Chapter 344: Test

The Starfall Mountain Range spanned a thousand miles.
Cloud was already covering the mountain around its middle.
It could be gleaned how tall it was.
When the five of them arrived at the foot of Starfall Mountain Range,
Lin Jie stopped and said, “Wait here for a while.”
Shi Sheng asked curiously, “Isn’t your sect at the peak of Starfall Mountain?”
Lin Jie smiled and replied, “This entire mountain belongs to the Starfall Sword Ancestor Sect. When outsiders visit the Starfall Sword Ancestor Sect, they have to wait at the foot of the mountain.”
Ye Qiubai nodded.
If it was any other sect, Ye Qiubai might think that there was something wrong with the sect’s hospitality.
Or rather, biases against them.
However, he would understand why the Starfall Sword Ancestor Sect had sealed themselves in and was paranoid because of what happened.
Lin Jie also nodded secretly, seeing that Ye Qiubai and the other two didn’t mind.
They waited for about an incense stick of time.
A middle-aged man brought a young man and a cold woman to the foot of the mountain.
The middle-aged man’s face was firm, and there was a sword mark at the corner of his eye.
He carried a three-foot-long blade on his back.
Ye Qiubai couldn’t tell his realm either.
He was probably already at Peak Stage Martial Monarch Realm or even higher!
Even though the Star fall Sword Ancestor Sect had fallen, its foundation was still deep.
Lin Jie looked at the middle-aged man and cupped his hands. “Peak Master Zhang.”
The Starfall Sword Ancestor Sect.
There were four peaks.
The main peak, Broken Cloud Peak, was the peak where the Sect Master was located.
The other three peaks were Violet Cloud Peak, Supreme Intention Peak, and the Howling Sword Peak!
Zhang Yunzong was the peak master of the Howling Sword Peak.
Upon seeing Lin Jie, Zhang Yunzong nodded solemnly. The corners of his mouth curled into a smile, looking very forced.
Upon seeing Lin Jie, Zhang Yunzong nodded solemnly. The corners of his mouth curled into a smile, looking very forced.
One had to know that Zhang Yunzong usually did not smile and was extremely serious.
“You’re back. How was your harvest?”
Lin Jie replied, “I have some insights.”
Zhang Yunzong nodded. “As long as you have some insights, you can come to Howling Sword Peak later. I’ll help you verify it.”
Comprehension required actual combat to verify.
This way, he could better absorb it for his own use.
Zhang Yunzong nodded again and looked at Ye Qiubai and the other two.
“I heard that you obtained a meteorite, so you want to come to my Starfall Sword Ancestor Sect to pay your respects to the Sword Emperor?”
Blackie and Shi Sheng didn’t have enough words.
Ye Qiubai was the one who did this kind of communication.
Ye Qiubai took a step forward and cupped his hands at Zhang Yunzong, but he didn’t say what he had said to Lin Jie.
Instead, he shook his head and said, “No.”
Lin Jie was slightly stunned.
Even though he knew that Ye Qiubai’s words weren’t his main goal,
he did not expect Ye Qiubai to take the initiative to say it.
Even the man and woman behind Zhang Yunzong were stunned. Then, their expressions became even more hostile!
The Starfall Sword Emperor was the source of their faith!
Wasn’t Ye Qiubai looking down on their faith?
However, they did not draw their swords.
It was someone else’s freedom to respect the Starfall Sword Emperor after all. They had no reason to interfere.
Zhang Yunzong’s eyes were slightly cold, but his expression was still serious. He frowned slightly, and wisps of aura appeared and pressed down on Ye Qiubai!
“So you’re lying?”
Ye Qiubai smiled. He was suppressed by this aura, even though his figure was restricted.
However, Ye Qiubai still straightened his back like a green sword that shot into the sky!
“I was indeed lying before.”
“Oh? What about now?”
“Now, I really want to pay my respects to the Starfall Sword Emperor. He’s a great person.”
“He’s also a qualified sword cultivator.”
“The name of the Sword Emperor is well-deserved.”
“Presumptuous!” The cold woman amongst them finally couldn’t endure it any longer, and she shouted with a delicate voice. “Senior Sword Emperor is naturally a qualified sword cultivator, so why would he need you to admit it?”
Ye Qiubai wasn’t angry because of this. Instead, he looked at the cold woman. His eyes were indifferent and calm, but they were extremely sincere.
“If the world doesn’t acknowledge him, why would the Starfall Sword Emperor be supported by the world?”
The cold woman’s tone froze.
Zhang Yunzong wasn’t angry at Ye Qiubai’s seemingly arrogant words.
Instead, he carefully sized up Ye Qiubai.
Ye Qiubai didn’t dodge and looked into Zhang Yunzong’s eyes.
Suddenly, Ye Qiubai felt his body lighten!
The aura released by Zhang Yunzong vanished completely at that moment!
“You’re not bad.”
“Your Sword Dao is also very pure. Do you want to join my Starfall Sword Ancestor Sect?”
As soon as these words were spoken, the man and woman behind Zhang Yunzong were stunned.
The two of them were Zhang Yunzong’s personal disciples and had been by his side for a long time.
He knew Zhang Yunzong very well!
In the entire Starfall Sword Ancestor Sect, Howling Sword Peak Peak was famous for being strict!
They never easily recruited disciples!
However, he personally said that he wanted Ye Qiubai to join the Starfall Sword Ancestor Sect?
Lin Jie also smiled.
Since Zhang Yunzong had said these words, the inspection of Ye Qiubai ended.
Ye Qiubai exceeded the man and woman’s expectations.
He shook his head and said, “Thank you, Senior. However, Qiu Bai already has a sect.”
Zhang Yunzong nodded. “Since we already have a sect, it’s right not to join.”
“As long as you join a sect, you have to be loyal. This is the foundation of a sect.”
Obviously, in Zhang Yunzong’s heart, his evaluation of Ye Qiubai rose again!
“Alright, Lin Jie, bring the three of them up the mountain.”
With that, Zhang Yunzong left with the man and woman!
Lin Jie also smiled and said, “Brother Ye, it’s not easy to obtain Peak Master Zhang’s recognition.”
Ye Qiubai smiled. “I’m just telling the truth.”
However, Lin Jie said seriously, “To be honest, these four words sound quite easy to say.”
“But how many people can really do that?”
Ye Qiubai smiled and said, “You’re exaggerating too much. Let’s go and take a look. We’ll spar with Brother Lin Jie later!”
Lin Jie’s eyes lit up upon hearing about the spar.
Clearly, he also wanted to spar with Ye Qiubai.
He could not wait to lead the four of them up the mountain.
The Starfall Sword Ancestor Sect.
Other than the Peak Masters, the rest had to walk up the mountain!
On the way up the mountain, Mu Cisheng’s expression was a little shy. He looked at Ye Qiubai and asked softly, “Aren’t you afraid of being chased out when you said that?”
Ye Qiubai looked at his future brother-in-law and smiled. “If I still say what I said before, they definitely won’t believe me.”
“How could a person who only understands the Starfall Sword Ancestor Sect after Lin Jie’s introduction on the way think of going to the Starfall Sword Emperor after all?”
Mu Cisheng was stunned. “Could it be that you did it on purpose?”
Ye Qiubai smiled and shook his head. “I didn’t do it on purpose. I’m just telling the truth.”
The Fallen Star Mountain was very high.
The five of them walked up the mountain and spent half a day before they finally arrived at the mountain gate…
