In the meeting room of Sky Palace, a group of elders and leaders were having a heated debate.
"That is the Eleventh Leader's secret sword skill. It is a secret of Sky Palace. It has been buried for a very long time, and now that it has been revealed again, it should be a secret of Sky Palace. How could it be given to an outsider?
Plus, that person is just a student. "
"That's not right. That's the will left behind by the Eleventh Palace Master himself. How can we go against his wishes?"
"That's because he didn't know White Elephant had chosen an outsider … and a student."
There were three factions in Sky Palace. One faction wanted to keep the Eleventh Leader's skill as a secret. Only the core members of the Sky could study it.
Another faction wanted to listen to the Eleventh Leader's will and give the sword skill to Han Yan.
The last faction wanted to study the Eleventh Leader's sword skill. They wanted to improve it so the students of Sky Palace could practice it.
"Milady Palace Master, can you say something?"
The Sixth Elder supported the idea of keeping the sword skills as a secret. When he said this, everyone noticed that Sky Palace Leader hadn't said a word. They had been arguing for a long time, but Sky Palace Leader hadn't said a word.
The Sky Palace Leader coldly said, "There is no need to discuss this."
"Leader, what do you mean?" The leader of the Sky Chance Department looked at the Sky Palace Leader with confusion.
The Sky Palace Leader looked at him. Then, he looked at everyone and said, "No matter what you do, if you can't get the Eleventh Leader's sword skill, what is the point?"
"Why can't we get it?
If we let Han Yan do it for us, would she dare refuse?
This belongs to Sky Palace. It is only right that we take it, "the leader of the Sky Chance Department said coldly.
"Only right? That's a good word. I just don't know what you think of the Eleventh Leader," Yun Changkong said mockingly.
"We don't dare to have the slightest blasphemy towards the Eleventh Palace Master … It's just that the Eleventh Palace Master didn't expect that the one who obtained the inheritance wasn't a disciple of our Tian Clan.
Right now, we're only using a temporary measure.
I believe that if the old man's spirit is in heaven, he'll agree with our actions." The Heaven Secret Courtyard's Dean said sanctimoniously.
Sky Palace Leader squinted his eyes and smiled.
"Sky Secret Dean is right.
This is a temporary solution, but the Eleventh Palace Leader must have thought of this, too.
That is why he left his Sky Breaking Elephant behind to protect him.
He didn't want us, the students, or the students, to use this as a temporary solution.
Sky Secret Dean, do you have any other temporary solutions that might allow us to solve this problem?"
"If Han Yan is willing to hand it over, the Sky Raising Elephant won't …" The leader of the Sky Chance Department's voice trailed off. He didn't think his words were reliable.
The legacy wasn't written in words. It was just a jade sword. The white elephant never left the jade sword. If Han Yan held it, she would be fine. If someone else tried to take it, they would be attacked by the Sky Raising Elephant. The Sixth Elder was a good example.
"The Giant Elephant is just a low-intelligence xenogeneic," an elder said with a hoarse voice. "It doesn't know much. If we work together to trap it and take the jade sword, it won't be able to do anything to us. Do you think it will?"
"Seventh Elder, is this Sky Palace or a bandit's nest?" Yun Changkong asked mockingly.
"Yun Changkong, don't be selfish. Han Yan is your student, but the sword skill is a treasure of Sky Palace. It isn't a private property of the Yun family," the Seventh Elder said coldly.
Yun Changkong was furious. "What do you mean?"
"You know what I mean. Why do you ask?"
"Sky, the Seventh Elder is right," Sky Palace Leader said, interrupting the two of them. "In that case, this matter is settled."
"Leader …" Yun Changkong didn't want to give up.
"Leader, you are so smart." The Seventh Elder looked happy.
Sky Palace Leader ignored Yun Changkong's desperate look. He smiled at the Seventh Elder and said, "If this was your idea, Seventh Elder, then I am going to have to trouble you again. Follow the plan and stall the Giant Elephant. Bring back the jade sword."
"Leader, I can't do this alone. I need you to send deifieds to stop the Sky Raising Elephant." The Seventh Elder's face changed. He could tell something was wrong with the Sky Palace Leader's tone.
"I can't help you with that," the Sky Palace Leader said coldly.
Sky Palace Leader coldly said, "I am hoping that Han Sen can help us gain a few more deifieds. We can beat Han Yan and steal her legacy. I cannot do such a thing. Seventh Elder, you should think of a way.
If this is your idea, you should have a way to make it happen.
If this is successful, you will be rewarded. "
"This …" The Seventh Elder's face looked glum. He didn't know what to say.
Yun Changkong was very happy. He now knew that the Sky Palace Leader was going to protect Han Yan.
Many of the Elders and Deans who were originally supporting the retrieval of the jade swords also shut their mouths at this time.
If the Sky Palace Leader wanted to protect Han Yan, and with Han Sen's reputation, no one wanted to go and take the jade sword.
If they disobeyed the Sky Palace Leader and offended Han Sen, they wouldn't be able to receive any of Han Sen's blessings in the future. Plus, Han Sen had two true god weapons, and he had been chosen by the Very High. His potential was limitless. If they stole something from Han Sen, they would be offending him.
"Whoever wants to take back the sword skill, I will support it. If you can get it back, you will be rewarded." Sky Palace Leader looked at everyone, but no one spoke.
Han Sen didn't think this would end so easily. The people of Sky Palace wouldn't allow such an important sword skill to fall into Han Yan's hands.
But what he expected didn't happen.
Sky Palace didn't find an excuse to take back the sword skill from the Eleventh Leader, and Yun Changkong didn't take Han Yan as a student.
He took Han Yan as a student on behalf of his teacher.
He made Han Yan a student of Yun Changkong's deceased teacher.
She became Yun Changkong's little sister.
She was of the same generation as the Sky Palace Leader.
After the grand ceremony, Han Yan was very young, but her status in Sky Palace was very high. Even Phyllostachys Longipes had to call her Little Auntie.
Han Yan had picked the holy gourd and received the sword skill. Yun Changkong had taken her as a student on behalf of his teacher. She had become a legend in Sky Palace. She was so famous that she was almost as famous as Phyllostachys Longipes. Everyone knew that Han Sen had such an amazing sister.
Of course, the ordinary students loved to talk about Han Yan's appearance the most.
Many students talked about it in private. They believed that Han Yan had been blessed by Han Sen. That was why she had achieved so much at such a young age. They were very excited about the blessing that would befall them in the future.
