From pioneer lord to king

Chapter 26 The Abyss (asking for tickets)

Sterling didn't seem to understand the hidden meaning in Ryan's tone, but instead wanted to try Ryan's swordsmanship like a teacher who was testing a student's homework.

"I don't think my progress will let you down." Ryan readily pulled out his saber and prepared his fighting posture. Now he is going to try his level!

"Okay, you draw your sword first." Sterling laughed, and stood with his sword drawn, still full of gentlemanly demeanor.

Ryan squinted his eyes, rushed forward with a stride, and slashed down with a long sword in an arc. This was a competition of pure swordsmanship. After all, the realm of fighting spirit between the two was not in the same order of magnitude.

"Chong"

With just a slight lift of the sword in the opponent's hand, Ryan's heavy sword was subtly resolved, but his position did not move at all.

Ryan raised his brows, followed the trend with a set of silky combo moves, and the long sword "swished" in the cold wind.

"clang clang"

Sterling's face remained unchanged, and he calmly accepted his offensive. From the beginning to now, he still hasn't moved a step.

"Teacher, be careful!" Ryan yelled loudly, leaped forward, and raised the long sword in his hand high, the blade gleaming coldly under the sunlight.

The opponent's expression finally became a little serious, the muscles all over his body contracted and exploded instantly, and he retreated several meters at an incredible speed, as if he was flying out.

Lion's sword clattered on the paved floor, cracking a thick slab of stone.

"Shhh"

Sterling rushed over like an arrow from the string, slashed horizontally with a sword, and the sound of the blade cutting through the air exploded in Ryan's ears.

He had no choice but to subconsciously block the sword in front of himself, a series of sparks flew in all directions, before he had time to react, the opponent's attacks followed like a torrential wind.

Ryan had to rely on the fighting instinct he had developed over the years to passively accept the move, and the heavy force made him retreat again and again.

Seeing that he was about to retreat to the corner, Ryan's eyes froze, he turned sideways suddenly, and pointed the long sword at Sterling's throat at a strange angle.

And Sterling's sword had already reached his chest, and Ryan only needed to move slightly to see the Lord of Light.

After all, he still missed half a move, but Ryan also knew in his heart that if he really fought, he could only retreat with his whole body by relying on the power of the source to strengthen his whole body.

"Hahaha, very good, Lei. After being honed on the battlefield, your swordsmanship has indeed improved by leaps and bounds. I won't be your opponent in a long time." Sterling took the lead to withdraw his sword, his face was full of joy, as if I have seen the day when my students are better than blue.

"Teacher, if you are such a powerful swordsmanship master, I won't be able to catch up with you after a few more years of practice." Ryan slowly retracted his sword and sat down on the stool beside him.

"I know you have a lot to ask me, and I should tell you some things, after all, you are now the head of the Black family." Sterling sat down beside him, picked up a towel and wiped the invisible things with the naked eye. After sweating.

"I'm actually not Turan, that is, your father's follower. I'm your grandfather Garrett's guardian knight. When I was young, I followed him from a remote and remote place to Tistan. Now it's almost 30 years old. years.

At that time, your father was only in his teens, and you were not yet born, and strictly speaking, both your father and you were my students. "

There was a hint of reminiscence in Sterling's eyes, as if he saw the time when he followed that stalwart figure when he was young.

Ryan's eyes widened in surprise, and he felt a little absurd in his heart. He was actually a follower of his grandfather. Didn't he follow his grandfather when he was a teenager?

"That's right, the year you were born was our fifth year in Datistan. At that time, I was only 20 years old and your father was 16 years old." Sterling nodded and said the answer Ryan wanted.

16 years old!Ryan was shocked, that is to say, his cheap father married his mother at the age of 15, and the age of his mother... a beast!

This is why Ryan didn't turn his head around. In this era, whether it is aristocrats or commoners, marriage has long been the norm.If Ryan hadn't been conscripted into the army, his children would all be playing soy sauce by this time.

Because his mother was already looking for a marriage partner for him at that time, but in the end, he went to the battlefield without a candidate, and he didn't know that he had escaped by luck.

Sterling didn't know what Ryan was thinking, and said to himself: "Ray, your roots are not in Tistan, it is a very remote and barren place, some people choose to stay there, some people choose to go Continuing the family outside.

Your grandfather was the second heir of the Black family at the time, and he had an older brother who chose to stick to that place.And your grandfather chose to walk out of there and continue the family.

My ancestors have always taken it as their duty to protect the heirs of the Black family. I have always remembered the mission my ancestors entrusted to me. After my death, my son will also undertake this mission to protect the Black family. "

Ryan looked at Sterling, who was full of determination and reminiscence, and there was a huge wave in his heart. For a moment, he didn't know whether to believe his words.

He forced himself to calm down, and asked coldly: "Where is the place you mentioned?
Why did they stay in such a barren place, and why did your ancestors protect the Black family?Don't you think it's all too unbelievable! "

A trace of loneliness flashed in Sterling's eyes, and he slowly said: "That is a very distant place, where our ancestors have been guarding for generations.

According to the ancient prophecy, it is the channel connecting the world to the abyss. On the last night of every Jiazi, the sleeping abyss demon will wake up from the abyss and wreak havoc on the continent.

It was the mission of our ancestors to keep those demons out there.

Barrenness is relative. Although it is difficult for vegetation to grow there, the concentration of supernatural power is five times that of here. Almost everyone in our place is a supernatural being, and they practice very fast.

The Black family is one of the five guarding families. It originated from an ancient and great strong man, and my ancestors were followers of that strong man. We follow the great surname of Black. "

Ryan was deeply shocked by his words, although what he said was as funny as the stories told by bards.

Almost everyone is a transcendent, and there are demons from the abyss... It's just telling a story!

But he asked in a strange way: "Are there many such families?"

"Of course, the five major families are all derived from five ancient and great powerhouses. Tens of thousands of guardian families once gathered under the five glorious surnames!" Sterling suddenly became a little excited, his eyes sparkling.

"What did you mean?"

Hearing this, the light in Sterling's eyes dimmed, and his tone became low and sad: "Some people died in battle, and the brilliant surnames were buried in the dust.

Some broke the oaths of their ancestors, and by fleeing, they stained the honorable names of their ancestors.

Some people fought to the end, and only the survivors took their family seeds and scattered to various kingdoms to continue the bloodline.

More people are still standing there, for the glory and glory of their ancestors..."
