"Hmph! Don't believe his words, Grandpa! It was impossible for him to be from the Intermediate Sky Continent and it became a very impossible thing that he could survive the Despair. Not even a child would believe what he said." The young man named Zi Nan, who had just fought for the ownership of the Sacred Lake, said to the South Wind Sword Sect Leader, while grunting in annoyance towards Ling Tian.
Zi Nan was also the favorite granddaughter of the Southern Wind Sword Sect Leader, so it was only she who dared to act in such a manner in front of him.
"What Zi Nan said was very true, Leader! How could anyone possibly survive the Abyss of Despair? Moreover, the young man said that he had suddenly appeared in this place through the Despair of Despair. From his words alone it had already proven that he had lied." One of the elders confirmed Zi Nan's words.
"Hmmm ... We'd better give this young man a very heavy sentence, Leader. He had dared to enter the Sacred Lake and absorb the pure energy that was there. Even he dared to destroy the Protective Formation we installed. I also sensed that the pure energy on the Sacred Lake had already reduced by a great deal." The other elders also expressed their opinions.
However, everyone saw that the Southern Wind Sword Sect Leader kept staring fixedly at Ling Tian as if not listening to Zi Nan and the two elders.
Ling Tian just kept silent while smiling lightly when he saw the reaction that the Southern Wind Sword Sect Leader had shown towards him.
"Hehehe ... Looks like this old geezer isn't as stupid as those people." Ling Tian laughed softly in his heart.
"Young man! You said your name was Ling Tian, right?" ask the Southern Wind Sword Sect Leader.
"Yes ... Right, old grandpa. My name is Ling Tian," Ling Tian replied briefly.
"Is everything you said just now also true?" asked the Southern Wind Sword Sect Leader again with a probing gaze, without being offended by the words of Ling Tian who called out to him as 'Old grandfather'.
"Yes! Everything I said was true."
Hearing Ling Tian's resolute reply, the Southern Wind Sword Sect Leader turned to the Cloud Sword Sect Leader and said, "Old Zhao! Whaddya think? Do you think as I think?"
"Hey, Old Zi! You always throw every problem at me. Can't you finish it yourself?" replied the Cloud Sword Sect Leader in a complaining tone.
"Reph ... I have repeatedly told you that I have never thrown trouble at you, but rather I ask for your opinion," grumbled the Southern Wind Sword Sect Leader.
"Do you really want to listen to my opinion, Old Zi?"
"Yes! Of course I want to hear it."
"I think what that young man named Ling Tian said is true."
"Yes! I also agree with you, Old Chao.
"Hey ... Hey ... Why have you always followed my opinion, Old Zi?"
"That's because we actually always agree, Old Chao!"
Hearing the two sect leaders start to quarrel, everyone's faces instantly turned sour. As for Ling Tian himself, he tried to restrain himself from laughing at the eccentric behavior of these two old geezers who were in front of him.
"Do you two really believe me?" ling Tian asked as he smiled his trademark smile.
"Mmc ... Me too!" add the Southern Wind Sword Sect Leader while nodding.
"Why?" asked Ling Tian again in a tone of astonishment.
Everyone who was in that place also wanted to know what reason their Sect Leader said so. Why was their Sect Leader so easy to believe in what a young man had just met?
"Acity ... The story is very long. You're the one who told me about Old Chao!" said the Southern Wind Sword Sect Leader.
"What did I really say? You always throw trouble at me, Old Zi!" reply the Cloud Sword Sect Leader in an annoyed tone. Then continue, "Alright, I'll tell you. Although I am still hesitant with what you said about your origin from the Intermediate Sky Continent, but I believe about you who have gone through the Despair Gap."
"Actually, Old Zi and I are a fellow. Our teacher is a Star King level cultivator who is also referred to as a Martial King. Everyone knew that the Star King's cultivation level was above the Sky Star level."
"Our teachers are from the Upper Sky Continent. He was also brought by the Spatial Tunnel to this Sky Intersection Continent about 500 years ago. Our teacher is constantly looking for ways to return to the Upper Sky Continent. However, back then he had not managed to achieve his goal and instead was stuck inside the Abyss of Despair for many years."
"He managed to get out of there because he was forced to use his Damai Treasure which allowed him to teleport to this place. Two hundred years ago, he found the two of us and raised us to become his disciples. He also said that his Destruction Treasure would continue to be within the Despair of Despair and could help the fallen cultivators there, as long as they were able to hold on until they found his Destruction Treasure."
"After teaching us each of the sword techniques he had, our Master left again to find a way back to the Upper Sky Continent. That was 150 years ago. In my opinion, our Master has successfully returned to the Upper Sky Continent."
Hearing the Cloud Sword Sect Leader's story, everyone finally understood why the two Sect Leaders believed that Ling Tian had truly entered the Despair of Despair.
"Hmmm ... So it's like that, dad?! Means the energy vortex I encountered inside the Despair Gap is your Teacher's Heirloom Treasure. Because that energy vortex is what brought me to this place." Ling Tian said in a slightly excited tone as he finished listening to the story told by the Cloud Sword Sect Leader.
"Yes ... Like that's. My master also explained to us that his Damage Treasure could form an energy vortex that made him teleport to this place," replied the Cloud Sword Sect Leader.
"If the two of you are disciples of that Martial King, why did you set up a different sect? Wouldn't it be better if your sect united?" asked Ling Tian astonished.
"That's because ever since the two of us were appointed by Master to be his students, we were ordered to keep competing to determine who was stronger among us," countered the Southern Wind Sword Sect Leader before the Cloud Sword Sect Leader answered him, then added, "And I am the strongest among the two of us. Haha ...."
"Ciiiu ... That was in the past! But now, you can no longer defeat me," sneered the Cloud Sword Sect Leader.
"Gmph ... Old Chao! Do you dare to fight with me now? Not long ago my Wind Sword Technique had already reached the level of perfection compared to your Cloud Sword Technique." The leader of the Southern Wind Sword Sect snorted in annoyance.
"Reph ... Who is afraid, Old Zi?! Do you think that only your Wind Sword Technique has reached the level of perfection? My Cloud Sword Technique has also achieved it, perhaps even more perfect than your mastery of the sword." The leader of the Cloud Sword Sect bent the corners of his lips forming a mocking smile.
Seeing the two Sect Leaders constantly fighting and even getting ready to fight, Ling Tian could no longer hold back his laughter. Because, according to him, the two old men really had an eccentric attitude, so Ling Tian was happy with their attitude.
Because he knew, even though the two of them kept fighting, it was just a quarrel to prove who was the strongest and there would be no killing intent in it.
"Haha ... Old Grandpa! What if you two fight with me at once? If any of you can hurt me a little, then he is the strongest and the winner!" ling Tian exclaimed with a joyful laugh.
