Chapter 132 - Aaaaaaaaand… cue the shock!

And with the fact that I am starting to believe that you are capable of elevating the Frozen Cloud Asgard to the level of the Sacred Grounds, I am willing to make an exception and allow you in as the first male disciple in the history of the Frozen Cloud Asgard."

And with these words, Feng Qianhui, Grand Asgard Mistress, had officially invited Mesa to join the Frozen Cloud Asgard as its first male disciple. Naturally, Mesa accepted and thus became the first male member of the Frozen Cloud Asgard. And that was how Mesa Uchiha had actually achieved, what thousands of men had dreamt of. He is now the only male member in a completely female sect.

"So, now that I am a member of the Frozen Cloud Asgard. What does the Frozen Cloud Asgard require of me and what will I receive?" Asked Mesa.

"Now that you have joined my Asgard, you do not need to do anything in particular. In fact, you do not even need to follow the sectoral rules. You do not need to stay within the Frozen Cloud Asgard all the time either and you can come and go as you wish. What The Frozen Cloud Asgard requires of you are two things. Firstly, is to not do anything that would tarnish the Frozen Cloud Asgard's name. Secondly…" Said Feng Qianhui as her face suddenly took on a very serious expression. "Someday, if the Frozen Cloud Asgard faces a calamity. As a disciple of the Frozen Cloud Asgard, you are required to defend Frozen Cloud Asgard with all your strength."

Listening attentively up to this point, Mesa raised his head and looked Feng Qianhui dead in the eyes: "That is quite lenient for someone who just joined your sect."

"Indeed." Said Feng Qianhui shaking her head in amus.e.m.e.nt before she resumed: "As for what you will receive. You may study all profound arts of my Asgard, including Frozen Cloud Arts, Frozen Heart Arts, Frozen Snow Dance Steps, Frozen Cloud Thirteen Sword Styles, as well as Frozen End Divine Arts! I will allow you to use sectoral resources as you wish, and you may also enter and exit the sect's forbidden grounds freely! If you are to face a crisis, or have matters that cannot be resolved, the sect will assist you the best we can as well."

As she said this, Mesa and the rest of the ladies sitting in the room were quiet and looking at Feng Qianhui with empty eyes. Pretty soon, Feng Qianhui coughed a bit embarrassingly in her hand and continued on: "That is if you weren't a total monster that has no need for the Frozen Cloud Arts. But has in fact made it worse by creating an entirely new Profound Art that has made the Frozen Cloud Arts, and I say this with a lot of pain in my heart, obsolete."

Hearing Feng Qianhui say this, it made Gong Yuxian, who has been silently and attentively listening this whole time, downcast.

"So I take it you want me to go and make the True Ice Arts available for the rest of the disciples of the Frozen Cloud Asgard to learn." Said Mesa, this whole time he stayed professional and didn't let any smugness or arrogance shine through.

"Yes. I would very much like for you to make the True Ice Arts available for all the disciples of the Frozen Cloud Asgard to learn. And as proof of you joining the Frozen Cloud Asgard, take this." Said Feng Qianhui, taking out a crystal from her storage ring, she threw it towards Mesa, who caught it in his hands. The moment it made contact with his skin, it dissolved into him.

"This is my Asgard's unique 'Frozen Cloud Soul Crystal', with the Frozen Cloud Soul Crystal on you, you are now my Frozen Cloud Asgard's official disciple! At the same time, the Frozen Cloud Soul Crystal of every single Frozen Cloud disciple will sense one another. This is the identification as my Asgard's disciple, as well as to distinguish fellow sect members! The Frozen Cloud Soul Crystal doesn't cause any harm to the body. If you wish to leave Frozen Cloud Asgard one day, you can erase it at any time."

"Hmm… very well then. Guess I am an official disciple from here on out." Said Mesa nodding along, before his whole demeanor suddenly changed and he looked Feng Qianhui once again dead in the eyes: "Now that I am an official disciple, I have one question I would like to ask. Earlier, you said that as a disciple, I must come and help the Frozen Cloud Asgard if calamity strikes. But the way you said it, made it seem like it is not a matter of 'if' calamity strikes, but 'when'. What is this calamity you are talking about?"

