Chapter 636: Chapter 636 – A New Generation Replacing The Old

In the wilderness, Bai An couldn’t help but frown when he felt the gaze of the old man in front of him. The old man in front of him claimed to be surnamed Xiao, but his strength was exceptionally terrifying. He carried a unique penetrating power, as if he could see through everything.

They hadn’t talked much, and it was just their first meeting. Bai An couldn’t help but feel as if he had been seen through by the other party. It had to be said that this was a shocking feeling, and it was also the first time Bai An had such a feeling.

In the past, no matter how powerful a person was, he had never felt this way before. This meeting with the old man gave him such a feeling.

Standing where he was, Bai An’s clothes were unknowingly drenched in cold sweat. At this moment, he only felt his entire body trembling, and there was an inexplicable pressure.

He didn’t know if it was an illusion, but at this moment, he felt that the other party’s gaze seemed to be vaguely focused on his hand. Strictly speaking, it was focused on the ancient sword in his hand.

In reality, this was indeed the case. Sitting opposite Bai An, the old man surnamed Xiao stared at the ancient sword in Bai An’s hand. There was a complicated emotion in his gaze. There was a mix of complexity, desire, and deep regret.

It was difficult to explain these complicated emotions. It gave people the feeling that he had seen this ancient sword before, and it was exceptionally unique.

“Could it be...”

Sensing the old man’s gaze and emotions, Bai An frowned. At this moment, an uneasy thought arose in his heart. He had a premonition in his heart: the old man in front of him knew about the ancient sword. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have such a reaction.

The power of the ancient sword was hidden very deeply. If one hadn’t personally experienced the power of the ancient sword, the others who obtained the ancient sword would have regarded it as an ordinary mortal weapon and wouldn’t pay much attention to it.

With the old man’s cultivation in front of him, it was even more so. He shouldn’t have paid attention to it for such a long time.

The other party recognized the ancient sword and even knew its true power.

Thinking of this, Bai could not help but feel an inexplicable killing intent rise in his heart. At this moment, it was stirring in his arms, ready to erupt at any moment.

The existence of the ancient sword was the deepest secret in Bai An’s heart, and it was also a situation that he absolutely could not allow to be revealed.

If the old man in front of him recognized the ancient sword, then to prevent the news of the ancient sword from being leaked, Bai An would have no choice but to take action.

With this thought in mind, the killing intent in his heart boiled, and it could erupt at any moment. However, his expression remained the same as usual on the surface, without the slightest change.

“Senior...”

Standing on the spot, he had already decided to make his move. However, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he was about to say something to distract the other party.

However, he did not achieve his goal.

“There’s no need to think too much.”

The old man looked at Bai An in front of him and gave him a deep look as if he had already noticed his actions. “I do recognize this sword.

“You don’t have to be like this.

“If this sword recognizes you as its master, you don’t have to be so protective.

“If not, even if you wanted to kill me, you wouldn’t be able to do it.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the killing intent in Bai An’s heart disappeared instantly. At this moment, he raised his head and looked at the other party with some uncertainty.

As expected, just as he had thought, the other party had recognized the ancient sword. From its looks, not only did the old man recognize the ancient sword, but he was also very clear about its power.

“Who are you?”

Bai An finally frowned and asked the old man.

“Me?”

The old man looked deeply at Bai An and finally shifted his gaze to the ancient sword. His gaze was filled with deep nostalgia. “I am the previous owner of this sword.”

“The previous owner of this sword.”

As the old man’s words fell, the entire area quieted down. It was so quiet that it was frightening. Bai An’s expression instantly changed as he looked at the old man in bewilderment. At this moment, he suddenly didn’t know what to say.

The previous owner of the ancient sword? Was this true?

At this moment, various thoughts flashed through Bai An’s mind. Bai An was very clear about the power of the ancient sword.

During these years, the ancient sword had not displayed much power. However, during those few times when it displayed its power, that invincible might was still deeply engraved in Bai An’s heart. He couldn’t forget it.

Even though all these years, along with Bai An’s concealment, the ancient sword had not displayed its power again, it still brought Bai An great help.

With this ancient sword, it would be extremely easy to enter the state of enlightenment if one were to cultivate. Being able to cultivate at ease, be it to increase one’s cultivation or comprehend secret techniques, was a supreme treasure. There were very few things in this world that could be compared.

Bai An felt very fortunate to have the ancient sword. To put it bluntly, if he did not have the ancient sword, he would not even dare to have the thought of taking revenge on the Eternal Dynasty, let alone reach this stage.

Bai An had also speculated about the origin of the ancient sword in the past. He wondered if the ancient sword had an owner in the past.

However, in Bai An’s opinion, even if the ancient sword had an owner, it must have fallen long ago. Otherwise, how could it have allowed such a precious treasure to wander outside for many years?

At least, Bai An boasted that if one had owned the ancient sword, one would have searched for it no matter what. No one would be willing to let it go.

In the past years, the ancient sword had been worshiped in the Bai Family’s ancestral hall and held by the ancestors of the Bai Family. This was also one of the reasons why Bai believed that the owner of the ancient sword had long disappeared.

But now, the old man in front of him claimed to be the previous sword master of the ancient sword.

How trustworthy was this? What was his purpose?

All kinds of thoughts flashed through Bai An’s mind in an instant. The gaze he used to look at the old man in front of him could not help but become complicated and vigilant.

“There’s no need to think too much...”

Facing Bai An’s complicated gaze, the old man’s attitude was very calm. He directly said, “If I wanted to snatch this ancient sword, I wouldn’t have appeared in front of you.

“Wouldn’t it be better if I hid in the dark and took the opportunity to strike while you were unprepared?

“Why would I appear in front of you?”

He smiled and said.

Bai An thought for a moment and then nodded. Indeed, just as the old man said, he would not have exposed himself in front of Bai An if he wanted to take the ancient sword.

If it were Bai An, he would either hide and take the opportunity to act or pretend that he did not know the ancient sword and wait until he was no longer vigilant.

No matter which option he chose, it was much better than directly appearing and saying everything. Similarly, what the other party said before was also reasonable.

The ancient sword had a spirit, and it was not something that could be solved by force.

If the ancient sword had already acknowledged Bai An as the sword wielder, even if the other party forcefully seized it, it would only cause the ancient sword to awake. At that time, the ancient sword would be able to fight off the other party easily, no matter how powerful the other party was.
