Chapter 656 - Sword Cultivators Are The Strongest

Shu Yi turned even paler, but deep down she was madly calling out to the system.
“001! What exactly is going on? Why did a Soul Formation cultivator suddenly appear out of nowhere? He never existed in the memory you gave me! Why is Zuo Shuming suddenly acquainted with such a person? Do you know that I almost died earlier? Make it clear ahhh!”
[001 isn’t sure too. It might be because the appearance of host upset the original series of events so it resulted in another effect.]
“You’re saying that my appearance resulted in a butterfly effect?”
[You can say that, previously host stopped him from joining Dan Xia Mountain but he ended up in the outer sect, didn’t this accidentally allow him to be acquainted with Lonemoon. Isn’t this person also non-existent in the original owner’s memories?]
“How is that the same!” Shu Yi cried out, increasingly agitated. “This is a Soul Formation sword cultivator, Soul Formation! That Lonemoon is merely a blockhead in the Foundation Establishment phase, they cannot be compared at all.”
Yi Qing: “…”
Shen Ying: “…”
Blockhead Lonemoon: “…”
Both master and disciple took a step back and looked up at the sky.
“We didn’t hear anything!”
“The signal was bad just now, we didn’t hear the broadcast.”
The corner of Lonemoon’s mouth twitched, he turned to glare at the two. “Do your work quickly! One more word and you can bid goodbye to your meals for the next month!”
Alright, Father Niu! No problem, Father Niu!
“Can I stay now?” Yu Luan quickly looked towards Yu Luan who was shocked silly.
Yu Luan shivered, after looking from Yi Qing to Supremacy Tian Ji who was set in the wall several times, he then responded. He knew sword cultivators were strong, but didn’t expect one to be this powerful. Both were Soul Formation but against each other, one instantly dominated!
“S… sure! Of… of course you can!” He nodded multiple times, then immediately shot a look to the peak masters and Nascent Soul elders behind him who were still dumbfounded, stop staring, hurry and keep him!
Everyone faltered and snapped to their senses, understanding him instantly! Then hurriedly bowed in Chef’s directly.
“Greetings Uncle-Master!” No matter what, the priority was to keep him. Though this person seemed like he had some misunderstandings with Uncle-Master Tian Ji, they did not have a differing opinion of him just because of that. That he was too strong was the main reason, secondly, it was also because Tian Ji’s relations with people was only so-so and those words he said in the hall earlier had made everyone comfortable. Besides, it was indeed because Supremacy Tian Ji shot off his mouth and insulted sword cultivators first, and he just happened to be caught! And for that “battle” earlier, Tian Ji had obviously acted first.
Especially Yu Luan, he felt more satisfied the more he looked at his Supremacy who sent himself to their door. To be honest, he initially had some worries about keeping, also thinking that he probably had some other motives, so he had the intention of taking a gamble in doing so. Now… the other party was so terrifyingly strong, if he really had any motives, he could have just wiped out the whole Gui Yi Sect, why the need to go a long way, motives my ass!
Yi Qing nodded and said, “Then we shall stay in Gui Yi Sect from now on!”
“Welcome Uncle-Master to our sect!”
Wait a moment!
We?
Yu Luan caught the meaning in his words and faltered, only realizing that there was a little lady behind him after looking everywhere. She looked young, compared to Yi Qing who was evidently strong, there wasn’t even a hint of Spirit Qi on her, seeming like she hadn’t started cultivating. He subconsciously thought that she might be his friend or a disciple he had just taken in, hence he asked politely, “This fellow Daoist is?”
Yi Qing stepped aside and answered in all seriousness, “This is my master!” Then added again after some thought. “Your Great Uncle-Master!”
Yu Luan: “…”
Everyone: “…”
(⊙_⊙)
Why did they suddenly feel like they’d been taken advantage of?
Yet they were the ones who suggested calling him Uncle-Master. Yu Luan stared at the lady for a while, he worked hard for a long time but the three words “Great Uncle-Master” just wouldn’t leave his mouth.
At last, he could only change the topic, looking towards Tian Ji who was still in the wall. “Uncle-Master Yi Qing, about that…”
“Mm.” Yi Qing nodded, he was about to let it go but upon hearing a certain person’s voice transmission, he could only reply with, “Core cultivators are nothing more than this!”
Core cultivator Yu Luan: “…”
The crowd of core cultivators: “…”
It felt they were shot in the knee with an arrow that came out of nowhere. Yu Luan directed the Elders to get the person in the wall out, while he cleaned his hands and looked towards Yi Qing. “Uncle-Master, my sect has a total of six mountains, which one would you like to stay on? So that I can send some disciples to prep the place?”
In theory, the two Soul Formation Supremacies of their sect stayed on Dan Xian Peak, but it was evident that this new Uncle-Master was at loggerheads with Tian Ji, he must be unwilling to be in the same place so he was giving him the choice.
“No need!” Yi Qing rejected his kind intentions.
“Huh?” Yu Luan was confused.
However he saw him suddenly turn and walked to the left, stopping by the edge of the floating peak, with a wave of his hand, a white light instantly descended down. In a short while, he heard a loud rumble, like the earth was splitting, even the ground he stood on shook.
A huge peak suddenly rose gradually from below and went higher and higher, even past the main peak. At last it stopped above the tallest Dan Xia Mountain.
Yu Luan: “…”
He’d actually shifted another mountain over!
(๑ŐдŐ)b
The core cultivators leaders of Gui Yi Sect suddenly felt that they had a great misunderstanding about sword cultivators in the past!
“I will stay here from now on!” Yi Qing glanced at the freshly formed floating peak. “As for disciples… just them two!” He pointed at Lonemoon and Zuo Shuming.
Then he left with his master on a sword, flying towards his peak.
Finally an end, showing off and what not was much more tiring than cooking, they’d even almost delayed Master’s mealtime!
——————
The news that Gui Yi Sect had gained another Soul Formation sword cultivator spread through the entire sect. Though very few had seen him, but the fact that the great hall on the main peak collapsed and a new floating peak grew still shocked many disciples.
Although the threshold for sword cultivators were low, unlike other specializations, with almost no restrictions to spirit roots, its combat capabilities was the strongest amongst cultivators. Yet it was also the most difficult and bitter forms of cultivation. Completely dependent on one’s own understanding of the sword dao and a great part of such understanding came from actual combat. In other words, sword cultivators were beaten throughout their growth. That is why people rarely choose sword cultivation, even if they do, only a handful persevere till Core Formation and above. This was the reason why sword cultivators were scarce, especially in such a sect of core cultivators, it was almost impossible for sword cultivators to make a mark.
However, a Soul Formation sword cultivator came to their sect, a living one! Those that could breathe.
All the disciples were excited, especially the outer sect disciples and other disciples who weren’t core cultivators.
