Chapter 40 - Thousand Swords Return

Chapter 40 Thousand Swords Return

Whoosh! Ye Yan’s words immediately lit up the atmosphere of the whole place, though the focus was only on the first half of his sentence.

“Oh my, Hong, I didn’t expect this!” Chen Geng gave Hong En a meaningful look and revealed a gossipy smile.

Er Dan also came over, “Wow, Hong, to think you went on a blind date behind our backs. Tell us quickly, was the girl pretty? When are you going to bring her over for us to see?”

“Wow, I already have a sister-in-law!”

Other than Liu Kan and Ye Wen, the others all surrounded Hong En and teased him one after another, causing the latter’s face to turn red. For a moment, he was at a loss as to what to do and could only smile foolishly.

Liu Kan simply felt embarrassed about the topic, so he pretended not to hear it. Ye Wen, on the other hand, had already reached the age of marriage and felt that it was time for him to be more mature. Therefore, he didn’t

participate and just looked around.

Today was the day for the family to go to the market, so Grandpa Ye gave Ye Wen half a day off. He didn’t need to learn carpentry in the afternoon. Just as he was looking around, he saw something from the corner of his eye, which made him tremble, “Look! Why is there such a huge palace here?”

Dumen Village didn’t have any large buildings, so the hall that was standing in front of him was a huge building he had never seen before! Ye Wen’s exclamation attracted everyone’s attention, and everyone turned their eyes to the direction he pointed. Following this… “Oh, my dear mother!”

What came into view was a huge palace. Everyone was shocked for a moment, but then they immediately realized the root of the matter.

“Brother Yan, can you explain?”

Only Ye Yan could do such an unexpected thing. Ye Yan chuckled and pointed at the hall, “Here, this is the sect hall that I’ve been telling you about day and night. It’s done. Come and take a look!

After he finished speaking, he took the lead and walked towards the hall. The people behind him followed his steps. When they arrived at the entrance of the hall, everyone felt something shining above their heads. When they raised their heads, they saw a plaque.

“This is…” Chen Geng narrowed his eyes and said excitedly, “Ah, I know these words. The first two are the words of our sect’s name, God-slaying, and what follows is the word Dao, right? “

Liu Kan was entranced by the words on the plaque. When he heard Chen Geng say this, he smiled and added, “Well said! The last word is pronounced gōng, meaning palace.”

For these beginners, it was already very good that they could recognize these words. Liu Kan knew that Ye Yan had given him the task of wiping out illiteracy, and was aware that there would be many similar situations in the future.

Ye Yan walked forward, looking at the door that was a few times taller than him. He took a deep breath, then coat his hand in spiritual power before putting it on the door.

“Buzz!” He exerted some force, and the door rubbed against the ground, making an ear-piercing sound. Then, it slowly opened.

The hall was originally pitch black, but the moment the door was pushed open, the rays of the setting sun shone in and sprinkled on the hall. For a moment, it was golden and resplendent, making people feel as if they had been reborn.

The main hall was supported by four pillars,

and for some reason, these pillars seemed to be inlaid with some fragments. Under the setting sun, these fragments glowed with beautiful

light.

In front of the pillars was a flight of stairs. After climbing the stairs, one would reach the high platform of the hall, which was the leader’s seat. Other than that, the entire hall

was empty.

Ye Yan didn’t say anything, stepping over the

threshold and walking in. The others felt an invisible pressure shrouding their hearts, and a kind of sacred atmosphere rose.

They couldn’t help but lower their heads in such an atmosphere, following behind Ye Yan and slowly walking into the hall with trembling

feet. When they went in, Ye Yan was already standing under the high platform, looking at another plaque above his head, sighing in his

heart.

The God-slaying Sect! Under the setting sun,

the yellow words on the plaque shone, and a domineering aura was released. A domineering will that reached the heavens dispersed

through the space.

Ye Yan looked at the plaque, feeling very proud.

Since his reincarnation, from having nothing to establishing his own sect now, he was destined to no longer just be a member of the ordinary

people.

Even though he was still not strong enough, his influence was not that strong, everything still needed to be done, and there was still a long way to go before he could succeed, this was enough. It was already a good start. Only

Ye Yan and his friends knew how difficult it had been to build all this step by step. It was all worth it.

“This is the sect that belongs to… Us!” Ye Yan suddenly focused his eyes, clenched his fists, and shouted. Perhaps they were influenced by his emotions, but everyone felt a surge of emotions in their hearts, and their vision of the future became clearer. That’s right! Indeed! This was their sect! They had already taken the

first step, and they would be even stronger in the future!

[Ding! Detected that the cohesion of the

disciples has reached 200%. The host is rewarded with the heaven-grade array “Thousand Swords Return”. Please check it

yourself.]

[Note: This array is a heaven-grade array. It

requires the user to have a certain level of cultivation. Only those above the Mortal-breaking Realm can use it. If one tries

to cultivate it forcefully, one will explode and

die.]

A heaven-grade array! Ye Yan’s pupils constricted when he heard that. He didn’t

expect that a streak of luck would come so suddenly that he would be given a heaven-grade array!

However, the cultivation requirement also gave

him a headache. For the current him, the Mortal-breaking Realm and above was such a distant goal. He was only in the Qi-forging Realm, and there was still a long way to go.

Rather, not only he, but not a single person in

the entire sect had reached the completion of the Qi-forging Realm.

Ye Yan immediately put the Thousand Sword Return into the internal storage. Since it appeared in front of him, it would definitely play its role one day.

After everyone had finished touring the hall, it was already quite late. Hence, everyone packed up and went down the mountain. Today, Ye

Yan and Ye Wen went back to the old house of

the Ye family.

A girl playing with embroidery was squatting at

the door. When she saw the two of them, she quickly stood up and shouted, “Cousin Wen and Cousin Yan are back!”

As soon as she said this, there was a

commotion and the house became chaotic.

Grandma Ye was the first to walk out and head to the kitchen, “My good grandchildren are back. Grandma will bring the dishes up. Any later and they’ll get cold!”

Ye Dahai and the others slowly walked out of the house, accompanied by a little girl, Ye Yang. Ye Yang and the girl at the door, Ye Yin, were both Ye Dayang’s daughters. Ye Yan understood why everyone was so happy

today. It was because their business had been very successful. By the time he walked into the

house, he realized that they weren’t just plain happy.

The Ye family, which usually didn’t light many candles, was very well lit up today, and the

dinner was much more sumptuous than usual! It was no longer the usual vegetarian dishes. Today, the table was full of plates of dumplings and meat dishes. More importantly, almost

every dish was glistening with oil!
