Chapter 2603: The Sword Sect is Shocked
Baili He was stunned when he received the news. However, after recalling the miracles achieved by Yu Yinnuo, and now hearing about Wen Jianjue’s miracle, he felt no surprise.
"It is indeed a huge favor we owe them. Master, should I go out to thank them?" Baili He asked seriously after thinking it over.
Although he did not know how Yan Aohan had done it, the fact that Yan Aohan had come to their aid was absolute. Since they had accepted the favor, they naturally had to express their gratitude.
"I have thought about it. I plan to go personally," the Sword Sect Sect Leader said after a moment's reflection. "Although I do not know the origins of these two, they have the ability to do things we might not be able to do. Moreover, they truly helped our Sword Sect disciples. As the Sect Leader, if I do not go personally, I will feel uneasy."
The Sword Sect Sect Leader considered this and then said, "How about this? You come with me. Let your Uncle Yun help look after the sect's affairs temporarily."
Baili He nodded immediately. "Then I will go make arrangements now."
The Sword Sect Sect Leader hummed in agreement and sent Baili He to prepare.
After arranging the sect's matters, the Sword Sect Sect Leader and Baili She went to the Yan family. However, they did not see Wen Jianjue or Yu Yinnuo. Only Zhu Yanyi and her daughter, Mianmian, were playing in the Yan residence.
Zhu Yanyi raised her eyebrows slightly upon seeing Baili She, then smiled lightly. "They were taken away by my husband for special training. They will probably return tomorrow."
"Special training?" The Sword Sect Sect Leader was stunned, then hurriedly said, "Hello, Madam Yan. I am Chen Yijian, the Sect Leader of the Sword Sect."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Yanyi understood Chen Yijian’s situation. Chen Yijian was considered a master of swordsmanship and had devoted her heart and blood to the Sword Sect. Among the top ten sects in the cultivation world, Chen Yijian’s cultivation was top-tier, and her sense of responsibility toward the sect was absolutely first-class.
"Hello, Sect Leader Chen," Zhu Yanyi nodded slightly, then added, "This was their request. When my brother successfully reached the Foundation Establishment stage, Yu Yinnuo hoped to reach Foundation Establishment as soon as possible. But as you know, although cultivation defies heaven, it does not mean you can obtain heavenly-defying results by just lying down."
Zhu Yanyi placed Mianmian on a blanket and took out many toys for her to play with, then continued, "To break through, one must put in efforts that others cannot imagine. Yu Yinnuo hoped I would give her pills, but no matter how good any pill is, it is not a good thing. I do not like using pills to stack up a person’s cultivation. So, I asked my Dao companion to help them with special training. The reason they successfully reached Foundation Establishment and formed their Golden Cores smoothly is because of this special training. Now that they have tasted the benefits, they are pestering my husband to continue the training to consolidate their cultivation."
Hearing this, the Sword Sect Sect Leader became even more curious about the special training. "I wonder where this special training takes place. May I watch?"
Zhu Yanyi smiled lightly. "I am not very clear about where the special training takes place. However, when they return tomorrow, whether you can watch or participate, you can ask my husband directly then."
The Sword Sect Sect Leader found Zhu Yanyi’s words reasonable and nodded. "You are right. In that case, we will come again tomorrow. We will not disturb you today."
Zhu Yanyi nodded with a smile and watched them leave.
In fact, Zhu Yanyi had not expected that the special training they had set up out of boredom would actually attract the attention of the Sword Sect Sect Leader.
Of course, in Zhu Yanyi’s eyes, the Sword Sect Sect Leader was not particularly admirable. After all, although she had not yet become a god, she was already an Immortal Emperor. With one hand, she could destroy more than half of the cultivation world.
When the Sword Sect Sect Leader and Baili He visited the Yan family for the second time, it happened that Yan Aohan had just returned with Zhu Zhibin and the other two.
The three of them, including Zhu Zhibin, seemed a bit tired from the special training, but their mental state was quite good. The fatigue was merely a challenge to their physical limits.
"Senior Brother, Grandmaster Uncle, why are you here?" Yu Yinnuo asked with full of questions.
Wen Jianjue stepped forward and bowed. "Disciple pays respects to Grandmaster Uncle and Senior Brother."
The Sword Sect Sect Leader looked Wen Jianjue over and said, "I heard you successfully formed your Golden Core, so I came to see. How is the situation? Is it stable?"
"Very stable." A hint of joy appeared on Wen Jianjue’s face. Although Yan Aohan’s special training was truly painful, it was undeniable that this training was very suitable for him.
Yu Yinnuo said from the side, "Grandmaster Uncle, do you miss me so much?"
"I miss you my foot. I came because I was worried about Jianjue. I don’t worry about you at all." It was clear that the Sword Sect Sect Leader was very familiar with Yu Yinnuo’s personality.
Yu Yinnuo sighed. "I haven’t been back to the sect for that long, and Grandmaster Uncle, you are already tired of me and favoring the new?"
"Go away with your 'tired of the old and favoring the new'." The Sword Sect Sect Leader scolded with a laugh, looking Yu Yinnuo up and down. In his heart, he was secretly shocked. Yu Yinnuo’s cultivation foundation was extremely stable. Under such stable conditions, his cultivation had advanced so quickly that he could only sigh that it was a miracle.
After looking at Yu Yinnuo and Wen Jianjue, the Sword Sect Sect Leader turned to Yan Aohan and bowed deeply. "Although I do not know who you are, being able to protect these two disciples of my sect and allow them to develop like this, I, Chen Yijian, sincerely thank you, Daoist Friend. If you ever need help from our Sword Sect in the future, just say the word."
Yan Aohan looked at the Sword Sect Sect Leader deeply. "No need for excessive courtesy. I gave them special training only because they caught my eye."
The Sword Sect Sect Leader said seriously, "Precisely because you have no other intentions, our entire Sword Sect needs to express our gratitude." He pointed at Yu Yinnuo. "This child is a troublemaker in the sect. To be honest, I was truly uneasy about him going out for trials, so I let Wen Jianjue accompany him. Yet, things still went wrong. If it were not for your couple’s intervention, this child would have been ruined long ago."
Hearing this, Zhu Yanyi smiled and said, "Sect Leader Chen, you are too polite. I am a doctor, and a doctor’s duty is to save lives. Besides, she was lucky. If Wen Jianjue had not brought her here, I would not have intervened."
The Sword Sect Sect Leader said, "We cultivators value fate. That they were saved by your couple is their fate with you. But the great opportunity your couple gave them is something the Sword Sect needs to thank you for."
Zhu Yanyi said, "I made an agreement with your spiritual disciple earlier. If my husband and I are not here, I hope your sect can protect my younger brother for a hundred years. The transaction has already been contracted. The rest really doesn’t matter."
"That transaction was for five hundred Marrow-Cleansing Pills," the Sword Sect Sect Leader said clearly, showing he was a sensible person.
