Chapter 1138: Conversation in the Void

Jian Wu Bei glanced at the grave one last time. He glanced at the old man who was sweeping. Maybe to the old man, it didn’t mean anything in particular.

Jian Wu Bei also followed the others. He was surprised and sad at the same time. The only hope for the people of Jiange was a sword, that was embarrassing to admit, to say the least. Even if it was the ancestor’s sword, it was only one sword. Did the people of Jiange think that nobody could make Jiange rise up again?

When everybody left, the old man continued sweeping slowly, after that, he entered the grave again and closed the door.

Once inside the grave, he was alone again. He swept the ground a little bit more and then sat down. he looked at the empty air and said, “There’s nobody left anymore, you can come out.”

“Why would I need to?” said a voice. The old man didn’t look surprised, he knew that person.

“Why did you help him? How do you know him?” asked the old man.

“It’s not important. As long as things work out, that’s the main goal. Today, you gave him something incredible. Maybe that the sword will bring back an incredible cultivator the next time it comes back. It’s a nice thing that you helped him. Besides, you must have noticed something to let him go with the sword! That was a gamble.” said that voice. It was still difficult to know where it came from.

“I don’t gamble. Besides, the sword can’t do much here. And that little boy gave me a good impression. Besides, good things could happen to Jiange too. It’s probably better this way. I didn’t want Jiange’s people to offend someone like you.” said the old man. He was still sitting and chatting normally. He didn’t even know who he was chatting with.

“I’m off.” the Qi disappeared and the grave became normal again. The old man knew that the person had already left.

He slowly stood up again, he was crooked and looked sick. He took back his broom and continued sweeping the grave, cleaning all those old swords.

Back in Sword City, where Lin Feng and Xue Bi Yao had just fought a few days before, there were still many people, including terribly strong cultivators.

The town was bathing in dazzling lights, however, it was because of the moon. The moon wasn’t as dazzling as when Lin Feng and Baguio had battled, but it was a different kind of shine.

It was dazzling, some strong cultivators were trying to hide it, but they couldn’t manage to hide those lights completely. Those were celestial lights and it had been that way for a few days already.

A holy, celestial girl was creating those lights. She was wearing white clothes and possessed a snowy white skin.

The people from the Celestial Land of Alchemists hadn’t left yet because of her. She was called the celestial girl, but now she didn’t look as celestial and as holy as before.

“Nature pills are high quality holy pills, but they can’t have that powerful of an effect either.” whispered Xue Bi Yao. The holy celestial lights still illuminated the city, but it had been a few days since she had taken the nature pill.
