You said that Lord Sword Immortal is the disciple of your benefactor?
Zhong Qing came in a hurry and left in a hurry!
In the small courtyard, Sword Spiriter looked at Zhong Qing's departing figure and once again became lost in thought.
Zhong Qing's appearance and disappearance made her feel: from afar, the world is like a fleeting snow; up close, it's a dream!
If Gu Chenxian's appearance had amazed Sword Spiriter's world, then Zhong Qing's existence undoubtedly amazed her years.
This day!
Sword Spiriter stood by the lake for a very, very long time!
So long that the sun set and the bright moon rose, only then did she suddenly come back to her senses.
The human world is always full of joys and sorrows; she looked at the bright moon in the sky, unable to tell whether she was more happy or sad at this moment.
But in any case, the benefactor's kindness, she probably wouldn't be able to repay in this lifetime!
Thinking of this, Sword Spiriter looked at the Legacy in her hand.
She had brought one, but not only did she not give it away, she even received an additional one.
Moreover, the Half-step Supreme Legacy she brought was not on the same level as the Sword Immortal Inheritance at all.
Sword Spiriter hadn't expected that such a Legacy would fall into her hands in such a way.
This feeling was quite wonderful.
Under the moonlight, the young girl finally left with the moonlight.
Her Master's kindness to her was as heavy as a mountain; for such a big matter, she naturally had to inform her Master.
...
The bright moon hung in the sky, with stars dotting the firmament.
In a delicate mansion, Peak Lord Shi Ying, the Peak Master of Lingjian Sect, was drinking alone under the moon on a stone bench in the courtyard.
Although this trip to the Sword Tomb brought no gains for Lingjian Sect as a whole or for him personally.
He felt that this trip was completely worthwhile.
Not only could he see the Sword Immortal's demeanor from afar, but they also contributed to the True Domain's first Emperor-grade Divine Weapon.
Drinking alone, he became more and more intoxicated.
Soon, several wine jars were already placed on the stone table in front of him.
Just as he was drinking with gusto, Sword Spiriter stepped into the small courtyard, whose gate was wide open, under the moonlight.
"Ling'er, why are you here?"
Peak Lord Shi Ying looked at Sword Spiriter's figure and asked in surprise.
"Master, the benefactor has left!"
Under the moonlight, in front of the stone table, Sword Spiriter said with some sadness.
This made Peak Lord Shi Ying slightly stunned.
In fact, he didn't know much about Zhong Qing.
He only knew that this was a man of extraordinary appearance and temperament, with a touch of mystery.
Sword Spiriter also liked being with him very much.
He had always turned a blind eye to this, after all, the former had saved the latter's life.
Moreover, through his observation, Zhong Qing's Heart-Nature was not bad, calm and collected, with a sense of otherworldly transcendence.
If something could happen between the two of them, he would be happy to see it.
But now it seemed that things were not as he had thought.
Although Sword Spiriter and Peak Lord Shi Ying were Master and Disciple, Peak Lord Shi Ying had always treated her like his own child, no different from a biological daughter.
Now seeing her sad, he immediately put down his wine pot and quickly comforted her with a smile.
"If he left, he left!"
"There is no banquet that doesn't end; if it's fated, you'll meet again in the future."
His comfort actually made Sword Spiriter even more sad.
"I won't see him again!"
"In this life, I'm afraid it will be difficult to meet the benefactor again."
"How could this be?"
This time, Peak Lord Shi Ying was even more puzzled.
"The benefactor is not from this domain; this trip to the True Domain was only to take a Disciple. Now that he has taken a Disciple, he is probably already on his way to leave the True Domain!"
Peak Lord Shi Ying was inwardly astonished.
He only knew that Zhong Qing was somewhat mysterious.
But he really didn't know that the other party was actually from another domain.
Those who can cross two domains generally have no simple background.
This could only mean that his precious Disciple and him were fated but not meant to be.
He secretly sighed in regret, as he truly thought highly of Zhong Qing as a potential son-in-law in his heart.
After pondering for a moment, he smacked his lips and said to Sword Spiriter: "If he's gone, he's gone!"
"Although he saved your life, we gave him a Half-step Supreme Legacy, which can be considered repaying the life-saving kindness."
"Disciple, you should know that there are countless young talents in the world, like carp crossing the river; you don't need to constantly think about him."
"Everything needs to look forward, and you shouldn't be immersed in the past, unable to extricate yourself!"
These words made Sword Spiriter a little confused.
"Master, what are you talking about!"
"Moreover, I didn't give away the Half-step Supreme Legacy at all."
Peak Lord Shi Ying was puzzled: "Oh? Why is that?"
"Because he doesn't need it at all!"
"Moreover, not only did he not accept our intention to give, but the benefactor's Disciple instead gave me a great gift."
"What did he give you?"
He said somewhat indifferently.
"Here, this!"
Sword Spiriter placed the received Legacy Jade Slip on the stone table.
Seeing that it was also a Legacy item, Peak Lord Shi Ying frowned slightly.
He had asked his precious Disciple to give a Half-step Supreme Legacy, which was an expression of gratitude for saving a life.
Not only did the other party not accept it, but he even had a Disciple send a Legacy back.
What did this mean?
Was he looking down on the gift he gave?
Even if his background was truly grand and he didn't care for the Half-step Supreme Legacy, he shouldn't be so insulting!
As he frowned, he used his Divine Sense to look into the Legacy Jade Slip.
He wanted to see how extraordinary the Legacy the other party sent was, that it looked down on the Half-step Supreme Legacy he gave.
The next moment!
After he saw a corner of the true contents within the Legacy Jade Slip, his pupils instantly constricted, and he himself was so shocked that he directly jumped up from his spot.
"Sword Immortal Inheritance!"
"It's actually the Sword Immortal Inheritance!"
"How could it be the Sword Immortal Inheritance?"
His face turned pale then flushed, and his blood in this moment surged like rivers, lakes, and seas, flowing vigorously.
Shock, surprise, confusion, ecstasy, and many other emotions surged into his heart simultaneously.
After all, this was the Sword Immortal Inheritance!
The Sword Immortal Inheritance that the entire True Domain desired.
Yet at this moment, such an unparalleled treasure was lying alive right in front of him.
Even Peak Lord Shi Ying, who had always prided himself on remaining calm when mountains collapsed and the Yellow River burst its banks, was completely moved at this moment.
Facing her Master's undignified inquiry, Sword Spiriter pouted and said: "Who else in the entire True Domain can give out the Sword Immortal Inheritance? Naturally, it can only be Lord Sword Immortal!"
As soon as these words came out, Peak Lord Shi Ying felt countless heavenly thunderbolts exploding in his mind.
They blasted him dizzy and disoriented, his ears buzzing with a roaring sound.
"What did you say?"
He looked at Sword Spiriter in disbelief, his face filled with shock and emotion.
Finally, he swallowed hard and said in an utterly incredulous tone: "You mean Lord Sword Immortal is your benefactor's Disciple?"
"Mm!"
Sword Spiriter simply nodded.
At this moment!
Peak Lord Shi Ying's heart trembled.
Heavens, earth, this world was too crazy.
Lord Sword Immortal, known as the number one person in the True Domain, actually had a Master.
And this Master was also his Disciple's life-saving benefactor.
Crucially, he had previously naively thought of taking such a person as his son-in-law.
He even felt somewhat indifferent, even displeased, about the Cultivation Technique the other party had given.
Thinking of all this, he truly wished he could slap himself twice right then and there.
How could such a Senior be casually discussed by him!
