The Hundred Million Sword Art was a secret technique of the Liu Nian Clan. It was the most powerful sword art in the world, and it was what the Kenzu Calendar relied on to dominate the world. Countless honors were attributed to the Hundred Million Sword Art. Whenever people mentioned the Liu Nian Clan, they would automatically think of the Hundred Million Sword Art. They would sigh. If only 10% of sword-bearers knew the Hundred Million Sword Art, then Yuan Kou would have been killed by humans long ago.
Some scoundrels would come out and criticize the Liu Nian Clan. Why didn't they publicize the Hundred Million Sword Art for all sword-bearers to cultivate? Wouldn't the world be at peace then?
The Liu Nian Clan was a bunch of shameless people who were stingy for the sake of their own status.
The people who would say such things were probably idiots who had never been educated.
It was clearly written in the history textbooks that in the 100 years after the Great Destruction, both the Sword Ancestor calendar and the two generations of the Sword Ancestor's descendants had selflessly offered the Hundred Million Sword Art to the general public in an attempt to let them learn the Hundred Million Sword Art and save the human race.
However, the reality was tragic. Apart from those who had the Liu Nian Calendar's bloodline, no one else could learn the Hundred Million Sword Art.
Whether it was an ordinary person, a sword-bearer, or a talented sword immortal like Jiandi, they couldn't cultivate the Hundred Million Sword Art as long as they didn't have the Liu Nian Clan's bloodline.
It was as if it was made for the Liu Nian Clan.
Even Zhe Tian Jiandi didn't say anything after studying the Hundred Million Sword Art. He turned around and left, never mentioning the Hundred Million Sword Art again. Obviously, even Zhe Tian Jiandi couldn't cultivate this peerless technique passed down by the Kenzu Calendar.
Moreover, the Liu Nian Clan had a requirement for the Liu Nian Clan's bloodline. Once it was lower than a certain threshold, even someone from the Liu Nian Clan wouldn't be able to cultivate the Hundred Million Sword Art.
Furthermore, the Liu Nian Clan had a thin bloodline. Most of the time, they only had one descendant. Therefore, there were no more than three people in the Liu Nian Clan who could cultivate the Hundred Million Sword Art.
There was once an incident that caused the Liu Nian Clan to lose face.
One of the successors of the Liu Nian Clan lived to the age of twenty-four, but he could not cultivate the Billion Sword Art.
At first, all the elders and officials of the Liu Nian family were terrified. Had the Liu Nian family's bloodline become so thin?
Could it be that the Myriad-Sword Technique would no longer exist in the world?
That would be a huge disaster for mankind!
The father of this direct descendant, the family leader of the Liu Nian family, had been depressed because of this matter. He had desperately drunk himself to the point where his corpse was lying on the ground. A female Swordsman passing by had picked it up and given it a good beating.
When he woke up the next day, the patriarch found out about this ridiculous matter and left the female swordsman with an ashen face.
He was a man famous for loving his wife. Apart from his wife, he had never touched any other woman. He was the perfect model of a good man.
In the end, ten months later, the female Swordsman came with a child. She said that the child was the son of the patriarch of the Liu Nian family and had to be raised by the Liu Nian family … In a short period of time, this became the biggest news in Yanjing City. Rumors and guesses about the Liu Nian family, as well as the quarrel between the Liu Nian family's madam and the female Swordsman, occupied the headlines for an entire month.
After a paternity test, it was confirmed that the boy was indeed the son of the Liu Nian family, so the boy stayed in the Liu Nian family.
However, the patriarch of the Liu Nian family did not like him. This was because he loved his wife and his reputation.
He felt that the boy was a stain on his life.
As a result, although the boy had not been mistreated, he had been greatly suppressed.
From the time he was born until he was eighteen, he had not cultivated a single technique from the Liu Nian family. He had not received any resources from the Liu Nian family. What he had received was not even as much as a servant.
Things took a turn for the better when he was 18. Although his father was unwilling, according to the rules of the Sword Council, the boy was given the opportunity to synchronize with an ancient sword. On his birthday, he successfully synchronized with the symbol of the Liu Nian family, the Yi Xian Sword.
The boy's actions attracted the attention of the entire Liu Nian family. The fact that he could synchronize with the Yi Xian sword meant that the boy's bloodline was very thick. At the very least, it was much thicker than his older brother's bloodline, who was already forty-two years old but was still a treasure sword wielder.
Gradually, the Liu Nian family began to call for the boy to join the Liu Nian family. However, these calls were suppressed by his father and stepmother. Although he had become an Ancient Sword Wielder and obtained the Yi Xian Sword, the boy still could not obtain anything from the Liu Nian family. Although he had become an Ancient Sword Wielder and obtained the Yi Xian Sword, the boy still could not obtain anything from the Liu Nian family.
As a result, the boy became angry. He decided to leave the Liu Nian family and break all ties with the man who treated him like dirt. He would go out on his own and establish a family that was even stronger than the Liu Nian family!
According to the following development, the young master of the Liu Nian family should have had many fortuitous encounters and made many powerful friends. In the end, he would become an Emperor sword wielder and proudly return to the family to humiliate his father, who treated him like dirt.
Unfortunately, the plot did not develop like that. When the boy packed his things and planned to go out on his own, the Liu Nian family's mountain gate was breached. A furious Jiandi slaughtered his way from the mountain gate to the center of the Liu Nian family. He killed all the elders of the Liu Nian family, and all the servants were crippled. Jiandi had killed 80% of the Liu Nian family's combat power.
