Chapter 737: First-Class Swordsman
Jian San took the order and left.
"We must change." The leader of Jianhe Sect murmured.
…
Sword Sect.
When people from Jianhe Sect came to the door, Jianzong immediately summoned Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen's status in the Sword Sect is much higher than Jian Jiu's.
"Jian Jiu is a genius, but his sword skills are not enough to support the future of the Sword Sect."
Jiang Chen frowned and said nothing when he received the news.
"Jian Jiu's qualifications are not good, but we can support newcomers to come up."
"Also, we have another advantage, which is that we have no shortage of resources."
"We can help Jian Jiu become a first-rate swordsman."
The Sword Sect elders made suggestions one after another.
Jiang Chen hesitated for a moment and nodded.
"I see."
He understood what Jian Zong meant. Jian Zong wanted to support Jian Jiu to become a first-class swordsman.
Jian Jiu's status in the Sword Sect is second only to Senior Sister Jian Jiu. If Jian Jiu succeeds, he will also be considered a core member of the Sword Sect.
"Which lineage do you think we should choose?" Jiang Chen asked.
"Jian Jiu has an extraordinary talent, but his character is too impetuous. I'm afraid he can't handle a big responsibility." The elders of the Sword Sect pondered for a moment and said.
"Then I will choose his senior sister."
Jiang Chen pointed at one of the elders.
The elder was stunned for a moment, then he was ecstatic when he realized what was happening.
Jiang Chen is going to hand over the future of Jianhe Sect to him.
.......
Jiang Chen came to Jianhe Sect and learned that he was going to visit the Sect's leader.
The headmaster came to greet him personally.
"May I ask, sir, who are you?"
The head of the sect was respectful, and he could tell that Jiang Chen was no ordinary person.
Jiang Chen took out the token and revealed his identity.
When the head of the sect saw this, he was so frightened that he trembled all over and almost fell to his knees.
"So you are the dean of Xuanwu College. My apologies."
Jiang Chen nodded slightly and went straight to the point, asking him who was secretly controlling the Wanhua Tower.
"To be honest, the mastermind behind the secret manipulation of Wanhua Tower is the mayor of Qingzhou City."
The head of the sect said cautiously: "I have tried to persuade Jian Jiu, but he is determined to take revenge and there is no room for negotiation."
"Do you know how he knew the secret of Wanhua Tower?" Jiang Chen asked again.
"Jian Jiu mentioned it to me. According to him, someone leaked it deliberately. He didn't want to say who it was." The head of the sect shook his head.
"Jian Jiu's talent is not weak, but his character is unstable and he is not suitable to be the headmaster."
Jiang Chen nodded slightly. Jian Jiu’s talent was indeed good, but his mindset was not mature enough.
"However, if I were to be the leader of the Sword Sect, I would be able to do the job."
The Sect Leader could see that Jiang Chen was planning to continue staying in the Sword Sect.
"I will stay in the Sword Sect for a while." Jiang Chen said.
The headmaster breathed a sigh of relief.
Jiang Chen is a genius in swordsmanship and is able to teach disciples of the Sword Sect.
If Jiang Chen left, the Sword Sect would surely decline or even be destroyed.
......
Jiang Chen came to Wanhua Tower and prepared to buy it.
"Shopkeeper, I bought this house."
Jiang Chen said to the shopkeeper.
"I'm sorry, this house belongs to Jianhe Sect. I can't sell it to you."
The shopkeeper said.
"Oh? Aren't you looking for a successor?" Jiang Chen asked in surprise.
"That's right."
The shopkeeper said bitterly: "It's just that our Jianhe Sect has declined . The current Jianhe Sect no longer exists."
Hearing this, Jiang Chen frowned. He really didn't expect this.
"Then why did you reject me?" he asked puzzledly.
"Because you are not from Jianhe Sect." said the shopkeeper.
"Then who am I?"
Jiang Chen said dissatisfiedly.
"You are a swordsman prodigy."
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "We in Jianhe Sect don't have such a genius, so you are not from Jianhe Sect."
