chapter 6240: sixty years of wall facing
âthe hard way?â the princess sneered: âiâve heard this so many times already. i didnât know this place belonged to your clan.â
she heard it from willow venerable earlier and the same thing was being said, igniting her fiery temper.
âthis place might not belong to our clan but please back off for my ancestorâs focus.â ling fengshuai didnât relent.
âbronze-blade ancestor?â orchidcore guessed after seeing the youthâs confidence.
âthatâs right. so it is time to leave.â fengshuai said proudly.
âhe wants to become an emperor here.â monk zhu understood.
âso what if your ancestor is a famous cultivator?â princess chen didnât want to back down.
the guy was a big shot, more famous than coldblade due to his early debut. he was a great genius with swift cultivation speed.
everyone thought he would be able to revitalize the ling because after the death of iron-sword maiden, they failed to produce notable cultivators.
the clan was once a powerful dao system. its progenitor was known as a peerless sword saint. it declined like many others, eventually rising under the title of the ling instead of its previous name.
her iron sword defeated mighty foes and toiled under the banner of life and death heaven. she participated in all the major wars and battles.
later on, she returned to the ling, rumored to have run out of lifespan or suffering from grievous injuries. they couldnât be healed and she passed away in the clan.
this pushed the clan off the cliff again until the emergence of bronze-blade ancestor. his talent and success brought hope to the clan once more. all thought he could become a primal ancestor in the future, a higher evaluation versus coldbladeâs prospect.
contrary to expectation, he was stuck at the pseudo level and no one heard of any advancement.
âfellow daoists, i apologize for not educating my descendant well enough and that he had offended you.â bronze-blade bowed to the group.
this startled the young ones who immediately returned the gesture.
princess chen smiled wryly and said: âisnât the punishment a little too harsh? we were also impetuous.â
âarrogance must be avoided since it can herald sect destruction.â bronze-blade said sentimentally.
âthat is correct. fortunately, you are smart and our young noble wasnât peeved by it. otherwise, he could just wipe out your clan.â the monarch nodded.
the young ones thought he was crossing the line and winked at him repeatedly. after all, the pseudo-emperor was being humble and sincere.
moreover, it was only a verbal quarrel and no harm was done. unfortunately, ling fengshuai was punished for sixty years of wall facing.
âthe young noble?â bronze-blade himself was confused by the overbearing response.
âhe is our young noble. come and pay respect already. earning his favor is your fortune.â the monarch laughed and said.
the group didnât know whether to laugh or cry since the powerful monarch was keen on pleasing li qiye.
bronze-blade took a look at li qiye; his confusion only grew. when he was landing, he scanned the group and knew the geniuses had prestigious backgrounds.
he didnât pay attention to li qiye then, assuming the guy was a servant. nevertheless, he still bowed and said: âmy descendant had offended you, i apologize in his stead, young noble.â
âiâve never seen such a magnanimous pseudo-emperor before.â monk zhu whispered to his peers.
other pseudo-emperors would never act in this manner. it wasnât his fault and the only crime was arrogance.
âthe truth is that when i was young, i was arrogant and treated everyone rudely.â bronze-blade said with a smile.
