An Unexpected Turn: Villain Becomes Dad-Chapter 196
Chapter 196
His Solar Sword Intent enveloped the ancient sword, which absorbed it. Then, the ancient sword radiated a brilliant white light. It was as if a sun had risen, illuminating the entire Sword Burial Mountain.
At the same time, above the Sword Burial Mountain, starlight shimmered, scattering down in a faint purple glow. This scene instantly stunned everyone.
Many people were jolted out of their sword comprehension states.
The manifestation at Sword Burial Mountain could only mean one thing: a famous sword was emerging!
Throughout Heavenly Dao Holy Land’s history, countless sword-dao experts had emerged. After their passing, they had their swords buried within Sword Burial Mountain. If one of these swords reappeared in the world, it would cause celestial phenomena.
“Sun and stars!”
“Could it be that the sword emerging this time is the legendary Pure Yang-Remnant Star?”
“The Pure Yang-Remnant Star—it’s said to have belonged to two of our Heavenly Dao Holy Land’s most formidable sword-dao cultivators from tens of thousands of years ago!”
“Those two were a pair of immortal dao companions!”

In the sky above Sword Burial Mountain, a white sun and purple stars stood side by side on the horizon.
Throughout the entire mountain, the rules of the sword path had become unusually active.
The countless ancient swords buried on Sword Burial Mountain trembled and resonated as if celebrating the emergence of Pure Yang and Remnant Star.
“An iconic sword has emerged!”
“Pure Yang-Remnant Star?”
At that moment, a surge of powerful auras appeared.
The appearance of the Pure Yang and Remnant Star swords alarmed a few reclusive elders of Heavenly Dao Holy Land, who broke their isolation and headed toward Sword Burial Mountain.

On Youyue Peak.
Zhan Qiuyun’s eyes snapped open suddenly.
“The Pure Yang and Remnant Star swords have appeared? Could it be that this Pure Yang Sword has fallen into the hands of that rascal Yang Chen? It’s been over a month since the last time. He should have recovered by now. I should go drain him dry again! Hmph, last time, he got such a big advantage over me. This time, I won’t let him off so easily!”
As she muttered to herself, Zhan Qiuyun couldn’t help but recall the last time when she was right here, held tightly by that rascal Yang Chen, her moon robe drenched in sweat.
As she thought about it, Zhan Qiuyun felt her body growing warm.
“Curse it, what’s happening to me? How could my Dao heart be disturbed by that little rascal Yang Chen? Could it be ... the longing from too many empty years?” Zhan Qiuyun fumed inwardly.
Standing up, she changed into a fresh moon robe and walked out of her wooden house.

In the Heavenly Dao Hall. Qing’er, dressed in a blue dress, sat cross-legged on a jade platform. In just one month, her cultivation had reached the Fourth stage of the Golden Core Realm. However, her youthful face had lost some of its lively spirit, now exuding a touch of icy serenity.
But this change also diminished the youthful innocence in her appearance.
“Hm, the Pure Yang and Remnant Star swords have appeared?!” A soft, elegant voice resounded within the hall, carrying a subtle air of majesty befitting one accustomed to authority.
Though melodious, it seemed somewhat jarring in the empty hall.
“Master, what’s wrong?” Qing’er asked.
“Nothing!” Qing’er, I need to step out for a bit. Keep up your cultivation, and don’t slack off! You’ve wasted too much time over the years, and you can’t afford to waste any more!”
“Oh …” Qing’er pouted slightly, nodding reluctantly.
As the indistinct figure on the high platform disappeared, Qing’er couldn’t help but purse her lips and mutter to herself:
“Stupid Brother, you never keep your word! It’s been a month, and you still haven’t come to see me! Master is so strict, and she won’t let me take a single step out of the hall! How am I supposed to see you, my stupid Brother?”

At the foot of Sword Burial Mountain, the air trembled. Several elders appeared out of nowhere.
One of them spoke: “Back then, Pure Yang and Remnant Star Masters spent nearly half their lives crafting these two swords!”
“The Pure Yang and Remnant Star swords are nearly on par with sacred artifacts!”
“When wielded together, their power is even comparable to that of a sacred artifact!”
“Fellow elders, whose disciple possesses such remarkable talent in the sword path?”
The elders’ eyes sparkled with interest.
Finally, their gazes fell upon Yang Chen and Chu Xi, who were sitting cross-legged.
“It’s those two young ones!”
“They seem somewhat unfamiliar. I’ve never seen them before.”
One of the black-robed elders extended his hand, summoning Zhan Yunxuan directly.
“Yunxuan, you’re responsible for maintaining order on Sword Burial Mountain. Do you know who these two are?”
Facing the core elders of Heavenly Dao Holy Land, Zhan Yunxuan couldn’t help but tremble as he quickly bowed and said: “Reporting to the Patriarch, the girl in the purple robe is the disciple of Aunt Qiuyun, named Chu Xi! As for the young man, he was brought by Aunt Lingshuang. His name is Yang Chen!”
“Oh?” Hearing this, the black-robed elder was momentarily surprised. Then, a slight smile appeared on his wrinkled face. “So, both of these youngsters belong to the Zhan family! Haha, excellent!”
Seeing this, the other elders wore expressions of regret, sighing inwardly.
For the next thousand years, it seemed the Zhan family’s influence in Heavenly Dao Holy Land would once again rise to its peak.
The position of Holy Maiden would likely fall to the Zhan family. And now, the two young disciples who obtained the legendary Pure Yang and Remnant Star swords were also under the Zhan family’s lineage.

The celestial phenomenon in the sky gradually faded. Then, from the top of Sword Burial Mountain, two beams of light shot down, entering Yang Chen and Chu Xi’s bodies.
“Pure Yang Sword!” Yang Chen murmured.
At this moment, within the sea of true qi inside him, an ancient sword emitting white light hovered. Golden rays radiated from the sun-like essence within him, flowing into the ancient sword. The sword hummed with vibrant energy, its white light growing even more dazzling.
“This sword isn’t bad at all.” Yang Chen was quite satisfied with the Pure Yang Sword. Though he was a body cultivator with immense physical strength ... possessing such an extraordinary sword added a significant boost to his combat power.
Furthermore, the Pure Yang Sword came with its own sword manual, called the Pure Yang Sword Manual. It recorded numerous divine sword techniques, all utterly pure and yang-oriented. They complemented his Solar Divine Physique perfectly. freewebnøvel.coɱ
“Ah!”
Yang Chen opened his eyes. Two golden lights flashed briefly in his gaze. The Solar Sword Intent within him gradually faded. Only then did Yang Chen notice several old men standing nearby, their auras deep and vast like the sea.
Even when Zhan Qiuyun was angry, she never displayed such an overwhelming presence.
“Amazing, young one. At such a young age, you’ve reached the Fifth stage of the Soul Transformation Realm! And you’re a body cultivator! Moreover, you possess a pure yang constitution! Elder Lingshuang has indeed chosen a fine disciple!” A black-robed elder stroked his beard and smiled.
“Senior, you are?” Yang Chen rose to his feet, his expression puzzled.
“I am the Grand Elder of Heavenly Dao Holy Land.”
“So, you’re my Grandmaster. This disciple greets the Grandmaster!” Yang Chen immediately bowed in respect.
