Immortal Supreme: Sovereign of the Grand Dao

*****************¶¶****************

Heaven Sword City was the capital city within the territory of the Heavenly Sword Sect. It was bustling with powerful cultivators, especially sword cultivators.

Its size only paled in comparison to Hartfield City which was the capital city of the Hartfield Empire. Along the streets you would occasionally see groups of people dressed in a uniform, and a sword strapped at their back or their waist. These were disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect.

After arriving at Heaven Sword City, Arthur and the rest found rented a place within the city's center.

They rented an entire building to themselves. Which cost a lot of gold coins, but they could afford it.

Arthur discussed with the others as finalized his plans. He would take Luke with him as a servant since disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect are allowed to have servants with them.

Helia can not go with him, as then his identity would be revealed, and besides Arthur had other plans for her.

"So you want me to join the royal academy and begin raising a force for you?" Helia asked.

Arthur smiled from where he sat opposite her in an exquisite sitting room, along with Kaiser, Number two, and Number three. Luke was there also, but he refused to sit and resigned to stand behind Arthur.

Although Kaiser and the other two wanted to do the same as though they were competing to show who is more of a servant, Arthur stopped them and focused on what they gathered here for.

"Yes, Helia. Since you can not join me here, staying any further would be useless. Instead, you can join the royal academy where you will get access to the best training and experience on the continent."

"At the same time, you can try raising a force of your own. Although said force will be under me, they do not need to know for now. I have already spoken with the Emperor and he will sign a recommendation letter for you himself," Arthur said as he extended his hand and took a cup from the table in front of him.

He took a sip of its steaming content, tea.

'Hmm, nice tea,' he thought.

"But..." Helia didn't want to separate from Arthur but she understood his intentions.

Upon thinking more, she sighed and agreed with a nod, saying nothing else.

Arthur saw that and continued, "One more thing, you must try to get the attention of the higher-ups. Preferably, it would be best if you become the disciple of one of the supreme elders."

*Gasp!*

"You want me to do what? Do you know how hard it would be to do that? Especially within a place like the Royal Academy that doesn't lack geniuses!" Helia was exasperated.

Arthur's demand for her was just getting higher and higher, and she felt she couldn't keep up.

"Don't worry, Helia. I believe in you," Arthur said with a confident smile and held Helia's hand gently, startling her.

"Wah..." Helia couldn't react properly.

Then she withdrew her hand and blushed a little, "fine, I will do my best!"

After that, she stood up and went to her room.

'Hehehe works every time.'

After that Arthur talked with Kaiser and the rest. Mostly telling Kaiser and the other two what he wanted from them.

It was also at the time that he finally learned the names of Number two, and Number three, Tanik, and Brandon.

Tanik was Number two, and he was a man in his early thirties. While Brandon the youngest of the trio was in his mid-twenties. The three met during an expedition where they almost died from a beast tide attack in the forests.

Ever since then, they became brothers who had each other's back, and they were also like-minded people. The trust between them was something Arthur saw and valued.

"So Kaiser, Tanik, and Brandon, now that you have increased your cultivations. I have a task for you..."

After Arthur finished speaking to the trio, they left to do what he asked of them. Meanwhile, he gave Luke some resources and asked him to go train.

Luke, like him, was also in the spirit condensation realm. And he was in the later stages of it. But even he knew that he could not defeat Arthur.

Knowing how crazy fast his Master's growth is. Luke was eager to train and not fall too far behind. And besides, he has a special cultivation technique that had been passed down from his predecessors.

'I won't let you down, Master,' Luke was determined.

Unbeknownst to Arthur, he had cultivated loyalty beyond his expectations in these four that he had met on his journey.

"Now..."

"Are you ready?" A voice spoke suddenly from behind Arthur.

"What...why do you always do that?" Arthur asked Old Man Whitebeard as he wiped a tiny drop of sweat from his forehead.

"Do what?" Old Man Whitebeard asked in confusion.

"Nevermind...and to answer your question. I will be ready in a week," Arthur said, knowing full well what the old man wanted to know about.

Now that they had arrived at Heaven Sword City where the Heavenly Sword Sect was located. It was now time to enter the sect and get the treasure he was here for.

'And depending on what I am feeling, entering this sect is in line with my fate sense. Meaning, there are more benefits for me than I can think of right now,' Arthur thought as he felt his instincts tingle the good kind of tingle whenever he thinks of entering the sect.

"I see. Do you still not want to be taken in as the disciple of this friend of mine? He is very powerful you know, and he also doesn't care about affiliation so he would be your backer when the time comes for you to handle the matters of the Royal Family," Old Man Whitebeard tried to convince Arthur.

Arthur didn't reply and was feeling indecisive within his heart. He didn't know why, but he felt this innate pride in him whenever he thinks of bowing to someone as a master.

'Where am I getting this pride from? In this world, only those who are strong can be prideful and look down on the heavens. But do I have such an ability?' Arthur wondered to himself.

Old Man Whitebeard took Arthur's silence as disagreement and sighed.

"It's fine. But you have to know, that you will be starting as the lowest outer disciple. And even with your speed of growth, you may not meet the requirements to enter the secret realm the next time it opens."

"I understand," Arthur replied with a confident tone.

After that, Old Man Whitebeard vanished before Arthur could react, and his voice was heard once more.

"See you in a week, when you are done with your preparations!"
