Chapter 327 Blood Melting Box
When Tao Zi heard this, she knew what it was and said, "In a sense, it is indeed mine."
Cheng Wuchou nodded and took the box out of his arms.
The red light had grown faint. He stroked the symbol and sighed, "What an ancient symbol."
Tao Zi remembered that Cheng Wuchou might be a descendant of the Xuanyue royal family, and asked, "Cheng Zhenjun, what do you mean by this?"
Cheng Wuchou smiled and said, "It's nothing. Since it's yours, just take it and don't let others find out."
She took the box and said thank you quietly.
Before he turned and left, Tao Zi couldn't help but ask, "Cheng Zhenjun, do you really not know who I am?"
The diagnosis of Qiu Xuanhuan, Yue Qingya, the Thousand Needle Doctor, her hatred for the Minglan Sect, and even the source of the plague are enough to make people think of one person.
He stopped, looked down at her, and asked, "Does your previous identity matter?"
“What if I feel important?”
Cheng Wuchou said word by word: "Then you will never be able to get out of it in your lifetime."
"But I will never be able to take revenge in my lifetime."
He sighed, "I still feel it's not worth it."
"That's because it's not you who's going through all this, so naturally you feel it's not worth it."
He looked at her and finally shook his head helplessly: "I have seen people who are obsessed with their beliefs and cannot be persuaded. You are the same."
Tao Zi smiled and watched him leave before shifting her gaze to the box in her arms.
The faint red light on the box was already extremely weak. She tried to open the box, but failed no matter whether she used brute force or spiritual energy.
After thinking about it, she took out the broken sword - they were all left by the imperial princess, maybe there was some connection - she had to admit that this idea was a bit stupid.
As soon as the broken sword came out of the sword box, it flew up by itself and circled around Tao Zi.
Tao Zi placed the box in her hand and asked, "Do you have a way to open this box?"
The broken sword flew around her hand and decisively pierced her finger with the tip of the sword. Fortunately, the white gauze was wrapped tightly enough and no bleeding was caused.
Tao Zi: "...Should I lament that you're too weak, or should I thank Li Xiu for wrapping it well enough?"
Canjian seemed to understand what she said, and hit her on the head with the hilt of the sword, then flew back into the sword box, unwilling to pay any attention to her.
Tao Zi laughed in silence, closed the sword box, and put it back into the storage ring.
She touched the puncture mark on the white gauze, pondered for a few seconds, tore off the gauze, and pierced her fingertip with a dagger, and blood dripped onto the box.
The red light was very bright, but it disappeared in an instant.
Tao Zi vaguely realized that there seemed to be an extra contract on her, and the other party to the contract was... a box?
The box still needs a contract? She looked at the box blankly, tentatively placing her finger on it.
Suddenly, a small amount of blood gushed out from the wound on the fingertip and was all sucked away by the box.
The suction only lasted for a moment, and before Tao Zi could move her hand away, it disappeared without a trace. A faint voice sounded in her ears: The contract is done.
The Blood Melting Box is a ninth-grade immortal artifact that can withstand a full-strength attack from a spirit being transformed. It cannot be opened without overcoming a tribulation.
When this information flooded into Tao Zi's mind, she took a breath and finally understood why the alien said that the princess's things must be good things.
To be honest, she has always been unlucky. The only magical weapon she has is a broken sword. When a ninth-grade immortal weapon suddenly appeared, she was really unable to react.
She closed her eyes, adjusted her mood, and calmly opened the blood-melting box. There were three books inside. She picked them up and took a look - "The Manual of the Killingless Sword", "The Ghost Record", and "The Buddha's Words".
Tao Zi stared at the "Sword Manual of No Killing" in silence for three seconds, then called Yue Qingya over and asked, "Is your inheritance complete?"
He looked at her in confusion, not knowing why she asked that, but still answered, "There's only the technique, no sword manual. The senior said he gave it to someone else before going to the battlefield to fight the aliens, and then forgot to take it back."
Tao Zi stroked his forehead and stuffed the "Sword Manual of No Killing" directly into his arms: "Here, son of destiny, your sword manual."
She reasonably suspected that the appearance of this blood-melting box was for Yue Qingya.
Yue Qingya took it and looked at it, then looked up at her in shock.
Tao Zi's face was covered in gauze, and her emotions could not be seen. All that could be heard was her slow words: "You are truly a child of destiny."
At this time, Li Xiu rushed over and scolded: "Why are you crawling around with a serious injury? Go back and lie down!"
She looked at him in shock. When did this man become so irritable?
Yue Qingya transmitted a message: "Li Xiu has been scolded a lot recently. You should be able to guess the reason."
Tao Zi was silent for a moment, then turned around and went back obediently.
Li Xiu stood there furiously. Yue Qingya asked gently and concernedly, "Is the Thousand Needle Doctor in a bad mood again?"
He suppressed his temper and nodded, saying "hmm".
When he went in, Tao Zi was sitting on the bed, not sure whether she was in a daze or thinking about something.
Li Xiu took out the human skin mask, handed it to her, and said gloomily, "I'm so unlucky to be on this pirate ship of yours."
Tao Zi took it, knowing that it was her fault, and let him complain for a long time before asking, "How are those mortals?"
"They are being treated, there are no serious problems, and no mortals have died so far."
She nodded and said, "Did anyone notice you?"
Li Xiu straightened his expression and said, "The Spring and Autumn Sect has taken action, claiming the origins of those demon cores to themselves and distancing themselves from us. The Minglan Sect will not know of our existence."
"That's good."
It's easy to figure out that the Chunqiu Sect showed up because of Qiu Xuanhuan, but this is a good thing as the benefits outweigh the disadvantages for both parties.
Thinking about this, she closed her eyes tiredly. Li Xiu suddenly said, "Qiu Xuanhuan and Wang Xu are arguing over there."
"Um?"
"They argued through the Shadow Ball." He paused, then continued, "They say the Sword Sect has a double-edged sword. They claim to be working for the world and the greater good, but when it comes to their own interests, they won't hesitate to force the Ming Lan Sect to do anything, or even go against it."
Li Xiu's eyebrows drooped slightly as he spoke of this. "Qiu Xuanhuan's original words were - what do you mean by 'concerning the overall interests of the world'? It's just that the fire hasn't reached you. No matter how many people die or how many people are wrongly accused, it doesn't matter. Yet, you still wear a mask of concern for the world on your selfish face. The Sword Sect that everyone praises is just like this. It's ridiculous!"
Tao Zi said indifferently: "Is that so? That's good. It will save them from using this excuse again in the future."
He was silent for a moment, then asked, "Tao Zi... Never mind, I can't say anything to you."
She smiled and said, "I know what you want to say, but Yue Qingya and Cheng Zhenjun have already said it."
