I Have Countless Legendary Swords!

Chapter 295 - Under One Person and Above Ten Thousand

Chapter 295: Chapter 295 – Under One Person and Above Ten Thousand

Everyone else agreed with Lin Changge’s request for Meng Tianlang to be a sword slave.

Compared to Zhou Xuanji, the Ten Thousand Year Prince did not seem as powerful as the legends suggested.

“Being a sword slave is fine too. From what I’ve heard, the Sword Emperor personally guides sword slaves as well and treats them no differently than disciples; the only difference is the title,” Han Daozi said as he smiled and stroked his beard. His gaze towards Zhou Xuanji contained a trace of curiosity.

In actuality, he had always felt quite mystified about Zhou Xuanji’s talent.

Before discovering Meng Tianlang, he had thought that Zhou Xuanji was the Ten Thousand Year Prince.

Even if this was not the case, he should be the Child of Fate.

Otherwise, how could he be so heaven-defying?

“I should have been a sword slave regardless; I don’t dare to have excessive expectations to become a disciple,” Meng Tianlang said earnestly. Back then when he had lost to Zhou Xuanji, he had said he would become a sword slave. With his personality, how could he be thick-faced and ask to be a disciple?

Zhou Xuanji nodded and said, “From today onwards, you can stay at Skyfall.”

He looked at Han Daozi and asked, “What about you? Would you like to stay and be an elder of the sect?”

Han Daozi was a Great Tribulation Scattered Immortal and had gifted him the Ten Thousand Year Prince, so he naturally wanted to rope him in.

Hearing this, Han Daozi did not try to hide it as he glanced at Xian Xianghua and smiled as he said, “Thank you for your good intentions, Sword Emperor. However, I’ve cultivated my entire life and have some aspirations. I want to do some things for the human race. Recently, Yang Di wants to establish a Great Fate Empire and I want to investigate it, so I won’t stay and waste any of your resources and spirit qi.

“Of course, when the Sword Emperor establishes the sect, I will definitely come. If the sect has any difficulties and requires my help, please do not hesitate to ask me.”

After saying this, he got up and cupped his fists before turning and flying over the horizon, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Chongming Demon Monarch muttered, “Sounds nice but he didn’t even leave a way to contact him; in the future, we won’t even be able to find him to ask for help.”

Meng Tianlang looked quite awkward and did not know what to say.

He also felt quite confused as to why his ancestor came and went so hurriedly.

Daoya Old Man loudly laughed and said, “Of course it’s because of Sect Lord Xian. Back then, she was filled with demonic might and almost killed him.”

Everyone looked at Xian Xianghua, who looked quite calm.

Xian Xianghua looked at Meng Tianlang and asked, “What’s your talent in the Way of Sword like?”

Zhou Xuanji was only proficient in the Way of the Sword, and other techniques could only be taught by Daoya Old Man.

Meng Tianlang scratched his head and said, “It’s alright. Everyone in the Great Zhou army trains with the sword, but I’m not as good as pure sword cultivators.”

Just because he did not usually use a sword did not mean he did not like using swords or was not suited to. It was just that the Way of the Sword had gone into decline.

After Zhou Xuanji had risen up, there were more and more sword cultivators in the various Empires, especially Great Zhou. Almost all young cultivators trained with the sword now.

When Zhou Xuanji rose to number one in the world, perhaps he would lead the world to a golden age for the Way of the Sword.

“Have a good rest, I’ll personally teach you tomorrow and see if you’re suited to using a sword,” Zhou Xuanji said as he nodded. He then had Xiao Jinghong settle him down at the place where second generation disciples lived.

This would give the good friends some time to interact alone.

After the two of them left, Xian Xianghua said in surprise, “Who would have thought that the Ten Thousand Year Prince was someone else. However, awakening him will take quite some time and effort.”

Lin Changge said disdainfully, “What Ten Thousand Year Prince? In terms of the sword, his talent is far inferior to mine!”

The Ten Thousand Year Prince’s appearance made him feel a strange sense of threat.

It was not just him, Ning Zifeng felt this too.

