LEGEND OF THE ETERNAL FLAME WARRIOR
Episodes 277. Faithful Followers
"Zhao Lin's...." Ling Yan turned his body back. "Is he the head of the first thousand-sword sect?" Asked Ling Yan.
"Yes the head of the first sect, as well as one of the 7 warriors of heaven's destiny in the middle land world who was nicknamed the swordsman of the sword god Zhao Lin, he was also the first person to establish the thousand-sword sect." Guo Kai.
"So yes, one of the warriors of heaven's destiny, it means that he must know my Clan ancestor who is also one of the warriors of heaven's destiny." Ling Yan replied.
While Guo Kai who heard it looked a little surprised before again asked in a slightly curious tone.
"Your Clan Ancestor, what is your Clan surname?" Ask Guo Kai.
"Oh sorry for forgetting to introduce myself, my marg is Ling and my name is Yan, Ling Yan." Ling Yan replied.
Hearing Ling Yan's reply made Guo Kai open his eyes and mouth wide, because the person in front of him was currently the descendant of a heaven's most powerful destiny swordsman in the middle of the land.
And the person in question was Ling Tian the strongest heaven-defying swordsman and was often dubbed as Ling Tian's destiny-altering spirit swordsman.
"You.... You must be lying, what is the evidence that you are one of the descendants of the destiny-altering spirit swordsman?"
Guo Kai still could not believe what the boy before him said, but from the look on Ling Yan's face he saw, he could not find the lie on Ling Yan's face.
"If you don't believe me, maybe this will make you trust me completely." Ling Yan drained his profound energy and unleashed an immortal fire, besides he also took out his heirloom that was a spirit binding lamp.
Guo Kai turned back wide and after that he bowed and bowed before Ling Yan while saying.
"Hamba saluted young master Ling."
"Ehhh.... What does this mean." Ling Yan stared confusedly at Guo Kai who suddenly saluted even prostrate before him.
"My master Zhao Lin was a loyal disciple and follower of Ling Tian's ancestor in the past, and I as a loyal follower of Zhao Lin's ancestor will always remain loyal to him and his descendants." Guo Kai said sincerely.
Ling Yan was slightly stunned by Guo Kai's attitude towards him.
"When it was a long time ago and I was a descendant who was included in failing to carry on the martial talents of my ancestors, but this sword spirit...."
"Get up senior, you don't have to go that far." Ling Yan wanted to help Guo Kai to rise from his spot but the sword spirit instead refused.
"No young master Ling, before I get up from my place I should at least do something to make amends for my master in the past for not being able to help his teacher face the other five masters of heaven's destiny."
Guo Kai still remained in a prostrate state before Ling Yan said.
"Then let me inherit the power of the illusory fog sword, and one more I don't want you to call me young master because I would rather be an ordinary person than be a revered one."
Seeing Ling Yan who was dislikeful of his attitude made Guo Kai rise quickly from his spot.
"Ha.... Why is that so, isn't the deep energy I have more than enough to control this sword?" Ling Yan asked as he shrugged both of his shoulders.
"Yes that's right, but the illusory fog sword is not a random sword, because once you pull this sword out of its sheath, it's not, it will suck all your inner strength if you don't rise to the level of the holy warrior first.
Then after that the consciousness you have will disappear and make the illusory fog sword take over the soul and spirit of its user, and if that happens, it will, you will also be sucked into the illusory fog sword and become this sword spirit just as it has happened to me." Guo Kai.
Ling Yan was slightly goosebumps hearing the explanation about the illusory fog sword from Guo Kai, but after a while, Ling Yan felt that there was a hint of awkwardness from that explanation.
"Wait a minute, you said I could be a sword spirit like you, so you are. You were also once a human like me!!!" Ling Yan pointed towards Guo Kai with a silly facial expression.
While Guo Kai, he even grinned while smiling awkwardly and scratching his head that did not itch.
"Hehehe actually used to be one of the right-handers of master Zhao Lin, and while I was still at the senior level, I had a bit of a mischievous nature and was idly examining the heirloom sword belonging to master.
And that day also made me regret the deeds I did until I became the sword spirit that I am today." Guo Kai replied while chuckling.
"Ekhmm but.... If only I could currently return to human form, perhaps my strength would now be above that of a 1-star earth warrior, as every master Zhao Lin fought, perhaps, I always get a lot of natural energy supply from his opponents that he killed back then." Guo Kai again.
Ling Yan was initially unconcerned by what Guo Kai said, but given that Guo Kai was a spirit, a brilliant idea flashed through his mind.
"Hehe I can make you back to being human, even if you're willing to help me in the future." Ling Yan's words managed to make Guo Kai interested.
"Returned me to be human? how's it?" Ling Yan regained a look of disbelief from that illusory fog sword spirit.
"If you believe me, follow me for 10 years then I'll make you back to being human like you used to be."
Guo Kai looked at Ling Yan's confident gaze back stunned, but he felt that it was very impossible for a young man who had not even ascended to the stage of a saint swordsman yet.
"If you succeed in returning me to being human again, then I will follow you and be a loyal follower until the end of my life, even if you have offspring I will also be loyal until my body can do nothing more." Guo Kai replied without any hesitation.
Guo Kai replied like that because his hopes of becoming a human again were almost nonexistent at all, so if only Ling Yan could do such a thing, then, so following Ling Yan to the end of his life was no problem for him either.
Ling Yan smiled sweetly hearing the illusionary fog sword spirit's answer.
"Well, you said it yourself yes, then now get me out of this fog of illusion."
Guo Kai then returned into the illusory fog sword while pulling back the fog that enveloped and blocked Ling Yan's view.
A while later Ling Yan's consciousness finally returned with his hand still clinging to the hilt of the illusory fog sword.
