Heaven Martial Country, Cloud City, Yun Family, rear mountain.

A sixteen year old teenager continued to brandish his Longsword as sweat soaked his clothes. He turned around, causing drops of sweat to splash out. Under the illumination of the sun, the beads of sweat fell onto the ground one by one.

Ten years. Ten whole years. He practiced every day. Besides sleeping and eating, all of his time was given to the sword.

His sword techniques continued to improve, but he was still unable to cultivate any Genuine Qi.

"I don't believe that I can't master it. I don't believe that I will forever be a cripple!"

In less than three breaths, Zhang Xuan had started practicing once more.

The wind blew and the fallen leaves flew in the air!

The Longsword seemed to have grown a pair of eyes as it pierced through the fallen leaves one by one. When a distant fallen leaf landed on the ground, the Longsword's surface was already filled with fallen leaves.

"Good, that's great, Brother Yun Fan!" A beautiful young girl ran over excitedly.

The young Longsword waved and the leaves on the sword flew out, dancing in the air. She reached out her hand to hold the young girl's hand, revealing a bright and beautiful smile.

"Yujiao, you're here! "Sit down!"

Yun Fan used his sleeves to wipe the rocks beside him, allowing Yun Yujiao to sit.

"Brother Yun Fan, you're working too hard aren't you? Training with the sword everyday is not tiring at all! "

Yun Fan shook his head, which was covered in sweat. I have to become the Patriarch of Yun Family sooner or later. How can I not have the strength? Furthermore, my dad hasn't had any news of me in the past few years. If I can't even protect the position that he gave me, how would I have the face to go and find him? "

"But didn't you not manage to cultivate Genuine Qi? Without the Genuine Qi, what's the use of having a good sword technique? "

Yun Fan was the son of the previous Patriarch, Yun Xiao. As the son of the family head, he had good training environments and resources.

All of this should have been destined for him to become the pride of the heavens, but sadly, he could not cultivate Genuine Qi.

Genuine Qi was the foundation of everything, no matter how strong the martial skill was, it needed Genuine Qi to be activated. Without Genuine Qi, no matter how good a martial skill was, it would just be a show. He was destined to be the trash in others' eyes.

If his father was by his side, he could still give some pointers, but Yun Xiao had already left the family for ten years and there was no news of him.

The reason why he had been cultivating nonstop for the past ten years was because he wanted to refine Genuine Qi, inherit the position of Patriarch, and then inquire about his father.

"Don't worry, I will succeed sooner or later. Oh right, don't tell me you want me to teach you how to practice the sword again? "

"Of course, other than Brother Yun Fan, who else is stronger than me in Yun Family?" Yun Yujiao got up and pulled out her Longsword, her charming smile full of arrogance.

With the Longsword in hand, he stepped forward. With a flash, the Longsword danced in his hands.

His steps were light, his sword was like the wind, and his moves were flawless. After finishing the practice of the sword technique, Yun Yujiao turned to look at Yun Fan.

"Brother Yun Fan, how's the progress of my Falling Leaf Sword Arts?"

"Very good. He had already mastered it. What you lack right now is only the comprehension of this martial skill. It seems like I don't have anything else to teach you. " Yun Fan laughed.

The cultivation of a martial skill was divided into four stages: Initiation, initial stage, mastery, and perfection. Yun Yujiao had mastered the《 Falling Leaf Sword Arts》 to perfection, he was only one step away from perfection.

"Heh heh, really? But if not for Brother Yun Fan's careful guidance, I wouldn't be able to cultivate what I have now. "

"This is not my credit, the《 Falling Leaf Sword Arts》 is a high-grade Yellow Level martial skill. If it was any other disciple of the clan, even if I were to teach them every day, they wouldn't be as good as you. " Yun Fan said seriously.

There were a lot of disciples in Yun Family, but whether it was in terms of talent or comprehension, Yun Yujiao was definitely the number one person.

Yun Yujiao was a disciple from a side branch of the Yun Family, so the resources available to the disciples from a side branch were limited.

These two years, Yun Fan had always been teaching her sword techniques, to the point where only the Patriarch knew how to learn the Falling Leaf Sword Arts. The two of them were often together and had always been on good terms.

"Although this martial skill is called 'Falling Leaf Sword Arts', its essence is still the comprehension of the wind. If you go and feel the wind, you will be able to train even better. "

"Well, I will. Brother Yun Fan, you seem to be very tired, why don't you go back and rest? He couldn't break his body from training so hard. I want to practice a little more...

"Alright, then I won't accompany you!"

Just as Yun Fan left, a middle-aged man walked out from the side.

"Father!" Yun Yujiao said.

This person was Yun Yujiao's father, Yun Hao. He was the third elder of Yun Family, the only elder of a side branch.

"Good, looks like he really taught you all the sword techniques." It is time to change the position of Patriarch of Yun Family. " Yun Hao's eyes revealed a trace of ruthlessness.

"Father, don't worry." No one in Yun Family is my match right now. " Yun Yujiao waved the sword in his hand, his face filled with arrogance.

"I cannot slack off. For this day, I have planned for so many years. You have also endured by that piece of trash's side for so long, you definitely won't lose anything. In a month, it will be the annual day that the various sects come to Cloud City to recruit disciples.

