Villain: Capture The Loli Sword Spirit At The Beginning

When luck comes, there's no stopping it.

I don't know what's wrong with the old master of the Wanjie Palace. Unable to figure out how to choose a suitable successor, he picked up his hobbies and went to the mountains and rivers where no one knew him.

Every day, besides writing and painting, he would listen to people praise his artwork.

Due to his hidden identity, every time he heard someone praise his work, the wrinkles on his face would twist into a knot, and he would laugh uncontrollably.

Only here, the old master could relax himself.

Coincidentally, in order to evade the pursuit of the Spirit Clan and the Qingtian Divine Dynasty, Xiaofeng and Yuemingxi also came to the place where the old master was.

Xiaofeng had experienced countless worlds, and calligraphy and painting were one of his skills.

When he saw the old master's work, he couldn't help but praise it.

Although it couldn't compare to the level of the old master, it was rare for a young person to be able to communicate with the old master for a long time.

As time went by, the two became close friends.

"Actually, old man, I have always wanted to live a carefree and free life. Unfortunately, I am bound by my circumstances. Back then, I was the most talented in our sect. The sect master treated me well, sigh!"

Sitting in front of the golden wheat field, the old master sketched the beautiful scenery in front of him with a pen, while complaining about his life to Xiaofeng and Yuemingxi.

"There are too many unpleasant things in life, but there's nothing we can do about it. Only by becoming strong enough can we transcend all of this."

"Easier said than done."

The old master sighed.

Who doesn't know that becoming strong is the way to go?

But becoming strong requires a large amount of cultivation resources.

And a large amount of cultivation resources can only be obtained through strength.

"By the way, Xiaofeng, do you know my identity?"

"I have some guesses, but I'm not sure."

"Tell me."

The old master became interested and stopped his pen, looking at Xiaofeng beside him.

"I guess you might be the old master of the Wanjie Palace."

"Give me your reasons."

The old master didn't confirm or deny it, but his interest grew stronger.

"First, the old master of the Wanjie Palace likes calligraphy and painting, and you also like it."

"There are too many people who like calligraphy and painting."

"Second, the petty grievances you complain about are coincidentally corresponding to the situation in the Wanjie Palace."

"Hehe, I didn't intend to hide that."

"Third, since I and Miss Yue have been constantly pursued, but after meeting you, they seem to have disappeared, so I speculate that your strength is very strong."

"I didn't want to be disturbed, so I set up a formation in this one-acre three-point land to keep annoying things outside."

The old master nodded slightly, very satisfied with the three reasons Xiaofeng mentioned.

"Yes, I am indeed the master of the Wanjie Palace. I was injured in a recent battle and my life is not long. I wanted to quickly select a suitable successor, but I couldn't find one no matter what."

"Why not tell me about it?"

Xiaofeng smiled.

"Sure." The old palace master nodded with a smile. "There aren't many people who are willing to listen to this old man's talk."

"If you have the desire to confide in someone, there are plenty of people who will listen to you."

"Hahaha, but most of those people are insincere. Although your intentions are not entirely pure, I can sense that you are much more genuine than them."

After saying that, the old palace master began to talk about the current situation of the Ten Thousand Realms Palace.

"In fact, the current situation in the palace is quite good. There are three individuals who have a strong influence and prestige in the palace, but there are still some aspects that I am not satisfied with."

"The first one is the Fox Spirit Saint, one of the elders of the Elder Council. During my absence, he was in charge of the specific affairs and managed the entire Ten Thousand Realms Palace smoothly without any major problems."

Xiao Feng was puzzled, "Isn't that good? Just choose him as the new palace master."

The old palace master sighed, "But his talent is too poor. He has no hope of breaking through to the Dao Realm in his lifetime. The Ten Thousand Realms Palace must have a Dao Realm powerhouse to support it. Otherwise, it will be rapidly eroded in other worlds."

The top combat power determines the upper limit of a force.

A Ten Thousand Realms Palace with a Dao Realm powerhouse and a Ten Thousand Realms Palace without a Dao Realm powerhouse are two different forces.

"The second one is the Azure Sword Saint. This kid has good talent and has the potential to reach the Dao Realm, but he is too cautious and indecisive in his actions. Sometimes, being not ruthless enough is unacceptable. However, if there is no other choice, we can only choose him."

"What about the third one, the Snowfall Saint?" Xiao Feng asked. "She has excellent talent, courage, and is ruthless in her actions. She recently reincarnated and quickly reached the Saint Realm. It shouldn't be difficult for her to break through to the Dao Realm. Moreover, she has the most supporters among the three. I would say that she is my favorite among them."

Xiao Feng scratched his head and said, "It sounds like this Snowfall Saint is excellent. Why not choose her?"

The old palace master sighed again.

This sigh was even more profound than before.

"But I have discovered that there may be someone behind her, although that person's methods are very subtle and I can't figure out who it is. But I feel that if I pass the position to her, the Ten Thousand Realms Palace is very likely to fall into someone else's hands."

"I see."

Xiao Feng nodded slightly, gaining a new understanding of the situation in the Ten Thousand Realms Palace.

"So, after listening to this old man's nonsense, do you have any thoughts?"

The old palace master looked eagerly at Xiao Feng.

"Well, I think both of the remaining candidates are fine, except for the Fox Spirit Saint," Xiao Feng replied. "If the Azure Sword Saint's personality is not suitable, you can slowly cultivate him and gradually delegate power when he is ready. As for the Snowfall Saint, if there is someone behind her, you can guide and influence her until she cuts off ties with other forces, and then delegate power."

The old palace master waved his hand, not accepting Xiao Feng's suggestion.

He looked at Yue Mingxi, "What about you, little girl? After listening to our conversation, do you have any suggestions?"

"Ah! I don't have any thoughts, but if I were you, I might consider cultivating another talented individual," Yue Mingxi said.

The old palace master nodded slightly, not saying anything, and resumed his painting.

A refreshing breeze blew through the wheat field, causing the old palace master's white hair to flutter in the wind.

After a while, Xiao Feng spoke up.

"In fact, I have another idea that I think is pretty good. I don't know if you're willing to listen?"

"Go ahead."

"I think since there is no suitable successor within the Ten Thousand Realms Palace, you can expand the scope of the successor to the entire Chaotic Immortal Domain. In the entire Immortal Domain, you can search for a suitable successor."

The brush remained on the paper, motionless.

"Your idea... seems quite bold," the old palace master's gaze gradually turned cold. He first lingered on Xiao Feng for a moment, and finally settled on Yue Mingxi.
