Eternal Immortal Clan: It All Started When I Married My Junior Sister!

58: Old dog, die!His words, seemingly fair, were actually just muddying the waters.

Not only did he excuse the Xu Family, but he also lightly dismissed Chen Daochu’s merit in saving someone with a phrase like ”merits and demerits cancel each other out.”

Ancestor Qingzhu’s brows furrowed for the first time.

He coldly stared at these three uninvited ”fellow Disciples,” and said in a deep voice, ”You mean, I handled this incorrectly?”

”Senior Brother, you exaggerate.”

Ancestor Potian shook his head. ”We just feel that it’s not worth it to harm the harmony within the Sect for a few Juniors. The Xu Family has extensive connections behind them, so Senior Brother should reconsider.”

There was already a hint of threat in his words.

Chen Daoxuan stood below, taking all of this in.

He looked at those three hypocritical Nascent Soul Ancestors, his heart filled with ice.

He understood.

This Qingyun Immortal Sect, from its very roots, was already rotten.

The so-called Sect rules, the so-called justice.

In front of the interests and personal connections of these important figures, they were nothing more than empty words.

Just then, Ancestor Potian’s gaze.

Suddenly fell upon the azure sword in Chen Daoxuan’s hand.

His originally casual eyes sharply narrowed.

A look of surprise and uncertainty appeared on his face.

”Eh? This sword...”

His figure flickered, completely ignoring everyone, and instantly appeared in front of Chen Daoxuan.

He stared intently at the sword in his hand.

Chen Daoxuan’s heart tightened, and he subconsciously gripped the sword hilt.

”Young man, let this Old Ancestor see your sword.”

Ancestor Potian’s tone carried an undeniable command.

His gaze was full of greed.

”Junior Brother!”

Ancestor Qingzhu’s face darkened, and he was about to stop him.

”Senior Brother Qingzhu, don’t be anxious.”

Ancestor Potian said without turning his head, ”I just feel that this sword looks familiar, it seems... it’s a supreme treasure that our Sect lost many years ago!”

Supreme Treasure!?

As these words came out, the entire audience was in an uproar.

Everyone’s gaze.

All focused on Chen Daoxuan’s seemingly unremarkable azure longsword.

”If this Old Ancestor isn’t mistaken...”

”This sword should be the personal sword used by our Qingyun Immortal Sect’s founding Ancestral Master back then—the myriad ages azure cloud sword!”

myriad ages azure cloud sword!

The founding Ancestral Master’s personal sword!

This news was even more shocking than the simultaneous appearance of the four Old Ancestors!

That was a legendary Spirit Treasure!

A supreme treasure capable of suppressing a Sect’s Luck!

”That’s right, it is the myriad ages azure cloud sword!”

Ancestor Yunliu and Ancestor Ziri also gathered around.

They looked at the ancient patterns on the sword body and the terrifying Sword Intent that lay hidden.

Their faces also showed expressions of wild joy.

”Truly heaven blesses our Sect! The myriad ages azure cloud sword, lost for a thousand years, has actually reappeared!”

Chen Daoxuan’s heart sank to the bottom.

”This young friend.”

Ancestor Potian turned his head, forcing a benevolent smile, and looked at Chen Daoxuan: ”This sword is a sacred artifact of our Sect. May I ask where you obtained it?”

Chen Daoxuan was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke: ”This sword was given to this Junior in an Immortal Cave by a Senior who has already passed away.”

This was an unverifiable excuse.

After all, he couldn’t possibly say it was given by a Purple Mansion Dao Lord, could he?

”So that’s how it is.”

Ancestor Potian nodded, an expression of ’I knew it’ on his face.

He exchanged glances with the other two Old Ancestors, then cleared his throat and loudly announced to Chen Daoxuan and all the Sect Disciples: ”Chen Daoxuan has recovered the Sect’s sacred artifact, a great merit!”

”This Old Ancestor announces that all previous grievances are hereby nullified!”

”As for Xu Jinhe and Ma Yuanshan, out of consideration for past ties, they are reinstated to their original positions! This matter ends here!”

With a wave of his hand, he directly overturned all of Ancestor Qingzhu’s previous judgments.

He forcibly brought the matter to a close.

Xu Jinhe and Ma Yuanshan were overjoyed to hear this.

They quickly scrambled up and kowtowed to the three Old Ancestors to express their gratitude.

Liu Feifei and the others, however, turned pale, filled with unwillingness, yet helpless.

In front of the three Nascent Soul Ancestors, they didn’t even have the right to speak.

Chen Daochu, behind Chen Daoxuan, clenched his fists, making cracking sounds.

Rage almost burst forth from his eyes.

Chen Daoxuan, however, raised his hand and pressed it on his shoulder.

He looked at these hypocritical old fellows in front of him, and gave a cold smile.

”Alright, since the matter is settled.”

Ancestor Potian’s tone shifted, and he looked at Chen Daoxuan again, saying as a matter of course, ”Chen Daoxuan, since you are a Disciple of our Sect and have recovered the sacred artifact, it should be returned to its rightful owner.”

