Moonlight and wind

"Whose letter is it?" He quickly leaned over to take a look, and was overjoyed when he saw it. "Is it done?"

Shan Zimo repeatedly observed the dagger in his hand. The dagger was pure white, like jade washed by moonlight. The blade was made of a special material as thin as a cicada's wing, and the blade was engraved with thundercloud patterns, making the blade white and light, soft and tough!

The handle of the dagger is integrated with the blade, wrapped in a layer of fine white leather. Its shape fits the palm tightly when holding it, and it has an extremely comfortable grip. The white leather is also engraved with a special thundercloud pattern, and a night sky sapphire is inlaid at the end of the handle.

The scabbard has a smooth coating on the surface, and a clever lock is designed at the opening to prevent the blade from slipping out. There is also a delicate hanging ring on the back of the scabbard.

"Is this the dagger made from the horn of the Tyrannical Beast?" Shan Boyu also came over to take a look.

"This dagger exudes a sense of delicacy and elegance. Master Zhiye must have been very partial to it!" Although he didn't see the contents of the letter at a glance, he could guess about 70% of the information by looking at the dagger.

"Miss Qu, this is the dagger made for you by Master Zhiye." Shan Zimo closed the dagger in his hand and handed it to Qu Xuanyue who was watching the fun on the side.

Qu Xuanyue was stunned for a moment, then quickly came to her senses, stood up and took the dagger. "How lucky am I to have a weapon made by Master Zhiye himself?"

"Master Zhiye mentioned in the letter that since Miss Qi is the descendant of a disciple of the Luohui Sect and has learned the hidden weapon martial arts of the Luohui Sect, she naturally needs a handy dagger to carry with her! But..." Shan Zimo continued to read the master's letter.

"But the dagger still needs to be identified by its owner!" He sat down with a smile on his face.

"What if this dagger doesn't recognize me?" Xuanyue was a little worried.

"That means Miss Gua has no destiny with this dagger. She will naturally have a better weapon in the future. Miss Gua doesn't need to worry."

"How is the master recognition ceremony performed?" Shan Zimo was very curious. "I know it at a glance. Can you do it?"

"Of course!" He crossed his legs proudly and calculated with his fingers, "Tomorrow is an auspicious day, we can open the altar to identify the owner!"

"I can't tell!" Shan Zimo also sat next to Yiyanhui with his legs crossed, "You can also tell fortunes?" As he said that, he began to pinch his fingers like Yiyanhui.

"What kind of fortune-telling is this!" Yi Yanhui smiled lightly, "Don't mention me, even Li can do it! We have many taboos in Meiyeyou City, so we always have to choose a day without any taboos when we go out. If you use it more often, you will naturally get it!"

Shan Zimo and others returned to their rooms to rest, and there was no conversation all night.

The next day, Shan Boyu, Zi Zhong and Li left the inn early in the morning with a list of items needed for the master recognition ceremony.

Shan Zimo, Qu Xuanyue and Yi Yanhui sat around the table, staring at the dagger in a trance.

"Miss, the hot water is ready. Ling'er will help you take a bath and change clothes!" Zi Ling'er helped Xuanyue up and left the room.

In the time it takes to stick an incense stick, Xuanyue changed into a snow-blue embroidered robe, with her hair in a high bun and a lilac-colored hairpin inserted in it. She looked soft, elegant, and heroic!

At this time, Shan Boyu and his group also brought back the things needed for the master identification ceremony and placed them on the dagger's table.

"Originally we were going to set up an altar and open it, but the conditions here are limited, and external things are not important," he looked at Xuanyue Que kindly, "What's important is Miss Que's fate with the dagger." This comforted Xuanyue Que a lot.

Zi Zhong and Li placed some offerings on the table according to the requirements of the Yi Yi Hui. After everything was ready, everyone else retreated to the corner, leaving Xuan Yue standing in front of the table.

"Miss Qi, please express your loyalty, respect and determination to this dagger!" Yijianhui said seriously.

