Xiao Chuhan said loudly, waving his hand as he tossed a storage bag over as if he were throwing it to a beggar.
On the surface, he appeared indifferent to the ten thousand top-grade spirit stones, but in reality, his heart was aching.
That was one hundred million low-grade spirit stones! It was the spirit stones he had prepared to buy an important artifact for Feng Wanqing at the auction. This amount had almost drained a spirit vein of the Beiyuan Kingdom.
However, to ensure that Wanqing wouldn’t be saddened by Feng Youran’s situation after her seclusion, he had no choice but to painfully part with this huge sum of money.
However, the storage bag containing the huge sum fell to the ground, and no one picked it up.
“Why are you still standing there? I’ve given you the spirit stones. Hurry up and release Feng Youran!”
“Treating me like a beggar?” Feng Siyue asked lightly. She moved her finger, and the immortal binding silk tightened around Feng Youran’s neck, causing her entire face to turn a bluish-purple.
Seeing this, Xiao Chuhan, despite the humiliation, quickly had someone pick up the storage bag and hand it over, urging Feng Siyue to release Feng Youran immediately.
Feng Siyue didn’t accept it and said indifferently, “Apologize.”
Xiao Chuhan’s expression instantly turned cold. Apologize? Apologize to them? How could that be possible?
He was the Crown Prince of a nation!
Seeing that he didn’t move, Feng Siyue tightened the immortal binding silk a few more times and said coldly, “It seems you never intended for this woman to live.”
“I’m sorry!” Xiao Chuhan, realizing Feng Siyue was serious, gritted his teeth and apologized.
Feng Siyue loosened her grip slightly and nodded at Tangguo.
Little Tangguo took the storage bag and slowly released his divine sense to scan its contents. After confirming that not a single spirit stone was missing, he poured the stones into a bag at his waist with a clatter, then threw the storage bag back at Xiao Chuhan.
Yang Aotian watched Little Tangguo closely, his heart filled with shock. At first, he thought the two children had no cultivation and were just carrying some treasures.
But he hadn’t expected that the boy’s divine sense just now had the strength of a Martial King realm, higher than many of the excellent students present.
How was that possible? The boy was only four years old, how could he have such high cultivation?
And this woman and her maid, he couldn’t sense their cultivation levels at all, as if they were using some artifact to conceal it. Plus, this woman hadn’t even made a move yet.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and, seeing that Feng Youran had been rescued, said in a deep voice, “Since the personal grudge has been resolved, let’s talk about the public matter! You are the remnants of the Guidao Secret Sect. As the leading righteous sect, our academy absolutely cannot let you go and harm the world.”
“Leading righteous sect? As far as I know, the leading righteous sect is the renowned Tianmen Sword Sect. What is your academy considered as the leading sect?”
Feng Siyue chuckled mockingly, amused at how Vast Academy liked to flatter themselves.
One of the elders snorted coldly, “The Tianmen Sword Sect was indeed glorious a hundred years ago, but after its sect master fell, it has been declining day by day. Now, the Tianmen Sword Sect is just a master and a servant. It can’t even make it into the top hundred sects of the Abyss Continent, let alone be considered the leading sect. Our academy has consistently topped the sect rankings in recent years, so it’s only natural that we are called the leading sect.”
Feng Siyue frowned slightly. In the past five years, not only had the Guidao Secret Sect been destroyed, but now it seemed that her master’s Tianmen Sword Sect was also in decline.
What about the sects of her other masters?
A bad premonition rose in her heart. It was likely that the sects of her other masters had also encountered trouble.
Just five years ago, these sects were renowned on the Abyss Continent. What had happened in those five years?
Seeing Feng Siyue’s silence, Yang Aotian sneered, “You ignorant brat, are you from some remote mountain? The Vast Academy is now the leading righteous sect. The Tianmen Sword Sect has long been in decline. Do you still think it can save your life?”
Feng Siyue composed herself and said slowly, “So what if the Tianmen Sword Sect has declined? As long as people remember it was once the top sect on the Abyss Continent, leading countless disciples to defend against foreign invasions and protect the continent’s people, its sacred sword, the Heavenly Mystery Sword, is filled with righteous energy, suppressing evil. That is the style of a righteous sect. What has your Vast Academy done? Rely on fighting to rise to the top?”
Yang Aotian and the elders’ faces darkened!
Yang Aotian suppressed his anger and said solemnly, “So what do you want to say? You are remnants of the Guidao Secret Sect. Does the past glory of the Tianmen Sword Sect have anything to do with you?”
“Of course it does, because I am the new leader of the Tianmen Sword Sect!”
Feng Siyue’s words caused an uproar!
“Cough cough!”
Lu Chen, who was watching the scene from the bedside, almost choked on his tea. He widened his eyes, doubting what he had just heard!
He quickly took out a communication stone and sent a message to Di Xuan Shang, “Xuan Shang, come out quickly. The mother of the child who just called you father claims to be the new leader of the Tianmen Sword Sect. I’m shocked! I’ve never seen a woman who can brag like that!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the woman in question take out a long sword. As the sword was unsheathed, the righteous energy could be felt for miles around!
It was the Heavenly Mystery Sword!
There were many legends about the Heavenly Mystery Sword. One widely spread legend was that it was forged from a meteorite that fell from the heavens and contained unparalleled sword techniques. The Sword Saint of the Tianmen Sword Sect had learned these techniques and founded the sect!
Later, the Sword Saint fell, and the sword disappeared. No one expected it to be in the hands of this mysterious woman!
Not only others but Lu Chen was also stunned. He quickly took out the communication stone and corrected himself, “I was wrong, Xuan Shang. This woman might really be the new leader of the Tianmen Sword Sect because she has the Heavenly Mystery Sword!”
Before he could finish his words, the air around him suddenly turned cold. Di Xuan Shang had already appeared, his deep black eyes narrowed as he looked out the window.
Lu Chen patted his chest. “Hey, hey, Xuan Shang, can you make some noise? You’re going to scare me to death one of these days!”
Everyone else’s gaze was fixed on the Heavenly Mystery Sword, but Di Xuan Shang’s eyes were on the veiled woman.
Who is this woman? Why does she feel so familiar?
It’s as if he had seen her before!
Is it her?
As soon as this thought crossed his mind, Di Xuan Shang dismissed it.
That woman had been swallowed by the collapsed Soul Severing Valley and had long since turned to dust.
Moreover, this woman’s forehead and eyes were intact, without the three terrifying blood holes.
Most importantly, his gaze fell on Feng Siyue. Her curvaceous figure flashed through his eyes, causing his ears to turn slightly red as he hurriedly shifted his gaze away, feeling a bit flustered.
The difference between them was too great. That woman was just a shell, so they definitely couldn’t be the same person!
