Your Persistence Has Found Its Worth

"Because of the Battle King, I comprehended the Undying Sword Intent. Though the Undying Sword Intent may not have been the main reason I achieved what I have today, it cannot be ignored. The Battle King's sect is in trouble—I cannot turn a blind eye. Otherwise, I would be unworthy of the Battle King, and my state of mind would remain obstructed."

Originally, Ye Chen had only intended to take a look at the Undying Sword Sect and see what it was like. If the Undying Sword Sect had been flourishing, packed with experts, he would have quietly left without bringing them any trouble. Nor had he wished to become the Sect Master of the Undying Sword Sect. But now that the Undying Sword Sect was in trouble and had even changed its name to the Eternal Sky Sect, he could not simply stand aside.

Huff!

Letting out a deep breath, Ye Chen flashed forward and swept toward the depths of the mountain range.

At the center of the range stood a towering mountain of clear waters and verdant hills. From halfway up, it seemed as if someone had sliced it clean through with a single blade, leaving a broad, smooth, level cross-section.

A vast cluster of buildings stood atop the mountain, rising and falling with the terrain. Setting aside its air of decay, it was actually quite a fine place.

At the foot of the mountain stood a huge stone stele, engraved with three large characters—Eternal Sky Sect.

Two rows of disciples guarded the mountain gate, chatting idly.

At this moment, a group of people carrying bundles on their backs came down the mountain.

"Senior Brother Gao, are you taking leave to return home?"

Seeing people coming down the mountain, one of the gate-guarding disciples smiled and asked them.
