Chapter 622
Alex had never pretended to be a good man, but he wasn’t a villain either.He understood the Wudang Sect had its own plans, ones that didn’t always match his own.Over the years he had gained plenty from them—skills, respect, a place at their table. Yet those gains had never been enough to chain him here forever.“I need to leave this place,” he said.He had unfinished business waiting in Estoria.The Sect Master studied him for a long moment, then gave a slow nod. “When you become the young successor of the Sect Master, you will be free to go anywhere you wish.”Alex hadn’t expected that offer. For a heartbeat the idea hung in the air like an open door he had never noticed.“I don’t want to become the Wudang Sect Master,” he said, flat and honest.The Sect Master’s brows drew together. “Why?”“This place is too small for me.”A ripple of outrage swept the elders. One of them shot to his feet. “How can you speak so lightly of your own sect?”Even the Sect Master looked startled. He le

Another elder shot him a cold glare. “Do you honestly believe you could have dragged him here if he didn’t want to come?”The elders fell suddenly silent.Elder Tong’s humiliating defeat still hung fresh in everyone’s mind—a hard, painful lesson none of them could ignore. Dragging Jun Jiu anywhere against his will would not be simple. It would almost certainly cause far more trouble than any of them wanted to handle.The Sect Master nodded once, calm and unhurried. “Then tomorrow, I will go meet him myself.”Shock rippled through every elder in the room. The rule had always been ironclad: when the Sect Master called, disciples came running and bowed low. Never— not once in the long history of the sect—had the Sect Master gone to a disciple after being refused.“That damn disciple,” one elder snarled. “Why don’t we punish him and force him to come?”“That is also an option,” the Sect Master said evenly. “But to do it, you would need to take your own disciples and go there yourselves.

“Jun Jiu,” Li Qingxue called out, her voice sharp against the quiet morning air.Alex stepped from the doorway of his small, thatched hut, blinking in the sunlight. “Yes?”“The Sect Master wants to see you. Come with me.”A ripple of shock passed through the thousand herb disciples gathered nearby. The Sect Master rarely summoned anyone, least of all an outer disciple like Jun Jiu. Heads turned.Whispers spread like wind through dry grass. Not just anyone earned a personal audience with the man who ruled the entire mountains.Alex’s face hardened.“No.” He turned on his heel and started back inside. “I don’t want to meet anyone. I want to go home—to Xia.”The silence that followed was absolute. Li Qingxue’s eyes widened. The disciples stared, mouths half-open.An outer disciple refusing the Sect Master? It was unthinkable.“Jun Jiu,” Li Qingxue said, her tone dropping to ice. She stepped closer, cold eyes locked on his. “Just because you climbed to first place on every peak doesn’t giv
Chapter 619
Alex felt the surge of power settle deep within him as he broke through to the first stage of Foundation Establishment.The metal element coursed through his meridians like liquid steel, sharp and unyielding, born from the long hours of enlightenment.The knowledge had flooded him, reshaping everything he thought he knew about combat and cultivation.He opened his eyes and scanned the plaza.Dozens of outer disciples stared at him in open-mouthed awe, their faces frozen between disbelief and reverence.But Alex had no time for their stares. He did not care what they thought of him.Without a word, he flicked his wrist and hurled the white sword skyward. It spun once, then hung motionless in the air, humming with quiet power.In one fluid motion he leaped, landing lightly on its flat blade.“Go,” he said.The sword shot forward like an arrow released from a bow, carrying him high above the peaks in a streak of white light.Gasps rippled through the crowd. Shock turned to frenzy. A handf

Alex had spent days absorbing every sword art the old man offered from the Murim traditions.Mount Hua’s flowing strikes, Emei’s precise cuts, Qingcheng’s relentless pressure—he had mastered them all with Gaia’s quiet assistance, the system recording each form perfectly in his mind.“What do you think?” the old man asked, his voice low and steady.Alex hesitated. He had turned the question over in his head for hours now.The old techniques felt natural after Gaia’s help, like extensions of his own body.But this new art the old man wanted to teach him—the Limitless Sword, the origin of life and death—left him completely lost.No matter how hard he tried, he could not grasp it.Even Gaia had failed. The old man’s movements refused to be captured. Every swing shifted and changed, impossible to pin down.Limitless, just as the name promised. The system could only report the same empty message: No pattern detected.The old man rose slowly to his feet. “I know you possess a sharp mind, boy.
Chapter 617
The illusionary realm shimmered and dissolved around Alex like mist burning off under morning sun.In its place stretched a vast, rolling hill crowned with ancient trees, a crystal-clear river winding lazily through the valley below, and a dense forest of emerald pines and flowering maples that whispered in the breeze.Sunlight dappled the grass in golden patches. The air smelled of pine resin and wildflowers, crisp and alive.An old man stood beside the river, tall and straight-backed, his silver hair tied neatly at the nape of his neck.He was strikingly handsome even in age—high cheekbones, warm brown eyes that sparkled with quiet mischief, and a smile that carried the easy charm of someone who had once turned every head in a room.He wore simple gray robes that moved with the wind as though they belonged to the landscape itself.Alex approached slowly. The old man tilted his face toward the open sky, watching a lone hawk circle overhead.“I don’t know how many centuries have passed
