Although it had only been a short time since Lin Xuan parted ways with the Vast Sea Saint King Vast Sea Saint King, Lin Xuan had already begun to miss him.
He swept his sleeve, gathering the pile of broken sword fragments, and shook his head slightly.
If only the Saint King were here too.
Having lived for so long and being the ruler of a holy dynasty, perhaps he could see through the problem.
or...
Should I try to find a trustworthy weapon refiner?
Lin Xuan sighed helplessly as he thought about it.
Although the Eastern Continent is vast and has many weapon refiners, few can meet his requirements.
Many weapon refiners, in order to hone their skills, basically only study the art of weapon crafting.
They were supported by powerful clans and devoted themselves to the study of weapon crafting, so they had virtually no combat ability.
What Lin Xuan needed was not only a knowledgeable weapon refiner capable of crafting Saint Artifact, but also a weapon refiner with powerful cultivation who was unaffected by the Sword Qi, could withstand the residual energy of the sword fragment, and possessed strong cultivation.
But it's too difficult!
He even doubted whether such a person truly existed in the world.
"Let's wait until the Saint King returns..."
After carefully putting away the sword fragments, Lin Xuan suppressed his impatience.
He also knew that nothing could be rushed.
We can only take it one step at a time.
Just then, a slightly hesitant knock came from outside his door, followed by a familiar female voice.
"Master, the princess requests your presence."
" Princess Muxue is hosting a banquet at the Donghuang Pavilion and has invited you to attend this evening to express her gratitude for your Mansion Competition's past efforts... Should I decline the princess's invitation again this time?"
Xia Mengyao's voice was hesitant.
Lin Xuan paused slightly.
During this time, he refused to see any visitors, focusing solely on studying his ancestor's broken sword.
Dongfang Muxue had invited him more than once, simply to express her gratitude.
But he never agreed, only instructing Xia Mengyao, who remained at the princess's residence, to refuse.
However, his plan to study sword fragments has now fallen through.
So be it.
Lin Xuan stood up and opened the door.
Against the sunlight streaming in from outside, the white-clad youth walked to the door with a calm expression and handsome features, truly a peerless gentleman. Xia Mengyao subconsciously stared into Lin Xuan's eyes, gazing into those deep pupils, feeling as if she were being sucked in.
"Go, this time, I will go."
It would be good to go even once.
Hearing Lin Xuan's words, Xia Mengyao suddenly came to her senses. She lowered her head slightly, a little shyly, and hurriedly said, "Yes, I will go and inform the princess right away!"
As dusk approached, Lin Xuan arrived at the princess's residence.
It was exactly what he expected.
At this banquet, almost everyone knew who he was, and the way everyone looked at him was filled with awe, respect, and a hint of envy.
They were especially shocked when they learned that Lin Xuan was only in his early Thirty.
The banquet was a great success, with both hosts and guests enjoying themselves.
Those invited to this level of banquet were all discerning individuals, and no one dared to Qi Ingestion Lin Xuan.
It was a pretty good banquet.
After the banquet ended and everyone else had left, only Lin Xuan and Dongfang Muxue remained in the main hall.
Dongfang Muxue was dressed in exquisite and elegant clothes, her attire dignified, and her face as solemn and serene as a goddess.
But once Lin Xuan was alone, she took a deep breath, removed her elaborate headdress, lowered her posture, walked to Lin Xuan's side, bowed slightly, and asked softly.
"Would Pavilion Master Lin be willing to accompany me for a walk?"
Of course, there was nothing to be unwilling about.
The two walked hand in hand in the back garden of the princess's residence.
The back garden, brimming with Spiritual Qi, was devoid of any extra people, only bathed in night and moonlight.
Dongfang Muxue glanced deeply at the white-robed youth beside her, concealing a slight sigh in her eyes, before speaking.
"The reason I invited you here today is not merely to host a banquet in gratitude... Pavilion Master Lin, I have a favor to ask."
"I'd like to hear the details," Lin Xuan said calmly.
