Chapter 174: 170 Swordsmanship Hall Shura Field!_3

Tang Tianjiao waved his hand, "Isn’t that all the same?"

Xia Ye: ...

Looking towards the door, Tang Tianjiao said, "I don’t know whether my grandfather will be able to recognize you. He’s quite stern, but don’t worry, I’m here. Just don’t touch his treasured sword, and he won’t get angry about anything else..."

As he spoke, he turned around, and in the next second, his eyes widened.

Xia Ye was taking the treasured sword off the wall, holding it in her hands, and even poked at the Green Pine Gemstone inlaid in the scabbard.

Tang Tianjiao was so shocked his eyeballs almost popped out, and he hastily exclaimed, "Ye, Brother Ye, that sword..."

Before he could finish, a very stern voice came from behind.

"Who gave you permission to touch that sword?!"

Tang Tianjiao quickly stood in front of Xia Ye, but she wasn’t flustered at all, slowly turning to face Tang Shiji.

When Tang Shiji’s gaze focused on her eyes, which shimmered with a strange light, his expression changed dramatically.

This girl...

Xia Ye curled her lips, her smile lingering with significance.

Seeing his grandfather staring at Xia Ye, Tang Tianjiao was the first to say, "Grandfather, don’t be angry yet, this is my classmate; don’t scare her."

But after a minute passed, Tang Shiji still hadn’t taken his eyes off her, his gaze sharp yet profound.

Tang Tianjiao felt a tingle on his scalp and, remembering Xia Ye’s words, he quickly said, "Grandfather, Brother Ye said he knew you before, take a closer look at her..."

Tang Shiji shot a quick glance at Tang Tianjiao, then turned back to Xia Ye.

She had seen that sword and also said she had known him before?

That meant this girl, who bore a striking resemblance to the venerable person of the past...

Unlike Tian Hanwen, Tang Shiji was different; he had personally witnessed the venerable figure vanish before his eyes and was certainly not an atheist.

At this moment, he was convinced that the treasured sword dropping to the ground a few months ago was a sign that the legendary figure, who had disappeared years ago... was about to reappear!

Looking at Xia Ye once more, his eyes filled with reverence, and after a long while, he sighed deeply, "It really is you."

Tang Tianjiao blinked, impressed. Grandfather actually recognized her??

Xia Ye gestured with the sword, "Now... can I take a look at it?"

This sword was actually a gift to her from someone else years ago, and she was quite fond of it. She had thought she’d be able to see it anytime after giving it to Tang Shiji, but because of using Spiritual Energy, she hadn’t sought him out afterward.

Tang Shiji strode forward and snatched the treasured sword from her hands.

Just as Tang Tianjiao was about to call his grandfather stingy, he drew the sword with a "whoosh," which hadn’t been unsheathed in decades, in a graceful move.

He offered it with both hands respectfully, "I have honed the treasured sword; be careful holding it, and don’t cut yourself."

The peerless sword glistened in the sunlight, yet Tang Tianjiao was utterly perplexed.

Grandfather’s reaction... wasn’t it a bit too exaggerated?

After much thought, she could only interpret her grandfather’s strange reaction in one way.

Her Brother Ye was just that likeable!

"Hall Master," the chief disciple appeared at the doorway, a tall man standing behind him, "A guest has arrived, it’s Jiang Xuan from Jiang Enterprises, he says he’s here to see a friend."

The chief disciple moved aside politely after speaking.

Jiang Xuan was here, and he was indeed dressed very handsomely.

A finely tailored grey checked wool suit with a matching waistcoat.

The morning light cast a clear glow over him, accentuating his handsome, deep-set features, exuding aristocratic elegance as if he had stepped right out of an old European painting.

He stood there, emanating grace and scholarly elegance without saying a word, every gesture revealing refinement.

Even Tang Tianjiao was genuinely taken aback.

After exchanging greetings, Jiang Xuan’s gaze followed Xia Ye and landed on the sword in her hands.

A flash of recognition sparkled in his eyes.

Approaching, he took the sword from his trouser pocket with one hand.

Xia Ye noticed that his grip on the sword was quite practiced.

As Jiang Xuan took the sword, everyone’s heart hung in suspense.

Seeing that it was the friend of the venerable figure, Tang Shiji refrained from interfering, his eyes tracking the movement of the hands and masking his concern.

Tang Tianjiao said, "Mr. Jiang, please be careful. Don’t damage it."

The chief disciple added, "This is the Hall Master’s most treasured item; he usually doesn’t let others touch it."

After closely examining the sword in his hands, Jiang Xuan’s brow twitched violently.

This is the Hall Master’s item?

This was clearly what he had given to Xia Ye back in the day!

The little ancestor had actually given it to someone else?!
