Blade Peak at the summit of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
The vast Great Dao pressure emanated from the summit, enveloping the entire Blade Peak. Although its force was strong, it did not impose an oppressive feeling, allowing one to sense the boundless Great Dao within without any sense of arrogance.
The sky above the peak was now covered by a black and white Yin Yang Fish. In the eyes of the Yin Yang Fish, there was an illusory black-and-white crystal.
Beneath the Yin Yang Fish, a Daoist-immortal-like elder wearing a dark blue long robe sat cross-legged facing the mountain, eyes slightly closed, appearing calm and composed.
Whoosh!
Chen Jingxuan swiftly leaped from the main hall halfway up the mountain, standing behind the elder, watching the figure with an excited expression.
Gradually, the pressure of the Great Dao slowly dissipated, and the Yin Yang Fish in the sky transformed into a stream of black and white light, merging into the elder's body. The elder slowly opened his eyes, with beams of black and white light shooting out from them.
"Congratulations, Master!"
Chen Jingxuan bowed excitedly to the elder, speaking with joy.
The elder got up, turning slowly to face Chen Jingxuan, his movements seemingly slow but actually swift, each action embodying the rhythm of the Great Dao.
"Xuan'er, did you gain anything from this descent?"
The elder spoke with a gentle smile.
Chen Jingxuan became solemn: "On this descent, I encountered a person of extraordinary talent, but unfortunately..."
After narrating the events concerning Jiang Chen, Chen Jingxuan sighed lightly: "I do not know if I can find Young Master Jiang again."
"From what you said, I fear that even if found, he would not return to the Heavenly Sword Sect!"
A complex expression flashed in the elder's eyes as he glanced down the mountain, showing a trace of sighing.
"Why? The misunderstanding has been resolved, his foster father won't pursue it anymore, and his friends are here. Why wouldn't he come?"
Chen Jingxuan looked at the elder in confusion.
The elder shook his head lightly: "Foolish child, your mind is pure, how can you know the filth of this world?"
"Filth?"
Chen Jingxuan's puzzled expression deepened, but then he remembered something and said softly: "By the way, Master, before Young Master Jiang left, he left a message for you."
"Oh? A message for me?" The elder was slightly stunned upon hearing this, looking at Chen Jingxuan in slight surprise.
Chen Jingxuan nodded lightly, speaking confusedly: "He had me relay a rather strange message, only six words, 'Wu Dan Taiji Grandmaster,' saying you would understand..."
Swish!
The moment he heard the words 'Wu Dan Taiji Grandmaster,' the elder's expression changed abruptly, instantly appearing before Chen Jingxuan.
He raised his hands and gripped Chen Jingxuan's shoulders, speaking excitedly: "What did you say? Did he, did he have you relay the message 'Wu Dan Taiji Grandmaster'?! Is that it?"
Chen Jingxuan was dumbfounded for a moment. Having grown up in the Heavenly Sword Sect from a young age, always by the elder's side, for over twenty years, the elder had always been calm and unperturbed. He had never been so excited.
"Hurry up, is that it?" The elder asked excitedly once more.
This elder is none other than the Yin Yang Sword Zhang Sanfeng!
"Yes! He said you would understand if you understood, and if not, then forget it!"
Chen Jingxuan nodded.
"Did he say anything else?"
Zhang Sanfeng asked excitedly, with thick anticipation in his eyes.
Having been here for hundreds of years, Zhang Sanfeng never expected to hear the title from Yuan Star again, his heart surging with excitement, cursing internally why he had to break through at this moment, why he didn't go to Fenglin City to oversee this entry assessment!
"He said, if you understand the meaning of this message, please look after Lin Yuyan for the sake of a fellow townsman. She is his life-saving benefactor!"
Chen Jingxuan, not daring to neglect, urgently conveyed Jiang Chen's instruction, seeing Zhang Sanfeng so agitated that his entire spiritual power was running wild.
Hoo!
Zhang Sanfeng took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, calming the turbulent spiritual power within him, thoughts whirling in his eyes.
"Alas! He doesn't want to implicate me!"
After a while, Zhang Sanfeng sighed lightly, asked firmly: "So Lin Yuyan was accepted as a disciple by Elder Qin, correct?"
"Yes."
Chen Jingxuan nodded.
"Come with me to Elder Qin's, afterward, we'll search for Mr. Jiang together."
Zhang Sanfeng spoke softly.
"This... Master, shouldn't you stabilize your cultivation first? We don't know where Young Master Jiang might go, it might be difficult..."
Chen Jingxuan hesitated for a moment; stabilizing one's cultivation after a breakthrough is very important, which is also why Qin Chaolan didn't disturb him immediately.
"No matter."
Zhang Sanfeng waved it off: "That Mr. Jiang... is likely to return to Molten Fire Town once more. Those from there tend to be nostalgic, and if he intends to flee, once he escapes, he certainly won't return to Fenglin City quickly. Molten Fire Town is where he first appeared, likely his first stop after arriving, he will surely return for a look."
"Arriving?"
Chen Jingxuan raised an eyebrow, somewhat puzzled.
"Let's go, to Elder Qin's first."
Zhang Sanfeng gestured, flashing towards the back mountain.
Chen Jingxuan hurriedly followed.
Inside a cavern mansion in the back mountain.
The back mountain is the dwelling of the various elders of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Several dozen cavern mansions have been carved out of the mountainside, housing all the elders from the Void Refinement Realm to the Unity Realm Stage.
The three highest cavern mansions belong to the three Unity Realm powerhouses of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Blade Peak towers skyward, spanning about ten miles across. Several dozen cavern mansions dot the rear mountain; although not far apart, they aren't exactly close, ensuring the elders won't disturb each other during cultivation.
Zhang Sanfeng brought Chen Jingxuan to the topmost left cavern entrance.
"Elder Qin, Sanfeng is here to visit."
Zhang Sanfeng stood at the entrance, bowing with cupped fists.
"Elder Zhang, please come in."
A slightly surprised voice called out.
Zhang Sanfeng led Chen Jingxuan inside the cavern mansion.
Inside the cavern mansion.
The interior was rather simply furnished, with two stone beds, a stone table, and four stone stools, devoid of anything else.
At this time, Qin Chaolan and Lin Yuyan stood watching at the entrance.
"Congratulations on your breakthrough, Elder Zhang."
As Zhang Sanfeng and Chen Jingxuan entered, Qin Chaolan spoke with a gentle smile.
"Elder Qin, time is of the essence, so I won't be courteous with you."
Zhang Sanfeng spoke solemnly.
Qin Chaolan was slightly startled, and with a slightly serious expression, said: "Please speak, Elder Zhang."
"That Mr. Jiang mentioned by Jingxuan is extremely important to me; I need to search for him personally. During my absence from the sect, I must ask Elder Qin to look after Lin Yuyan carefully."
Zhang Sanfeng glanced at Lin Yuyan on the side, solemnly instructing.
"Yuyan is my disciple; of course, I will take good care of her."
Qin Chaolan frowned slightly, looking at Zhang Sanfeng in confusion.
"Elder Qin, when I say take care, I mean you really must take care of her."
Zhang Sanfeng reiterated, a hint of profound meaning in his eyes.
