1677 The Frost Sword Physique, the Frost Tribe, Leng Jiufeng

One by one, the members of the Spiritual Sword Tribe started to voice their interest in becoming Chu Kuangren's followers.

After all, it was anything but shameful to become the Heavenly Sword's follower. Besides, it would be the greatest honor of the Spiritual Sword Tribe members!

Chu Kuangren's eyes flickered as he swept his gaze across the crowd of Spiritual Sword Tribe members.

He was going to do some traveling anyway, so it would not be a bad thing to have someone familiar with the Central Heaven Universe be his tour guide. Although Ling Fei did not possess significant strength, he was still one of the top-tiered cultivators among the younger generation of Spiritual Sword Tribe members. At the very least, he was qualified enough to become Chu Kuangren's follower.

"Ling Fei can stay, and the rest of you guys can leave," Chu Kuangren said.

A look of disappointment appeared on the rejected Spiritual Sword Tribe members' faces. On the other hand, Ling Fei's face lit up with joy, and he was beyond excited.

"Stand up," said Chu Kuangren to Ling Fei, who was still kneeling at that time, after everyone left.

"Thank you very much, Heavenly Sword."

"I'll be leaving the Spiritual Sword Tribe for a while to travel. You shall follow me on this journey."

"Very well."

Chu Kuangren went to the Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader and told him about that. The Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader saw no reason to reject Chu Kuangren's request.

"Having recently awakened from a deep slumber, going out to see the world can be a good thing for you. It'll allow you to understand the current situation of the Central Heaven Universe at least," said the Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader.

From what he presumed, Chu Kuangren was a Prodigy that went into a deep slumber in the ancestral land before the Thousand Swords Calamity happened. Since it had been countless years since that incident, he would surely be very unfamiliar with the Central Heaven Universe. Going on a trip would surely broaden his knowledge. It might also provide him an advantage when facing off against the other Prodigies on the Ancient Central Heaven Planet when it opened.

"Oh, right, there's something else. A few days ago, we received news from the Frost Star Planet that someone has awakened the Frost Sword Physique there. Do remember to stop by there along the way. If that person is of any interest to you, do keep him or her by your side in your travels."

The Spiritual Sword Tribe Leader suddenly remembered something and said.

The Frost Sword Planet was one of the subordinate forces of the Ancient Spiritual Sword Planet. Their tribe was a Category Nine Tribe, second only to the King Tribes in the Central Heaven Universe.

As for the Frost Sword Physique, it was a Sword Dao Physique comparable to or, if not, stronger than the Infallible Sword Physique. That made it an extremely rare and precious physique, and those who possess such a physique would surely become on par with the late Chen Feihu if properly nurtured. Hence, the Spiritual Sword Tribe had been paying great attention to that matter. Originally, the Tribe Leader planned to send some men to bring the physique host over. However, since Chu Kuangren was going to do some traveling, the Tribe Leader figured he might as well ask him to go there instead.

The Heavenly Sword's way of Dao was to be the ultimate ruler of all swords, and with the Frost Sword Physique's host by his side, it would surely bring many benefits to the physique's cultivation.

"The Frost Sword Physique, huh? I got it."

Chu Kuangren nodded gently.

After leaving the Ancient Spiritual Sword Planet, Chu Kuangren and Ling Fei both started their journey toward the Frost Sword Planet.

Meanwhile, the Frost Tribe was holding a banquet on the Frost Sword Planet.

The Frost Tribe was the strongest force on the Frost Sword Planet, and the host of the Frost Sword Physique was also a member of that tribe.

The reason the banquet was held was to announce to everyone that a peerless Sword Physique had been awakened in the Frost Tribe. As a result, the physique's host would also be joining the Spiritual Sword Tribe.

After all, the Spiritual Sword Tribe was one of the King Tribes. Having the host of the Sword Physique join them would greatly benefit the Frost Tribe's reputation and standing.

Secondly, the Frost Tribe Leader's thirty-thousand years birthday just so happened to be around the corner, so the banquet was held to celebrate that as well.

"Congratulations, Frost Tribe Leader. It seems that the Frost Tribe has gained another talented cultivator."

"That's right. If Lady Han Xingyu joins the Spiritual Sword Tribe, it would be a wonderful thing indeed. In the future, she would surely stand a chance to become one of the strongest cultivators at the peak of Sword Dao."

"Frost Tribe Leader, the Ice Tribe hereby presents a hundred and fifty kilograms of hundred-thousand-year-old Ethereal Ice. Please accept this wonderful gift."

"Haha! Thanks a lot, Ice Tribe Leader."

