Fei, the second senior of the main peak, Heaven's Sword Peak. His cultivation level was at the 9th layer of Body Refinement. He was only second to the senior of the other main peaks. Of course, Broken Sword Peak was excluded. Because in these years, Broken Sword Peak had already existed in name. If it weren't for a few loyal disciples guarding there, Broken Sword Peak would have been disbanded a long time ago.
Xuan Fei was the one who targeted Broken Sword Peak the most. In his opinion, he was completely qualified to be the senior of a main peak. But a seventh layer of Body Refinement trash from Broken Sword Peak occupied one of the spots. He was unwilling to accept this and every two to three days, he would pick on the disciples of Broken Sword Peak.
"This year there will be thirteen Elites. One of them will be elected as the senior of the eight peaks. Everyone, do your best …" Chen Chang Sheng had a smile on his face. Seeing everyone's high morale, he felt a little proud. But before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by someone.
"Report! Three people came to the foot of the mountain. A sixteen or seventeen year old youth, a five or six year old girl, and a fifty or sixty year old woman. They said they came to visit the mountain. Elder, should we let them in? "A young disciple respectfully ran to the practice field. When he saw Chen Chang Sheng, he immediately bowed and asked.
Being interrupted, Chen Chang Sheng's expression was a little bad. He asked impatiently, "Did they say where they came from? My dignified second-grade sect is not a place that any Tom, Dick, or Harry can visit. "
"They only said their surname is Ye. They said they are related to Broken Sword Peak …" The disciple guarding the gate quickly said.
"Surname Ye? Broken Sword Peak? A fifty or sixty year old woman, a sixteen or seventeen year old youth, and a five or six year old girl? " Chen Chang Sheng frowned. A person flashed through his mind. He couldn't help but say angrily, "Could it be that trash's bastard and Wang Xian 'er, the traitor?"
Once Chen Chang Sheng thought of Ye Lao Qi and Wang Xian 'er, his mood instantly sank. He flicked his sleeves and walked towards the foot of Broken Sword Peak.
When the disciples saw this, they knew there would be a good show to watch. They all followed closely behind, ready to watch a good show.
When the group arrived at the foot of the mountain, Chen Chang Sheng looked at Wang Shi and Ye Qinghan. His eyes revealed a trace of killing intent and ferocity.
"It is indeed you and his bastard! If you dare to return to Heaven's Sword Sect, I will clean up the sect today! "Chen Chang Sheng coldly reprimanded.
"Elder Chen, my child and I did not come with ill intentions. We just wanted to see my father. If we can't go to Heaven's Sword Sect, please inform him." Wang Shi quickly said.
"Hehe, your skin is really thick. You still dare to come and see Peak Master Wang Xuan? It's good that you didn't anger him to death! " Chen Chang Sheng sneered. He waved his hand and said to the disciples behind him, "Men, capture these three people and escort them to the Duke's Mansion. Let the Duke deal with them …"
Pa …
A white light flashed and a claw mark appeared on Chen Chang Sheng's dignified face. It was dripping with blood and a piece of flesh was almost torn off.
The parrot on Ye Qinghan's shoulder raised its little claw and lightly blew on it. It shook its head and said, "Tsk tsk … such thick skin. This divine bird actually didn't tear it apart."
Chen Chang Sheng was stunned. He reached out and touched his burning face. His hand was covered in blood. He couldn't help but fly into a rage. His killing intent soared and he stared at Ye Qinghan and the parrot on his shoulder.
"You dared to let your lowly bird sneak attack me! Like master, like pet. Both of you are so lowly. Today, this old man will skin you and this rotten bird alive … "
Another resounding slap, shocking the heavens and earth and making ghosts and gods weep. Chen Chang Sheng spun around a few times in place, his head was dizzy and he almost fainted from this slap.
"This is only a warning. If you dare to speak rudely again, I will take your life!" Ye Qinghan said coldly to Chen Chang Sheng. It was as if he hadn't moved at all. His figure moved and he returned to his original position.
Chen Chang Sheng was completely stunned. He had been slapped in the face again and again, and one of them was actually a palm-sized bird! The anger in his heart was so dense that it almost materialized.
The disciples of Heaven's Sword Sect were also stunned. Although the Sword-Bearing Elder was only an outer sect elder, his cultivation wasn't bad. He was at least at the middle stage of the Blood Ignition Realm. However, he had been slapped twice in a row. They were somewhat unable to accept it.
Shua …
In order to curry favor with Chen Chang Sheng, twenty or so young disciples instantly surrounded Ye Qinghan and the other two. Xuan Fei was at the front, pointing his sword at Ye Qinghan.
"You dare to sneak attack an elder of Heaven's Sword Sect? You're courting death! Kneel down and kowtow to me and admit your wrongs. Today, this young master will chop off your arms and legs and give you a quick death. " Xuan Fei's arrogance soared to the heavens. He didn't put Ye Qinghan in his eyes at all. Moreover, they were at the foot of Heaven's Sword Sect's mountain and there were so many fellow disciples by his side. So what if Ye Qinghan was strong?
"Hahaha … for more than ten years, no one has dared to hit this old man. You are the first!" The cold flames in Chen Chang Sheng's eyes almost rushed out of his eyes. He stared at Ye Qinghan, his killing intent was self-evident. He laughed coldly and cruelly.
"Are you blind? I am the first one to hit you. You're really despicable. Have you forgotten so quickly? "The parrot scolded insolently.
Ye Qinghan's lips curled up, revealing a trace of ridicule. He was also amused by the parrot. Little Meng Xi was even more so, giggling.
Chen Chang Sheng's face immediately turned the color of a pig's liver, alternating between green and purple. His whole body trembled in anger, his finger trembled as he pointed at the parrot on Ye Qinghan's shoulder, wishing he could skin it.
