172: Chapter 172 Taiqing Sword Sect, Chen Yan, has come to ask for a sword consultation!

Leng Qingshuang's lips curled up slightly, a hint of amusement on her face.

"To go to Youzhou, one should head straight north; yet these Sects are all located to the south. Are you sure it's on the way?"

She glanced at Chen Yan and said indifferently, "In this Revered Master's opinion, it's just that you want to go yourself!"

"The road is beneath our feet, how can it not be on the way?"

Chen Yan pouted, speaking with righteous indignation, "At worst, at worst we'll just take a detour and then come back~"

Anyway, in short, these three Sects were a must-visit!

The Sect Head gave him the taiqing heaven-patrol token; wasn't that exactly what he meant?

The Taiqing Sword Sect never had the habit of suffering in silence!

Leng Qingshuang glared at her Rebellious Disciple in annoyance, but she was also well aware of Su Wenjian's arrangements!

Did these Sects really think the Taiqing Sword Sect could no longer draw its sword?

They had hunted her Rebellious Disciple all the way; it was indeed time to settle the score!

She gently rested her hand on the hilt of the shuanghua sword, a strand of Sword Intent lingering around her body.

"This Revered Master will accompany you for a tour then!"

Chen Yan was instantly overjoyed upon hearing this.

"As expected, Revered Master definitely has me in her heart!"

"She can't stand to see me being bullied!"

He gave a cheer and directly summoned the Somersault Cloud, patting it into the shape of a chair with his hand, and pulled his Revered Master to sit on it!

When it came to creating things with clouds, he was practically self-taught.

The Revered Master and Disciple pair sat on the Somersault Cloud, instantly turning into a streak of light and leaving the peak of the Ninth Peak!

In the Sect Main Hall.

Su Wenjian looked in the direction where Chen Yan and Leng Qingshuang had departed and couldn't help but let out a light chuckle.

"He really is someone who seeks revenge for the smallest grievance! This kid's desire for revenge truly cannot wait for a single moment!"

The Peak Revered Master of Talisman Sword Peak, Guo Fengyi, frowned, unable to understand the Sect Head's series of moves.

"Sect Head Senior Brother, you trust this kid that much? Aren't you afraid he'll use the token to act recklessly?"

His question was also the question of the other Peak Revered Masters.

Su Wenjian stood with his hands behind his back, looking up at the horizon.

Clouds rolled and unfurled in the sky, and the sun shone brightly.

"What do you mean by acting recklessly?"

Su Wenjian chuckled. "If one is wronged and only dares to hide in the back mountains and cry, is that not acting recklessly?"

"Being hunted all the way and not daring to fight back, is that not acting recklessly?"

Guo Fengyi gave a bitter smile and was about to explain, "But in doing this, it's inevitable that people will criticize us, saying we are the big bullying the small!"

Unexpectedly, Su Wenjian looked at him strangely. "What do you mean by the big bullying the small?"

"Those shameless bastards hunted a Nascent Soul Stage Disciple and actually sent out several experts of the Dharma Image Realm!"

"Are they not the big bullying the small?"

"And I am merely letting Chen Yan follow his own heart, giving him the right to seek justice. Who would dare to criticize?"

Beside him, the Peak Revered Master of Baoqi Peak, Ma Yi, scratched his stubble-covered face and shouted as if it were a matter of course:

"The Sect Head is right!"

"Why is it that others can hit us, but we can't hit them?"

"A righteous Sect shouldn't be a punching bag either!"

"However..."

He changed his tone and leaned in toward Su Wenjian, his honest-looking face full of curiosity. "Sect Head, are you sure you want him to be the Young Sect Master of Taiqing? No regrets?"

Young Sect Master of Taiqing was a more formal title than Taiqing Successor!

Once confirmed, he would be the next Taiqing Sect Master!

Without exception!

The rest of the people instantly pricked up their ears, looking at Su Wenjian with piercing eyes, waiting for his answer.

