Chapter 383 - 237: The Organization’s Decision—You Are Assigned to Go Undercover (Part 3)
Chen Xing, if you lack the courage, let me, the Sect Leader, handle it!"
He gave the precious medicine, imparted the Cultivation Technique.
Just a final push is needed, to accept a disciple and grant the title of Daoist.
How could it benefit the Meridian Sword Sect!
"You see, you’re anxious again.
How come a dignified White Sun Sect Leader has no perseverance."
Chen Xing said leisurely:
"Ah Qi entering the sights of the Meridian Sword Sect is not entirely a bad thing.
The old scoundrel Yan Xin and his disciple Kou Qiuyue calculated against us back then.
They were just a half-step away from obtaining that Immortal Sword.
We took one Primordial Mansion Immortal Key; how could he have gained nothing?
The old scoundrel Yan Xin has been in seclusion for ten years, letting the junior Zhao Pijiang sit on him as if he were nothing.
With his temperament, do you think he’s mostly nurturing wounds, or more likely biding his time, awaiting opportunity, and plotting to claim the Fallen Immortal Mansion again?"
Chen Yin was silent for a while:
"Chen Xing, you often say my Sect Leader pursues only the grand path and lacks human sentiments.
Compared to you, I distinctly have more emotions and desires.
Such a satisfying disciple and grandchild for you, yet you plan to let him enter the Meridian Sword Sect as an undercover for the White Sun Sect.
But have you ever considered, facing a Divine Power Giant, no matter how smart your grandson is, he can’t play any tricks."
Chen Xing sneered:
"Bah! With thoughts like these, you insist on throwing dirt on me! Even if Yan Xin kowtows to me three times, I would never hand Ah Qi over to the Meridian Sword Sect!
What I mean is, you and I together, will turn Ah Qi into a rare Sword Dao prodigy, to bait the Meridian Sword Sect..."
Chen Yin interrupted:
"How is that different from what I said as Sect Leader?"
Chen Xing’s eyes flickered:
"There’s a vast difference. Ah Qi’s aptitude, like sand buried in gemstones, is revealed when the wind blows.
He can’t hide it, nor does he have a way to hide it, understand? Today it’s Master Xuanji, tomorrow it’s Chunyu Cultivator, and the day after, who knows.
Dragon Court, Upper Sect, Taoist Sect, and even the sects of lesser paths, which one doesn’t favor promising talents?
For talents of the upper middle class, they enter the Mountain Gate, learn Sword Dao; for top-tier talents, they become true heirs, practice Divine Techniques; but for unparalleled talents, do you think Yan Xin can remain calm?
He will undoubtedly cultivate him as he did with Kou Qiuyue, helping him progress swiftly, directly into Divine Techniques, and thereafter silently pass through the trials of Fallen Immortal Mansion to become the Master of Immortal Swords!"
Chen Yin seemed to ponder the idea:
"You’re saying we use the Meridian Sword Sect as camouflage, allowing your grandson to avoid becoming the target of others, and conveniently entrap the old scoundrel Yan Xin.
If Bai Qilang becomes a second Kou Qiuyue... your plan is too simplistic; Kou Qiuyue possessed the unmatched demeanor of a Daoist, ranking top-five in Red County Divine Land for thousands of years.
How could your grandson measure up?"
Yet Chen Xing simply chuckled:
"Meridian Sword Sect and the Five Directions Emperor Palace, one claims ’Sword at Meridian’, the other proclaims ’Dao emerges at Five Directions’.
Yan Xin once boasted that before him, no one’s swordsmanship surpassed his; after him, all sword intents are not worth mentioning.
But he was being narrow-minded; there is still a sword in this world that can make the Sword Sect lower its head."
Chen Yin’s Divine Soul flickered:
"Are you saying?"
Chen Xing nodded:
"It destroyed your physical body, gravely injured my foundation, and severed Chen Du’s Immortal Sword.
Its Sword Qi has been rooted in my body for ten years.
If Ah Qi can comprehend even half of it, he would become the next Kou Daozi."
Chen Yin realized, and then seemed to await a spectacle:
"Chen Xing, no matter how eloquent you are, can you overcome the barrier set by your disciple Ninghai Zen?
You dream of Ninghai Zen agreeing to have his disciple used as bait; it’s nonsense!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Xing sighed, rubbed his old face, and stood up:
"No matter how cold-hearted the unruly disciple is, he wouldn’t go so far as to kill me with his own hands."
