Secret Records of the Leader of the Beichen Sword Sect

Chapter 1156 - 579: Devoted Goose (Part 2)

You must be his successor! You must be his direct disciple! That’s the only way you could get involved in the family affairs! Judging by your cultivation, it happens to be at Golden Core Perfection! You must be a Mystic Sect disciple coming down the mountain for training, specifically to cut off mortal karma, settling worldly affairs for your master! Isn’t that right?

Just by following you, the old fellow is bound to show up sooner or later!"

Alright, old age brings cunning, even if you’re not good at arithmetic, you can still make a guess that’s close enough, even though it’s not right at all...

But Chen Xuantian couldn’t just say, actually, it’s because your man was slain by my brother, who also devoured his soul, thus causing this mess, which made him scratch his head anxiously,

"No, Tang Sect Master, isn’t there something off with you as well? I’ve never heard of waiting for a husband for ten years. Waiting a thousand years seems too fantastical, doesn’t it? It’s simply unscientific!

Moreover, why do this at all? If you understand Mystic Sect folks’ tendency to cut off karma, you should have figured it out over these years, right? He’s not coming to find you, which means he wants to break this fate with you!"

Who knew Tang Xian’er would still shake her head,

"Impossible, that heartless guy isn’t someone who would leave without saying goodbye. He’s always decisive and seeks revenge for every grievance. If he wanted to break the engagement, he would definitely speak clearly to me face-to-face.

Besides, among his enemies back then, the most formidable one is still alive. I’ve been secretly monitoring the situation. With his character, how could he possibly let such a great enemy go without taking revenge?

I know, with his abilities, he’s definitely cultivated to the Nascent Soul Realm and awoken memories of his past life. That’s why he’s returned to his master for secluded cultivation! Or perhaps he’s temporarily entangled by past life’s trivia. Priorities vary in urgency, once he resolves his matters, achieves great success, and avenges all grudges! He will surely come back to marry me!"

Chen Xuantian saw this and thought, oh no, this woman is becoming too obsessed with the idea of marriage, soon she might really turn into a "waiting-wife stone", speechless, he could only think, as long as you’re happy,

"Then the Sect Master should think more positively, looking on the bright side, maybe he just died?"

Tang Xian’er cursed angrily,

"Rubbish! Coming and going with the pine, flying south like the wild goose! Ice melting moves north, the wife is Yin, the husband is Yang!

The wild goose he gave me is still alive! How could he be dead! That heartless guy will definitely come back to marry me!"

Chen Xuantian was taken aback, didn’t expect her to reason so logically, truly worthy of a thousand-year-old leftover woman, she really is old enough.

The so-called harmonious call of the wild geese, at the break of dawn, using a wild goose as a token, following the Yin and Yang. The ancients believed the wild goose migrated north and south with the sun and had only one partner for life. It flew in formation, landed in ranks, marked weddings, migrated with the seasons, never breaking its rhythm.

Hence in ancient wedding rituals, during the five rites of proposal, name inquiry, fortune selection, setting the date, and meeting in-laws, the groom’s side needed to bring wild geese as gifts to the bride’s family.

But then again, could Taiji Realm’s wild geese really live a thousand years? Furthermore, isn’t it usually a goose given by commoners...

Tang Xian’er glared at him,

"What nonsense are you thinking again!"

Chen Xuantian could only catch himself and respond,

"Ahem... oh, I was just thinking that regardless, it’s such a good marriage bond not being cherished properly, the Chen family’s ancestor is truly a heartbreaker..."

Tang Xian’er glared at him,

"Do not slander your master like that!"

Chen Xuantian thought, oh well, and rolled his eyes, coming up with another plan, diverting the trouble,

"No, Tang Sect Master, we are all cultivation people, practitioners of Qi cultivation, you understand, can the relationship between master and disciple be taken so lightly?

Did you see the sword on my back? To be honest, I’ve already set my mind on becoming part of the Sword Sect someday. I will definitely visit Nine Yin Mountain and apprentice under the Sword Pavilion.

Don’t tell me the Sword Ancestor is that heartless guy from your family. Anyway, this monk truly has no such fate with that person from the Chen family, forced melons aren’t sweet."

Tang Xian’er snorted,

"Oh, is it Beichen Sword Sect of Nine Yin Mountain? I’ve vaguely heard of the grand name of Nine Heavens Xuan Nu True Inheritance Nine Luminaries Sword Pavilion Leader, Beichen Sword Sect Sect Leader, Supreme Limitless Sword Master Ruyi True Monarch.

The Xuantian Sword Ancestor is indeed a rising Heavenly Emperor Superstar in today’s Cultivation World, young people wanting to apprentice under him is understandable, but I’m not discouraging you, you might not be cut out for it."

Chen Xuantian felt speechless,

"...Is he now so famous that even a passerby can remember such a long name?"

Tang Xian’er nodded,

"The Sword Ancestor made the Sword Sect’s secret knowledge, the Beichen Sword Scripture, open-source, engraved at the foot of Nine Yin Mountain, for everyone to copy and study. Just this broad-mindedness already far surpasses the Sect Leaders of the Three Great Sects. If people can learn his true skills, can’t they remember his name? Isn’t he worthy of our loose cultivators’ admiration?"

Chen Xuantian couldn’t help but nod,

"I see, actually I think he’s just too lazy to teach, so he simplifies things... But I heard that the Mystic Sect Leader is also doing open-source cultivation techniques at Cloud Platform Peak? Now even the nine major sects are in full bloom, with public lectures becoming popular, a Hundred Schools of Thought Contention, huh?"

Tang Xian’er shook her head,

"How can that be the same? You did say the Mystic Sect’s cultivation techniques are shared at Cloud Platform Peak.

The nine major sects are branches of the same family. If not a disciple of the Righteous Path, one won’t even qualify to enter the Mystic Sect, ascend Cloud Platform, and receive the Dao transmission.

They discuss Dao behind closed doors, what’s public or not has nothing to do with us outsiders, the people of the world. How can the leaders of those mountain men even compare to the Sword Ancestor in terms of open-mindedness?"

Chen Xuantian was startled,

"Hiss, your words seem to make some sense..."
