Most of them had stayed at Sword God Mountain for a long time, as short as ten years, as long as several centuries.
They had long regarded this place as ’home’.
Now that a new master suddenly appeared at ’home’, they were shocked and a bit fearful.
If possible, no one wished to leave here.
They discussed for a long time and finally found a proper solution... Googlᴇ search 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝕟𝕖𝕥
At the peak of Sword God Mountain.
While Chang Qing and others were chatting idly, a number of Sword Cultivators with powerful auras suddenly arrived.
"I am Li Jin, paying respects to Sword God Su."
An elder with white hair and beard, enveloped in the aura of a Great Saint, slowly ascended to the peak and bowed respectfully to Chang Qing.
"Senior, there’s no need for formality, feel free to speak your mind."
Chang Qing waved his large sleeve, endless Sword Intent flowed gently, helping the elder to stand.
This display left Li Jin and the attending Sword Cultivators in awe.
Meanwhile, Su Moyan and the others beside him looked curiously at these formidable Sword Cultivators.
They didn’t understand the intentions of these people.
"Since it is so, I will speak directly."
Li Jin smiled wryly and said, "Sword God Su, how do you plan to settle Sword God Mountain?"
These words momentarily stunned Chang Qing.
He had not considered this issue before.
"Sword God Su, we are all considered old-timers of Sword God Mountain."
Li Jin gestured to the dozen or so formidable Sword Cultivators behind him and sighed:
"For the sake of delving into the Sword Dao, we have been here for many years, long treating Sword God Mountain as our own place."
"But the rightful master of ’home’ has returned, causing us unease and fear."
"I came here with one question... can we... still continue to stay here?"
The many Sword Cultivators present did not speak, but their bright eyes were full of hope.
Chang Qing was rendered speechless for a moment, lost in thought.
At this moment, Er Niu quietly approached and transmitted, "Sword God Mountain has avoided chaos in the past."
"Precisely because they maintained a simple order from the shadows."
"Most of these people are devoted to the Dao, if possible, it might be wise to accept them."
Chang Qing’s heart stirred, and he looked at the dozen Sword Cultivators before him.
"Sword God Su, I wonder if I should speak a certain thing." Li Jin suddenly said.
"There’s no harm," Chang Qing nodded.
At this moment, all the Sword Cultivators on Sword God Mountain, no matter what they were doing, quietly gathered at the foot of the mountain.
They looked up at the peak, nervously watching the two sides of the conversation.
Whether they could continue to cultivate at Sword God Mountain depended on this moment.
"Sword God Su, youthful and promising, stands at the pinnacle of the Sword Dao."
"Though we may be older by several years, we are wholeheartedly convinced."
Li Jin’s sincere voice echoed, "Sword Emperor’s legacy, we have never heard of before."
"Yet what we witnessed today is extraordinary, inspiring our hearts."
"And a single lineage cannot be continued by the strength of one or two people alone."
Li Jin’s words became extremely solemn, and at his advanced age, he knelt on one knee on the spot, holding a sword in both hands, lowered his head, and spoke in a loud voice:
"We beg Sword God Su, to establish a legacy, to be a guiding light for the world’s Sword Dao!"
Following Li Jin’s lead, the dozen or so formidable Sword Cultivators present all paid homage with the grand ceremonies of Sword Cultivators.
They knelt on one knee, held their swords in both hands, lowered their heads, and earnestly cried out:
"We beg Sword God Su, to establish a legacy, to be a guiding light for the world’s Sword Dao!"
The vast voice resonated across the peak, and it also reached the ears of the many Sword Cultivators anxiously waiting at the foot of the mountain.
Upon hearing these words, their eyes brightened, without any hesitation, the dense crowd collectively knelt down.
Kneeling on one knee, holding swords in both hands, lowering their heads, their united shouts resounded through heaven and earth, stirring the winds and clouds for miles.
"We beg Sword God Su, to establish a legacy, to be a guiding light for the world’s Sword Dao!"
