Immortal Supreme: Sovereign of the Grand Dao - Chapter 139 Sect Leader Of The Heavenly Sword Sect!

================¶¶================

Arthur was led into a mountain cave with a luxurious interior.

‘From outside it looks just like any other mountain filled with essence energy and good for cultivation, but from within, one would compare it to a mansion.’

Arthur was not surprised at it, but he just never thought the Heavenly Sword Sect would be able to build something like this.

As this is something he would only expect to see in the central continent, or even in the higher realms.

At this time he recalled the sect’s origins and the relationship of its founder with an Immortal Cultivator from one of the realms above.

‘I guess that’s why.’

“We are here.”

The elder leading Arthur spoke at this time, drawing Arthur’s attention to him.

“Thank you for leading the way senior, but I assumed that is not the only reason?”

“Straight to the point I see. Well, that’s good too, I also don’t like to beat around the bush.” The elder chuckled a bit.

Arthur kept a straight face waiting for him to just spill it out and be done with it.

“The Heavenly Sword Secret Realm will be opening in three months at the command of the sect leader.”

Arthur feigned a surprised expression as he heard this. He already expected this but his identity is still a secret.

“Why?” He asked.

The elder sighed before speaking, “This is because of the grand martial arts tournament. The time for this tournament has been brought forward again.”

“As you know, this is the most important martial arts meeting. And what the general public is unaware of, is the real purpose of the grand martial arts tournament.”

The elder stopped speaking and watched Arthur’s expression, of which the latter revealed a bit of shock and confusion, causing the elder to think.

‘Does he really not know or is he that good of an actor? I can’t even detect any flaw in his mental fluctuations. Whatever…’

“What is the real purpose of the grand martial arts tournament?” Arthur asked even though he already knew the answer.

And to his question, the Elder only shook his head in response, causing Arthur to frown.

“You can’t speak of it?”

“Yes,”

“Alright then, so what do you really want to say.”

“…”

“Well, the Sect Leader is interested in you, so he sent me to convey his wishes…” The Elder brought out a token with engraved symbols.

“He wants to meet you.”

Arthur nodded, and then the Elder crushed the token.

Nothing happened for a few seconds and then a terrifying presence began to condense, along with a shadowy figure.

Arthur squirted his eyes at the sight of the figure which was a bit blurry but one could tell it was that of a man.

‘The Sect Leader huh?’

As soon as he appeared, the elder stepped aside and erected a barrier on the surface of his skin to shield himself from the sword intent that filled the surroundings.

Arthur noticed a tiny sweat on the old man’s forehead.

This was because of the pressure the sect leader caused either deliberately or not.

‘He is testing me…’ Arthur took note of that.

‘Unfortunately, his soul is akin to a newborn before a great mountain. What tremor can he cause?’ Arthur laughed in his heart.

Although he felt no pressure in his mind, his body was different. He has to squint his eyes and also erected an essence energy barrier around him.

But immediately he did, cracks appeared all around it.

‘Figures…’

Arthur decided to reveal some of his true strength in the spur of the moment as he knows that the Sect Leader had already known about his identity.

But since strength is more important in this world than one’s background the man decided to test his strength.

*Vroom!*

‘5th Rank Sword Concept!’Unravel the Unknown, Unleash the Unimaginable: N♡vεlB¡n.

The moment this was revealed the Elder was shocked speechless, and even the sect leader was the same.

“Hmm, interesting…”

Suddenly the oppressive force disappeared and the atmosphere became calm once more and the figure of the Sect Leader became clear.

Arthur dispelled his sword concept and took a good look at the sect leader.

The man was handsome and looked middle-aged. He had a mix of black and grey hair on the sides of his head.

He wore a white Daoist robe which exuded the aura of a powerful defensive artifact with hints of great power.

“Greetings Sect Leader!” The Elder cupped his fists with a bow.

“Greetings Sect Leader,” Arthur greeted with a mere nod.

The elder on the side saw this and frowned and wanted to berate him a little when the Sect Leader spoke.

“Leave us.”

The elder could only swallow the words he was about to speak to correct this junior on proper respect and left immediately.

It was only until both of them were left did Arthur speak as the man just kept looking at him curiously without saying anything.

“I assume you already know my identity, Senior?” Arthur smiled knowingly.

“Oh, do I?”

The sect leader raised an eyebrow at that.

“Senior, I am a straightforward person,” Arthur’s expression became calm as he said this.

These words told the sect leader that Arthur did not want to beat around the bush.

The sect leader nodded in understanding, “I see.”

“Let’s go straight to the point then.”

“Crown Prince of the Hartfield Empire, for what purpose are you in my sect?”

‘Now that’s what I’m talking about. Why not do this from the start?’ Arthur shook his head inwardly while remembering that the seniors of the cultivation world might like creating dramas from spending too much time in seclusion.

“Crown Prince? I think you might be mistaken, Senior. I am not the Crown Prince…yet.” Arthur chuckled as he said this.

The sect leader narrowed his eyes, “I see, then why are you really here? The Emperor said you came for training alone but I believed otherwise.”

Arthur went silent and the sect leader waited patiently for an answer. He knew he could not force Arthur for a reason because of his identity and background, but he also could not stop his curiosity and suspicion.

“Well…”
