Chapter 4167: Perhaps it is because of Jun Wentian’s help that the Jun family cannot produce a secon

Upon hearing this, Ye Guchen's expression remained indifferent.

He and Jun Xiaoyao were close friends.

He also remembered Jun Xiaoyao's help.

But he never intended to take advantage of Jun Xiaoyao's status and reputation.

He never asked Jun Xiaoyao to do anything for him.

True friends will not hold each other back simply for personal gain.

Ye Guchen remained silent.

"This is what Murong Wuji, a descendant of the Wuji lineage, said."

“Back at Sword Emperor Mountain, you and Jun Xiaoyao certainly stole the show.”

"However, is it possible that Jun Xiaoyao can rival the Sword Ancestor of the Mortal Realm?"

Beside Murong Wuji and Lu Jingxiao, the other sword masters from different lineages were also Daoists.

"Indeed, the Sword Ancestor of the Human World was a figure of great stature, a role model for us sword cultivators."

"Even the Sword God of the Jun family can only be compared to him."

"As for Jun Xiaoyao, he is not even a sword cultivator and does not specialize in the sword path, yet he was able to reach such a level. I think there must be something fishy about it."

"Perhaps it was a remnant of Jun Wentian's methods that secretly helped him."

Several sword masters spoke, their voices all carrying a cold tone.

The events at Sword Emperor Mountain shook the resolve of many sword cultivators.

It makes them wonder how an outsider could reach a level that even experts can't achieve.
Can talent truly surpass hard work?
Therefore, in such situations, some people subconsciously find reasons and excuses to comfort themselves.

For example, it was the methods that Jun Wentian left behind at Sword Emperor Mountain that secretly helped Jun Xiaoyao.

Because at that time, Jun Wentian's illusory image did indeed manifest.

Perhaps he secretly used some means to enable Jun Xiaoyao to have such an amazing performance.

This conjecture was widely accepted by many sword cultivators.

After all, if they don't agree, their Dao hearts will collapse.

An amateur, not even a swordsman, can easily surpass their countless years of arduous cultivation.

Who can bear this?

That's just how human nature is.

However, upon hearing these words...

Ye Guchen's gaze was extremely sharp.

In an instant, Lu Jingxiao, Murong Wuji, and the others all felt an astonishing sword intent.

That sword intent gave them all a feeling of goosebumps.

"I don't care how you treat me."

"But slandering Ye's friend is not allowed."

Ye Guchen stood up, the invisible sword energy swirling around him seemingly drawing upon the power of heaven and earth.

Just then, a calm voice suddenly rang out.

"I thought all sword cultivators were as upright and honest as Brother Ye."

"I never expected that the Sword Clan would have a bunch of gossipy people like you who only know how to talk behind people's backs."

"who!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Jingxiao and Murong Wuji's expressions darkened.

Then, they turned to look, and their faces froze instantly.

In the distance, two figures, a man and a woman, appeared.

It was Jun Xiaoyao and Qiu Muyu.

"you……"

Lu Jingxiao, Murong Wuji, and the others choked up slightly.

This is a reference to Cao Cao, who arrived as soon as he was mentioned.

"Brother Jun."

Ye Guchen was surprised to see Jun Xiaoyao arrive, and then a rare smile appeared on his usually unchanging face.

Jun Xiaoyao bypassed Lu Jingxiao, Murong Wuji and the others, and came to Ye Guchen's side.

"Brother Ye, it's been a long time. I hope you've been well."

"Brother Jun, you're such a busy man, it's rare for you to come all this way." Ye Guchen smiled.

That fierce, lone wolf-like aura has also somewhat dissipated.

After all, Jun Xiaoyao was the only friend and rival he truly acknowledged.

Jun Xiaoyao smiled as well.

He doesn't have any male friends, nor does he deliberately try to make friends with anyone.

But Ye Guchen's temperament was something he greatly admired.

Others might feel awe towards Jun Xiaoyao due to his status or the distance between them.

