Chapter 859: A Dream Come True
“So that’s it!” Su Yizhi exclaimed excitedly. “My Golden Pill Sect seniors probably discovered the crystal heart and hid the mine within the Four Wonder Array, leaving it for the sect’s future generations to utilize!”
“Wait a minute… Ah, it’s ruined now! You took the crystal heart, so the White Jade Crystal mine will only become less and less!” Thinking of this, Su Yizhi looked distraught as he scratched his head frantically.
“Don’t worry, of course I’m not that dumb. I left half of it there,” Ling Chuxi said reassuringly, smiling at the old man.
“That’s good, that’s good. Since the array has collapsed, I will arrange manpower to explore the crystal mine veins, and immediately mine the crystals. These crystal hearts will not even be needed,” Su Yizhi said impatiently. The issues that had troubled him for so long had been resolved so easily, so naturally he was overjoyed.
“Hold on, there’s still more!” Ling Chuxi took out the ancient sword and handed it to Su Yizhi.
“This… This is…” Su Yizhi had seen countless precious treasures over the years. As soon as the sword was removed out of its sheath, he knew that rare fine gold and silver had been added to it, and it could be called a peerless divine weapon. Of course, he was more generous than Cang Yuan, who believed that if a sword didn’t have spirituality, it could not be considered good or a divine weapon.
“Could it be… Is this the sword of our Golden Pill Sect?” Su Yizhi gasped in disbelief, feeling slightly dizzy.
“Yes, this is the sword of the Golden Pill Sect!” Ling Chuxi nodded, leaving the issue of the sword heart aside. This sword was indeed the sword of the sect, so she technically wasn’t lying.
“Uh…” Su Yizhi clasped the sword sheath tightly, so excited that he couldn’t even speak or breathe. In the end, his eyes rolled back into his head and he fainted.
“Elder Su!” Ling Chuxi and the rest quickly held Su Yizhi up. Ling Chuxi checked Su Yizhi’s pulse. Fortunately, he had just lost consciousness due to excessive excitement, and there was nothing serious about it.
Ling Chuxi calmed down and wiped off her sweat. She was used to seeing Su Yizhi’s composed demeanor, as if he could watch a mountain collapse without flinching. She knew that his ability to withstand shock was good, so why had he fainted for such a small issue? If she had known, she would not have taken out the sword so early. If something were to happen to him because of this, wouldn’t she be the culprit?
The more she thought about it though, the more it made sense. Su Yizhi was still human, and the news that Ling Chuxi had brought was like a dream come true for him.
Ling Chuxi originally wanted to hand over the rest of the White Jade Crystal Hearts to Ling Yichen and the rest, but since Su Yizhi was unconscious, she had to send Su Yizhi back to his courtyard first. Ling Chuxi eased Su Yizhi’s breathing and blood flow, and after a while, the old man woke up leisurely.
“Elder Su, how do you feel?” Ling Chuxi quickly took a calming and rejuvenating pill and handed it over to him.
“I’m fine, I’m fine. I was just far too excited.” Su Yizhi swallowed the pill with a sigh of relief. “Chuxi, thanks to you, we finally found the Treasured Sword of our Golden Pill Sect that had been lost for many years. Finally, I can feel relieved.”
“Elder Su, don’t rush to speak, rest for a bit first.” Seeing Su Yizhi’s excitement, Ling Chuxi quickly helped steady his breathing.
It was hard to blame Su Yizhi for being so excited. For the clan heads of the Su family, this sword was their hope of rebuilding the Golden Pill Sect. It was easy to rebuild a sect, but if it had no great martial prowess, no matter how strong their medical skills and financial resources, it would still be difficult to gain a foothold in the Sacred Realm of Sects.
