Yuan Long and the others were speechless. He quickly changed the topic. "Are you planning to participate in the convention, Brother Lin?"
Yun Lintian shook his head. "No. We just want to join a lively atmosphere."
Yuan Long sighed softly. "I wish I could be leisure like you."
"Are you coming for the convention?" Shen Liqiu asked.
Yuan Long nodded. "Yes. To tell you the truth, we don't want to come. Unfortunately, we cannot disobey our sect master."
"Oh? Why is that?" Shen Liqiu asked in surprise.
"Look. We don't even have an elder accompanying us." A pretty young woman beside Yuan Long said. Her name was Jia Rong. "Our sect is currently encountering trouble that cannot be solved. Entering the Heavenly Sword Palace seems to be the only way out. That's why we are here."
Yuan Long added. "We know ourselves very well. It's difficult for us to enter the Heavenly Sword Palace. We believe that this trip is a waste."
Shen Liqiu suddenly laughed and said straightforwardly. "Knowing yourself is a good thing, but as practitioners, we must break through our limits, isn't it? Why are you giving up before starting?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtYuan Long and the others fell silent immediately.
"You should learn from my husband. Although his appetite is small, he never stops looking for a new wife. That's how ambitious he is." Shen Liqiu chuckled.
Yun Lintian: "…"
Hearing this, Yuan Long suddenly laughed and cupped his fists. "I have been taught, Miss Li. You're right. As a practitioner, we can't stop advancing. We will try our best."
Jia Rong and the other three also nodded in agreement. They seemed to be enlightened by Shen Liqiu's words.
"By the way, what's the trouble your sect facing right now? You don't have to tell us if it's inconvenient." Shen Liqiu asked curiously.
Yuan Long let out a long sigh and said. "It's the Blazing Sun Palace. Not long ago, they had recruited a young man, and this person was extremely talented. He used a few months to climb to the top and became a true disciple of the palace."
"However, I don't know what exactly happened, but he suddenly attacked us and said it was a mission given by the Blazing Sun Palace Master. Naturally, our Bright Sword Sect could not resist if they wanted to do it, but they let the man handle fight us alone without any helper."
Yuan Long's face became serious as he continued. "This man's affinity with the fire element is unprecedented high, as well as his swordsmanship. Our sect master said this person is the most talented sword practitioner seedling he had ever seen in his life."
"His current profound strength is only at the first level of the Ruler Profound Realm, but he can fight any saint with no problem. Our sect has lost many saints under his hand during this month."
Speaking to this point, Yuan Long sighed once again. "Of course. Our sect didn't dare to send any monarch to deal with him. Otherwise, we would face the Blazing Sun Palace's wrath if something happened to him."
"This is obviously bullying." Shen Liqiu snorted. "I always thought that the Blazing Sun Palace is upright. It seems I have misunderstood it all the time."
"They used to be upright," Jia Rong suddenly said. "Our sect master said the Blazing Sun Palace was the noblest and righteous among the nine palaces, but everything had changed for the past thousand years."
Yuan Long added. "It was said the current palace master is a very cruel person. He even killed a whole mortal village just because they unknowingly offended him.
Yun Lintian frowned deeply upon hearing this. "Bingling, do you know about this?"
"It's true." Han Bingling's voice resounded in his mind. "The current Blazing Sun Palace Master, Yan Yaoting, comes from a branch line. Five hundred years ago, he had defeated everyone in the main line and exiled them before taking the palace master's position."
"I have interacted with him once. I must say, he's a terrifying individual. No less than Weilan Tianjun." Han Bingling said solemnly.
"I see." Yun Lintian couldn't help but worry inwardly.
Although Yan Qi didn't make him promise to take care of the Blazing Sun Palace, he couldn't simply stand by without doing anything. If there was a chance, he would undoubtedly take a look at it.
"Do you know this person's name?" Shen Liqiu asked further.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"His name is Yang Chen. We don't know where he came from. He just popped up out of nowhere." Jia Rong answered.
Yun Lintian and Yun Qianxue glanced at each other in surprise… Could this person be the same Yang Chen they knew?
The problem was, why did he follow such a stupid instruction? With his personality, it was difficult to believe that he would take on an innocence like the Bright Sword Sect… There must be something behind this.
"Meilan, I'll trouble you to check the Eastern Continent's situation for me after finishing the business here. We can also use this chance to establish our team there." Yun Lintian immediately contacted Yun Meilan through the Shadow God technique.
"Understood." Yun Meilan's voice resounded.
"I heard that he's coming here, too." Jia Rong said worriedly. "If we met him, I'm afraid we wouldn't survive."
"I don't know if we can give up during the assessment." Another man echoed his worry.
"It should be fine. This place is the Heavenly Sword Palace's territory. I don't think he dares to act brazenly here." Yuan Long comforted.
Yun Lintian thought for a moment and took a few talismans out before handing them to Yuan Long. "These are escaping talismans. It can teleport you several thousand kilometers away. Use them when you're in danger."
"This…" Yuan Long and the others were stunned. Obviously, they knew how precious the escaping talisman was. To make one, it needed to draw spatial power from a precious spatial stone. Even Monarchs would reluctantly give it to others.
"It's too precious, Brother Lin. We cannot accept it." Yuan Long shook his head.
"Take it. My husband has a lot of them. Look." Shen Liqiu said while taking a bunch of talismans out, flaunting in front of everyone.
Yun Lintian: "…"
