"Heh heh, you win!"
After the "Heaven-Shading Giant Palm" was shattered by the "Sword Qi Giant Dragon", True Lord Zhi Chang did not become enraged and throw a tantrum as everyone expected.
On the contrary, True Lord Zhi Chang chuckled and generously admitted defeat.
"Young Master Yun, congratulations. From now on, you are the Holy Son of Mount Fangzhang Sword Sect. As the Holy Son, you may marry Fairy Hao Cai!"
Holy Son of Mount Fangzhang Sword Sect?
The group of "ordinary disciples" were all stunned.
Has the Sect Master gone senile?
Yun Tian Kong isn't even a cultivator of the Mount Fangzhang Sword Sect; how can an outsider become the Holy Son of Mount Fangzhang Sword Sect!
However, the group of "Grand Elders" stroked their beards and chuckled, very happy and satisfied.
Sect Master brother, well done!
When it comes to being "cunning and deceitful," no, "cunning and strategic," one still has to look to Sect Master brother.
Sect Master brother's move of "winning and losing both ways" was played perfectly!
Did True Lord Zhi Chang not know that Yun Tian Kong was an outsider and not a cultivator of the Mount Fangzhang Sword Sect?
Of course, he knew. This was also why True Lord Zhi Chang had strongly opposed Fairy Hao Cai marrying Yun Tian Kong in the first place.
But now...
Heh heh, Yun Tian Kong had fused with the "Seven Great Sword Daos," and the "Sword Qi Giant Dragon" he unleashed with his Golden Core realm cultivation had its power even exceeding the limit of the Great Perfection Nascent Soul realm, infinitely approaching the Spirit Division realm.
Such talent could no longer be described as "monstrous"; it should be called "unprecedented, never to be seen again"!
Yun Tian Kong's heaven-defying performance was enough to conquer True Lord Zhi Chang a hundred times over.
The shrewd True Lord Zhi Chang's attitude immediately underwent an eighty-degree shift. Not only did he agree to Fairy Hao Cai marrying Yun Tian Kong, but he also announced Yun Tian Kong as the Holy Son of Mount Fangzhang Sword Sect.
In this way, Yun Tian Kong was firmly bound to the Mount Fangzhang Sword Sect.
Whatever astonishing achievements Yun Tian Kong might accomplish in the future, the Mount Fangzhang Sword Sect would benefit from his glory.
Moreover, putting aside the future and focusing on the present, making Yun Tian Kong the Holy Son of Mount Fangzhang Sword Sect still brought many advantages.
The "Unbreakable Heavenly Sword" that Yun Tian Kong himself used was a "Postnatal Spiritual Treasure."
The "Azure Origin Immortal Sword" he brought as the third betrothal gift was also a "Postnatal Spiritual Treasure."
With this, the Mount Fangzhang Sword Sect gained two "Postnatal Spiritual Treasures," which was incredibly satisfying!
Coupled with three hundred "Nine Dragon Pattern Pills" and ten billion spirit stones.
This time, the Mount Fangzhang Sword Sect had struck it rich!
For a moment, True Lord Zhi Chang couldn't help but regret why he had been so persistent in the past. Wouldn't it have been better if he had agreed earlier to let Yun Tian Kong become the Holy Son of Mount Fangzhang Sword Sect? Wasn't that more appealing?
But it was okay, True Lord Zhi Chang comforted himself, it was not too late...
"Too late!"
Just as True Lord Zhi Chang was planning in his heart how to appease Yun Tian Kong and mend their relationship, he heard Fairy Hao Cai's angry shout.
"Who cares about being your damn Holy Son or Holy Daughter! When you were bullying us earlier, why didn't you think about the current situation! Humph! Young Master Yun, let's ignore them, let's go!"
These words were incredibly scathing, slapping True Lord Zhi Chang in the face repeatedly.
But then again, True Lord Zhi Chang really couldn't refute them.
Because what Fairy Hao Cai said were all facts!
You ignored me when I was nobody; now you want me to be someone you can't afford to approach!
True Lord Zhi Chang's treatment of Yun Tian Kong earlier was not just "ignoring"; he had been excessive, especially when he unleashed the "Heaven-Shading Giant Palm" for the second time, nearly condemning Yun Tian Kong to death.
Now that Yun Tian Kong had achieved his "limit breakthrough," and True Lord Zhi Chang coveted Yun Tian Kong's "heaven-defying talent," he began to shamelessly ask Yun Tian Kong to become the Holy Son of Mount Fangzhang Sword Sect.
Impossible!
Fairy Hao Cai would never let True Lord Zhi Chang succeed.
She was furious and prepared to leave with Yun Tian Kong on the spot.
"Zhi Chang, Young Master Yun, you can't leave!"
Fairy Hao Cai's eyes turned cold, as sharp as a knife, and she glared at True Lord Zhi Chang chillingly.
"What, are you still trying to forcibly stop us?"
Fairy Hao Cai's dissatisfaction with True Lord Zhi Chang had reached its peak.
True Lord Zhi Chang's face flushed with embarrassment.
The series of actions he had taken recently were not very proper, and he truly had no face.
True Lord Zhi Chang gave a wry smile.
"Well, Hao Cai, I admit I was wrong before. I hope you and Young Master Yun..."
It was an unimaginable scene for a dignified Sect Master to apologize to two juniors in public.
This showed how highly True Lord Zhi Chang valued Yun Tian Kong.
He truly wanted to make amends and strive to keep such a "peerless genius" for the Mount Fangzhang Sword Sect!
Fairy Hao Cai was not swayed by True Lord Zhi Chang's words. The thought of Yun Tian Kong almost being forced to death by True Lord Zhi Chang just now made her furious, and she was about to lash out again.
However, before Fairy Hao Cai could erupt, Yun Tian Kong gently tugged at her and pulled her into his embrace.
"It's okay, Hao Cai, don't be angry!"
In Yun Tian Kong's warm embrace, Fairy Hao Cai was enveloped by a sense of immense happiness, her heart melting. Stars of happiness filled her eyes, and there was no trace of anger left.
"Young Master Yun..."
Fairy Hao Cai let out a soft purr like a kitten, nestling obediently in Yun Tian Kong's arms, not moving at all.
Her current docile and obedient demeanor was completely different from her previous fierce and angry appearance.
After comforting Fairy Hao Cai, Yun Tian Kong turned his gaze to True Lord Zhi Chang, who was on the ground.
At this moment, True Lord Zhi Chang was also looking at Yun Tian Kong.
Their eyes met.
True Lord Zhi Chang's face was full of apology as he sincerely said to Yun Tian Kong.
"Young Master Yun, I am sorry..."
Before he could finish speaking, Yun Tian Kong proactively smiled and said.
"Sect Master, you don't need to apologize to me. I completely understand your actions just now!"
True Lord Zhi Chang's eyes lit up upon hearing this.
"Really? Then, Young Master Yun, are you willing to be the Holy Son of my Mount Fangzhang Sword Sect?"
Speaking of this most important matter, True Lord Zhi Chang couldn't help but become nervous again. He looked at Yun Tian Kong with anticipation, hoping for a positive answer.
Yun Tian Kong did not disappoint True Lord Zhi Chang. He chuckled and nodded in agreement...
"With pleasure! I am willing to be the Holy Son of Mount Fangzhang Sword Sect!"
This declaration immediately caused a huge uproar!
"Wonderful!"
True Lord Zhi Chang couldn't contain his excitement and cheered loudly.
The group of "ordinary disciples" were also incredibly excited and shouted in unison, "Holy Son!"
