Truth Exposed, Empresses Beg for Forgiveness-Chapter 91: The Soul Hall Leaves No Trace! Jian Ling’Er’s Coming-of-Age Ceremony Begins Early? A Smile with Hidden Meaning!
"Every Sword Cultivator’s Sword Heart has its uniqueness, and it cannot be given to others..."
In five days’ time, the young Luo Xuan was in the Sword Spirit Library Pavilion’s third level where books about the Sword Heart and Sword Dao were.
He stayed there for two days straight.
After looking through them, he learned that a Sword Heart cannot be transferred to others like Double Pupils.
Everyone’s Sword Heart is unique.
Wang Teng, seeing this, couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He truly feared that the ancient Sword Spirit Race could give their Sword Heart to others.
Afraid that all of this was unlike what Jian Wuming had said before.
Now it seems, there should be no need to worry about this.
"As long as this Jian Ling’er doesn’t become the Sword Spirit Empress of the future.
In that case, the Sword Spirit Empress wouldn’t betray to the Celestial Emperor’s side like the Lixing Empress."
Thinking of this, Wang Teng couldn’t help but feel a bit pleased.
Feeling like he can now rest easy~
As the young Luo Xuan was flipping through the books on the third level, his understanding of the Sword Spirit Race became increasingly extensive.
"The Sword Spirit Race..."
Another two days passed.
The young Luo Xuan had gone through all the books related to the Sword Heart and Sword Dao on the third level.
He still couldn’t find a method to awaken the Sword Heart.
Pondering for a moment, he thought that the Sword Master Jian Kuanglan would personally try to awaken the Sword Heart for Jian Ling’er next.
There might be some secrets he doesn’t know about.
Perhaps, this problem could soon be resolved.
Thinking about it, the young Luo Xuan began to search through the third level’s books on the secret history of the various sects.
Wanting to find any records regarding the Soul Hall.
Two more days passed.
He had already finished reading all the secret history books of the various sects on the third level.
The result, however, still left his heart heavy.
Because among the vast amount of books on the Sword Spirit Race, with records of thousands of sects big and small,
there was not a single mention of a group called the Soul Hall!
"What exactly is the origin of this Soul Hall?"
The young Luo Xuan involuntarily furrowed his brows.
...
In the Celestial Emperor Palace, countless cultivators saw this scene.
In their hearts, they felt the same surprise and confusion.
"The Celestial Emperor has looked through all the books on the third level, yet he still hasn’t found any information about the Soul Hall?"
"The ancient Sword Spirit Race’s library is so vast, even my family’s ancestral sect is recorded in great detail, making me ashamed, yet there’s no record of this Soul Hall?"
"Even though I didn’t live through that era, and the Celestial Emperor’s rise was innumerable epochs before mine, I should have heard something."
"Soul Hall, Soul Hall... Why does this Soul Hall seem like it never existed in the river of time?"
Countless Quasi-Emperor level cultivators.
At this moment, they all felt a sense of bewilderment.
This Soul Hall, what kind of faction is it, that it hides so deeply?
In Wang Teng’s heart, there was nothing but immense satisfaction.
The Young Celestial Emperor still couldn’t determine who his enemies were, nor obtain any information about them.
The more this was the case, the more joyful Wang Teng’s heart became!
Wang Teng only wanted to see this deep hatred torment the Young Celestial Emperor for as long as possible!
...
In the image, the young Luo Xuan had gone through all the books on the third level of the Sword Spirit Library Pavilion.
Only the bottom two levels, which he hadn’t yet finished reading, were left.
The reading privilege in the Sword Spirit Library Pavilion, although not compatible upwards, was compatible downwards.
Previously, the qualification given to him by Jian Ling’er only allowed access to the first two levels of the library, without the privilege to step onto the third level.
But now, he could freely browse the first and second levels.
Even though he hadn’t finished reading the sect secrets on the first two levels, the young Luo Xuan would first finish reading the Sword Dao books he hadn’t completed last time.
The cultivators all understood immediately.
Until this moment, the Young Celestial Emperor had not given up.
Even if there was the slightest possibility, he still wanted to try and find a method to awaken the Sword Heart for Jian Ling’er!
Luo Xuan planned to leave at midday on the fifth day.
Jian Ling’er’s coming-of-age ceremony was scheduled for the hour of the Rooster, making midday timings entirely ample.
However, the young Luo Xuan still wanted to leave a little earlier if possible.
It had been almost five days since he last saw Jian Ling’er, and an uneasy feeling lingered in his heart.
If he could leave earlier, he would prepare to do so.
Yet on the morning of this fifth day, while the young Luo Xuan was still in the Sword Spirit Library Pavilion reading,
Jian Ling’er was in her room, waiting patiently for Luo Xuan’s return.
At this moment, she suddenly felt an overwhelmingly immense Sword Intent descend upon her, causing her to pause.
Upon stepping out of her room, she saw that it was Jian Kuanglan who had arrived!
"Greetings, Sword Master."
Jian Ling’er hurriedly saluted.
Jian Kuanglan gave a kindly smile.
"No need for formalities, Jian Ling’er. The hour of the Rabbit for your coming-of-age ceremony is nearing. Prepare yourself, and come to the front mountain."
This made Jian Ling’er more stunned.
The hour of the Rabbit?
Isn’t that almost here?
"Sword Master, wasn’t the coming-of-age ceremony set for the hour of the Rooster?"
Jian Ling’er couldn’t help but ask.
In previous years, the coming-of-age ceremony was always set for the hour of the Rooster.
Not just in previous years, but even this year, it was still set for the hour of the Rooster.
The information she received before returning to the Sword Spirit Race was just like this.
How did it suddenly change to the hour of the Rabbit now?
Changing from nighttime to early morning was a significant difference!
Jian Kuanglan’s face was gentle.
"Originally, it was indeed planned so, but this year after your coming-of-age ceremony, Jian Ling’er,
I, along with the Grand Elder, will attempt to awaken your Sword Heart.
This will be a very intricate process, requiring more time than usual. To prevent it from dragging late into the night, your ceremony was made earlier."
Only then did Jian Ling’er understand.
"So that’s how it is."
Jian Ling’er’s heart was suddenly tangled with thoughts.
"But Sword Master, I promised Mu... I mean, I promised Luo Xuan, to wait for him to return..."
Jian Kuanglan gave a gentle smile.
"But Jian Ling’er, the coming-of-age ceremony is not solely about you; other disciples are already waiting at the front mountain."
"This..."
Jian Ling’er found herself in a bit of a dilemma.
The Sword Master had already brought the ceremony date forward because of her; she couldn’t now ask others to wait any longer.
Especially not the Sword Master.
Jian Kuanglan chuckled softly.
"Moreover, Jian Ling’er, you say you made a promise with Young Friend Luo.
If you awaken your Sword Heart ahead of time, wouldn’t it be a wonderful surprise for him when he comes out of the Library Pavilion?"
Jian Ling’er seemed somewhat convinced.
"Then... let’s follow the Sword Master’s arrangements."
Though Jian Ling’er’s heart still hesitated.
But since the Sword Master came in person, there should be no issue.
Besides, she indeed didn’t have much right to refuse at this moment...
Jian Kuanglan watched Jian Ling’er, his smile grew.
"Alright, if you’re ready, let’s go. The other disciples from the clan are all prepared, we shouldn’t keep them waiting too long."
Jian Kuanglan’s smile became deeper, with a hint of hidden meaning.