Hearing this, Jiang Chen became even more confused.
He wanted to stay in the Sword Sect, but now even the Jianhe Sect would not allow him to stay.
"What exactly happened in your Jianhe Sect?" Jiang Chen couldn't help but ask.
"Alas~"
The shopkeeper sighed and told what he knew.
It turned out that five years ago, someone attacked Jianhe Sect and destroyed the entire sect.
After listening to this, Jiang Chen remained silent for a long time.
He had no doubt that it was definitely done by the demons.
Sooner or later they will destroy the entire fairy world fragment.
Jiang Chen suddenly thought of something and asked, "How strong is that demon?"
"Very strong. Very strong."
The shopkeeper thought for a moment and said seriously, "He can kill a Divine Transformation Stage cultivator instantly."
Instant kill in the God Transformation Stage!
Jiang Chen's pupils constricted.
This power can no longer be described by mortals, it can almost be said to be immortal.
"So strong?"
Jiang Chen remembered that Jian Jiu’s master had said that his great-grandmaster was an immortal-level expert.
"Yes, even the founder of our Jianhe Sect is no match for him."
The shopkeeper said: "But he seems to be waiting for something."
Jiang Chen's heart moved, he seemed to know what the demon was waiting for.
The founder of Jianhe School and the founder of Jianzong.
The people of Jianhe Sect call the founder of Jianzong "Old Ancestor".
The ancestor of the Sword Sect is also called Jian Invincible.
The Jianhe School's swordsmanship originated from Jian Wudi.
"You have excellent talent. Our Sword Sect needs you. Are you willing to join the Sword Sect?" asked the shopkeeper.
He knew that Jiang Chen practiced swordsmanship.
"I want to know what the Sword Sect's current situation is." Jiang Chen did not agree directly.
"The Sword Sect is now in disarray."
The shopkeeper said: "After the death of our Sword Sect's ancestor Jian Wudi, the Sword Sect split into two camps."
"One group adheres to the right path, and the other group adheres to the wrong path."
"The Righteous Alliance has the upper hand, and the Sword Sect is losing ground."
Jian Wudi, the founder of the Sword Sect, is a genius among geniuses.
He led the Sword Sect to glory.
Unfortunately, when he passed away, the Sword Sect encountered a crisis.
In that battle, Jian Wudi was defeated miserably and was no match for the leader of the Righteous Alliance. He was seriously injured and died.
The Righteous Alliance took this opportunity to defeat the Sword Sect in one fell swoop.
"The Sword Sect was destroyed, and the disciples fled everywhere. I was lucky enough to survive." The shopkeeper's face was gloomy.
"Where's Senior Brother Jian Jiu?"
Jiang Chen asked.
"Brother Jian Jiu took Jian Qi away from Jianhe Sect." The shopkeeper said, "His talent in swordsmanship is not inferior to Jian Wudi, but his mind is not mature enough, so he made mistakes."
When the Jianhe Sect was destroyed by the Righteous Alliance, only Senior Brother Jianjiu and Jianqi ran away and did not participate.
"Then why do you want to stay in the Sword Sect?" Jiang Chen asked.
"I want to find Senior Brother Jian Jiu, hoping to dissuade him."
"Do you think I can stop him?"
Jiang Chen smiled bitterly.
"Once he has decided on what to do, he won't change it." said the shopkeeper.
Jiang Chen nodded, he also agreed with this statement.
Then he added, "If you want to stay, I don't mind taking you as my apprentice."
"Thank you, sir." The shopkeeper was very excited.
He originally thought Jiang Chen would refuse, but who knew Jiang Chen actually agreed.
"Do all the people in your Sword Sect practice swordsmanship?" Jiang Chen suddenly asked.
The shopkeeper hesitated for a moment and said, "Basically every sword cultivator practices swordsmanship."
"How many disciples are there in the Sword Sect?"
"About three hundred people."
The shopkeeper said: "However, these people do not have sword spirits, or have not reached the Golden Core Stage."
