Secret Records of the Leader of the Beichen Sword Sect

To be honest, Chen Xuantian certainly knew that Peng Ju’s Dao body was surnamed Chen, but he had never seriously thought about why Peng Ju’s Dao body was surnamed Chen.

After all, Chen is a big surname too. Isn’t his own surname also Chen?

However, now the clues have suddenly all connected, and he couldn’t help but think one step further.

This Chen Debiao of the Ba County Chen Clan claimed to be the descendant of the Western Regions Protector, the Broken Hu Marquis, and also claimed to be the descendant of the ’Unsullied Fuhu Sword of Sichuan! Iron Crane Piercing Clouds Chen Dachong!’ If what he said is true, then things get interesting.

This indicates that Lingxu Zi’s Three Corpses, Peng Ju, seized the body of the bloodline of the Broken Hu Marquis.

And if Chen Xuantian remembered correctly, Tie Dan’s master Chen Huzi was called Chen Dewei, wasn’t he? Wasn’t he also a descendant of the Western Regions Protector, the Broken Hu Marquis? And also from the Chen Clan in Shanyang County, Sizhou.

Moreover, Tian Gang also said that Chen Huzi was the true Heavenly Demon Seed, even sacrificing his own direct disciple, Tongming Sword Heart’s Shen Junyou, as a decoy to fulfill the Dui son, attempting to preserve the Sword Sect’s demon seed.

Looking at it now, it seems that in the end, they couldn’t save it, and it still fell into the hands of Lingxu Zi.

Hmm, when he parted ways with Tie Dan, the bubble also had a straightforward talk with him.

Sword Immortal Chen Huzi of Guangxia Mountain, Tie Dan’s master Chen Dewei, the Sword Sect’s Heavenly Demon Seed, the same bloodline as the Broken Hu Marquis.

Has already been body-seized by Lingxu Zi’s Three Corpses, Peng Qiao.

Once might be a coincidence. But Lingxu Zi arranged his Three Corpses in such a way twice, and even Peng Ju’s body seizing of Chen Dachong occurred before Peng Qiao seized Chen Huzi.

This seems to have become completely inevitable.

It seems that the Western Regions Protector, the Broken Hu Marquis, was also some kind of company-customized, extremely rare ’concept’ testing wetware, which is why Lingxu Zi, Tian Gang, and even the entire nine major sects are vying for it.

After all, didn’t Tie Dan and the boss use the Shi Family’s Demon Dragon Seed as the combat wetware for their Dao body?

The company, in order to acquire it, went through calibration design, concept validation, and real-world testing. The gap in original performance between different wetwares is obviously something that cannot be ignored.

For the Mystic Sect to calculate to this extent in pursuit of Dao is also natural. And considering Lingxu Zi’s consistent goal, which is to find the best, strongest combat wetware for real-world testing, the bloodline from the Broken Hu Marquis may be his primary choice.

In this calculation, the possibility that the pair of children from the Shen family escaped, one to Kunzhou and one to Dui State, was probably also planned.

Yes, maybe it was intended for the Shen family to marry into the Chen family, integrating the Shen family’s Tongming Sword Heart into this branch of the Ba County Chen Clan?

Although it seems that the Chen family in Shanyang has no one left, since they’ve made it to the position of Western Regions Protector, it is uncertain if the Chen family has left any bloodline in Dui Country.

Hmm, speaking of which, Chen Huzi, no, now it’s Chen Qiao, could he be hiding in Dui Country?

Then, thinking even further, what was the intention behind Yu Zao from the company rescuing Chen Xuantian, taking him directly to Kunzhou, and the moment they dropped off the ship, meeting this Chen Debiao of Ba County, the descendant of the Broken Hu Marquis?

Chen Xuantian’s thoughts spun rapidly, lost in deep thought and momentarily distracted.

"No!"

Suddenly, a sharp scream from Shen Caiwei awakened Chen Xuantian.

It turned out that Chen Debiao seemed unable to bear it any longer. Taking advantage of his distraction, he desperately stood up and drew his knife to chop at the Tang family’s Thirteenth Brother.

So Chen Xuantian dashed forward, tapped Chen Debiao below the ribs with his toe, kicking him flying, and then spun around, landing on his chest and poking him with his sword.

"How do you prove your surname is Chen?"

"How do I... I, I..."

Chen Debiao, being kicked silly and having such a fat fellow step on his chest, couldn’t move and was both angry and anxious.

"My dad’s surname is Chen, so how the hell is my surname not Chen!?"

"Then how do you prove your dad is your dad?"

"You little bastard, finding fault, huh!!"

As these two were bickering, the people on the Chen family’s side suddenly started whispering among themselves, with a few confirming with each other, uncertainly saying,

"This... Young Hero, the move you just used seems like our Chen family’s Flying Crane Captures Dragon? Where did you learn it from?"

"What!"

Everyone was shocked!

Alright, Chen Xuantian did indeed deliberately test them.

After all, if they were truly descendants of Chen Dachong, they would surely recognize this Crane Cry Nine Heavens Divine Skill, their family’s martial arts. Although Peng Ju had never passed it on to outsiders, there were only so many signature moves, and even if Chen Xuantian turned it into a ’Fat Crane Captures Dragon,’ his own people should still be able to recognize it.

Chen Xuantian was 80% sure in his heart, using the back of his sword to pat Chen Huzi’s face,

"Come on, report your birthdate and eight characters."

Chen Debiao’s expression was complicated, unable to swallow his pride for a moment, seemingly unwilling to submit, but the surrounding Chen family members were sensible too and quickly began explaining,

"Our family is indeed the Ba County Chen Clan. In the past, the Broken Hu Marquis offended powerful eunuchs and was exiled to Kunzhou to guard the border. Later, due to the treachery of corrupt officials, our military registration was removed, and for years we sustained ourselves by smuggling salt.

Hundreds of years ago, another ancestor emerged from the family, who practiced martial arts from a young age, unbeatable in Kunzhou. Known as Chen Dachong in Jianghu circles. Later, due to grudges formed in the jianghu, he pursued the Seventy-six Thieves in Sichuan. Finally, at Qingcheng Mountain, he merged martial arts into Dao, self-titled as Xi Yi, seeking immortality and enlightenment..."

On the other side, seeing that the conversation had started here too, realizing that something seemed amiss, they quickly came up to chat,
