Yang Fei refined Jian Xu's Divine Thought and placed the Qing Xu Sword before Liu Chan, speaking calmly.

"Focus your mind on the Qing Xu Sword, then perform a blood oath to claim it."

Liu Chan saw her master's serious expression and dared not ask more.

Following the Magical Decree taught by Yang Fei, she concentrated her mind, finally biting her fingertip and letting a drop of fresh blood fall onto the Qing Xu Sword.

This drop of blood contained Liu Chan's will and mind.

The blood fell onto the Qing Xu Sword like a drop of water soaking into dry soil, quickly embedding into its blade.

The blade of the Qing Xu Sword was left with only a faint crimson stain.

Yang Fei looked at Liu Chan with a serious expression.

"How do you feel now? Can you control the Qing Xu Sword?"

Liu Chan silently focused her mind, and after a moment, she raised her head, her eyes full of surprise.

"Master, I feel like the Qing Xu Sword has become a part of me. I should be able to control it now."

After speaking, Liu Chan willed the Qing Xu Sword, and sure enough, it slowly floated in the air, spiraling as her mind directed.

Yang Fei nodded and smiled. This Qing Xu Sword was the first Divine Sword of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect, distinctly different from other Magic Artifacts.

In the future, as Liu Chan's cultivation grows, this Qing Xu Sword might transform into a magical treasure or even a spiritual treasure under the nourishment of her spiritual energy.

That will be the time when Liu Chan and the Qing Xu Sword will truly display their Divine Might.

Liu Chan felt incredibly fresh as she wielded the Magic Artifact for the first time.

The Qing Xu Sword soared gracefully through the air like a dragon, turning up and down, suddenly darting toward a massive stone.

Whoosh!

Only a sound of air being sliced was heard, and the house-sized stone was cut into two, the cut smooth as a mirror.

Liu Chan couldn't help but be astounded.

All these years, following Jian Xu to learn the Sword Dao, she only knew how to sit in meditation and practice Qi Cultivation, never imagining she possessed such terrifying destructive power.

Only today did Liu Chan understand the profound intent behind Yang Fei letting her learn the Tao from Jian Xu.

Yang Fei, however, shook his head from the side: "You haven't yet unleashed the Qing Xu Sword's true power."

The greatest Divine Skills of the Qing Xu Sword are found within the Qing Xu Sword Domain.

When the Sword Domain forms, with a single thought, countless swords arise, making you almost invincible within its confines.

Liu Chan recalled the power of the Qing Xu Sword Domain exhibited by Jian Xu, feeling a sense of unease.

Even someone as skilled as Yang Fei was harmed by the Qing Xu Sword Domain, showcasing the power of this superior Magic Artifact.

Under Yang Fei's guidance, Liu Chan mastered the Qing Xu Sword.

The Qing Xu Sword transformed into a ray of green light, disappearing into the void.

Yet within several hundred meters centered around Liu Chan, specks of green light appeared.

With a thought, numerous longswords emerged in the air, all avatars of the Qing Xu Sword.

This was vastly different from the Geng Metal Sword condensed by Yang Fei using the Power of Myriad Realms, and its power was even greater.

Liu Chan was startled, feeling both shocked and delighted.

These Longswords surrounded Liu Chan like slaves serving their master, moving as she willed.

Yang Fei nodded and smiled, although Liu Chan's skills were still shallow, far from Jian Xu's invincible level.

Nevertheless, she had no problem suppressing the entire Ten Thousand Sword Sect.

Once Liu Chan became familiarized with the Qing Xu Sword, Yang Fei spoke calmly.

"Jian Xu was a generation Sword Virtuoso, though he coveted your Heavenly Secret Sword. You still learned the Superior Sword Path from him."

"Now that you've inherited his Qing Xu Sword, the rites between a master and disciple shouldn't be dismissed; you should pay respects to him as a student."

After hearing Yang Fei's words, Liu Chan knelt on the ground and respectfully bowed nine times to Jian Xu's corpse before standing up.

After Liu Chan finished bowing, Yang Fei spoke again, gently.

"Alright, the base of the mountain is likely in chaos. You should gather the disciples and announce the succession of the new Sect Master."

Liu Chan hesitated for a moment, then felt a bit uneasy and timid.

But thinking about helping Yang Fei, Liu Chan mustered her courage and nodded slightly.

"Alright, I'll summon them now."

After speaking, Liu Chan rummaged through Jian Xu's belongings and found a Jade Talisman, which she promptly crushed.

A small sword of red light flew from the Jade Talisman, rushing straight to the clouds, its blade emitting a piercing wail from its seven small holes.

Liu Chan explained to Yang Fei.

"This is the Ten Thousand Sword Sect's urgent signal, only the Sect Leader has the authority to send it."

Yang Fei nodded, then suddenly shimmered, vanishing into the void.

His voice floated into Liu Chan's ears.

"You handle Ten Thousand Sword Sect's affairs. If you're unable to restrain these people, come back with me to Yinxue Tower."

Liu Chan clenched her fists, secretly making up her mind: "I definitely can."

A few minutes later, the disciples of Ten Thousand Sword Sect rushed to the Ninth Peak.

The crowd saw the Sword Tower collapsed and the Sect Leader Jian Xu lying on the ground, all gasping in shock.

Liu Chan stood atop a platform, her soft face carrying a faint sense of sorrow.

"Real Person of the Sword Tomb passed away during cultivation due to deviation."

"He entrusted the Qing Xu Sword to me, appointing me as the next Sect Master of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect."

Liu Chan's words were clear and calm, and the sorrow on her face was genuine.

Though Jian Xu harbored ill intent toward Liu Chan, she learned the Superior Sword Path from him, naturally feeling a touch of grief upon mentioning his death.

The disciples of Ten Thousand Sword Sect, suddenly seeing the seemingly invincible Real Person of the Sword Tomb dead, were dumbfounded.

Some disciples began to cry, kneeling to pay their respects to Jian Xu.

But many disciples suspected something was amiss and shouted out loud among the crowd.

"Master's skills are profound, never heard of any Heart Demon; how could he suddenly go into deviation?"

"Wasn't it that evil people from the mountain killed him? I saw them rush up to the Ninth Peak!"

"Find the real murderer to avenge our master!"

...

Despite Jian Xu's favoritism towards Liu Chan, these disciples were all highly talented and proud.

Normally, they were already dissatisfied with Liu Chan receiving favoritism from the master, and now they seized the opportunity to act out.

Liu Chan remained standing, her expression indifferent, neither replying nor speaking much.

Seeing Liu Chan's weakness, the disciples below became more reckless.

A scarred-faced Taoist, fingered Liu Chan, bombarded her with accusations.

"Liu Chan, what did you do to Master? How did he die?"

The scarred Taoist's words were highly provocative, causing others to join in screaming.

"Indeed, Liu Chan, only you were there. Who knows if you conspired with outsiders to kill Master?"

"Explain everything to us, or else your so-called master's last wish is just a joke."

"I say, bind her first and interrogate her slowly."

...

Amid the chaotic uproar, Liu Chan's expression remained calm without any fluctuation, quietly observing the noisy crowd.

Yang Fei, hidden in the void, couldn't help but feel anxious.

Liu Chan's personality was really not suited to being Sect Leader.

The crowd below grew increasingly fierce, led by the scarred Taoist, advancing menacingly toward Liu Chan.

They clenched their fists, seemingly ready to capture Liu Chan at any slight disagreement.
