Chapter 317: Arrogant Fairy Yunyao
Qinglan Sword Sect.
A delicate and pretty little girl, no more than twelve or thirteen years old, was led by the Elder in charge across the martial arts demonstration field, heading straight for the Sword Saint Hall.
The girl's eyes never left the swordsmen on the martial arts field, whose sword auras crisscrossed. Her expression was filled with a seriousness that did not match her age.
In no time at all, the two arrived at the Sword Saint Hall.
The Elder pushed the door open and entered, "Senior Brother, I've brought the person."
Inside the Sword Saint Hall, a giant sword over five meters long was enshrined. In front of the giant sword stood a tall and robust elder.
His hair and beard were all white, and just standing there, he gave off the impression of a sharp sword drawn from its sheath. A mere glance at him felt like it could pierce one's eyes. He was the current Qinglan Sword Saint.
The little girl entered the hall.
The Sword Saint raised his eyes, his gaze like lightning, sweeping over the girl. "Are you a celestial being from the heavens?"
"Yunyao, daughter of the Celestial Emperor, greets the Qinglan Sword Saint," the little girl said, looking at the Sword Saint without moving a muscle. "Qinglan Sword Saint, I have descended to the mortal realm on royal orders to eradicate the Heavenly Demons invading the human world and restore peace. I have come to the Qinglan Sword Sect to seek your assistance. In the future, when I return to the heavenly realm, I can request my father to grant you entry into the heavenly realm to cultivate the Heavenly Dao Sword."The Elder's eye twitched involuntarily. If he hadn't verified that this little girl indeed possessed extraordinary recovery abilities similar to those described in legends of celestial beings and demons, he would never have brought this arrogant person into the sect.
"You claim to be the daughter of the Celestial Emperor. What proof do you have?" The Sword Saint scrutinized the little girl and asked.
"Just let me practice swordsmanship with you. Within a month, I can master all the sword techniques of your sect. That will be my proof," the little girl said arrogantly.
The Sword Saint looked at the little girl, shook his head, and suddenly laughed. "Are all daughters of the Celestial Emperor as arrogant as you?"

"No, the Emperor has ten children, each with different traits. The Celestial Emperor has three sons and seven daughters, each with their own personality—some brave, some gentle, some greedy, and some kind. Only my trait is arrogance," the little girl said, raising her chin. "Sword Saint, arrogance is my innate nature, something I cannot change. I ask for your understanding."
"Fine, I'll assume you come from the celestial realm," the Sword Saint laughed. "Let me ask you, what is the heavenly realm like?"
"The heavenly realm spans millions of miles, filled with countless rare treasures and exotic beasts, and rich in spiritual power. Even an ordinary mortal, by taking a breath of the celestial realm's spiritual energy, can cleanse their body of impurities and achieve an innate physique."
The little girl glanced at the Sword Saint and continued, "Under my father's command are ten Celestial Masters, ten Celestial Kings, ten Marshals, and countless celestial soldiers and generals. A cultivation level like yours is at most equivalent to a celestial soldier. Without my father's intervention, even I could blow you away thirty-six thousand miles with a single breath."
The Sword Saint looked at the little girl, a mischievous expression on his face. "Is there more?"
"In the heavenly realm, celestial beings have lifespans of ten thousand years. My father shares the same lifespan as the heavens and the earth; as long as the world exists, he will not perish," the little girl continued, looking at the Sword Saint. "The celestial realm has white jade fruits that can extend one's lifespan by ten thousand years with a single bite; there are nectar springs that can solidify one's soul with a single sip. Sword Saint, if you help me eradicate the Heavenly Demons, I can guarantee you an eternal life and ensure the Qinglan Sword Sect's prosperity for millennia."
"What is the Heavenly Dao Sword?" the Sword Saint asked.
"Sword intent," the little girl replied. "The Heavenly Dao Sword is the sword of the heavens, capable of cutting through the heavens, the earth, and demons. It is invincible and unstoppable. Once this sword is unleashed, all other swords bow in submission."
"If the heavenly realm is so powerful, why not just send a few celestial soldiers to the mortal realm to eliminate the demons? Why seek the help of the Qinglan Sword Sect?" the Sword Saint asked with a smile, clearly not taking the so-called Heavenly Dao Sword seriously.