”Now, hand over the myriad ages azure cloud sword. The Sect will not treat you unfairly.”

Finally, the fox revealed its tail.

All that elaborate setup, the exoneration and praise, the ultimate goal was for the sword in his hand.

”What if I don’t hand it over?”

Chen Daoxuan looked at him and asked calmly.

The smile on Ancestor Potian’s face stiffened, and he frowned: ”Young man, what do you mean? This is a sacred artifact of the Sect, how can you, an outer Disciple, possess it privately?”

”Outer Disciple?”

Chen Daoxuan laughed, a somewhat sarcastic laugh: ”Just now you said I was a Sect Disciple, and now, to snatch a treasure, I’ve become an outer Disciple?”

”I only know that this sword was given by a Senior and is now my Lifebound Treasure, connected to my Divine Soul, and cannot be handed over!”

”As for what you call a Sect sacred artifact...”

Chen Daoxuan’s gaze swept over the three greedy old men, his tone turning cold: ”In my opinion, how is your behavior any different from those bandits who tried to snatch Opportunities and were killed by my Junior Brother earlier?”

As these words came out, the entire place fell silent!

Everyone looked at Chen Daoxuan as if he were a madman.

He actually dared to point at the noses of three Nascent Soul Ancestors in public.

And call them robbers!

”Impudent!”

Ancestor Potian was furious, and the terrifying pressure of the Nascent Soul Realm burst forth, pressing down heavily on Chen Daoxuan.

”Little beast! You’re asking for trouble! You refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit!”

”Today, whether you hand over this sword or not, you will hand it over!”

However, his pressure had not yet fully descended.

It was blocked by another, stronger will.

Ancestor Qingzhu stepped forward, standing in front of Chen Daoxuan. He looked at Ancestor Potian and the other two, and for the first time, disappointment and anger appeared in his eyes.

”Enough!”

”In front of all the Sect Disciples, you are openly snatching a Junior’s Opportunity. Do you still have any shame left?!”

A storm that had just subsided, escalated again because of a sword.

This time, it was a rift between Nascent Soul Ancestors!

However, these three had long been blinded by the word ”Spirit Treasure.”

”Senior Brother Qingzhu, you can’t say that!”

Ancestor Potian’s face darkened, his tone firm: ”The myriad ages azure cloud sword is the personal sword of our Sect’s founding Ancestral Master, it is a sacred artifact of our Sect! For a sacred artifact to return, it should naturally be kept by the Sect. How can you call it snatching?”

”That’s right!”

Ancestor Yunliu echoed, ”This child retrieving the sacred artifact is already a great merit, and the Sect will naturally reward him. But if he tries to keep the sacred artifact for himself, then he harbors ill intentions and is disrespecting his Ancestors!”

”Hahahaha, a little Foundation Establishment Stage brat holding a Spirit Treasure, is that a blessing? That’s a death warrant!”

Ancestor Ziri said with a chuckle.

But his eyes were full of greed: ”We are also protecting him.”

The three Nascent Soul Ancestors, one after another, directly redefined ”snatching” as ”returning to its rightful owner” and ”protecting the Disciple.”

Shameless!

Absolutely shameless to the extreme!

Elder Yuan Chuliu trembled with anger, and Liu Feifei and the others were filled with grief and indignation.

They never imagined that within the Sect, the high-ranking and powerful Nascent Soul Ancestors would be such shameless scoundrels who twisted black and white!

Chen Daoxuan stood behind Ancestor Qingzhu, silently watching this ugly scene.

His heart had completely grown cold.

This Sect, from top to bottom, was rotten to its core.

The so-called justice, the so-called Sect rules, in the face of absolute self-interest, were nothing but a joke.

It seemed as if he was about to rush forward regardless of everything.

He raised his hand and gently pressed his Junior Brother’s shoulder.

Then, he stepped forward, out of Ancestor Qingzhu’s protective range.

”Dao Xuan!”

Ancestor Qingzhu’s expression changed, and he wanted to pull him back.

Chen Daoxuan, however, shook his head at him.

”Old Ancestor, thank you for your protection.”

”But for today’s matter, this Junior wishes to resolve it himself.”

Resolve it himself?

A Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator, wanting to resolve three Nascent Soul Ancestors himself?

Everyone thought he had gone mad.

Ancestor Qingzhu looked into his eyes, and suddenly sighed in his heart.

He surprisingly didn’t stop him anymore.

Chen Daoxuan’s gaze slowly swept over the greedy faces of Ancestor Potian, Yunliu, and Ziri.

A surge of killing intent wildly grew in his heart.

He remembered his father’s teachings.

He remembered the Family’s future.

Qingyun Immortal Sect... very good!

From today onwards, this so-called prestigious righteous Sect will either be completely flattened by my Chen Family!

Or, it will become a vassal of my Chen Family!

He slowly raised the myriad ages azure cloud sword in his hand.

The sword tip pointed directly at Ancestor Potian opposite him.

”Old dog.”

Chen Daoxuan’s voice was not loud, but it clearly echoed across the entire plaza.

