Rebirth of the Supreme Celestial Being

Chapter 665- Warning Xiuxiu

After Yan Tianhen explained, he found some reason to run away, as if he was afraid that Tianshu Sword Saint would force him on the spot to hand over the rusty sword and the blood cypress sap. He even let go of the opportunity to be under the same roof as Lin Xuanzhi.

After Yan Tianhen ran away, Tianshu Sword Saint pondered on something that seemed off and said, “After all is said, who doesn’t want the sword they take from Hidden Sword Peak to be a peerless sword? But that boy isn’t even curious about the sword’s actual appearance behind the rust and gave up just like that? Something’s wrong with this. There must be something strange going on.”

Yan Tianhen was not dumb, he just thought they were dumb.

“Aren’t you suspicious at all?” Tianshu Sword Saint pondered as he turned to Lin Xuanzhi.

“What can I be suspicious of?” Huarong Sword Immortal simply curled his lips into a mysterious smile. “If he doesn’t want to use a sword, then I can’t force him to use one. The Xiuxiu in his hand seems to possess some intelligence of its own. Perhaps Ah Hen and Xiuxiu already have some telepathic communications between them, so why force him so urgently?”

Yan Tianhen can do whatever he wants. It’s nothing more than a sword. If he really doesn’t like it, then so what even if I break that sword and personally refine a new sword for him?

“You…” Tianshu Sword Saint couldn’t help saying, “Aren’t you spoiling him too much? It’s simply absurd.”

Lin Xuanzhi smiled without a word.

So what if it’s absurd? How many more years can this child remain so carefree?

He simply wanted Ah Hen to be as free as he could be. Lin Xuanzhi wanted to spoil his person to the heavens. It wasn’t like this would hinder the people around them.

Yan Tianhen walked faster and faster, until he broke into a run. The nearby scenery blurred together as he became a shadow. He ran to the foot of Hidden Sword Peak, unsheathed the rusty sword, and forcefully threw it onto the ground.

Clang!

The rusty sword was thrown ten meters away.

The rusty sword was lying on the ground pitifully, completely unlike its energetic appearance on Hidden Sword Peak that day. That made sense. No sword could still have so much energy after leaving Chang Sheng’s grave.

Yan Tianhen took a deep breath. His gaze became somewhat cold as he pointed at that sword. “It’s fine that you don’t acknowledge me as your master, but I don’t care what material you’re made of, and I don’t care what relationship you have with Chang Sheng — behave yourself, do you hear me? If you dare to have inappropriate thoughts and do things that I don’t want to see, then be careful that I’ll break you into eight pieces and throw you to the mortal realm.”

Xiuxiu suddenly stood up and gave a trembling sound, as if it was protesting Yan Tianhen’s words.

Yan Tianhen’s expression darkened even further when he saw this. A purple and black Yin Flame Whip materialized in his hand.

Black for demonic Qi and purple for evil Qi.

Yan Tianhen narrowed his eyes. “You should remember me, so you should also know that I’m not a soft-hearted person. In the past, you didn’t want to submit to me or touch any blood, but in the end, didn’t you still have to follow me as I slaughtered all the living beings and crossed the mountain of corpses and sea of blood, killing everything from the demon realm to the Nine Lands? Now that you have been stained with blood rust, you can live out your life in peace as an old sword. Don’t get any ideas.”

The rusty sword seemed to be scared and immediately fell to the ground with a Bang, pretending to be dead.

Although Yan Tianhen spoke fierce words, his eyes became slightly watery. However, he still steeled himself and grabbed the sword, about to throw it out once again.

“What did your Xiuxiu do wrong? Did it offend you?” A soft voice came from behind him.

Yan Tianhen suddenly stopped his throwing motion and turned to see Yin Changge — no, Rong Zhishui — standing behind him with a face full of bewilderment.

Yan Tianhen’s heart beat loudly, and his expression darkened a little. “When did you come here? How much did you see?”

Yan Tianhen had a guilty conscience right now. In this instant, he emitted some killing intent.

Rong Zhishui was also scared by the cold violence in Yan Tianhen’s eyes. He almost turned around and fled, but on second thought, he guessed that the killing intent was because Yan Tianhen still held a grudge about being screwed over in the Tomb of Youshan, so he became calm again.

Rong Zhishui’s beautiful face, which was deeply loved by the male disciples, looked very apologetic, which made people unable to bear reproaching him. “I just came over and saw you venting your anger on your sword.”

Rong Zhishui rubbed his nose and continued, “I’m here to apologize to you. I wronged you over the matter regarding the Tomb of Youshan, and I also concealed my actual identity from you earlier…”

Yan Tianhen sized up Rong Zhishui. After a while, he calmed down. It seems that Rong Zhishui didn’t see anything.

Yan Tianhen put Xiuxiu away and replied, “I’ve stopped blaming you a long time ago for what happened before. In any case, as the Rong family’s Young Master, you would never have been able to persuade the wife of your Rong family’s ancestor.”

Rong Zhishui, “…What do you mean?”

“Even now, you’re probably still in the dark. The person in Youshan Capital isn’t your family’s ancestor at all, but his lover. He’s called Lian Hua, not Cang Rong.”

Rong Zhishui, “…”

Rong Zhishui’s mouth became an “O” at a speed visible to the naked eye.

“How about it? Are you scared? Have you been tricked? Hahahahaha……” Yan Tianhen threw his head back and laughed demonically.

“I know this name.” Rong Zhishui’s breathing was a little short.