"When celestial beings or demons enter the mortal realm, they lose all their cultivation and must start from scratch," the little girl explained. "I chose the Qinglan Sword Sect not because I need your help, but because the Qinglan Sword Sect needs me. Sword Saint, without my assistance, the day the other Heavenly Demons grow stronger will be the day the Sword Sect perishes."
"Nonsense," the Elder couldn't hold back any longer.
The Sword Saint waved his hand at him. "Why do you say that?"
"The high-ranking officials of the Chongming Kingdom have been possessed by Heavenly Demons. Given time, they will surely use the nation's power to eliminate all sects that pose a threat to them," the little girl calmly looked at the Sword Saint. "Princess Luo Shuang, a mere woman, has stirred up the world. If you say she doesn't have the support of Heavenly Demons, even ghosts wouldn't believe it.
Sword Saint, while we've been talking, my own strength has already tripled. Can you imagine how fast those Heavenly Demons wreaking havoc in the world are growing? Do you truly believe the Qinglan Sword Sect is invincible?"
The Sword Saint frowned and looked at the little girl, a look of surprise in his eyes.
"Sword Saint, there are eight hundred Heavenly Demons and three hundred celestial beings in the world," the little girl continued. "Even someone like me, who has possessed a little girl's body, has come straight to the Qinglan Sword Sect. Do you think other Heavenly Demons won't go to the Fist Sect or the Technique Sect? If one day, the grown Heavenly Demons attack the Qinglan Sword Sect, how will you respond?"
The Sword Saint looked at the little girl, proudly saying, "If any Heavenly Demons come, I will cut them down with a single sword."
He raised his eyelids.
In the Sword Saint Hall, sword auras crisscrossed, countless transparent sword auras densely surrounding the little girl. If she moved, she would be sliced into countless pieces by the sword auras.
"Fairy Yunyao, how does my sword compare to the Heavenly Dao Sword?" the Sword Saint asked. "Can it cut down Heavenly Demons?"
"To cut down the current me, of course, there's no problem," Yunyao replied without changing her expression. "If the Qinglan Sword Saint teaches me this sword technique, in a month, I can fight you to a draw. In two months, I can defeat ten of you. Sword Saint, do you dare to bet with me?"
"Fairy Yunyao, why is your back wet?" the Sword Saint asked with a teasing smile.
"The Heavenly Demons are not yet eradicated. If I die, I will have no face to see my father when I return to the celestial realm," Yunyao coldly glanced at the Sword Saint. "I have seen a Celestial King cut down a hundred thousand Demon Heads with a single sword. Do you really think I would be scared by this childish sword technique? Sword Saint, you should think about how to deal with the invasion of billions of Heavenly Demons if the mortal realm falls..."
The Sword Saint laughed heartily and waved his hand, dispersing the sword auras. "Not bad, not bad. You have some courage, little girl. I don't care if you're a demon or a celestial. If you acknowledge me as your master, I will teach you swordsmanship."
"You are not worthy to be my master," the little girl frowned. "To be my master and teach me swordsmanship, at least a Celestial King is required."
"..." The Sword Saint frowned.
"Qinglan Sword Saint, I have already said, we are in a cooperative relationship. You teach me swordsmanship and help me eliminate the Heavenly Demons. I will take you to the celestial realm to learn the Heavenly Dao Sword. If you are attached to the mortal realm, I will help the Qinglan Sword Sect unify the world," Yunyao said. "Moreover, one day, I will leave this world. Being my master for a few months or years is meaningless and will only bring you trouble."
The Sword Saint's eyes remained on the little girl. With every word she spoke, her aura grew stronger, just like the characteristics of the Heavenly Demons described by the Chongming Kingdom. He smiled, "So arrogant, interesting, interesting. Fine, Yunyao, I won't take you as a disciple, but I will teach you swordsmanship."
"Thank you, Sword Saint," the little girl nodded at the Sword Saint. "Sword Saint, you can instruct your disciples to spread the phrase 'The Celestial King covers the Earth Tiger' among the people. The wider the spread, the better..."
"And why is that?" the Sword Saint asked.
"This is a military order to summon other celestial beings," Yunyao explained. "Anyone who dares to come to the Qinglan Sword Sect and knows the phrase, you can bring them to me. If the phrase is correct, you can keep them to help eradicate the Heavenly Demons. If the phrase is wrong, please cut them down with a single sword..."
The power went out, so I typed this on my phone. I'm so diligent ┭┮﹏┭┮
