Chapter 43: Greetings Senior Brother Qi Yang
"Well Sect Master has a point!" Recalling the frustration of being suppressed by Su Zhan half a month ago, Chen Changfeng's mouth twitched, and he let out a bitter smile.
"I was overthinking it. Someone like Su Zhan, who can casually create an extremely powerful sword technique, doesn't really need me to worry about it"
Upon hearing Chen Changfeng's words, Qin Jincheng's eyes brightened slightly. "By the way, Junior Brother Chen, have you asked Su Zhan for guidance on the Firestar Sword Technique?"
"Sect Master, are you suggesting that"
"Cough, cough!" Qin Jincheng looked somewhat embarrassed. "I just want to understand the merits of Su Zhan's sword technique. If it's convenient for you, could you ask him for me when you have the chance?"
"Why don't you ask him yourself, Sect Master?"
"Well it's an order! Are you not going to obey the Sect Master's command?" Qin Jincheng's face turned serious.
"Alright then" Chen Changfeng wore a helpless expression.
Inside the Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect's treasure vault, Su Zhan was selecting treasures.
First was a storage ring. He switched to a larger one, with a space of up to a thousand cubic meters.
Next was a sword.
Although he had condensed the Great Sun Star Sword, Su Zhan was only in the early stage of the Martial Master realm. The Great Sun Star Sword was not yet stable enough and required more time to nurture. Moreover, considering his current cultivation level, using the Great Sun Star Sword consumed a significant amount of true qi. Therefore, he still needed to equip himself with another sword. His gaze swept over several swords of the Profound level, and Su Zhan carefully sensed the inscriptions within each one.
In order to fly with a sword, there must be the inscription of "Void Control" engraved on the sword. Of course, his own personal sword did not have this restriction.
"Extreme Sun Sword, high-grade Profound artifact. The sword body is forged from Sun Iron, which amplifies the power of fire attribute true qi"
Su Zhan held the crimson Extreme Sun Sword in his hand, examined it for a while, and decided that this sword would do.
Next, he selected some other treasures.
For example, a high-grade Profound artifact, the Water-Fire Jade Pendant, which could avoid poisonous insects, water, and fire.
The Wind Swift Boots, an artifact that increased speed and made the body more agile.
And many special healing and true qi-recovering elixirs.
After registering them one by one at the entrance, Su Zhan received all the treasures into his storage ring, much to the envy of the steward responsible for guarding the treasure vault. Then, he transformed the Extreme Sun Sword into a rainbow light and left.
Three days later.
On the square of the main hall at the peak of the Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect, Chen Changfeng prepared to leave with Su Zhan.
"Ahem, Junior Brother, did you forget something?" Qin Jincheng coughed lightly and spoke.
"Forget something? Oh! I remember now!" Chen Changfeng suddenly realized and said to Su Zhan, "Su Zhan, the Sect Master wants to ask you how to cultivate your Firestar Sword Technique!"
"Huh?" Su Zhan was taken aback and looked at Qin Jincheng, whose face had turned red with embarrassment. "Sect Master, do you want to learn swordsmanship from me?"
Qin Jincheng wished he could find a hole to hide in right now.
Damn it, I am the Sect Master of the Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect! This damn Chen Changfeng just said it so directly And Su Zhan, how do I answer your question?
As the Sect Master of the Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect, one of the strongest sword cultivators in the Xia Kingdom, don't I have any dignity?
"It seems that Senior Chen has misunderstood the intentions of the Sect Master. Let's go!" Seeing this, Su Zhan said to Chen Changfeng.
"Alright." Chen Changfeng smiled, glanced at Qin Jincheng, and raised his hand, summoning a white jade giant boat that floated in the air.
"Wait!" Just as Su Zhan was about to leave, Qin Jincheng spoke up. Although he resisted in his heart, his body acted obediently.
The allure of the Firestar Sword Technique was irresistible to someone like Qin Jincheng, who was obsessed with swordsmanship!
