Chapter 43: Sword Saint of the Tian Gang

The cave was not far from the Sword Sect, and soon, the eight of them arrived outside the cave. Xi Wen called out loudly, "Master, your disciple Xi Wen seeks an audience. There's news of Ninth Disciple." His voice, wrapped in True Qi, traveled into the deep cave.

After a moment, an echo came from inside the cave. "Yes. I just heard the Heaven Profound Bell. Did you find Owen's disciple? All of you come in." It was the clear voice of the Sword Saint of the Tian Gang.

"Yes, Master," Xi Wen responded, leading Ah Dai and his fellow disciples into the cave.

Ah Dai looked around. The cave was completely natural, with no traces of human craftsmanship, and it was very deep. They walked about a hundred meters before turning a corner and coming upon a somewhat spacious cavern. In the center of the cavern, a man was sitting cross-legged on a large rock. Due to the dim light, Ah Dai could not see the man's face clearly.
