Divine King of Honour Chapter 2126: Making an Outrageous Demand

"Xue Yan, are you sure about this?" The Great Elder looked at Xue Yan and asked.

"Every word I say is true. I saw with my own eyes the Beichen Divine King give the token to this person." Xue Yan said firmly.

Xue Yan then turned to face Xu Nian and shouted, "Xu Nian, why haven’t you handed over the token? How can someone like you be qualified to possess our Shenxiao Sword Sect’s Ancient Sword Pavilion Token? Do you really think you have the right to enter our Shenxiao Sword Sect?"

Xu Nian’s eyebrows immediately furrowed, his heart filled with anger.

Everyone instantly turned their attention to Xu Nian.

"That’s right, I do have the token, but why should I give it up?" Xu Nian asked with a cold smile.

"Hmph, why should you? Because the token belongs to our Shenxiao Sword Sect. Holding onto our token without returning it makes you despicable." Chu Xi said immediately.

"I neither stole nor robbed it. How does that make me despicable?" Xu Nian laughed in anger.

What a twisted argument.

"If you’re not despicable, then what are you? Don’t think we don’t know that you’re holding onto our Shenxiao Sword Sect’s token just to covet our sect’s legacy. Our legacy would never fall into the hands of someone like you, an ant." Xue Yan chimed in.

What an ant indeed.

Rage surged in Xu Nian’s heart.

Back then, when the Shenxiao Sword Sect wanted to seize his token, he hasn’t settled that score yet.

Now they want to resort to old tricks?

"Enough, Xue Yan, Chu Xi, stop your nonsense. Fellow Daoist Xu is a guest invited to our sect. How can you be so disrespectful?" Li Fenglan shouted immediately.

With these words, both Chu Xi and Xue Yan fell silent.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, I’m sorry. It’s my fault for not teaching our sect’s disciples properly." Li Fenglan said to Xu Nian.

Xu Nian shook his head.

Since Li Fenglan said so, he naturally couldn’t get angry.

"Holy Daughter, this cannot be left unresolved. Given that he truly possesses our Shenxiao Sword Sect’s Ancient Sword Pavilion Token, we must have him hand it over." A late-stage God King Elder said.

"Li Tiande, what do you mean?" Li Fenglan immediately looked at the Elder, who was the nineteenth elder of Shenxiao Sword Sect.

"I mean no harm, but the Ancient Sword Pavilion is too significant, and even if he is a guest invited by the Holy Daughter, it can’t be left like this." The Elder said.

The other elders nodded in agreement.

All believed that the Ancient Sword Pavilion Token shouldn’t fall into outsider’s hands.

Xu Nian sneered, realizing that this matter wouldn’t be resolved easily.

"Li Tiande, our sect rules state that even those from the Outer Sect can use the Ancient Sword Pavilion Token to visit. Has this rule slipped your mind?" Li Fenglan said.

"The times have changed, and since the sect is in danger, we naturally can’t act according to common sense." Li Tiande responded.

Li Fenglan’s eyebrows furrowed instantly.

"Alright, this matter can actually be negotiated. Since you are a guest invited by the Holy Daughter, our Shenxiao Sword Sect will treat you courteously. How about this: if you give us the Ancient Sword Pavilion Token, our Shenxiao Sword Sect is willing to compensate you. What do you think, Fellow Daoist?" The Great Elder said.

"I don’t want compensation. I’m here at your Shenxiao Sword Sect to find someone. Just tell me this person’s whereabouts, and I will gladly hand over the token." Xu Nian said.

"Oh, who is it that you’re looking for?" The Great Elder asked curiously.

Li Fenglan and the others indeed furrowed their brows.

Even Guan Qingyue, who knew the matter, furrowed her brow tightly.

"I am looking for a woman named Leng Yanran. I received news that she appeared in your Shenxiao Sword Sect before." Xu Nian said.

"Leng Yanran?"

