“Grandfather, I’m still alive but I simply stepped into a place of bizarre and fantastic sights by accident and couldn’t find my way back.” Zhu Minglang’s face couldn’t hide his emotions as he slowly bowed his body, performing a solemn gesture of respect to his elder, and without waiting for a response, he did not rise.

The Elder Sword Sovereign still got up and walked up to Zhu Minglang, his wrinkled palms covering the back of Zhu Minglang’s hands, gently patting them.

“Your cultivation base is gone, your spirit is calm, without sorrow or complaint, excellent, excellent, your current state is very good, I, the old man, like it. Youth should traverse more. What was that place you mentioned you traversed to?” asked the Elder Sword Sovereign.

“Li Chuan Continent, ” Zhu Minglang replied.

“Ah, that new land. The Imperial Dynasty has sent a decree, asking our Sword Sect to be vigilant and prevent any unknown dangers. Aunt Xuehen seems to be the Orderer there; did you see her?” the Elder Sword Sovereign continued.

“I did see her. I came this time to request that, Grandfather, for the city-state in Li Chuan Continent, which is my family’s…hard-earned territory I’ve strived laboriously to keep stable. Now, many powers are coveting it, wanting to carve it up, and there are already those who don’t follow the rules. I hope

Grandfather can dispatch some experts from the Sect Forest to sit in fortification there,” Zhu Minglang said.

“Why don’t you just speak to Xuehen about this?” the Elder Sword Sovereign remarked.

“Aunt Xuehen is probably thoroughly disappointed in me; she just deals with matters impartially, ” Zhu Minglang said with a bitter smile.

“Alas, why is she like that? No matter what, she is still your half-teacher. In times of chaos, one can’t be an otherworldly powerhouse; to live a life of peace is already difficult,” the Elder Sword Sovereign sighed deeply.

“The choice was mine to make; I can’t blame her,” Zhu Minglang said.

“Miuzhu, I remember one of your martial uncles mentioned to me before, he had plans to go to Li Chuan Continent, to understand the exotic realm, and seek unknown adventures. Tell him, if he’s willing to stay in that city-state, I’ll gift him the Haoying Sword,” Elder Sword Sovereign told Zi Miaozhu.

“It’s Uncle Gu Tang. I’ll convey the message immediately; but… Master, do we still have any Haoying Swords in our Sword Sect? The last one is still in the Abandoned Sword Forest, and no one dares to enter there now; the strange occurrences there still haven’t been dealt with by anyone,” Zi Miaozhu expressed.

Zhu Minglang had an impression of Uncle Gu Tang.

He was a highly upright Sword Monarch who could not tolerate even a speck of dust in his eyes and frequently traveled, enjoying the different regional customs of various cities and towns.

If Uncle Gu Tang were to guard the Ancestral Dragon City-State, the heavy stone in Zhu Minglang’s heart these past few days would finally be set down.

With a Monarch Level Swordsman there, even petty villains would not dare to act rashly!

“Have you forgotten where your senior brother came from? Haoying Sword is indeed rare for our Sword Sect, but to the family of your senior brother, it’s just a few pieces of good iron,” the Elder Sword Sovereign said.

“Right,” Zi Miaozhu agreed.

“Minglang, as you know, Gu Tang has no other hobbies; he likes collecting swords. Only the Haoying Sword can move him,” Elder Sword Sovereign explained.

“That couldn’t be better. I was just about to go back to report safety to my family. After obtaining the Haoying Sword, I will personally deliver it to Uncle when I return to the Ancestral Dragon City-State,” Zhu Minglang once again performed a bow, thanking the old grandfather for his help.

“Grandfather, I’m just moving my lips. Since you’re here, stay a few more days. The journey to the Imperial City is still far, and you must be tired from coming all the way from Li Chuan Continent. By the way, since the Abandoned Sword Forest has been neglected for some time, take a look at what’s going on there as a way of thanking your old grandfather,” the Elder Sword Sovereign proposed.

“Yes, yes,” Zhu Minglang nodded in agreement.

