Chapter 3166

With the Su family's commercial information network.

Regarding the recent Heavenly Killer Lone Star who has caused quite a stir, naturally I have also heard of it.

Although I do not know the name and specific identity of that Heavenly Killer Lone Star.

But the rumors say that person is a black-clad sword cultivator.

However, black-clad sword cultivators are countless in the Northern Vast Expanse.

But for some unknown reason, Su Jianshi looks at Ye Guchen.

Even now, with Ye Guchen unconscious, she can still feel that icy, extreme sword intent.

"Rumor has it that the black-clad sword cultivator possessed by the Heavenly Killer Lone Star, with quasi-emperor cultivation, can contend against an emperor—could it be..."

Su Jianshi is also not foolish.

As the youngest steward of the Su family in the Northern Vast Expanse, she is naturally intelligent.

By rights, she should now detain this person, then summon those hunting the Heavenly Killer Lone Star to identify him.

But...

Su Jianshi looks at Ye Guchen.

She can feel that Ye Guchen should be an extremely pure sword cultivator.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to possess such pure sword intent.

And would a pure sword cultivator be the disaster star rumored to bring chaos to the Vast Expanse?

Su Jianshi is also a sword-loving person, her name even containing the character for sword.

So, she feels curiosity toward this unconscious black-clad sword cultivator.

Su Jianshi's eyes flicker uncertainly.

After thinking, she finally makes up her mind.

She does not reveal Ye Guchen's situation.

Instead, she summons some alchemists to treat and heal his injuries.

Not long after, Ye Guchen awakens.

Upon learning that Su Jianshi saved him, Ye Guchen expresses gratitude and then wishes to leave.

"Your injuries are far from healed, yet you wish to depart?"

Seeing the awakened Ye Guchen wanting to leave, Su Jianshi is also surprised.

Ye Guchen says: "Thank you, Miss Su, for your aid. This favor, I, Ye Guchen, will surely repay."

"But, my staying here brings you no benefit, only trouble."

Su Jianshi slightly bites her lip, looking at this straightforward sword cultivator before her.

"You think I have not noticed anything at all?"

"A severely injured black-clad sword cultivator, and moreover a quasi-emperor powerhouse."

Su Jianshi looks at Ye Guchen.

Ye Guchen startles, then says: "So you have already guessed my identity."

"Then you should all the more understand that keeping me here brings you no benefit."

Ye Guchen's nature is solitary and cold; he is not the type who likes to cause trouble for others.

"But your wounds are not yet healed; if you go out now and are detected by other forces, it would be too dangerous." Su Jianshi says.

Ye Guchen looks at Su Jianshi: "Miss Su, why do you help me so?"

Su Jianshi pauses, her gaze averts, then she speaks.

"I feel that you are not the same as the disaster star said to bring chaos to the Vast Expanse in legend."

"Moreover, I can sense that you are a pure sword cultivator."

"Oh? Miss Su also practices the sword?" Ye Guchen asks.

Upon mentioning the sword, he becomes interested.

"I have dabbled in it somewhat." Su Jianshi thinks, then suddenly says.

"How about this: you stay here for this period to recover from your injuries."

"As repayment, accompany me in sword practice—how does that sound?"

Su Jianshi looks at Ye Guchen, her bright eyes shining.

Ye Guchen, capable of contending against an emperor with quasi-emperor cultivation.

His sword Dao attainment must be extraordinarily monstrous.

Even her sword Dao instructor would find it more than sufficient.

Ye Guchen frowns slightly.

He does not wish to bring trouble to Su Jianshi.

But seeing Su Jianshi's stubborn expression, he thinks it over and still nods.

Su Jianshi smiles.

And in the following time, Ye Guchen remains here recuperating.

In leisure, he teaches Su Jianshi sword practice.

Over time, the two gradually become familiar.

Su Jianshi looks at the wooden sword Ye Guchen holds, curious.

"Why is your sidearm a wooden sword? Can it kill?"

Ye Guchen says: "It is never the sword that kills, but the wielder."

"The sword in hand is form; the sword in heart is spirit."

