”That's right, we can't not take revenge for Sect Leader, but before we take our revenge, our Heavenly Sword Sect must become strong, and only when we become stronger can we take revenge. You may not understand the power of the Heavenly Devil, but I can tell you that right now, our Heavenly Sword Sect is not enough to take revenge on us, so if we want revenge, we must have a strong Heavenly Sword Sect.” Shen Juetian said loudly.
That's right, if he wanted to take revenge, he had to first increase his Heavenly Sword Sect or else there would be no hope at all.
As for these Elders, they slowly calmed down from their restlessness and began to ponder about something.
”Juetian, we support you. If Sect Leader is already... Then, we will support you in becoming a Sect Leader, and you can't afford to lose all your Heavenly Sword Sect. ” One of the Elders said loudly.
”That's right, only Juetian is capable of shouldering such a heavy responsibility.” Another elder said loudly.
Shen Juetian nodded his head as he looked at the elders talking below, then said in a loud voice: ”I can become a Sect Leader, but I don't want the authority to be a Sect Leader, I just want to safeguard the Heavenly Sword Sect. When Sect Leader returns one day, I will definitely cede the position of Sect Leader to Shentu Xue.”
Just like this, the higher ups of the Heavenly Sword Sect turned sorrow into strength, and they chose Shen Juetian as their temporary Sect Leader, with the authority to manage everything within the Heavenly Sword Sect, all the elders uniformly supported him.
As for these things, the ordinary disciples of Heavenly Sword Sect were completely unaware.
Although their Heavenly Sword Sect had experienced a great calamity, Shen Juetian and the others were very strong.
When everyone finished discussing their decisions, they prepared to disperse.
Just then, Shen Juetian suddenly thought of something, and called the elders who were about to leave.
”Tomorrow is my annual Sword Forest competition, right?” Shen Juetian suddenly asked.
All the elders stopped walking and nodded their heads.
”Yeah, tomorrow is the competition for Sword Forest, if you don't tell us Juetian, we would have forgotten.” The Elders nodded.
”Mn, we cannot forget about the annual Sword Forest Competition. Let's hold it according to the schedule and go out and announce it to all of the disciples in the Heavenly Sword Sect.” Shen Juetian continued.
”Yes, I will go and advertise now. I believe many ordinary disciples are preparing for it.” The Great Clan Elder said softly, then left the Conference Room to announce the matter.
”There's one more thing I want to discuss with everyone.” Shen Juetian looked at the crowd, and then slowly said, ”Ye Xingchen has contributed a lot to my Heavenly Sword Sect, right?”
”If not for Ye Xingchen, I believe that our Heavenly Sword Sect had already fallen.”
”That's right, Ye Xingchen saved our entire Heavenly Sword Sect, so we should view him as our esteemed guest.”
”Ye Xingchen is the benefactor of our Heavenly Sword Sect. He saved our Heavenly Sword Sect.”
After the elders heard Shen Juetian's words, they all began to speak loudly.
They were well aware of what Ye Xingchen had done. If not for him defeating Shen Hongyu, there really would not be a single person in their Heavenly Sword Sect capable of defeating him.
Ye Xingchen laughed embarrassedly, then looked at Shen Juetian, Little Lion's honest face revealed a trace of a smile.
”Since that's the case, I want Ye Xingchen to enter the Sword Forest to comprehend the way of the sword.” Shen Juetian looked around at the crowd, his face revealing a smile, and said loudly.
Ye Xingchen froze for a moment, and the numerous elders below slightly nodded before saying, ”We support Juetian's decision. If not for Ye Xingchen, what kind of Sword Forest would we have?”
Ye Xingchen was still confused, he simply did not know what the Sword Forest they were talking about was.
After Shen Juetian told the many clan elders about the details of the competition for Sword Forest, he made the many clan elders leave.
Looking at the backs of the elders leaving, at the moment, only Ye Xingchen, Xiao Shi and Shen Juetian remained in the Conference Room.
”Shen Juetian, then what exactly is Sword Forest?” Ye Xingchen asked puzzledly, while Xiao Shi looked at Shen Juetian.
Shen Juetian glanced at Ye Xingchen, then said: ”Elder Brother Ye, do not be anxious, I will explain everything in detail for you.”
”A long time ago, our Sect Leader, Shentu Xue, traveled across the four seas, and unintentionally came to the Heavenly Sword Peak. Afterwards, he created the Heavenly Sword Sect, and not long after, at the very top of the Heavenly Sword Peak, he discovered a ruin called the Sword Forest. Shen Juetian slowly said.
”In the following time, Sect Leader finally discovered that at this time of year, this Sword Forest would disappear, and now that he has personally entered, the Sect Leader who was originally still in the Top Grandmaster Stage, has reached the Spirit Focus Realm since the Sword Forest was released, and even obtained our Heavenly Sword Sect's most valuable treasure, the Heavenly Sword Technique.” After saying that, Shen Juetian paused for a while.
”What exactly is this Sword Forest? Why would it have such an effect, and wasn't the Heavenly Sword Technique obtained when Shentu Xue was travelling across the continent? ” Ye Xingchen was confused when he heard it, and asked loudly.
Shen Juetian shook his head and said softly, ”Sect Leader is afraid that the outside world might find out about the existence of the Sword Forest, so he listed the Sword Forest as a forbidden area for the Heavenly Sword Sect. He also said that he obtained the Heavenly Sword Technique by accident, so only the higher ups of the Heavenly Sword Sect know about this.”
”What exactly is inside the Sword Forest? Why did it allow a practitioner of Grandmaster Stage to break through into the Spirit Condensation realm? ” Ye Xingchen asked while looking at Shen Juetian with suspicion.