Usually, Third-rate Sect come to our Cloud City, and this time, even the second rate sects' Heaven's End Sect come as well. Although I have reported your situation to the Heaven's End Sect, they are still satisfied. But the Cloud City is not like that of our family, so we cannot let others beat us to it. "

"Don't even think about it. In a month's time, I will be able to break through the ninth level of Body Tempering Stage. At that time, no one will be able to be my opponent. As long as I enter the Heaven's End Sect, the position of Patriarch will belong to Father. " Yun Yujiao raised his head even higher.

"Haha …" Well said! " Yun Hao laughed out loud.

The Yun Family had always been controlled by the direct line. As the only elder of a side branch of the Yun Family, he had been keeping an eye on the Patriarch's position for more than ten years, and it was about to be realized, so how could he not be happy?

After the two of them left, a young man slowly walked out of the forest.

The young man's name was Yun Yang, and his Yun Family was direct disciple. With ordinary perception and talent, he seemed very ordinary among the disciples.

His relationship with Yun Fan was the best. When he was free, Yun Fan would teach him some martial skills. In his heart, Yun Fan was his elder brother, his biological brother.

"Bastard, I didn't expect them to be so vicious." He actually wants to snatch Brother Yun Fan's position as Patriarch. No, I must tell Brother Yun Fan about this. "

In the Yun Family Hall, Yun Yu smiled as he looked at Yun Fan: "Yun Fan, if you don't have any objections, I plan to settle the matter of your marriage with Yun Yu in the next few months.

Since your father isn't here, I will naturally be in charge of your affairs. See if there's anything else I can do for you. In the future, you will be the patriarch of Yun Family, so the scene must not be small! "

"Grand Elder, you should handle this matter. Right now, I just want to cultivate a Genuine Qi as soon as possible, if not, even if I sat on the Patriarch's seat, my heart wouldn't be able to calm down! "

"Brother Yun Fan, something's wrong..."

"Impudent, who let you in? Get out of here! " Yun Yu's face darkened.

The main hall of the clan was usually used to entertain important guests and discuss important matters. Apart from the elders and the Patriarch, no one else was allowed to enter without being notified.

The Yun Family family wasn't large, but the rules were extremely strict. If not for this, Yun Fan would never treat him so well if he could not cultivate Genuine Qi for ten years.

"I …" Yun Yang could not help but look at Yun Fan anxiously.

"Great Clan Elder, there must be a reason why Yun Yang is here, if not he would not be so reckless. Let him talk! " Yun Fan smiled.

"Speak, if you don't know what's going on, then see how I'll punish you." Yun Yu nodded.

"Great Clan Elder, Brother Yun Fan. Oh no, the Third Elder wants to snatch the Patriarch's seat. Yun Yujiao had always been deceiving Brother Yun Fan, because she wanted to learn Brother Yun Fan's sword technique. Then, she could enter the Heaven's End Sect during the sect's disciple recruitment. We have all been deceived! " Yun Yang could not wait to say it out.

"Nonsense!" Yun Fan suddenly stood up.

"Yujiao is not the kind of person you are talking about. We have always been on good terms with each other, so how could she do such a thing?!"

"Really, I heard it with my own ears, right at the back of the mountain. If Brother Yun Fan doesn't believe it, then let's ask the Great Clan Elder. If Yun Yu Jiao enters the Heaven's End Sect, would the three elders become the Patriarch? " Yun Yang explained.

Without waiting for Yun Fan to speak, Yun Yu's face darkened.

"Yun Fan, looks like this is true. The clan had a rule: if the children of an elder could enter a second-rate sect, then he was the clan head.

Our Yun Family has always been where our disciples enter. Not only our Yun Family, even the disciples of all the families with Cloud City are not allowed to enter the second-rate sects.

This has always been a goal of our Yun Family, and we have long since set such a rule. However, no one had been able to do it. Over time, this matter was forgotten by us. I never thought that Yun Hao would actually think about it so far, that everything he has done in the past few years was all for the sake of the Patriarch's seat. "

Yun Fan didn't even know about this kind of thing, let alone Yun Yang.

The Yun Family was only a normal family, but Yun Xiao had grown a little with it. After Yun Xiao left, everyone knew that the Patriarch's seat was Yun Fan's, even if Yun Fan was unable to cultivate the Genuine Qi.

Others thought so, and Yun Fan thought so too. For this reason, he continued to work hard.

"No, that's impossible. My goal has always been to succeed the head of the family and strengthen the family. Yujiao already knew that, she would normally keep on encouraging me, so how could he do such a thing? "

Yun Fan did not believe, he did not believe that the girl who was constantly encouraging him was this kind of person, and rushed out while shouting loudly.

"Yujiao, come out!"

Yun Yujiao and Yun Hao lived in the same courtyard. The courtyard was not big and the wall was not high.

Yun Fan was very familiar with this place. Just as he stepped into the courtyard, a youth suddenly appeared and blocked his way.

"Yun Fan, without Sister Yujiao's permission, you cannot enter!"

"Yun Hui, what do you mean?"

Yun Hui had the best talent among all the disciples directly related to the Yun Family, breaking through the seventh level of the Body Tempering Stage at the age of fifteen, just a step away from the eighth level of the Body Tempering Stage.

Normally, Yun Yu would set him as a role model in front of all the direct disciples. Yun Fan never thought that he would actually be here, this was clearly to watch the door for Yun Yujiao!
