Chapter 234: Chapter 51 Giant Spirit Snake Armor_5
Yan Shi and Yan Li were overjoyed and quickly expressed their gratitude. Thus, Ah Dai began his tailoring work.
While Ah Dai was helping Yuan Ping trim the snake skin, the disciple brothers Xi Wen also arrived inside the stone cave.
"Greetings, master." The seven of them respectfully saluted the Tian Gang Sword Saint sitting on the rock.
The Sword Saint of the Tian Gang opened his eyes and said casually, "All rise."
The crowd stood up, and Xi Wen asked, "Master, is there something you would like to entrust to us?"
The Sword Saint of the Tian Gang sighed, "Ah Dai has been here for half a year, and I have taught him everything I could. Like a young eagle needs to continuously soar in the sky to become its ruler, in a few days, I plan to let him go down the mountain for training. Ah Dai is pure-hearted and quite talented. Moreover, he ate the Fruit of Past Life when he was young. He has all the advantages to carry on my legacy. The thriving growth of Tian Gang Sword Sect will depend on him. Xi Wen, as the Sect Leader of Tian Gang Sword Sect, I demand that you wholeheartedly support Ah Dai, especially during the Millennium Catastrophe. Don’t hold back any strength. Remember, only when the continent is peaceful and prosperous, can our Sword Sect continue to develop smoothly. All of you are my disciples, you can practice together the Life Transformation technique I’ve recently developed. It may prove useful in the future."
Listening to the words of the Tian Gang Sword Saint, Xi Wen and the other disciples exchanged glances, having a foreboding feeling in their hearts.
The Tian Gang Sword Saint smiled slightly, "You all guessed it, didn’t you? I am about to leave. Don’t be sad, this is fate and not something that human power can turn around. We all have to face our end sooner or later. It’s only when old forces fade and new forces emerge that there can be better development. Do you understand?"
The seven disciples of Xi Wen shuddered and fell to their knees, crying out in unison, "Master."
The Tian Gang Sword Saint, who was usually strict even with his own disciples, spoke in a surprisingly gentle tone today, "You all are my pride. However, you should never feel complacent due to a little success. All of you saw Xuan Ye the last time he visited. With your current skills, none of you are a match for him, and he’s much younger than any of you! So, you must relentlessly train and put more effort into nurturing the next generation. This way, our Tian Gang Sword Sect will continue to flourish. Having been tutored by me for the last six months, Ah Dai’s skills have greatly improved. I believe that his achievements in the future will not fall below mine. This might compensate for the mistakes I made with Owen. You may leave now, send Ah Dai back in. Seven days from now, I will ascend from this place. At that point, seeing me off will suffice. After all, I didn’t teach you in vain. Remember, unless Ah Dai breaks through to the ninth level of the Life Settlement, you must never reveal the news of my death. Do you understand?"
The seven disciples of Xi Wen were in tears. They had been with the Tian Gang Sword Saint for several decades. Their feelings for this old man with profound skills were a strange mix of respect and affection beyond description. For a while, the atmosphere within the cave was filled with grief.
The Tian Gang Sword Saint closed his eyes and sighed, "My children, although you’re not young anymore, in my eyes, you’re still children. Don’t be sad. As long as you continue to uphold the glory of the Tian Gang Sword Sect, that’s the best way to repay me. At my level, I no longer feel the existence of life and death. Death is just the beginning of another life. Go, go now. Send Ah Dai back in, I have some things to leave to him. Oh, right. Look." He extended his hand towards the sleeping Golden Eye Saint Xie Dragon in the corner.