But Su Wenjian only laughed softly and asked indifferently, "What do you all think?"

Bah!

Old fox!

Everyone cursed in their hearts, rolled their eyes at him, and none of them took the bait!

The Young Sect Master of Taiqing wasn't a position just anyone could hold!

One must have strength, means, and must be able to win the respect of the masses!

To make the Peak Revered Masters convinced and have the Sect Disciples' support!

Chen Yan seemed like a Prodigy, but after all...

He was too young!

He lacked experience, lacked connections, and lacked the personal charisma to make people follow him!

And!

In everyone's minds, a name instantly surfaced:

Commander of the Demon Suppressing Great Wall!

The First Peak's Chief Disciple of the Taiqing Sword Sect!

Ranked first on the hidden dragon ranking!

An unparalleled Prodigy who could slay a Body Integration expert as a Nascent Soul!

...

In the sky, the sea of clouds churned.

Leng Qingshuang sat upright on the cloud chair formed by the Somersault Cloud, her posture elegant and her Immortal Qi fluttering.

Chen Yan stood to the side, his eyes unable to stop falling upon his Revered Master!

As the saying goes: a single glance is respect for a beauty!

Then if I keep looking, I am showing constant respect!

He thought shamelessly in his heart.

Besides, Revered Master's profile, her figure, her temperament!

If I don't look, there'll be no one to appreciate it. Wouldn't that be a waste?

Waste is shameful, don't you understand!

Leng Qingshuang listened to her Rebellious Disciple's outrageous thoughts and felt his burning gaze; her earlobes turned slightly red.

Rebellious Disciple!

Truly shameless!

He never misses a chance to take advantage in his mind!

Hmph!

A total lecher!

She shifted her legs slightly to the side and sat up straighter, making her proud peaks even more prominent!

"Pfft~"

Chen Yan almost couldn't hold back his saliva.

He hurriedly raised his head, looking at the sky at a 45-degree angle, pretending he hadn't seen anything.

Because of this, he didn't see the slight curl at the corners of his Revered Master's beautiful face.

Heh!

Has the lecherous heart, but lacks the lecherous courage!

Time faded with the wind amidst the push and pull between Revered Master and Disciple.

Under the divine speed of the Somersault Cloud, in just one hour, the mountain gate of the Zhenwu Sect appeared before their eyes.

Looking at the black-and-gold plaque on the Zhenwu Sect's mountain gate, which faintly flowed with a towering Fist Intent.

A fierce light instantly flashed in Chen Yan's eyes.

Finally here!

You hunted me for so long; today, it's time to pay the debt!

Without a word, his face cold, he leaped directly from the Somersault Cloud!

With a thought, the brand-new Imperial Rank spirit sword "senior spare my life" was instantly gripped in his hand!

"Broken Edge Spirit Slash!"

With a light shout, a golden sword light soared into the sky from the Imperial Sword in his hand!

The Gengjin sharp glow burst through the air, crossing the horizon in an instant, and slashed straight down toward the Zhenwu Sect's mountain gate plaque!

Boom!

The Gengjin Sword Qi was specialized in breaking wood-attributed objects!

Coupled with the suppression of an Imperial Rank spirit sword over lower-ranked Magic Treasures, Chen Yan's sword strike was like a rainbow, silently slicing through the mountain gate plaque!

Like a knife through tofu, the Zhenwu Sect gatehouse that had stood for thousands of years instantly turned into a pile of debris!

For a moment, the commotion was immense, and dust filled the air.

Chen Yan landed steadily, and as he stepped down, he happened to step on the black plaque carved with the words "Zhenwu" which had been broken in half.

He looked up at the stunned Zhenwu Sect guard Disciples on both sides, holding his long sword high, the sound of the sword's hum echoing through the clouds.

"Taiqing Sword Sect, Chen Yan, here to challenge the sword!"
