Chapter 516 I Won’t Cause Trouble. I Promise!

To grow vegetables!

Ye Xuan really began to grow vegetables!

Excited!

At the moment, Ye Xuan was very excited because he finally knew his shortcomings!

Strength!

Speed!

He indeed had reached his current limit in these two aspects!

However, as the old man said, he had just got familiar with Artistic Conception!

On the other side, the old man looked at Ye Xuan and was somewhat shocked.

Ye Xuan’s strength was a little beyond his expectation!

Especially by using illusions and flying swords, he could almost sec-kill people in Creation Realm!

If he sneaked up on people with them, the result would be better!

He was quite promising!

The old man nodded in his heart. The only thing that he was dissatisfied with Ye Xuan was his temperament. He was too fiery and forthright and somewhat sly.

It was not bad for his Tao of the Sword, but it might be a bad thing for their Sword Clan!

Troublemaker!

The moment he saw Ye Xuan, he knew that Ye Xuan was definitely a troublemaker!

At this time, Ye Xuan who was in the near distance, suddenly said, “Senior, I’ve got a question!”

The old man looked at Ye Xuan, “What’s it?”

Ye Xuan said seriously, “Just now, you took a step back!”

The old man, “...”

When Ye Xuan was about to continue, the old man suddenly said, “Huh? You’ve got a problem with that? Fine, let’s continue our fight to the death!”

Ye Xuan was stunned. The old man was so shameless!

“Haha...”

At this time, in the Prison World Tower, the imperial dog suddenly laughed, “Finally, there is someone who is more shameless than you!”

Ye Xuan, “...”

The old man walked up to Ye Xuan and said, “Do you have any other questions?”

Ye Xuan quickly shook his head, “No, no!”

The old man snorted coldly, “Grow the vegetables quickly!”

Ye Xuan asked, “Will you teach me after I grow these vegetables?”

The old man said angrily, “Stop talking nonsense! Get your work done!”

Ye Xuan quickly nodded, “OK!”

Saying that, he seemed to think of something but hesitate to speak.

The old man frowned slightly, “What?”

Ye Xuan sighed in a low voice, “To tell you the truth. The real reason why I wanted to leave the Sword Clan before is that I have some enemies who coveted my treasure before I came here... I’m worried that I’ll implicate the Sword Clan!”

“Enemies?”

The old man looked Ye Xuan up and down, “It’s normal that you have enemies, but you can’t even get rid of them?”

Ye Xuan shook his head, “No, I can’t. There are so many of them. I can’t defeat them!”

The old man said coldly, “Don’t worry. Now you are in our Sword Clan and around me. No matter who your enemies are, I will handle them for you!”

Ye Xuan sighed again, “But my enemies are very powerful. You...”

The old man said angrily, “I said I would deal with them for you. Why are you blathering about it like a woman?”

Ye Xuan hurriedly said, “OK. Since you’ve said that, I’ll trust you!”

With that, he began to grow those vegetables!

Unexpectedly, he was very good at growing vegetables, because he did all kinds of work when he was a child in the Ye Family.

The old man looked at Ye Xuan and said, “Our Sword Clan is never afraid of anyone in Celestial Region. If your enemies are sensible, they would never come to Divine Martial City. If they come, I’ll kill them with one hand!”

Ye Xuan hurriedly said, “Yes, you can kill them easily...”

The old man said, “Grow these vegetables quickly. I’m going out.”

After that, he turned and left.

After the old man left, Ye Xuan sat on the ground, “Bro, how strong is that old man?”

After a moment of silence, the imperial dog whispered, “His strength is unfathomable!”

His strength was unfathomable!

Ye Xuan nodded slightly. The old man could catch his flying sword with his fingers. His strength was terrifying!

Ye Xuan looked around and had to admit that the Sword Clan was indeed full of unnoticed strong men!

As if thinking of something, Ye Xuan gradually looked grave.

Star master!

The man who was behind the war against Weiyang Star Region would certainly not let him go.

Some of those people who came to hunt him down this time must be sent by the star master.

He had to become stronger!

This time, he didn’t want to be passive again.

Just then, the old man who left earlier came back.

He bent his finger slightly and clicked. A token landed in front of Ye Xuan, “From now on, you will officially be the disciple of our Sword Clan.”

Ye Xuan, “...”

The old man sat on a wooden stool in front of Ye Xuan, “Disciples of our Sword Clan can compete with each other, but only benign competition is allowed. With enough strength, you can even be the suzerain.”

While speaking, he looked at Ye Xuan, “Remember, if a clan is not united, it will soon perish. You are now a disciple of our Sword Clan and have the responsibility to maintain the unity of our Sword Clan, understand?”

Ye Xuan shook his head, “As long as others don’t mess with me, I promise not to cause trouble. But if someone wants to kill me or play tricks on me, I will kill him.”

The old man looked at Ye Xuan who was calm and not scared at all.

Would Ye Xuan repay injury with kindness?

No!

He liked to return good for good and repay injury with injury!

The old man shook his head, “You have a violent temper, which is not good for you.”

Ye Xuan kept silent.

The old man continued, “Besides, your swords have a fatal flaw!”

Ye Xuan said, “Please enlighten me!”

The old man said, “Paying attention to swords’ speed and power is important. You do that very well among the young generation of our Sword Clan. However, swords’ speed and power are not the only things important. Your swords’ current speed and power are ‘Formality Style’!”

“Formality Style?”

Ye Xuan frowned slightly, “What does that mean?”

The old man said, “Above Creation Realm, it is Tao Realm. Strong men in Tao Realm need to understand Tao, but I can’t explain ‘Tao’ to you very clearly.”

