Before Shen Zhaozhao could react to what this new situation was, a faint purple halo, slightly ethereal yet exceptionally clear, emanated from the hilt of the sword and quickly coalesced in front of her.
As the light faded, a silhouette of a young man, about half an arm's length tall, with a handsome and refined face, and even a touch of coldness, floated in mid-air, arms crossed.
Its features were delicate, with slightly upturned phoenix eyes that should have been alluring, but its gaze was cold and indifferent as it glanced at Shen Zhaozhao below.
Shen Zhaozhao's pupils dilated.
No, really?
He awakened just like that?!
The aloof little sword spirit raised its captivating phoenix eyes, its voice slightly hoarse, yet it tried its best to project an arrogant tone: "You are the master who formed a blood pact with me?"
Shen Zhaozhao: "Is that so?"
"In other words," the little sword spirit said, slowing her tone as if she had confirmed something crucial, "no matter what kind of person I am, once you've formed a blood pact with me, you can't go back on your word, right?"
Shen Zhaozhao's heart skipped a beat. What the heck?!
What do you want to do?!
As expected.
The next second, the little sword spirit, who had just maintained a cool and aloof persona, didn't even make a symbolic struggle. With a "plop," its entire spirit body fell directly from mid-air, lay down on the ground, and began to roll around.
"Wow—!!! I don't care! Master, you have to take responsibility for me!"
The handsome sword spirit wailed without any semblance of decorum, "My wife is missing! I can't sense her anymore! Help me find her, or I won't live anymore! I'll become withdrawn, I'll crack open, and I'll make sure you, a sword cultivator, have no sword left to use!!!"
Shen Zhaozhao: "..."
Shen Zhaozhao: "…………"
凸(艹皿艹)？！？！
Shen Zhaozhao felt that she might have really hurt some love-obsessed people to death in her past life, otherwise, how come she was surrounded by a bunch of love-obsessed people in this life?!
First, Xie Linyuan was making a huge fuss about his "stand-in literature" script, and now his own natal spirit sword, which just awakened, is rolling around on the ground looking for a wife?!
Has she gotten herself into a love-struck state?!
Shen Zhaozhao stared coldly at the pale purple phantom on the ground, writhing and utterly unseemly. She felt her temples throbbing and wished she could immediately reforge the broken sword.
"Get up." Shen Zhaozhao's voice was filled with suppressed anger.
"No! I won't get up until I find a wife!"
Zi Xiao cried even louder, and her spirit even began to flicker, as if it were about to disappear on the spot.
"..."
Taking a deep breath, Shen Zhaozhao told herself to stay calm. This was her natal spirit sword; if she damaged it, she would be the one to suffer.
She pressed her throbbing temples and gritted her teeth as she asked, "Didn't you just awaken? Where did you get a wife from?"
The sword spirit, who was rolling on the ground, paused, raised his handsome face, which was covered in tears, and retorted with a righteous indignation.
"Who said I just awakened! I awakened last night! But before I even figured out what was going on, my wife slapped me across the face!"
As it spoke, it even touched its face with a hint of reminiscence: "Master, let me tell you, my wife's hands are so fragrant and soft... hehe..."
Shen Zhaozhao: "..."
You're insane!
Her sword spirit is a lunatic!
etc……
Shen Zhaozhao was suddenly stunned.
Last night, she had just successfully formed a bond with Zixiao when that lunatic Xie Linyuan appeared silently behind her.
Without thinking, she grabbed the newly formed blood pact with Zixiao and swung it at him...
At that time, the lotus-patterned jade pendant hanging on Xie Linyuan's waist... did indeed show a momentary fluctuation of spiritual energy the instant she swung her sword?
And combining that with what the Mad Sword Spirit said...
Shen Zhaozhao looked utterly desperate, so the "fragrant and soft" "wife" that Zixiao mentioned who "slapped her across the face" was very likely...
Damn it!
at the same time.
Yuntai Fairy City.
As one of the largest immortal markets in Lingzhou, Yuntai Immortal Market is shrouded in misty spiritual fog and soft precious light all year round.
The excitement of the pre-auction has subsided, and the real highlight is taking place inside the towering, cloud-piercing Nine Heavens Glazed Pagoda in the center of the Immortal City.
Unlike the warm-up where all the monks gather together and the bidders are clearly visible, the rules of the formal auction are completely different.
The Nine Heavens Glazed Pagoda has its own space, divided into nine levels, each level further divided into countless elegant cubicles, exclusively for the use of various sects and forces.
Each elegant room has a specially made beaded curtain hanging in front of it, shimmering with light, forming a natural barrier that can completely block out external divine sense probing and prying eyes.
Beyond each beaded curtain, a delicate lotus lamp floats.
This is the rule set by the Yuntai Alliance for this auction—if you fancy a treasure, an envoy from the Yuntai Alliance will light the lotus lanterns in front of the elegant pavilion for you and announce your price on your behalf.
If one lacks the financial resources to continue the struggle, the lotus lantern will extinguish itself with a mere thought.
Here, the sect's prestige and human relationships are all shut out behind the beaded curtain; the only one who can speak is the spirit stone.
This is why, occasionally, there are stories of small sects using all their resources to overwhelm large sects with spirit stones and ultimately win their desired treasures—unexpected tales that have been talked about for a long time to come.
In the original book, Gu Xuanchen relied on the fact that the Tianyan Sect occupied two of the few top-grade mines in Lingzhou, and the lotus lanterns in front of his elegant pavilion were almost never extinguished.
