Chapter 120 – Elder Wang, please take the sword!

From Senior Disciple Jin's words, Meng Fan gleaned a piece of information that would prove useful in the future.

That is, within the Demon Locking Tower, there were sealed Demon Swords and other such weapons.

These Sword Weapons were undoubtedly extremely powerful and terrifying.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have been sealed within the Demon Locking Tower.

When Meng Fan grew stronger, after he had exploited all the resources of the Sword Pavilion, perhaps he could consider challenging the Demon Locking Tower.

But this was not something to consider in the short term; it was a matter to be measured in years.

Meng Fan felt that if he could freely enter the Demon Locking Tower in ten years, it would be quite an achievement.

To this, one could only say that he underestimated himself!

"Senior Disciple Jin, is the Clan Master of the Ghost King Sect so confident that he dares to invade the Shu Mountain Sword Sect's Demon Locking Tower alone?" Meng Fan asked curiously.

The Clan Master of the Ghost King Sect was undoubtedly strong, that was certain.

But no matter how strong, he couldn't possibly be stronger than the entire Shu Mountain Sword Sect. At least, Meng Fan believed that the Sect Leader of Shu Mountain was definitely not weaker than the Clan Master of the Ghost King Sect.

Plus, with the other members of Shu Mountain, what made the Clan Master of the Ghost King Sect so arrogant and presumptuous to invade the Shu Mountain Sword Sect alone?

Senior Disciple Jin shook his head helplessly, "He just wants to challenge the Demon Locking Tower, not to declare war on behalf of the Ghost King Sect against the Shu Mountain Sword Sect!

Moreover, he issued a challenge openly. Our Shu Mountain Sword Sect is a reputable sect; we can't just gang up and attack him, can we?Reêad latest novels at novelhall.com

As long as he can pass the Sect Leader's test, he has a chance to enter the Demon Locking Tower.

Whether he can come out alive from the Demon Locking Tower, that's another story!"

This statement was actually quite reasonable.

If the Sect Leader of Shu Mountain were to invade the Ghost King Sect, he might indeed be attacked en masse and pulverized into dust.

But the Shu Mountain Sword Sect, being one of the leaders of the Righteous Path, wouldn't do such a thing.

There's no choice, one must maintain face and magnanimity!

Sometimes, the actions of those on the Righteous Path are indeed a bit overly cautious, lacking the carefree ease of those on the Demonic Path.

"What do you mean by 'whether he can come out alive from the Demon Locking Tower is uncertain'? Is the danger inside the Demon Locking Tower greater than the Sect Leader?" Meng Fan frowned slightly, somewhat surprised.

In his view, the Sect Leader should be the strongest existence within the Shu Mountain Sword Sect.

Even if there were dangers inside the Demon Locking Tower, they couldn't possibly be stronger than the Sect Leader.

Meng Fan then led Elder Wang away from the Scripture Pavilion to a quiet, uninhabited place, a bamboo grove on the back mountain.

"What's with all the secrecy, lad? What are you up to?" Elder Wang asked Meng Fan, looking exasperated.

Meng Fan sighed and took out two small stools from his storage ring, placing them on the ground.

They each took a seat.

"Elder Wang, please prepare yourself. What I'm about to say may cause you to lose your composure. You must stay calm," Meng Fan said earnestly.

Elder Wang rolled his eyes, "Out with it!"

Seeing Elder Wang's attitude, Meng Fan sighed again.

Once he told Elder Wang the news, Elder Wang might not maintain such a relaxed demeanor.

But Meng Fan didn't hesitate; having decided to tell Elder Wang, he wouldn't waver.

Because if he were in Elder Wang's shoes, he would definitely want to know this news.

Blood debts must be paid in blood!

Meng Fan took out a sword from his storage ring.

The Compassionate Heart Sword!

He had brought this sword out from the Sword Pavilion.

"Elder Wang, you surely haven't forgotten this sword, have you?" Meng Fan handed the long sword to Elder Wang.

Elder Wang did not take the sword; he had sworn that until he avenged his child, he would not touch the Compassionate Heart Sword again.

He frowned at Meng Fan, his expression full of confusion.

"What do you mean by this?"

Meng Fan said helplessly, "I know this sword is yours."

Elder Wang shook his head.

"This sword was indeed mine, but it's not anymore. I don't know where you learned about the connection between this sword and me, but now it doesn't belong to me. Put it back in the Sword Pavilion."

Hearing Elder Wang's words, Meng Fan still maintained the gesture of offering the Compassionate Heart Sword, without retracting it.

"Elder Wang, I know why you won't take this sword. But now, you can take it back."

Meng Fan looked directly at Elder Wang, his voice laden with complexity, "Because I know who killed your wife and child!"
