“Strongest Eight-Year-Old Divine Ancestor ... ”
The figures from the Ninefold Celestial Gate, including Xuan Hong and several powerful beings, along with the Huaqing Immortal King and Chang Liu Xian Wang from the Celestial Demon Domain, had all retreated.
In the skies above Famous Sword City, only Ye Fan, Ximen Piaopiao, Wu Qiuyang, Heng Yuzhu, and Cao Zun remained.
Additionally, there was the sect leader of Famous Sword Sect, Sword King Muqu, along with the other two Celestial Kings of the sect, Jade Spring Sword Immortal and Yuan Guang Sword Immortal.
However, aside from Ximen Piaopiao, everyone’s gaze turned towards Cao God and Ximen Piaopiao, revealing a hint of shock in their eyes.
No one had expected that Ximen Piaopiao would be a descendant of the Ninefold Celestial Gate and Ximen Emperor.
Beyond their astonishment, the sect leader Moonlit Melody and the two sword immortals Yuan Guang and Jade Spring looked at Ximen Piaopiao with a sense of speechlessness.
This kid, being a descendant of Ximen Emperor, had come to their Sword Cloud Star and Famous Sword City to participate in the Famous Sword Festival.
Wasn’t this just causing chaos?
Not to mention what kind of existence Ximen Emperor was.
Just within the Ninefold Celestial Gate alone, how many peak experts were there?
With his identity, wouldn’t he have access to any profound sword classics and techniques he desired?
Forget about Celestial Kings; wouldn’t it be easy for him to find renowned masters from the Celestial Sovereign or Celestial Emperor Realm?
Yet this person had come to their Sword Cloud Star to attend the Famous Sword Festival. Wasn’t this nonsense?
However, such thoughts were ones that Yuan Guang Sword Immortal and Jade Spring Sword Immortal could only dare to keep to themselves!
Knowing the identity of Ximen Piaopiao, who would dare to speak in his presence?
The leader of the Famous Sword Sect, Sword King Muqu, glanced at Ye Fan and the others. Although there were waves of emotion within him, he quickly suppressed them, maintaining a calm demeanor. After smiling at Cao Zun's identity, he stepped forward and addressed everyone, "Senior Cao, since Young Master Ximen, along with Ye Fan, Wu Qiuyang, and Heng Yuzhu, have already agreed to join my Famous Sword Sect, they are now disciples of our sect."
"Since Senior Cao is here, why not accompany us to the Famous Sword Sect for a brief rest? Moonlit Melody would also like to extend her hospitality."
Upon hearing this, Cao Zun couldn't help but give a half-smile as he looked at Sword King Muqu.
He hadn't expected this Sword Queen to treat Ximen Piaopiao as an ordinary disciple even after knowing his identity.
Especially Ye Fan; even a fool could see that keeping him around would likely lead to significant trouble.
As the leader of a sect, it was impossible for him not to realize this.
Yet, what gave her the confidence to keep Ye Fan around?
Cao Zun felt a hint of curiosity.
However, since the young master was present, it wasn't his place to express an opinion.
So, with a smile on his face, he turned his gaze toward Ximen Piaopiao.
Cao Zun was clearly aware of why Ximen Piaopiao had come to Famous Sword City for the Famous Sword Festival; he just chose not to mention it.
Seeing Cao Zun's gaze upon him, Ximen Piaopiao nodded repeatedly and said, "Uncle Cao is right. We have all pledged ourselves to the Sword King's Palace under the sect leader and are now disciples of the Famous Sword Sect. We must return with the sect leader."
"If Uncle Cao has no other matters to attend to, why not join us as we visit the Famous Sword Sect? I believe the sect leader will surely extend a warm welcome to you."
"Of course," Moonlit Melody nodded. "Moreover, if you were to leave now, it would likely cause some trouble. After all, with Young Master Ximen and Ye Fan joining my Famous Sword Sect, we need a strong presence like yours to oversee things."
"Oh?" Cao Zun turned to the leader of the Famous Sword Sect, Moonlit Melody. "Does Master Muqu have no strategies to counter this?"
"With a powerful figure like you here, what does Moonlit Melody need to worry about?" the sect leader replied softly.
Cao God could tell that the words of this female leader were not entirely truthful, but he chose not to press further. He simply nodded and said, "Since the young master wishes to go, I will naturally accompany him."
Now that Ximen Piaopiao's identity was exposed, along with Ye Fan still being by the young master's side, it would be dangerous without his presence nearby.
Yet even so, a hint of worry lingered in Cao God's heart.
With Ye Fan's identity revealed, how could the Suspended King Sword Sect and the Celestial Demon Domain simply let this matter rest?
If the Celestial King was not strong enough, what about the Celestial Sovereign or the Celestial Emperor?
Once such powerful figures arrived, even with his presence here, it might not be enough!
He could only wonder how Ximen Emperor would react upon learning about what had transpired here!
