Twice Rejected
The crowd had heard such words a few times and they were already numb to it.
However, this time, their hearts were in turmoil because the person who spoke was the owner of Wanjian Pavilion. He also wanted to take Chu Xingyun as his last disciple.
The gazes of the Sword Masters froze and they all sighed in their hearts.
Their cultivations were very high, and they had all entered the Yin Yang Realm. In the eyes of ordinary people, they were like gods. Even the emperor of a dynasty had to bow down and worship them, not daring to speak loudly.
However, compared to Fan Wujie, they were insignificant.
Fan Wujie was the owner of Wanjian Pavilion. His cultivation had reached the Nirvana Realm and he was the true ruler of this vast region. Even in the entire Northern Wilderness Region, he had an important position.
Now, he had said that he wanted to take Chu Xingyun as his disciple. No one dared to oppose him, and no one could oppose him!
"The Pavilion Master's last disciple will not only receive countless cultivation resources, but his status will also not be lower than that of the Sword Masters. In the future, he can even inherit the position of the Pavilion Master and control the entire Wanjian Pavilion."
"Such conditions are too tempting. It's no different from attaining the Dao overnight. If I had such an opportunity, I would be willing to sacrifice decades of my lifespan."
Envious voices could be heard. The crowd's gazes gathered on Chu Xingyun. There was no longer any jealousy. Instead, they were all trying to please him, afraid that Chu Xingyun would hate them.
Chu Xingyun raised his head and stared at Fan Wujie, who had a gentle face. He shook his head and said, "Thank you, Pavilion Master and Sword Masters, for your kindness. I don't want to be your disciple for the time being."
When he said that, everyone was stunned. They thought that they were hallucinating. No one expected Chu Xingyun to reply in such a way and reject everyone, including Fan Wujie!
"Why?" Fan Wujie's expression was still warm, and his voice did not waver at all.
Chu Xingyun's voice was very clear. He was neither servile nor overbearing, and clearly passed into everyone's ears. "In my opinion, Sword Dao should be cultivated by oneself. If I become a disciple, I will inevitably slack off. I have just condensed my Sword Intent, and I still need to polish my foundation. Therefore, I don't want to become a disciple for the time being."
The crowd was surprised at first, but after hearing these words, many people frowned. They felt that Chu Xingyun was too arrogant. He had directly rejected Fan Wujie and insisted on cultivating by himself.
Could it be that he felt that his Sword Dao was superior to Fan Wujie's?
In an instant, quite a number of disdainful gazes were cast over. Expressions of disgust surfaced on their faces, and they no longer had the fawning expressions from earlier.
The various Sword Masters also looked at each other. Clearly, they had not expected Chu Xingyun to reply in such a way.
Fan Wujie looked at Chu Xingyun and suddenly laughed out loud. He said, "Since you are so determined, then fine. I will not force you."
He stretched out his hand, and a white light flew out and landed in front of Chu Xingyun.
This white light was an ancient golden sword. The sword's body was clean, and it emitted a sharp aura. Even though it was suspended in the air, it could still tear through the air. Its sharpness was extremely shocking.
"This sword is called the Mysterious Breaking Sword, and it is a three-striped King Weapon. Its main function is sharpness, and it is most suitable for your Aurora Sword Intent. Today, I will give this sword to you. I hope that you can cultivate it seriously and become a pillar of Wanjian Pavilion."
As he spoke, the Mysterious Breaking Sword emitted a low hum. It kept circling above Chu Xingyun's head, as if it wanted to recognize him as its master.
"After being rejected as a disciple, not only did he not get angry, he even took the initiative to give a sword. The Pavilion Master's magnanimity is indeed amazing. No wonder he can control the entire Wanjian Pavilion." The crowd looked at the Mysterious Breaking Sword and spoke with sincere admiration.
However, before they could finish speaking, Chu Xingyun stretched out his hand and pushed the Mysterious Breaking Sword back to Fan Wujie. He said, "I appreciate the Pavilion Master's kindness, but before I can completely control the Aurora Sword Intent, I am not willing to accept any help."
"How dare you!"