Many guests had gathered in the Frost Tribe, where countless banquet tables had been set up. It was a celebration indeed.

Besides the Frost Tribe Leader, a woman who was an exquisitely cold beauty dressed in a long blue dress was welcoming the guests.

Her cultivation level was not high as she was only a mid to high-tier cultivator who recently became a Gilded Immortal amongst the Frost Tribe sky-prides. Despite that, no one dared to show her any disrespect.

That woman's name was Han Xingyu, the host of the Frost Sword Physique who was going to join the Spiritual Sword Tribe!

"I'm sorry for troubling you, Xingyu," the Frost Tribe Leader said to the woman with a bitter smile.

She replied by shaking her head. "It's alright. This is something that I should do."

"Congratulations, Sister Xingyu."

At that time, a man walked toward Han Xingyu and congratulated her with cupped fists. He was a sky-pride of the Frost Tribe, whose cultivation level was higher than Han Xingyu.

It was no secret that the man had feelings for her.

However, Han Xingyu merely replied in a platonic tone, especially so since after she awakened her Frost Sword Physique. Both their paths would only diverge more and more after this.

The young man could not help but feel sad at that thought.

Taking the opportunity that she had not left for the Spiritual Sword Tribe yet, he tried to talk to her as much as he could. However, Han Xingyu would only reply politely, obviously to keep her distance from him.

"Haha! So, someone from the Frost Tribe has awakened the Frost Sword Physique, huh? I can't believe she's being sent to the Spiritual Sword Tribe and not returned to the Skysnow Tribe instead! What a f*cking joke!"

At that time, a condescending voice sounded from a distance.

The surrounding temperature plummeted rapidly, and the nearby mountains, lands, and rivers were frozen. The bright and relaxing weather was soon replaced by instant snowfall.

A handsome man with blue hair slowly approached from afar.

The young man's brows were as sharp as swords, and his eyes as cold as winter itself. Waves of chilling freezing qi circulated his body, causing snowfall to occur wherever he went. Every living being was frozen without mercy in his wake, and it was a frightening sight.

"It's him, the Prodigy of the Skysnow Tribe, Leng Jiufeng!"

Everyone looked at the person who arrived in shock.

The Skysnow Tribe was one of the King Tribes, and Leng Jiufeng was a Prodigy of that King Tribe, who was ranked twenty-first on the Heavenly God Leaderboard. That was a higher rank compared to Chen Feihu.

Furthermore, legend had it that the Frost Tribe could trace its origins to the Skysnow Tribe.

Although the Skysnow Tribe and the Spiritual Sword Tribe were not considered enemies, the relationship between both tribes was not friendly, and they would usually not interfere with one another.

Now that Leng Jiufeng had come to the Frost Tribe, everyone could not help but think of the history between the two tribes.

"We do not welcome the Skysnow Tribe here," said the Frost Tribe Leader coldly.

Although the Frost Tribe hailed from the Skysnow Tribe, relations between both tribes were anything but pleasant.

"I heard that long ago, the forefather of the Frost Tribe was once a Prodigy from the Skysnow Tribe. However, he was framed by his tribe members, leading to him having his cultivation level abolished and being excommunicated from the tribe. However, the Frost Tribe Forefather had a fortunate encounter. Not only did he manage to recover his cultivation base, but he even started the Frost Tribe."

"Well, it looks like the legends are true. Otherwise, how would you explain the Frost Tribe Leader's unpleasant attitude."

"Tsk tsk, I bet the Skysnow Tribe must've had their eyes on Han Xingyu's potential. They just want to bring her back to the Skysnow Tribe and nurture her talents there."

"I suppose that must be the case. This is the Frost Sword Physique we're talking about, after all. It's ranked fiftieth out of the three thousand physiques, and I bet even the Skysnow Tribe doesn't have a physique like hers in their ranks."

"It looks like things are going to get interesting."

Everyone discussed, eager to see what was going to happen.

After all, both the Frost Tribe and the Skysnow Tribe were forces that were not to be reckoned with.

"I know that there's some misunderstanding between both our tribes. But as long as Han Xingyu returns to my tribe, we will forget everything that happened in the past. The Frost Tribe might even have the chance to return to the Skysnow Tribe too. What do you think?" Leng Jiufeng said.

He spoke with a high-and-mighty attitude as if he was doing the Frost Tribe a great favor by letting them join the Skysnow Tribe again.

The Frost Tribe Leader's face was as grim as a foggy night. "Sigh. After all these years, it seems like you people from the Skysnow Tribe still can't rid of that disgusting attitude."
