Lord Came Back From The Battlefield

“At this point, even if I didn’t want to protect him, it might be too late!” Jericho Acevedo responded.

“A few days ago, you agreed to let Jimmy Acevedo join Sword Sect. Besides the Phantom Sword Technique, did you have any thoughts about the Nine Dragons Cauldron?” Clayton Acevedo took a sip of tea.

“Elder Clayton, you watched me grow up. Don’t you know my character by now?” Jericho Acevedo also took a sip of tea.

“I won’t deny it; my lifelong wish is to see Sword Sect stand at the pinnacle of the Great Green Star Domain!”

“Perhaps the Nine Dragons Cauldron could help me achieve that wish!”

“But I am aware that such a Sacred Object is not something Sword Sect can possess. Taking it might bring true disaster to Sword Sect!”

“It’s good that you have this understanding,” Clayton Acevedo nodded slightly and continued to ask.

“You should have seen the sword manual of the Phantom Sword Technique by now. If given three months, do you think you could comprehend it?”

“Difficult!” Jericho Acevedo responded, “Maybe in six months!”

“I heard from people around Billy Boy that he took less than two months to cultivate the Phantom Sword Technique to the Great Perfection Realm!” Clayton Acevedo said.

“And he did it without any guidance!”

“Is this true?” Jericho Acevedo raised an eyebrow.

“They had no reason to lie to me,” Clayton Acevedo responded. “Additionally, he knows a blade technique whose power is comparable to the Phantom Blade Technique!”

The Phantom Blade Technique he mentioned was a renowned skill on par with Sword Sect’s Phantom Sword Technique!

“Hmm?” Jericho Acevedo exclaimed in surprise.

Then, as if realizing something, he turned to Clayton Acevedo, “Elder Clayton, do you mean to take him to that place for a try?”

“This might be one of the few opportunities for Blade Sect and our Sword Sect, isn’t it?” Clayton Acevedo responded.

“Do you have confidence?” Jericho Acevedo’s eyes lit up.

“I can’t guarantee it, but we can give it a try!” Clayton Acevedo replied thoughtfully.

“Then it’s decided!” Jericho Acevedo nodded.

The next morning, Clayton Acevedo led Billy and his group towards Blade Sect.

“Elder Clayton, why are you taking us to Blade Sect?” On the way, Stout asked Clayton Acevedo.

“Are you planning to use someone else’s hand to kill? Throwing this hot potato to Blade Sect and letting Yheng Institute deal with them?”

Everyone: Stout, your thought process is really unique.

“Do you think the people of Blade Sect are fools?” Clayton Acevedo’s mouth twitched slightly. “If even you can think of that, don’t you think they can too?”NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

“Hehe, that’s true!” Stout grinned.

“Elder Clayton, is there something special about taking us to Blade Sect?” Harleen asked Clayton Acevedo.

“A thousand years ago, do you know which force was the overlord in this four-tier star domain?” Clayton Acevedo asked in return.

“Wasn’t it Yheng Institute?” Felicia asked.

“Of course not!” Clayton Acevedo shook his head. “At that time, Yheng Institute was always in second place!”

“Elder Clayton, was it Blade and Sword Sect?” Harleen said.

“Yes!” Clayton Acevedo nodded.

“A thousand years ago, Blade and Sword Sect’s strength was far beyond what Yheng Institute is today. Even the Grand Elder of Blade and Sword Sect could crush anyone from Yheng Institute!”

“Then why did it develop into the current situation?” Azure Dragon asked. “And why did Blade and Sword Sect later have internal strife and eventually split?”

“This is related to the last Sect Master of Blade and Sword Sect!” Clayton Acevedo’s thoughts drifted, and after a brief pause, he began to tell the story.

After ten minutes of listening to his description, Billy and his group understood the gist of it.

The last Sect Master of Blade and Sword Sect was a highly talented individual. Under his leadership, Blade and Sword Sect reached unprecedented heights in overall strength.

On the other hand, he was also extremely ambitious!

He was not content with Blade and Sword Sect being confined to this four-tier star domain; he set his sights on five-tier and even six-tier star domains!

In his tenth year as Sect Master, he left the Great Green Star Domain with the ten strongest elders of Blade and Sword Sect to pursue his dream in a five-tier star domain.

However, once he left this star domain, he realized he had overestimated himself!

In less than half a year, he returned with injuries, while the ten elders who had followed him were buried in foreign lands.

Blade and Sword Sect’s overall strength plummeted to the same level as Yheng Institute at that time.

This incident dealt a severe blow to him!

Shortly after returning, he passed on the position of Sect Master and secluded himself in a forbidden area of Blade and Sword Sect.

Moreover, besides the Phantom Sword Technique and Phantom Blade Technique, he took all other supreme skills into the forbidden area with him.

Because the Phantom Sword Technique and Phantom Blade Technique were too profound and required extremely high standards from practitioners, very few could comprehend them.

This was one of the main reasons why Blade and Sword Sect was later surpassed by Yheng Institute. Under these circumstances, internal divisions began within Blade and Sword Sect, eventually splitting into two sects.

“Elder Clayton, why did that Sect Master take other supreme skills into the forbidden area?” Ian Blade asked Clayton Acevedo.

“To learn from his pain!” Clayton Acevedo responded thoughtfully.

“He didn’t want future generations of Blade and Sword Sect to repeat his mistakes. So he set up an array in that forbidden area!”

“And informed the sect members that if one day a disciple could cultivate both the Phantom Sword Technique and Phantom Blade Technique to the Great Perfection Realm, they could challenge the forbidden area.”

“If any disciple could pass through that array, they could bring out the supreme skills inside.”

“If no disciple could achieve this, then let Blade and Sword Sect remain a second-rate sect without being blinded by ambition!”

“What kind of logic is that? Your Sect Master was really an oddball!” Stout smacked his lips.

“Elder Clayton, do you want Billy to challenge that forbidden area?” Ivy asked.

“Indeed, I have that intention!” Clayton Acevedo smiled and responded.

“Elder Clayton, Yheng Institute might soon make a comeback!” Harleen said after some thought.

“At this time, besides those supreme skills in the forbidden area of Blade and Sword Sect, do you have any other purposes for sending Billy there?”

Others also thought about this question. If there were no other purposes, going to the forbidden area now would be useless.

“I’m not entirely sure; we can only try!” Clayton Acevedo nodded slightly.

“The dean of Yheng Institute has already broken through to the eighth-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm. If he brings people here, we won’t be able to stop them!”

“Eighth-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm? That’s so exaggerated?” Everyone was stunned simultaneously.

“Yes!” Clayton Acevedo nodded in response.

“Elder Clayton, what’s the use of going to that forbidden area?” Judge asked.

“Even if Boss learns those supreme skills on-site, it’s too late!”

“Moreover, Boss already knows one of your sect’s strongest skills but still can’t be an opponent for someone at the eighth-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm!”