Feng Qianhui went silent for a bit, then spoke with a solemn expression: "I heard that two years ago at the Blue Wind Ranking Tournament, one of the Four Great Sacred Grounds, Mighty Heavenly Sword Region's elder Ling Kun, had taken the initiative in inviting you to join Mighty Heavenly Sword Region. You did not give an answer at the time, but had still kept Ling Kun's sound transmission imprint. I want to know, in the future, will there be the possibility of you joining Mighty Heavenly Sword Region?"

��Absolutely not!" Said Mesa immediately dismissing the very notion of him ever joining the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region, surprising Feng Qianhui greatly: "And the first reason for that is quite simple. I cannot, in good conscience, join the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region or any one of the other Sacred Grounds, while I am working very hard to make the Frozen Cloud Asgard as strong as one of the Sacred Grounds."

"The second reason that I will not join the Mighty Heavenly Sword or one of the other Sacred Grounds, is that I rescued the 'demon' that was sealed underneath the Mighty Heavenly Sword Villa." Said Mesa nonchalantly, much to their horror.

"What! You seriously did that?! Then where is that demon? Once they find him and they find out what you did, they will hunt you down with everything they have!"

"Yeah I rescued him. Turns out, that 'demon' was the biological grandfather of Yun Che, whom Xia Qingyue was married to for a few days as per the agreement between their fathers. As for where he is." Said Mesa with a smug grin on his face as he turned to Xia Qingyue: "Qingyue, remember during that time that we were in the Heaven Secret Basin Realm and we were transported to the Azure Cloud Continent."

"Yes." Said Xia Qingyue carefully before the realization sinked in: "You teleported him to the Azure Cloud Continent, didn't you?"

"Correct you are. As is Yun Che himself. So now that that's out of the way, allow me to tell you reason number three. The fact that I have both the Boosted Gear and Mjolnir, makes it so that any Sacred Ground would immediately try to take it from me. And even if they try to reassure me that they won't and they are solely interested in me because of my talents, I still would not believe them. So in short, I have thrown in my lot with all of you, rescued one of their most valuable prisoners and I do not believe that they will not hurt me once they get their hands on me." Said Mesa, stunning Feng Qianhui and the others into silence.

"But Grand Asgard Mistress, there must be a reason why you asked me specifically about the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region. Am I right?"

Feng Qianhui glanced at Mesa for a few moments before a trace of a smirk adorned her face: "You are quite perceptive I see. But the answer to your question is yes. There is a specific reason as to why I specifically asked you about the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region. But before I answer that question, let me ask you another one. Did you know that more than a thousand years ago, there were not four, but five Sacred Grounds?"

Acting surprised, with his eyebrows raised: "Ohh… I didn't know that. What happened then 1000 years ago for there to be Four Sacred Grounds instead of five?"

"Thousand years ago, other than the Absolute Monarch Sanctuary, Supreme Ocean Palace, Sun Moon Divine Hall, and the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region, the Profound Sky Continent still had another Sacred Ground level force. Its name was 'Eternal Night Royal Family'. These five great forces were called the Five Great Sacred Grounds."

And thus Feng Qianhui started telling Mesa the story about the Eternal Night Royal Family, the former Fifth Sacred Ground and how it met its end. Among the Five Great Sacred Grounds, the Eternal Night Royal Family was the only family-oriented force. Unless they have taken in a wife, they would never recruit outsiders. Making them the most firmly united force within the Five Great Sacred Grounds. They have the weakest strength in the five sacred grounds as the other four Sacred Ground heads acknowledge that the Eternal Night King the ruler of the Eternal Night Royal Family is weaker than them. Even though there may have been some friction amongst the Five Great Sacred Grounds, there had never been any grievances.

