Chapter 902: The Old Friends Meet Again!
In the bright night, a gentle breeze blew over. Ye Chen looked at the Heavenly Creation Manual in his hand quietly and said slowly, “I know most of the materials used to build the divine ship in this manual. It might be useful to me in the future!
“It’s a pity that there are limited precious materials on Earth. Whether I can forget it depends on fate!”
He shook his head and put the Heavenly Creation Manual away. Then, he looked at Ye Wushuang and said, “That’s right, how did you survive the calamity of the 10,000 Swords Pavilion?”
Ye Wushuang stared at Ye Chen with his deep, sword-like eyes. There was a faint gleam in his eyes, “Brother, Old Man Myriad Sword predicted what would happen to the 10,000 Swords Pavilion the day the Xiao clan arrived at the pavilion, but…
“He could’ve protected many people, but he chose to get me out of the 10,000 Swords Pavilion alive!”
The expression of this white-clothed youth changed slightly, “That day, he handed over the Heavenly Creation Manual and the 10,000 Swords Pavilion’s inheritance to me and told me to escape through the secret tunnel behind the pavilion’s back mountain!”
He enunciated each word clearly, “None of the thousands of people from the 10,000 Swords Pavilion chose to retreat. They all died in the battle!”
He took a deep breath in.
He would never forget what had happened that day. Xiao clan had sent many powerhouses to the 10,000 Swords Pavilion, and over a thousand disciples had sacrificed themselves to protect them.
He could not forget how Old Man Myriad Sword charged into the Xiao clan’s camp and shouted, “Who dares to fight me?!”
He could not forget that Sun Yi, the pavilion master of the 10,000 Swords Pavilion, clearly had a chance of survival after escorting him into the secret tunnel.
However, he chose to give up. He even destroyed the entrance to the secret tunnel and resolutely chose to live and die with the sect!
Initially, Ye Wushuang was only the Sword Spirit of Ye Chen’s Heavenly Emperor Sword. He was neither a sword nor a human. He was just a spiritual being who only obeyed Ye Chen.
After being reborn as a human, he gradually understood what people were.
He was even more touched that there were so many people who were willing to give up their lives for him on the path of his growth.
For instance, Old Man Myriad Sword, Elder Qing Xuan…
“10,000 Swords Pavilion has done you a great favor!”
A hint of guilt flashed through Ye Chen’s eyes, “If I had come to the Kunlun Ruins earlier, this might not have happened…”
“No, big brother, it’s not your fault!”
Ye Wushuang smiled coldly, “What I hate is that I didn’t have the ability to stop everything at that time. That’s why I swore to destroy Xiao clan in the secret tunnel that day!”
As he finished speaking, a torrential killing intent radiated from his body. This killing intent was almost tangible.
In the past half a month, he had spent almost all his time in closed-door cultivation in order to fight Su Qilin. As a result, he had no idea of anything about the outside world, nor did he know about the Xiao clan’s destruction.
“You no longer to worry about that!”
Ye Chen walked over and patted his shoulder gently. He comforted him, “Because I’ve destroyed Xiao clan and the Xiao clan’s patriarch. His soul has dispersed!”
“Big brother destroyed the Xiao clan?”
A smile appeared on Ye Wushuang’s face when he heard that, “That’s good too. It can be considered a redemption for the 10,000 Swords Pavilion!”
He could not help but look at Ye Chen seriously when he said that, “Brother, I wonder if you can set up the 10,000 Swords Pavilion’s inheritance in Ninth Peak after Sword Sect has been converted to Ninth Peak?”
“Of course!”
Ye Chen chuckled softly and asked immediately, “Then, how did you enter this Sword Sect and become enemy with Su Qilin?”
“After I left 10,000 Swords Pavilion’s secret tunnel, I wandered around the Kunlun Ruins. I’ve always wanted to return to the secular world and reunite with big brother!”
Ye Wushuang explained slowly, “It’s a pity that the world barrier leading to the secular world is controlled by the ten high sects, and the people guarding the entrance are quite powerful.
“Later on, I realized that Xiao clan was extremely respectful toward the Sword Sect, and it just so happened that the Sword Sect opened its doors to recruit disciples, so I joined them!
“I was targeted by the First Peak during the competition, and it was Elder Qing Xuan of the Ninth Peak who spoke up for me. Because of that, I joined the Ninth Peak after winning first place!”
Ye Chen gradually came to a realization upon hearing that.
“The reason why I’m hostile toward Su Qilin!”
The coldness in Ye Wushuang’s eyes shot out, “It’s because after I joined the Ninth Peak, I secretly went to Xiao clan and accidentally learned that they once discussed that the destruction of the 10,000 Swords Pavilion seemed to be related to the First Peak!
“Later on, I found out from a Xiao clan’s core disciple that the 10,000 Swords Pavilion was destroyed under Su Qilin’s orders!”
A cold smile flashed across his face, “Since Su Qilin is the culprit behind the destruction of the 10,000 Swords Pavilion, how could I ignore that?”
His personality was similar to Ye Chen’s. They were both cold people. However, he could not remain cold to people who had helped him.
“Let bygones be bygones. Now that you and I are reunited, with me here, no one can bully you anymore!”
Ye Chen nodded lightly. Subsequently, he seemed to have thought of something and said with a mysterious smile, “Oh yeah, let me introduce you to an old friend!”
“Old friend?” Ye Wushuang was confused.
Ye Chen chuckled softly, “Old Demon, why are you pretending to be quiet now that you’ve met someone you know? Didn’t you say that Wushuang is the person you’re most upset with?”
As soon as he finished speaking, a gentle streak of black gleam shot out from his body, revealing Night Demon’s face.
This old man stroked his goatee and sized up Ye Wushuang while clicking his tongue in wonder, “I never thought that the No .1 sword in history would turn into a pretty boy without a hair on his face!
“If Mao Mao and Dou Dou, the pair of love-struck sisters, saw this, they would probably be extremely disappointed and throw themselves at me instead!”
That was what he said, but the old demon’s eyes were filled with envy, jealousy, and resentment.
“You old man is really tough. You didn’t die even after you’ve gone through!” Ye Wushuang’s expression turned cold, but a trace of warmth flowed through his eyes.
When Ye Chen was attacked by everyone back then, it could be said that the Night Demon Armor was the best among the few great immortal weapons.
Under those circumstances, he was the one who risked his life to protect Ye Chen, which resulted in him being smashed into pieces.
Night Demon fumed with rage, “Scram! How would I die when you’re not?!”
“Do you want a beating again?” Ye Wushuang’s smile turned cold.
“Forget it, forget it. I’m too old to argue with you!” Night Demon hurriedly found a way out.
Among Ye Chen’s few immortal weapons, the Heavenly Emperor Sword was the most powerful. Of course, Ye Wushuang was the most powerful among them.
It was almost universally acknowledged. After all, Night Demon had challenged Wushuang’s status more than once, and in the end, he was always beaten up until he had to surrender.
Ye Chen smiled warmly when he heard their conversation.
Night Demon was someone who liked to show off even though he did not have the strength. He was someone who took advantage of his seniority. On the other hand, Wushuang was someone who would not make a sound if he could make a move. Naturally, most of the time, Night Demon would admit defeat in such a confrontation.
It had been more than a thousand years, and these two little guys had tried to undermine each other the moment they met. However, one could hear the strong emotions in their voices.
At that moment, Ye Wushuang seemed to have thought of something. He suddenly glanced at Ye Chen and said, “By the way, big brother, that old thing, the Emperor Brush, seems to be in the Kunlun Ruins too…”
