Chapter 841: Got Into A Big Mess
‘Boss, why didn’t you discuss with me before you said that?’ Ling Chuxi inwardly groaned. She was being dragged into this mess, which was exactly what she had feared would happen. The Cang Yuan sword master’s opponents were probably old monsters that survived for ten thousands of years—seeking them out for revenge was just inviting disaster. Before this, he had never even asked her to do such an impossible task!
“You’re talking about her? Hahaha! At the realm of True Essence, she plans to take revenge for the Lord Sword Master? Sword spirit, did you lose your mind?” The sword heart laughed loudly.
“As long as she has Cang Yuan’s aid, she will have cultivation comparable to that of the Lord Sword Master’s sooner or later,” the sword spirit said firmly.
“Actually, I think that what this sword heart senior said is quite reasonable. With my cultivation, it really would be quite difficult to take revenge for the Cang Yuan sword master. In my opinion, since this happened thousands of years ago, any feelings of love or hatred should be gone by now. What if everyone moved forward? We could just make the other party apologize and offer incense in front of Cang Yuan senior’s grave, what do you think?” Ling Chuxi said jokingly to the sword spirit with an awkward smile. Although she knew that her lame joke wasn’t funny right now, she really didn’t want to be dragged into this.
What kind of a joke was this anyway? She had managed to transmigrate back after much difficulty, and had not even gotten to enjoy her life here yet. Why would she be interested in fighting old monsters? As for the revenge of the Cang Yuan sword master… sorry, but she was not familiar with him, so she wasn’t obligated to avenge him. Frankly, even if she did, she didn’t have the ability anyway.
The sword heart and the sword spirit glanced at Ling Chuxi, one with a sneer and the other with an angry look.
“Do you think it can just be forgotten because you say so? The death of Lord Sword Master back then was actually greatly related to the Cang Yuan sword. As long as the seven shards of Cang Yuan sword’s remnants aren’t destroyed, those people will never give up. You and I have signed the Divine Sword Ancient Contract, so even if you don’t go to them, they will find you sooner or later anyway,” the sword spirit said to Ling Chuxi unhappily.
‘I couldn’t be that unlucky, right? I just wanted a sword to use against my opponents… Out of all those swords, why did I have to bring back this problematic one?’ Ling Chuxi was practically dying of regret now. Who was it who said that one must have a defence against others but never have the intention of wanting to harm people? It was truly accurate. She herself had wanted to harm others, but before she could, she had already gotten into trouble. Back then, that shopkeeper had said that the Luo Chen sword was a cursed sword, and whoever got it became unlucky. Ling Chuxi had just wanted to play a prank by giving it to whoever she wanted to harm, but she had unfortunately decided against it. The shopkeeper was right—whoever got the sword became unlucky. This time, she had gotten into a mess…and it was a huge mess!
Ling Chuxi recalled the moment when she obtained Cang Yuan’s sword soul. A terrifyingly strong man had appeared after she left the Little Silver Ancient Mountain, so the sword spirit definitely wasn’t lying. That guy had come for the Cang Yuan sword, and there would probably be more strong cultivators eyeing it too.
Many young heroes in the world were eager to get the Cang Yuan sword, but only Ling Chuxi felt that the Cang Yuan sword was a hot potato. Did that make Ling Chuxi an oddball? It probably did.
“Sword heart, you’re one of the seven shards of Cang Yuan’s remnants. Even if you wanted to stay out of trouble, others won’t leave you alone,” sword spirit said quietly.
“So what? With my spirit body and the White Jade Crystal Heart, even if I don’t have the strength to fight them, they won’t be able to catch me. Besides, when I smelt my own sword body, who would know that I am one of the shards of the Cang Yuan sword?” The sword heart shook its head and said, “You should leave. Since we were both born of the same sword, I will not make things difficult for you.”