“Eh?” Yan Tianhen’s laughter suddenly stopped.

Rong Zhishui grabbed Yan Tianhen’s hand. His eyes were wide open and he appeared very excited. “To think he’s actually Lian Hua! I saw this name on my ancestor’s tablet and on the scroll behind that tablet! Oh, Heavens, I’ve actually met my ancestor’s Dao companion!”

Yan Tianhen, “…”

What kind of development is this?

Shouldn’t you feel angry after being tricked?

How did it turn into excitement?

“Ah Hen, you’re too kind. Ah Hen, I must treat you to dinner today. Oh right, where did my ancestor’s Dao companion go? Since the seal on Youshan has been broken, he should’ve come out as well. Why can’t he be found?”

Yan Tianhen looked at Rong Zhishui expressionlessly. “He has already entered the cycle of reincarnation. Right now…… Who knows where he is. He probably became a baby right now.”

First Rong Zhishui was stunned. Then he breathed a sigh of relief. “That’s also a good thing. I feel miserable when I see him waiting year in and year out in that place without sunlight for a person who will never return. If he can reincarnate and start again, then that’s also a blessing.”

After sighing for a moment, Rong Zhishui finally remembered the reason he went to look for Yan Tianhen. “Ah Hen, have you heard about how your Fuyao Sect’s disciples all came to Myriad Dao Academy a few days earlier to ask for the astrology platform to be activated?”

“Of course I know about that.”

Rong Zhishui then said, “During their argument, they mentioned the Great Immortal-Demon War of the Nine Lands and also mentioned evil Qi cultivators. Myriad Dao Academy’s judge has already rushed to the Rong family, determined to see what is recorded on that scroll.”

In recent days, there were rumors that the Rong family’s uncle, who had left the family a long time ago, revealed the greatest secret that the Rong family had been trying to hide all these years. Yan Tianhen had also heard of this.

Myriad Dao Academy’s judge, Sheng Ya, was an extremely fair and impartial person who couldn’t tolerate a single speck of sand in his eyes. Let alone the Rong family concealing the truth about the Great Immortal-Demon War, he couldn’t even tolerate a slight error in the sect’s records and would insist on correcting it.

Yan Tianhen walked to the East Courtyard with Rong Zhishui. While walking, he answered, “Of course I’ve heard about that. Moreover, it’s said that the judge’s attitude is extraordinarily tough?”

Rong Zhishui said with a bitter smile, “It wasn’t just tough. He practically wanted to tear down the Rong family. He was determined to enter the Rong family’s ancestral hall and personally look at the scroll behind our ancestor’s memorial tablet.”

Yan Tianhen, “…”

How is that any different from openly robbing the Rong family?

Yan Tianhen asked with confusion, “Shouldn’t Judge Sheng Ya be the most law-abiding? He probably wouldn’t do such things.”

Rong Zhishui sighed. Then his gaze sharpened as he stiffened his posture and spoke in an extremely cold and solemn voice, “Cultivators are those who dare to fight against Heaven and snatch from other cultivators. Moreover, this matter is related to the Nine Lands’ survival. If the Rong family wants to avoid any involvement, then it must take out the scroll to prove their innocence, or else I will certainly investigate this to the end!”

“Your impersonation is quite good.” After Yan Tianhen gave a significant evaluation, he looked at Rong Zhishui sympathetically. “You guys really have bad luck, to actually provoke the judge.”

Once Judge Sheng Ya found even a spider’s thread, he would certainly get to the bottom of the matter.

“But the Rong family is also to blame. Their actions back then were too vicious and first offended that uncle of mine. This entanglement can’t be explained in a few words, but the story will make people sigh. I will tell you later.”

Rong Zhishui’s face was full of worry. He was somewhat speechless as he added, “Right now, Tianshu Sword Saint is using his real name as guarantee. He swore to Heaven that the Rong family definitely has a second set of historical records about the Immortal-Demon War and that it’s related to evil Qi cultivators. He even swore that the Rong family also concealed other Heaven-shocking secrets. I’m afraid that it won’t be long before the Nine Lands’ other families also start exerting pressure on the Rong family.”

Yan Tianhen, “…”

Sword Saint Tianshu and the Rong family really have a deep hatred against each other ah. He seized this opportunity to throw stones at the Rong family while it was down, refusing to delay this for even a minute.

Rong Zhishui’s eyes looked at Yan Tianhen with a burning gaze. “Ah Hen, are you interested in the things recorded on that scroll?”

Yan Tianhen, “No. I’m more interested in the enmity between Tianshu Sword Saint and the Rong family right now.”

Rong Zhishui, “…”

Rong Zhishui looked at Yan Tianhen with hidden bitterness.

Yan Tianhen laughed. “You keep telling me about the scroll. Could it be that you want me to do something?”

“I really can’t hide anything from Your Highness.” Rong Zhishui blinked. “If you’re interested, what do you say we steal the scroll together?”

Yan Tianhen stared blankly for a moment, then looked at Rong Zhishui suspiciously. “What would we steal it for?”

“We steal it and make the entirety of the contents public, so that the whole world knows what really happened in the past instead of being kept in the dark like a bunch of fools.”

Yan Tianhen couldn’t help turning to face Rong Zhishui.

He had always felt that the Rong Zhishui who was disguised as Yin Changge was a pretty timid person. He wouldn’t look for trouble on his own. If trouble found him, then he would try to endure the trouble. If he couldn’t endure anymore, then he would suddenly explode with a scheme and give the enemy a head-on attack.
