Chu Yang, the Ninth Master of the Nine Tribulations Sword, sacrificed almost everything he had for the sake of improving his martial arts, including the love of his life. After spending three years locating the fifth fragment of the Nine Tribulations Sword, he was ambushed by all sides at that very place. Mortally injured with no means of escape, Chu Yang executed a sacrificial technique by plunging the Nine Tribulations Sword into his very own heart. “With the blood of my heart, ten thousand tribulations will collapse!” After witnessing the death of all his ambushers, Chu Yang’s vision began to darken. At a distance, moments before his death, he saw the mastermind who had plotted his downfall — Mo Tian Ji. With that, his eyes finally closed. However, with a start, Chu Yang once again awoke to find that he had returned to when he was sixteen years of age! Furthermore, the Sword Spirit of the Nine Tribulations Sword now resided within his Dantian, the energy center of his body! From that very moment, Chu Yang would then begin to right all of his past regrets, and carve his very own legend by fulfilling his destiny as the final Master of the Nine Tribulations Sword, and defeating the Heavenly Devils beyond the realm of the Nine Heavens Continent.
Old Master Chu stopped walking. As he listened to the constant screams from the small yard, he let out a long sigh. He felt himself being put in a great quandary.
The old master had long been very miserable. I'm not suitable for being a clan master. All that I can do is to create troubles. I'm not interested in these power disputes, and has long been trying to stay away from them as far as possible. I can also admit that I'm half-witted. But why would my elder appoint me to be the clan master then?
It's a pity that I've been toasted on this blazing fire for so many years…
…
That afternoon, he held a clan meeting. The majority stood to their opinion to take in Chu Yang's medical center to the clan, and the opinions of Chu Feiling, his wife and Duan Shuyi were directly ignored.
The resolution was passed almost unanimously.
