"Xuan Ye, is there something you need to tell me? Speak," he demanded.
Xuan Ye dared not behave as arrogantly as Xuan Yue, and quickly responded respectfully, "Yes, Your Holiness. It is like this: during my search for Yue Yue, I encountered traces of the Sword of Hades."
The Pope was startled and exclaimed, "What, the Sword of Hades? Have you finally found that assassin?"
Xuan Ye shook his head, "Not the assassin, but his disciple." He then recounted how his subordinate, Ying Yi, discovered Ah Dai possessing the Sword of Hades, how he went to the Tian Gang Sword Sect to search for Xuan Yue, and the conflict that occurred with the Tian Gang Sword Sect. He merely concealed his agreement on the wager with the Sword Saint of the Tian Gang, as he did not want to kindle any hope in his daughter's heart.
