Chapter 467: A Glimpse of the Future

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“In my lifetime, I once glimpsed a corner of the future. The person who was supposed to appear here should have been a prodigy from the ancient royal family named Long Aotian, but for some reason, it has become the two of you. Perhaps… all of this is predestined, but I failed to see through the celestial secrets.” The projection of the World-Transcending Sword Master fell into silence for a while, shook his head slightly, and spoke with a somewhat lamenting expression.

When alive, he had been very proud, boasting of mastery in alchemy, weapon refinement, divine powers, spells, formations, and the divination of heavenly secrets – claiming to have dabbled in all the unorthodox ways of this world. Yet never had he expected that after death, he would be proven wrong! That in deducing the workings of heaven, he had miscalculated!

The one who should have come here was Long Aotian. But instead of him, two young human prodigies had appeared. Moreover, these two held exceptional potential, each greater than the last. The girl especially, with her Four Spirit Sacred Body – a physique exceptionally rare even among humans. If she were to inherit his mantle, why should the title of World-Transcending Sword Master not strike awe across the myriad worlds?

“Senior, what caused your downfall?” Su Chen asked, consumed by curiosity. He was desperate to know how a mighty figure like the World-Transcending Sword Master had met his end. fre enovelkiss.com

“Well…” The projection gave a helpless shake of his head, spreading empty hands. “To be frank, even I remain unsure. As you see me now, a mere projection separate from the body, my knowledge is limited. I can only sense that my true form no longer resides in this world. As for the exact cause of my demise, that unfortunately lies beyond my ken. All that remains is to carry out the final wishes of that body – to seek the successor it had appointed. Yet the one my body had chosen failed to appear. Instead, you two are the first I meet. A pity, however… There exists only one inheritance. Young friend, do you wish to take the title of my successor?”

In the end, the projection of the World-Transcending Sword Master had already focused his gaze on Su Chen. As for the person originally designated by the true form, he had been completely forgotten.

In his view, that so-called prodigy from the ancient royal family, Long Aotian, seemed to be somewhat disappointing. After all, in the glimpses of the future witnessed by the true form, the successor named Long Aotian was quite embarrassing. He was defeated by a human girl named Mu Qingxue. It was one thing to lose to a human, but the crucial point was that he was defeated by a girl!

And that was not the most humiliating part! The most embarrassing part was that he ultimately lost to another prodigy named Qin Hao. It was almost unbelievable.

The successor of the illustrious World-Transcending Sword Master actually consecutively lost to human prodigies. If this news spread, it might give the impression that the successor of the World-Transcending Sword Master was not that impressive.

Previously, he had intended to choose other successors. Unfortunately, the future was set from the moment you saw it. Even if he was unwilling, he could only watch as the inheritance was passed to the one named Long Aotian.

After all, he was just a projection, unable to defy the will of the true form!

However, what he never expected was that Long Aotian did not appear here. Instead, two human prodigies appeared first. This was a scene that had never appeared in the glimpses of the future!

Since these two individuals had appeared, the World-Transcending Sword Master had no reason not to seize the opportunity. After all, the talents of these two individuals before him were quite remarkable. If he could pass on the inheritance to one of them, perhaps everything in the future could change! The prestige of this title, World-Transcending Sword Master, might reach unprecedented heights.

The words had Su Chen stunned, unable to react at first. But swiftly he collected himself, responding without hesitation, “Hm? Oh, yes!”

He threw a glance to his side, where Ye Ruxue’s pretty face had tightened in disappointment. But she recovered quickly, gracing him with a smile that seemed to eclipse all else within the cave. “Congratulations,” she offered sincerely.

To have the inheritance snatched from before her – there couldn’t be no regret. She had risked life and limb, spared no effort navigating her way here, only to have her prize claimed by another. By Su Chen, no less.

Yet clarity came just as quickly. Back then, why had she concocted this entire scheme for the World-Transcending Sword Master’s inheritance? Was it not to empower herself, so that she might repay Su Chen for his lifelong care and protection? To shore up her weakness by seizing control of other power bases? By leading him here now, had she not already fulfilled that original intention… if only in part?

In the process, however, her own role had proven far less significant than anticipated. Rather, there were many instances where she still relied upon Su Chen’s intervention.

This thought drew a helpless sigh from deep within. To think – an immortal king reborn, gifted with powers of precognition, yet at every turn suppressed by Su Chen! It boggled her mind.

Could he also be… a reincarnator? As the notion struck her, she snuck a long look in his direction before dismissing it as fancy.

Just then, Su Chen laughed. “What nonsense,” he chided gently. “You and I are one. There is no need for such thoughts.”

“Humph! Always teasing me!” Ye Ruxue shot back, cheeks reddening as she avoided his gaze.

Su Chen opened his mouth to continue his playful provocation, but the World-Transcending Sword Master’s projection chose that moment to interrupt with an awkward cough. Taking the hint, Su Chen decided to postpone any further flirting.

The World-Transcending Sword Master fidgeted, rubbing at his nose. “Enough. If you two wish to banter and romance, there will be time later – after inheriting my legacy! My presence here already grows thin. Let us waste no further time!”

Here he fell silent, staring at Su Chen before him..
