Chapter 59 - Try me

Jean: Heavenly Sword Villa?

Cang Wanhe: The Blue Wind Imperial Family and the Heavenly Sword Villa were established on the same day of the same year. Our ancestor and the founder of the Heavenly Sword Villa were like blood brothers with different surnames.

After the Blue Wind Imperial Family came into power, they had continuously promoted the Heavenly Sword Villa with all of its efforts; straight until it became Blue Wind Empire's number one sect. And the Heavenly Sword Villa, has always existed as the guardians of the imperial family.

Although through the passage of time, the relationship between the imperial family and Heavenly Sword Villa has gradually become distant, some agreements, have never been broken.

They will not get involved with movements within the Imperial Family, but if an external force threatened the Imperial Family, they will step in. Also, if We were to die from ȧssassination or poison, they will definitely mobilize and investigate it thoroughly to the end.

Jean: I thought they had equal powers.

Cang Wanhe: Perhaps you didn't know of this. Even though they have been named the Four Major Sects, in theory, the combined strength of Frozen Cloud Asgard, Xiao Sect and the Burning Heaven Clan cannot compare to the Heavenly Sword Villa.

Although the Heavenly Sword Villa is jointly named with them, its level actually completely surpasses theirs. Moreover, the Heavenly Sword Villa's background, would cause the other three great sects to tremble with fear.

Jean: Background? There is actually someone behind them?

Cang Wanhe: Have you heard of the 'Four Great Sacred Grounds' of the Profound Sky Continent?

Jean: ...But aren't the Four Great Sacred Grounds things of legends? Could it be that they actually exist?

Cang Wanhe: Haha, if we talk about levels, the Four Great Sacred Grounds are indeed legends, so much so that their existence is like myth. Even We, do not qualify to approach that level, or even have the qualifications of hoping for it.

Our Blue Wind Empire's Four Major Sects, in front of the Four Great Sacred Grounds, are like ants. If the Four Great Sacred Grounds are willing, destroying the Profound Sky Continent's seven empires would be be no obstacle.

Jean: There's still actually… this sort of existence. So the Heavenly Sword Villa's background is one of the Four Great Sacred Grounds?

Cang Wanhe: Right. Absolutely Monarch Sanctuary,

the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region,

Sun Moon Divine Hall,

and the Supreme Ocean Palace…

these are the names of the Profound Sky's Four Great Sacred Grounds. Because they exist for their duty of 'guardian', they will never participate or meddle in the internal struggles of the seven empires.

As for the Heavenly Sword Villa, they have a relationship with the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region of the Four Great Sacred Grounds because the founder of the Heavenly Sword Villa, was also the oldest son of a certain senior practitioner of the Sovereign Profound Realm.

But because his aptitude was too poor, he had no qualifications to stay in the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region. As a result, he was expelled, and later on established the Heavenly Sword Villa on this piece of land.

The sword arts that the Heaven Sword Villa uses, also possesses a shadow of the 'Mighty Heavenly Sword Arts'.

Jasmine: *Sigh* So you want to surpass them too?

Jean: Heh, it will be interesting. Well then, I excuse myself fo-

At this time, the middle-aged eunuch hurriedly walked in, and said with a bowed head.

?: Reporting to Your Majesty and… Princess Cang Yue… Heavenly Sword Villa's Young Villa Master Ling Yun, is requesting an audience; he is currently waiting in the Blue Cloud Hall.

Cang Wanhe: Oh?

Jean: The Heavenly Sword Villa? …*Sigh* Hey Senior Sister, can you stop hugging my foot?

Jean looked down and finally Lan Xueruo's existence was recognized from the entire world, she was currently crying tears of joy while hugging Jean's right leg.

Lan Xueruo: T-Thank you, Jean… Thank you for everything…

Jean: You can thank me later, you have guests.

She immediately stood up and fixed herself, some time later she was back to her usual self.

Lan Xueruo: Ahem, alright I will go to see the guests. Should I bring up the matter of the parasite?

Cang Wanhe: ...Not now. We can't alarm Gu Qiuhong right now.

Lan Xueruo: I understand. Then, good day, Father… I am really glad that you are cured.

Cang Wanhe: Heh, me too.

