”Thank you for your praise, senior!” Hong Ling bowed and said to Xiao Chuhe. He had always felt that his Imperial Sword Technique was unorthodox, he never thought that it would actually be able to get the recognition of an elder who was proficient in Sword Manipulation. How could he not be happy?

”This is not a compliment, but my true opinion!” Xiao Chuhe shook his head, then continued, ”The so-called Sword Manipulation, is actually when a cultivator imprints their own soul inside a sword, and nurtures it into a sword spirit. On the day the sword spirit was first formed, the cultivator used his own cultivation technique to create a spirit vein for the sword spirit, allowing it to have the ability to swallow and spit out Heaven and Earth Spiritual Power. When the sword spirit has mastered itself, and then use the sword intent that you have comprehended as the sword spirit to cast your body, this will be the complete process of cultivation of the Imperial Sword Technique. ”

”Many people, because they could not comprehend the sword intent, would never be able to cultivate Sword Manipulation. Furthermore, after comprehending the sword intent, one still needs to slowly nurture a spirit sword. Once the sword spirit has formed and formed a connection with the sword master's heart, one can take a person's head thousands of miles away! ” Xiao Chuhe continued to speak. He looked at Hong Ling's thoughtful appearance and nodded. It would seem that since this youth was able to comprehend the art of controlling the sword on his own, his own comprehension ability was extremely strong as well.

Hong Ling carefully thought about Xiao Chuhe's words. After a long while, he finally let out a long sigh.

”Thank you senior for your pointers, Hong Ling will be forever grateful!”

Xiao Chuhe shook his head, as if he didn't care. He kept the sword back into the sword sheath, casually patted his sleeves, and asked Hong Ling: ”I heard that you want to join my Jixia Academy?”

The teenager was startled, then nodded his head and joined Jixia Academy. To him, it was not bad at all. He himself didn't want to join any sects or forces, nor did he want to join any of the large families, so Jixia Academy was undoubtedly the best choice.

”Yes, senior. This junior has always wanted to join Jixia Academy!” Hong Ling said impatiently.

”Oh, since you want to join Jixia Academy so much, can you tell me the reason?” Xiao Chuhe asked curiously, only to see Hong Ling casually taking out a golden order badge, and placing it in his hands.

”Senior, do you recognize this item?” Hong Ling asked in anticipation as he handed over the command tablet his father had left on him to Xiao Chuhe.

Xiao Chuhe's expression instantly changed. He quickly grabbed the token and with a flick of his sleeve, brought the youth to a large hall. He casually waved his hand, and a vast Authentic Qi appeared in the hall, completely sealing the entire hall.

”How did you get this?” Xiao Chuhe gasped for breath as he asked, his eyes filled with shock as he stared straight at Hong Ling. Your name is Hong Ling? Your surname is Hong? ”

Hong Ling nodded. Seeing Xiao Chuhe's expression, he knew that the order badge his father gave him was no small matter.

”Senior, this item was left behind by my father!”

”Who is your father?” Xiao Chuhe asked nervously.

”Great Chu's champion, Hong Qing!”

”What about your mother?”

”Shang Xue!”

”What evidence?”

Weng, a small crystal was slowly taken out by Hong Ling's soul consciousness from the depths of the Divine Hall. This crystal was a memory crystal, left behind by his mother Shang Xue. But up until now, Hong Ling still could not unlock it. The only thing he knew was that this crystal had given him a hint of information, asking him to come to Jixia Academy.

Xiao Chuhe looked at the crystal in front of him, his eyes filled with shock. He looked at Hong Ling and indicated for him to keep it.

”Right now, I am already ninety percent certain that you are Hong Qing's son. However, I need someone else to appraise this final ten percent. It's a big deal, and I can't be too sure. I can't open this crystal, but someone can, so you have to wait for a while! When I get hold of that person, I will get him to come and appraise you! ” Xiao Chuhe took in a deep breath and stared at the youth in front of him in shock. He said, ”Remember, from today onwards, do not mention your identity to anyone. At the very least, before that person admits your identity!”

”Senior, who exactly is that person you spoke of?” Hong Ling was a little curious.

”I can't say, but very soon, you will know!” Xiao Chuhe returned the Golden Token to him and after seeing him put it away, he casually waved his hand to remove the barrier. When he brought Hong Ling out, Qingyao was already waiting outside the great hall with his master and servant.

”Geezer, what did you bring this brat along for?” Qingyao carelessly asked.

”Of course I'm asking him for your betrothal gift!” Xiao Chuhe was obviously in a good mood as he joked.

”No, Hong Ling cannot give you a betrothal gift!” Su Yu coldly snorted, he stood in front of Xiao Chuhe and said stubbornly. He's my boyfriend, if I don't agree with him marrying Qingyao, Big Sister Lian Chengyue will also not agree! ”

Hong Ling felt a headache, looking at the current Su Yu, his eyes were filled with helplessness. This silly girl, could it be that Xiao Chuhe was joking with his daughter?

”Little girl, it's not okay if you don't agree. It'll be better if he does!” Qingyao looked at Su Yu and laughed. When she said the word 'small', she purposefully suppressed her tone and puffed out her breasts. The provocative look in her eyes was very arrogant.
