He stopped where he was, looking at the disappearing sword mark. The corners of Shen Ping’s small face revealed joy. He was not good at swords, nor was he good at sabers. What he knew was spearmanship, and what he used was also a spear. Although at his level, he could master any weapon as long as he comprehended the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. That’s what he thought so, but now that he executed such a sword technique, his thoughts had changed.

“It turns out that when the sword technique is at its peak, it is actually stronger than the ordinary Great Dao of Heaven and Earth!” he muttered.

The power of the sword just now had definitely exceeded 30% of the ordinary Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. This was only after he had just comprehended it. If he completely comprehends the true essence of the sword technique, it would definitely far exceed the complete Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

He opened the virtual interface and saw the Sword Dao displayed on it. He came to a realization. It turned out that the techniques used by sword techniques, saber techniques, and other weapons were also top-notch Heaven and Earth Great Dao.

“Is this a sword that can destroy all techniques?” Shen Ping had a higher understanding of sword techniques. Just as his mother had said in this life, the sword did not adhere to force or form. It could contain everything in the world, so it naturally could contain the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. “Can fate be revealed with a sword?”

He wanted to try to integrate the Dao of Fate into his sword technique, but he had no clue. When his true soul power sensed his mother and the others, he went back to the recliner. Soon, Madame Yu led Deputy General Chen, Yue Zhu, and two unfamiliar men and women into the backyard.

“This must be our Yuhua Shen Dynasty’s youngest Marquis Zhenbei!”

One of the men was elegant and calm. The woman’s sword intent was even purer than Madame Yu’s.

“Junior Sister, whether your son can learn the sword, and whether he can join the Sword Whisper Tower, aside from having the Sword Heart, he must also have the bloodline and bone structure. Otherwise, it will be difficult for him to become a great swordsman,” the woman said coolly.

Deputy General Chen could not help but say, “The Young Marquis is the legitimate son of the Marquis, so his bloodline must be powerful. There is no doubt about this. I think his foundation is not bad.”

The elegant man nodded and took a few steps forward. Then, a wisp of pure energy seeped into his body. Suddenly, his expression changed. Then, he became serious and continued to examine.

When they saw the elegant man’s expression, Madame Yu and Deputy General Chen became nervous. A moment later, the elegant man shook his head. Madame Yu hurriedly said, “Mr. Ji, how is it?”

“The bloodline is like a mountain, not active at all. Even the most ordinary bloodline is not obvious. It’s very difficult to inherit the marquis’ powerful bloodline. But I may be wrong. I’ll come back in a few days when I’m ready.”

Deputy General Chen shook his head. “Impossible, absolutely impossible. The marquis’ bloodline is extremely powerful. His legitimate son will definitely be able to inherit it.”

The woman said, “Hmph, the stronger the bloodline in the world, the harder it is to inherit. Your House of Zhenbei has more than ten children, and how many have inherited the bloodline? None have completely inherited it until now.”

Madame Yu’s expression was ugly as she continued to ask, “Mr. Ji, what about my son’s bone structure?”

“So-so. He can cultivate, but it will be very slow.”

Madame Yu’s body swayed for a moment, then she gritted her teeth and said, “Deputy General Chen, take Mr. Ji and my senior sister to the hall in the front courtyard to rest.”

“Yes.”

After they left, Yue Zhu said, “Madam, this… this is impossible. Even if the young marquis doesn’t inherit his bloodline, how can his foundation be so poor? All the young masters of our House of Zhenbei have high-grade foundations!”

Madam Yu looked at Yue Zhu. “When I went to ask the Sword Tower, did anything happen?”

“No, Deputy General Chen and I have been by the young marquis’ side day and night. Furthermore, with our strength, even if a seventh-realm expert infiltrated, it’s impossible for us to not sense it at all. Unless it’s the eighth-realm, no one can stop such a top expert if he really wants to harm the Young Marquis,” Yue Zhu said.

Madame Yu sighed. “Forget it, it’s fine if he’s an ordinary person. At least he’s living a luxurious life. However, I’ll submit a report about the position of Marquis after some time.” As she spoke, she fell silent.

The position of Marquis was her husband’s wish. He hoped that his legitimate son would be like him and guard the Northern Region in the future. If the Emperor took back the position, the glory of the entire Marquis of Zhenbei would be dimmed. This was clearly not what she wanted.

A few days later, the refined man, Mr. Ji, was ready. He tested again, but there was still no reaction from his bloodline. This made him shake his head and sigh. “Madam, the Young Marquis indeed didn’t inherit the bloodline, and his bone structure is very ordinary.”

The woman said, “Junior Sister, it seems that your son is not fated with the Sword Whisper Tower. Even if you forcefully use your qualifications to send him to the Sword Whisper Tower, it won’t be of much use. Without a bloodline and bone structure, he can’t stay in the Sword Whisper Tower at all.”

Madame Yu knew what her senior sister meant. “No matter what it takes, I will definitely make my son strong.”

The elegant man and the swordswoman left. Deputy General Chen said in a low voice, “Madam, what do you need me to do? Please instruct me. Even if I have to climb a mountain of blades or go through a sea of fire, I will definitely not let the Marquis’ legitimate son become an ordinary person. Everything the Marquis has in the north should be inherited by his legitimate son!”

Madame Yu was silent for a moment. “I’m preparing to make a trip to the Southern Region’s Sea Moon Cliff. It’s said that there’s a precious medicine there that can remold people. I’ll have to trouble you and Yue Zhu to take care of my son during this period of time.”

“Rest assured, Madame,” Yue Zhu and Deputy General Chen said in unison.

…

As the news that the young marquis of the Marquis of Zhenbei didn’t inherit the bloodline and had an ordinary bone structure spread, the entire Yuhua Shen Dynasty discussed. More and more officials submitted petitions to the emperor to remove the marquis title, but they didn’t pass.
