I See the Aura of the Great Emperor in All My Disciples Chapter 1444 - 1444 1444 The Origin of Sword Dao (44)

Chapter 1444: Chapter 1444: The Origin of Sword Dao (4/4) Chapter 1444: Chapter 1444: The Origin of Sword Dao (4/4) Looking at Ai Shouxian and the other Ai Family elders’ faces of helpless wry smiles, Ye Qiubai asked, “Does the head of the Ai Family know any clues about these four materials?”

Ai Shouxian thought for a mont and then responded with a wry smile, “I don’t know about the other three, but I do have so lead on the origin gold.”

“But even if you know, I’m afraid the other party won’t give it to you.”

Ye Qiubai said, “The head of the Ai Family need not worry about that; I will take care of the rest myself.”

Hearing this, Ai Shouxian said, “The origin gold is in the hands of a top-tier force in Yulin City, the Dai Family, and it is also intended for forging a weapon for Dai Heng, a successor of the Dai Family. It’s very important to both Dai Heng and the Dai Family, so I’m afraid there’s little hope.”

At this, Ai Zhi’s face changed. She said by Ye Qiubai’s side, “Dai Heng is the sa person we saw earlier at Elder Mo’s front door…”

Ye Qiubai realized and then said, “We have to try nonetheless. As for the other materials…”

Ai Shouxian directly replied, “As long as the elder can obtain these four materials, the rest will be handled by my Ai Family, guaranteed without any errors.”

Ye Qiubai nodded, “Then I thank you, and rest assured, I will compensate the Ai Family according to the market value.”

Ai Shouxian did not refuse. He knew that soone like Ye Qiubai would not easily owe a favor, although Ai Shouxian did want to make a connection with a strong person like Ye Qiubai. However, everything should be in moderation; exceeding that would change the taste…

One could only progress step by step.

Soon after, Ai Shouxian glanced at Ai Zhi, thought for a mont, and then said to Ye Qiubai, “How about this. In two days, I will make a trip to the Dai Family. Will you accompany then to negotiate this matter?”

Upon hearing this, Ye Qiubai did not refuse.

Under Ai Shouxian’s arrangent, he settled into a quiet courtyard.

Sitting cross-legged in his room, Ye Qiubai took out the Qingyun Order. After carefully sensing the aura on it, he murmured, “Still hovering in that region… It seems that most of the ti is spent in that area. It’s imperative to build this ship now.”

After putting away the token, he took out the Green Cloud Sword.

During his travels, aside from journeying, he was sensing the Dao Law of Sword present in the Green Cloud Sword to refine his Sword Dao.

Previously, unless Ye Qiubai drew out the Green Cloud Sword, he could seldom sense the sword origin power within it, unless he entered the Celestial Realm.

But now, having obtained the Sword Bone and reached the realm of the Tao Rule of Sword,

Ye Qiubai could already feel the occasional wafting of sword origin aura from the Green Cloud Sword.

And as he sensed this sword origin aura, it also flowed into his limbs and bones, rging into the Sword Bone.

Although it was very slight, almost negligible,

the sword origin is indeed what every sword cultivator dreams of obtaining, sothing they seek but cannot achieve.

This thread of sword origin aura, accumulated over these days, had already completely covered the bones of Ye Qiubai’s right hand.

When wielding a sword or executing sword techniques with his right hand, he could now produce attacks that carried a thread of sword origin aura.

It could be said that the pace of his cultivation and advancent in the Sword Dao was also accelerating.

Now, Ye Qiubai could feel that breaking through to the Interdiate Stage of the Ancestral Realm was just a matter of a few days.

If he had not deliberately suppressed it, he might have already broken through.

This was the advantage of a solid Dao foundation.

Although the progress might be slow initially, this advantage would beco increasingly apparent as one reached higher realms.

…

Ye Qiubai continued to cultivate in seclusion for two days.

