Chapter 1015: Gongxi Kuangdao’s Oath
“You’ve been in the demon dimension for so many years, but you haven’t thought of a way to forge a spiritual weapon?” asked Ling Chuxi in confusion. It had been at least ten thousand years and yet none of the Gongxi clansmen had been able to forge a spiritual weapon? Were they famous for being genius blacksmiths in name only? Or was there a better reason for their current incapability?
“We would like to, but the demon dimension is completely different from the Sacred Realm of the Sects. We simply couldn’t find the Purple Silver Sand that is necessary to forge the Spiritual Treasure Mirror. When I returned to the Sacred Realm of the Sect this time, I had utilized every single method and opportunity just to succeed. Right now, the most important thing is to find the Purple Silver Sand. Ever since we went to the demon dimension, not only has our clan’s strength declined, but even our forging skills too. No one has ever forged a spirit weapon ever since we arrived there,” said Gongxi Kuangdao in shame.
“I see. Please, get up first.” Ling Chuxi finally understood. The Gongxi clan didn’t have the materials or the strength to forge the Spiritual Treasure Mirror. So, it was no wonder they have not been able to return to the Sacred Realm of the Sects.
“My Lady, you agree to help us?” asked Gongxi Kuangdao in surprise.
“As you know, forging a spiritual weapon isn’t that easy. It requires luck, and I was just lucky this time. So, I’m not sure if I can help you forge the Spiritual Treasure Mirror. But I’ll try my best as long as there’s a chance.” Ling Chuxi didn’t think too much about it. After all, she was only forging a spiritual weapon. It was up to her whether she could succeed or not. Seeing how miserable the Gongxi clan was, she decided to help them along the way.
“Thank you for your kindness, my Lady. I, Gongxi Kuangdao, swear on my blood that I will serve you for the rest of my life, at your command! If I have even the slightest bit of rebelliousness, I will definitely die under your blade!” Gongxi Kuangdao was overjoyed as he solemnly took out his blade and made a cut on his arm. Blood gushed out and a strange array-like red glow appeared which did not dissipate for a long time.
At first, Ling Chuxi thought that he was just casually swearing an oath, but after seeing the red glow, ripples appeared in her spiritual ocean. A deep and heavy hum appeared in her mind at the same time, and she felt as if she had signed an ancient contract with the sword spirit.
Only now did she know that the oath made by Gongxi Kuangdao was similar to a contract. Once it was spoken, it could never be changed. Ling Chuxi had never heard of such a contract oath in the world, but when she thought about the origins of the Gongxi clan, she didn’t grow too worried anymore. Those ancient aristocratic families that were born in ancient times had too many secrets that no one knew.
The demons wanted to enslave the Gongxi clan forever, which meant they would have used such a contract before.
Gongxi Kuangdao’s subordinates also did the same, performing a blood oath to Ling Chuxi.
“Actually, there’s no need to be so serious. I Can’t guarantee that I will succeed.” Ling Chuxi was embarrassed by their actions.
“As long as my Lady is willing to help us, and with your talent and strength, we are confident that you will succeed.” Gongxi Kuangdao was full of confidence in Ling Chuxi. Or rather, he had to be full of confidence in Ling Chuxi because other than her, he really couldn’t think of anyone else who could forge the and help the Gongxi clan escape from the demon dimension.
“I hope so. Oh right, I’ll give you the antidote. Take the antidote and the poison will be completely cured.” Ling Chuxi took out a few pills to be handed to them. They had sworn a blood oath to her, so no one bothered about the poison binding them anymore.
