Chapter 139 - Master Wants To Set Up A Sect?

"Sulan, I have something to discuss with you after this training." Jiu Shen said as he glanced at Lu Sulan. He planned to integrate the Ice Cloud Sword Sect in the sect that he will be establishing in the future. He wanted to discuss it with Lu Sulan and see if she could somehow manage to gain the elders’ approval.

Lu Sulan was confused but she still nodded her head after seeing the serious look of Jiu Shen.

"Okay, before I end today’s training, I will tell you about the five levels of Sword Comprehension:

1st Level: Sword Intent Manifestation

2nd Level: Sword Ray Manipulation

3rd Level: Heart of Sword

4th Level: Birth of Sword Soul

5th Level: Extreme Sword Dao

Since none of you has achieved Sword Comprehension, so I will only talk about the first level, Sword Intent Manifestation." Jiu Shen recalled his Baleful Dragon Sacred Sword and it turned into a small wisp of black smoke before it went back to his right arm in the form of a dragon tattoo.

Everyone was amazed when they saw that especially the young slaves that joined the discussion.

Jiu Shen remained unperturbed when he saw their surprise and continued his discussion. "The first level of Sword Comprehension is the first step for a sword cultivator in his path towards the peak of swordsmanship..."

Everyone attentively listened and no one dared to make a sound, afraid that it might affect the others. At times, they displayed perplexed looks, but later on, it was as if they had gained some sort of minor understanding of the first level of Sword Comprehension.

After Jiu Shen finished his discussion, everyone was still wearing thoughtful looks on their faces, so he calmly waited for them to digest everything that he said. He only told them the possible ways to learn Sword Comprehension and he didn’t tell them how he did it himself since everyone’s sword path was different.

Not long later, everyone recovered from their usual state and they could not help but glance at Jiu Shen in worship. After listening to his teachings, they felt that it wouldn’t be long for them to reach the first level of Sword Comprehension.

"Everyone except Lu Sulan can go now. Remember that we will meet at the same time tomorrow. That’s it, leave." Jiu Shen waved his right hand and gestured for everyone to leave.

They bowed respectfully at Jiu Shen before disappearing from the scene. Now, only Lu Sulan was left standing in front of Jiu Shen.

The latter took out a chair from his space earring and gestured for Lu Sulan to sit down. "Sulan, take a seat."

"Thank you, master." She bowed her head gently before she sat down.

"You might be curious as to why I’ve asked you to stay behind." Jiu Shen smiled at her.

Lu Sulan nodded her head and she felt slightly embarrassed when she stared at her master’s mesmerizing eyes. It was so enthralling that she was almost lost in the depts of his gaze.

"Sulan, I’m planning to establish a sect." Jiu Shen’s voice was calm, but his words stunned his disciple greatly. Lu Sulan thought that Jiu Shen had no ambition whatsoever and merely wanted to live an isolated and peaceful life, so when she heard that Jiu Shen wanted to set up his own sect, she was shocked.

"Master, why do you want to set up a sect? Are you perhaps planning to dominate the Profound Dragon Continent?" Lu Sulan’s eyes widened as she asked that, but she sounded as if was a natural thing to say. She believed in Jiu Shen’s strength, and if he truly wanted to rule the entirety of the Profound Dragon Continent, Lu Sulan was certain that her master had the ability to do so.

At first, Jiu Shen wanted to say no, but after thinking it through, he replied with a smile on his face. "Who knows..."

Lu Sulan was speechless at this, but at least, there was a possibility that Jiu Shen was planning to do just that. Thinking about it, she felt a trace of anticipation growing inside her heart.

"Anyway, after establishing my sect, I hope you can integrate your Ice Cloud Sword Sect into mine, but of course, you still have to consult the opinions of the elders of your sect about this." Jiu Shen promptly added after seeing the dreamy expression of Lu Sulan.

"Master... The sect that you’re planning to establish..." When she heard Jiu Shen’s words, she instantly understood his intentions, but she was still surprised at his ambition.

Jiu Shen nodded his head with a calm look. "Indeed. The sect that I plan to set up isn’t just meant for the Profound Dragon Continent. I don’t have plans to remain in this world forever. I want to go back to the Primordial God Realm, but before I go there, I have to make some preparations."

Lu Sulan had many questions to ask but she didn’t know which one to say first, so she could only remain silent while staring at Jiu Shen’s indifferent look.

"I know you have a lot of questions, but it’s still too early for you to know everything. So for now, go back to your Ice Cloud Sword Sect and tell the elders of your sect about what we had discussed earlier. Also, don’t forget to tell the disciples of your sect to come here as soon as possible. As to where they will stay, I will give this task to you." Jiu Shen stood up from his seat and patted her head gently.

Lu Sulan bowed her head to hide her blushing cheeks, but she still answered in a small voice. "Yes, master. I will get this done immediately."

Jiu Shen nodded his head and smiled. "Don’t worry about your duties in the store, I’ll just ask the fifth princess to temporarily work for us since I know that you’ll be busy in the next few days."

Lu Sulan was speechless when she heard that. Her master actually wanted the most beloved daughter of Emperor Elyk to work in his store! If it was someone else, she might have scoffed in disdain, but Jiu Shen would definitely do as he said. "Master, will the emperor agree to this? After all, the fifth princess is the one he doted the most among his children." She asked with a wry smile.

Jiu Shen chuckled when he heard that. "Elyk will not decline it." He said confidently. This was also a chance for Elyk to strengthen his relationship with Jiu Shen, and knowing his brilliance, Jiu Shen was certain that Emperor Elyk won’t hesitate to send his daughter to him.

Sensing the confidence in her master’s voice, Lu Sulan no longer spoke and she just silently stared at his otherworldly visage with an infatuated look on her face.
