Jackson nodded and said, “If our Grand Sect Leader was right, the Celestial Sect’s leader that challenged us that day was your grandfather, Thomas. Your grandfather is probably the only person in the entire world who has the strength to defeat our Grand Sect Leader.”James tried to organize his thoughts.‘Grandpa?’ thought James.James found that idea highly improbable.He had come in contact with Celestial Sect’s leader several times.Although the sect leader wore a mask, he could smell perfume on them, and their arms were also not as toned as a male would be.Despite their efforts to disguise their voice by making it sound deep and raspy, it was still distinguishable as that of an actual man.“I highly doubt it.”James said skeptically, “While I was in Mount Olympus, the leader of the Celestial Sect and my grandfather appeared almost around the same time. My grandfather appeared right as Celestial Sect’s leader left. That doesn’t make sense unless my grandfather resorts to cl
Meanwhile, Delainey was still awake in the library located in Mount Thunder Sect’s wing building.For some reason, she had been restless recently. She tossed and turned in bed but could not fall asleep, so she headed to the library to read for a bit.She stared absent-mindedly at the open page of a book she had taken for a long time.Click-clack!She suddenly heard the sound of footsteps approaching her.Delainey was sitting on a chair on the library’s third floor. Upon hearing the footsteps, she raised her head and turned to the source of the sound.She immediately put down the book she was holding, stood up, and gave a respectful greeting, “Dad.”“Mhm.”Jackson nodded in acknowledgment as he walked over. He sat down beside her and looked at the book on the table.“Are you still reading this book?”“Mhm.”Delainey picked up the book she had set on the table.The thick book’s cover was slightly worn. A few ancient words were written on the cover—Legends of the Millenia.Th
“I understand.”Delainey nodded lightly, stood up, and said, “I’ll return to my room to get ready. Then, I’ll go with James to the Southern Plains.”“It’s good that you’re such an astute child.”There were no other words that needed to be exchanged between the two.Delainey picked up the book on the table, turned around, and left the library.…James had been waiting for about 20 minutes in Mount Thunder Sect’s reception hall.20 minutes later, Jackson walked back into the hall with a woman.The woman was relatively young and looked like she was in her early twenties.Mount Thunder Sect was covered with snow all year round, and the temperature was relatively low. Despite the cold, the woman only wore a white dress, and her long black hair danced in the breeze.Her face was fair and her cheeks were rosy.She followed behind Jackson as they entered the reception hall. They stopped in front of James. The woman crossed her hands to the right side of her lower abdomen and elegant
James’ private plane did not leave and had been waiting for him the entire time.After leaving Mount Thunder Sect, James boarded the plane once more and headed to the Southern Plains.On the plane, Delainey sat beside him in a ladylike manner and was focused on reading the thick historical book in her hands.James and Delainey were sitting less than a meter apart.James threw a casual glance at the woman next to him and found himself interested in this so-called living encyclopedia of the ancient martial world. He had met Delainey a few times but had hardly spoken to her.“Whar are you reading?”James observed her for a while and could not help asking out of curiosity.Hearing his question, Delainey put down the book and gave James a smile.Her brilliant white teeth shone through her lips, and her two shallow dimples were visible. Her lovely smile was enough to melt anyone’s heart.“It’s a book written by Mount Thunder Sect.”Delainey explained, “Since the history of our se
The region outside the Martial Heaven Continent was called the Wilderness.“Do you know a man that goes by Polaris?”Delainey nodded. “Yes, I do. There are records of him in Mount Thunder Sect’s ancient book, but this person existed more than a thousand years ago. Our sect only records things from this millennia, so there isn’t any detailed information about him. The only thing I know is that this person constantly challenged powerful subordinates of the Prince of Orchid Mountain. Ultimately, he was bested by the Prince of Orchid Mountain, and his cultivation base was dissipated. His whereabouts have been unknown ever since, and he completely disappeared from the martial world.”After hearing Delainey talk about historic events, James was convinced that Jackson was right about her encyclopedic knowledge.She had extensive knowledge about everything there was to know about the martial world.It seemed like there was nothing she did not know.However, he never expected Mount Thunde
Delainey only knew about Demonic Breath and Murderous Energy.As for what Demonic Breath and Murderous Energy actually were, she did not knowThere was no description of them in Mount Thunder Sect’s ancient books.James continued to pepper her with all sorts of questions.Mount Thunder Sect was nothing short of the most respected sect in the ancient martial world.For a thousand years, every event in the martial art world had been recorded in detail, this also included descriptions of various martial art techniques.The Cadens’ Thirteen Heavenly Swords had also made a name for itself, ranking first among the sword techniques.The Thirteen Heavenly Swords was ranked first because the fourteenth sword was rumored to be able to shake the heavens and earth.Although no one had mastered the fourteenth sword, this legend was the reason it was regarded so highly.Delainey shared a lot of her knowledge with James.Before they knew it, they had already landed in the Southern Plains.
Seeing James draw his Blade of Justice, Delainey felt compelled to ask, “Mr. Caden, is that your Blade of Justice?”“Yep.” James nodded at her.Delainey glanced at the plain-looking sword in James’ hand. She thought for a while and said, “From what I understand, this sword is a legendary sword forged by swordsmiths from all over the world during the time of King Quavon.“The sword is meant to represent absolute and supreme power.“In ancient times, its wielder could kill without first justifying their actions.“It’s an exceptional sword. I’ve read records about it in ancient books. After the dynasty collapsed, the sword was lost, and it eventually ended up with a master swordsmith. The swordsmith was afraid it would fall into a wicked person's hands and pose a danger to the world. So, he used special materials to recast the sword and never proceeded with the final refinement.”“Is that so?”James was amazed by the information Delainey had shared.He knew the history of the Blad
The crack formed on the Blade of Justice’s outer layer.A dazzling Sword Light shone from within the crack.It was a blinding, golden Sword Light.The scene before them seemed like a small, golden sun was floating in midair, right before them.James’ eyes lit up at this sight. He had been carrying the Blade of Justice around all this time but never suspected there was a hidden secret to it.With a wave of his hand, the Blade of Justice floating in the air returned to him.He held the sword and looked closely at it.James finally noticed the external cast on the Blade of Justice.There were a few cracks on the cast.He increased the strength he was using to hold it and forcibly shattered its outer covering.The cracks gradually grew in size. Finally, the cast crumbled off and revealed the Blade of Justice’s true appearance.Mysterious patterns seemed to be carved on the sword’s blade.Upon careful inspection, the pattern could be identified as a lifelike dragon.Looking
