Chapter 193: Chapter 137: World-Shocking Secret, More Like an Exiled Immortal Than an Exiled Immortal

"Enough, that’s enough!"

Though extremely unwilling and speaking with earth-shattering fury, the Sect Leader finally compromised after consecutively losing three Sword Sons. The young man had given him absolutely no chance—not even the slightest room to hesitate or de-escalate.

Hearing the other party’s words, Jiang Hao knew he had achieved his desired result. His raised palm paused slightly in midair but showed no sign of retracting; terrifying power still surged within his grasp.

"What exactly do you want?" Master Cangchen trembled violently, his eyes fixed on the white-clad figure. No matter how foolish he was, he could guess the youth’s intentions by now. Otherwise, he could have crippled all seven of them with a single palm strike.

"It’s very simple. I want three answers." Looking at the lofty, imposing figure above, Jiang Hao spoke calmly.

Master Cangchen’s eyes looked as if they could swallow a person whole. "Fine, this Saint will give you the answers you seek! Speak! SPEAK—!!!"

BOOM!

As he spat out the final word, his saintly aura swept across the void, making the flesh on his face twitch. Facing Saint Cangchen’s heaven-devouring fury, everyone’s hearts pounded with fear. Yet, the white-clad youth remained unfazed, as if he had already mentally prepared for this.

About to receive news of his father, even Jiang Hao felt a ripple of emotion. Like an aloof, white-clad Sword Immortal looking down from above, he spoke calmly, though his eyes betrayed a flicker of agitation. "First, is my father still alive?"

When asking this question, Jiang Hao could distinctly feel his heart tremble.

Master Cangchen suppressed his anger. After a long while, he replied, "He is still in this world."

"Where is he?"

"I don’t know."

BOOM!

"Canglan!" Master Cangchen quickly added. "His last known traces were in Canglan. As for his exact location, we are also searching for him."

Having forced out the second answer, Jiang Hao couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, his entire being seemingly relaxing a bit.

Master Cangchen’s gaze, however, was as cold as ice. "That is the second answer. What else do you wish to know?"

"The purpose of the Celestial Sword Sect," Jiang Hao asked expressionlessly. Starting from his father, this sect had been hunting down the two of them, seeking to harvest their flesh and blood. Yet, to this day, no one knew what the Celestial Sword Sect’s true objective was.

RUMBLE!

The moment these words were spoken, above the clouds at the Peak of the Firmament, the entire upper echelon of the Celestial Sword Sect shuddered, their expressions changing drastically.

"Sect Leader, you must not!" a Supreme Elder of the Celestial Sword Sect desperately cried out. It seemed the reason the sect coveted their flesh and blood involved matters too vast. Even if it meant losing the Celestial Sword Seven Sons, it could not be revealed to the world.

Hearing the warning from the Peak of the Firmament, even Master Cangchen looked up in alarm. It was obvious that this touched upon some terrifying, hidden secret.

Seeing the other party hesitate, Jiang Hao immediately raised his palm and slammed it down. This time, he wasn’t targeting any single person, but instead enveloped the remaining four of the Celestial Sword Seven Sons. The strike was fast, accurate, and ruthless, leaving Master Cangchen no room to maneuver.

In the nick of time, a terrified voice rang out. "Father, save me! Save me—!!!"

Among the Celestial Sword Seven Sons, a young man with a deathly pale face cried out to Master Cangchen for help. Seeing the terrified youth, Master Cangchen finally made his decision and hurriedly shouted:

"Ten thousand years ago, your ancestor obtained a drop of blood. This drop of blood brought catastrophic disaster to the Jiang Race, but the Ten Great Daoist Lineages of that era failed to find it.

"This drop of blood was refined by a patriarch of your Jiang Family and integrated into the body of one of your ancestor’s descendants, becoming the inherited bloodline of your father’s lineage.

"Thirty years ago, they found the continuation of this bloodline—your father. And within your body, you also carry this inherited bloodline.

"The continuation of this bloodline can open a Secret Realm that has been sealed for hundreds of thousands of years, which contains an opportunity they desire.

"My Celestial Sword Sect is nothing more than one of the vested interests working under the orders of the Ten Great Daoist Lineages.

"That is all this Saint knows."

BOOM!

The moment these words fell, the entire Earth Realm of the Celestial Sword Sect shook. Countless older generation figures were filled with shock, especially because he had mentioned the Ten Great Daoist Lineages. Within the Dynasty, the only ones worthy of being called the Ten Great Daoist Lineages were those specific ten factions.

Hearing this, Jiang Hao was also deeply shaken. Although he had guessed that what his father faced was probably more terrifying than he imagined, he couldn’t help but pale in shock upon learning just how broad and high-level the scope truly was.

Looking at Master Cangchen, who didn’t seem to be lying, Jiang Hao slowly raised his eyes and parted his lips.

Seemingly reading Jiang Hao’s thoughts, Jiang Renfeng’s expression changed drastically. "Hao’Er, enough! Do not ask any further! That’s enough!"

At this moment, even Jiang Renfeng turned pale. It seemed the prestige of the Ten Great Daoist Lineages was enough to cause even a Divine King like him to panic. Matters involving the Ten Great Daoist Lineages, once spoken out loud, would undoubtedly be detrimental to Jiang Hao.

However, Jiang Hao had already made up his mind. Before coming to the Celestial Sword Sect, he had already mentally prepared himself for everything. He wanted to share the burden of his father’s terrifying predicament. Only by placing himself in the public eye could he relieve the pressure on his father.

As of now, he still had the restrictions of the Prodigy Struggle to rely on, preventing those older generation figures from making a move against him. But what his father faced was the unrestricted pursuit of supreme experts.

"What is inside the Secret Realm?"

His resolve firm, the white-clad youth’s calm words echoed throughout the skies above the Celestial Sword Sect.

Jiang Renfeng, however, lost his composure. Panicking like never before, he shouted to stop Master Cangchen. "Enough! Cangchen, you brat, shut your mouth! Shut up!"

Facing Jiang Renfeng’s frantic interruptions, Master Cangchen had absolutely no intention of stopping. Since things had already reached this point, he might as well add oil to the fire and let it burn even brighter for this young man.
