79: Arrival in Zhongzhou
......
In the void transmission passage.
Wang Feng and the others only felt their vision go black, and when they opened their eyes again, they couldn't see anything.
“Fairy Sister, wha-wha-what's going on? Why can't I see anything?!”
Wang Feng's tone was panicked, and in his fear, he nervously hugged the fragrant Jiang Hanxi beside him.
“Let go.”
“Where is this? I'm scared. Where have we been transmitted to?”
“Why can't my feet touch the ground? We're not trapped here, are we?”
Wang Feng tightly held Jiang Hanxi's arm, his entire body practically pressed against her, his words stammering.
“We haven't been transmitted out yet. We need to wait a little longer.”
After Jiang Hanxi finished speaking, she tried to pull Wang Feng's hand away, but he seemed to be glued to her.
Jiang Hanxi's eyes flashed in the darkness.
Ancient Cold Pupil!
Activate!!
Jiang Hanxi's vision instantly became incredibly clear in the dark void.
However, apart from being able to see people, the void was still empty.
Turning her head to look at her right arm, Wang Feng was like a chewed piece of bubblegum, sticking tightly to her.
His expression still showed panic, his eyes darting around, exactly like a normal person in a panic.
It seems... this is his first transmission.
Jiang Hanxi couldn't help but think of the first time she was transmitted.
Back then, the first time she was transmitted through the void, she was also like Wang Feng, scared and at a loss.
Her Sifu was right beside her, but she knew that if she trembled with fear over such a small matter, she would definitely be scolded by her Sifu.
So at that time, she had no one to rely on.
She could only suppress the fear in her heart, burying all her grievances deep inside.
Until... she saw light again.
That feeling of suppression, that emotion of fear, that helplessness of having no one to rely on.
Even though her Sifu was right beside her, it made her feel like she didn't have even a tiny bit of security.
Only those who have experienced it... truly know.
Jiang Hanxi looked at Wang Feng for a while, then gently lowered her hand, as if tacitly allowing Wang Feng to hold her like that.
At least he... now... can rely on me.
“Sifu, Sifu, wha-wha-what's going on?!”
“Why are my feet numb? Why can't I see anything?!”
Since there was no ground to step on, Xiao Hao thought his feet had gone numb.
Chu Yaner fumbled around and then slapped the back of the head of the person yelling beside her!
“Ah!”
“Who! Who hit me?!”
Xiao Hao assumed a defensive posture, dramatically closed his eyes, and used his spiritual sense.
Next move, he would definitely find whatever hit him!
Here it comes!
Slap!
“What are you yelling about? This is a normal phenomenon of transmission!”
Xiao Hao was silenced by that slap to the head and that sentence. He mumbled “Oh, oh” twice and obediently stopped talking.
“Hahaha!”
Immediately, several sounds of laughter came from beside him, with Chu Yaner laughing the loudest.
The way Wang Feng and Xiao Hao were treated formed a stark contrast.
Apart from Jiang Hanxi and Wang Feng, in the perception of the other five, they felt they hadn't moved.
Because in this void, there was nothingness; with no objects to reference, they seemed to be static.
A speed so fast it's unimaginable, that is stillness.
It was so dark, and his feet couldn't touch the ground.
Xiao Hao was also a bit afraid to move, and he couldn't help but lean closer to the nearest person beside him.
“Who?!”
Chu Yaner suddenly felt something bump her chest, startling her.
“Old Chu Woman?”
“Dead Rat, don't lean over here.”
Chu Yaner cursed. Xiao Hao didn't respond to her; he only felt a bit of security with someone nearby.
And Chu Yaner, surprisingly, didn't say anything more for some reason.
......
Central Continent, Sword Sect.
At the inner sect's transmission array, a Sect Master and many elders were leisurely chatting in front of a transmission array.
“I heard that the branch sect in the Southern Region sent five good seedlings.”
“I only need one.”
“Is it up to you to decide who gets one?”
As the elders chatted, they gradually started to disagree with each other, almost coming to blows.
