C496 The Master of the Sword Pavilion Mu Xiongcai

"Little brother, are you alright?"

"What's wrong?"

Looking at the middle-aged man that suddenly appeared behind him, Chu Hen couldn't help but be surprised. He didn't even notice that someone was approaching.

"What is it? Did I disturb you? " The middle-aged man smiled, his gentle eyes exuding a natural awe-inspiring aura.

Chu Hen shook his head and smiled apologetically.

"I'm sorry, senior. I just happened to pass by this place …"

Chu Hen knew that anyone in Tongtian Sword Pavilion would have respect and fear for the Ancestral Sword statue. Watching from underneath the statue in the middle of the night was not a polite action.

The middle-aged man waved his hand, "No worries, your name is Chu Hen, right?"

"Yes sir!" Chu Hen nodded.

"I have heard about your deeds. From the start of your Holy Star Dynasty, you have experienced so many trials and hardships at such a young age. It really makes those of us who have lived half our lives sigh in admiration."

Chu Hen shook his head with a chuckle. "Sorry, senior. May I ask which elder of the Sword Pavilion you are?"

The man laughed, "I'm just a rank 1 idle person. I came across this place by chance and was a little curious when I saw that you didn't move while you were at the bottom half of the sword ancestor's sculpture." Then, the man turned his gaze towards the sculpture before him and asked, "I wonder what happened to you just now?"

A hint of confusion flashed across Chu Hen's eyes as he replied in confusion, "I don't know, but it seems like this sculpture contains a special power."

"Oh? What kind of power is that? "

"I can't say. It's very powerful, but it's also very dangerous …"

Thinking about his mood just now, Chu Hen felt a sense of unease.

For some reason, the hatred and anger that had been building up in his heart all this while seemed to explode at once. It magnified itself infinitely, and he had the impulse to go on a rampage and kill in every direction.

The middle-aged man lightly patted Chu Hen's shoulder and smiled gently, "Maybe you are too tired! Go back and rest! "

Chu Hen nodded and did not pursue this issue any further.

"Goodbye, senior!"

"Go!"

Then, Chu Hen left the Swordpoint Square.

Watching the youth's back as he disappeared into the night, the middle-aged man had a look of admiration on his face. He had some understanding of this youth's past achievements.

For a youth from a mere empire to reach such a height in such a short period of time, it was truly a rare feat.

After which, the middle-aged man turned his gaze in another direction.

"Feng'er, come out! Stop hiding!"

There was a brief period of silence before the sound of steady footsteps could be heard. A young figure could be seen approaching.

This person was none other than Young Master, Mu Feng.

In the entire Tongtian Sword Pavilion, there was only one person who could call Mu Feng 'Feng'er', and that was Master of Sword Pavilion, Mu Xiongcai!

The meeting between father and son was not relaxed at all. The atmosphere seemed to be a little awkward.

This awkwardness originated from Mu Feng. The man in front of him who called him 'father' made him feel a bit uncomfortable.

"It's so late, are you still awake?" Mu Xiongcai said.

"None of your business?" Mu Feng replied.

Mu Xiongcai frowned slightly, "Can't you treat me better when you speak?"

"What's wrong? Do you still want to break three of my ribs with a single kick? Come, come, come. You'd better kill me with a single kick to save you the trouble of watching."

Mu Feng spread out his posture and pointed at his chest.

Mu Xiongcai let out a sigh of relief. A hint of guilt appeared in his eyes.

Now that he thought about it, his attack back then was indeed a bit too heavy.

"Laozi is going back to sleep, do as you want," Mu Feng replied lazily and turned to leave.

"Wait a minute!"

"What now?"

Mu Xiongcai thought for a moment, and then said: "There are some things I wanted to tell you after the 'Grand Meeting of Sword Ceremony' ends. Since you're here now, then I'll tell you!"

Hearing that there was something wrong with his tone, Mu Feng stopped and turned around.

"Tell me quickly, I'm in a hurry!"

Mu Xiongcai pointed at the statue on the side, "Do you know who this is?"

