How did I, a mere servant, become the father of the sect leader's child?

"Damn, how did this kid get in so easily?"

"Yeah, why is it that this kid can enter the main hall without having to undergo a sword intent test?"

"This is so unfair!"

"..."

Seeing how easily Ye Changtian entered the main hall, everyone felt a little resentful.

"Could it be a problem with the route? Did that kid discover a flaw in the sword intent and take a route that wouldn't be attacked by it?"

Just then, a silver-robed swordsman from the Star Sword Sect slowly spoke.

The silver-robed middle-aged man's words immediately made everyone's eyes light up.

Ye Changtian's leisurely stroll just now didn't seem like someone carrying sword intent into the main hall at all.

He might actually have found a flaw.

A red-haired youth from the Li Huo Sect had a slightly flickering gaze.

He had observed very carefully, so he remembered the exact route Ye Changtian took when he entered the main hall.

Anyway, let's give it a try.

What if it succeeds?

The red-haired youth took a step forward, following the route Ye Changtian had just taken towards the entrance of the main hall.

I don't know if it's just psychological or if it actually works.

He found that the pressure from the sword intent he was facing this time was actually much easier.

The red-haired youth was overjoyed and quickly sped towards the palace gate.

But in the next second.

The red-haired youth felt a blur before his eyes and found himself inside a blue lotus flower, with streaks of blue sword energy attacking him from all directions.

"Pfft!"

The red-haired youth coughed up a mouthful of blood and flew backward more than ten meters in a disheveled state.

"..."

Seeing the pitiful state of the red-haired youth, some of the geniuses from the three sects who were originally eager to try their luck instantly calmed down.

Obviously.

Ye Changtian was able to enter the main hall with ease, and it wasn't a matter of the route at all.

"Didn't you say that Ye Changtian's chosen path wouldn't be affected by sword intent?"

The red-haired youth wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, staring fiercely at the silver-robed swordsman from the Star Sword Sect, wishing he could tear him to pieces.

"Idiot!"

"I was just guessing, and I didn't say my guess was necessarily right. If you choose to believe it, whose fault is it?"

The silver-robed swordsman gave a cold laugh.

"Damn it, you dare mess with me? I'll fucking kill you!"

The red-haired youth was so angry he almost exploded.

He charged straight at the silver-robed swordsman and began fighting him.

……

The main hall of the Azure Lotus Sword Sect.

A handsome young man with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes stood quietly in the center of the hall.

The handsome young man was none other than Jian Xingchen, the first to pass the test outside the hall and step into this great hall.

In front of Jian Xingchen was a statue of a man in blue robes.

The man in blue stood proudly with his hands behind his back. His blue robes fluttered in the wind, and his indifferent eyes gazed up at the sky. He exuded an aura of dominance over the world.

"Is this the legendary Azure Lotus Sword Immortal?"

Jian Xingchen looked up at the statue in front of him, his expression filled with excitement.

Among the young geniuses of the three major sects this year, only Lu Li of the Li Huo Sect is qualified to compete with him for the inheritance of the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal.

Because of this.

After entering the main hall, he did not immediately try to obtain the inheritance of the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal, but instead decisively lay in ambush at the entrance.

And it turned out just as he had predicted.

Not long after he entered the main hall, Lu Li passed the test outside the hall and broke into the hall.

Before Lu Li could react, Jian Xingchen unleashed a powerful sword strike, severely injuring her and forcing her out of the main hall.

It's impossible for Lu Li to recover in a short time.

He can now focus his attention on the inheritance of the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal.

only……

How can one obtain the inheritance of the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal?

Jian Xingchen's eyes flickered slightly.

Apart from the statue of the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal, there was no other valuable information in this hall.

and so……

If the legacy of the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal truly exists here, it must be related to the statue in front of us!

Jian Xingchen stared at the statue of the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal for a long time.

Just as he was about to make his next move, he suddenly sensed something and turned around sharply to look at the entrance of the main hall.

A figure appeared directly in Jian Xingchen's line of sight.

The figure that suddenly appeared was none other than Ye Changtian, who had just entered the main hall!

"How...how is this possible?"

Jian Xingchen stared at Ye Changtian, who had suddenly appeared, a look of disbelief appearing in his eyes.

He clearly hadn't expected it.

Aside from Lu Li of the Li Huo Sect, there were actually other people from the three major sects who could keep up with him and pass the test outside the hall to enter the main hall in such a short time.

That was a miscalculation.

"Kid, you've got some skills. You actually managed to get into this hall."

Jian Xingchen stared at Ye Changtian, a hint of cold killing intent faintly emanating from his eyes.

"What, do you feel that I threaten your chance to obtain the inheritance of the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal, so you're resorting to your old tricks again to eliminate this threat first?"

Sensing Jian Xingchen's killing intent, Ye Changtian couldn't help but smile calmly.

"You?"

Jian Xingchen glanced at Ye Changtian with disdain, his arrogant voice resounding:

"Although I don't know how you entered the main hall, you are not qualified to compete with me for the inheritance of the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal."

"Of the three sects in the Northern Region, if there is anyone who can gain the approval of the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal, who else but me?"

He is the number one genius of the Star Sword Sect in this era.

Although Jian Xingchen was arrogant, he did have the right to be arrogant.

He not only possesses an exceptional spiritual root, one in ten thousand, but also has a natural sword physique, giving him a unique advantage in the path of swordsmanship.

The Azure Lotus Sword Immortal was also a sword cultivator.

All aspects.

He is undoubtedly the most suitable person to inherit the legacy of the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal!

Jian Xingchen immediately ignored Ye Changtian and stepped forward, bowing respectfully to the statue of the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal.

"Jian Xingchen pays respects to the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal. I humbly request that you bestow upon me your legacy, for I will surely carry it forward and make it flourish!"

hum!

As soon as Jian Xingchen said this...

A faint blue light suddenly appeared on the statue of the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal.

next second.

A figure in green robes slowly emerged from the statue.

His ethereal eyes swept over Jian Xingchen, and he said indifferently, "Top-grade spiritual root, innate sword body, a promising sword cultivator."

Jian Xingchen was overjoyed: "Thank you for your praise, senior. I will certainly not let you down..."

Just when Jian Xingchen was full of confidence that the inheritance of the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal was rightfully his, the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal interrupted him.

"Go wait over there."

"The wisp of divine consciousness that I left here is almost completely exhausted. If there is no more suitable candidate this time, I will pass on this inheritance to you."

Jian Xingchen, who had already prepared himself to receive the sword immortal's inheritance, was suddenly stunned.

"Senior, what...what do you mean?"

Ye Changtian couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Jian Xingchen, don't you understand?"

"What the Sword Immortal senior means is that you're just a backup option in his eyes, so why don't you obediently go and wait on the sidelines?"
