After a long time.
Between heaven and earth, the surging aura gradually calmed down.
The land that had been in a mess before now looked even more like a desolate ruin.
Then, two figures stood between the earth.
The aura around Lu Yixian was surging. He was as ethereal as an immortal, still as confident, calm, and steady as ever.
A hundred zhang away in front of him, there was a figure wearing a long robe, with white hair and beard, looking somewhat decrepit.
“Su Chenyang!”
“Su Chenyang!”
When several of the older generation of Sword Guardians and hall masters saw that aged figure, their expressions all trembled.
Su Chenyang really didn’t die!
As one of the twelve pillars of the Spirit Sword Pavilion in the past, a powerful figure in the Star-Picking Transformation Realm, the lofty image he left in the hearts of the Sword Guardians and hall masters still terrified them up to now.
Inside the Spirit Sword Pavilion.
In the past, the阁主 Ling Shengtian was a unique and superior existence throughout the Central Land.
Below the阁主, the twelve阁主 elders were also among the most top-notch people in the Central Land.
Su Chenyang, the third阁主 elder, had an indelible status and prestige in the hearts of the older generation of Sword Guardians and hall masters.
Lu Yixian also stopped at this moment.
“Elder Su…”
Looking at the old but still vigorous Su Chenyang in front of him, Lu Yixian’s eyes dimmed for a moment.
Su Chenyang stood in front of Ye Wushuang and the others. Looking at Lu Yixian, he sighed and said, “I can’t bear the title of ‘Elder Su’ from the leader of the twenty-four Sword Guardians.”
“Master!”
Lu Yixian looked at Su Chenyang, and his voice trembled.
Master?
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was stunned.
Was the Sword Guardian Lu Yixian a disciple of the阁主 elder Su Chenyang?
The new generation of martial artists were all shocked.
They, the new generation, naturally didn’t know this old history.
“I can’t teach such an outstanding disciple as you. The master-disciple relationship between you and me has long been broken!”
Su Chenyang said solemnly, “In my life, I only have one disciple, Wei Haoxuan.”
In the past, in the Spirit Sword Pavilion.
Wei Haoxuan and Lu Yixian joined the Spirit Sword Pavilion together with Su Chenyang.
Both of them were Su Chenyang’s direct disciples.
Moreover…
Both of them had high talent and their strength improved very quickly. They were also very methodical in their actions.
When the Spirit Sword Pavilion conferred the titles of the twenty-four Sword Guardians, Wei Haoxuan ranked first, Lu Yixian ranked second, and Yuwen Qing ranked third.
Later, Ling Shengtian passed away, and there was chaos in the Spirit Sword Pavilion.
Wei Haoxuan chose to follow his master Su Chenyang without hesitation and left the Spirit Sword Pavilion. He didn’t care even if he had to sacrifice his life.
However, Lu Yixian defected to Xu Ziyin’s faction.
They were originally two outstanding disciples of the same master.
But Su Chenyang never expected that his disciple would betray him.
So, when Ye Wushuang returned this time and saw the betrayal of several阁主 elders, Su Chenyang could most understand Ye Wushuang’s state of mind.
That kind of anger, grief, and disappointment was a very complex emotion.
Ye Wushuang stood among Mu Yeyun and the other three, looking at Lu Yixian and the others.
Wei Haoxuan… was indeed someone he greatly admired in the past, a candidate to inherit the position of the阁主 of the Spirit Sword Pavilion.
At the beginning, Ye Wushuang had thought of choosing one from Wei Haoxuan, Lu Yixian, Yuwen Qing, and Su Yexuan to be the next阁主.
The greatest inclination was towards Wei Haoxuan.
But now, time had passed and things had changed.
Lu Yixian looked at Su Chenyang and said again, “Master, back then you couldn’t defeat the grand阁主 elders. Now, you still can’t.”
“Back then you were seriously injured, and over the years, your heart meridian has been exhausted. From your move just now, you’re probably only at the initial stage of the Star-Picking Transformation Realm, on par with your disciple. How can you be a match for the阁主 elders at the peak of the Star-Picking Transformation Realm?”
Su Chenyang said indifferently, “Back then I resolutely guarded everything left by the阁主 and would rather die than yield. Today, I can still do the same!”
“Lu Yixian, did Xu Ziyin and the others ever tell you that one day the阁主 will return?”
Lu Yixian shook his head and said, “The阁主 won’t come back. The old past has ended, and now it’s a new era, a new beginning.”
“Is that so?”
Su Chenyang sneered, “We were once master and disciple. Now, let’s see whether the student surpasses the master or you haven’t learned well enough!”
Lu Yixian sighed, “Master, your disciple really doesn’t want to compete with you.”
“This time, your disciple can guarantee that if you and Yuwen Qing surrender, the Spirit Sword Pavilion will definitely treat you well.”
“This time, Yin Shenghao and Si Luoyi will surely die, and as for you, Master…”
Su Chenyang interrupted him, “Lu Yixian, you and I are no longer master and disciple!”
Hearing this, Lu Yixian didn’t say anything more.
He already knew that like Yuwen Qing, Su Chenyang couldn’t be swayed.
Lu Yixian sighed and then said, “Cui Qianyu, Hua Canyu, Shen Buxiu, the three of you, capture Yuwen Qing!”
Hearing this, the three Sword Guardians stepped forward one after another, and their auras surged.
“Lu Yixian, you’re still the same as before, thinking you’re superior, but in fact, you’ve always been suppressed by Brother Haoxuan!”
A mocking laugh sounded.
Two figures descended from the sky and landed on either side of Yuwen Qing.
They were the couple Su Xuanye and Yan Ling.
“Su Yexuan!”
“Ling Qingyan!”
Su Yexuan was Su Chenyang’s son.
Moreover, Su Yexuan was younger than the older generation of Sword Guardians like Lu Yixian and Yuwen Qing.
However, he was after all Su Chenyang’s son.
Su Chenyang, who ranked as the third阁主 elder, naturally had remarkable strength.
Since childhood, Su Yexuan had shown great talent and had always been taught by the阁主 Ling Shengtian.
The last person personally taught by the阁主 Ling Shengtian was Xu Mingxiu, who is now the阁主 of the Spirit Sword Pavilion, a great figure in the Star-Picking Transformation Realm.
Su Yexuan said boldly, “Today, even if we have to die, we will show our true selves! I, Su Xuanye, am here on Spirit Sword Mountain. Even if I have to go to the underworld, I will take a few people down with me today.”