"With a sword in the heart, mountains, rivers, grass, and trees all become swords."

Ye Guchen is such a straightforward person; if he is to teach swordsmanship, he will teach it seriously.

To be honest, even Su Jianshi, who loves swords, cannot fully comprehend Ye Guchen's reasoning.

And Ye Guchen looks so young, which makes Su Jianshi curious about him and inquire about his origins.

"I come from the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, and I am not a person of the Vast Starry Sky." Ye Guchen said.

Upon hearing this news, Su Jianshi was quite astonished, never expecting Ye Guchen to have such a background.

"Then why have you come to the Vast Starry Sky?" Su Jianshi asked curiously.

Ye Guchen pondered, a hint of determination appearing in his eyes, and then said: "To seek stronger opponents and hone my sword Dao."

"And also to catch up to him!"

"Catch up to him?" Su Jianshi glanced at Ye Guchen.

Ye Guchen said: "He is my good friend, and of course, also the opponent I wish to surpass in this lifetime!"

"Your talent and cultivation are already so outstanding; for you to regard someone as your goal, that friend of yours must be extraordinary." Su Jianshi said.

"Not just extraordinary." Ye Guchen smiled.

"Even in this Vast Starry Sky, among peers, if he claims second place, few would dare claim first."

"What?" Su Jianshi's expression froze in shock.

Is he really that formidable?

She knows well that Ye Guchen, as a sword cultivator of straightforward nature,

would absolutely never flatter or exaggerate others.

That is to say, Ye Guchen truly believes his friend is capable of sweeping aside peers in the Vast Starry Sky.

Does this not mean his friend is stronger and more terrifying than the young emperors of the Ten Tyrant Clans and the unparalleled monsters of the Heavenly Court Divine Palace?

Su Jianshi is indeed somewhat curious now.

Ye Guchen, temporarily staying at Su Jianshi's place to rest and recuperate.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Zi Ling Realm.

Zi Ling Realm is a vast and prosperous great realm in one part of the Vast Starry Sky.

The power occupying this realm is precisely the well-known immortal force of the Vast Starry Sky, the Boundless Sword Domain!

Although the strength of the Boundless Sword Domain is quite good.

But strictly speaking, relying solely on their own foundation, they actually would not have such fame.

Mainly because the founder of the Boundless Sword Domain came from the Sword Clan.

As one of the Ten Tyrant Clans, the Sword Clan's name is renowned throughout the Vast Starry Sky.

This clan specializes in sword cultivators, and their strength is also extremely terrifying.

Otherwise, they could not be listed alongside the War Clan, Cloud Clan, and Primordial Dragon Clan as one of the Ten Tyrant Clans.

And the Sword Clan is also known as the pilgrimage site for sword cultivators in the Vast Starry Sky.

The Boundless Sword Domain, having gained prestige from the Sword Clan's reputation, is therefore not weak in fame.

In the Zi Ling Realm, continuous mountain ranges rise and fall.

One isolated peak after another, like swords, pierce straight into the heavens.

Brilliant sword intent and sword qi fill this heaven and earth year-round.

This is precisely the location of the Boundless Sword Domain.

Within the Boundless Sword Domain, many sword cultivators of the Boundless Sword Domain wear smiles of contentment on their faces.

Because the young lord of the Boundless Sword Domain previously succeeded in attaining the level of Youth Emperor.

This undoubtedly further enhanced the prestige of the Boundless Sword Domain and also contributed to its enduring prosperity.

After all, producing a Youth Emperor-level figure brings hidden fortune and blessings to one's family and power.

Naturally, the cultivators of the Boundless Sword Domain can also share in this glory, feeling proud when they go out.

At this moment, deep within the Boundless Sword Domain, in a cave filled with piercing sword qi,

A man with a sharp, sword-like aura sits cross-legged, his imperial might radiating outward.

The surrounding Boundless Sword qi revolves around him as its center.

However, in this man's eyes, there remains a trace of astonishment.

"I never expected that I would become the young lord of the Boundless Sword Domain."
