373: Follow me!

Right now, he felt nothing but jealousy and resentment toward his own Saint and Saintess!

"You two! Can you not be more capable?!"

"The Heavenly Sword Sect Disciples provoked you, fine, you killed them, whatever. But what happened? You left behind evidence and let them come knocking on our door!"

"Not only that, but as soon as they arrived, they encountered this peerless Prodigy!"

"Now look at this, they're letting me set any conditions just to take the person away!"

"How can that be allowed?"

"But since we were already in the wrong for killing their Disciples, things were now troublesome!"

Duanmu Yu cast a gloomy glance at his Saint and Saintess.

The two of them felt their bodies tremble.

"We're done for!"

"Our Holy Lord seems to be looking for trouble!"

The Saint, named Gu Yunzhe, had a handsome Face, wore green robes, and possessed an excellent temperament. He also possessed an Innate Dao Body, his cultivation had already reached the Purple Mansion, and he was a descendant of Emperor Blood. He was Innate and extremely powerful; in terms of talent, strength, and all other aspects, he was worthy of the title of Saint.

The Saintess, named Liu Yao, was just like her name suggested. With a pretty Face, a light green long dress, and a voluptuous figure with curves in all the right places, her willow-like waist was extremely enchanting. She also possessed a special Physique.

The two had previously encountered Heavenly Sword Sect Disciples in that Secret Realm.

Both were of the Human Race and the Righteous Path, but they came to blows over an Opportunity. In the process, the Heavenly Sword Sect Disciples wanted to kill them.

They even angrily cursed the Flying Feather Holy Sect Disciples.

In a fit of rage, the two killed them directly.

They hadn't expected that a Heavenly Sword Sect Disciple was secretly recording this with a crystal stone at the time. Otherwise, they would have silenced them, and the others wouldn't have been able to come knocking.

Now, looking at the Holy Lord's little glare, it was definitely malicious. They didn't know what kind of punishment they would have to endure later.

The most aggrieved was the Saint, Gu Yunzhe. Good grief, the Holy Lord had just said to his Face that he wanted to strip him of his position as Saint.

He admitted that the youth in the bronze mirror was indeed terrifyingly strong, but please, Holy Lord, could you not do this behind people's backs?!

"Just say it behind my back and be done with it. Why do you have to say it to my Face? Don't I need some Face?"

Boom!

Just as everyone was lost in their own thoughts, the doors of the Holy Lord Hall opened, and Elder Li, with a Face full of joy, brought Lin Ye into the hall.

As soon as he entered, Elder Li couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Hahahaha, Holy Lord! Look, look at what kind of Prodigy I've found for the Sect. This Lin Ye, he... Hmm?"

Before Elder Li could finish his sentence, he saw that everyone in the hall was staring intently at him.

Or rather than staring at him, they were staring at Lin Ye behind him.

Looking at the bronze mirror again, Elder Li immediately understood what had happened.

"Oh no!"

The burning expressions of Wang Jianyi and those Heavenly Sword Sect Elders clearly said they wanted to snatch the person away!

Thinking of this, Elder Li directly blocked Lin Ye's figure and said vigilantly, "Fellow Daoists of the Heavenly Sword Sect, what is the meaning of these looks? Let me make it clear first, this Lin Ye is our..."

Swish, swish, swish...

Before he could finish, the Heavenly Sword Sect Elders surrounded Lin Ye one by one.

"This child... as expected! A true Prodigy! I have never seen this kind of Sword Intent on anyone of the younger generation!"

"That's right! If we give this child to their Flying Feather Holy Sect, wouldn't that be a pearl covered in dust? He must come to our Sect!"

"Only our Heavenly Sword Sect can nurture such a Prodigy. As for this Flying Feather Holy Sect, heh... forgive me for being blunt, their Dao of the sword is a complete mess!"

"Have you noticed that this child seems to possess some kind of Physique as well!"

"Never mind what kind of Physique, just this Upright Qi alone—if he were to cultivate the Haoran Sword, wouldn't that be incredible?!"

"..."

When the many old men first surrounded him, Lin Ye thought he had been exposed and subconsciously placed his hand on his qiankun ring.

But he suddenly realized that although they had surrounded him, they had no intention of attacking. Furthermore, based on what they were saying, it seemed they just wanted him to join the Heavenly Sword Sect.

The Heavenly Sword Sect...

Lin Ye had learned a lot about the Great Thousand Domains from Mo Yunshang, and he had also learned about this Heavenly Sword Sect.

As a Holy Land of the Righteous Path, it was no weaker than the Flying Feather Holy Sect, and it was even more formidable in terms of the Dao of the sword.

He didn't know if it was because all their Disciples practiced the sword, but the reputation of their Sect... seemed not very good.

The assessment of those Sword Cultivators was always that they were a bunch of lunatics who would drool even after being cured.

Now that he saw it with his own eyes, it was indeed extremely... intense.

Wang Jianyi pushed through the crowd, bypassed Elder Li, and came directly in front of Lin Ye. His eyes were almost spitting fire as he stared intently at Lin Ye.

He said in a hoarse voice, "Your name is Lin Ye, right? Come with me, and I will give you whatever you want."

"What?!"

Lin Ye's eyes almost popped out.

What did that mean? Come with him, and he'd get whatever he wanted?

Did this old geezer think he was someone else?

He thought he was going to teach him swordplay, but instead, this guy wanted to fence with me?!

"Ahem..."

Sensing the strange looks from those around him, Wang Jianyi coughed twice, his old Face flushing red. "That's not what I meant. I mean, as long as you join our Heavenly Sword Sect, I guarantee the position of Sword Heir will be yours. Not only that, whatever resources you need, I will provide!"

"If the Sect doesn't have it, I'll go and snatch it for you! I guarantee that your talent for the Dao of the sword will be completely unleashed!"

"Bullshit!!!"

Before Lin Ye could answer, Duanmu Yu hurried forward.

If he didn't speak up now, his own cabbage was going to be snatched away!

"Lin Ye, don't listen to his nonsense. Come, join my Sect. Weren't you here to pay a visit to the mountain? Congratulations, you've passed!"

"Heh..."

Facing Duanmu Yu's urgency, Wang Jianyi was completely unperturbed and sneered, "What can you give him? Resources? Or sword techniques? What do you have? What are you?!"

"Your Sect already has a Saint and a Saintess, so how can you waste resources to nurture Lin Ye?"

When he said this, Wang Jianyi looked at Lin Ye again and said in a deep voice, "As long as you join our Heavenly Sword Sect, you will be the Sword Heir, a unique existence in the entire Sect. Once your cultivation is successful, I can even pass on my position as Holy Lord to you!"

"I see you don't have any suitable Magic Treasure, so how about this!"

As he spoke, Wang Jianyi took out his Life-Bound Holy Weapon from his qiankun ring!

He handed it directly to Lin Ye.

"This mere Holy Sword is yours. As long as you enter my Sect, it will be no problem to get you an Ultimate Emperor Weapon in the future!"

"You dare snatch my person!!!"

Duanmu Yu's eyes widened, his body trembling with anger.

He didn't expect that Wang Jianyi would be so shameless.

They had agreed earlier that they would see where Lin Ye wanted to go, and he would agree to it. But what happened? This old guy started using material inducements directly!