But Ye Guchen would never do that.

Even if Jun Xiaoyao is incredibly talented, he will always regard Jun Xiaoyao as a rival to be caught up with.

This is what is most precious to Jun Xiaoyao now.

What he needs is someone who can treat him as an equal.

Not those who look up to him.

"It seems like someone is trying to cause you trouble?"

Jun Xiaoyao glanced indifferently at Lu Jingxiao and the others.

That glance made their hearts tighten slightly.

Indeed, they questioned Jun Xiaoyao.

However, the question lies in Jun Xiaoyao's performance in swordsmanship.

Jun Xiaoyao's strength is not limited to swordsmanship alone.

No one should underestimate a Chaos entity.

They simply felt that Jun Xiaoyao's reputation in swordsmanship was somewhat undeserved.

In other respects, Jun Xiaoyao remains the pinnacle of the younger generation.

"They're nothing but clowns gossiping behind people's backs," Ye Guchen said calmly.

These words caused Lu Jingxiao and the others to frown.

However, with Jun Xiaoyao present, they no longer expressed their true feelings as freely as before.

This scene secretly alarmed many sword cultivators in the distance.

Lu Jingxiao and the others were, after all, descendants of the Chixiao and Wuji lineages.

Even such a person dared not openly confront Jun Xiaoyao.

"Jun Xiaoyao, this is the back mountain of my Sword Clan. How can you possibly enter?"

Lu Jingxiao's expression turned slightly cold.

Because of Jun Xiaoyao, the reputation of their Chixiao lineage among the Sword Clan has plummeted.

They naturally had no goodwill towards Jun Xiaoyao.

Jun Xiaoyao didn't say anything, but Qiu Muyu spoke up.

"Young Master Jun is an honored guest of our Sword Clan. It was thanks to Young Master Jun that the calamity of the Demon Sword King was discovered in time."

"The elders of the Sword Clan also agree to his entry. Do you have any objections?"

These words made Lu Jingxiao and the others' expressions freeze.

They exchanged glances but said nothing more.

Turned around and left.

After moving a certain distance away.

Lu Jingxiao's face darkened considerably as he asked, "Why did Jun Xiaoyao come to my Sword Clan at this time?"

"Could it be that he covets my Sword Clan's Heavenly Dao Sword Valley?"

Murong Wuji said, "Perhaps it's possible, but to be honest, I do hope he can enter the Heavenly Dao Sword Valley."

"Oh?" Lu Jingxiao said.

"I simply cannot believe that someone who does not practice the way of the sword can stand shoulder to shoulder with the Sword Ancestor of the Mortal Realm."

"At the deepest part of the Heavenly Dao Sword Valley, there is a wisp of sword dao rules left behind by the Sword Ancestor."

"If Jun Xiaoyao is suppressed by him at that time, his legend will be destroyed without any further evidence."

Lu Jingxiao nodded slightly: "Indeed, if Jun Xiaoyao enters, he will understand that those who are not sword cultivators cannot enter the Heavenly Dao Sword Valley at all."

"And don't forget, Yu Ya and the others will also be coming. I just don't know if Wei Nantian will come," Murong Wuji said.

Yu Ya is a descendant of the Taixu Sword Emperor lineage of the Sword Clan, and his cultivation level is something even they greatly admire.

Wei Nantian, on the other hand, has an even more impressive background; he is a descendant of the Divine Hao Sword Emperor lineage.

Both the Taixu lineage and the Shenhao lineage are extremely prosperous lineages within the Sword Clan.

It may even surpass the Chixiao lineage and the Wuji lineage.

More importantly, Wei Nantian had also comprehended a portion of the legacy left by the Human Sword Ancestor.

Back then, when they learned that Jun Xiaoyao was on Sword Emperor Mountain and was as famous as the Sword Ancestor of the Human World.

That Wei Nantian once made a statement.

There can only be one Sword Ancestor among mortals.

The Jun family can never produce another Sword God. (End of Chapter)
