Chapter 1330: Likewise, It Is Also Her Mission
"Alright, tomorrow is the final battle. Go back early and rest, I’m a bit tired myself." Yue Fanchen waved his hand and said."Then I’ll leave first. Take care of yourself." Han Yan said and then left the room, gently closing the door.
As she looked up, Han Yan saw Lu Nianxin. She was about to salute when she saw Lu make a gesture of silence.
Following Lu Nianxin, Han Yan quickly walked forward.
"Grandma, is Uncle’s injury really not serious?" After walking far from the room, Han Yan couldn’t help but ask.
"His foundation is damaged, reaching the Great Sword Master Realm is the best he can hope for in this lifetime." Lu Nianxin sighed and said.
"What?" Han Yan shuddered. Although she knew Yue Fanchen’s injuries were severe, she didn’t expect them to be this grave.
With Yue Fanchen’s talent, ascending to Sword Saint should have been no problem at all. Such a result is probably more painful than death for him.
"Don’t be too saddened. As a descendant of the Zue Family, some things are his mission." Seeing Han Yan’s silent sorrow, Lu Nianxin comforted her.
"Yes, I understand. Grandma, the world is full of wonders, I believe there must be a way to cure Uncle. Don’t be too upset. Also, whether Uncle’s injury can be healed or not, I swear, I will do everything in my power to protect the Zue Family, even if it costs me my life." Han Yan said firmly.
Everyone has their mission. For Yue Fanchen, protecting the Zue Family is his mission, and for this mission, he is willing to give everything, even sacrificing his path as a strong man without hesitation.
And this is also her mission.
"Good, worthy of being a child of the Zue Family." Lu Nianxin said with a comforting look, patting Han Yan on the shoulder and continued, "Tomorrow is the final battle, don’t accompany me tonight. Go see your followers. I believe they will also give me a big surprise tomorrow."
"Yes, they certainly won’t let you down." Han Yan smiled knowingly.
Perhaps in the eyes of others, the strength of Huayue and the others seems weak, and following her to participate in the Sword Sound Academy competition seems like a burden, but Grandma has been secretly observing her every move over the years, so it’s impossible for her not to understand Huayue and the others. She must have seen through their intention of hiding their strength before.
Looking at Grandma’s kind smile, Han Yan felt touched in her heart. The most understanding of herself is still her family, and the reason for such understanding is due to her meticulous care.
Returning to the Princess Manor, Huayue and others were waiting for her in the courtyard, probably knowing that she would definitely come over tonight.
"Have you also discovered the secrets of Jing Jianjue and the others?" Han Yan asked straightforwardly.
"Sword Array!" Zirong said.
"Magic Artifact!" Jiang Yuzhe said.
"Divine Hall Magical Artifact." Huayue added. He certainly had the most authority to speak about the origin of that artifact.
Although Jing Jianjue and the others showed a flaw today, with their cultivation, it’s generally hard for people to notice. Huayue and the others pointed it out with a single sentence, which still made Han Yan deeply gratified.
"Correct, Jing Jianjue and the others were able to significantly enhance their abilities by using the sword array to trigger the power of the Divine Hall Magical Artifact." Han Yan nodded and said.
She had always thought that the laws of the Divine Continent and the Holy Court Continent were completely repulsive, but now it seems, they should actually be mutually reinforcing and opposing. Otherwise, Jing Jianjue and others couldn’t possibly activate the Divine Hall Magical Artifact, let alone rely on it to enhance their power.
However, the intricacies are too profound for ordinary people to comprehend.
As for how the Divine Hall Magical Artifact came about, Han Yan wasn’t inclined to ponder. The temple and the Holy Court have been infiltrating each other for millions of years, and during this time, numerous experts from the other continent have perished, so a few artifacts being left behind is not unusual.
Han Yan didn’t know that Jing Jianjue and the others were originally disciples of Tian Annan. That old guy even had a chance to learn Divine Palace Sword Skill, so it’s naturally not too difficult for him to keep one or two Divine Hall Magical Artifacts privately.
"But even if you discover their secret, what can you do? Their strength wasn’t weak to begin with, and with the enhancement of the Divine Hall Magical Artifacts, what do you have to fight against them with?" Zhu Xiuqing, as always, sat beside Huayue puckered like someone much-aggrieved and said worriedly.
It’s no wonder he’s worried. All his assets are staked on Han Yan. How can he not worry?
He had thought about whether to place the bet on Jing Jianjue would have higher odds of winning, but considering his identity, he finally, unhesitatingly put all hope on Han Yan.
"All the methods in the world lead to the same result. Although I don’t know the mysteries within the sword array of Jing Jianjue and the others, or how they activate that Divine Hall Magical Artifact, there’s one thing I’m sure of. Only when the five of them work together can this artifact’s power be fully realized. As long as they are defeated one by one, the artifact naturally becomes useless." Huayue said.
"It’s easy to say, but your strength..." Zhu Xiuqing abruptly stopped speaking at this point.
"What, do you truly see our strength as so weak in your eyes?" Huayue’s face showed an unusual sly smile.
Zhu Xiuqing said to himself, that’s obvious. It’s well known that you all are dragging things down, but out of respect for Han Yan, he ultimately didn’t say it out loud. More precisely, for fear of being punished, he dared not speak certain words.
In the few days of desperate escape in the Longyan Mountain range, although Han Yan had never beaten him, she hadn’t treated him like a human either. She would tug his neck for the journey, throw him around as a human sandbag when stopping, so much so that he eventually developed the awareness of a human sword pet, and each time before Han Yan even reached out, he would stretch out his neck immediately.
He held a deep fear of this aunt from the bottom of his heart.
"Han Yan, in tomorrow’s final battle, you only need to restrain Jing Jianjue. I can sense that the sword array centers around him, and his power has increased the most. As for the others, leave them to us." Huayue confidently said to Han Yan.
Han Yan looked at Huayue, nodded heavily, and then extended her palm, everything left unspoken.
Huayue also looked at Han Yan, then extended his palm, covering the back of her hand. Next, Zirong extended her palm, followed by Jiang Yuzhe, and finally, Tang Bufan.
Tang Bufan was initially somewhat apprehensive, but soon his gaze turned resolute, his expression exceptionally firm. As for Hua Yuezi, Zirong, and Jiang Yuzhe, all had an unwavering confidence on their faces from start to finish.
The five overlapped their palms, each exuding intense fighting spirit and determination.
