Chapter 65 – Son-in-law sees father-in-law?

Sword Sect, Sword Discussion Platform.

This is where all the disciples of the Sword Sect spar, and it's also the place with the most intense atmosphere.

The Sword Discussion Platform gathers players and NPC disciples who love combat and skill. They also earn contribution points by dueling.

The sect not only doesn't discourage this trend but actively promotes it.

This is why the Sword Sect is teeming with experts.

Many elders from the Outer Temple and branch halls take turns guarding the platform day and night. They intervene at critical moments to protect the disciples.

To prevent them from being seriously injured or even killed by the blind blades.

"This round, Outer Temple disciple Chen Yuan wins!"

In the center of the platform, an elder announced a player's victory.

The one who fell under this player's sword was also a player at the later stage of Qi Refining!

The surrounding players and disciples whispered among themselves.

"This Chen Yuan is amazing! He's won eight consecutive matches, hasn't he?"

"Yeah, undefeated. He's incredible, and he's only at the later stage of Qi Refining."

"His innate talent is Sword Fanatic, ranked third on the talent list."

"Look at the elders around; they're all looking at him with approval. Even the head elder of the branch hall is smiling at him. I think Chen Yuan is about to soar."

"I think he's the number one expert in the Tianyan Sword Sect."

...

Chen Yuan won again, a confident smile on his face as he sheathed his sword and stepped down from the platform.

At this moment, the head elder of the branch hall walked over, smiling as he said, "Your name is Chen Yuan?"

"Reporting to the elder, disciple Chen Yuan." Chen Yuan was puzzled about why the head elder was looking for him.

"I am Nangong Wu, head of the branch hall. I see you have great talent and skill in swordsmanship. I wish to take you as my personal disciple. Are you willing?"

The head elder was a robust middle-aged man in a dark blue robe, bearing a resemblance to the Grand Elder of Tianyuan.

Chen Yuan never expected the head elder to take him as a disciple. Overjoyed, he immediately bowed and accepted.

Nangong Wu was also delighted to have such an excellent disciple.

He believed that with proper training, this disciple could become outstanding, even surpassing the next Chu Tianhan.

"Father!"

Suddenly, a soft and sweet voice came from behind.

"Yue'er, what brings you here?"

What kind of day is this? Should he have stayed home?

And the challenger is the top swordsman from his past life.

"I'm not interested."

Lin Jichen refused Chen Yuan's challenge.

Nangong Wu showed displeasure, "Do you know the rules of the Sword Sect? Unless you're seriously injured, on a mission, or in seclusion, you can't refuse a challenge from a disciple with lower or equal cultivation. Or if you've already dueled once, you don't have to duel again for three days. Haven't you heard of these rules?"

Lin Jichen replied, "I know, but I've already agreed to another duel and can't fight Chen Yuan now."

"Oh? Who are you dueling?"

Nangong Wu was curious.

"That would be him." Lin Jichen pointed to Wang Xunhuang.

Nangong Wu's interest piqued.

"You're dueling someone at the later stage of Foundation Establishment?"

Lin Jichen shrugged, "I have no choice. Senior Brother Wang likes to bully the weak and challenged me."

"You can refuse since his cultivation is higher," Nangong Wu said.

Wang Xunhuang's face changed. He hadn't told Lin Jichen this.

Actually, if someone with higher cultivation challenges someone with lower cultivation, the latter can refuse.

He deliberately didn't say this, fearing Lin Jichen would refuse.

The realm gap was just a bluff to make Lin Jichen believe it.

Nangong Yue, having seen Lin Jichen's strength, wasn't worried about him losing to Wang Xunhuang, so she didn't mention it.

Now, with Nangong Wu's words, Wang Xunhuang feared Lin Jichen would back out.

But to his surprise, Lin Jichen didn't back out. Instead, he smiled.

"I know that, but Senior Brother Wang likes to give me sect contributions, so I'll reluctantly accept."

Nangong Wu thought this kid was overdoing it, showing off in front of him?

And Nangong Yue's loving and trusting gaze at Lin Jichen made him, as a father, quite displeased.

"Then I must see for myself. You two can duel on this central platform. I'll oversee it personally."

Nangong Wu sat grandly on the viewing platform, waiting to see Lin Jichen get humiliated.

He hoped his daughter would see Lin Jichen's disgrace and give up on him.

This kid was no match for his disciple, Chen Yuan!
