My Mother-in-Law Gifted Me a Building

”If you want to know the Celestial Sword Technique, that’s no problem. I can teach you, but you have to tell me: where is the Heaven-Slaying Sword Emperor? Even if he’s dead, you have to tell me where he’s buried,” the old woman said.

”I can tell you that he is, in fact, dead. By the time I found him, he’d been dead for several hundred years. There was nothing left but bones. That was when I obtained his Sword Technique and sword.”

”I can tell you, but you can’t resort to violence, and you certainly can’t desecrate his grave. After all, he was your father. No matter what happened between you, you can’t change the fact that you’re related by blood,” Chu Feng said.

”Fine! I agree. Now, take me to him!” the old woman said directly.

”Yes. I have to say, the Heaven-Slaying Sword Emperor’s talent was truly extraordinary. If not for the limitations of the era, perhaps he would have truly reached that realm,” Chu Feng said, filled with admiration for the Heaven-Slaying Sword Emperor.

”Master, you’re injured. Why don’t we go tomorrow?” Bai Xue said at that moment.

”Don’t worry, I’m not dead yet. I am a cultivator at the Human Martial Arts Peak Realm, after all. Take me there,” the old woman said.

Although she had been injured during her fight with Chu Feng, it wasn’t a serious wound, so she spoke with a very firm tone.

Seeing this, Chu Feng’s admiration for the Heaven-Slaying Sword Emperor grew. Not only was the Heaven-Slaying Sword Emperor himself so formidable, but the daughter he fathered was just as determined and unyielding.

After all, on the path of the Martial Dao, if you couldn’t walk forward with unwavering determination, you were destined not to get very far.

One’s achievements would be extremely limited. One might even stagnate completely after reaching a certain height.

Although Chu Feng admired the old woman’s determination, he felt it was all rather unnecessary.

’After all, her determination is just her clinging to a centuries-old grudge. To be obsessed for hundreds of years over hatred... it’s completely pointless.’

The seeds of hatred had taken root deep in her heart and grown into a towering tree.

For one’s journey on the Martial Dao, the impact on one’s state of mind would be immense.

’Whether in the Martial Dao or in life, if you’re born human, you should live like a decent person. You should live a good life. Why hold on to hatred for so long?’

”I can take you, but after we get there, you must teach me the Celestial Sword Technique,” Chu Feng said.

”No problem. However, I only pass down my Celestial Sword Technique to my own disciples. If you want to learn it, you’ll have to become my disciple,” the old woman said, her tone firm and leaving no room for negotiation.

”Fine by me. As long as you’re willing to teach, I’m in,” Chu Feng agreed.

’As long as he could learn the Celestial Sword Technique, Chu Feng didn’t mind having another master.’

”The place is a bit far. You’ll have to bear with the journey,” Chu Feng said.

The tomb of the Heaven-Slaying Sword Emperor was very far from here. Back then, it had taken Chu Feng several hours of traveling at full speed just to get there.

Soon, Chu Feng was dashing through the mountain forest.

The old woman followed closely behind him, while Bai Xue fell in at the rear.

The three of them traveled at full speed for over two hours before finally arriving at their destination.

Not far from the mouth of a cave, Chu Feng had erected a grave mound.

He had already sealed the cave itself, not wanting anyone else to discover it.

Before long, the three of them saw the small earthen mound.

On top of the mound was a tombstone, though it was one carved from wood.

”The grave you’re looking for is right here. He was nothing but bones, though. It’s only because he was so powerful that his bones haven’t turned to dust after several hundred years,” Chu Feng said.

Hearing this, the old woman stared intently at the small earthen mound, her eyes flickering as her thoughts remained unreadable.

”Sir, could you let my master be alone for a little while?” Bai Xue asked Chu Feng at this moment.

She understood her master. Although she appeared forceful and gave off an impression of being very tough, she actually had a very soft heart.

”I can, but she can’t dig up the grave,” Chu Feng said with a frown.

He was worried that the old woman might get emotional and end up digging up the grave, which would be going too far.

’He had, after all, received the Heaven-Slaying Sword Emperor’s legacy. He couldn’t let someone desecrate the man’s grave after he was already dead.’

”Sir, you can rest assured. My master wouldn’t do something like that. Although she hates him, deep down, what she really wants is just to see him,” Bai Xue said.

”Mm, alright then. By the way, your name is Bai Xue, right? Hello, I’m Chu Feng. I guess that makes us fellow disciples from now on,” Chu Feng said with a smile.

”Yes, hello. I am a little curious, though. You’re already so powerful, why would you still choose to become my master’s disciple?” Bai Xue asked, clearly finding his decision strange.

He had already reached the Human Martial Arts Peak Realm, making him even stronger than her master, yet he still wanted to become a disciple? The thought was truly baffling.

”Because I want to learn the sword. Do you know the Celestial Sword Technique?” Chu Feng asked.

”I don’t,” Bai Xue said with a definitive shake of her head.
