Chapter 71 The Best Sword of Legalism (Bonus Chapter, Please Read On)

Seeing Han Fei's appearance, Bai Yuan and the others were somewhat puzzled.

"Why do you have such a long face if nothing's wrong?"

Han Fei sighed and put down the wooden box on his back.

"You'll know once you see it!"

He placed the wooden box on the ground and then opened it to show them.

There was indeed a sword inside the wooden box, but it was a broken and shattered sword, and it could only be vaguely discerned that it was indeed the Reverse Scale Sword.

Ji Mo Huaxue and Ningyan now understood why Han Fei had that expression.

When the sword was in the hands of the Reverse Scale Sword Spirit, they saw that the sword was still intact, but who knew that the blade was actually broken.

The difference is indeed quite significant.

Bai Yuan hid to the side and chuckled when he saw it, which reminded him of the difference between a buyer's show and a seller's show.

Looking at Bai Yuan's appearance, Han Fei suddenly had a guess.

"Uncle-Master, did you already know that the Reverse Scale Sword was broken?"

"No, I didn't, don't talk nonsense!"

Bai Yuan immediately retorted, how could he admit to such a thing?

"This is the first time I've ever seen the real Reverse Scale Sword. How could I possibly know beforehand that the Reverse Scale Sword was already broken?"

Han Fei thought about it and realized that the logic was indeed sound.

The Reverse Scale Sword has been here for who knows how long, and it's unclear when it shattered. How could Bai Yuan possibly have known all this beforehand?

Bai Yuan smiled and shook his head: "Although this sword is broken, it still has a sword spirit, so it won't affect its power. Besides, you don't know martial arts, so it would be useless for you to wield the sword yourself. Looking at it this way, this sword is really a perfect match for you."

Han Fei scratched his head, agreeing with what he said.

Even if the sword were intact, he wouldn't know swordsmanship and wouldn't be able to unleash its power, so the battle would ultimately have to rely on the sword spirit itself.

Bai Yuan smiled and then began to examine the sword more closely.

[Observe the sword's reverse scale, sword appraisal experience +1, obtain 300 fragments]

[Name]: Reverse Scale Sword

[Existing entries]: Legalist Sword Spirit (Purple), Spying Time (Purple), The Best Sword of the Legalist School (Purple)

[Legalist Sword Spirit]: A powerful, immortal sword spirit resides within the sword. It is not only highly skilled in martial arts but also erudite, proficient in the laws of the seven kingdoms. It is both a teacher and a friend, a sword that can pierce the sword's back. However, its existence also brings a great burden to the sword master.

【Peeping into Time】: This is a longsword that understands the laws of heaven and earth. Its owner can use it to glimpse the river of time, but the price is often very high.

[The Best Sword of the Legalists]: Legend has it that this is the best sword of the Legalists, containing the profound principles of Legalism. The blade is extremely sharp, but its only drawback is that it is relatively easy to break.

After seeing the information about the sword, Bai Yuan's expression became somewhat strange.

It dares to call itself the best sword; no wonder it shattered like this.

Putting that aside, the other two terms surprised him somewhat, especially the term "time of spying".

It is known that fate is unpredictable and fickle, yet it can still offer a glimpse into the long river of time, even at a great cost, its effect remains powerful.

No wonder it attracted divine punishment just now; the existence of this sword is already defying the heavens.

Having learned about the sword, Bai

Yuan's smile faded, and he said to Han Fei very seriously, "This sword can be described as a heaven-defying sword. Unless absolutely necessary, do not use it casually, and even more so, do not use it to explore forbidden areas!"

Upon hearing this, Han Fei was slightly taken aback, and he stared at Bai Yuan with wide eyes.

He understood that Bai Yuan must already know about the power of the Reverse Scale and the price to pay for using it, otherwise he wouldn't have given him such instructions.

Han Fei closed the box and nodded solemnly.

He knew that the world was fair, and such powerful strength was not free to use; the Reverse Scale Sword had not come to him for no reason.

Every gift bestowed by fate has already had a price tag attached in secret.

Ji Mo Hua Xue and Ning Yan saw that the two were talking in hushed tones and didn't ask any questions. They knew very well that this sword had nothing to do with them.

They followed us simply to satisfy their curiosity.

Having obtained the Reverse Scale Sword, they didn't linger there and went straight back.

The fact that Han Fei brought back a wooden box did not attract the attention of others. After all, the wooden box looked like an ordinary box that could be seen anywhere else, without any decorations. It would not attract any interest at first glance.

After spending another night in Jimo City, Bai Yuan and the others prepared to embark on their journey home the following morning.

