Time slowly passed, and night fell upon the vast land of the Nameless Sword Manor.
‘The sword will appear, a celestial palace artifact, and the city of Wushuang City will return empty-handed!’
‘The Nameless Sword Manor’s sword testing competition will revive the legendary “Western Chu Sword Song!”, its wielder is the young lord of the Marquis of the West Mansion!’
‘The Nameless Sword Manor’s legacy of a hundred years will be destroyed, it is likely to fall from the ranks of top-tier forces!’
‘The sword testing competition is filled with eerie happenings, 80,000 swords vanished into thin air!’
.....
One by one, these pieces of news spread across the North Li Realm through carrier pigeons, scouts rushing at full speed, and word-of-mouth among the Jianghu people!
And the most shocking news of all.
The youngest prince of the Tianqi Xiao royal family, Prince Wu, attained the Dao of both sword and blade at the peak of Sword Mountain, using a single sword strike to cleave apart Sword Mountain, and obtaining a sacred sword that surpasses the level of celestial palace artifacts!
For a time, the Jianghu and the court were both.
In turmoil.
...........
“Father, why does our Nameless Sword Manor have to submit to others?”
By the edge of a deep chasm filled with the destructive sword intent of thunder!
The young master of the Nameless Sword Manor, Wei Changfeng, asked his father, puzzled.
“Child, do you know what a twelve-year-old master of both sword and blade represents?”
Faced with Wei Tinglu’s question, Wei Changfeng fell silent.
He naturally knew that this meant a peerless prodigy, destined to reach the peak of martial arts, invincible under heaven!
But Wei Tinglu’s eyes glinted with memories:
“I once had the honor of witnessing a sword strike that resembled a celestial being descending from the heavens in Tianqi City!”
“That year, the five great sword masters of Nan Jue challenged Li Changsheng of the Academy of Swords, intending to win through a rotating battle. However, Li Changsheng used only one sword strike, dissolving countless ice shards, severing the swords of all five masters. After that day, no one in Nan Jue dared to speak of swords in front of people from North Li!”
Upon hearing this, Wei Changfeng was startled: “That strong? No wonder everyone says Nan Jue cultivates blades, and North Li practices swords!”
“Yes, but Feng’er, I think the day when even blades are not spoken of in front of people from Nan Jue is not far off!”
Upon hearing this, Wei Changfeng felt a jolt in his heart. He hadn’t expected his father to hold such a high opinion of this Prince Wu.
As if seeing his son’s confusion, Wei Tinglu continued, “As the two great sword-making holy lands of the world, Jian Xin Tomb produced a Li Su Wang in the art of sword-making, and a Li Xin Yue in the art of swordsmanship. Our Nameless Sword Manor has been suppressed for far too long.”
“And this Prince Wu is the key for the Nameless Sword Manor to rise from the ashes. This sword intent chasm and the mine within it can truly become a chance for the Nameless Sword Manor to rise!”
“The prince’s words were not wrong, within five years, the Nameless Sword Manor will have a chance to surpass Jian Xin Tomb and claim the title of the number one sword-making holy land!”
Hearing this, Wei Changfeng seemed to understand his father’s intentions.
“Father, so this is our investment, is it?”
“Yes, and also no. The rise and fall of the royal family are unpredictable, however, this Prince Wu is the most likely candidate to ascend to that supreme throne!”
“If the Nameless Sword Manor aligns itself correctly, it will have the merit of assisting the ascending emperor!”
“Remember, those who submit must have the attitude of those who submit. From now on, the Nameless Sword Manor will be the ‘sword-maker’ behind the prince, obediently!”

Meanwhile, within the Nameless Sword Manor.
Ye Dingzhi sat cross-legged in a private room, in the middle of cultivation.
“Creak.....”
The door opened, and Xiao Chengxuan’s figure appeared within Ye Dingzhi’s vision.
“Your Highness!”
Ye Dingzhi bowed in respect.
Xiao Chengxuan waved his hand slightly:
“Ye Dingzhi, or should this king call you Ye Yun?”
Upon hearing this, Ye Dingzhi’s face changed drastically, his pupils contracted violently. Without any hesitation, Ye Dingzhi instantly activated his most powerful technique.
A boundless power surged out from his body, and brilliant golden light shone like a newborn sun.
As it burst forth, a majestic Dharma Form appeared behind Ye Dingzhi.
Ye Dingzhi activated his most powerful technique, not for battle, but for escape.
However, he was horrified to find that he couldn’t move at all.
The area around him, even the entire private room, became a world of nothingness.
And the ruler of this world was Xiao Chengxuan.
“Even ghosts and gods fear it, this is the Immovable King Bodhisattva, haha, the Immovable King Bodhisattva technique, the first expert of Nan Jue, Raining Life Demon, interesting!”
As Xiao Chengxuan spoke, a figure in a black robe stepped out behind him.
The black robe seemed calm, but his body trembled slightly.
He lifted his hood, revealing a face that Ye Dingzhi didn’t recognize.
Ye Dingzhi was puzzled, but the figure in black robe ripped off his disguise mask!
“Yun’er!”, at this moment, Cang Yi’s face contorted, his facial muscles twitched, and his eyes trembled as tears streamed down his face.
At this moment, the expression on Ye Dingzhi’s face instantly froze, the previously puzzled look in his eyes was replaced by raging waves.
The incredulous expression washed over his mind like a tide, his pupils contracted sharply, as if trying to imprison all the shock within those small eyes.
“Fa.....father?”
Then, Xiao Chengxuan moved his spiritual power slightly, isolating the surrounding world.
And Ye Yu and Ye Yun, father and son, finally recognized each other!
Ye Yun also learned of everything that had happened that year!
Father and son embraced and wept, eventually, Ye Dingzhi stood up and knelt before Xiao Chengxuan:
“Prince Wu, for your great kindness in saving my father and mother, Ye Yun will never forget. From this day forward, I, Ye Yun, will use loyalty as my blade, and charge forward for you, fighting to the death!”
Hearing this, Xiao Chengxuan nodded, and his figure vanished from the room.
A father and son reunited, it was best to give them some time and space!
As for Xiao Chengxuan, he returned to his bedroom.
Today.
He had received quite a few good things from the explosion counterattack.
It was time to study them!
