C428 You're Finally Here
However, Xia Ling naturally wouldn't deny this question, so he honestly replied, "I am."
Hearing this answer, One Origin Sect Sect Leader and Lee Mann's eyes did not relax at all and continued: "I hope that you can prove it."
Xia Ling showed indifference on his face: "Sorry, I will never prove anything for others."
The atmosphere suddenly became somewhat tense. On the other hand, the two young cultivators that followed Lee Mann had no idea what to do. He didn't understand why these two people were suddenly at odds with each other.
They were even thinking if the two of them were to start fighting...
Of course, they weren't worried about the outcome of the battle. It was definitely their own Sect Leader who had great skill and could easily crush this kid. However, if two peak Terminator Realm cultivators were to fight in such a small area, they would probably be left without a single blade of grass. The two of them would be in for a lot of trouble, and the aftermath of the attack would probably tear them apart to the point where not even their dregs would remain.
However, the atmosphere seemed to have calmed down a little at this time.
Lee Mann said gently, "Alright! Such a reply, with such a personality, I think only Lord Sword Emperor can answer. "
Wait, Lord Sect Leader, what is he talking about?
At the beginning, when Sword Emperor was mentioned, the two young cultivators didn't pay much attention to him.
It was just that the pronunciation of the word Sword Emperor was enough. Who knew which two words he was actually referring to. Who could be able to connect the dots so quickly with the six powerful cultivators that had once stood at the level of emperors?
However, if there was an adult following Sword Emperor, it would be different...
The two young cultivators looked at Sect Leader with a gaze that could be called fear, but there was no trace of joking on his face.
Of course, Lee Mann had an honorable status in the cultivation world. How could she joke about such matters?
Could it be true? This brat was actually … Cultivators of the Great Emperor Realm?!
Just the thought of this nearly caused the two young cultivators to fall from the sky.
Xia Ling didn't care about the two young cultivators as his gaze was still focused on the elder.
Lee Mann didn't answer right away. He only smiled and bowed slightly as he said to Xia Ling, "This is not a good place to talk about this. Lord Sword Emperor, why don't you come with me to the city?"
"This old man has been looking forward to seeing you for quite some time."
Since the other party had already said so, Xia Ling also smiled lightly and agreed: "Okay, then we'll go with you."
He had originally wanted to have a good talk with the emissary from the One Origin Sect, and now that the other party had come knocking on his door with such ease, it would be for the best.
The two young cultivators were also full of questions, but they had unconsciously become full of respect for Xia Ling.
The group of people quickly entered One Origin Sect's gate. Xia Ling realized that his arrival this time around did not alarm the entire One Origin Sect.
The One Origin Sect was still operating quietly according to their daily routine, it was just that their Sect Leader had stood out to greet them.
This was somewhat strange. How could it be that Sect Leader had already come up? The entire sect was still not moving.
What was this peak Terminator cultivator, Lee Mann, thinking?
Xia Ling pondered.
Lee Mann didn't seem to care what was on Xia Ling's mind as she continued to smile. He led Xia Ling into his study room and waved his hands to allow his two disciples to leave.
"Please take a seat, Lord Sword Emperor."
Without any hesitation, Xia Ling sat down and asked straightforwardly, "I wonder what Sect Leader wants to welcome you personally?"
Lee Mann still had a smile on her face, as if Xia Ling's direct question wasn't a surprise to her.2
He said very calmly: "Because from the moment I took over the position of One Origin Sect, Sect Leader, I have been waiting for your arrival."
What?
Xia Ling didn't seem to hear him clearly at all. What did Lee Mann mean by this? It seemed to contain a lot of information.
… …. He meant. Did he already know I would come?
Lee Mann seemed to have clearly seen Xia Ling's doubt, so she took the initiative to explain, "I already knew that you would come, Lord Sword Emperor. But I don't know when, and I don't know if this old man will be lucky enough to meet you …"
"This is actually every One Origin Sect mission, and that is to wait for Lord Sword Emperor's return!"
"What?" Xia Ling revealed an expression of obvious surprise and even said it out loud. This was something that was extremely rare to see in him.
Because this was indeed something surprising, One Origin Sect Sect Leader's mission was actually to wait for his return?!
It was at this moment that Lee Mann added another sentence, "Actually, not only is Lord Sword Emperor like this, the entire One Origin Sect was created to serve Lord Sword Emperor."
This news was too shocking, even Xia Ling couldn't accept it immediately. He took a deep breath and said: "Explain in detail."
Lee Mann, who was sitting opposite of him, slightly bowed and said, "Understood, Lord Sword Emperor."
In fact, Lee Mann had been extremely shocked when she had learned of this news.
At that time, he was still not a cultivator at the peak of the Terminator Realm, but he had just entered the Tranquil Extinction Rank. However, due to his extremely high talent, he had already been selected as the best candidate to receive Sect Leader.
It was at this time that his predecessor, Sect Leader, whose body was gradually aging, told him about the long mission One Origin Sect.
Lee Mann was told that One Origin Sect was actually not some genuine primordial Super Sect inheritance. It was built thirty thousand years ago with the remnants of the Super Sect as the main body.
The reason why this Super Sect was established was because a group of powerful external enemies had invaded back then. Even the cultivators of Non-polar Period were unable to contend against them. Countless Super Sect were destroyed under this strong pressure, and the martial arts legacy was almost severed.
But the future was not without hope, because after tens of thousands of years, the last great Emperor of the world, Eternal Sword Emperor, would return from a long time. When that time comes, One Origin Sect will just have to support Sword Emperor and help him rebuild his cultivation!
Because this matter was too shocking, but it was also extremely important. Therefore, it was impossible for every cultivator within the One Origin Sect to know that the scope of understanding was limited to Sect Leader's level.
If Sword Emperor did not appear, then that would be fine. The One Origin Sect developed on its own. But if Sword Emperor really does return one day, then Sect Leader, who should be in charge, would use all of his One Origin Sect to help Sword Emperor!
Lee Mann said solemnly: "No matter what Sword Emperor wants to do, One Origin Sect will always be your solid support!"
