Chapter 55 Fight for It with Our Lives!

“You are here?”

Everyone was stunned and full of puzzles.

“Come in!”

At this time, the voice in the palace sounded again.

Everyone looked at each other in utter amazement, but no one dared to move.

Because they had never thought that someone else was in the palace!

It was then that Ye Xuan suddenly walked toward the palace. One after another, everyone’s eyes fell on Ye Xuan. The Ninth Princess beside him quickly grabbed him. “What are you going to do?”

Ye Xuan went blank. “What am I going to do?”

“Something is wrong!”

“It is because of the Ling Xiao Sword!”

Ye Xuan’s face fell. A little while ago, a mysterious force drove him to walk into the palace. This force definitely came from the Ling Xiao Sword!

“Is the Ling Xiao Sword related to the Sword Lord?”

“The Sword Lord?”

Thinking of this, Ye Xuan was jolted into clarity. “Isn’t there a dead Sword Lord in the Prison World Tower? Does this have something to do with the Sword Lord?”

At this time, the man in the black robe not far away abruptly said, “The braves get much more than the cowards. I will go in first!”

After he said this, his whole person turned into a wisp of black smoke and floated straight in.

Upon seeing the man in the black robe go in first, those gathered around rushed in right after him.

Ye Xuan and the Ninth Princess also hurried in. When all the people came into the palace, they were all paralyzed.

Inside the palace were sculptures of a man piled high. At first glance, there were nearly a thousand sculptures with the same appearance. Judging from the appearance, it should be a teenager. A wooden sword hung on the waist of all these sculptures. Ye Xuan was shocked there at the first sight of these wooden swords.

“The Ling Xiao Sword!”

These wooden swords were exactly the same as the Ling Xiao Sword. And above all, the bodies of these wooden swords were all engraved with two characters ‘Ling Xiao’.

“What the hell?”

Ye Xuan’s face was full of perplexity!

At this moment, all of them suddenly turned around to looked toward the distance in unison. In the corner of the main hall squatted a woman with long hair who focused only on carving a piece of wood. The woman half-squatted on the floor, and the long dress she wore had already lost its original appearance. Her extremely long hair spread out on the ground, but all her hair was snow-white. She just kept carving the wood in front of her a little at a time, very carefully and seriously.

When they saw this woman, everyone in the field suddenly looked alert!

At this point, the long-haired woman suddenly said, “If you are here hunting for treasure, you can go to the little bamboo house behind this hall where there are some things he left behind.”

When everyone in the field heard her words, they looked at each other. The next moment, the man in the black robe and some other people instantly flashed out of the hall. The Ninth Princess was also ready to leave, but she stopped when she saw Ye Xuan have no intention of leaving. “You’re not leaving?”

Ye Xuan glanced at the long-haired woman and said, “You go first. I have something to ask her!”

The Ninth Princess looked at Ye Xuan. “Be careful.”

After that, she turned around and left the hall.

“The Martial Art Skill at the Earth Stage!”

The moment when the Ninth Princess went out, a sound of amazement came from the back of the palace. In a flash, countless sounds of struggle were heard.

Ye Xuan ignored the situation outside. He walked up to the long-haired woman. She stopped and turned to look at Ye Xuan. Shaking her head slightly, she said, “You are not him.”

After that, she continued to carve the wood before her.

Ye Xuan spread his right hand and the Ling Xiao Sword appeared in his palm.

The long-haired woman stopped.

After a while, she continued to crave the wood before her. “The truth in this sword has already dissipated, only a trace of spirit left... Is he dead?”

Ye Xuan was silent. Now he could be sure that the Sword Lord in the first layer of the Prison World Tower was exactly the man carved by the long-haired woman.

At this time, the Ling Xiao Sword suddenly trembled a little, and then it landed itself in front of the long-haired woman.

The hand of the long-haired woman froze in the air. After a long long time, she put down the carving tool in her hand. Then she held the Ling Xiao Sword gently. Looking at it, suddenly she smiled. But while she was smiling, two lines of limpid tears fell down on the Ling Xiao Sword.

Ye Xuan remained silent because he really didn’t know what to say.

After a while, the long-haired woman whispered, “I made this sword for him.”

Ye Xuan cast his eyes at the long-haired woman who was gently stroking the Ling Xiao Sword. She said, “In that year, he let me wait for him here. He told me that he would definitely be back. So I waited and waited. I waited until all my black hair turned white. But he still didn’t come back... It’s not bad if he would never come back. After all, I can still have one last hope to cling on. But now, my last hope is gone...”

With this, she turned to look at Ye Xuan. “Are you his disciple?”

Ye Xuan thought for a moment and replied, “Sort of!”

The long-haired woman slowly stood up. She straightened her clothes and hair, and then looked toward Ye Xuan. “He didn’t give a name of wife to me... So strictly speaking, I am actually not his wife. But, but can you call me Mrs. Master?”

Ye Xuan stayed silent for a moment. Then he saluted deeply at the woman. “Mrs. Master!”

The long-haired woman smiled, but her eyes were full of tears! She gently touched Ye Xuan’s cheeks. “In those years, he was the same fine young man like you. He was also a Sword Cultivator at that time... If you have someone you love in the future, don’t fail her.”

Ye Xuan thought for a little while and then asked, “You have been waiting for so many years. Have you ever regretted it?”

