Supreme Emperor of Swords

Chapter 380 The Truth

“Younger disciple Ding, from now onwards, you’ll be the first prodigy of my Swordsmanship-sect. Not even those martial artists who are related by bloodline will be able to hold a candle to you,” a voice rang out thus.

Ding Hao raised his head and looked in that direction. He was stupefied. That person was actually His Highness, the leader of the Swordsmanship-sect’s Sky Sword Peak, Tang Folei.

That super expert who stood opposite Qi Qingshan was covered in blood. A terrible scar was formed on the lower part of his left shoulder and it had almost cleaved him in half. And even his right leg had almost been broken by someone. Apparently, he had undergone a terrible battle and what made Ding Hao so shocked was the fact that Tang Folei, who should have been in the camp of the rebels that consisted of Oubo and the other rebels, and who had once been sworn enemies with Qi Qingshan, was at the moment actually smiling and standing shoulder to shoulder with Qi Qingshan, as if they were on very good terms. “This... what is actually going on?”

“Praise for Senior disciple Tang,” Ding Hao said, taking a bow.

Even though Ding Hao was much younger, in terms of seniority, he was definitely on par with Senior Disciple Tang and could even pose a challenge to him.

“Younger disciple Ding, from today onward, you will be the real power elder of the sect, and you will be substituting Martial uncle, taking over Sword-hidden Peak officially. You will be able to monitor the six peaks and six authorities of the sect, and shepherd the sect. You will have the right to give the death sentence, and you’ll be able to give sentence without asking anyone in cases where the disciples of the primordial grandmaster level breach the rules. You’ll be able to arrest the primordial for flouting the rules.” The Head of Humans Li Jianyi smiled faintly. Apparently, he was satisfied greatly with the results of that day and he nodded his head at Ding Hao. “Younger Disciple Ding, congratulations.”

“Haha, congratulations indeed!”

“For the battle today, Younger disciple Ding, your good name will be spread throughout Snow Province, and you’ll not be losing to that Magic Skills master, Mu Tianyang, Phoenix, neither to Scorching Hot Sabre Sentences to Ghost Image, Setting out with One Saber and the rest. This is the good fortune of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, haha!”

“Accomplishments of the young, this is truly remarkable!”

And the rest of the people who were present heartily congratulated him one after the other.

The strong will always take the upper hand in that world. Before, even though Ding Hao’s performance was shocking, and having become the peer of many influential people when he had come knocking on Qi Qingshan’s door, his abilities were still falling short. Ultimately, he still had not been able to achieve the sincere approval of everyone. Thanks to that battle, Ding Hao had killed off “Book”, “Sword”, “Painting” and Black Inflammation, those four masters; he had also killed off the Martial King Realm, and appeared to have great powers indeed, which made everyone look at him in a different light.

That meant that no matter if it was in terms of ability or seniority, the great heads could not help but admit that Ding Hao had already become an influential member of the Swordsmanship-sect.

It was even more terrifying that Ding Hao was only a youth who was not even eighteen. At such a tender young age, his powers were limitless; who knew what levels he would reach after ten or twenty years?

Hence, even the great heads were unable to avoid getting close to Ding Hao.

“Thank you Senior Brothers for your praise,” Ding Hao said in a very relaxed manner. Replying, as soon as he who had incarnated into the Devil White Ape opened his mouth, his voice was like rolling thunder that crashed into the space between heaven and earth. It was as if wind and thunder accompanied his voice, and the air was rolling with the clouds; the power was unparalleled.

The crowd was full of praise for such a sight, and soon, they dispersed like flowing light.

As for that battle, the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect had been painstakingly staging it for many years. Finally, it had managed to inflict a strong blow, completely obliterating the dirty spies within some of the sects. They had completely removed the impurities in the sects and at the same time, causing some of the enemy sects of these nine great sects, including some rival sects of the Tranquility Academy, to suffer from great losses.

That was just a part of the Swordsmanship-sect’s plan to take over the entire Snow Province.

However, at that showdown, the great heads had suffered from severe injuries and thus they had hurried back to nurse their wounds.

Out of everyone, there was only Qi Qingshan who looked as though he had not been harmed in any way. Clearly, he had great power.

“Stupid fool, hurry up and undo the “Human Champion Transformation” Magic Skills. The battle has already ended, it’s important to keep the image of the Great Ape—it must be a considerable waste of Qi.” Qi Qingshan’s face carried a smile, and the more he looked at that disciple, the more he found him pleasing to the eye. Ever since he had taken in Ding Hao as his disciple, his spirits had improved gradually by the day, and he was almost walking out from the shadowy yin memories of being the great disciple.

“Disciple obeys the order.”

Ding Hao manipulated the qi inside his body, filling up his body with the fierce and violent force of fire, and slowly retreating along the meridians to the mysterious Dantian seeds in his chest, which turned into a drop of white blood of essence and mysterious Qi seeds that fused together.

A feeling of fatigue spread all over and he felt his body was starting to shrink. White fluff disappeared from his body and his face transformed into that visage of his jade-like handsome youth of the glorious days.

The traumas of not reaching the Martial King Realm’s forced push for “Beast Transformation” were not very visible on Ding Hao’s body. Apart from feeling a little weak, Ding Hao felt that his strength had not been halved as in the myths. The qi in his body had been generated because he had spent his energy in the previous battle and it was not very clear that it had declined.

“Haha, kid, this is the advantage of “Saintly Being of Saber and Sword”. There will never be a bottleneck in your training and neither would there be tribulations. The use of different Magic skills will not produce any side-effects even, hahaha.” In his mind, there rang out the simultaneous laughs of Saber Master and Sword Master at the same time.

...

At the same time.

Within ten miles of the arc of Heaven, a beautiful figure clad in bright red armour stopped in its tracks. It looked at Ding Hao from afar; it gave a sigh, and turned around to leave.

“Sister, since you did not care about wasting your vital essence in your body while developing the “Divine Dragon Blood Circulation” great powers, why have you come before our eyes to simply leave right after?” A little girl with pigtails tugged at the edge of Xie Jieyu’s shirt and asked quizzically.

“The crisis is over. What’s the point of going to visit him again?” Xie Jieyu flew in the air, and the Astral Wind rustled her black ink colored hair.

“Of course there’s a meaning to it,” said the little girl who said in a very dissatisfied tone and rolled her eyes, explaining,” I just want to let this rascal know that for him, you didn’t even mind sacrificing your own cultivation to hasten the process, and you should at least let him understand what you really mean. I feel guilty towards you sister. According to my experience, you have to be this aggressive when grabbing guys.”

Xie Jieyu snorted in laughter and slapped heavily on Ding Ding’s head, smiling and scolding, “You’re only a few years of age, from where would you get experience?”

The little girl clutched her own pigtails and said very pitifully, “That’s the experience that I get from observation. Sister, even though I have no idea why you would like this rascal Ding Hao, if you don’t put in a bit more effort, that Li Yiruo, that damned woman, will take him away.”

Pa!

Yet again another tremble.

Xie Jieyu said in a note of seriousness. “Remember, in the future, you are not to say such things about Li Yiruo.”

The little girl stretched her neck in some fright. She continued to say, “Alright. But sister, surely you have to make careful considerations. In case in the future, you truly... You and Ding Hao’s friendship can turn into enmity!”

“I definitely know about this,” Xie Jieyu smiled faintly and she transformed into a candlelight, vanishing into the distant reaches of the Heavens.

...

...

Within five or four days after the end of the battle, the whole Swordsmanship-sect underwent a ground-shaking transformation.

A massive and weighty cleansing force started to roll out like thunderbolt.
