Chaotic Sword God

In the bustling city closest to the Radiant Saint Hall in the central region of the Desolate Plane, Jian Chen ordered a few small dishes. He was currently disguised as a middle-aged man. He sat in an extremely busy inn and tasted the dishes slowly. He stared out the window in the direction of the Radiant Saint Hall.

The inn had many customers. Not only were there cultivators from everywhere, but white-robed Radiant Saint Masters would come in from time to time as well.

Moreover, since the inn was one of the few high class inns in the city, the prices were extremely high. As a result, all the people who came here were wealthy. From how many of them dressed and acted, it was possible to tell that they came from large organisations with a single glance.

People from many organisations and a few disciples of the Radiant Saint Hall gathered together. They all got along extremely well. As a matter of fact, people dressed like representatives of large organisations would greet the Radiant Saint Masters they encountered with a face full of smiles. They did not act haughty at all.

Ever since the appearance of the protector swords, the Radiant Saint Hall’s status had greatly changed. Not only did they become the greatest organisation on the Desolate Plane all of a sudden, but they also became a target for many peak organizations to befriend. Many organisations beyond the Desolate Plane had sent people to visit them with rich gifts.

The city closest to the Radiant Saint Hall obviously became a place for these people to temporarily settle down.

Jian Chen glanced past the guests of the inn from time to time as he sat by the window. He could tell with a single glance that many of them were Godkings, and even Primordial realm experts would appear from time to time.

Moreover, that was not just this inn. He could clearly sense that there were many Primordial realm experts gathered within the city.

Of course, they were basically all Infinite Primes.

“The appearance of the six protector swords has made the Radiant Saint Hall the dominant force on the Desolate Plane, drawing in guests from everywhere. I wonder if the appearance of the protector swords is related with the Tower of Radiance?”

“Ever since I left the Radiant Saint Hall, I lost all contact with the artifact spirit. I wonder how he’s doing now…” Jian Chen sat by the window and drank by himself. He thought of many things. “I need to find a way into the Radiant Saint Hall and see teacher Han Xin or Donglin Yanxue. But since they’re wielders of protector swords now, their identities are completely different from before. Meeting them will probably be difficult…”

Jian Chen thought inside. It had already been seven days since his arrival. He did not try to infiltrate the Radiant Saint Hall recklessly during those seven days. Instead, he remained here, secretly investigating everything he could about the Radiant Saint Hall. He needed to understand who the wielders of the protector swords were.

However, the Radiant Saint Hall kept this information a strict secret. Apart from Donglin Yanxue and Han Xin, whose identities they had made public, very few people knew who the other four were.

“I heard that the Chosen Saint has returned to the Donglin clan again. Sigh, it’s all because of that Jian Chen. If it weren’t for him, the Chosen Saint would never distance herself so far from our Radiant Saint Hall…”

At this moment, the conversation between a few Radiant Saint Masters nearby caught Jian Chen’s attention.

“Although the Chosen Saint has become a protector, and her identity as Chosen Saint has been reinstated, I can clearly feel that the Chosen Saint doesn’t have a strong sense of belonging to our Radiant Saint Hall anymore…”

“It’s all because of Jian Chen. Hmph, Jian Chen concealed himself as Chang Yang and secretly infiltrated out Radiant Saint Hall, stealing away our supreme legacy. He’s utterly despicable. Even the Chosen Saint suffered because of him…”

“Isn’t that right? Although the Chosen Saint has become a protector of our Radiant Saint Hall, she feels guilt because of how she worked with Chang Yang when they went to the World of Moon and Star. She no longer feels that she can stay in the Radiant Saint Hall, which is why she remains in the Donglin clan most of the time…”

…

These Radiant Saint Masters were not powerful. They were all either Gods or Overgods. They discussed fearlessly as they enjoyed the delicious food. They would glance at the eavesdropping people of great status in the surroundings from time to time, and they slightly struggled to conceal their pride.

The Radiant Saint Hall had become the greatest organisation on the Desolate Plane, so their regular disciples all gained a sense of supremacy.

“Donglin Yanxue is in the Donglin clan?” Jian Chen was immediately interested. After a moment of thought, he tossed out some supreme grade divine crystals, stood up, and left.

Visiting Donglin Yanxue in the Donglin clan was slightly easier than infiltrating the Radiant Saint Hall.

The Donglin clan was a peak organisation on the Desolate Plane because their ancestor, Donglin Ce, was a Grand Prime.

However, he had only broken through recently.

The Donglin clan was not located in the central region. Instead, it was in the western region, within the territory of a place called the Wilderness Empire.

The Wilderness Empire was among the handful of everlasting empires on the Desolate Plane. They possessed a vast territory and ruled over the western region.

At this moment, there was a flash within Donglin City in the Wilderness Empire. Jian Chen had directly arrived in the western region through a regional teleportation formation.

Donglin City originally possessed a different name. However, after the ancestor of the Donglin clan, Donglin Ce, broke through, the city was bestowed upon the Donglin clan by the Wilderness Empire. Is name was changed to Donglin City. It was no longer under the rule of the Wilderness Empire, becoming the personal property of the Donglin clan.

Their status was equivalent to the Dong’an provincial city in the Pingtian Empire.

The Donglin clan ruled over the Donglin City.

As soon as Jian Chen arrived in Donglin City, he made his way to the Donglin clan.

Everyone knew where the Donglin clan was within Donglin City. He did not even have to investigate it to find its location.

This was because the current Donglin clan was extremely busy. A few visitors from various places would basically gather at the entrance every day.

Even some princes of the Wilderness Empire would come regularly with rich gifts.

Of course, the Donglin clan was rather different from the Radiant Saint Hall. All the visiting organisations would bring their most outstanding juniors along. There were quite a few princes from the other everlasting empires on the Desolate Plane as well.

Their intentions were obvious.

“Your highness, you’ve come again. If you want to meet our patriarch, you’re more than welcome to, but if you want to meet the young lady, it’s not like you don’t know her temperament…”

“Young master Yan, I must apologise. Our young lady is cultivating. She has specially passed on the message that she’s not meeting anyone…”

“How about this, young master Zilin? I’ll accept your gift for the young lady for now, and I’ll pass on your message to her. However, I can’t guarantee whether the young lady will want to see you…”

…

Before he had even gotten close to the Donglin clan, Jian Chen saw many handsome young men in luxurious clothes gathered there. All of their origins were impressive, and they possessed great status. They all wished to see Donglin Yanxue.

Jian Chen immediately frowned at the sight of this. It seems like meeting Donglin Yanxue would not be as easy as he had originally imagined.