Qu Xuanyue placed both hands on the dagger and closed his eyes. "I, Qu Xuanyue, will treasure this dagger, punish the wicked and eliminate the evil, and live and die together!"

"Hey!" Yi Kehui quickly stopped Qu Xuanyue, "Miss Qu, there is no need to swear such a vicious oath!"

"But I've already said it..." Xuanyue looked at him for help.

"It's okay, it's okay!" Yi Yanhui cleared his throat, "Next, drip blood to recognize the master!"

He took off the scabbard at a glance, picked up the blade, and the sharp blade gently scratched the palm of Xuanyue's right hand.

Xuanyue immediately clenched his right hand and dripped the blood from his palm onto the blade! Everyone came over and nervously watched the changes in the blade, not daring to breathe!

However, Xuan Yue's blood dripped onto the blade and then slid down the blade onto the table without any reaction at all!

"Master, do you think I still have a chance?" Qu Xuanyue asked with a wry smile.

"Wait a little longer!" He still didn't want to give up after just one glance.

The tense atmosphere in the room was so intense that the air seemed to freeze. The blade still did not react! The blood flowing down was even more dazzling on the white blade!

"How could this happen?" Shan Zimo walked up to him, "Is there something missing?" As he spoke, Shan Zimo took the dagger from Yi-Yi-Hui's hand. Because Yi-Yi-Hui held the hilt, Shan Zimo had to hold the blade with two fingers and took it.

The moment Shan Zimo touched the blade, the thundercloud pattern on the bloody white blade flashed with blue-purple lightning! Shan Zimo's hand suddenly trembled, and he tried to hold it down with his other hand.

At a glance, he quickly grabbed Shan Zimo's hand and pulled up his sleeve. The lightning marks on Shan Zimo's arm left by the previous battle with Tyrant Thunder Beast were also flashing blue-purple lightning!

"Look!" Shan Zimo tried hard to steady the dagger in his hand, "Miss Qu's blood is seeping into the dagger!"

"Good! Good!" He let go of Shan Zimo's arm and clapped his hands as he watched the blood quickly seep into the dagger!

"Who is the master?" Zi Ling'er asked anxiously, "Is it my young lady, or Young Master Shan?"

Xuanyue Que and Shan Zimo simultaneously cast inquiring glances at Yiyanhui. Yiyanhui smiled slightly, sat on the chair, and leaned back, "Of course I recognize your young lady, Miss Que! Do you think this blood can be easily infiltrated? This is because Miss Que has established a connection with the dagger. Miss Que, pick up the dagger and give it a try."

After Shan Zimo heard this, he immediately handed the dagger to Qu Xuanyue. Qu Xuanyue held the dagger in his hand, "This..." Qu Xuanyue's eyes widened, "I seem to feel the breath and power of this dagger!"

He nodded after taking a look at her. "That's right! This dagger has found its owner. Congratulations, Miss Qi, your martial arts skills have been further improved!"

"How can I repay Master Zhiye for such a valuable item?" Xuanyue wiped the blade clean, closed the scabbard, and gently ran his fingers across the thundercloud pattern on the scabbard.

"I think, with Master Zhiye's broad mind and Yingyang's experience, Miss Qu should not be hostile to Xueyingtang in the future!" He looked at her kindly. Qu Xuanyue nodded heavily.

"Wait a minute!" Shan Zimo suddenly interrupted their conversation, "Why did it only recognize its owner after I touched the blade? Could it be related to the lightning marks on my body?"

"You," he would smile crookedly, "are just an introduction, or an opportunity!"

"Okay, as long as you recognize the owner," Shan Zimo gave Xuanyue a worthless silly smile, causing Shan Boyu to roll his eyes.

"By the way, Master," Qu Xuanyue asked after a moment's pause, "Does this dagger have a name?"

"Then let's name it," he squinted his eyes as he looked at the dagger that flashed lightning patterns from time to time, "Lightning Phantom Blade!"
