I Have Countless Legendary Swords! Chapter 222 - The Great Battle Began

Chapter 222: The Great Battle Began

“Of course, no one can see through my potential!”
Zhou Xuanji, whose eyes were closed, snorted softly with a proud face.
“Look carefully, I will dominate every World Millennium Duel from now one. No one can threaten my throne until I ascend!”
If those who knew him well had heard him, they would have seen that he was bluffing out of excitement.
Xian Xianghua’s eyes brightened with color as she showed her love and expectation. “If you ascend, will you bring me along?” She asked with a smile.
Zhou Xuanji glanced at her and said, “Be my sword slave, and I will bring you to ascension. Then, we shall adventure across the celestial world and live a carefree and long life.”
Having heard that, she leaned forward and said coquettishly, “My little husband, I want to be your wife. How can I be your sword slave…”
Her voice and tone gave Zhou Xuanji goosebumps all over his body.
This old demonic woman was really powerful, indeed.
She mastered all kinds of emotions; she was able to be dominating, charming, gentle, indifferent, and so on.
“Aren’t you very arrogant just now?” He snorted.
Just when he finished speaking, Xian Xianghua’s hand grabbed his face. Her expression turned cold in an instant and she said coldly, “You are the arrogant one. Go ahead and talk to the others, and see if I have ever been gentle before. Even I, as a proud person, used my own cultivation to help you. No one would even believe this.”
Zhou Xuanji was a little shocked and frowned.
“You transferred your cultivation to me? Then, what will happen to you?”
He asked sincerely. A wave of emotion rose in his heart.
Xian Xianghua got up and looked down at him. “It’s not a big deal to share some cultivation with you. I’m at such a high stage. Is it something you can understand?”
“Cultivate well. A few more days and I will teach you the…”
After that, she disappeared into thin air. She most likely went to deal with Tanhua Sect’s matters.
For Zhou Xuanji, she did not leave for a whole month. Who knew if Tanhua Sect was in some trouble?
He was in a dazzle, and he sighed, “Damn, I really can’t get rid of her now.”
He owed her such a significant debt; how could he just ignore it?
After the thought, he continued to cultivate.
His next target was to reach the Spirit Refinement stage.
The earlier he reached the Spirit Refinement, the earlier he could deal with Ta Tianchen, the Evil Lord, and the Huangquan Twin Devils.
Oh.
Yeah.
How was the Thousand-hand Devil Qin Gang now?
He did not overthink it. Even Xian Xianghua did not care, so why should he have cared?
There was no point in worrying about him!
…
On the same day, all of a sudden, Jiang Xue walked slowly into the palace. She appeared to be very careful.
But when she saw Zhou Xuanji, she was surprised and ran over immediately.
“What brings you here?” Zhou Xuanji opened his eyes and asked curiously.
Jiang Xue squatted down beside the spirit pool and pouted, “Xian Xianghua thinks that I’m too weak and asked me to come to cultivate with you, saying that the spiritual Qi here is abundant.”
Zhou Xuanji raised his brow and asked, “She’s really that understanding?”
As he spoke, he waved at her to get her down.
She walked into the pool immediately and reached him quickly.
“I realized that she’s really good to you. But I’m very curious. She’s already over 10,000 years old, so how could she be interested in you?”
Jiang Xue leaned close to Zhou Xuanji and asked softly.
She was purely curious and meant nothing else. Beixiao Wangjian, Han Shenbo, and the others were curious too.
Even if Zhou Xuanji had extraordinary talent, Xian Xianghua used to be the top cultivator and could totally loop him in by making him her disciple.
The difference in age between the two was so wide apart after all.
Zhou Xuanji sighed, “It might be because of her childhood and the stories I told.”
Jiang Xue inquired further out of curiosity.
Then, Zhou Xuanji told her about Xian Xianghua’s childhood, which made her eyes red with tears.
Especially when she heard that Xian Xianghua killed the Ancient Diablo personally and those words that her father said, Jiang Xue cried.
She had no parents since she was young, so she knew the loneliness and desire of being an orphan.
“I’m so fortunate to have you.”
Jiang Xue hooked her arms over his and said softly.
Zhou Xuanji rolled her eyes and said, “If it wasn’t for you, I might have already drowned or been devoured by some beast.”
The two looked at each other with a smile, and both felt sweetness in their hearts.
At this moment, Jiang Xue opened her eyes wide and cried out, “I understand! She must have seen her own shadow in me, thinking about what would happen if she had you when she was young.”
Seeing the look of pride on her face, Zhou Xuanji pinched her face.
The two chatted as they began to cultivate.
When Jiang Xue knew that Xian Xianghua used her cultivation to help Zhou Xuanji, she was inspired. She declared that she would work hard on her cultivation to transfer all of it to Zhou Xuanji.
Zhou Xuanji shook his head with a smile. The more this girl wanted to sacrifice for him, the more heartache he felt for her.
He understood how much pressure she felt.
However, such pressure could not be talked away.
He could only try his best to help her grow more powerful.
In the next month, Xian Xianghua did not return.
The whole palace had a restrictive spell array that prevented anyone from hearing the noises outside.
Zhou Xuanji did not care but cultivated peacefully.
Jiang Xue’s cultivation improved quickly as well, but not as quick as his.
“Xuanji, shall we take a look outside?”
Jiang Xue asked worriedly. The overwhelming peace gave her anxiety.
Zhou Xuanji said without opening his eyes, “Don’t worry. Even if the sky falls, that old demonic woman will hold it up.”
If Xian Xianghua would die so easily, she would already be dead at Duantian Cliff.
Jiang Xue was still a little worried. Ever since she heard about Xian Xianghua’s past, she empathized with her.
“Focus on your cultivation, and don’t overthink. If she could die so easily, she would have died a long time ago.”
Zhou Xuanji comforted her, and Jiang Xue could only be persuaded.
Boooom!
At this moment, an earth-shaking sound explosion erupted. The entire palace shook violently as countless rocks and grains of sand fell down. The two of them were frightened and immediately got up.
“Oh no, I’m a jinx!”
Jiang Xue said anxiously. She stood up first.
Zhou Xuanji got up as well, and both of them walked out of the palace.
At the same time, above the Fallen Immortal Heavenly Lake, the Four Legendary Generals were levitating in mid-air. A golden radiance glowed from their bodies, which looked so blinding, and even the heavy snow could not cover it.
Countless cultivators stood on the mountains that surrounded the Heavenly Lake. Even Xuanhe Divine Monk, the Evil Lord, and Huang Hantian were among them.
“Let’s work together to break open the Heavenly Lake!”
General Chen spoke. The other generals agreed and raised their spears together.
The Four Legendary Generals thrust their spears downward in unison.
Four horrifying spear Qi swooped down unstoppably.
However, a wave of demonic Qi oozed from the icy surface and turned into a giant hand that blocked all the spear Qi.
“You bunch of ants dare to damage the Heavenly Lake? I will once again let you taste the fear you had back then!”
Xian Xianghua’s wild laughter resounded across the frosty world.
Everyone was nervous.
Back then, they had been enveloped by such a burst of laughter. Even Xuanhe Divine Monk’s expression appeared a little disturbed.
All the demonic cultivators had already gathered beneath the ground.
The three Demon Chiefs stood together with grave looks on their faces. The Tanhua Sect elders stood at the front in neat rows.