After all, they heard that these were five Sword Bodies, and those with Sword Bodies were undoubtedly talented.
As long as they could take in one, teaching him well would also bring them benefits and glory.
“Silence!”
The Sect Master, seated in the main position, raised his hand and called out, which finally stopped the heated discussion.
The Sword Sect elders waited for the Sect Master to speak, to see what he wanted to say.
“I only want the Solar Sword Body and the Taiyin Sword Body. You can have the rest as you please.”
The Sect Master's last sentence almost made the elders fall to the ground.
You want them, and you have to stop everyone to say so?
Having power makes you arrogant, huh?!
“Thank you, Sect Master!”
The elders still had to respectfully thank the Sect Master for leaving three for them.
However, they also knew that they were not qualified to teach those two Sword Bodies.
Swish, swish, swish!
At this moment, sounds came from the transmission array in front of them, followed by a rising light screen.
They're here!
The elders immediately became serious from their bickering, their gazes sharp and solemn as they looked at the transmission array.
Seven figures appeared with a whoosh inside the transmission array, and the light screen disappeared.
“Are you the Sword Bodies mentioned by Little Sword Sect?”
The Sword Sect Master spoke, while the elders sat upright to the side, highlighting his prestige.
“Greetings, seniors!”
Apart from Wang Feng and the other three, Chen Baixiao and his two companions cupped their hands and bowed to the elders.
“Why aren't the four of you bowing?”
An elder spoke, also wondering why there were two extra people; weren't there only five Sword Bodies?
Wang Feng felt a bit displeased upon hearing this, but he didn't show it. He disliked people who put on airs.
If it were by age, he and Jiang Hanxi were undoubtedly much older than these people, even though he hadn't been alive for a period of time.
Back then, when he reached the Great Emperor Realm, he didn't often put on airs with people.
At most, he would just unleash his aura to show off.
However, he couldn't do anything now, because he couldn't defeat them.
If this were his eighth life, and they put on airs a bit more, Wang Feng would have already unleashed his cultivation to shake them to their cores.
“No matter, these are just formalities.”
The Sect Master waved his hand.
“Hmph!”
An elder snorted. When the number of people increases, eccentrics also increase; this is an unchanging law.
“You two, come over here.”
The Sect Master glanced over and spoke, recognizing Xiao Hao and Chu Yaner's physiques with just one look.
Wang Feng glanced at his face and information. It seemed that the Sect Master from ten thousand years ago had already abdicated.
Sword Reverie
Identity: Sword Sect Master
Realm: Quasi-Emperor Middle Stage
Natal Weapon: Top-grade Saint Artifact, Heaven-Blazing Sword.
Wang Feng didn't expect him to have Jian as his surname.
Quasi-Emperor Middle Stage. It's better to be cautious in front of such a person.
After reaching Quasi-Emperor, the realm would be divided into Early Stage, Middle Stage, Late Stage, and Peak.
Because every advancement after Quasi-Emperor was a qualitative leap.
Xiao Hao looked at Wang Feng, who gently nodded at him.
Xiao Hao and Chu Yaner walked up to Sword Reverie, wondering what he wanted to do.
“Are you willing to take me as your master?”
“I am!”
Chu Yaner saw the attitude of the old men towards this person and knew he was definitely not simple, so she quickly agreed.
“I'm not!”
Xiao Hao, on the other hand, flatly refused, a completely unexpected answer that left the Sect Master Sword Reverie speechless.
“He is! He is!”
Wang Feng stepped forward and shouted twice beside Xiao Hao.
“Sifu...”
“If I tell you to acknowledge him, then acknowledge him. One Sifu or two Sifus, it's all the same. Just remember that I'm still your Sifu in the future.”
Wang Feng abruptly cut off whatever Xiao Hao was about to say.
“Um, are you the Sect Master?”
Although Wang Feng already knew in his heart, he still had to ask, to go through the formality.
“Mm.”
“Well, then, you see, our Disciple's First Sifu, when he used to guide him, his cultivation was all painstakingly saved up, sigh~”
The Sect Master glanced at him. Good heavens, he was asking him for things.