”Don’t you want this sword?”

”Come and get it.”

As these words came out, the entire place fell silent!

Everyone looked at Chen Daoxuan with eyes that saw a dead man.

He actually dared to publicly provoke a Nascent Soul Ancestor!

”Little beast! You’re courting death!”

Ancestor Potian was completely enraged.

He no longer bothered to pretend, and the terrifying killing intent of the Nascent Soul Realm burst forth without reservation!

”This Old Ancestor will kill you first today, then retrieve the sacred artifact!”

Chen Daoxuan faced the terrifying pressure that could crush mountains.

But a strange smile appeared on his face.

”I’m just very curious...”

His voice echoed eerily, carrying a hint of madness.

”I wonder if this legendary Spirit Treasure can... slay you, this Nascent Soul old dog!”

Boom!

These words, like a clap of thunder, exploded in everyone’s minds!

He wanted to kill a Nascent Soul!

He, a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator, actually dared to dream of killing a Nascent Soul Ancestor!

”Arrogant!”

Ancestor Potian laughed in extreme anger.

He stopped wasting words, suddenly raised his hand, and a hundred-meter giant palm formed by majestic Spiritual Qi.

Instantly took shape in the sky.

On that giant palm, Dao principles flowed, runes flickered, carrying a terrifying power that could crush everything.

It pressed down fiercely towards Chen Daoxuan!

He held nothing back in this strike!

He wanted to crush this ignorant brat into dust!

”Not good!” Ancestor Qingzhu’s face changed dramatically, and he immediately made a move.

”Senior Brother Qingzhu, your opponents are us!”

Ancestor Yunliu and Ancestor Ziri instantly flashed.

One on the left and one on the right, they firmly blocked Ancestor Qingzhu.

The terrifying palm print, covering the sky, pressed down with a roar!

Under that terrifying pressure, Chen Daoxuan felt cracks appearing in all the bones in his body.

His skin cracked inch by inch, and blood instantly stained his clothes.

Crimson blood oozed from all five orifices!

But he still stood ramrod straight, the hand holding the sword as steady as a rock!

The divine light in his eyes, at this moment, shone to its extreme!

”Open for me...!”

A roar from the depths of his Soul!

Chen Daoxuan poured all the Spiritual Qi in his body, and even his Divine Soul power, recklessly into the myriad ages azure cloud sword in his hand!

Buzz—!

The ancient azure longsword, at this moment, seemed to awaken from its slumber!

A clear sword cry echoed through the nine heavens!

Immediately after, an indescribably brilliant sword light.

Erupted from the sword tip!

The sword light was not dazzling, even somewhat dim.

But the moment it appeared, all the light in the world seemed to be swallowed by it.

Time and space, at this moment, seemed to stand still.

That seemingly dim sword light, surged upwards.

Silently met the hundred-meter giant palm.

Accompanied by an earth-shattering roar!

The moment the sword light and the giant palm met, massive Spiritual Qi fluctuations exploded in all directions!

Finally transforming into countless specks of light, dissipating into nothingness.

And that sword light, after shattering the palm print, its power undiminished.

Still shot towards Ancestor Potian in the sky!

”What?!”

The ferocious smile on Ancestor Potian’s face instantly froze.

Replaced by endless horror!

From that sword light, he felt a terrifying power that could threaten his life!

”Damn it!”

He no longer dared to be complacent in the slightest, his hands suddenly clasped together in front of him.

An ancient shield, transformed from his Lifebound Treasure, instantly appeared.

At the same time, Ancestor Yunliu and Ancestor Ziri beside him also noticed that something was wrong.

The two exchanged glances, and without hesitation, struck simultaneously!

Two equally vast Nascent Soul magical powers transformed into two light screens, superimposed on the ancient shield!

Three Nascent Soul Ancestors, defending together!

Boom!!!

The sword light finally struck the three layers of defense!

A deafening roar finally erupted!

A terrifying energy storm, centered on the point of impact.

Swept wildly outwards!

The floor tiles of the entire plaza were instantly blown away, turning into dust!

The surrounding Disciples, caught in the blast, were sent flying backwards with screams, like fallen leaves in a gale.

Those with weaker cultivation instantly fainted.

Even the Golden Core Elders on the high platform were forced to retreat repeatedly, their faces filled with shock!

Crack! A crisp sound!

The first layer, the light screen set up by Ancestor Ziri, shattered in response!

Crack!

The second layer, Ancestor Yunliu’s light screen, followed closely behind!

Finally, that sword light fiercely struck Ancestor Potian’s Lifebound ancient shield!

”Clang—!”

A loud clang of metal!

Ancestor Potian was hit as if by a heavy hammer, and he violently spat out a large mouthful of fresh blood.

His figure awkwardly flew backwards for hundreds of feet before he barely managed to stabilize himself.

He looked down, and on his Lifebound Magic Treasure, the ancient shield, there was actually a sword mark so deep it reached the bone!

Its spirituality was greatly damaged!

And that sword light, too, finally exhausted all its power and dissipated into the air.
