The Ancestor Has Fallen?

As he spoke, Hua Shisan glanced at Wuxin and Great Sage.

His pupils twitched almost imperceptibly.

Something was off about them.

However, no questions were asked.

His gaze fell on Zhang Xuanchen, and he smiled:

"May I ask what brings Zhang Family Head to my Nine Splendor Sword Sect?"

He didn't believe Zhang Xuanchen had brought Luo Lingshuang along for a visit.

There must be something they want from you.

Zhang Xuanchen stepped forward and respectfully said, "Senior Hua has discerning eyes."

I have indeed come here with a request.

When the senior attended the wedding of the junior and Shuang'er, he left a letter.

The letter said that you wish to take my clan's Xuan Ce as your disciple.

The younger generation guessed that the senior might have the Yaoyang Sword Leaf Grass.

"Then I dared to come and exchange."

Upon hearing Zhang Xuanchen's words, Hua Shisan did not show any surprise on his face.

He had already deduced several reasons why Zhang Xuanchen had come here when he arrived.

Naturally, the heavenly materials and earthly treasures needed to unlock the Star Radiance Sword Body are also among them.

He slowly shook his head and said:

"I will not exchange it for anyone other than myself."

However, the Yaoyang Sword Leaf Grass is not found within the Nine Splendor Sword Sect.

Of course, if Zhang Xuance were to become my disciple...

"I can promise you that I will gather the heavenly materials and earthly treasures to activate the Star Radiance Sword Body within two months. What do you say?"

Upon hearing this, a hint of disappointment and struggle flashed across Zhang Xuanchen's face.

After a long pause, he said:

I will consider your meaning, senior, and I will convey it to Xuan Ce after I return to my clan.

Whatever choice he makes, the younger generation will support him.

It was heartbreaking to watch as the clan's Heavenly Talent joined the ranks of other factions.

But as painful as it may be, Zhang Xuance's future was of utmost importance.

It's already dragged on for so many years, it can't be delayed any longer.

Upon hearing this, Hua Shisan laughed heartily.

"Haha, even though they were reluctant, they still made this choice."

"The Zhang Family Head is truly a remarkable person."

Zhang Xuanchen gave a bitter smile, "There's nothing I can do; I've been selfish for so many years."

We can't keep being selfish forever.

This is unfair to Xuan Ce's cousin.

His talent should not be overlooked.

If anyone's to blame, it's my Zhang Family for being incompetent.

"After all these years, I still haven't been able to gather heavenly materials and earthly treasures to awaken my sword body."

At this point, Zhang Xuanchen let out a heavy sigh.

It's all fate.

He then clasped his hands in a fist and said, "Senior, I apologize for disturbing you this time."

We have been away from our tribe for three years, and we are eager to return home.

"I will bring Shuang'er to visit your clan when I have time in the future."

"Wait," Hua Shisan interrupted.

"I have two pieces of news that I believe will be of great interest to you."

Before Zhang Xuanchen could speak, she took out an Image Recording Stone from her Storage Ring.

The image displayed on the Image Recording Stone depicts Zhang Chongxian cleaving through the Cloud Fluff with a single sword strike.

The scene of rushing into the clouds and disappearing from sight.

Noticing Zhang Xuanchen's questioning look, Hua Shisan spoke up:

You've probably heard of "Yunjin Barren Ruins".

That Sword Mountain is a notorious Desperate Land in the Yunjin Barren Ruins.

It is named Sky Scar Sword Mountain.

Your Ancestor, True Person Yaojian, broke through the clouds several years ago and stepped into the Land of Certain Death Sky Scar Sword Mountain — Sky Scar Apex!

At this moment, all the major powers, including myself, believed that True Person Yaojian had already perished.

"What!" Upon hearing this, Zhang Xuanchen froze on the spot.

At that moment, his mind seemed to explode.

I was surrounded by a buzzing sound.

When he learned that activating the Star Radiance Sword Body required the Yaoyang Sword Leaf Grass, he investigated the Yunjin Barren Ruins.

They were naturally aware of the legends Sky Scar Sword Mountain from tens of thousands of years ago.

"The Ancestor has fallen?"