He had already realized that Dongfang Muxue must have something to ask him; otherwise, why would she be so hesitant to speak?
Dongfang Muxue did not delay.
After carefully considering her words, she said, "I would like to ask you to preach for the Taiyu Divine Dynasty!"
"Preaching?"
Now, Lin Xuan was deeply puzzled.
This was the first time anyone had mentioned such a thing to him.
He had initially thought that Dongfang Muxue wanted to invite him to stay and further intervene in the struggle between her and the Eldest Imperial Prince, or something else entirely.
Unexpectedly, this was completely beyond his expectations.
Dongfang Muxue nodded firmly. She stepped into the garden, looked at the bright moon in the sky, and a touch of desolation appeared in her eyes.
Then, he spoke softly.
"Within the Taiyu Divine Dynasty, there is actually another Holy Heaven, existing only in the small world under the control of the Taiyu Divine Dynasty."
"Over countless years, this world has developed in this way, and the Holy Heaven Force known as the Great Cosmos Holy Academy has become a place where successive God Lords select loyal talents for themselves."
"Countless powerful figures within the Taiyu Divine Dynasty actually originated from that small world, including..."
"Two Great Saint!!"
With a nonchalant attitude, Dongfang Muxue directly revealed some shocking information unique to the Taiyu Divine Dynasty to Lin Xuan.
As she spoke, her tone became somewhat complicated.
The reason why she and the Eldest Imperial Prince were betting so frantically on this Mansion Competition was not only to demonstrate their strength, but also because there was a hidden reward for the two heirs.
That is, whoever is the winner will be qualified to make contact with the Great Cosmos Holy Academy in that small world first!
There is absolutely no possibility of making contact secretly.
Because the small world where the Great Cosmos Holy Academy is located is only controlled by the ruler of the divine dynasty.
Currently, the ruler of the Divine Dynasty does not show any obvious favoritism towards any particular person.
Because the Great Cosmos Holy Academy is backed by the Taiyu Divine Dynasty, strictly speaking, it is more powerful and more competitive than any of the Ten Great Saint Heavens of the Holy Heaven Domain.
And then there's...
"Within the Great Cosmos Holy Academy, there is a Sword Pool. Before passing away, every sword cultivator of the Taiyu Divine Dynasty would go to the Sword Pool to leave their Sword Dao statue."
"There are even those who have comprehended the Sword Domain, who have passed away within the Sword Pool."
The Sword Domain is rare.
However, as one of the four most powerful forces in the entire Eastern Continent, the Taiyu Divine Dynasty has produced several Sword Domain over the countless years.
nature...
Countless Saint Realm have emerged from them, and the Great Saint born there are not limited to the three present!
In terms of foundation and power, they are only missing a Saint King capable of reviving the Vast Sea Saint Dynasty!
At this point, Dongfang Muxue slowly revealed her full purpose.
" Sword Pool is not open to outsiders, but I can make an exception and invite you there, hoping that you will be willing to preach once within the Great Cosmos Holy Academy."
Dongfang Muxue spoke very sincerely.
She knew how powerful Lin Xuan's Sword Dao.
Currently, the Taiyu Divine Dynasty has only one sword cultivator who has comprehended the Sword Domain.
This shows how rare they are.
Lin Xuan's expression flickered slightly, showing a hint of interest in the Sword Pool, but it was only a hint.
However, before he could say anything, Dongfang Muxue, as if afraid he wouldn't agree, spoke again and placed another bet.
"If you are not interested in the Sword Pool, there is a highly talented prodigy in the Great Cosmos Holy Academy. If he catches your eye, and both parties agree, you can take him as your disciple."
This statement did indeed pique Lin Xuan's interest.
He was certain that Dongfang Muxue was aware of her own strength, but when she mentioned that prodigy and talked about taking on disciples, she looked completely confident, as if she would definitely be tempted.
Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow slightly.
"Okay, I promise."
He wanted to see what kind of prodigy was so highly regarded by Dongfang Muxue, and he felt that he himself would definitely be tempted by such a person.
