"I think I understand what you mean, senior. In other words, in front of that person, whether it's the strongest expert in the Chaotic Martial World or an ordinary person, they are all just ants, right?"
Ling Xiao asked.
Jian San nodded: "That's right. Our sect leader was known as the Sword Emperor, a top-three expert in the chaotic martial world. But when he faced that person, he didn't even have time to draw his sword before he fell. Poor thing, he didn't even know how he was killed until he died."
Long Muyu gasped, finding it utterly absurd.
That Sword Emperor seemed to be equivalent to the eight strongest figures in the Chaotic Martial World today. Such a terrifying existence couldn't even draw his sword in front of that person.
This wasn't even a battle; it was a one-sided, instant annihilation!
Ling Xiao also sighed, "Indeed, the difference in strength between the two is so great that it is like an ant compared to a dragon. I can even imagine the despair of the Sword Emperor at that time. He probably never dreamed that someone could be so much stronger than him."
"I suspect this person is very likely connected to the great natural disaster!"
At this point, Ling Xiao couldn't help but ask again, "Senior, who exactly is that mysterious expert? Logically speaking, he shouldn't have come to destroy the Sword Emperor Sect for no reason. Did the Sword Emperor Sect offend him before?"
Jian San shook his head: "That's the problem. Nobody knows his identity. He just appeared out of thin air, killing people without any reason. We're desperate too. When we ask him, he won't say anything, only that we deserve to die!"
"In all my years, I have never seen such a terrifying existence. It is not even a power that humans should have, or rather, it does not belong to the Chaotic Martial World. It is cold and deadly, without any emotion, like a machine."
"mechanical?"
Ling Xiao fell into deep thought, then suddenly looked up and asked, "Senior, when we entered here, we saw a line of words carved outside the door that read, 'One sword cuts through eternity, only I am called the Sword Emperor.' Who left those words? Could it be that mysterious master?"
"no!"
Jian San shook his head: "That was left by someone else. At that time, the Sword Emperor Sect had already been destroyed. I woke up here and found a black-robed expert outside, holding a long sword. He sat outside for three days and three nights. Before leaving, he left that line of words."
"Senior, you haven't seen that person before? Don't you know his name?"
"I've never seen him, and I don't know anything about him. He left after leaving those words and never came back. However, I sensed that his strength was probably close to that of the mysterious expert who destroyed my Sword Emperor Sect. He was much stronger than my former Sword Emperor Sect leader."
“That is quite interesting. From your description, he seems to be a member of the Demonic Sect, but I don’t know if he is the Demon Lord.”
"It shouldn't be the Demon Lord. As I mentioned before, the Demon Lord existed before the Sword Emperor Sect was destroyed. Although he wasn't very famous, I had seen him before. His aura was quite different from that of the man in black robes. The Demon Lord's knowledge was very diverse, while the man in black robes seemed to specialize in swordsmanship."
Jianwang 3 denied Lingxiao's speculation.
Ling Xiao sighed. There are many things in this world that cannot be answered, and it seems that he doesn't need to keep dwelling on them.
He had already asked all the questions he needed to ask, and he planned to go deep into the Sword Emperor Sect with Long Muyu. Perhaps he would get an unexpected answer.
"Senior, thank you for your explanation. We'll be leaving now."
"Wait a minute, kid, didn't anyone tell you that you're entangled in karma?"
"JX3 suddenly said."
Ling Xiao laughed: "How can there be no cause and effect in life? From the day we are born, many causes and effects will be created. It's not surprising, is it?"
"No, no, no, you are different. Your karma is too great, too numerous, entangled together, extremely complicated. I have lived for so long and seen countless people, but I have never seen anyone carry so much karma. Moreover, some of the karma is so great that I dare not delve into it."
Jian San shook his head repeatedly.
Ling Xiao frowned: "Senior knows about these things?"
"That's natural. When I was young, I was skilled in this subject and studied under a master. Now I have achieved some success. The cause and effect on you, past, present, and future, are entangled with countless threads of varying thicknesses, dense and intricate."
"Some lines have broken, becoming the past; some lines continue to extend, pointing to an unknown future. And some lines connect to powerful beings that even I cannot fathom, exuding mystery and danger!"
"Then what should this junior do?"
"The karma on your body is a double-edged sword. It may bring a glimmer of hope in desperate situations, but it may also drag you into an abyss of no return and completely destroy you. You must be extremely careful in your future actions and lest you be devoured by karma."
"JX3 reminded me."
"The senior is quite nice."
Ling Xiao smiled, but inwardly he felt a little disdainful. This old man was simply born to be a charlatan. His words seemed clever and cryptic, but upon closer inspection, he hadn't said anything at all.
A person's fate naturally includes both misfortune and good fortune, so why is he complaining and whining?
But he didn't need to expose the charlatan's words. The other party was probably saying this for some purpose, but he just didn't know it yet.
"Senior, does the Sword Emperor Sect's legacy still exist? Could it have been completely destroyed by that mysterious expert?"
Taking the opportunity, Ling Xiao changed the subject. He wasn't here to discuss metaphysics with the old man, but to obtain the inheritance of the Sword Emperor Sect and see if there was any way to improve his strength.
"No, that's not it. That powerful figure mysteriously disappeared after killing the experts of the Sword Emperor Sect. But young man, are you also after these things?"
Ling Xiao smiled and said, "Senior, what are you saying? If I didn't come here for the Sword Emperor Sect's inheritance, would I have come here for tourism? I yearn to become stronger and hope to inherit the Sword Emperor Sect's legacy so that this past glory will not be completely buried by time."
Long Muyu also said, "That's right, senior. The Sword Emperor Sect was so glorious in the past. Are you willing to let the legacy of the Sword Emperor Sect be buried like this? It needs someone to carry it forward."
"You two don't need to try to sweet-talk me. I didn't say you couldn't go in, did I? Come on, I'll take you to find the place of the inheritance."
After speaking, Jian San turned around and floated away in one direction.
Ling Xiao and Long Muyu exchanged a glance, their hearts filled with joy, and hurriedly followed.
"Be careful later. This old guy is acting a bit strange. I suspect there are secrets about the Sword Emperor Sect that we don't know about, which might be detrimental to us."
Ling Xiao sent a telepathic message to Long Muyu, reminding her to be careful.
Long Muyu nodded, deeply agreeing.
The game developer, Jianwang 3, was too cooperative and talked too much. It felt like they were trying to build a closer relationship with the players and gain their complete trust in what they said.
That's a bit unreasonable.