"Aren't you talking nonsense? Even a fool would know that the founder of the Sword Pavilion was a fool. "

If it was in the past, if Mu Feng spoke to Mu Xiongcai with this tone, he would probably be kicked more than ten meters away after he opened his mouth.

However, after Mu Feng returned from the Holy Star Dynasty, Mu Xiongcai's attitude gradually changed.

Even though Mu Feng spoke irregularly, the other party was not angry at all.

"That's right, he single-handedly created the Tongtian Sword Pavilion." Mu Xiongcai affirmed and added, "And besides that, he is also the ancestor of our Mu family."

"Oh?"

Mu Feng was stunned and subconsciously blurted out, "So, you are his great-great-grandson?"

Mu Xiongcai's face darkened, these words sounded like he was scolding someone.

"But what does that have to do with me? Didn't he die eight or nine hundred years ago? "

"Do you know the title of our ancestors?"

"What title?"

"Sword Devil!" Mu Xiongcai spat out two words clearly and heavily. His eyes revealed a faint burning light.

"Sword Devil?" Mu Feng pecked his head and said, "It sounds quite frightening."

"Speaking of the rise of our Tongtian Sword Pavilion, there was even a special period of time at the very beginning. Our ancestors were just a nameless nobody with no family background, and they only had quite a bit of talent in sword arts. However, the vast world had never lacked geniuses. It was just a single sword technique, and it was far from being able to make him shine. In order to break through a higher level in terms of Martial Arts, my ancestor accidentally entered a secret realm called the 'Ancient Burial Ground of Heaven' during an adventure.

Ancient Burial Ground?

Mu Feng's eyes lit up and his interest was piqued.2

Mu Xiongcai paused for a moment before continuing, "I am unable to figure out just what kind of place the Ancient Burial Ground is. However, my ancestor unexpectedly had an acquired mutation in that domain, and from an ordinary War Body's bloodline, he became a 'Profound Body of Sword Devil'."

"This Sword Devil's physique is the most top-notch Boundary of Blood Lineage, if all of the Strength of Blood Lineage are activated, it could even compete with the body of a saint!"

Contest for the sacred body?

Did he hear wrong!?

Mu Feng's interest immediately increased, but then twitched his mouth, and said with disdain, "Don't fool me, I am 'Sword Devil Profound Body' right? I can't see how powerful it is! "

Not only Mu Feng, but Mu Xiongcai also had Sword Devil's Boundary of Blood Lineage.

Although his power was quite strong, it was far from reaching the level of competing for the holy body. Mu Feng knew this very well.

Mu Xiongcai smiled and looked at him seriously.

"That's because your 'Sword Devil's Profound Body' has yet to be activated. More accurately, you are still at the lowest level, so you still need to complete your breakthrough and level up."

Mu Feng asked doubtfully, "How?"

Mu Xiongcai looked at the sword ancestor statue beside him.

"In the past, our ancestor left a powerful Strength of Blood Lineage in this sculpture. Using this power, we can activate the real Sword Devil's Profound Body."

Mu Feng also turned his gaze towards the sculpture. His imposing manner was filled with a biting cold might.

There was another brief silence.

However, Mu Feng asked, "Why are you telling me this now?"

Although Mu Feng was usually frivolous and careless, in reality, he was a careless person.

Logically speaking, Mu Xiongcai should have told him about this long ago, but why did he drag it out for so many years?

After a moment of silence, Mu Xiongcai seemed to hesitate, then he looked back at Mu Feng and said, "I hope you can take over Master of Sword Pavilion's position."

What?

The moment he said that, Mu Feng's pupils couldn't help but constrict.

A look of disbelief appeared on his face.

He really did not expect Mu Xiongcai to let him take over Master of Sword Pavilion's position. In his eyes, wasn't he just an idiot?

This was too unexpected!

Could it be that he had discovered the truth and was trying to make up for it?

Very quickly, Mu Feng rejected this idea. He understood Mu Xiongcai's character very well, he valued Tongtian Sword Pavilion more than anyone else.

He definitely would not hand over such a huge sect's foundation to this' scarecrow son 'to manage.

"What is your purpose?"