Outside the mansion, Ji Moxi personally came to see Bai Yuan and the others off, while his wife was giving instructions to Ji Mohuaxue.

"Alright, it's getting late, you should set off too! You can come back and visit again if you have time!"

Ji Moxi looked at Bai Yuan and the others, and patted Bai Yuan on the shoulder.

"Take care, Uncle!"

"Well, let's go!"

Bai Yuan and the others boarded the carriage. Ji Mo Huaxue sat by the carriage window, looking at Ji Mo Xi and the others with some reluctance in her eyes.

The carriage moved slowly forward, and eventually, Ji Moxi and the others disappeared completely.

Ji Mo Huaxue lowered the carriage curtain and did not look at the scenery outside.

Seeing that she was in low spirits, Bai Yuan patted Xue'er in his arms, sending it over to comfort Ji Mo Hua Xue.

Xue'er gave him a human-like glare, then walked over with cat-like steps.

There's nothing I can do; he's the owner, after all!

Life is tough, even a cat sighs!

It walked up to Ji Mo Hua Xue, stretched, and showed off its soft and beautiful body. Then it nuzzled against Ji Mo Hua Xue's arm and winked its big eyes at her.

"Meow~"

Xue'er's voice seemed to have the power to heal hearts, and seeing its adorable appearance, Ji Mo Hua Xue couldn't help but smile.

She reached out and gently touched Xue'er, her mood having improved considerably.

"thank you!"

Ji Mo Hua Xue picked up Xue'er and gently scratched its chin as a way of expressing her gratitude.

Xue'er also let out a satisfied snoring sound.

The journey was not far, and they arrived at Xiaoshengxianzhuang before the sun had even set.

When they returned, no one greeted them, so they went back to their respective lodgings.

As soon as he put down his luggage, Bai Yuan prepared to go find Lu Zhonglian to explain the matter of Ji Mo Hua Xue.

At this moment, Li Si suddenly came over. He saw Ji Mo Huaxue as soon as he arrived, and was slightly taken aback, but did not think much about it. Instead, he turned his gaze to Bai Yuan.

"Uncle-Master! You've finally returned!"

"Li Si? You want to see me?"

Bai Yuan was somewhat puzzled; it seemed that he had something urgent to say.

"Here's the thing, the sect leader asked me to inform you that a Taoist disciple came looking for you two days ago, apparently about something very important. However, you were attending a banquet at the time, so he should be waiting for you at the Linglong Pavilion in the city now."

Upon hearing this, Bai Yuan immediately nodded: "I understand, I'll be right there."

Linglongxuan was a Taoist stronghold in Sanghai, but it was a very small and ordinary inn. He hadn't been there much since he came to Sanghai.

Although he didn't know who it was, he could roughly guess why.

I suppose my senior brother already knows about the effects of the Qi-Nourishing Pill, and he must have sent someone to discuss this matter with him.

(Read on)

Upon receiving the news, Bai Yuan immediately brought Ji Mo Hua Xue and Ning Yan to Linglong Pavilion.

They saw a sign hanging in front of the inn, indicating that it had closed down.

The shopkeeper didn't even look up when he saw someone come in.

"I'm sorry, sir, our inn is currently full. If you need accommodation, turn left after leaving the inn and cross two streets; you'll find another inn there."

He spoke so fluently, as if he had rehearsed it thousands of times beforehand.

Clearly, he must have said the same thing to quite a few people these past few days.

Bai Yuan chuckled lightly: "I'm not here to stay, I'm here to find someone."

"Find someone?"

Only then did the shopkeeper raise his head and look at them. Upon seeing Bai Yuan, he immediately recognized him.

"Lord Bai Yuan! You've returned?"

The shopkeeper was immediately pleasantly surprised.

"Please wait a moment, my lord. Lord Xiaoling and the others are upstairs right now. I will go and inform him immediately."

After saying that, he immediately ran off to deliver the message.

Clearly, he knew who Bai Yuan was referring to when he said he was looking for someone.

Bai Yuan was somewhat surprised to hear what he had just said; he hadn't expected that his senior brother would send Xiao Ling instead.

On Mount Taiyi, Bai Yuan and Xiao Ling didn't interact much, but Bai Yuan had a good impression of her.

Xiao Ling is the kind of disciple who is both talented and hardworking, and she is focused on cultivation and doesn't care much about other things.

He was deeply trusted and valued by Chishongzi, so sending him here now was both unexpected and reasonable.

Not long after, Xiao Ling hurriedly ran down with two Taoist disciples.

"Uncle Master!"