The long-haired woman shook her head and chuckled. “If you really like someone, you will not regret it even if you may gain nothing after giving everything to him.”

Ye Xuan was silent.

The long-haired woman turned around—her eyes sweeping through those wooden people. There were waves of emotions in her eyes. It seemed that she was recalling the past. A while later, she gently stroked the wooden sculpture in front of her. “In fact, I knew that he should have forgotten me already. Otherwise, with his strength, it would take him no more than four hours to come here from any place in Qing Cang World... But it doesn’t matter. I remember him...”

Finished speaking, she suddenly extended her right palm. The next moment, the black sword suspended above the palace turned into a black sword light. It came into the hall and fell steadily on the palm of the long-haired woman.

The long-haired woman turned to look at Ye Xuan. “This sword named Ling You. Because I haven’t nourished it, it degraded from the Genuine Sword to the Spiritual Sword. This Ling You Sword and the Ling Xiao Sword are a pair. These two swords can be merged into a whole or be used separately. If they are merged into one sword, the grade of the sword can be promoted a level by force. The limit level of the merged sword is the Heavenly Sword, which is a level higher than the Genuine Sword. Swords need to be nourished and the fit between you and the swords should be constantly enhanced. It totally depends on you which level of sword they can grow into.”

After that, she handed the Ling You Sword and the Ling Xiao Sword to Ye Xuan.

Ye Xuan hesitated a little, then took the two swords. Holding them, he immediately felt a certain connection between the two swords.

The long-haired woman smiled softly. “You can go.”

Ye Xuan looked at the long-haired woman. “Won’t you go with me?”

The long-haired woman shook her head. “This is where I met him, so it will be the place where everything ends.”

With this, she gently touched the head of Ye Xuan. “If you have someone you love in the future, you must remember the thing you have promised to her. Never break your promise...”

Ye Xuan didn’t try to persuade her. He saluted deeply at her and turned around to leave the hall.

In the hall, the long-haired woman turned to look at the sculpture in front of her. She gently hugged the wooden sculpture and then leaned her head on the shoulder of it. Her eyes slowly closed and they never opened again.

Outside the hall, Ye Xuan turned to salute at the hall once again, and his heart was quite complicated.

Wait!

He didn’t know how long the woman in the hall had waited for the Sword Lord. But it could be sure that she must have waited for a long long time... Was it because of the Sword Lord got delayed by some other things, or he really forgot the woman in the hall?

He didn’t want to think more!

It was then that a few fighting sounds came from behind the hall. Ye Xuan was shocked. He quickly put away the two swords and ran to the back of the hall. At this moment, many people had gathered there already. Obviously, it must be the fighting sounds here that attracted people from other places!

Ye Xuan glanced around. All of a sudden, a figure fell in front of him, it was the Ninth Princess!

Ye Xuan was going to talk, but the Ninth Princess took hold of his arm and ran out with him.

“Don’t let them go. She took the scroll of the Top-grade Martial Art Skill at the Earth Stage!”

Someone shouted behind them. Right after that, Ye Xuan felt several people behind were coming at them. Meanwhile, a man and a woman appeared before them without warning!

The two people were the ones who appeared first in previous.

The man looked ruthlessly at the Ninth Princess. “Drop the scroll!”

The Ninth Princess grinned and said, “Come to take it!”

The man’s right foot tiptoed lightly on the ground.

“Click!”

The ground cracked. In the meantime, his whole person turned right into a residual image and rushed toward the Ninth Princess.

The mouth corners of the Ninth Princess slightly lifted up and curved into a ferocious expression. She held her golden saber in her right hand and cut straight forward.

“Sizzle!”

The golden light of the saber flashed across the field.

“Pow!”

As an explosion sounded, both the Ninth Princess and the man backed continuously.

But at this point, some people around ran here and they surrounded Ye Xuan and the Ninth Princess.

Seeing this scene, the Ninth Princess’ face fell.

The Top-grade Martial Art Skill at the Earth Stage!

Its value was beyond imagination. One must know that in the whole Jiang Country, there were no more than ten scrolls of the Martial Art Skill at the Earth Stage. As to the scroll of the Top-grade Martial Art Skill at the Earth Stage, even the entire Royal House of the Jiang Country didn’t have one. Only the thousand years old forces like Drunken Fairy Building and Cangmu College might have one!

Such a precious scroll of the Martial Art Skill, the Ninth Princess would certainly not give it up easily!

Opposite Ye Xuan and the Ninth Princess, the man stared steadily at the Ninth Princess. “Leave the Martial Art Skill and then you can go!”

Around them, those people fixed their eyes at the Ninth Princess. It was evident that they dared not to make their moves because they were afraid of the strength of the Ninth Princess.

Next to Ye Xuan, the Ninth Princess turned to glance at him. “What do you think?”

“What do I think?”

Ye Xuan asked lightly, “How much can you sell that scroll of Martial Art Skill at Earth Stage?”

The Ninth Princess thought about it and said, “At least fifty million gold coins, and there is no seller!”

“Fifty million gold coins!”

Ye Xuan’s eyelids jumped. He turned to look at the Ninth Princess. “What else will I think? We should of course fight for it. Fight for it with our lives!”

Just when the sound fell, he clenched his fists firmly, and a horrible Conceptual Battle Skill swept out of his body. Then, he dashed straight toward the man nearby, as if he had been injected with stimulants.

The Ninth Princess, “...”