"Su Zhan, if it's convenient for you, could you teach me your sword art?" Qin Jincheng's face turned red. "It's a bit embarrassing to say, but I've lived for over a hundred years, and despite pondering and contemplating for the past half month, I still can't fully comprehend your sword art. The intricacy of this sword art surpasses all the swordsmanship I have practiced in my lifetime! If it's possible"
"Sure!" Su Zhan didn't hesitate at all and smiled. "It's just a sword art. If the Sect Master wants to learn, I can write it down for you right now."
As he spoke, Su Zhan took the paper and pen handed to him by Qin Jincheng and began to write.
Su Zhan could feel that Qin Jincheng and Chen Changfeng genuinely cared about him, and he had indeed enjoyed many benefits from the Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect. Sharing a sword art was nothing.
Soon, he finished writing, and Qin Jincheng treated it like a precious treasure as he carefully put it away.
"Sect Master, this sword art is easy to learn at the entry level, but difficult to cultivate. However, with your understanding of swordsmanship, perhaps by the time I return, you will have made significant progress."
"I won't dare to claim significant progress, but mastering the basics is certain!" Qin Jincheng smiled.
Afterwards, they discussed some matters to pay attention to regarding the Dark Star Forest, and Su Zhan boarded the white jade boat.
Under the control of Chen Changfeng, the white jade boat transformed into a white rainbow light and flew towards the horizon.
Two days later.
In an open area beneath the East Sky Mountains, the white jade boat landed.
Su Zhan looked ahead. There were already many people here, including senior experts at the Origin Elixir Realm and young geniuses.
Upon seeing Su Zhan and Chen Changfeng's arrival, those people also curiously glanced over.
"Su Zhan, those two are members of our Xia Kingdom's royal family." Chen Changfeng scanned the surroundings and walked towards an old man and a young man. Along the way, he spoke to Su Zhan.
"Elder Chen."
"Senior Chen!"
The old man at the Origin Elixir realm and the young man at the Martial Master Realm almost simultaneously spoke up.
"General Li, Prince Qihai." Chen Changfeng smiled faintly and pointed at Su Zhan. "This is Su Zhan, the talented genius from our Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect. He will represent us in entering the Dark Star Forest."
Su Zhan?
Not Qi Yang?
General Li and Prince Qihai were somewhat surprised, but now they naturally wouldn't directly inquire, as it would be impolite.
"Hello, Brother Su. I am Prince Xia Qihai of Xia Kingdom."
"Hello, I am Su Zhan." Su Zhan nodded, acknowledging the greeting.
At that moment, another voice sounded.
"Brother Chen, long time no see!" An old man with white hair, dressed in Daoist robes, walked over.
Following behind him was a perfectly proportioned girl with a delicate and exquisite face, as if carved from jade, flawless.
Chen Changfeng glanced at the old man and revealed a smile. "Imperial Scholar, indeed it has been some time. Speaking of which, you still owe me a jar of Purple Fruit Spirit Wine from last time."
"Cough cough, I have long forgotten about such a trivial matter. Brother Chen, there's no need to worry about it!" The old man waved his hand, indicating that it shouldn't be brought up again.
Chen Changfeng didn't pursue the matter further and introduced the old man to Su Zhan, "This person is Song Shanhai, the Imperial Teacher of the Flower Moon Kingdom. And this one"
Song Shanhai saw Chen Changfeng pointing towards the girl and smiled. "This is the personal disciple of our Flower Moon Kingdom's Empress, Hua Yiyi. Yiyi, why don't you pay your respects to Senior Chen?"
"I greet Senior Chen!" Hua Yiyi's beautiful eyes swept over and looked at Su Zhan, smiling sweetly.
"I suppose you must be Brother Qi Yang, the number one genius of the Xia Kingdom. I've heard of Brother Qi Yang being the White Dragon Saint Body and, at the age of only twenty-three, already reaching the peak of the Martial Master Realm, with strength comparable to that of the Origin Elixir Realm! Today, seeing you in person, Senior Brother, you are even more extraordinary than I imagined!"
"Greetings, Senior Brother Qi Yang!"
