Chapter 884: Chapter 883: Sword Tower

"The Headquarters of Sword Tower is located on the Central Star, but there are branches of Sword Tower on all the Transit Planets." After they resumed their journey, without waiting for Yusuf Zuck to ask, Selena Gould started to share everything she knew about Sword Tower with him.

"Sword Tower is immensely large, being one of the top ten organizations of humanity. It is filled with experts who after special training and equipment, become exceptional assassins. They undertake various assassination tasks and legend has it that no one targeted by Sword Tower can survive."

"What is your Magic Treasure?" he suddenly asked.

"Uh..." Selena Gould was a bit caught off guard by Yusuf Zuck’s train of thought, but she instantly replied: "It’s an Immortal Sword, a treasure my father acquired during his earlier ventures, which he later gifted to me!"

"I have another one here, and I’m giving it to you now." Yusuf Zuck tossed out another Immortal Sword, throwing it directly into Selena Gould’s arms!

"What a treasure!" Selena Gould immediately clutched the Immortal Sword tightly and exclaimed, "This Immortal Sword is of a higher grade than mine; it’s a Top-grade Immortal Treasure, just like the one you gave to Sect Master Faye Webb earlier, while mine is just of a lower grade."

"Are there many Immortal Artifacts here?" Yusuf Zuck asked curiously.

"Yes, quite a lot," Selena Gould nodded and said: "Many Earth Immortals of level ten or above possess Immortal Artifacts because the Origins Star System has many ancient and medieval palaces and Immortal Mansions left behind where sometimes, higher planes also send down Immortal Treasures to the Lower Realm."

"However, top-grade Immortal Artifacts are extremely rare. I’ve heard that only the truly influential figures, and the powerful sects with profound backgrounds have Top-grade Immortal Treasures."

"Oh, continue telling me about the Sword Tower," Yusuf Zuck nodded and said.

"Sword Tower is named for its association with swords and has been established for over ten thousand years. It’s rumored that the Sect Master of Sword Tower received the legacy of a sword immortal, possessing an unmatched Immortal Sword, with a Cultivation Level that reaches the heavens and penetrates the earth. He has many disciples, and all of them have made a name for themselves."

"After its establishment, there were many who had grievances with Sword Tower, even many who went to challenge it, but all those who challenged were beheaded for public display. Later on, Sword Tower took on a mission to assassinate the Saint Heir of Holy Sect. And that Saint Heir was perfectly assassinated by Sword Tower. What’s most frightening is that after the Saint Heir was killed, Sword Tower emerged unscathed, and the Holy Sect did not retaliate against Sword Tower at all. This event solidified Sword Tower’s position."

"What is the Holy Sect?" Yusuf Zuck further inquired.

"Oh!" Selena Gould immediately stuck out her tongue, realizing she had forgotten that Yusuf Zuck was not familiar with this place.

"Holy Sect is the most powerful sect in the Origins Star System, not just one of the strongest, but the strongest. Even the Cultivation Alliance of humanity was founded by the Holy Sect, and it has always been the presider of the alliance, meaning the Alliance Hierarch!"

"Not even the Holy Sect could do anything to Sword Tower?" Yusuf Zuck’s eyebrows shot up, suggesting that Sword Tower must have some powerful backing, or perhaps a high-powered figure behind the scenes.

"Exactly, which is why there are rumors that behind Sword Tower, there are shadows of many powerful entities, but the true facts are known to no one."

"What about the Demon Clan? The Demon Tribe? The Alien Race? Do they also have the most powerful sects as Alliance Hierarchs?" Yusuf Zuck asked again.

"Yes," Selena Gould nodded, "The greatest power of the Demon Clan is naturally the Lopez Clan, which has always been the Alliance Hierarch of the Monster Tribe Alliance. The Demon Clan also has Saint Heirs and Saint Daughters, but the Saint Heirs and Saint Daughters are not necessarily from the Lopez Clan. They are elected publicly, with each race having at least ten Saint Heirs and ten Saint Daughters."

"The largest power of the Alien Race is a race known as the Angel Clan, where, according to rumors, they can grow white wings, though I have never seen them myself."

"The Demon Tribe, the Meditation Clan, Buddhism, and so on, all have the strongest powers, and each power also has its Saint Heirs and Saint Daughters. These Saint Heirs and Saint Daughters are symbols, and they represent the most outstanding reserve talents of each race, capable of inheriting great authority."