At this moment, the boy's father, who was also the Patriarch, came out to take a look and was instantly scared speechless. This Sword Emperor was none other than the female sword bearer who had picked him up when he was drunk and had sex with him before giving birth to his second son. This female sword bearer had actually become a Sword Emperor level sword bearer … What made the Patriarch deeply ashamed was that he was only a Spirit Sword level sword bearer.
This Jiandi immediately asked the man who had once been with her why he had treated her son like this.
Back then, she had felt that the Liu Nian family would be able to raise her son better, which was why she had reluctantly given him to the Liu Nian family. Now, her son had been a cripple for 18 years and had been raised as a pig for 18 years. No wonder this Jiandi had come all the way from the mountain gate to slap the Liu Nian family's face.
As such, the boy's mother requested that the Liu Nian family raise her son as the next family leader. All the resources, secret techniques, and sword techniques had to be passed on to her son.
However, the family leader was quite stubborn and did not agree. He said that he would never acknowledge this second son. He would only acknowledge the eldest son that he had with his beloved. The Liu Nian family would definitely be passed on to his eldest son.
This completely infuriated Jiandi. He wreaked havoc in the Liu Nian family again, forcing out two of the family's old retainers.
These two old retainers were said to have fought alongside Kenzu. Their seniority and prestige in the Liu Nian family were frighteningly high. They normally did not come out, but this Jiandi had wreaked too much havoc. He had almost damaged the Liu Nian family's bloodline, so these two old retainers had no choice but to come out.
As such, these two old retainers started to mediate. They first fiercely scolded the family leader, saying that the Liu Nian family should treat everyone equally.
Since he was a direct descendant of the Liu Nian family, he had the right to learn the Liu Nian family's techniques.
Afterwards, they called over the family leader's two sons and had them compete. Whoever won would become the family leader's successor.
At this point, everyone could tell that these two old retainers were siding with the family leader.
This was because the second son had only just become an Ancient Sword Tier sword-wielder, while the eldest son had been a Treasure Sword Tier sword-wielder for more than 20 years. He had also learned the Liu Nian family's peak sword techniques and secret techniques. No matter what, the eldest son should have been the winner, not the second son who knew nothing.
In the end, something laughable happened. In less than three minutes, the eldest son was beaten to the ground by the second son, and he was covered with injuries.
No one had expected that the second son had actually mastered the Hundred Million Sword Art.
This was because the Hundred Million Sword Art could only be cultivated by descendants of the Liu Nian family with a high enough bloodline.
As such, even though the Hundred Million Sword Art was incredibly powerful, the Liu Nian family had no intention of keeping it a secret. They placed the stone stele with the Hundred Million Sword Art in the main hall so that everyone could see it and study it. This was the only sword technique that the second son could cultivate.
Seeing that their second son had actually mastered the Hundred Million Sword Art, the two old retainers immediately changed their minds and fully supported their second son to become the next family leader.
What a joke. If the next leader of the Liu Nian Family could not even learn the Billion Sword Technique, how could he be the leader of the Liu Nian Family? The Liu Nian Family would become a complete joke.
This naturally caused the family leader to retaliate. He loved his wife too much. Even though he knew that his second son was the most suitable candidate, he still insisted on making his eldest son the successor.
This idiot even used his own position to threaten him. He said that if he wanted to make his second son the successor, then he would even take away his position as the family head. He would never bow his head. He believed that true love was invincible.
Unfortunately, while he believed that true love was invincible, it didn't mean that the two old men believed that true love was invincible. Furthermore, his second son had a Sword Thearch as his mother. This was an important connection for the Liu Nian Clan!
As a result, the two old antiques had called a family meeting to expel the patriarch that very day. Afterward, the second son had been promoted to the position of patriarch, and the second son had become the youngest patriarch in the history of the Liu Nian family.
Then, the second son, who had inexplicably become the head of the family, announced his first order, which was to capture the eldest son and his father … Don't get me wrong, he wasn't stupid enough to take revenge on his biological father at this time. He just forcibly extracted the blood of the two people, and then went to do a paternity test.
As a result, the greatest joke in the history of the Liu Nian family was born. The eldest son whom the family leader had protected so much, and whom he had risked his position to protect, was actually not a child of the Liu Nian family, but a bastard child of the family leader's wife and next-door neighbor, Old Wang … Furthermore, the two of them had been in an adulterous relationship for more than forty years. A few days before Jiandi had attacked, the two of them had even had sex and dreamed about the beautiful future of the Liu Nian family becoming the Old Wang family.
Needless to say, the two adulterers were torn to shreds by the enraged Old Antique, while the eldest son was chased out of the Liunian clan. As for the patriarch who had almost ended the Liunian clan's legacy, he was locked up in the ancestral land forever to reflect on his mistakes … In fact, he didn't need to be locked up; the moment he found out the truth, he went crazy.
The Liu Nian family did everything they could to cover it up, even erasing the family leader's name from their genealogy and treating him as if he didn't exist.
But they still couldn't stop this joke from spreading throughout the human world, and even Yuan Kou's side learned about it.
After that, the Liu Nian family set up a new rule: in any case, the heir of the family leader had to learn the Myriad Sword Art, and anyone who couldn't could do a paternity test …
…
Right, there was one more thing to explain. This female Jiandi's title was Blood Juan Jiandi, and her son later became the fourth Jiandi of the Liu Nian family: Jiuli Jiandi.
They were the only mother and son pair in history who had fought against the Sword Emperor.
The eldest son who had been chased out of the family had a beautiful daughter, who later married an immortal sword wielder and gave birth to a daughter.
After many years, this daughter grew up and became the famous Ming Yuan Jiandi.
There was nothing more interesting in the world than this.
