The person who suddenly arrived was an extraordinarily graceful woman.
Dressed in a moon-red long robe, her beauty was unparalleled, and her demeanor was ethereal.
Especially at the center of her brow, there was a faint sword-shaped mark, pure and flawless, subtly shimmering with a soft Celestial Light. It was unclear whether it was engraved or naturally born, but it made her aura even more unique and distinct.
"Greetings, Sect Master!"
As she descended into this place, the Jade Spring Sword Immortal and Yuan Guang Sword Immortal, among others, hurriedly bowed respectfully to her.
"Sect Master of the Famous Sword Sect, Sword King Muqu—!"
Ye Fan did not expect that even the Sect Master of the Famous Sword Sect, Sword King Muqu, would personally appear at this moment. His gaze involuntarily turned toward her.
With an otherworldly grace and a cool, aloof demeanor, there was a hint of sharpness in her ethereal presence.
Particularly striking was the sword-shaped mark on her brow that shimmered with a faint Radiant Light, setting her apart from others.
Ye Fan thought to himself that no wonder Ximen Piaopiao longed to meet her.
After just one glance, Ye Fan withdrew his gaze and humbly bowed slightly, saying, "Senior, what do you mean? I have no intention of joining the Famous Sword Sect."
"Damn! Sword King Muqu..."
The leader of the Famous Sword Sect, Sword King Muqu, is the strongest sword cultivator in Sword Cloud Star and a peak existence in the Celestial King Realm, rarely making an appearance.
Even within the Famous Sword Sect, it is extremely difficult for ordinary disciples to catch a glimpse of her.
Most of the time, she is in seclusion.
Yet now, because of a junior Heavenly Prodigy, she has personally come here.
Her gaze fell upon Ye Fan, and throughout Famous Sword City, whether among the older generation of powerful figures or the Swordsmanship Prodigies attending the Famous Sword Festival, envy and a hint of jealousy were evident in their eyes.
Ximen Piaopiao flashed forward, directly standing in front of Ye Fan. She quickly said, "Sword King senior, my Night Fan Brother isn't refusing to join the Famous Sword Sect; he means to join your Sword King's Palace."
Hearing this, Ye Fan couldn't help but look at Ximen Piaopiao blocking his way.
When did he ever have such an idea?
However, before Ye Fan could speak, Sword King Muqu coldly replied, "Granted. Join my Famous Sword Sect, and I will personally guide your cultivation."
"Uh..."
Ye Fan was left dumbfounded as he looked at Ximen Piaopiao. "Ximen brother, when did you become able to read my mind? It seems... I haven't agreed yet!"
Ximen Piaopiao said nonchalantly, "Of course, Night Fan Brother shares a deep bond with us three siblings. The reason Night Fan Brother previously declined was because he was worried we wouldn't be able to enter the Sword King's Palace, right?"
"Night Fan Brother's righteousness is clear. Although you didn't say it outright, how could I, Ximen Piaopiao, not understand your intentions?"
"Rest assured, with the Sword King’s stature, how could he possibly turn away your brothers?"
Ximen Piaopiao spoke confidently, then turned her gaze towards Sword King Muqu and asked, "Senior Sword King, may I ask if our three siblings... oh no, our four siblings can join the Sword King's Palace together and learn... swordsmanship..."
As she spoke, Ximen Piaopiao kept exchanging glances with Wu Qiuyang and Heng Yuzhu.
At this moment, Wu Qiuyang and Heng Yuzhu also approached Ye Fan's side, solemn yet slightly awkward as they bowed to Sword King Muqu, Jade Spring Sword Immortal, and Yuan Guang Sword Immortal.
One couldn't help but feel that Ximen Piaopiao's boldness was quite excessive.
If it weren't for their understanding of her character and Ye Fan's earlier refusal, even they would have thought that Ximen Piaopiao was speaking the truth.
However, despite the awkwardness, both Wu Qiuyang and Heng Yuzhu felt a surge of excitement within.
Their original purpose in coming to Sword Cloud Star to participate in the Famous Sword Festival was to join the Famous Sword Sect.
To be able to join the Famous Sword Sect would already be a dream come true.
However, if they could join one of the Three Great Sword Halls, specifically the Sword King's Palace, and receive personal guidance from the sect leader, Sword King Muqu, it would undoubtedly be an even better choice.
Sword King Muqu could clearly see that Ximen Piaopiao's words were likely all empty flattery, mere lip service.
Even the Jade Spring Sword Immortal and Yuan Guang Sword Immortal exchanged glances at Ximen Piaopiao, their expressions tinged with a hint of exasperation.
This person was skilled in verbal sparring; although half of what was said was true and half was false, if they could truly recruit someone as extraordinary as Ye Fan into their Famous Sword Sect, it wouldn't be a bad outcome.
Thus, their gazes turned towards Sword King Muqu at that moment.
They wondered what choice she would make and whether she would accept both Ximen Piaopiao and her companions into the Sword King's Palace because of this unparalleled prodigy before them.
After all, while Ximen Piaopiao's talent and combat power might not match Ye Fan's, she was still exceptional in her own right, comparable to Xiao Xian and Wenshan Zhensong.
"Alright, from today onward, you four will all be disciples of my Famous Sword Sect's Sword King's Palace. This sect will personally teach you cultivation," Sword King Muqu said, her cold gaze briefly resting on Ximen Piaopiao before landing on Ye Fan. Without seeking his opinion, she nodded in agreement.
"Oh yeah!"
Upon hearing Sword King Muqu's words, Ximen Piaopiao immediately became overjoyed, nearly bursting into a dance.
"Really? We can really join the Sword King's Palace?"
Heng Yuzhu and Wu Qiuyang exchanged incredulous glances, disbelief evident in their eyes despite having heard Sword King Muqu promise to let them join the Sword King's Palace.
Yet, there was still a sense of disbelief lingering within.
When Ye Fan and Sword King Muqu turned their gazes toward her, Ximen Piaopiao suddenly realized she had let her excitement get the better of her. She quickly composed herself and said with a serious tone, "My apologies! I got a bit carried away! Hehe..."
It was rare, but when her eyes fell on Sword King Muqu, a faint blush appeared on Ximen Piaopiao's face.
"This..."
Seeing the excitement on Ximen Piaopiao's face, Wu Qiuyang and Heng Yuzhu exchanged glances, while Ye Fan found himself in a bit of a dilemma.
Noticing that Ye Fan was about to refuse, Ximen Piaopiao quickly tugged at his sleeve and whispered, "Night Fan Brother, don’t be like that. The reason Sword King agreed to let us join Sword King's Palace is all because of you. If you refuse, we definitely won’t have a chance."
"Look at Autumn Sun and Rain Bamboo; they’re so happy. Can you really bear to shatter their dreams?"
Ximen Piaopiao stole a glance at the cold and proud Sword King Muqu and added softly, "Besides, being trained by such a beautiful woman, don’t you think that’s a wonderful thing?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she couldn’t help but shrink back slightly.
She noticed that the gazes of Sword King Muqu, Jade Spring Sword Immortal, and Yuan Guang Sword Immortal had all briefly swept over her.
However, they quickly looked away.