All the elders’ faces changed dramatically.

Even the Shenxiao Sword Sect’s Great Elder furrowed his brow.

Seeing their expressions, Xu Nian had a bad premonition.

"What’s wrong? Did something happen to her?" Xu Nian hurriedly asked.

"No, Fellow Daoist, I’m afraid I can’t answer that question. Please ask something else." The Great Elder said.

"Can’t answer? What did your Shenxiao Sword Sect do to her?" Xu Nian immediately asked coldly.

"Fellow Daoist, calm down. It’s not what you think. We once promised not to disclose this woman’s whereabouts, so we can’t inform you. But rest assured, she is safe and well." The Great Elder said.

Xu Nian heard this with some skepticism.

Promised not to disclose?

Judging by their demeanor, it seemed they were apprehensive about this matter.

Could it be that Leng Yanran was taken away by some powerful figure?

But Leng Yanran is just a regular Divine Cultivator; how could she know such a powerful person?

"Fellow Daoist Xu, don’t rush. This indeed has nothing to do with our Shenxiao Sword Sect. The person you’re looking for is not in our sect, but we really can’t divulge news about her." Li Fenglan also said.

Xu Nian calmed down upon hearing this.

Although he wouldn’t entirely trust them, it seemed what they said was true.

Leng Yanran indeed isn’t in the Shenxiao Sword Sect.

"Fine, I’ll believe you for now. But if I find out you lied to me, I’ll make sure your Shenxiao Sword Sect knows the meaning of regret." Xu Nian said seriously.

As these words were spoken, the elders in the hall furrowed their brows one after another.

"Hmph, how dare you threaten our Shenxiao Sword Sect, where do you find this courage?" Xue Yan snorted coldly.

"Then what does Fellow Daoist plan to do in order to hand over the token?" The Great Elder asked smoothly.

"I can give up the token, but your Shenxiao Sword Sect must provide me with ten top-grade Sealing King Pills, and also a slot to enter the Ancient Sword Pavilion." Xu Nian said.

"Ten top-grade Sealing King Pills? Why don’t you go rob?" Xue Yan shouted immediately.

The other numerous elders were also shocked.

The Sealing King Pills are top-tier God King Pills and are the best for breaking through the God King Level, priceless in value.

This guy is obviously opening the lion’s mouth wide.

The other elders also shook their heads, thinking that this kid is simply outrageous.

"Fellow Daoist, isn’t such a demand too high?" The Great Elder said without showing any emotion.

"Not high, otherwise this Ancient Sword Pavilion Token, you can forget about getting it." Xu Nian replied with a smile.

Xue Yan and Chu Xi were immediately furious, wanting to say more, but were stopped by Guan Qingyue.

Numerous elders were also discussing through their communication techniques, and clearly, most elders disagreed.

Eventually, the Great Elder went against the majority and said, "Alright, I will agree to Fellow Daoist’s request. Here are ten Sealing King Pills for Fellow Daoist now, and there will indeed be a slot in the Ancient Sword Pavilion for you. Will Fellow Daoist kindly hand over the token?"

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and ten Sealing King Pills flew to Xu Nian.

"When the Sword Pavilion opens, I will hand it over." Xu Nian said.

Hearing this, all the other elders were furious.

Clearly, they felt Xu Nian was being excessive.

Xu Nian smiled slightly; if he handed over the token now, what if the Shenxiao Sword Sect reneges?

"In that case, the Ancient Sword Pavilion will open in a month, and I hope Fellow Daoist will not break your promise. In the meantime, Fellow Daoist can stay within the sect." The Great Elder smiled.

Xu Nian did not refuse.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, please follow me. I will lead you to your quarters." Li Fenglan said.

After speaking, he led Xu Nian out of the main hall.

Xu Nian naturally followed, brushing past Guan Qingyue and the other two.

Xue Yan and Chu Xi were both filled with rage.

Only Guan Qingyue appeared somewhat regretful.
