The gravestone read: "Here lies my late husband, Lu Xiao."

The black-and-white photo on it portrayed a scholarly-looking gentleman.

"Xiao, I've retrieved your favorite Jade Flute for you, rest easy!!!"

The Black Widow took out the Jade Flute she had acquired at the auction and whispered to the gravestone, her eyes filled with pain and longing.

Clearly, the owner of this gravestone was the Black Widow's deceased husband.

"You still have the face to pay respects to my elder brother!!!"

An icy shout abruptly erupted at that moment.

The woman who had previously fought with the Black Widow in Chuzhou had reappeared.

And she had a group of people following her.

"He was my husband, today is his death anniversary, and I naturally come to pay my respects!!!"

The Black Widow said coldly.

"Because of you, my brother died, you don't deserve to live!!!"

"If you miss my elder brother so much, then go join him in the netherworld!!!"

The woman's tone was ice-cold as she shouted this, then she swung a sharp blade, launching an attack at the Black Widow.

Bang!!!

The Black Widow waved her hand.

A terrifying force of Primordial Qi Power burst forth, sending the woman reeling back continuously.

"You've broken through to the Innate level?"

The woman looked at the Black Widow in shock.

"Lu Yu, I don't want to fight with you, just leave!!!"

The Black Widow told the woman in a deep voice.

"Hmph, do you think just because you've broken through to the Innate level that you're safe, capture her!!!"

This woman named Lu Yu watched the Black Widow with frosty eyes as she commanded coldly.

Suddenly, two people leaped out from behind her, both of them Innate Strong People.

Bang bang bang...

The Black Widow was immediately engaged in fierce combat with the two of them.

The people the Black Widow had brought with her were utterly unable to contribute to such a battle.

In the Southern region, one of the Five Great Sects, the Heavenly Sword Sect.

A chamber's door opened.

An invisible might swept out from within the chamber.

Standing outside the chamber were the Heavenly Sword Sect's Sect Leader and Vice Sect Leader, along with the elders.

Clearly, they were all waiting to greet the person emerging from the chamber.

Soon, a young man around the age of twenty-five or twenty-six, clad in a simple long robe with long hair, stepped out from the chamber, carrying a black-sheathed longsword on his back.

"My boy!!!"

The Sect Leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect called out to the young man.

"Master!!!"

The young man turned his gaze toward the Heavenly Sword Sect Master and responded.

"Having received the inheritance from Lord Tianjian, you are now the new Heavenly Sword of our sect."

The Heavenly Sword Sect Master told the young man.

"I'm far from being the true Heavenly Sword of the Heavenly Sword Sect, Master. This time, he let me out,"

"wishing for me to be tempered, to enhance my Martial Arts state of mind!!!"

The young man said.

He was the heir to the Heavenly Sword of this generation within the Heavenly Sword Sect.

Every twenty years, the Heavenly Sword Sect would select the disciple with the highest talent and strength to receive the Heavenly Sword inheritance.

To become the new Heavenly Sword.

The duty of the Heavenly Sword was to protect the Heavenly Sword Sect.

Twenty years ago, the Heavenly Sword of the Heavenly Sword Sect was ranked among the top ten on the Heavenly List.

Now, this young man Lin Jian was the disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect Master and had also received the inheritance from the previous Heavenly Sword.

He was essentially the person set to become the Heavenly Sword of the sect in this generation.

"My boy, today the Refining Saber Sect's Young Master Zhou Jun is going to have a battle with Jiangzhou's Young Master Chu. Why don't you go and join in on the excitement!!!"

The Heavenly Sword Sect Master said to Lin Jian.

"Jiangzhou's Young Master Chu?"

Lin Jian's expression showed a flicker of surprise.

Then the Heavenly Sword Sect Master briefed him about Young Master Chu's deed, saying:

"This fellow killed our Heavenly Sword Sect disciples and an elder, his crimes are unforgivable!!!"

"I didn't expect such a talent to emerge in the secular world; he's the perfect candidate to test my strength!!!"

Lin Jian spoke coldly, his eyes flickering with a ruthless sword light.

"You must be careful!!!"

the Sect Leader reminded.

"Master, don't worry. If I can't even handle him, then I don't deserve to be the Heavenly Sword!!!"

Lin Jian said confidently.

...

Jiangzhou, Tianjiang Peak.

This was a perilous peak within the territory of Jiangzhou, seldom visited by anyone.

It was filled with cliffs and precipices, virtually inaccessible to the average person.

Today, however, this place attracted the attention of powerful figures from all over Jiangnan and even the entire Southern Martial Arts World.

Naturally, their purpose was due to today's duel on Tianjiang Peak between the famed Jiangzhou Young Master Chu of Hua Country and Zhou Jun, the number one talent of the Refining Saber Sect—one of the Southern Five Great Sects.

They, of course, wanted to come and watch.

At the foot of this mountain, a continuous stream of people arrived.

Most of them were influential big shots from the Southern territories and strong individuals from various major Martial Arts Sects.

Chu Feng's figure also appeared here.

He came alone, not allowing anyone to follow him, much like a tourist.

"Miss, why join the crowd when others are dueling?"

"Once the Family Head finds out, he's going to scold me again!!!"

At this moment, a young girl with braids all over her head appeared here with an elder who spoke these words to her.

"Such an exciting fight, of course, I want to watch it."

"I also want to see for myself that mysterious Young Master Chu."

"He's so young, yet he already controls a part of the Martial Arts World."

"That's so incredible, he's practically my idol," the girl said giggling, with a whimsical expression.

"I didn't expect to have fans already."

Chu Feng, standing nearby, heard this and smiled as he touched his nose.

"Miss, that Young Master Chu, I reckon he won't exist after today."

At that moment, the elder spoke.

"Grandpa Mo, do you really think that Young Master Chu won't be able to defeat Zhou Jun?"

The girl pouted.

"Whether he wins or loses, Tianjiang Peak will become his final resting place!!!"

"Having offended the Refining Saber Sect, he has only one way out: death!!!" the elder said with a solemn voice.

"That's not necessarily true, I have a premonition that Young Master Chu will definitely be fine," the girl said with a pout.

"The young lady is right, how could Young Master Chu possibly be in any trouble?"

At this moment, Chu Feng said with a smile.

"Big brother, are you also a fan of Young Master Chu?" the girl asked, looking at Chu Feng.

"Yes!!!"

Chu Feng nodded.

"That's great, I've found a kindred spirit!!!" the girl said gleefully.

"Heh, you two are really naive."

"How could the mere Jiangzhou Young Master Chu compare with the esteemed Young Master of the Refining Saber Sect, the twenty-fifth on the Earth List, Young Master Zhou!!!" At that moment, a disdainful voice sounded.

A woman in her twenties, dressed in a long gown, walked over.

Her eyes were filled with scorn, and she carried an air of arrogance.

"Gu Qingyan, what are you implying?" the girl looked directly at the woman in the long gown and snorted.

"Nothing much, I just think Mo Xiaoya, you are too naive."

"That so-called Young Master Chu is nothing but an ant easily crushed under the immense presence of the Refining Saber Sect and Young Master Zhou," the woman named Gu Qingyan said disdainfully.

"You..."

The girl looked at the other party with furious indignation.
