Chapter 1387: Admiration

Chapter 1387: Admiration Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Thank you, eighth elder!” Beigong Ziyu was overjoyed when she heard that.

The Eighth Elder gently stroked Beigong Ziyu’s hair with a kind expression. He then soared into the sky and activated the power of the spatial laws to disperse the people around him. He said, “This battle ends here. This matter was not something the Beigong family planned, but a result of your own greed.”

“You should remember that over these years, the Beigong Family has more than just your Hundred Sects under our command. We’re no longer the same as before. Everyone, remember to take care of yourselves and don’t do anything that will harm yourselves or your sects!”

As soon as he said that, the remaining eighty elders of the Hundred Sects were delighted. They no longer wanted to fight Ye Shitian anymore. It was too difficult!

Although they had killed seven of the eight demon guardians, they had paid a great price doing so. Moreover, there were still those three Golden Buddhas. If this battle continued, they would only be putting themselves in more danger. Taking revenge on Ye Shitian was impossible at the moment.

Since the eighth elder was giving them a way out, how could they dare to refuse?

Then, the eighth elder looked at Ye Chen and said condescendingly, “Ye Shitian! Stop!”

“Your talent is not bad, and I admire you very much!”

“By the way, Ziyu will invite you to the Soul Race’s sacrificial ceremony. Cherish this opportunity and serve the Beigong family well in the future!”

“It is the greatest fortune in your life for you to become a guardian of the Beigong family!”

“This jade token is for you. Drip your blood into the jade token. From now on, you will be a reserve elder of the Beigong family, and no one will dare to touch you!”

A jade token flew toward Ye Chen, and everyone present gasped!

A reserve elder?

This was the f*cking Beigong family that they were talking about here!

No one from a low-level martial plane had ever been qualified to obtain that position. In a sense, Ye Shitian’s status had instantly skyrocketed!

Everyone thought that Ye Shitian would be so grateful that he would even kneel down, but unexpectedly, he was frowning.

Guardian?

Although he had a good relationship with Beigong Ziyu, he did not like the eighth elder’s attitude. Furthermore, it was impossible for him to become a part of the Beigong family.

The very next moment, he extended his finger, and his rolling demonic energy swept out.

The jade token did not fall into Ye Chen’s hands, but was instead turned into pieces on the spot!

Ye Chen took a step forward, a hint of determination in his eyes.

“Eighth elder, I appreciate your kindness, but I, Ye Shitian, will never join any family or force!”

As soon as he said that, the entire world seemed to fall silent. No one had expected Ye Chen to refuse, and without hesitation too!

It was a waste of such a good opportunity!

The eighth elder was briefly taken aback. He then looked at Ye Chen, his face turning cold. “Are you rejecting me? Are you sure?”

Ye Chen stared at the Beigong family’s eighth elder fearlessly.

He had even faced a Creation realm expert before, much less a Dao Integration realm expert like the eighth elder. He was even going to fight Venerable Immortal Ling Yun in the future!

“Hmph!”

“Arrogant brat, it’s no wonder you act so fearlessly in front of the Hundred Sects!”

The eighth elder snorted coldly, but h hint of admiration gradually surfaced within his ice-cold eyes.

In the past, he had seen many geniuses. Mu Feng, who was a Semi Divine realm expert, Nian Bai, who was a Divine King realm expert, Long Taixu, who was a Primordial Chaos realm expert, and so on. All of them showed him respect due to his cultivation level and status.

However, this very same cultivation level and status was being disregarded by this fourth-level Semi Divine realm cultivator in front of him.

Not only did he dare to provoke the Hundred Sects, but he also dared to disrespect him. He was quite the character!

“Heaven’s pridefulness!”

“There are many talents and geniuses in the Lingwu Continent, and even my Beigong family has an innumerable number of them.” The eighth elder looked at Ye Chen and smiled. He spoke like an elder. “The one who survives in the end is the true genius. Only then can one dominate the world.”

“Ye Shitian, you kill too much!”

“You don’t know the severity of the situation. Although the Hundred Sects aren’t strong, and they aren’t your match,” he sighed slightly and then continued, “Your temper is not good. You have to change it. Dragons can be big or small. They can roam between the heavens and the earth, and they can also hide within muddy water. This is a real dragon. If you want to become a dragon or a phoenix, you have to learn this!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the surroundings were completely silent, and the remaining eighty elders were shocked.

The eighth elder of the Beigong family was giving Ye Shitian pointers?

Ye Shitian actually received guidance from a Dao Integration realm expert, telling him that to be a true dragon, he had to be flexible. The eighth elder was obviously optimistic and had high hopes for Ye Shitian.

Could it be that the eighth elder really wanted to suppress their Hundred Sects?

Ye Shitian slaughtered the disciples and elders of the Hundred Sects. Even if there was a reason for it, the eighth elder should at least reprimand him publicly so that they would be able to maintain their dignity. Why did he give Ye Shitian pointers publicly instead?

Ye Shitian did not only gain the favor of Beigong Ziyu, but also the Beigong Family’s elder!

“Dragons can indeed be big or small, but I don’t want to be a dragon or a phoenix!”

Ye Chen faced the eighth elder directly. His expression was calm as he said slowly, “As a cultivator, one has to aim for the top, suppress the current generation of cultivators and be invincible. A true expert doesn’t have to endure or be flexible. If an enemy comes, I just have to destroy them with my own strength!”

He paced back and forth for two steps, as if he had comprehended something. “People say that if you are too hard, you will easily break. When forging a sword or saber, it should not be too long, or else the blade will easily crack. That’s why that saying exists, but I don’t agree!”

“Oh? Tell me your opinion then.” The eighth elder’s interest was piqued.

“Long swords also break!”

“Hard swords also break!”

“However, the fact of the matter is that this is down to weaknesses in two areas. The first is the materials used to forge the sword, and the second is that the weakest part of the sword is its core. Only by addressing these two weaknesses can a true peerless sword be forged!”

Ye Chen released a powerful aura and continued, “As long as the materials used to forge the sword are excellent and the core is properly designed and reinforced, it will be indestructible. What is holding a sword back are these two things, and the insufficient ability of the one forging it!”
