Evil Venerable of the Sword Dao

Chapter 1626 - 137: The Li Wentian of the Past

The Female Sect Master of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect looked at the Third Elder with a hesitant gaze.

The Third Elder was as mysterious as ever, so mysterious that no one knew whether they were male or female, old or young.

However, the Third Elder spoke again: "Sect Master, these words, it’s enough that you’ve heard them. There’s no need to think too much, just don’t constrain Zhou Yan."

"Since it’s the Ancestor’s instructions, just listen, that’s all. The rest doesn’t really concern us."

The Third Elder then used the transmission skill to speak to the Sect Master in white.

This transmission seemed to be an explanation for the series of events before.

It was this explanation that seemed to give the Sect Master of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect a sense of relief.

She thought for a moment, wasn’t this the case? After all, the Heavenly Mechanism Sect placed more importance on inheritance, whereas the other sects were more concerned with rules, which the Heavenly Mechanism Sect didn’t care about as much.

The Heavenly Mechanism Sect holds great respect for some ancestral inheritances and rules, which is why its legacy remains so rich and vast.

Without such respect for ancestral sentiments and rules, the Heavenly Mechanism Sect might have long declined.

This is also why Zhou Yan’s desire to alter the Heavenly Road of the Thirty-Three Heavens and erase the carvings of the Heavenly Mechanism Hall is so unacceptable.

Due to Zhou Yan’s uniqueness, in this situation, the Female Sect Master of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect can only turn a blind eye.

Since Zhou Yan carries some imperial decrees from the Ancestors, they do not conflict with the Ancestor’s rules.

Moreover, the Female Sect Master of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect believes that since Zhou Yan speaks so confidently, there is a good chance he will truly achieve it.

After all, Zhou Yan has already accomplished many unimaginable things, and his previous bold claims have all clearly turned into reality.

Considering this, the Female Sect Master of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect feels much more at ease.

She bowed gracefully to the Third Elder and said, "Third Elder, Zhuge Qiyan has been taught."

This time, the Female Sect Master of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect did not use the transmission skill but spoke directly with respect.

Thus, Zhou Yan realized that this beautiful and cold Female Sect Master of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect was named Zhuge Qiyan.

However, it is unclear what relationship there is between Zhuge Qiyan and Zhuge Xiye.

Zhou Yan thought to himself, while the Third Elder nodded slightly at him, and Zhou Yan returned an eye contact with a subtle smile.

This kind of glance seemed to make the Third Elder unwilling to face Zhou Yan and instead directly turned and left.

Such a personality made Zhou Yan more certain that the Third Elder was a woman, and a very young woman with character at that.

But what’s the point of a woman dressing so mysteriously?

Zhou Yan sighed internally, yet he did not dwell on it; after all, these matters had nothing to do with him.

After all, everyone has their unique preferences, and in this Great Thousand World, nothing is beyond belief; perhaps the Third Elder just enjoys such things?

Such thoughts flashed through Zhou Yan’s mind.

If the Third Elder knew of this thought, who knows what her reaction would be.

...

The Third Elder left, but the Sect Master in white, Zhuge Qiyan, did not leave immediately. Instead, she looked at Zhou Yan and said, "Zhou Yan, the matters of the Sect are entrusted to you. Although you have the Ancestors’ decrees, even granting you great authority, I still hope you will be more certain when altering the Thirty-Three Heavenly Road."

"I no longer hope for very good results now, as long as the results are not worse than now, I’ll be very satisfied. This is not doubting your ability, nor questioning your character, but the Thirty-Three Heavenly Road and the carvings of the Heavenly Mechanism Hall are symbols and have significant meaning to the Heavenly Mechanism Sect."

"Since I’ve agreed, and even placed all of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect’s hopes into your hands, if the Thirty-Three Heavenly Road is damaged, if the carvings of the Heavenly Mechanism Hall are lost, it would nearly cause the Immortal monuments in every disciple’s heart to crumble."

"This point, I believe you understand as well."

"Some things, I truly don’t want to say, but as the Sect Master, Zhuge Qiyan may be indecisive in many aspects, but in some matters, she will be resolute and absolutely insistent."

"Zhou Yan, can you really repair the Thirty-Three Heavenly Road? Can you truly make the carvings of the Heavenly Mechanism Hall more perfect?"

This time, Sect Master Zhuge Qiyan asked with exceptional gravity, seeming as though she had never spoken so solemnly about anything before.

This shows how important the two symbolic treasures of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect are to the Sect Master and its disciples.

"Rest assured, it will only be better, not a bit worse."

"I, Zhou Yan, never attempt anything without confidence."

Zhou Yan said earnestly.

"Good, it’s good to have your word."

Zhuge Qiyan said.

Then, she prepared to leave.

However, at that moment, a light shadow suddenly fell beside Zhuge Qiyan’s crystal-clear earlobe.

A moment later, Zhuge Qiyan’s body paused slightly, then her gaze once again turned to Zhou Yan, but this time, her eyes held a trace of doubt.

"Sect Master, what is it?"
