Chapter 661: Chapter 660: East Desolate First Sword Dao Sacred Land

"This is the Sword Talisman of the Third Peak from the Li Mountain Sword Pavilion. Should Young Master Ye find the time, he’s welcome to visit our Third Peak."

Song Qilin offered the Sword Talisman of the Li Mountain Sword Pavilion.

"The Sword Talisman of the Third Peak..."

Mo Zidong’s eyes went wide when he saw this scene.

Dammit, this Sword Talisman from the Li Mountain Sword Pavilion has always been a symbol of status.

Once you possess this talisman, you effectively have the Pavilion’s protection, and even among the East Desolate Ten Dominators, many covet such a Talisman as an added safeguard.

Besides, what great fortune it is to establish a connection with the Li Mountain Sword Pavilion.

In the East Desolation Domain, the Li Mountain Sword Pavilion and the Mountain God Dao share many similarities.

The disciples of the Li Mountain Sword Pavilion are few; adding up the disciples from all seven peaks, the number doesn’t exceed three hundred.

The disciples of the Li Mountain Sword Pavilion maintain a tradition of wandering the martial world alone with a sword, whether they are from the older generation or the younger one.

They often roam the East Desolate, sparring with others to perfect their swordsmanship to Great Success.

As the heir of the Third Peak of the Li Mountain Sword Pavilion, Song Qilin naturally follows suit.

He frequently spars with others but rarely makes acquaintances; he had never before offered his Sword Talisman to anyone.

Many actually kept their eyes on the Sword Talisman in Song Qilin’s hands.

No one expected that Song Qilin would give it away so readily, offering it to Ye Xuan!

Ye Lingyi and Ye Lingzhu were also casting envious glances, filled with envy.

Although they were also famous prodigies within the East Desolate, they were still somewhat inferior to Song Qilin.

Song Qilin could be considered one of the most eminent amongst the prodigies in the East Desolate.

Ye Xuan, looking at the Sword Talisman, did not reach out to take it. His eyes calm, he spoke in a light voice, "If you truly wish to improve your swordsmanship, I advise you to set aside your prejudices against the Sword Tomb and pay it a visit. That would benefit you more than wandering the East Desolate for ten years."

Upon these words, the expressions of many present changed.

The Sword Tomb, the Li Mountain Sword Pavilion.

In the East Desolate, not many mention this historic grudge.

Because the Sword Tomb had retired from the world for many years.

But Mo Zidong from the Mo family, Ye Lingyi, and Ye Lingzhu from the Ye Family were very clear about it.

In fact, there were many unresolved grievances between the Li Mountain Sword Pavilion and the Sword Tomb.

In the past, the Sword Tomb was undisputedly recognized as the foremost Sacred Land of the Sword Dao in the East Desolate.

In front of the Sword Tomb, the Li Mountain Sword Pavilion was nothing.

The Li Mountain Sword Pavilion, naturally propelled by ambition, constantly strove to reach greater heights, striving to rival the Sword Tomb.

But just when the Li Mountain Sword Pavilion was fully prepared to challenge the Sword Tomb, the latter suddenly announced its retirement and vanished from public view.

While it deflated the Li Mountain Sword Pavilion’s momentum, it also filled them with a sense of humiliation.

Because, after the retirement of the Sword Tomb, the Li Mountain Sword Pavilion became recognized as the premier Sacred Land of the Sword Dao in the East Desolate.

This felt as though their status had been conceded by the Sword Tomb.

The title was not honourably attained.

Over time, the Li Mountain Sword Pavilion’s discontent toward the Sword Tomb only grew.

Hence, the Pavilion Master of the Li Mountain Sword Pavilion personally went to pay respects at the Sword Tomb.

Then...

He lost.

Though only a very few knew of this, there are no secrets that time does not reveal, and eventually, word got out.

It was from that point on that the gap between the Li Mountain Sword Pavilion and the Sword Tomb grew bigger.

Of course, this was actually the heart demon of the Li Mountain Sword Pavilion itself.

The Sword Tomb has not uttered a single word from beginning to end.

