As long as the sword is in hand, I live; if the sword is destroyed, I perish.
This was what Ye Yun's master at the Dragon God Sect told him a hundred thousand years ago.
If even the sword is no longer there, then naturally the master is gone as well.
Or one could say,
Back then on the Cangnan Continent, after the Dragon God Sect experienced a calamity...
This White Dragon Sword might have fallen into the hands of another disciple.
This disciple, in the guise of a Black Ming Divine Spider, luckily survived and then, through the Ancient Road to Heaven, arrived at the Divine Land.
The Divine Land is no paradise.
This disciple also encountered a catastrophe and perished, the White Dragon Sword randomly fell into a river.
Finally, it was picked up by an old hawker of advanced age.
Fortunately, the quality of this sword had deteriorated so significantly that it hadn't been sold after all this time.
That was when Ye Yun and Gu Anran came across it.
