Wang Junze didn’t understand why they had to wait for rain. Could the next rain help him comprehend the Rain Sword Intent, and if there’s lightning, should he be able to comprehend the Thunder Sword Intent? Or if there’s a fire, can he comprehend the Fire Sword Intent?
This sounds quite unreliable!
However, since Su Yuwei said so, whether he understood it or not, Wang Junze had no choice but to wait.
Unable to make further progress in Sword Dao, even though he kept practicing, he found it difficult to improve, so Wang Junze decided to quit for the time being and walked out of the inn.
Some things cannot be solely based on what Su Yuwei said. Ultimately, he needed to hear and see for himself to know what was real.
Due to Luo Qingxuan’s arrival, Jubei City was bustling with people, and even passersby seemed to increase. Thinking it over, Wang Junze headed straight for the largest restaurant, the Moon Viewing Tower.
Although it was just past noon, the restaurant was still bustling with business. Wang Junze tipped the waiter generously and was reluctantly given a table in the corner. He ordered a pot of wine and sat down with two small dishes.
With many people, things seemed a bit chaotic.
People nearby chatted about all sorts of things, and Wang Junze was casually eavesdropping when he unexpectedly heard someone mention him.
"Hey, what do you think Wang Junze is thinking? I heard the Saintess personally invited him to join the Profound Moon Sword Sect, and he refused, saying he needed to think it over. Isn’t that too arrogant?"
"Really? Wang Junze, the wastrel from the Wang Family? Isn’t it said that his Innate Wasted Vein prevents him from cultivating?"
"Don’t talk nonsense, what Innate Wasted Vein? In the battle at the City Lord’s Mansion, Wang Junze fought Lin Yong, the second young master of the Lin Family, to a draw. It’s said he comprehended some Sword Intent, and it scared many people! Understand the Sword Path Genius? This wasn’t my statement; it was personally admitted by the Saintess."
"Hiss, now that you mention it, I recall it was said three years ago that he was a Sword Path Genius, but his Opening Veins failed. In hindsight, Wang Junze truly is a genius, enduring for three years, finally opened his veins, but it’s unknown how many. Do you think he refused to join the Profound Moon Sword Sect because he secretly opened too few veins, fearing exposure?"
"Come on, to draw with Lin Yong, however few veins he opened, he must have at least twenty or thirty, right?"
"Hah, for us, twenty or thirty is impressive, but in the Profound Moon Sword Sect, it’s nothing! I think it’s all hype; the Saintess couldn’t possibly fancy him. Otherwise, who could refuse to join the Profound Moon Sword Sect?"
Hearing these people mention him, Wang Junze couldn’t help but frown slightly.
Though they spoke incoherently, they roughly depicted the events of that day.
Realize that few were qualified to attend the City Lord’s Mansion banquet back then, yet news about him spread quickly. Could the news of the relic’s appearance really be hidden?
With many people talking, this wasn’t just hearsay. Jubei City is so large, it’s hard to say there aren’t spy networks of Deserters.
"Young Master Wang, my master invites you to a private room upstairs for a talk. Would it be convenient?"
Lingering between thoughts, a servant suddenly approached the table and quietly spoke.
"Who is your master?"
Slightly taken aback, Wang Junze asked. Follow current novᴇls on novelꜰire.net
Recognizing him didn’t surprise Wang Junze; after all, many people from the City Lord’s Mansion had seen him. But he had just arrived at the restaurant, and someone sought him so quickly, the speed felt excessively fast.
"My master’s surname is Tang, Tang Blade’s Tang."
Slightly bowing, the servant replied again.
Tang Blade is a very special type of blade; it has a straight and square body, also known as the Horizontal Blade.
Most importantly, in the Northern Domain, only one group uses this blade: disciples of the Divine Blade Sect.
The Divine Blade Sect in the Northern Domain is one of the sects with considerable strength, not comparable to the Profound Moon Sword Sect, but similar in power to the Cloud Mirror Sect where his sister Wang Xin joined.
Realizing they were related to the Divine Blade Sect, Wang Junze became slightly cautious.
However, since they found him, it was meaningless to refuse to meet. He might as well see what they wanted.
With this thought, Wang Junze immediately stood up and said, "Lead the way, please."
Following the servant, Wang Junze soon went up to the second floor and entered the private room.
"Haha, Young Master Wang, it’s an honor. I am Tang Mo, a disciple of the Divine Blade Sect. I invited you without prior notice; please don’t mind."
Upon entering the room, he saw a tall young man standing and laughing loudly.
"Brother Tang, you’re too polite. I have no ties with the Divine Blade Sect. I wonder what advice Brother Tang might offer?"
Wang Junze didn’t beat around the bush and directly asked.
"I don’t dare to give advice; I just wanted to meet Young Master Wang and make friends." Smiling, Tang Mo gestured for him to sit: "Let’s sit down and chat."
Speaking courteously, Wang Junze didn’t refuse and sat at the table.
The servant arranged the tableware for Wang Junze, poured wine, and then retreated, guarding the door outside.
