Chapter 2579
The Sword Master sensed that James had left.
Although she could tell James’ precise location from the footsteps, she did not take action against him for fear that the hidden
person was overpowering.
Otherwise, she would have definitely been able to sense his aura.
After James left, the Sword Master frowned and wore a solemn expression.
“who the hell was that? We have a formation protecting the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion.
Ordinary people aren’t able to pass through it.
How can an outsider enter the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion and secretly follow me around? What exactly is this person’s goal?
The Sword Master was perplexed.
She did not know the identity of the person following her or the person’s motive.
The Sword Master quickly left the tower and headed to see Xianna.
At that moment, Xianna was by a manor in the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion where she stayed.
She sat on the grass field outside the manor and stared at the sky in a daze.
The Sword Master rushed over and told her about someone following her in the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion.
Shocked, Xianna asked, “Are you saying that someone has been following you around?” The Sword Master nodded and said
solemnly, “Yeah.
I could clearly hear footsteps but couldn’t see anyone nor sense any energy around me.” “You're already at the Sage Rank’s
Seventh Stage and are a Sage King.
You're almost invincible in our world.
How can even you not sense this person’s aura?” Xianna was in disbelief.
The Crepe Myrtle Sword Master was already at the Sage Rank’s Seventh Stage.
Cultivators at the Sage Rank’s First to Sixth Stage were called Sages.
Meanwhile, cultivators at the Sage Rank’s Seventh to the Twelfth Stage were called Sage Kings.
The Crepe Myrtle Sword Master was considered the strongest person in this world.
However, her status as the strongest person was a surface matter.
Other strong cultivators stayed hidden and seldom exposed themselves to the world, which caused them to be forgotten by the
world.
Despite that, the Sword Master was still the strongest among the known cultivators.
It was hard for Xianna to believe someone could follow the Sword Master without being discovered.
“T’m very serious.” The Sword Master had a grim look.
Xianna said, “The Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion’s formation was set up by one of your ancestors many years ago.
If 1 remember correctly, your ancestor was a powerhouse that became a Divine Sage.
Who could pass through the formation unscathed?” “Walganus,” The Sword Master and Xianna spoke simultaneously.
The Sword Master nodded and said, “Mhm.
The Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion’s formation has existed since ancient times, and outsiders aren’t capable of breaking through it.
However, Walganus passed through it without breaking the formation.
The person following me must be Walganus.” Xianna asked puzzledly, “Why would he follow you? Could he be trying to obtain
the supreme sword -fighting techniques hidden in Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion?” The Sword Master shook her head.
Meanwhile, James was completely unaware the Sword Master had mistaken Walganus as the person secretly following her.
At that moment, he wandered among some of the mountains in the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion.
The Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion was massive, and it had 1008 mountains in total.
Disciples were scattered among all of these mountains.
James leisurely wandered on the mountains.
He could sense the Sword Intent coming from the mountains.
At the same time, Sword Energies would emerge from the mountains.
Although the strands of Sword Energy were weak, they were potent when they gathered.
Ever since he entered the Crepe Myrtle Sword Pavilion, his Yogacara Sword Energy had been stimulated, and it was absorbing
Sword Energy from the surroundings.
However, James forcibly stopped it from absorbing the Sword Energy.
“This is a nice place.” James climbed to one of the mountain’s peaks and sat on a rock on the cliff.
He began sensing the Sword Energy around him and murmured, “The Sword Energy here is the best nourishment for my body.
If I cultivate here for some time, I’ll definitely be able to increase my Yogacara’s rank to the Third Stage.”
