“Mother!” Yun Xi felt the terrifying sword energy emanating from Yun Che, and her heart instantly leaped into her throat. Without a second thought, she rushed to Shen Xi’s room. She knew all too well that the person most concerned about this matter in the world was none other than her mother.
As soon as she stepped into the room, a look of fear suddenly appeared on her face.
"Mother, mother, what's wrong with you?" Yun Xi saw Shen Xi lying motionless on the ground, and her entire body was instantly in disarray. She rushed over like a flash, hurriedly helped Shen Xi up, and frantically examined her mother's body. Fortunately, she found no external injuries.
Shen Xi slowly woke up in Yun Xi's arms, but not a trace of profound energy was left in her body, and she felt completely exhausted.
“What the hell is going on with me?” Shen Xi’s face was filled with confusion, and her eyes were filled with bewilderment. Even she herself didn’t know what was going on, and her mind was in a state of chaos.
Just moments ago, she was intently attempting to decipher the secrets hidden within the Ancestral Sword of Heaven-Slaying. She instantly sensed the terrifying sword energy emanating from Yun Che, and knew he must be in some danger. Anxious, Shen Xi instinctively wanted to rush to his aid, armed with the Ancestral Sword of Heaven-Slaying.
But at the moment when she reached out to grasp the Zhutian Ancestral Sword, she was shocked to find that the sword spirit soul imprint she left in the sword was ruthlessly erased by a force that came from nowhere. In an instant, her connection with the Zhutian Ancestral Sword was completely severed, and then she fainted.
"The Ancestral Sword of Heaven-Slaying… I remember it!" Shen Xi's eyes flashed, and she eagerly glanced at the Ancestral Sword beside her. However, at this moment, she no longer felt the close connection she once had with this supreme treasure of the Xuantian Heavens. She couldn't help but blurt out, "Its connection with me has been severed. I am no longer the sword spirit of the Ancestral Sword of Heaven-Slaying!"
Shen Xi had never dreamed that, without warning, she would truly break free from the constraints of the Heaven-Slaying Ancestral Sword and gain the opportunity to exist completely independently. But instead of the slightest joy on her face, she was instead shrouded in deep worry.
Because she suddenly found that she couldn't even touch the Zhutian Ancestral Sword. The sword seemed to be full of repulsion towards her, emitting an invisible yet powerful force, preventing her from getting close.
“Mother.” Seeing Shen Xi’s distraught appearance, Yun Xi felt deeply distressed. With eyes filled with pity, she said, “Are you alright? Don’t worry about this sword. As long as you’re safe, that’s all that matters.”
"No, this sword is vital to Yun Che. I must take it!" Shen Xi struggled to her feet, determined to take the Heaven-Slaying Ancestral Sword. But before she could get close, a powerful force suddenly emanated from the sword, like a surging wave, pushing her away fiercely.
“Mother!” Yun Xi hurriedly helped Shen Xi up again, tears welling in her eyes. “Don’t move. Let me try!”
Yun Xi felt that perhaps her mother's lack of profound strength was the reason she couldn't lift the Heaven-Slaying Ancestral Sword. She wanted to accomplish this for her mother.
But as she approached, the same situation reappeared. She, too, was sent flying backwards by the Heaven-Slaying Ancestral Sword, and the recoil was even more powerful than what Shen Xi had endured.
“Xi’er!” Shen Xi cried out in a frantic panic, stretching out her hands and struggling desperately, trying to crawl to Yun Xi’s side. She had never imagined that even Yun Xi couldn’t withstand the power of the Heaven-Slaying Ancestral Sword.
"Let's not try anymore, let's not try anymore. Let's go now and see how your father is doing." Shen Xi looked at his daughter, feeling incredibly distressed. Ultimately, he reluctantly decided to forgo taking the Zhutian Ancestral Sword, wanting to wait until he returned to investigate the changes that had occurred to the sword.
"Mom, I'm fine." Yun Xiqiang forced a strong smile and said, "Let's go."
-----------------
“As long as your father is safe and sound, then everything is sufficient. Let’s go and go back to see what the situation is with the Heaven-Slaying Ancestral Sword.” Although Shen Xi couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed, she quickly stopped worrying after confirming that Yun Che was safe and sound.
The change in the Zhutian Ancestral Sword was like a sharp thorn, deeply piercing her heart, making it difficult for her to let go. She immediately decided to find out the condition of the sword first.