While speaking, he gave a slight pause and continued, “In today’s Star Region, the strong men are divided into three types, the first type is ‘Consciousness Style’, the second type is ‘Realm Style’, and the third type is ‘Super Formality Style’.”

Ye Xuan asked, “Super Formality Style? What does that mean?”

The old man looked at Ye Xuan, “You are Formality Style now, because you pay attention to strength and speed, but your swords’ strength and speed have only reached your own limit, not the limit of the heaven and the earth.”

Ye Xuan said in a deep voice, “That means the speed of my swords can be faster, right?”

The old man nodded, “But it’s very difficult to make it faster.”

Ye Xuan respectfully bowed, “Please teach me to do that!”

The old man kept silent for a moment and then said, “Do you want to specialize in Super Formality Style?”

Ye Xuan shook his head, “I also want to learn Consciousness Style!”

The old man looked at Ye Xuan, “You are quite ambitious! However, you have to be. If you only specialize in Formality Style, you will suffer when you encounter people of Consciousness Style!”

Ye Xuan asked, “Senior, which of the three styles is strongest?”

The old man shook his head, “It depends on the cultivators. Come on, I’ll take you to an old guy.”

After that, he got up. As if thinking of something, he looked straight at Ye Xuan, “Kid, I don’t know your character and temper. However, I think you are promising and worth being cultivated, but I don’t want to cultivate a scourge for our Sword Clan.”

After being silent for a moment, Ye Xuan said with a smile, “Senior, I’ve killed many people, but I never take the initiative to kill anyone without reason! I certainly know what you are worried about. How about this? I promise I will never compete for being the suzerain of the Sword Clan.”

The old man said angrily, “You have enough strength. Why don’t you do that? You want to see those morons be the suzerain?”

Ye Xuan, “...”

The old man sighed in a low voice, “Kid, I don’t want to be nagging. But most of the time, a clan often perishes because of internal trouble. You have a great talent. If you cause trouble in our Sword Clan in the future...”

Ye Xuan said with a smile, “Senior, I won’t cause trouble. I promise!”

The old man shook his head, “The more you are sure about that, the more flustered I become!”

Ye Xuan, “...”

The old man said, “Let’s go! I’ll take you to see a real expert of Super Formality Style!”

After that, he turned around and disappeared directly in the near distance.

Ye Xuan hurriedly kept up with him.

On the way, the imperial dog in the Prison World Tower suddenly said, “Bro, you will definitely make trouble!”

Ye Xuan was speechless, “Bro, what do you mean!”

The imperial dog said, “Come on, think about it. Trouble always followed you, didn’t it?”

Ye Xuan, “...”

After a while, the old man and Ye Xuan arrived at a blacksmith shop in Divine Martial City.

In front of the blacksmith shop, a sturdy and tall man was hammering the weapon in his hand madly.

Seeing the old man, the sturdy and tall man sneered, “Gee, what brings you here!”

The old man walked up to the blacksmith’s shop, and then looked at Ye Xuan, “I’m here to introduce a disciple to you!”

Ye Xuan was stunned, and then quickly bowed to the sturdy and tall man, “I’m Ye Xuan, nice to meet you, Master!”

Hearing this, the sturdy and tall man was dumbfounded...

At this time, the old man said, “Blacksmith Chen, I’m doing you a big favor. This time I met a promising young man, so I specially brought him to you. He’s really a genius. Such a genius might appear only once in ten thousand years!”

Ye Xuan, “...”

Blacksmith Chen glanced at the old man, “Old madman, when did you become so thick-skinned?”

The old man said in a low voice, “Chen, I know you will leave here soon. Don’t you want to leave what you have learned in your life here?”

Blacksmith Chen shook his head, “No.”

Then he continued hammering on his anvil.

The old man said coldly, “Let’s get out of here!”

After that, he turned around and left.

Ye Xuan hesitated and hurriedly followed.

Just then, the old man stopped. He turned and looked at Blacksmith Chen, “Beat him up!”

Ye Xuan was stunned.

The old man looked at Ye Xuan, “Beat him up! Don’t show any mercy!”

Ye Xuan didn’t hesitate. He looked back at Blacksmith Chen. The next moment, two flying swords suddenly appeared in front of Blacksmith Chen. However, they disappeared silently as soon as they reached the blacksmith.

At the same time, Ye Xuan’s expression changed greatly. He drew out his sword and hacked down.

Hiss!

The sword hacked down and hit nothing!

In the distance, the blacksmith had a wisp of hair in his hand!

He took a look at Ye Xuan, loosened his grip, and the hair fell slowly.

Ye Xuan kept silent

At this time, the blacksmith’s expression suddenly changed but he didn’t make a move. The space around him suddenly collapsed, but it returned to normal in an instant.

At this time, a sword stopped at the place a few inches away from the blacksmith’s glabella.

It couldn’t move half an inch forward!

Because the blacksmith caught Ye Xuan’s sword with his fingers!

At this moment, the blacksmith took a serious look at Ye Xuan, “You combined illusions with Tao of the sword...”

While speaking, he shook his head, “I won’t take you as my disciple, because I’ve met someone better than you!”

With that, he turned around and continued hammering on his anvil.

The old man gave Ye Xuan a wink, but Ye Xuan shook his head and smiled, “Senior, let’s go!”

The old man looked at Ye Xuan who said with a smile, “I want to be stronger, but I will never beg others to help me with that.”

Then he glanced at the blacksmith in the near distance, “A year later, I will never be worse than anyone!”