Then Lan Xueru walked out from the room, followed from Jean. In the hall, two people were already there waiting. One looked to be around twenty years of age, was clad in white without a speck of dust, and had an elegant expression.

He stood silently in front of a landscape painting, and seemed to be examining the meaning of the painting.

The other person looked to be fifteen or sixteen years old, and his expression slightly resembled that of the young man, but he still possessed a trace of childhood innocence. He was also clad in white clothing, but he wasn't as calm as the young man;

he was currently walking to and fro about the hall while looking in all directions, and seemed to be extremely curious about all aspects of the imperial palace.

?: Heavenly Sword Villa Ling Yun pays his respects to Princess Cang Yue.

At the same time, his gaze landed on Jean, and politely smiled at him. Jean was a bit surprised from this and turned back the smile, before analyzing the man in front of him. There wasn't a single trace of arrogance or air of haughtiness, it was as if he looked at Jean, who was an "Unremarkable" person, as someone around his level.

Lan Xueruo: Big brother Yun. It's been a long time since we last met, I didn't think you would actually personally visit.

Ling Yun: It has been almost two and a half years since I last met Princess Cang Yue at the Blue Wind Ranking Tournament. To be able to witness Princess Cang Yue's noble appearance once again, is my, Ling Yun's fortune…

*Whoosh*

As Ling Yun was speaking, the youngster accompanying him scuttled over and cried out in surprise while staring at Lan Xueruo.

?: You're the legendary Blue Moon Princess? Whoa whoa whoa! Big Bro, this Princess Sis is even more beautiful than you described!

Ling Yun: Little Jie, don't be rude! Princess, this is my younger brother Ling Jie. He's just fifteen and a half this year, and is young and inexperienced. He also rarely leaves the Heavenly Sword Villa so he doesn't quite understand etiquette; I hope Princess won't take offense.

Lan Xueruo: I-

Ling Jie: Hey, Big Bro! I'm almost sixteen, and I'm already an ȧduŀt; how am I young and inexperienced! Princess Sis's incredible beauty goes without saying, I didn't say anything wrong.

Those words made Lan Xueruo smile, and said in a playful mocking manner.

Lan Xueruo: Little brother Ling Jie, Big Sister thanks you for your praise; you're also very cute too. When you grow up, many little sisters will definitely be attracted to you.





Ling Jie: Princess Sis, not only are you very beautiful, even your voice is very pleasant to hear… Ah, right! Princess Sis, marry me and be my wife, okay?

Jean: Pfft…

If it was anyone else, Jean would have used "Love" on them, but this little brat was as innocent as a damned puppy! Unlike what one would expect from normal people, who would have an ȯbsċėnė expression, this guy just lovestruck…

Ling Yun: Little Jie! Don't speak nonsense! You're offending the Princess; if you mess around anymore, I won't bring you out next time. Your highness, Little Jie is still young and babbles a lot of nonsense; please do not take offense.

Ling Jie: I'm not babbling nonsense! And I've already said so many times, I'm not young anymore; don't treat me like a little child. I'm almost sixteen, even Father said that I can make my own decisions now.

I want Princess Sis to be my wife, and I'm being very serious; I'm not babbling nonsense at all! Mother also explicitly warned me before that if I meet a girl that I like, I must say it out loud, so no one else can snatch her away.

And just now, Princess Sis said I was very cute; maybe Princess Sis really likes me too and will immediately consent... Princess Sis, isn't that right?

Jean's eyes twitched again and shielded Lan Xueruo.

Jean: Little brother Ling Jie, you might as well give up. Your Princess Sis won't be able to agree to you.

Ling Jie's gaze turned to Jean in a moment and stared at him cluelessly.

Ling Jie: Ah? Why?

Jean: The reason is very simple. I got first.

Lan Xueruo's pink lips opened, yet she didn't speak. Meanwhile, her face started to glow red.

Ling Jie: Y-y-y-y-you actually dare to take my Princess Sis's hand! How are you fit for Princess Sis; you're so weak, and you're not even as good-looking as me… I want to fight you! To take back my Princess Sis.

Jean was really calm, and answered with a smile on his face.

Jean: Try me.
