Chapter 91 – Regret! (1/2)

A wisp of excitement flashed in Lin Shan’s eyes as he gazed at that imposing aura on Yang Ye that hadn’t dispersed completely, and he immediately smiled and nodded before he said, “Not bad, not bad. All those old geezers and I were wondering why your Profound Energy would be so pure while you’re clearly only at the Mortal Realm. Because it’s impossible for even golden element Profound Energy to be so pure. Now, I finally understand. So, it turns out that you’ve comprehended the Sword Intent of legend.”

Yang Ye was stunned. He glanced at Bao’er before he glanced at the old man, and then he seemed to have understood something.

When she noticed Yang Ye was staring blankly at them, Bao’er ran over and gave Yang Ye a kick before she said, “Idiot, quickly go greet your Master!”

He really is that ‘Master’ of mine? Yang Ye recovered from his shock, and then he hurriedly walked over to the old man and bowed in the way a disciple bowed to the master. After that, he said respectfully, “Yang Ye greets Master!”

If the old man didn’t appreciate his ability, then Yang Ye would naturally go where he wasn’t wanted. However, based on the gaze the old man shot at him, Yang Ye knew that the old man was probably satisfied with him. Moreover, this old man might be able to protect his younger sister, so Yang Ye who was already driven into a corner naturally moved immediately to seek refuge from the old man.

Lin Shan’s smile grew even deeper when he saw Yang Ye performing the bow of a disciple to the master. Now, their relations.h.i.+p as Master and Disciple had been truly confirmed. At the same time, he felt lucky that Yang Ye had left Rising Sun City that day and caused those old geezers to be unable to find him. Otherwise, this disciple who was a monstrous genius in both the Talisman Dao and the Sword Dao would belong to someone else.

Meanwhile, Bao’er grinned and said, “Grandpa, this disciple Bao’er got for you isn’t bad, right?”

At this moment, Bao’er was like a child that had done something important and was waiting for her seniors to praise her.

Lin Shan rubbed Bao’er’s small head and said with a smile, “Yes, you finally did something right this time. Grandpa knows what you want. Don’t worry, Grandpa will definitely reward you well.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Shan helped Yang Ye up and said, “Come, let’s return to Talisman Peak.”

Yang Ye hesitated for a moment, and then he said, “Master, the Flower Palace….”

Even though Lin Shan had already taken him to be his disciple, Yang Ye was still slightly worried. After all, the Flower Palace’s strength wasn’t inferior to the Sword Sect at all. So, he was uncertain whether this old man who’d just become his master would actually be willing to offend the Flower Palace.

Lin Shan waved his hand and said, “Don’t worry, I’m here for you!”

Yang Ye heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. No matter what, Little Yao and I are safe now.

So, he immediately didn’t hesitate to follow obediently behind Lin Shan.

Right when Yang Ye’s group of three were about to walk out of the hall, Yu Lin finally recovered from his shock. His figure flashed, and he left behind a string of afterimages as he appeared before them. Yu Lin cupped his fists to Lin Shan and said, “Master Lin, Yang Ye is a disciple of our Sword Sect….”

Lin Shan glanced at Yu Lin and ridiculed. “Is that so? I even though Yang Ye was a disciple of the Ghost Sect just now, otherwise, why would you, Yu Lin, send him to his death?”

Yu Lin was slightly embarra.s.sed. If it was anyone else that ridiculed him like this, then he would definitely answer that person by stabbing his sword at that person. However, he didn’t dare offend this old man that stood before him. Not to mention him, even the Sect Master didn’t dare offend this old man. Because the old man was someone their Martial Uncle Zui had invited to the Sword Sect.

So, he immediately smiled bitterly and said, “Master Lin, you must be joking. The Sword Sect would absolutely not send a disciple of the sect to his or her death. It was a slight misunderstanding earlier… it was just a misunderstanding….”

Lin Shan waved his hand and said, “Yu Lin, don’t give me that. Out of consideration for my disciple, I’d originally intended to sign an agreement to reside in the Sword Sect for two more years. But now, I think there no need for that at all.”

The smile on Yu Lin’s aged face grew even bitter. Others might not be aware of it, but he knew that the only reason this old man before him had come to the Sword Sect was that the old man owed their Martial Uncle Zui a favor. Otherwise, the Sword Sect was unable to invite a Talisman Master like Lin Shan to reside in the Sword Sect.

However, at this moment, he didn’t have the mood to pay any attention to this, nor did he had the mood to care about why Yang Ye had become Lin Shan’s disciple. Presently, his entire head was filled with a single thought, and it was that he couldn’t allow this young man who’d comprehended Sword Intent to leave the Sword Sect!

As he gazed at Yang Ye, a wisp of regret and a complicated expression flashed in Yu Lin’s eyes. He’d never imagined that this young man had actually comprehended Sword Intent. Sword Intent! No one in the Sword Sect has comprehended Sword Intent in a few hundreds of years!

If he knew that this young man had comprehended Sword Intent, then not to mention the Flower Palace, he wouldn’t even hesitate to offend the Origin School.

He was very clearly aware of what a young genius who’d comprehended Sword Intent represented, it represented that the Sword Sect would definitely rise in the future. It represented that the Sword Sect would possess the protection of a peerless expert that was even stronger than Martial Uncle Zui in 100 years from now. Unfortunately, his decision from just now had definitely caused this young man to have a bad impression of the Sword Sect.
