Land Sword Immortal: Eighty Years as the Guardian of the Sword Pavilion Chapter 269 – Changsheng, this is your grandmaster

If I were to ntion these past events to Elder Lin, it would be like reopening old wounds.

As a disciple, how could I do sothing so unfilial?

ng Fan continued to polish the long swords. When he reached the thirteenth one, another Sword Wraith mory surged into his mind.

This ti, the mory wasn't noteworthy and wasn't worth ntioning.

After polishing twenty Spiritual Swords, ng Fan returned to his room and began his cultivation in peace.

Previously, if ng Fan had co across such major secrets, he would have been nervous.

But now, he was used to it.

Knowing too many secrets isn't necessarily a good thing, but as long as he remained calm and didn't expose himself, it would be fine.

***

The next day, ng Fan went as usual to guide Liu Yanping, Zhao Jin, and Liu Yue'er in their cultivation.

Calculating the ti, he should be able to complete Zhao Jin and Liu Yue'er's training tasks before the appointnt with his master.

As for Liu Yanping, there was no rush.

After all, rushing wouldn't help!

In the evening, there was a knock on the door of the Sword Pavilion.

ng Fan scanned with his Divine Sense and found Liu Yanping and Shu Changsheng standing outside.

"Why are you here?" ng Fan opened the door, sowhat surprised.

He had just returned from teaching Liu Yanping during the day and would continue teaching her tomorrow. What couldn't wait until tomorrow that they had to co tonight?

Liu Yanping looked at ng Fan with a complicated expression.

"If there's sothing to say, co in and say it. Don't just stand outside." ng Fan said, noticing Liu Yanping's expression.

"I've thought about it for a long ti. Since Changsheng has a Spiritual Root, following would only hold him back. I want him to stay with you and grow in the Sword Pavilion." Liu Yanping hesitated before speaking.

She wasn't comfortable entrusting Shu Changsheng to anyone else, but she felt at ease leaving him with ng Fan.

During Shu Changsheng's ti at the Shu Mountain Sword Sect, aside from herself and Yang Shishi, ng Fan had been the kindest to him.

And following either her or Yang Shishi wouldn't be beneficial for his developnt.

Moreover, Shu Changsheng always called ng Fan "Master."

If he could stay in the Sword Pavilion with ng Fan and truly beco his disciple, he would not only have a monstrously talented master but also a top-tier grandmaster in Elder Lin.

Growing up in such an environnt, Shu Changsheng would undoubtedly beco a chosen one with boundless prospects!

ng Fan didn't respond to Liu Yanping imdiately but instead turned to Shu Changsheng.

After a mont of silence, he asked Shu Changsheng, "Changsheng, do you want to follow your Sister Liu, or do you want to stay with in the Sword Pavilion?"

He didn't want to make this decision based on Liu Yanping's words; he wanted to respect Shu Changsheng's own thoughts and opinions.

Besides, even if Shu Changsheng continued to follow Liu Yanping, ng Fan would still guide him.

Of course, it wouldn't be as extensive as if he stayed in the Sword Pavilion.

It wasn't that ng Fan was being secretive; he was just lazy and rarely left the Sword Pavilion unless necessary.

Shu Changsheng looked at Liu Yanping, then at ng Fan.

After just a few breaths, he decisively said, "Master, I want to stay with you in the Sword Pavilion!"

In the past, Sister Liu protected him; in the future, he wanted to protect Sister Liu.

Only by working hard to beco stronger would he have the ability to protect her!

And staying in the Sword Pavilion with his master was the only way to truly beco strong.

Although Shu Changsheng was young, he understood many things very clearly.

He was indeed a promising talent!

After Liu Yanping left, ng Fan arranged a room for Shu Changsheng.

After settling him in, ng Fan first took Shu Changsheng to et Elder Lin.

"Changsheng, this is your grandmaster. Rember to respect him even more than you respect ." ng Fan said to Shu Changsheng.

Upon hearing this, Shu Changsheng imdiately knelt and perford a grand salute to Elder Lin.

"Grand-disciple Changsheng, greets Grandmaster!"

Elder Lin glared at ng Fan and said irritably, "Didn't I tell you before? Your disciple doesn't automatically beco my grand-disciple; he has to pass my test first!"

Kneeling on the ground, Shu Changsheng felt a bit nervous, thinking that this grandmaster didn't seem to like him, which made him worried.

Thinking this, he remained kneeling, not daring to get up.

ng Fan glanced at Elder Lin and said, "Master, don't put on airs here; you're scaring the kid!"

"What do you an, putting on airs? Accepting a disciple is a very serious matter."

"Alright, since you ntioned a test, why don't you go ahead and test my disciple now?"

"Now?"

"Now!"

Elder Lin, having nothing better to do all day, didn't mind the timing.

He imdiately began testing Shu Changsheng.

As the Sword Elder of the Sword Pavilion, he naturally wouldn't test Shu Changsheng on alchemy.

The tests were all about sword techniques, sword arts, sword principles, and so on...

***

Half an hour later!

"Good grand-disciple, from today onwards, your grandmaster will personally guide your cultivation." Elder Lin's face was beaming with joy, unable to contain his smile.

Because Shu Changsheng was simply too outstanding, exactly to his liking.

Elder Lin was extrely satisfied with the sword dao tests he had just conducted on Shu Changsheng, to the utmost degree!

Admittedly, Shu Changsheng, no matter how excellent, was still not as good as ng Fan, falling short by so margin.

But Elder Lin actually preferred Shu Changsheng more!

Because ng Fan was too monstrously talented. Teaching ng Fan not only lacked any sense of achievent but often felt like a blow to his self-esteem.

Only teaching a normal genius like Shu Changsheng gave him a sense of accomplishnt.

However, it wouldn't be long before Elder Lin realized that Shu Changsheng was also not normal.

His sense of accomplishnt wouldn't last long!

"Master, as the grandmaster, shouldn't you show so appreciation? You scared Changsheng earlier with your stern face; shouldn't you give him sothing to comfort him?" ng Fan said with a smile to Elder Lin.

"You brat!!!" Elder Lin was helpless. This rascal was even trying to extort him.

But he really liked Shu Changsheng. Looking at the six-year-old Shu Changsheng, he seed to see a young Tianxing.

In the next mont, a pendant appeared in Elder Lin's hand, which he handed to Shu Changsheng.

"Changsheng, this is a Sacred Heart Jade Pendant. Wear it close to your body and never take it off. This pendant not only calms the mind but also enhances your comprehension."

"Thank you, Grandmaster!" Shu Changsheng quickly took the pendant and bowed to Elder Lin.

ng Fan couldn't help but feel a bit envious, pouting as he said, "Master, you've been hiding such a good thing all this ti?

If I could enhance my comprehension a bit more, I might have reached the Condensation Pill Realm by now. You're too biased!

Uh, you must have more than one of these pendants, right?"

"Nonsense!" Elder Lin imdiately got angry.

"With your level of enlightennt, do you even need enhancent? You can master any sword technique after seeing it once. If you enhance it any further, aren't you afraid your head will explode? Giving you this pendant would be a real waste!!"

To be fair, ng Fan's enlightennt in sword dao was indeed at the ceiling level, with no room for improvent.
