After the Sword God's death, his children Chiba Sakurako and Chiba Kenichi scatter his ashes at sea. They are confronted by Ye Xuan, who reveals that the Holy Mansion manipulated the Sword God into fighting him by kidnapping Chiba Kenichi. Vowing revenge, Chiba Kenichi formally requests to become Ye Xuan's disciple.

The power of hatred is infinite.

Looking at the scene of Chiba Kenichi kneeling before him, earnestly apprenticing, Ye Xuan couldn’t help but recall his former self, a hot-blooded young man driven by anger, who traveled abroad to live by the sword.

History always bears a striking resemblance.

The son of the Sword God before him, isn’t he just like the past me?

Waves surged in Ye Xuan’s eyes, but then he shook his head.

Back then, didn’t the young Asura who was nearly trampled by mercenaries on the battlefield do the same thing? Ye Xuan also felt he was very similar to himself.

In the end, raising a tiger invites disaster!

Ye Xuan closed his eyes, let out a faint breath, and smiled, saying, "You should get up now, I don’t have the habit of taking apprentices."

Chiba Kenichi remained motionless, kowtowing on the ground, stubbornly biting his teeth, "I am dull of aptitude, far from surpassing my father, and even less than my sister. Right now, I’m as small as an ant; to become stronger, I must find someone stronger than my father to help me, only you can make me strong!"

"Your desire for revenge is your own affair, why should I help you?"

Ye Xuan chuckled, casually looking at Chiba Kenichi, "Moreover, even if I can make you stronger, it’s not something that can be achieved overnight. By the time you become truly powerful, the Holy Mansion would probably have already been crushed under my feet, so what’s the point of you becoming strong? Your enemies are not yours to kill."

"I know, you have deep-seated hatred towards the Holy Mansion, naturally, it’s not for me to kill."

Chiba Kenichi said solemnly, "But I just hope that when you shatter the Holy Mansion, you’ll take me along. Every person of the Holy Mansion I kill is a slice of revenge for my father!"

Ye Xuan was stunned upon hearing this, unexpectedly, the anger and hatred in Chiba Kenichi’s heart had reached such a degree.

He just wants to drink the blood of the Holy Mansion people!

Seeing Ye Xuan remain silent.

Chiba Kenichi spoke emotionally again, "Even if when you destroy the Holy Mansion, I am still just a burden and can’t go to battle with you, I still hope that one day I can become strong.

I can’t let the same thing happen again, father has already sacrificed for me, if someday I become a burden to my sister again...

I am the son of the Sword God, I should stand tall and live, not be sheltered like a pet. I want to inherit my father’s will, protect my sister, protect everyone around me!"

After listening to Chiba Kenichi’s words, Ye Xuan’s sword brows slightly furrowed, and his gaze towards him had shifted.

And Chiba Sakurako painfully closed her eyes.

She is eight years older than Chiba Kenichi, it can be said that she has watched her brother grow gradually, once upon a time, her brother had always been her and her father’s treasure, living in the Northern Federation, carefree and carefree.

Many times, she and their father were extremely disappointed with Chiba Kenichi; being the son of the Sword God, not seeking progress is a great disgrace!

But now!

Has he finally grown up?

Is his spine finally becoming strong?

"Hoo—"

Chiba Sakurako exhaled lightly, opened her eyes, and looked towards Ye Xuan, bending over and bowing, "Mr. Ye Xuan, please take my brother as your disciple, teach him martial arts, help him grow, as long as you agree..."

Chiba Sakurako paused for a moment, then gritted her teeth, "Whatever you want me to do, I can do!"

Many aspects of Northern Federation’s culture are similar to Yan Country’s, such as the notion of men being predominant and women being secondary.

For Chiba Kenichi, inheriting the will of the Sword God and becoming the next Sword God of the Northern Federation is his mission from birth, while for Chiba Sakurako, assisting her brother in fulfilling his mission is her mission.

Even if, in terms of aptitude and potential, Chiba Sakurako far exceeds Chiba Kenichi...

Ye Xuan, hearing Chiba Sakurako’s words, felt a jolt, looked at her with astonishment, almost mockingly, "Even though he is your own brother, you don’t have to do this, right?"

"This is my mission."

Chiba Sakurako said solemnly, "I cannot make him stronger, nor do I have the ability. If you can make him become like our father, you would be the benefactor of our Chiba Family, Yan Country people believe in repaying a drop of kindness with a fountain of gratitude, we are the same."

Ye Xuan touched his nose and smiled, "Are you sure?"

Chiba Sakurako nodded firmly, determinedly, "I’m sure!"

"Alright then."

Ye Xuan brazenly ogled Chiba Sakurako a few times, revealing a mischievous smile, "Since that’s the case, why don’t you come with me to the car, I need to verify if you really can do anything."

Chiba Sakurako was stunned upon hearing this, staring at Ye Xuan for quite a while without coming to her senses.

She never imagined that this powerful man who could kill her father with a single sword stroke would be so vulgar.

But then she thought again and felt relieved, men in this world, aren’t they all the same? Not every strong man has the loyalty and integrity like her father!

"Fine!"

Chiba Sakurako bit her teeth, resolutely lifting her steps towards Ye Xuan’s car parked in the distance.

Chiba Kenichi’s face changed dramatically, he suddenly lifted his head shouting, "Sister, you can’t!"

Chiba Sakurako paused her steps, turned back to look at Chiba Kenichi, "Mr. Ye Xuan owes us nothing, if there is no compensation, we are not qualified to ask him to help you grow."

"Even so!"

Chiba Kenichi’s eyes were on the verge of tears, "I can pay any price to become strong, even life, but I cannot let you sacrifice for me. You are the goddess in the hearts of countless people in the Northern Federation, you are the proud daughter of the Sword God, you mustn’t make such a sacrifice!"

"So what if I’m a goddess? After all, just a woman." Chiba Sakurako smiled bitterly, waved her hand, "You don’t need to say anything, this is my mission."

With those words, Chiba Sakurako lifted her steps again, heading towards the car.

Chiba Kenichi stared blankly at the back of Chiba Sakurako, wanting to shout for her to stay, but it was stuck in his throat because he knew, once his sister made a decision, no one in this world could stop her.

The more he tried to stop her, the more it would make his sister feel he was still that incompetent playboy!

"I want to be strong, I want to be strong!"

Chiba Kenichi clenched his fists tightly, eyes almost red from breaking, at this moment, his heart was in desperate need of strength, he never longed for power so much.

Watching his last family member slowly depart, finally entering that luxurious car, Chiba Kenichi felt his heart wrenching in pain, as if it was bleeding.

When he saw Ye Xuan also enter the luxury car, Chiba Kenichi felt suffocated, his face turned pale.

Sister, you are the Northern Federation’s goddess!

Until now, you have never been touched by a man!

Your purity, your pride...

"Ah!"

Chiba Kenichi slammed his fists on the ground, kneeling on the cold ground, crying and roaring in anguish.