Chang Chixiao immediately shouted. "Luo Yun, how dare you reject the Pavilion Master's kindness again and again. Do you even care about the Pavilion Master and the Wanjian Pavilion?"
"No one can surpass the Pavilion Master's Tao of the Sword. Even the surface is enough for you to use for the rest of your life. However, you keep rejecting him. Do you think that your Tao of the Sword is better than the Pavilion Master's?" Chang Mingyang also stood out and directly put on a tall hat. He wanted to set a crime against Chu Xingyun and frame him in an unjust place.
Chu Xingyun's expression did not change. He said indifferently, "The Tao of the Sword has always been lonely. My every move is based on my heart. Moreover, what I say and do is what I do. It is not up to you to judge!"
"You …" Chang Chixiao was furious. He was about to shout when Fan Wujie stopped him. He looked deeply at Chu Xingyun and finally nodded heavily. "I am very pleased that you have such courage."
As he spoke, he pointed his finger and retrieved the Xuan Shattering Sword. He continued, "Starting from scratch is not necessarily a bad thing. Moreover, you are right. The Tao of the Sword has always been lonely. I hope that in the near future, you can surpass me and step into a higher realm."
After he finished speaking, Fan Wujie nodded at Chu Xingyun. His figure was like an illusion as he merged into the world and finally disappeared.
After Fan Wujie left, the entire place was silent for a moment before it calmed down.
The Sword Masters all looked at Chu Xingyun with strange expressions. Then, a few of them sighed and moved, leaving the place as well.
However, there were a few people who stayed. They stood at the top of the lonely peak and seemed to be thinking about something.
Yun Changqing paused and looked at the stunned crowd. He shouted at the right time, "The top ten have all left the Sword Cleansing Pool. Next, I will lead you to cleanse Wu Ling and condense your own Sword Essence."
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! Several disciples of the Wanjian Pavilion appeared and fell into the crowd. They immediately began to maintain order. The stunned crowd gradually recovered and looked at the Sword Cleansing Pool, no longer thinking about what had just happened.
Seeing that the atmosphere had returned to normal, Chu Xingyun breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, Xia Qingcheng walked in front of him and looked at him carefully. She frowned and said, "You rejected the Pavilion Master twice and even breathed a sigh of relief after that. Sometimes, I really don't understand what you are thinking. How could you miss such an opportunity?"
As she spoke, Xia Qingcheng shook her head. There was a hint of disappointment in her tone.
"Missed an opportunity? Maybe! " Chu Xingyun turned his head and looked in the direction where Fan Wujie had left. A cold light flashed in his dark eyes.
…
Wanjian Pavilion, in the deepest part of the mountains.
There was a pavilion here. The pavilion was in the shape of a sword and seemed to pierce through the clouds.
Whoosh!
Light flickered and Fan Wujie's slender figure gradually appeared. Finally, it became completely solid.
At this moment, his face no longer had the gentleness from before. His eyes were sunken and his gaze was as cold as the abyss. One look at him would make one's soul tremble and one's mind tremble.
"A fledgling brat. Not only did he reject me twice, he even dared to talk about the way of cultivation in front of me. How infuriating!"
Fan Wujie let out a furious roar. The sound waves were like waves, causing the entire pavilion to tremble. The mountain emitted a rustling sound as if it would collapse at any moment.
The Profound Shattering Sword appeared in front of him.
However, the Profound Shattering Sword did not emit a sharp aura. Instead, it gradually turned dark and indistinct. Finally, a gray stream of light shot out from the sword and entered Fan Wujie's body.
"I originally wanted to use the Profound Shattering Sword to keep an eye on that brat at all times. Who would have thought that he would be so stupid as to not even accept a King Weapon that was at his fingertips. However, this is also good …"
Fan Wujie no longer roared angrily. His entire being had calmed down. He said in a sinister voice, "If you want to train, I'll let you train in Wanjian Pavilion. With your unbearably stupid personality, you will definitely suffer setbacks in the future."
"When that time comes, I won't even need to show myself. You will kneel before me and cry, begging me to take you as my disciple!"
As he spoke, Fan Wu Jie's gaze turned even colder and gloomier.