No!

That's impossible!

How could our Ancestor be so foolish? How could he possibly reach the Sky Scar Apex?

Zhang Xuanchen shook his head frantically, his eyes bloodshot.

Then, as if he had thought of something.

"The Feather Immortal Sect! It must be the Feather Immortal Sect!"

Our Ancestor must have suffered humiliation at the Feather Immortal Sect!

I should have thought of that sooner... sob...

I should have thought of that sooner!

Zhang Xuanchen knelt in the void, his eyes vacant, as scenes of his past interactions with Zhang Chongxian flashed through his mind!

Tears streamed down my face uncontrollably.

She let out a low sob.

"It was my fault!

It's all my fault.

I was too naive, thinking that with Elder Dan by my side, the Feather Immortal Sect would certainly not dare to humiliate our Ancestor.

Ah...

The Ancestor was very concerned about his reputation; he must have been humiliated by the Feather Immortal Sect while Elder Dan was refining pills.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be possible!

That's impossible!

"Brother Chen..." Luo Lingshuang felt very sorry for Zhang Xuanchen when she saw him crying like this.

Zhang Xuanchen had always been optimistic and confident.

As the leader of a clan, he would never exhibit such a weak and insignificant demeanor.

Now they're actually showing it off in front of outsiders.

Brother Chen!

The Feather Immortal Sect forced their Immortal Ancestor to his death; we'll wipe them out later!

What you need to do now is to pull yourself together and lead your Lineage to become stronger!

Only in this way can I avenge myself!

Luo Lingshuang pulled Zhang Xuanchen up with force and said in a firm tone.

If Zhang Xuanchen were to collapse, she couldn't even imagine what the Zhang Family would be like in the future.

Upon hearing that Luo Lingshuang intended to destroy the Feather Immortal Sect...

Neither Hua Shisan nor the three elders showed any mocking expression.

If someone else had said this, they would have just laughed it off, thinking it was just empty talk.

But these words came from Luo Lingshuang.

That means something else entirely.

Upon hearing Luo Lingshuang's words, Zhang Xuanchen's pupils dilated slightly.

Gradually, I came to my senses.

"Yes, Shuang'er, you're right."

I want to become stronger, and I also want to lead my people to become stronger.

My Zhang Family will seek revenge!

His tone was low, revealing an undeniable determination.

He wanted to use the lives of all the high-ranking members of the Feather Immortal Sect to appease the soul of Zhang Chongxian who had died!

He used his Spiritual Qi to evaporate the tears on his face, looked at Hua Shisan, and said:

"Senior, what is the second piece of news?"

Upon hearing the question, Hua Shisan didn't keep him in suspense and said directly:

"The second piece of news is that the Luo Clan from the Central Land Immortal Continent has arrived."

Boom!

"What!"

This news threw Zhang Xuanchen and Luo Lingshuang into a panic!

They said in unison:

"How is the Zhang Family doing now?"

"Hehe." Seeing the two of them so in sync, Hua Shisan couldn't help but chuckle.

He said in a relaxed tone, "Don't worry, the Zhang Family is fine."

That young man who claimed to be the Luo Clan Young Master was not an unreasonable person.

As soon as he finished speaking, Great Elder Yang Wei behind him snorted coldly.

"The Luo Clan Young Master doesn't have much to say, otherwise he wouldn't have directly landed the Mysterious Boat above my sect!"

And that guy named Hui, if it weren't for your great strength, Ancestor, even if you weren't killed by him, you would probably be seriously injured."

"Yang Wei!" Hua Shisan frowned and reprimanded him coldly.

Upon seeing this, Yang Wei turned his head away, his face filled with dissatisfaction towards the Luo Clan.

Hua Shisan shook his head, then looked at Luo Lingshuang and said:

"Ling Shuang, don't listen to the Great Elder's nonsense."

"I was merely exchanging sparring tips with that fellow Daoist Luo."

"By the way, Zhang Family Head, according to my investigation..."

The reason your Zhang Family has been able to live in peace is because of Bai Zijing, the Second Young Master of Horizon Restaurant, and Yan Ruyu, the Fifth Miss.
