“Junior Brother Han, where have you been all these days?”
“Junior Brother, don’t lie to me.”
“Junior Brother Han, cheer up, and win some honor for our Pure Yang Peak. If you get a good ranking, both your sect elder and I will be very pleased.” “If you make it to the top three, your Sect elder will give you a treasure.” Han Ye’s mind was flooded with all the exhortative words of Senior Sister Shen and various memories, all surged up like a tide.
The bad news about his Senior Sister’s disappearance left him stunned for a long time.
Just a few days ago, they had made a pact to celebrate together if he managed to secure one of the top three spots for Pure Yang Peak…
The disciples of Ziwei Peak around him were also shocked to hear this news with murmurs of discussion echoing throughout.
“Even Elder Gai, the main elder of Pure Yang Peak, has disappeared?”
“It seems so. I heard from a brother at another main peak that quite a few direct disciples have received this mission.”
“From the looks of it, Demon Cultivators are indeed a major threat to us Cultivators!”
Seeing Han Ye fall into a stupor, Chu Xianyu waved her hand in front of him.
“Han Ye… Han Ye, are you okay?”
Han Ye snapped back to reality, looked at Elder Yu, and asked in utter confusion:
“May I ask Elder, what’s going on? How did my master and my senior sister suddenly disappear?”
Yu Linglong hesitated for a moment, then explained, “It all started with that mission you took on. The Ghoul Sect token your sister submitted confirmed our suspicions that the Demon Cultivators in Qingyun State were all Ghoul Sect’s work. A mid-level Cave Heavens level demon sect dared to challenge our Dragon Sparrow Sect. The sect ordered to wipe out this sect. As a result, Elder Gai was given the task to lead a team and investigate the matter. During the investigation, numerous discoveries were made and reported to the sect, and some direct disciples were dispatched.”
“Who would have expected that they would all suddenly lose contact.”
On hearing this, Han Ye looked shocked.
It was the task he had completed earlier.
The Demon Cultivator with the Soul Suppressing Banner had triggered a cascade of events. The sect planned to wipe out the Ghoul Sect, hence his master had left the sect and Pei Liekong temporarily took charge of the affairs of Pure Yang Peak.
New discoveries were subsequently made, leading to the summoning of the sect’s direct disciples to investigate in depth. Clearly, they encountered some sort of accident.
Unexpectedly, he had been the one to set off this butterfly effect. Chu Xianyu also thought back to the mission they had carried out half a year ago. She had not expected that a demon sect was secretly meddling in that mission.
Liu Chengfeng, who was nearby, sighed heavily when he heard about the disappearance of many true disciples, “Among the many true disciples, there should also be Shen Yuxiang, right? She was defeated by me in the sect’s Big Competition last year. Who could have imagined that now her life and death are uncertain. Life is indeed unpredictable.”
Seeing Han Ye’s dispirited look, Yu Linglong, feeling sorry for him, said: “Now, there are many vacancies for the elder disciples of Pure Yang Peak You can stay and cultivate in my Ziwei Peak. The sect master and grand elder have taken over the matter. We will know the result in a few days.”
“I understand.”
Han Ye took a deep breath and forced himself to accept the reality. Elder Yu looked at the noisy disciples and sternly said, “Enough, stop your noise and continue practicing your sword. The final decision will be made by the sect master, it’s not your place to worry about it.”
“Should we continue practicing the sword?”
Seeing something wrong with Han Ye’s condition, Chu Xianyu asked softly. Looking up, Han Ye could see worry in Chu Xianyu’s eyes through her white veil.
She was clearly very concerned about his condition.
“Why not? Of course, I will continue.”
Han Ye knew well that with his current cultivation level, he couldn’t do anything. He deemed it unrealistic to entertain thoughts like avenging his senior sister or leaving the sect to seek the truth.
He was just a Qi Cultivator.
What he could do was to keep getting stronger.
Chu Xianyu and Han Ye came to an open space, where she pulled out a common spiritual sword from her Storage Ring. The sword looked ordinary, nothing more than a low-grade magic treasure.
“This is the flying sword given to me by Ziwei Peak. I thought it was too shabby, so I’ve been keeping it idle. You can practice with it first.”
“Clang!”
Han Ye took over the sword, and the sword blade slowly tremored in the sheath with a crisp sound, residual traces of Chu Xianyu’s sword qi lingering on it. He held the spiritual sword and stared at the blade, losing himself in thought. Although he had picked up quite a few sword-related attributes, he was just someone who knew how to use a sword, far from being proficient.
All the attributes he possessed were the same. Picking them up meant he had learned, mastered, and owned them.
But he could only use them, he was not skilled and did not master them well, and often could not realize the true potential of the attributes.
The real reason he came to Ziwei Peak was to practice his swordsmanship and sword intent to the ultimate level.
“Do you know a little bit of swordsmanship, or you have no clue at all?”
Instead of drawing her sword, Chu Xianyu patiently asked.
“I know a little bit, not much.”
“Show me some sword moves.”
Chu Xianyu gave him an encouraging look, decided to assess Han Ye’s skills first.
Han Ye stood stably with the spirit sword in his hand and felt that muscle memory gradually took over his body.
Without hesitating, he drew his sword, stepped into the center of the open space, and rested his hand on the hilt.
He had seen Chu Xianyu’s swordsmanship, which was always a sure kill with one hit, very powerful, no fancy moves, and no special techniques. He couldn’t do anything fancy, and it didn’t seem to have much effect either.