Their guesses before had been correct—in the future, more and more geniuses would appear and shake their positions.

Zhou Xuanji shook his head and smiled, but he did not say anything about their insecurities.

“That’s right, I’m going to leave tomorrow and might be gone for years or decades. Now that you’re a full-fledged cultivator, you don’t need me to remain at Skyfall and protect you anymore. You’re not willing to marry me either, only marrying me after you marry that girl Jiang Xue. Such a waste of time,” Xian Xianghua said to Zhou Xuanji, looking somewhat displeased.

After living for so long, she had finally fallen for someone, yet that person had someone else in his heart. Whenever she thought about it, she felt very angry.

“Where are you going?” Zhou Xuanji asked. Xian Xianghua had mostly recovered from her injuries but had not fully recovered, so he was still a bit worried.

“Naturally to become stronger,” Xian Xianghua said before leaving.

Following this, she sent a telepathic message to Zhou Xuanji, reminding him, “Don’t forget to cultivate the Celestial Devil Rebirth Technique. It can save your life.”

Zhou Xuanji felt a warmth in his heart. Sometimes this old demonic woman was somewhat cute.

Following this, everyone scattered to rest or train.

Zhou Xuanji and Jiang Xue returned to their room, and Jiang Xue poured him a cup of tea while asking, “Xuanji, do you think I also have a special hidden identity? After I awaken, I might be able to soar to the sky!”

As she spoke, she became more and more excited, as if she was an existence who could rival the Ten Thousand Year Prince.

Zhou Xuanji lay on the bed as he harrumphed and said, “Actually, yes, but I didn’t tell you this whole time. I discovered it when you were very young.”

Jiang Xue’s beautiful eyes widened and asked in delight, “Really?”

Zhou Xuanji flipped over and got into a more comfortable position as he said, “That’s right, you’re the woman of the future Sword Emperor—under one person and above ten thousand!” He said in a somber and dignified tone. Hearing this, Jiang Xue immediately leapt at Zhou Xuanji murderously.

“What? You want me to be under you?”

“Err... to the side of one person and above ten thousand.”

The next morning, Zhou Xuanji got up and left the room, and he had the little black snake bring Meng Tianlang.

He took out the Swineculling Sword and silently waited next to the cliff.

After a while, Meng Tianlang and the little black snake flew over.

Zhou Xuanji did not say anything and directly used Heavenly Lights, followed by the Ancestor Dragon Sword, and then the Emperor’s Way Thousand Hand Sword Buddha.

As expected, Meng Tianlang decided to train with a sword, and Zhou Xuanji taught him the Thirty-six Paths Jade Xiao Sword.

That fellow was able to learn everything after watching just once and remembered all of the sword styles. However, it took him two hours to practice the Thirty-six Paths Jade Xiao Sword once.

The others also came out now and then to watch.

Daoya Old Man looked at Meng Tianlang, starting to wonder how to get this boy to awaken.

In the following half a month, Meng Tianlang reached Great Accomplishment in the Thirty-six Paths Jade Xiao Sword. Each movement was as if it was from a swordsman who had been cultivating for decades.

Seeing this, Xiao Jinghong, Zhao Congjian, Beixiao Wangjian, and the others all began to work even harder.

Daoya Old Man also came to a conclusion.

This boy had already awakened without showing any signs.

After he had started training in the Way of the Sword, his talent had been completely revealed. Even his qi internalization speed had become faster than before, and even he felt quite surprised.

Before, he did not believe that he was the Ten Thousand Year Prince, but now he believed it and felt somewhat scared.

This was because Ning Zifeng and Lin Changge often came looking for him to spar, but in actuality coming to beat him up.

Currently, he had once again been knocked down to the ground by Lin Changge’s sword sheath.

“Boy, you’ve improved again. Not bad, you’re even more powerful than us,” Lin Changge said as he smiled with narrowed eyes, causing Meng Tianlang to grit his teeth.

Ning Zifeng also had a toying smile on his face.

Before Meng Tianlang rose up, they had to bully him a lot, as they would not have the opportunity to in the future.