Until Ai Zhi ca to summon him, he then made his way to the main hall of the Ai Family.

Ai Shouxian said with a smile, “The elder is truly diligent. However, talent alone isn’t enough without such hard work to cultivate to such a realm.”

Ye Qiubai did not respond to Ai Shouxian’s flattery and simply nodded before asking, “Shall we set off now?”

Ai Shouxian nodded, then personally took Ai Zhi and Ye Qiubai to the Dai Family.

The Dai Family’s location was in the most central area of Yulin City.

Here, it was even more bustling.

It could be said that the two great top powers of Yulin City were both situated here.

On their way, Ai Zhi, utterly bored, said, “Ah, in the past, our Ai Family was also in this area, it’s just regrettable that starting from my father’s generation, there began to be a lack of successors, and we started to lose the competition for resources. That’s why we were swallowed up by other powers for quite a lot of resources, leading to our decline to becoming a mid-tier power.”

Speaking of this, Ai Zhi’s eyes dimd, “That’s why the family mbers were forced to arrange a marriage with the Dai Family, hoping to rely on marriage to return the Ai Family to its peak period.”

Up ahead, Ai Shouxian didn’t say anything, but his eyes also held so unwillingness.

If circumstances allowed, would he actually be willing to trade his daughter’s hand in marriage to other families for benefits?

But now, he was the head of the Ai Family.

Facing the current predicant of the Ai Family, there weren’t any better thods to handle it, nor did he have the ability.

With the deterrence of the two great top powers ahead and other mid-range powers or even other powers eyeing covetously from behind,

Up to now, the Ai Family was still in a state of continuously declining strength, and if this continued, the family might well be divided up by other powers!

Don’t forget, this is the Chaos Realm.

However, with the ergence of Ye Qiubai, Ai Shouxian saw a glimr of hope.

Hearing Ai Zhi venting her grievances, Ye Qiubai also felt deeply.

After all, he too had co from a family, and when he had lost all his talent, he was ruthlessly abandoned by the family.

So he softly said, “Don’t let these family matters constrain you. In my view, whether it’s arranged marriages or abandoning other family matters for benefits, these are not lasting solutions, they are rely treating the symptoms and not the root cause. There will co a day when such hidden troubles will erupt, they will be overwheld by the bursting flood, and eventually lead to destruction.”

“Only when you are strong yourself, can you perfectly solve any problem. So, you must work hard in your cultivation, all the more so since your talent is not bad.”

Ai Zhi was overjoyed at these words: “Really?”

Ye Qiubai nodded, “It’s just that you haven’t found your own path yet.”

Hearing this, Ai Shouxian turned to look at Ye Qiubai, “Then, I would ask the senior to spare so ti in the future to give guidance to my daughter.”

Ye Qiubai hesitated for a mont but still nodded his head.

Seeing this, Ai Zhi’s face broke into a joyous smile.

Upon arriving at the Dai Family,

No high-ranking mbers ca out to greet them, only a distant relative from a lesser branch welcod Ai Shouxian and the two others with a cold face.

If this were the heyday, how could they possibly receive such treatnt?

Ai Shouxian didn’t bla the Dai Family, only that he himself lacked the ability.

When they arrived at the grand hall of the Dai Family, the head of the Murong family, several elders, and Dai Heng were all seated there.

Watching Ai Shouxian’s arrival, the head of the Murong family directly said, “Family Head Ai, have you considered it? Can we send out the news of the formal marriage alliance between our two families to the city?”

Ai Shouxian hesitated.

After seeing Ye Qiu and hearing what he had previously said, Ai Shouxian also woke up to the realization.

Relying on his daughter’s marriage to the Dai Family, it was absolutely impossible for the Ai Family to return to its peak.

After thinking for a while, Ai Shouxian glanced at Ye Qiubai and communicated through a transmission, “Could I ask the senior for a favor? From now on, the senior’s affairs will also be those of my Ai Family!”
