Legend of Swordsman

“Without two experts of the fifth level of the void, the blood ancestor is temporarily unable to return to the Divine Beginning Realm. With just me supporting him, the position of my blood ancestor’s lineage will naturally be shaken. The three great factions that were on equal footing with my blood

ancestor’s lineage also took the opportunity to make trouble. During this period of time, my blood ancestor’s lineage has been at a disadvantage in many battles against these three great factions.

“Up until now, many of the resources that we occupied were territories, and we have been forced to give up quite a few of them. However, this is not the end. During this period of time, the nether ancestor lineage of the four strongest factions has secretly schemed against the blood ancestor lineage. They

want to compete with the blood ancestor lineage for an extremely important territory. The blood ancestor lineage is currently thinking of how to deal with it,” Master Ancient Wheel said, from his words, Jian Wushuang could tell that he had no solution.

Jian Wushuang sighed in his heart.

Sure enough, there were all kinds of conflicts of interest in any major force, which could not be avoided. The root of all these interests was one’s own strength. Only when one’s strength was strong enough…could one earn more resources.

“Mr, Heavenly Marquis, it’s all thanks to you that Xue Bei’s interspatial ring has returned. The treasures in the interspatial ring are of great use to my blood ancestor’s bloodline now. It can be considered to have solved our urgent problem,” Master Ancient Wheel said.

“You’re too kind, Master Ancient Wheel.” Jian Wushuang smiled, but he began to ponder in his heart, “Senior Xue Bei was a great benefactor to me. Without the opportunity he gave me back then, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have been able to get to where I am today in such a short period of time. Back then,

senior Xue Bei said that if I saw that the blood ancestor’s bloodline was in trouble, I would help if I could…”

Jian Wushuang did not have much of a relationship with the blood ancestor’s bloodline, but Xue Bei had indeed helped him a lot back then. Moreover, he had obtained Xue Bei’s mantle. In fact, he could be considered Xue Bei’s successor, now that the blood ancestor’s bloodline was in trouble, Jian

‘Wushuang did not mind helping them if he could.

Of course, this was only if he could really help them.

After chatting for a while, Master Ancient Wheel suddenly smiled and said, “Mr. Heavenly Marquis, it seems that you’re quite a big man.”

“Oh?” Jian Wushuang looked at Master Ancient Wheel and asked, “Has spirit ancestor replied?”

“Yes, the maid of spirit ancestor has sent a message. She said that spirit ancestor is willing to see you and wants me to take you there now,” Master Ancient Wheel said.

“Then let’s not waste any time. I’ll ask Master Ancient Wheel to lead the way.” Jian Wushuang stood up with joy on his face.

He had known that spirit ancestor was cold and aloof and might not meet him. He had been worried because if spirit ancestor was unwilling to meet him, he would have to think of other ways, but now it seemed that he was lucky that spirit ancestor was willing to meet him.

“Mr. Heavenly Marquis, come with me.”

Ancient wheel master led Jian Wushuang to the place where spirit ancestor lived.

Spirit ancestor was cold and aloof. Although she was an ancestor of the Divine Ancestor Daoist Sect and a member of a big faction, she did not have any experts under her command, the place where she lived was not as grand as the blood ancestor’s. She only lived in a bamboo forest near the edge.

Deep in the bamboo forest, the river was very quiet. Except for spirit ancestor and her handmaidens, no one would come here normally.

But today, Master Ancient Wheel brought Jian Wushuang and Demon Master Chenhuo to the outside of the bamboo forest.

As soon as they arrived, a green-robed woman came up to them.

“Miss Lu ‘er, I have brought the Heavenly Sword Marquis here,” Master Ancient Wheel introduced with a smile.

“You are Heavenly Sword Marquis?” The green-robed woman looked at Jian Wushuang.

“Yes, I am.” Jian Wushuang nodded with a humble expression.

He could see that although the green-robed woman was only a maid under spirit ancestor’s command, her cultivation had reached the level of Principles Master. Moreover, judging from the vague pressure coming from her body…the woman’s strength was at least at the fourth realm of the void, and it

was possible that she had reached the fifth realm.

“How dare a Principles Master with such great strength be willing to be a servant of spirit ancestor?” Jian Wushuang’s expression was rather strange.

“Master has instructed that Heavenly Sword Marquis is alone. The others can leave first, or wait outside the bamboo forest,” the green-robed woman said.

“Mr, Heavenly Marquis, there are still some things that we have to deal with in the blood ancestor lineage, so we’ll go back first,” Master Ancient Wheel said and left.

Naturally, Chenhuo stayed outside the bamboo forest to wait for Jian Wushuang.

Jian Wushuang was led by the green-robed woman into the bamboo forest and soon arrived at the center of the bamboo forest.

In the center of the bamboo forest, there was a clear and bottomless immortal lake. In the middle of the lake, there was a small island with a simple courtyard and a bamboo house. In front of the bamboo house, a black-robed woman was sitting there calmly, her eyes were staring at the lake in front of

her without blinking as if she had fallen into deep thought.

Even if Jian Wushuang and the green-clothed woman walked closer, the black-clothed woman did not react at all.

“Master, Heavenly Sword Marquis is here,” the green-clothed woman said softly.

Upon hearing this, the black-clothed woman slowly turned her head to look at Jian Wushuang.

Her delicate appearance was not absolutely beautiful, but it had a unique flavor. The black-clothed woman’s eyes were like a pool of stagnant water, without the slightest ripple.

“She is the spirit ancestor?” Jian Wushuang looked at the black-clothed woman in front of him. The moment his eyes met the black-clothed woman’s, Jian Wushuang felt a burst of astonishment in the depths of his soul, it was as if he had fallen into an extremely wonderful filling.

“The spirit ancestor’s attainments in the soul are extraordinary. Her every move can easily erode a person’s soul.” Jian Wushuang was secretly shocked.

If it were any other cultivator, even if they were stronger than Jian Wushuang, they would have to be careful when facing the spirit ancestor because the soul attack was silent and did not allow for the slightest reaction, if they were not careful, their souls might be destroyed or they would no longer

belong to them.

However, Jian Wushuang was different. Because of his different physique, the thing that Jian Wushuang was most afraid of was the soul attack.

“Heavenly Sword Marquis, greetings to spirit ancestor.” Jian Wushuang bowed humbly.

“A saint dares to look directly into my eyes without any fear. You are quite capable,” the black-clothed woman said softly.

“You flatter me, spirit ancestor,” Jian Wushuang said.

“Tell me, why did you come to me?” Spirit ancestor had already averted her eyes from Jian Wushuang.
