Chaotic Sword God Chapter 2434 - The Authority to Distribute

Chapter 2434: The Authority to Distribute
“Sir artifact spirit has suddenly told us about these nine swords. W- w- what is the meaning of this…”
“Are you stupid? Can’t you tell? Sir artifact spirit clearly wants to find masters for these nine swords…”
“These nine swords came from the nine retainers under the master of the Tower of Radiance in the past. The swords contain the power of the nine retainers. Doesn’t that mean whoever wields them, even if they’re only a Radiant Godking, will be able to reach the level of peak experts immediately and stand at the level of the leader…”
“Heavens! To go from a Radiant Godking to a peak expert! That is literally a chance to rise up…”
…
The Radiant Godkings were all in high spirits as they discussed the matter fervently. All of them were interested.
Gongsun Zhi no longer paid any attention to Xuan Ming. His face became bright red as his breathing became extremely ragged. He raised his head and bellowed out, “Artifact spirit, your master is my ancestor. I’m his only living descendant now, so I’m the only choice for inheriting the Tower of Radiance and becoming the Tower of Radiance’s master. I want you to give all nine swords to me. I must be the one who chooses who gets the swords.”
Gongsun Zhi’s heart beat heavily. At that moment, he felt excitement at a level he had never experienced before. Once he obtained the authority to distribute the swords, the strongest protector sword would definitely go to him.
“Once I wield the greatest protector sword, the eight other people will have to follow me, and they’ll be under my command. How many people in the Saints’ World would still dare to provoke me, Gongsun Zhi? And what will the leader become before me?” As soon as he imagined such a glorious scene, Gongsun Zhi became extremely eager.
As soon as Gongsun Zhi mentioned how he wanted to distribute the protector swords, the hearts of all the Radiant Godkings in the surroundings turned cold. As if they had been doused in cold water, the greed in many of them was put out.
After all, Gongsun Zhi was the descendant of the master of the Tower of Radiance. In everyone’s eyes, Gongsun Zhi definitely had the greatest authority in the Tower of Radiance. He was the person who had the greatest influence over the artifact spirit. If he ordered the artifact spirit as the descendant of the Grand Exalt, the artifact spirit might actually have to listen to him.
After all, the miniature world that held the Grand Exalt’s legacy was the best evidence of this.
Donglin Qiushui’s face darkened. She had refused to listen to Gongsun Zhi, so her relationship with him had already taken a bad turn. If Gongsun Zhi gained the authority to distribute the nine swords, she definitely would not obtain one.
Compared to Donglin Qiushui’s dejection, the eyes of the Radiant Godkings who had decided to follow Gongsun Zhi all became ablaze. They all swore from behind Gongsun Zhi that he would be their leader in the future.
Clearly, these people all believed that Gongsun Zhi would obtain the authority to distribute the nine protector swords, which was why they wanted to be in Gongsun Zhi’s good graces. They only hoped that Gongsun Zhi would bestow a protector sword on them so that they could become a peak expert in a split second.
At the same time, nine figures flew over from the entrance of the Tower of Radiance. Their presences were mighty, and they were wrapped up in the Laws of the Hallowed. They were extremely powerful.
These nine people were the leader of the Radiant Saint Hall, Yu Chen, and the eight vice-leaders.
Not only did the artifact spirit’s voice boom through the Tower of Radiance, it also informed the people in charge of the Radiant Saint Hall about the nine protector swords.
“I never thought there were such powerful swords hidden within the Tower of Radiance!” The leader of the Radiant Saint Hall stared deeply at the nine mountains in the distance. There had never been any records regarding the existence of the nine protector swords.
“These nine protector swords really are very powerful. Just the presence they give off gives me chills. The nine retainers were Sixth Heavenly Layer Grand Primes at the very least in the past. Perhaps they were even more powerful…” said a vice-leader behind the leader sternly. His eyes also blazed with interest.
The power of the nine protector swords had greatly surpassed them. They had far surpassed the leader of the Radiant Saint Hall.
“Everyone has the opportunity to become a wielder of a protector sword. The protector swords exist for the master of the Tower of Radiance, so whoever inherits a protector sword must serve the master of the Tower of Radiance and fight for them. Now, immediately gather all Hallowed Saint Masters, regardless of strength or talent. As long as they have comprehended the Laws of the Hallowed, bring them here…” The artifact spirit’s voice rang out through the entire world.
The leader of the Radiant Saint Hall frowned. He could not help but become interested as well when he heard that everyone had the opportunity to obtain a protector sword. However, what he refused to accept was that all the people who wielded a sword would have to serve the master of the Tower of Radiance.
After all, he was a peak expert on par with Grand Primes. He had his pride. It would be difficult for him to serve someone after holding a position of dominance for so long.
He would not object to this if the master of the Tower of Radiance was a supreme expert or a Grand Exalt. However, based on the current situation, Gongsun Zhi might end up as the next master of the Tower of Radiance. We he, the mighty leader of the Radiant Saint Hall, supposed to listen to Gongsun Zhi’s commands?
Aside from Xuan Zhan, who hesitated as well, the other seven vice-leaders were all eager.
“No, you’re not allowed to do this. Artifact spirit, you have to give me the authority to distribute the nine protector swords. I order you as the descendant of your master. I must be the one who distributes the protector swords.” Gongsun Zhi became flustered. What the nine protector swords protected was the second master of the Tower of Radiance. Although he was the Grand Exalt’s descendant, he still had not become the master of the Tower of Radiance, so he needed to have absolute control over the nine protector swords one way or another.
However, the artifact spirit completely ignored his cries.
After all, the artifact spirit of the Tower of Radiance was the artifact spirit who had come up from the lower world with Jian Chen!
All the protective formations of the Radiant Saint Hall had been activated outside the Tower of Radiance. The leader of the Radiant Saint Hall, Yu Chen, had passed on this information to all the elders as quickly as he could, ordering all the elders to gather the Hallowed Saint Masters in the Radiant Saint Hall and send them to the Tower of Radiance.
Yu Chen did not hide the news of the protector swords, so all the Radiant Godkings within the Tower of Radiance learnt about it. There was the artifact spirit there as well, so even if he wanted to hide it, he could not.
As a result, he directly announced the news of the protector swords in the Radiant Saint Hall. Although their appearance might threaten his grasp over the Radiant Saint Hall, the Radiant Saint Hall would also strengthen with their appearance, becoming the greatest organisation on the Desolate Plane.
He could only follow the flow with this.
The lord of the Soaring Clouds Peak, Han Xin, sat on the top of his mountain. He gazed at the clouds in the distance blankly. He seemed lonely, sorrowful, and bleak.
He was originally a member of the Han family. Although his status in the clan was nothing special, it was still his origins. However, since his newly-accepted disciple, Chang Yang, was a member of the Martial Soul lineage, the patriarch of the Han family had cut him off without any mercy at all, reducing him to a loner.
This was all because if the Han family wanted to retain their relationship with the Radiant Saint Hall, they could not afford to keep Han Xin.
