Chapter Sixty-One: The Legendary Divine Weapon Chooses Its Master

Left with no other choice, Xiao Chong raised his voice and called out loudly, "Clan Chief!"

"I was so happy, I couldn't control myself and lost my composure a bit." After being shouted like that, Xiao Kaixin finally calmed down a little, wiped his nose with his sleeve, and said, "What do you want to say?"

That's disgusting! Didn't you bring any tissues? Why wipe your snot on your sleeve? The behavior of older people is truly unpredictable. Is it menopause? But given the clan leader's age, he should have long since passed that stage.

Xiao Chong pondered for a long time, but in the end he didn't dare to investigate any further. He pointed to the Immortal-Slaying Sword at his waist and said, "From now on, does this Immortal-Slaying Sword belong to me?"

Is there even a question? We'd love to use it, but didn't you see how badly the elder who was just thrown away fared?

Xiao Kaixin rolled his eyes and said, "Of course. I happen to have a sword sheath, which is also an antique. I'll give it to you when we get back. Otherwise, if it's hanging on my waist like this, I might accidentally poop on it."

"Oh, that's quite humorous, though it doesn't seem that funny." But he still had to give the clan chief face, Xiao Chong thought to himself, and thanked the kind old clan chief with a smile.

After deciding on the ownership of the Immortal-Slaying Sword, Xiao Kaixin remembered something else and asked, "When I saw you take the Immortal-Slaying Sword earlier, it didn't seem to go so smoothly at first. But later, I don't know what secret method you used to suppress the sword. Could you tell me why?"

I can't say, I absolutely can't say! If you guys find out my secrets, how am I supposed to have fun in the future?

Xiao Chong started spouting nonsense: "No. All my skills come from the Xiao family. How could there be any secret techniques? I think... could it be the legendary divine weapon recognizing its master? I've heard that ancient divine weapons all have spirits and will choose to follow those of high virtue."

"..." Xiao Kaixin was choked and couldn't say a word for a long time.

The elders were speechless, but inwardly they were cursing, "Is your virtue really that high? And if so, where does it lie? Why can't we see it?"

"Boom!"

The elder, who had been hanging on the wall, finally fell to the ground, dizzy and disoriented, and exclaimed, "Shameless!"

"Huh? Are you trying to ruin the harmonious atmosphere?" Xiao Chong was about to retort when he remembered his identity as a martial arts disciple, so he pretended not to hear.

Okay, we're all in this together, it's not easy, and seeing how badly you fell, I forgive you!

Xiao Chong ignored the elder and continued to fabricate, "Is it because I have cultivated the Mind Master? I am already a second-grade Mind Master, and my ability to communicate with spirits is beyond my reach."

Well, that explanation is barely acceptable. I've seen Xiao Chong's ability to move objects remotely during the hunting competition.

Xiao Kaixin nodded with difficulty, trying to convince herself to accept this reason, which was somewhat plausible.

But he was immediately filled with resentment. If he had known it was so simple, why hadn't he learned the Way of the Mind Master back then? But now that he thought of this, it was too late!

However, at least it was the eldest son of the Xiao family who took the Immortal-Slaying Sword, so the good stuff didn't end up in someone else's hands.

Xiao Kaixin comforted himself again and instructed Xiao Chong, "You almost forgot that you are also a Mind Master. But you must remember one thing: martial arts are the foundation of the Xiao family. Mind Mastery is just a minor path. You must not get too deeply involved. I have never heard of these two cultivation methods being able to advance at the same time."

"This disciple will heed the clan leader's teachings and will never forget our roots." Xiao Chong readily accepted the clan leader's well-intentioned reminder, though he was inwardly quite disapproving.

You can't cultivate together because your foundations are too shallow, lacking a deep foundation. But who am I? I possess a powerful Taoist lineage! With the Taoist secret technique "Forging the Gods" supporting me, what are spiritual power and mental strength? They're utterly useless, utterly weak!

But I won't tell you these things. Of course, if I'm in a good mood one day, I only need to let a tiny bit slip through my fingers, and that'll be enough for you to study for a lifetime.

Filled with a tremendous sense of superiority, Xiao Chong nodded his head like a chick pecking at rice, displaying an indescribable obedience.

Xiao Kaixin was very satisfied with Xiao Chong's obedience.

I've given all the instructions I needed to, and the other person seems to have listened attentively. Shouldn't we go back and order a couple more dishes and brew some more wine to celebrate?

"Alright, it's getting late, I should head back to my residence to have some drinks and take care of some matters. I'll take my leave now, elders."

Carrying the grand dream of the Xiao family's future prosperity, and also a slight regret about missing the Immortal-Slaying Sword, Xiao Kai was so excited that he almost revealed his true thoughts.

Several elders rose to see him off, but when they saw the Immortal-Slaying Sword casually hanging at Xiao Chong's waist, a hint of resentment appeared on their faces.

"Chang Kong, come back with me and pack your things. In a few days, we'll head to the Southern Wilderness with Xiao Chong. As for guarding the Martial Fortune Pavilion's books, I'll send someone else." Before leaving, Xiao Kaixin pulled Yin Chang Kong aside and said.

Yin Changkong agreed and followed Xiao Kaixin out of the armory.

Hey, hey, hey, take me with you! It feels like these elders are harboring deep resentment, almost like they're planning to kill and steal the treasure.

Seeing Xiao Kaixin leave, Xiao Chong shouted in his heart and quickly followed behind Xiao Kaixin, boarding the cloud boat with the two of them.

The cloud boat that Xiao Kaixin rode in was different from the ones used for transporting goods. It was a bit smaller, but it was much more comfortable. It was also much slower than the ones used for cargo transport. The ride inside was very smooth, and you couldn't feel any turbulence during the flight.

In particular, the cloud boat is fully furnished with all kinds of leisure items. Except for the lack of a video system that can play pornographic movies, it is in no way inferior to the RV in my previous life.

Most incredibly, to Xiao Chong's astonishment, Xiao Kaixin pulled out a wine flask from somewhere, looked at the clouds and mist in the mountains, and poured himself a drink.

Happy! Nothing but happy! Xiao Kaixin filled the wine cup on the table, but didn't drink it. Instead, she turned her head and stared at the clouds in a daze.

Is it okay to sneak a sip? There's still plenty left in the pot; you can't finish it all by yourself.

Seeing Xiao Kai's calm and collected demeanor, Xiao Chong was suddenly aroused by the wine craving in his stomach. With a thought, the wine in the cup turned into a stream of wine and slowly flew towards his mouth.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Chong truly possesses astonishing abilities, even managing to retrieve the Immortal-Slaying Sword. Thinking of Xiao Chong's performance today, Xiao Kaixin grew even happier and abruptly turned to look at him.

Snapped!

Xiao Chong panicked and couldn't keep up with his mental energy. A stream of wine fell onto the table, splashing all three of them with wine.