"Actually... I’m quite eager to visit the Sword Tomb as well, but the Master has ordered that before breaking into the Saint Realm, I am not to go to the Sword Tomb to pay homage," said Song Qilin with a wry smile.

Ye Xuan curled his lip and said indifferently, "The Sword Tomb has been around for such a long time and isn’t as pedantic as you are. Li Mountain Sword Pavilion is nothing but a child in front of the Sword Tomb, and such tantrums are completely pointless."

"All you want is to surpass the Sword Tomb and become the true number one Sword Dao Sacred Land of East Desolate, but if you are unwilling to truly acknowledge the strength of the other side, then what’s the point?"

"After Hengduan Mountain, I’ll pay a visit to the Sword Tomb. If you’re sincere, I can take you along then."

"Now, you should head back."

Hearing this, Song Qilin could only silently withdraw his Sword Talisman, fist-bump Ye Xuan, and after giving Huang Yue a nod, he turned and left.

Once Song Qilin had left, Ye Lingyi couldn’t help but click his tongue and say, "Young Master, you’re really bold in what you say. If those old folks at Li Mountain Sword Pavilion heard you, they’d probably come to our Eternal Mountain and wreak havoc."

Those words just spoken, if heard by the ears of the eternal elders of Li Mountain Sword Pavilion, would absolutely cause a thunderous fury.

Ye Xuan replied with a faint smile, "If you can’t even clearly recognize your own status, then how can you talk about being the number one Sword Dao Sacred Land of East Desolate?"

"It’s nothing more than an empty reputation."

Although he did not know much about the Li Mountain Sword Pavilion, during his time at the Mo family, he had made it his business to understand the backgrounds of the other dominators of East Desolate in broad terms.

At a glance, he could tell that the Li Mountain Sword Pavilion had reached a point of complacency due to the downfall of a past Pavilion Master.

Although the current Li Mountain Sword Pavilion seemed very powerful, in reality? Once the Sword Tomb made its move, Li Mountain Sword Pavilion would have to step aside.

The title of the number one Sword Dao Sacred Land of East Desolate was utterly false.

Conversely, the Sword Tomb had never contended for such vain titles since ancient times.

But when it comes to the Sword Dao Sacred Land, who can bypass the two words, Sword Tomb?

This is true strength!

If Song Qilin could see beyond this, Ye Xuan wouldn’t mind, considering the fellow’s pursuit of the Sword Dao, taking him along for a visit to the Sword Tomb.

Of course, if he couldn’t break out of the self-imposed prison, then forget it.

This was something only the Li Mountain Sword Pavilion could accomplish.

No one else could help.

"Everyone disperse, and wait in peace for the day after tomorrow when Hengduan Mountain opens," Ye Xuan waved his hand and said.

Upon hearing this, everyone scattered.

"Youwei, you should be about to step into the Yin Yang Realm, but don’t be in a hurry. Let’s wait until we get to Hengduan Mountain," Ye Xuan said specifically to Zhou Youwei.

"Okay!" Zhou Youwei, not asking for any further details, nodded lightly.

She had unconditional trust in Ye Xuan.

"You can give Bingyi and Ling’er some guidance these next two days. I’ll be stepping out for a bit," Ye Xuan said softly.

"Where are you going?" Zhou Youwei asked, puzzled.

Slap!

Ye Xuan slapped Zhou Youwei’s body, his form vanishing as he left, laughing, "Someone’s looking for me."

Zhou Youwei felt a current pass through her body, her pretty face blushed crimson, and watching Ye Xuan who had already left, she bit her seductive red lips, her eyes filled with shyness as she muttered, "My lord, can you not always sneak attack me? Youwei is already yours..."

Ye Xuan, having already disappeared, naturally heard these words, and a trace of a smile crossed his lips.

Lovely Youwei, you’re becoming more and more adorable.

Collecting his thoughts, Ye Xuan left the moving palace complex and arrived alone at the foot of a secluded part of Hengduan Mountain.

This place was hidden and unvisited.

However, upon Ye Xuan’s arrival, two figures appeared.

Duan Rourou.

And her grandfather, Duan Jingcong.