A Monarch Level Powerhouse might not be enough to deter all the forces, but the prestige of the Yaoshan Sword Sect is what matters the most.

As long as the Yaoshan Sword Sect has someone holding the fort there, it could deter most of the treacherous individuals and greatly reduce the burden on Li Yunzi in the battlefield.

After all, if Rui Country fails to breach it for a long time, it would definitely induce some powerful individuals to secretly infiltrate the army; there might also be those lawless villains from the City of Sin who wouldn’t hesitate to plunder the Ancestral Dragon City-State…

“Is this the wife you married in Li Chuan Continent? Very good, your taste is as excellent as your teacher’s,” the Elder Sword Sovereign smiled, looking at Nan Lingsha.

“Master, she is the younger sister of my spouse,” Zhu Minglang clarified.

“Oh, oh, your little wife?”

“Master, we’re pure and clean; it’s just that she probably admires me as a person, much like Junior Sister, and often says inexplicable things to others, giving rise to misunderstandings, ” Zhu Minglang stated.

Zi Miaozhu had already left, likely to pass on a message.

The Elder Sword Sovereign continued, “After all, you grew up together. Junior Sister Miaozhu worships you like an older brother, and sometimes she can’t distinguish these feelings. Now that your heart belongs elsewhere, it can also let her release her obsession. Have a proper talk with her; she’s not the kind of girl who would pester endlessly.”

“Rest assured, Master, I will speak earnestly to Junior Sister. After all, I’ve always seen her as a younger sister,” Zhu Minglang sincerely said.

At this moment, several female disciples came forward. They paid their respects to the Elder Sword Sovereign and led Nan Lingsha and Fang Niannian away, showing them to their residence in the neighboring peak’s villa.

Zhu Minglang let them go ahead and stayed behind to chat a bit longer with the Elder Sword Sovereign.

After they had gone, the Elder Sword Sovereign said with profound meaning, “I find you and her quite compatible. Are you deliberately calling her ‘wife sister’ to reduce Junior Sister Miaozhu’s hostility towards her?”

“Master, they are sisters of a twin pistil, with no difference in their looks. It’s natural for you to think their faces match,” Zhu Minglang replied.

“I see, no wonder… But now that you’re a Dragon Shepherd, why don’t you find a God and Mortal to accompany you instead of walking with two Dragon

Shepherds? It might lead to some trouble,” the Elder Sword Sovereign said.

“She is a God and Mortal, Master,” Zhu Minglang said.

“That’s not right. I sense her aura as that of a Dragon Shepherd. Surely I haven’t aged to the point where I can’t even distinguish this. Moreover, her Dragon Shepherd Realm is quite strange, fluctuating uncertainly around Monarch Level,” the Elder Sword Sovereign remarked.

Zhu Minglang’s mouth fell open.

The Elder Sword Sovereign surely hadn’t fully woken up from his nap.

Nan Lingsha was a God and Mortal.

A God Mortal Painter!

How could she be a Dragon Shepherd…

“Master, please don’t joke with me. I have seen her Power of God and Mortality myself; she couldn’t possibly be a Dragon Shepherd,” Zhu Minglang shook his head.

“Is that so? Then your master may need to tell you that the Divine Mortal Ability you saw might belong to your wife, not her. The woman accompanying you is indeed a Dragon Shepherd,” the Elder Sword Sovereign stated sternly, showing no sign of jest.

Zhu Minglang’s expression gradually turned solemn.

The level of his master should make it impossible for him to be mistaken.

Was Nan Lingsha truly a Dragon Shepherd?

But he had witnessed her Divine Mortal painting several times.

Was it Li Yunzi who painted?

That can’t be, some days ago in the City of Sin, when passing through Fog City, Nan Lingsha also painted!

Could she possess both Divine Mortal and Dragon Trainer abilities at once?

Impossible!

There couldn’t possibly be anyone in this world who has both abilities. One must choose between being a God and Mortal and a Dragon Shepherd.

This was something Zhu Minglang would never question!
