Ming Shu looked at the wound that was on her hand.

  This stupid sword recognized her as the owner?

  The black sword was shaking furiously. It wanted to shake Ming Shu’s blood out.

  After shaking for some time, it suddenly slammed itself on the ground.

  It was in despair.

  The people in the courtyard looked at them in shock.

  The black sword suddenly stood up and slowly turned red. Then, the patterns on the sword started changing too.

  Ming Shu: “.……”

  The black sword had changed itself into the Yi Xie sword.

  Even the aura was the same!

  “The Yi Xie sword……” Senior Brother Ling muttered.

  Everyone was furious when they heard what Senior Brother Ling said. “Devil girl, how dare you lie to us!”


  They almost believed her!

  Ming Shu: “.……”


  “Give us back our junior sister!”


  “Devil girl, I will kill you today!”


  The disciples of Wuji Sword Sect ignored Senior Brother Ling’s obstruction and rushed toward Ming Shu.

  Ming Shu twitched her mouth corners. She grabbed the fake Yi Xie sword and blocked their attacks.

  Very good!

  Not only was the aura the same, but the abilities were also the same too……

  Ming Shu leaned against the replica and panted. She took out a fruit from her pocket and bit it. As the sweet juice filled her mouth, her mood got slightly better.

  The disciples from the Wuji Sword Sect were all lying on the ground, including their Senior Brother Ling.

  Ming Shu was so angry she slammed the replica on the ground.

  Ming Shu slammed the door and left.

  When she left, the replica stood up too and went over to the spiritual pool.

  The spiritual pool dried up in the blink of an eye. The rich reiki in the courtyard disappeared too.

  The black shadows were still outside.

  The moment Ming Shu walked out, the black shadows gathered around her. The screams in the air didn’t affect them at all. What a weird species.

  “Urgh, urgh……”

  Ming Shu forced a hideous smile. “Get away from here.”


  “Urgh, urgh……”

  The black shadows called out and rolled away.

  Ming Shu walked to the room that she was staying in. The python was still there.

  The replica clanged behind her. The noise irritated her.

  Ming Shu went into her room and locked the sword outside. The sword knocked on the door.

  Ming Shu didn’t open the door. The sword broke through the window and lay straight on the floor lazily.

  “This……” The child who was barbecuing the python meat got a shock.

  Ming Shu ignored the child. She chewed her meat and fixed her gaze on the replica.

  If it could last for a long time, she could use it to gain some Hatred Points from the people in the country.

  The black sword seemed to realize what Ming Shu was planning and changed back into its original form.

  Ming Shu: “.……”

  After finishing her supper, Ming Shu asked the child, who was shivering in fear, to leave. She then picked up the black sword lying lazily on the ground.

  The black sword was very heavy. It was heavier than the Yi Xie sword that it replicated.

  Ming Shu admired how well it replicated the Yi Xie sword.

  The problem was, how did it know how heavy the Yi Xie sword was?

  The black sword didn’t move.

  Ming Shu examined the sword carefully. On the hilt, there was the dragon carving as well as two words:

  Ming Shu thought about it carefully. Host might have seen or heard this name before but she couldn’t recall anything……

  The moment dawn arrived, the disciples from the Wuji Sword Sect started looking for their friends.

  After she left yesterday night, the black shadows observed for a while before slipping into the courtyard. They pulled a few people away.

  They found a disciple, but he just lost some of his cultivation. Other than that, he was fine.

  These things sucked cultivation.

  Fang Wan was found too. However, she just looked really haggard. Her cultivation didn’t get sucked at all.

  Fang Wan wondered how she would explain the appearance of the Yi Xie sword to them.

  However, she realized that they never asked her about it. They just told her how much they hated July because she lied to them.

  Fang Wan figured out what happened after a while.

  She heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, she was worried. Why did she have the Yi Xie sword too?

  Yesterday night, the Yi Xie sword lost a lot of its power. Her talismans prevented the black shadows from sucking her energy away.

  “Fang Wan, have some water.”


  Su Yiqiu passed her some water.

  Fang Wan examined Su Yiqiu’s expression. She seemed normal. Fang Wan took the water and asked with concern, “Thank you, but are you okay?”


  It was really messy yesterday night and the lighting was dim too. She felt that Su Yiqiu didn’t see who pushed her.

  However, she was really lucky.

  After she experienced all those things, she was still fine.

  “I am fine.” Su Yiqiu wanted to ask Fang Wan why she pushed her, but she didn’t have any evidence. She decided not to say anything in the end.

  “Senior brother.” Fang Wan stood up and walked toward the person who came in. “Have you found the others?”


  Su Yiqiu lowered her head and went to take care of the injured people.

  “We found all of them,” Senior Brother Ling said indifferently.

  The two disciples that came in first were in the worst state. Their cultivation was completely lost. They could only be normal people now.

  The man was still tied up. He said sarcastically, “I told you all that you shouldn’t go out at night.”


  “What are those things?” Someone grabbed the man’s clothes.

  The man groaned. “How would I know? It is just not something good.”


  Senior Brother Ling went up. “The sword in the pool was always there?”


  The man replied, “Why would I lie to you? The demons here know it too.”


  Senior Brother Ling frowned.

  The pool had dried up and the sword was gone.

  They saw Ming Shu fighting against it personally. It turned into the Yi Xie sword after a while……

  Senior Brother Ling glanced at Fang Wan.

  The man noticed that something was wrong. “What happened? Did something happen to the sword?”


  “The sword is gone. The spiritual pool has dried up too,” someone answered him.

  “Dried up?” The man’s tone rose in pitch. “What did you all do?”


  “It must be the devil girl. This was all planned by her.”


  Senior Brother Ling kept a clear mind and knew that she had nothing to do with all this. She fell down with them. However, what she did with the black shadows yesterday……

  And the sword. Did she swipe the sword in the pool?

  Any weapon would become stronger after they got submerged in the pool.

  This was the only explanation that he could find.

  “What devil girl? Didn’t I tell you all that everything here is supported by the spiritual pool? You bunch of lunatics!” The man was extremely agitated.
