Chapter 0 126. Choosing a Sword
“You…”
Godplunder Altar roared, and as if realizing something, said: “My previous guess was not wrong, Demon Lord Jia Ren was just deceived by you, you scoundrel are indeed more inclined to consider yourself as a human!”
“Alright, alright, if you continue like this, everyone will think I hired you!”
Qin Gou had just enjoyed himself and turned his back on Godplunder Altar. With a wave of his hand, he dispersed the consciousness and light cluster of Godplunder Altar, no longer allowing it to pester him.
He wasn’t afraid that Godplunder Altar would have any other wicked ideas and try to rely on others to escape. This guy had already been targeted by the system.
A moment later.
After explaining the matter of Yan Shang and Godplunder Altar, and how he planned to deal with Yan Shang using the Xie Yu Dharma Image and a crowd of fanatical Bi Fang cultivators, Qin Gou did not forget Yan Cang Zhou’s request. He immediately looked at the Little Gambler and said, “Yuan Zhen, I remember you said that after your Invisible Slash Spirit Tool advances, you can help cultivators who have been cut down by you multiple times to regain consciousness?”
“That’s right.” Li Yuan Zhen lightly nodded her head. “There are many benefits after the Spirit Tool advances, but I can’t bear to use my Myriad Derivations… True Love Sword to complete the advancement.”
“Then your opportunity has come. As long as you promise to help Yan Qi Hao regain consciousness after the advancement, you can choose any sword and Emperor Weapon from the Bi Fang Treasury!” Qin Gou said with a smile. “The Fire Crow Bi Fang Clan has a rich heritage, and there will definitely be an Emperor Weapon that will satisfy you, thus achieving a perfect advancement.”
“Yan Qi Hao? Didn’t I personally cut him into a foolish idiot who only sleeps a few days ago? Now you want me to wake him up again, and the Fire Crow Bi Fang Clan will reward me with a top-tier Emperor Weapon?” Li Yuan Zhen’s expression startled.
“Exactly.” Qin Gou nodded his head with a serious expression. “You only need to wake him up, but you don’t need to help him fully recover his memory. By then, he will probably thank Yuan Zhen for the rest of his life.”
…
On the way to where Yan Cang Zhou was with Li Yuan Zhen, they actually ran into Yi Chengying and Ren Su chasing each other and laughing. This seemed to be a game proposed by Xiao Su.
“Lord Qin, look, Little Chair has obtained another identity token. This time it’s from the Ren Clan!” Upon seeing Qin Gou, Yi Chengying smiled beautifully and immediately presented a dark golden token covered in demonic patterns in her hand as if offering a treasure.
“Oh? Did Xiao Su give this to you?”
“No, it was Sister Jia Ren who just gave it to me.”
“What?” Qin Gou was stunned. Ren Ci had only met Little Chair a few times at most, and they only knew each other’s names. When did that wench become so easy to get along with?
Yi Chengying immediately explained with tacit understanding: “It’s just… Sister Jia Ren just told me that she envied how good her relationship with Little Chair and Xiao Su was. But I told her that Xiao Su actually respects Sister Jia Ren the most in her heart. Xiao Su is just too shy to say it to her directly! With that, Sister Jia Ren was happy and gave me this token, saying that she hopes to get along well with children like Xiao Su with some of Little Chair’s small experiences.”
Qin Gou then understood… Is this the strength of the “King of Spies” of the Mystic Maiden Raksha Palace? In this case, wouldn’t Little Chair once again be the intermediary between Ren Ci and Xiao Su through her powers of deception?
This chair really gets along well with everyone.
At this moment, the Third Elder Yan Cang Zhou also came to Qin Gou proactively.
“Elder Cang Zhou, Yuan Zhen and I were just planning to find you,” Qin Gou immediately smiled kindly at Yan Cang Zhou.
Yan Cang Zhou cupped his fists and said: “This old man also came to lead Senior Qin and Fellow Daoist Li to the Emperor Weapon Hall. However, before that, does Fellow Daoist Li need to see the situation of that child Qi Hao in person?”
Li Yuan Zhen said confidently: “Qin has already informed me of the specific situation. This is indeed my area of expertise. I am already very confident that I can wake up Fellow Daoist Qi Hao.”
“I see! I knew that trusting Fellow Daoist Qin and Fellow Daoist Li was definitely the right choice!” Yan Cang Zhou’s spirits were immediately lifted. He extended his hand and said: “Please follow me!”
…
Emperor Weapon Hall.
Led by Yan Cang Zhou, as soon as Qin and Li entered the Sword Pavilion, where the top-tier sword Emperor Weapons were mainly stored, dozens of divine weapons protected by spiritual light, floating in the air, immediately came into view.
“My Fire Crow Bi Fang Clan is not particularly skilled in swordsmanship, but over the years, we have still collected some. I hope it will satisfy Fellow Daoist Li,” Yan Cang Zhou said earnestly from the side.
Hearing this, Li Yuan Zhen lightly nodded her head, stepped forward, and carefully selected one sword after another.
During this period, Li Xiaogou remained silent. Her clear phoenix-like eyes were sometimes solemn, and sometimes gentle as water. Although this dog was addicted to gambling, she was ultimately from the Sword Questioning Sect of Das, and she was also very passionate about these rare swords tempered by killing intent.
One incense stick later.
Qin Gou noticed that only Li Yuan Zhen’s hand had the treasure sword that she had been playing with for the longest time. She had carefully examined it for a long time, and he guessed that she must have seen its unusual mystery and was very fond of it.
“You like this one?” Qin Gou came to Li Yuan Zhen’s side and asked.
“Yes. It’s just that this treasure sword is truly too wondrous, making it difficult to put down. In any sect, it would probably be a treasure to guard the sect. If it were to be used merely as a medium for my Spirit Tool advancement, it would be a bit inappropriate, wouldn’t it?” The Little Gambler stretched out her fair little hand, gently stroked the sword body, and said with great affection.
“Why are you feeling heartache for others over a treasure? The Fire Crow Bi Fang Clan is the wealthiest and most powerful in the Beast Land. Didn’t they agree to let you choose freely, and you can take away whatever you like?”
Qin Gou gave a chuckle and said in a low voice: “Besides, didn’t you hear Elder Cang Zhou say earlier? The Bi Fang clan is not skilled in swordsmanship at all. These swords were probably offerings from other spiritual beast tribes. So, even if you pity the divine weapons and leave them for them, these pitiful little fellows can probably only continue to gather dust here.”
“That’s true.” Li Yuan Zhen seemed to be persuaded and immediately agreed.
“You understand what I mean?” Qin Gou smiled knowingly, reached out his hand to take the sword from Li Yuan Zhen, and then they would leave together.
“This humble Daoist understands!”
Immediately after, Li Yuan Zhen suddenly nodded forcefully, giving Qin Gou a ‘I understand you’ look, then a look of disbelief appeared in her eyes. She took two steps back, covered her small mouth, and exclaimed loudly: “What? The Bi Fang clan means that I can choose all of these? This is too much, this humble Daoist can at most take ten… I’ll feel unworthy if I take more!”
“You…”
The corner of Qin Gou’s mouth twitched violently. Was that what he meant? This dog’s amazing train of thought was incredible… He just meant to remind her that it would be a waste not to take advantage of the situation, not that she should go beyond that!