"Sir, you are going to Sword Tower to kill as a means to an end, mainly to seek information about your relatives from Sword Tower, right?" Selena Gould suddenly said.

"Indeed, since they pursued my brother in the past, they must certainly have some information about him. If I follow the trail, I’ll be able to find clues about my relatives. Of course, I also want to know who is behind hiring the assassin."

"Well, I shall accompany you, sir, and we can also purchase some information through something called the Omniscient Pavilion. The Omniscient Pavilion is true to its name, knowledgeable about everything under the heavens, and is also one of the top ten forces."

"If we can’t find it then head to the Spirit Communication Pavilion, but first to the Sword Tower. You lead the way. Wherever there’s a Sword Tower branch along the way, I’m going to challenge them!" Yusuf Zuck sneered, "Those who have offended me, no matter the reason, no matter how powerful they are, I shall kill their entire family, leave no one alive!"

"Indeed, cultivators cannot be merciful. As the saying goes, wildfires never quite burn out, and the spring breeze blows them alive again. Only by uprooting them entirely can you be truly safe, and it will also make others fear you." Selena Gould responded with an unexpectedly ruthless tone.

Yusuf Zuck just looked at her and chuckled, then he sighed and said, "I’ve been trapped in a dark world without light for over three thousand years, alone in solitude. So, over the years, everything in my heart has ceased to exist, except for the single word ’kill’!"

"Your family will be safe, sir, they definitely will be!" Selena Gould said encouragingly.

"Hmm, today I heard from Faye Webb that Fleur Carson is still alive, so hope has been rekindled in my heart. Today is also the happiest day I’ve had in countless years."

"Today, Selena is also very happy. Firstly, to learn that my father and the others might not be dead, and secondly, because the Master gifted me an Immortal Sword, my heart feels so joyful that I want to laugh!" Selena Gould said with a blushing face, then she quickly lowered her head, not daring to look at Yusuf Zuck!

Yusuf Zuck gave a carefree laugh and continued on his way.

Four hours later, another Transit Planet was reached: "In the biggest city here, there’s a Sword Tower branch!"

"You shouldn’t go over there. Just tell me how to get to the next stop, then wait for me on the next planet!" Yusuf Zuck thought for a moment and said.

"Why?" Selena Gould asked, puzzled.

"Transit Planets forbid killing and fighting, and there are collective punishments. They can’t do anything to me, but knowing that you are with me, they will cause trouble for your Heaven Spring Sect!"

"No, I want to be with you. And I can disguise myself. If others can’t recognize me, it’ll be fine, and I trust you can keep me safe, right?"

Yusuf Zuck looked at her blankly for a moment, "As you wish." After saying that, he strode forward.

Selena Gould stuck out her tongue and smiled, then shouted courageously, "Wait for me, don’t rush. Just half a cup of tea’s time!" After that, she whooshed down the mountain.

Yusuf Zuck really did stop, and curiously extended his telekinetic sense to check on her.

Selena Gould flew down to the forest and thickets below the mountain, and when she saw no one was around, she immediately began to undress.

However, halfway through undressing, she abruptly looked up towards the transmission on the mountain peak and, biting her lip, said, "You’re peeping, aren’t you, sir?"

"Cough..." Yusuf Zuck was startled and immediately withdrew his telekinesis, not having anticipated that Selena Gould was changing her clothes!

Selena Gould didn’t get a response from Yusuf Zuck, but she smiled ’hehe’ and continued changing.

About half a cup of tea later, dressed in men’s clothing, with her long hair tied up, her eyebrows thickened, and even wearing a human skin mask, Selena Gould had transformed into a charming young master.

"Brother Yusuf, thank you for waiting so long!" she said, flying back and jokingly greeting Yusuf Zuck with cupped fists.

Yusuf Zuck examined her from head to toe, deliberately pausing at her chest, and chuckled, "It’s still quite apparent that you’re a woman disguised as a man!"

"Sir..." Hearing Yusuf Zuck teasing her, Selena Gould’s face turned red all the way down to her neck, and she lowered her head.

"Haha, but it doesn’t matter. In this way, no one will recognize you as Selena Gould!" Yusuf Zuck laughed heartily and then continued on his way!