But after Xuanyuan Wentian, the current sword master of the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region assumed his position he tricked the other Great Sacred Grounds into exterminating them under the pretense of protecting the Profound Sky Continent. It was after dozens of years after he assumed his position, that on one day, the villages and towns that were in the vicinity of the Eternal Night Royal Family were suddenly eradicated by a black mist. And everyone knew that the Eternal Night Royal Family practiced in a profound art, the Eternal Night Illusory God Record, that released this black mist upon its activation. And the first one who raised its voice, saying that the 'Eternal Night Royal Family' was a sinful devil clan who increased their devil powers by massacring innocents. Then, in the name of protecting the Profound Sky Continent and eliminating evil, they allied with the other three sacred grounds and annihilated the Eternal Night Royal Family. Even though the Eternal Night Royal Family was powerful, they simply were not able to withstand the combined forces of the four great sacred grounds and were ultimately exterminated. At the very end, only the king of the Eternal Night Royal Family was left, and under his extreme resentment and sorrow, he suddenly turned into a devil. This was all so that Xuanyuan Wentian could steal the Heavenly Sin Divine Sword from the Eternal Night Royal Family.

And Xuanyuan Wentian himself is a very ambitious man, who won't stop at nothing to be the strongest and solely rule over the entire Profound Sky Continent. The Heavenly Sin Divine Sword is a divine sword the Eternal Night Royal Family had been guarding for many generations and is the only 'Sovereign Profound Sword', the 'Monarch of Swords' within the Sky Profound Continent. It was rumored that the force that could control the Heavenly Sin Divine Sword would be unrivaled within the Profound Sky Continent. And with Xuanyuan Wentian's extremely ambitious character, he framed the Eternal Night Royal Family and tricked the other Sacred Grounds into helping him exterminate it. And since then the Heavenly Sin Divine Sword had vanished without a trace.

Listening attentively to Feng Qianhui tell her story, Mesa couldn't help but start to snicker when she stated that the Heavenly Sin Divine Sword was the only Sovereign Profound Sword in the Profound Sky Continent and that it has been unrivaled up until now. Even Xia Qingyue couldn't help herself but develop a smirk on her face. When Feng Qianhui asked what was so funny, Mesa told her why was laughing.

"I'm so sorry Grand Asgard Mistress, I am not laughing at the tragedy of the Eternal Night Royal Family, I am laughing at the fact that you call the Heavenly Sin Divine Sword the only Sovereign Profound Sword and unrivaled in the entire Profound Sky Continent."

Feng Qianhui got suspicious seeing Mesa suddenly laugh like that, even more when Xia Qingyue was smirking. And so, with an eyebrow raised in suspicion, she asked: "Y-yyyeahhh… I did. Because no other sword or weapon has shown up that could rival it."

"And that is where you are wrong Grand Asgard Mistress. For you see, a weapon has shown up that not only rivals the power of the Heavenly Sin Divine Sword, but absolutely dwarfs it. And that weapon is…" Said Mesa in a very grandeur way, as he held out his hand, where a second later Mjolnir appears in. "Mjolnir, The hammer of the God of Thunder Thor. This is a weapon that absolutely dwarfs the power of the Heavenly Sin Divine Sword. And I am the only one capable of using it."

Feng Qianhui eyes just bulged out in shock, as did Gong Yuxian's. But before any of them could mount a response, Mesa cut them off once again to shock them even more: "But that is not all! For I too have a sword, two actually, that absolutely dwarf the power of the Heavenly Sin Divine Sword. In fact, they are just as powerful, if not more powerful, then Mjolnir."

And after placing down Mjolnir, he stood up. And standing in a truly fabulous pose, that would even make Dio Brando and every other JoJo character jealous, he took out two swords. In his left hand was the Yamato and in his right hand was Excalibur. Releasing just a tiny amount of their power was enough to make everyone present, except Xia Qingyue who was still smirking, heart skip a beat.

"In my left hand, I have the Yamato, the dark forged blade and the most powerful demonic blade there is. In my right hand, I have Excalibur, the most powerful holy sword of them all. And it was with this sword that I had slain the Lich King that had appeared in the Heaven Secret Basin Realm and threatened to destroy the entire world."

Feng Qianhui, Gong Yuxian, Chu Yuechan and Chu Yueli were looking on with wide open jaws and very big shock written all over their faces. And in a bit of uncharacteristic behavior, Xia Qingyue said: "Aaaaaaaaand… cue the shock!"

"WWWWWWWHHHHHHAAAAAAAT!!!!"
