Fiancée Stolen by MC, I Trip Them up

Chapter 573 - 475: Plans for the Litian Sword Sect

The ancestor of the Litian Sword Sect looked at the group of disciples filled with righteous indignation, his expression wavered slightly,

He seemed to recall the time when he led the Litian Sword Sect to glory with high spirits, rising from an obscure sect in the Spirit Realm Eastern Domain to where they are today.

Not so long ago.

He was also a man who swore to conquer the heavens.

But.

As his age changed and the world fickle, his cultivation stalled at the late stage of the Sage Realm, with no hope of any breakthrough even now.

During this time, he had witnessed countless geniuses rise and fall like a fleeting flower within the sect.

All these years.

He has struggled to protect the Litian Sword Sect, repelling numerous powerful enemies.

But his cultivation has ultimately stagnated, and the internal injuries from battles years ago often flare up, leaving his body almost completely worn out.

By now.

The entire Litian Sword Sect still lacked a cultivator who could stand on their own.

He had no choice but to consider the future development of the sect.

In this world of survival of the fittest, without finding a force to rely on, Zhao Ling knows that once he passes, the Litian Sword Sect will likely be devoured without a trace.

He had filtered through the sects in the Central Domain of the Spirit Realm but eventually gave up.

After all, their foundation was not here, even if they were willing to shelter him, it might be beyond their reach, not to mention that seeking shelter from a sect would require them to hand over endless wealth year after year, making it impossible for the Litian Sword Sect to rise again.

Zhao Ling pondered for a long time, until he met Zhao Yi.

This man who seemed terrifying to the extreme in his heart.

The sect’s large array, he merely waved his hand to shatter it without any damage.

In the back mountain, countless cultivators were killed or injured under just one of his punches.

Although the Litian Sword Sect had enmity with Zhao Yi, Zhao Ling could see that Zhao Yi was not one to kill indiscriminately, but would only kill those who blocked his way.

Otherwise.

He, as the strongest force in the Litian Sword Sect, existing as a late-stage Sage Realm and the most powerful Sword Cultivator in attack and kill, would not have been spared by him.

Previously, Zhao Ling might have felt fear, but it was far from leading the entire sect to submit.

However, when Zhao Yi emerged from the Nether Spring with the power of a Sage Realm, Zhao Ling knew that he would sweep across the Spirit Realm, and no one would be his match.

Meanwhile.

The performance of those three demon beasts was noted in his eyes; if he was not a good master, then being beasts of the Sage Realm, they would never be so loyal to humans, guarding the exit faithfully.

Everything made Zhao Ling realize that the future path of the Litian Sword Sect lay before him.

Looking at the disciples below filled with righteous indignation, Zhao Ling understood everything and spoke firmly.

"As the ancestor of the Litian Sword Sect, do you intend to defy my orders? The current state of the sect is strained, and besides me, who else is at the late stage of the Sage Realm?"

"Think carefully, once I depart this world, who will protect the Litian Sword Sect then?"

"Moreover, I have guarded the sect for thousands of years, is it not possible for me to wish for a rest?"

Zhao Ling looked at the disciples with piercing eyes and finally said decisively: "If you disagree with submission, then from today onwards, you will no longer be disciples of the Litian Sword Sect."

His words instantly caused a huge uproar.

Nobody expected the ancestor’s attitude to be so resolute.

Especially those cultivators who initially opposed, they seemed petrified, their pride as cultivators vanished in this moment.

Seeing that no one left, Zhao Ling nodded silently in his heart.

Then, as he looked at Zhao Yi, he found the latter staring at him with disdain.

"You’ve said so much, but do you think I need your submission?"

Zhao Yi truly felt it unnecessary, he only held the thought of fighting if he could and running if he couldn’t, making things convenient and avoiding surprises.

But bringing so many people along would just be a burden.

Even the strongest, Zhao Ling, what help could he possibly offer him?

Zhao Ling’s heart skipped a beat upon this realization.

He had been focused on the submission of the Litian Sword Sect and forgot that the person before him never agreed.

He rubbed his hands together, tentatively asking, "Lord, is the Litian Sword Sect not worthy of your favor?"

Zhao Yi asked, "What can you offer?"

Zhao Ling was taken aback, then tried hard to think,

"Our sect has countless excellent swords, invaluable to Sword Cultivators. Taken out at random, they’d be coveted by countless, coupled with the Litian Sword Sect’s Cultivation Technique, the power they’d wield is unimaginable. I am willing to offer all the swords and techniques to you."

After he spoke, watching Zhao Yi’s expression, he found it unmoved.

Zhao Ling gritted his teeth and continued, "The sect’s Treasure Vault holds thousands of years of accumulation. If you are willing, you can take it anytime, just leave us the necessary resources for cultivation."

At this point, his heart was bleeding; this wealth was accumulated over countless years of the sect, if not to preserve the Litian Sword Sect, he wouldn’t consider handing it over.

But he had no choice, those swords and techniques could not move the person.

Zhao Ling initially thought he would agree, but after seeing Zhao Yi’s expression, he despondently said, "Lord, if even these cannot move you, then I’m afraid the entire sect has nothing better to offer."

"We are all Sword Cultivators, usually dedicated to studying swordsmanship, outside things can’t move you, what’s left is the swordsmanship we’ve researched our whole life."

Zhao Yi was originally unmoved, but upon hearing the latter part, he became interested.

He thought that the New World lacked Cultivation Techniques. Even if its citizens embarked on the path of cultivation, they were more or less the same.

If the Litian Sword Sect could go to the New World, they could certainly teach a group of Sword Immortals there.

Thinking this.

A bit of excitement showed on his face.

After all, they would be Sword Immortals, if truly possible, it would be a swordsman capable of slicing across nineteen prefectures, killing from a thousand miles away.

He couldn’t do it himself, but that doesn’t mean people in the New World can’t have this talent.

Thus, Zhao Yi asked, "Are you willing to go to a new place and teach your swordsmanship to the people there, and if so, I will agree to your request."

Zhao Ling thought he was to have his sect migrate, and immediately nodded in agreement.

"Rest assured, Lord, the Nether Spring no longer exists, the Litian Sword Sect can go anywhere, but there are many in the sect, many families still living in the mundane world, it might take some time."

Zhao Yi nodded: "Understood."

Then, he asked: "Since there will be someone teaching swordsmanship, do you know of other sects in the Eastern Domain that are willing to submit to us?"

Zhao Ling promptly nodded, "The Blood Jade Association’s Spear Technique is unparalleled under heaven, a single spear strike can produce endless changes, truly formidable."

"The Vast Sea Star Pavilion’s Iron Armor Technique, an incredible defensive art, once reaching Great Success, it becomes impervious to blades and spears, common weapons wouldn’t scratch it even slightly. Additionally, Nine Heavens Valley, Yange Palace, and Hundred Ghosts Sect all have different Cultivation Techniques, if you wish them to submit, I am willing to lead the way."

"The Litian Sword Sect also wishes to fight for you."

Zhao Yi waved his hand: "That’s unnecessary. Have everyone prepare for migration immediately. In three days, the entire Litian Sword Sect will be brought to the New World. There, teaching swordsmanship, I will allow you to live long-term."

"Otherwise, you’ll all be banished to the void."
