Vol.2-Chapter 183 – Sword Embryo

Facing the sudden question, Jian Wuxian’s smiling face suddenly became stiff and he deliberately pretended to be angry. “You already learned to ask your teacher for things!”

Zhao Jiuge no longer had the fear he had before, because he had found that in private, his teacher was very kind to them.

“Hehe, Teacher, the smile on your face has betrayed your thoughts.” Zhao Jiuge was not scared because of Jian Wuxian’s serious expression. He knew that since Jian Wuxian had decided to accept a disciple, he must have prepared a gift.

“You stinking brat, it must have been Hongling who spoiled you.” Although Jian Wuxian said this, he actually enjoyed this kind of interaction with his disciples.

Although he was the Head Teacher of the sect, he was still a human and not an immortal yet. He still had his emotions. He wanted to be like a teacher, so he didn’t want everyone to be afraid of him. Thinking of this, he felt a burst of pain in his heart. If only Qingniu could be here as well.

Jian Wuxian’s words caused everyone’s gazes to lock on to him. They were curious about what he would give their little junior brother.

Jian Wuxian looked at his disciples and rolled his eyes. “Stop staring, it’s the same gift that I gave all of you: a sword embryo.

“Since your eldest senior sister has given you such a precious essence soul, you have to make good use of it and make sure not to waste her good intentions. This is a sword embryo that matches the spirit vein you entered. As for the rest of the materials, you will have to work hard to earn them. Since you have entered the inner sect, you need a decent flying sword. Once you reach the Nascent Soul Realm, nourish it well.”

After he finished speaking, a sword embryo two fingers wide and almost two meters long somehow appeared in his hand. It was completely dark, and the darkness seemed to flow through the body of the sword.

Jian Wuxian would never give one of his disciples a complete treasure. Even if his disciple didn’t have a flying sword, he would give them a good sword embryo at most. The rest of the materials had to be earned through their own efforts. This was the biggest difference between the Mysterious Heaven Sword Sect and other sects. This rule existed when Fu Hongling became his disciple, and it was still the same with Zhao Jiuge.

This time, Zhao Jiuge withdrew the smile on his face and slightly bowed while he accepted the sword embryo from his teacher. Although the sword embryo had no luster, it was bone-chillingly cold. From his teacher’s words just now, this sword embryo had the same prosperity as the spirit vein he had entered. It must have been made from cold attribute metals.

Although Zhao Jiuge had a serious expression, his heart was bursting with excitement. His hands were trembling while holding the sword embryo—he could not suppress the excitement in his heart.

He was now one step closer to the simplest dream he had. Looking at the ordinary yet precious sword embryo, Zhao Jiuge became excited. He was finally going to have a decent flying sword, and it should at least be a spirit treasure-grade one. Thinking about how powerful the spirit treasures everyone had were, his heart burned with passion.

Soon, he would make another trip to the Sword Casting Hall. With the spirit beast soul from Fu Hongling, he looked forward to what his flying sword would be like. He wondered if there would be any more surprises this time.

“Thank you, Teacher, senior sisters, Senior Brother.” Zhao Jiuge bowed to them to show respect. Even though Sha Sha had only given him a precious treasure-grade flying sword, Zhao Jiuge was equally grateful.

With the dragon sword Sha Sha had given him, he now had three precious treasure-grade flying swords. Zhao Jiuge suddenly thought of something. Once he reached the Nascent Soul Realm, he was going to the Qing province to find the Eight Desolate Sword Formation. According to the incomplete part he had, he determined that eight flying swords were required to display its full power. Soon, he was going to create his fourth flying sword, and it would be one that would accompany him for a long time.

Jian Wuxian slowly nodded, but a hint of worry arose in his eyes. “For now, follow your eldest senior sister to get familiar with the environment and cultivation knowledge. Next month, you will cultivate with me, and that's when I’ll personally impart the Mysterious Heaven Sword Art to you. I have everything arranged for you, but you don’t have much time left. In two years, the competition between the seven holy lands will start, and after that will be the Battle Competition between all the sects. Only you and Sha Sha meet the requirements to participate. Although Sha Sha’s talent is demonic, she is still a little girl, so the burden of the sect falls to you.”

Jian Wuxian’s expression suddenly became strange. “If you want that girl named Bo Re to look at you, then you need to cultivate well. I believe you two will meet in due time.”

After he finished speaking, he turned and walked into the temple. After turning around, he couldn’t endure it any longer and broke out into a smile. He was not afraid of putting too much pressure on Zhao Jiuge. Pressure was good for motivation, and Bo Re would stimulate him more, so it wasn’t a bad thing.?“I hope you won’t disappoint me.”

“That’s right, all direct disciples have their own peaks, and you are no different. Later on, ask your senior sister to take you there.”

Jian Wuxian’s voice echoed in the air, but he had already disappeared.

Compared to the news of having his own peak, Zhao Jiuge was more shocked by his teacher’s previous words.

He would soon have a chance to see that cold and noble woman? He still remembered that gaze she had when she looked at him like he was an ant.

Zhao Jiuge instantly felt his blood boil! It was fortunate that he still had two years! Otherwise, it would be too fast. Three years ago, Bo Re was already at the Spirit Core Realm, and she must have progressed further now.

Seeing that there was nothing left, Wu Tianshan gently pulled Sha Sha and smiled. “Sha Sha, we should go cultivate. It's been one month since we returned; it's time to check your progress.”

Sha Sha felt like she hadn’t had enough and hadn’t come back from the joy of becoming a senior sister. She sullenly agreed and constantly looked back at Zhao Jiuge. “Little Junior Brother, when there is time, I’ll come look for you to play.”

“Okay.” Facing the lovely little girl, Zhao Jiuge couldn’t help but agree.

Seeing that the temple was empty beside himself and his senior sister, Zhao Jiuge pulled Fu Hongling’s sleeve and asked, “Senior Sister, can I choose the peak myself?” Today, Fu Hongling was officially Zhao Jiuge’s senior sister.

“You can, you can pick any of the empty peaks.” Fu Hongling nodded. After knowing each other for a while, she talked more as well.

“Then I’m going to pick a peak next to Senior Sister’s. Are there any empty ones?” Zhao Jiuge seems to have endless things to talk about when he is with Fu Hongling.

“There is one. I’ll take you there. It’s right next to Lotus Peak.” Fu Hongling was going to take Zhao Jiuge there.

A fire-red flying sword suddenly appeared, and she took Zhao Jiuge toward Lotus Peak.

Fu Hongling softly said, “Pick the name of the peak yourself. Pick one of the peaks next to mine, then I’ll go register it at the Duty Hall.”

Zhao Jiuge pondered a bit and then said without any hesitation, “Let’s call it Hong Ling Peak.”

Fu Hongling gently smacked Zhao Jiuge’s forehead.

“I think you’re looking for a beating, be more serious.” Fu Hongling gave Zhao Jiuge a meaningful gaze. Zhao Jiuge suddenly felt nervous. His mind had wandered and he had no idea why he had blurted it out.

However, looking at his senior sister Fu Hongling, he noticed something.
