Chapter 307 - Divisions

Chapter 307 - Divisions

"The sect master is back!" An elder shouted in an excited tone when he saw the figure of Jiu Shen outside the sword tower.

After hearing the elder’s shout, everyone inside the sword tower immediately discarded what they were doing and went towards the entrance with eager faces. All of them wanted to see Jiu Shen. It was especially true for the new disciples. They wanted to see the rumored ’strongest expert’ of the Profound Dragon Continent!

"Look! It’s indeed the sect master!"

"Do you guys see the little girl beside the sect master? According to the elders of our clan, she is Nascent God Realm savage beast! She should be one of the peak experts of the sword tower! To think that such a strong savage beast actually has such a cute human form..."

"Who are those people behind them? They don’t look familiar."

"Brother Dante, do you know who the people behind Sect Master Jiu are?" Liu Mengdi who was among the crowd asked the young man beside him.

Prince Dante was pleased with how Liu Mengdi had called him. He pestered everyone to simply call him by his name since they were already sect brothers and sisters. At first, most of them felt awkward about it, but they all gradually became used to it.

Prince Dante shook his head and answered. "This is the first time I have seen them. However, I can’t sense their cultivation level at all no matter how many times I checked. They are not simple individuals."

With the prince’s strength, he was capable of sensing the cultivation levels of those who were even two major realms higher than him, but this time, he failed to discern the strength of the people behind Jiu Shen.

Liu Mengdi was shocked when he heard his reply. "With the sect master’s arrival, the fate of the Crimson Sun Sect might already be set in stone. If he plans to send the peak experts of the sword tower to eliminate them, then their only choice to survive is to leave the continent."

Prince Dante nodded his head upon hearing those words, but he soon shook his head. "I’m not certain about that. The sect master has always been unpredictable. He might not even place the Crimson Sun Sect in his eyes and disregard them completely." He smiled wryly.

Hearing that, Liu Mengdi was at loss for words. That might really happen.

"Greetings, Sect Master Jiu!"

"Greetings, Elder Theia!"

Everyone greeted Jiu Shen and Theia the moment their group came inside the sword tower. As for Ice who was ignored, she pouted in dissatisfaction while glaring at everyone.

Looking at her expression, Jiu Shen patted her small head. He then stared at the elders and disciples of his sect with a calm look as he said. "During my absence here, I visited the Divine Beast Continent to do something. I also got to know the people behind me from that place. All of them are savage beasts at the Nascent God Realm and from now on, they will become the eight guardians of our Heavenly Sword Tower."

Everyone was shocked when they heard Jiu Shen’s announcement. Those people behind him were actually Nascent God Realm savage beasts! And there were eight of them at that! Just how did the sect master manage to get them?

"Woah! Now our sect has eight new experts at the Nascent God Realm! We are invincible!"

"Great! Those people from the Crimson Sun Sect would definitely wet their pants if they hear about this! Hahaha!"

The elders and disciples were happy about this. Who doesn’t want their sect to become the strongest? From the looks of it, their Heavenly Sword Tower was bound to become the strongest holy land of cultivation in the whole Profound Dragon Continent for the next millennia to come.

Jiu Shen nodded in satisfaction when he saw the reactions of everyone. He already expected this to happen so he was not the least bit surprised.

Jiu Shen gazed at everyone and slowly said. "I will make a few announcements regarding the internal structure of our sect. The Heavenly Sword Tower has just begun its development and it is still in its infancy. The sect does not even have its own divisions yet, so I might as well promote a few people here to lead these departments."

He had already planned this beforehand, but because of the recent issues, he could only apply it now.

The eyes of the elders brightened when they heard Jiu Shen’s words. All of them wanted to be promoted since that would mean a more stable supply of cultivation resources for them. Although they already had a lot as elders of the sword tower, getting a few more would make their progress increase a lot.

Looking at their expressions full of anticipation, Jiu Shen continued in a calm voice. "The first person that I’m going to announce is Ren Shuang. He will become the head of the Punishment Division. The role of this depart is to enforce the law among the members of our sect."

After he announced that, Jiu Shen took out a robe that was prepared beforehand. It was a robe that was completely black and the emblem of the Heavenly Sword Tower was also drawn at the back of the robes. Other than that, there was also the words ’Punishment Division’ written on the upper right side of the robes.

"Ren Shuang, step forward and receive your new robes."

This was merely part of formality, but Jiu Shen wanted to emphasize this so that everyone would know the importance of each division.

Swoosh.

Ren Shuang silently appeared in front of Jiu Shen, stunning the crowd of elders and disciples. They did not even discover his presence and they only saw him when he revealed himself.

"Isn’t he the guy protecting the second floor of the wine store?"

"Yeah, it looks like him."

Ren Shuang kneeled with one knee and paid his respects to Jiu Shen.

After getting his new robes, Ren Shuang vanished once again.
