Chapter 1119: Junior Ancestor (Part 1)
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
His expression was frozen in shock.
He was extremely familiar with the object in front of him!
This belonged to the ancestor!
He had seen it in the ancient records of the Blood Night Sect!
However, he did not expect to see it with his own eyes. How was this possible?
Xue Qin excitedly stepped in front of Wanyan Pojun and said with a trembling voice, “This… It’s the Ancestor’s sword intent! Is the Ancestor still alive?”
“Quickly tell me! Where did you get this?!”
Wanyan Pojun placed his hands behind his back. He was not afraid of the expert in front of him at all. Instead, he said, “I don’t know whether your sect’s ancestor is still alive, but Master asked me to show you this thing and bring you back!”
“This should be enough to make you follow me, right?” Wanyan Pojun put away the small blood-jade sword.
“Lead the way!” Xue Qin and Xue Hong exchanged glances before making their decision.
No matter what, there had to be a reason why this item had appeared in Ye Chen’s hands.
Even if Ye Chen was a junior, they had to meet him this time. Xue Qin and Xue Hong followed Wanyan Pojun to a tall building, where Ye Chen was waiting for them in the room.
When he saw the two of them, he unleashed Xue Qiye’s sword intent from his body. “I believe that you know who my sword intent originates from! Furthermore, this sword intent wasn’t passed down to your Blood Night Sect, but it’s recorded in your sect’s records!”
“Yes.” Xue Qin nodded and sighed. “This is the unique sword intent of the Blood Night Sect’s founder, Divine Lord Qiye, also known as Xue Qiye!”
“Although the ancestor founded our Blood Night Sect and passed down many cultivation techniques, he didn’t pass down this sword intent. When this sword intent is used, it will transform into a powerful fist strike that is infused with blood energy.”
“I can confirm that the sword intent you are emanating is the same as the Ancestor’s!”
“Then, is the Ancestor still alive?”
“Master is naturally alive,” Ye Chen looked at the two of them and said leisurely, “For thousands of years, my power has awed the world. Dare I ask who else in the world but me has done so?”
“You should know the origin of these words!”
“I am aware!” Xue Qin looked at Ye Chen with a strange expression and said, “You know the Ancestor’s sword intent as well as those words. You even claim to be the Ancestor’s disciple, but that’s not enough. How can I be sure that you’re really the Ancestor’s disciple?”
His words were akin to asking if Ye Chen had a trump card!
These sect masters were all old monsters who had lived for more than a thousand years. They would not trust Ye Chen so easily!
“Master! Did you leave any words for your sect that I can use as an identity?”
“For example, what you told me to say to Sect Master Ruo previously?” Ye Chen asked Xue Qiye. For founding ancestors like Xue Qiye, they would definitely leave behind certain secrets that were not known to outsiders so that their own people could contact their own sects in times of need.
Xue Qiye was silent for a moment. Then, he said with a stern expression, “Qiye has existed for thousands of years. My divine might is vast and powerful. May I ask the heavens, who can fight me?”
“These are the words I left behind in front of a Sword Comprehension Stone thousands of years ago after I founded the Blood Night Sect. The second-generation sect master left these words behind as a legacy for future generations. You can tell them this!”
“If it really doesn’t work, I’ll come out myself!”
“Good!” Ye Chen imitated Xue Qiye’s demeanor, as if he was a top-notch expert who looked down on all the heroes in the world. He said, “Qiye has existed for thousands of years. My divine might is vast and powerful. May I ask the heavens, who can fight me?”
His voice seemed to emanate power, and reverberated continuously, shaking the mind. Those words were like a weapon that had stabbed itself into the hearts of Xue Qin and Xue Hong!
“Qiye!”
“Divine Might!”
“Dare I ask the heavens!”
“Who can fight!”
Xue Qin and Xue Hong repeated the same words, recalling the arrogance of their ancestor, who looked down on the world with disdain and had no opponents!
They looked at Ye Chen in surprise. The excitement in their eyes was indescribable.
Yes!
They knew of these words, but these words had never been made public!
Since Ye Chen had said them out loud, he had to be the Ancestor’s disciple!
“Junior Ancestor!” Xue Qin immediately cupped his fists and greeted Ye Chen, “The Blood Night Sect’s seventh generation sect master, Xue Qin, greets the Junior Ancestor!”
“Junior Ancestor!” Xue Hong knelt down and said, “The Blood Night Sect’s seventh generation vice sect master, Xue Hong, greets the Junior Ancestor!”
To them, Xue Qiye was the founder of the sect, so his disciple was naturally the junior ancestor!
“Rise!” Ye Chen reached out and waved his hand gently and an invisible force lifted the two of them up and he continued, “Master is still alive. Now, I’m raising the flag to fight against the Blood Spirit Clan because Master is supporting me!”
“I see. The Ancestor is still here!”
“I knew it. The Ancestor wouldn’t die so easily!”
The two of them were overjoyed and thanked Ye Chen. Their attitude toward Ye Chen also changed instantly.
In terms of status, Ye Chen was now the most respected and important existence in the Blood Night Sect!
“Sigh, I didn’t expect this!”
“The Blood Night Sect that I founded and passed down has ended up like this.”
“Although the second and third sect masters were Divine King realm experts, they died in the ancient war. The fourth sect master was a ninth-level Supreme Emperor realm expert and could live for tens of thousands of years. How could he be replaced so quickly? Disciple, help me ask them why,” Xue Qiye said.
Ye Chen repeated his words to the two people in front of him.
“Junior Ancestor,” Xue Qin said, sweating profusely. He sighed and explained, “2,000 years ago, 500 years ago, our fourth and fifth generation sect masters tried to resist the Blood Spirit Clan. However, before they could do anything, they were killed by the Blood Spirit Clan. The sixth generation sect master and vice sect master also died at the hands of the Huang family’s Ancestor.”
“That’s why we changed leaders so quickly!”
He sighed and looked at the vice sect master as he said, “I thought that we were orphans without a backbone and could only follow the crowd. We were in danger under the rule of the Blood Spirit Clan. However, now that our junior ancestor has returned, we will definitely follow him and raise the flag of resistance!”
“Yes!” Xue Hong’s eyes were firm and teary. Like an orphan who had found his parents, he said, “Junior Ancestor, you are now the leader of the Blood Night Sect. Although we don’t have much left, we are willing to fight to the death as long as you give us the order!”
“We’ve been burdened and aggrieved for thousands of years, and could only watch our beloved disciples and even our own children die at the hands of the Blood Spirit Clan. We didn’t dare to resist, not because we’re afraid of death, but because we were afraid that the Blood Spirit Clan would wipe out our entire sect!”
There were so many sects in the Kunlun Mountains, yet they did not go against the Blood Spirit Clan. It was not because they lacked heroes, but rather that they lacked unity.
The resistance of a single sect, or even a few sects, was useless. Even if several factions gathered, they would be quickly suppressed by the Huang family or the Blood Spirit Clan. Therefore, they could only endure.
They had no choice, as they lacked the strength and numbers to resist. Doing so would only result in death!
