Chapter 3: Chapter 3: The Youngest Elder in History

“Gui Lan, it’s all up to you to ensure that our Gui family can survive this crisis. If you can enter the Profound Sword Sect, then Duan Li and the Witherwood Gate Sect behind him won’t dare to do anything to our Gui family!”

Behind Gui Yiyi stood an old man. He was not weak. He was at the peak of the fourth level Soul Condensation Realm, and the second elder of the Gui clan. His position was only second to the patriarch and grand elder of the Gui clan. This time, he was in charge of leading the group of Gui clan disciples to the Profound Sword Sect.

The Second Elder spoke, but he did not say those words to Gui Yiyi. Instead, he said those words to a blue-robed youth on the other side.

The young man’s name was Gui Lan, the son of the Gui family’s grand elder. At the same time, he was the Gui family’s number one genius!

Although Gui Yiyi’s status was the most honorable among the disciples of the Gui family, in terms of talent, she was not the best. She was not even able to enter the top three.

“Second Elder, don’t worry. I will enter the Profound Sword Sect!”

Gui Lan smiled. Not only was he the number one genius of the Gui family, but he was also the number one genius of Half Moon City. In his opinion, joining the Profound Sword Sect was not a difficult matter.

Gui Yiyi pursed her lips when she heard this. Her eyes were somewhat lonely.

.

That’s right… Gui Lan was the one who had the most hope of entering the Profound Sword Sect.

‘I…’

It had to be said that even though she was the daughter of the clan head, Gui Lan’s talent was higher than hers.

As the daughter of the family head, she did not inherit her father’s outstanding talent and enjoyed the family’s best resources. However, among the younger generation of the Gui family, she couldn’t even rank amongst the top three…

It wasn’t that Gui Yiyi didn’t work hard. She had already worked very hard. From the beginning of her cultivation, she never dared to relax. However, the talent gap wasn’t something that could be made up by hard work…

“Entering the Profound Sword Sect? Hahaha…Gui Lan, are you even worthy?”

Right at this moment, a mocking voice sounded from not too far away. The Gui family’s people only needed to hear the voice to know who it was.

“What? Wang Fei, I’m not worthy? Are you worthy? Loser!”, Gui Lan coldly looked at a black-robed youth not far from him.

The young man’s name was Wang Fei, from one of the three great clans of Half Moon City. He was a member of the Wang Family, and he was also the leader of the Wang Family’s younger generation.

In the past, Wang Fei was the number one person in the younger generation of Half Moon City, but later on, Gui Lan rose and suppressed him.

Whether it was his talent or his strength, he and Gui Lan were no different.

“Heh, Gui Lan, what are you so proud of? When I enter the Profound Sword Sect, the gap between us will be completely widened. At next year’s Half Moon City Grand Competition, I will let you know that being in the lead for a moment is nothing. Whoever laughs, in the end, is the most important.” Wang Fei was not angry but continued to laugh.

“Oh? I don’t know where you came from. However, since you can enter, I can naturally enter as well.” Gui Lan snorted coldly. His talent was above Wang Fei’s. If Wang Fei could enter, there was no reason why he couldn’t.

“Then we’ll wait and see. I’m looking forward to your expression when the time comes. Hahaha…” Wang Fei laughed and glanced at Gui Yiyi. “Yiyi, how is it? As long as you agree to marry me, then we’ll be a family by then. When I become a disciple of the Profound Sword Sect, I’ll ensure that your Gui family is safe and sound!”

The matter of Wang Fei’s love for Gui Yiyi was no secret in Half Moon City. He had gone to the Gui family more than once to propose marriage, but he had been rejected by Gui Yiyi’s father in a domineering manner.

Gui Yiyi’s mother passed away not long after she was born. Her father only had a daughter, her, and he was extremely fond of her. He would never force Gui Yiyi to do anything that she did not like.

Gu Yiyi shot a cold glance at Wang Fei. She did not say anything. Instead, she looked at the high platform where the higher-ups of the Profound Sword Sect were located in front of the square.

It was because the appearance of a single person had attracted her attention.

“Who is that?”

“A man is so handsome. Tsk…”

“Eh? Who is he? He stood beside the Sect Master?”

This ‘young man’ who had appeared a little later was naturally Xuan Yi.

His appearance once again caused quite a stir in the square.

Quite a few young girls who had just opened their hearts were stunned when they saw Xuan Yi’s handsome appearance, and their eyes were filled with starlight.

Xuan Yi was indeed very handsome.

However, what truly made people care about was not his appearance.

Instead… Xuan Yi stood beside Jian Nantian!

Who was Jian Nantian?

The Master of the Profound Sword Sect!

Not everyone had the right to stand beside him.

Before Xuan Yi appeared, there were only two people on the left and right sides of Jian Nantian. These two people were the two vice sect masters of the Profound Sword Sect. No matter who they were, they were all at the level of giants of the Profound Sword Sect.

Some people who didn’t know Xuan Yi were shocked and confused.

This handsome young man? Who was it?

The son of the Profound Sword Sect’s Master?

No, even the Sect Master’s son does not have the qualifications to stand beside him, right?

“Heh, you’re ignorant, right? This person is called Xuan Yi. Although he is young, he is an elder of the Profound Sword Sect! Furthermore, he’s a Nascent Soul Realm expert!”

“Nascent Soul Realm? The same level as Grandmaster Jian Nantian? He doesn’t seem that much older than me, how could that be possible!?”

“There’s nothing impossible. This Elder Xuan is indeed a Nascent Soul Realm expert. Not only is he the youngest elder in the history of the Profound Sword Sect, but he’s also the only Nascent Soul Elder in the Profound Sword Sect.” Another person affirmed.

“How do you know?” Some still didn’t believe it.

“I naturally know that because my brother is an inner disciple of the Profound Sword Sect!” That person said proudly.

Within the Profound Sword Sect, there were tens of thousands of disciples with distinct levels. The disciples were divided into three levels: Outer, Inner, and Personal. For example, after a series of selections, even if they entered the Profound Sword Sect, apart from those who were lucky enough to be chosen by the elders to become personal disciples, the rest were all outer disciples.

The position of an inner disciple in the Profound Sword Sect was already quite high.

This was also the reason why he had such a proud expression on his face.

An elder brother who was an inner sect disciple was indeed extraordinary.

As expected, when this person revealed that his elder brother was an inner disciple of the Profound Sword Sect, numerous gazes of envy and reverence were immediately shot over.
