C5 Sword and Sword Spirit

When the sun had just risen, Guxing suddenly felt that something was not right. Only now did he realize that there was another person in front of him.

Who!?

Guxing quickly got up and subconsciously wanted to draw his sword, but found that the sword had disappeared.

[Are you looking for it?]

A soft laugh made Guxing turn his head around. He was surprised to find that his sword was quietly lying in front of the person. It was suspended in the air.

Who the hell are you?

Suppressing the shock in his heart, Guxing looked at the man and said coldly.

Little guy, you forgot about your sister so quickly, and your temper is still so bad.

The person who came seemed to be very dissatisfied with Guxing not recognizing her. She pouted and said angrily: [Seriously, I just gave her a name yesterday, okay?]

Guxing was stunned and asked uncertainly, [Could it be that you are Cann Yue?]

Hearing this, the man immediately became angry. [What Cann Yue? It's so unpleasant to hear. Let's get rid of the word 'incomplete'. You can call me Ms Yue from now on. Do you understand?]

Guxing replied faintly. Not interested!

Only then did he have time to take a look at the person's appearance, only to see that the person was dressed in white. He was like a blooming snow lotus that was filled with the essence of heaven and earth. It emitted waves of clear intent, indicating that he was around sixteen or seventeen years old. Its skin was as fair as snow, and it was sparkling and translucent. His long hair hung down his shoulders, and he held it gently with a strand of snow. She looked extraordinarily elegant, and her face was extremely beautiful. In particular, her bright eyes were clear and clear, like the autumn water that tugged at one's heart. When she smiled, she even curved into the shape of a crescent moon. She was indescribably cute and mischievous. They were truly beautiful to the extreme. It made one involuntarily feel ashamed of their own inferiority.

Guxing was slightly stunned when he saw it. He hurriedly turned his head and pretended to ask naturally. Then you came out from the sword?

The young girl did not seem to notice his strange behavior. When she heard this, she immediately giggled. Her laughter was as clear and melodious as silver bells, making people want to hear it.

I am a sword spirit. If I don't come out of the sword, then where do I come out from?

The girl said with a smile. As she looked around, she had an elegant temperament that couldn't be blasphemed.

Guxing retracted his gaze. He asked curiously, What is a sword spirit?

The girl said: "[Sword spirit, as the name implies, is the spirit of the sword. It is born because of the sword, and it cries for the sword. ]

Are you a human or a demon? Guxing asked again.

I am neither a human nor a demon. I am a Spiritual Body born from the heaven and earth. I am formed from essence energy, not in the five elements.

The girl bent down and said patiently, A sword had been baptized by the passage of time. It had accidentally seized the natural luck of the heaven and earth and gained sentience. This sentience was the sword spirit. Of course, this was relative to a sword. Correspondingly, there were also blade spirits, axe spirits, and so on and so forth. The system was known as artifact spirits.

Guxing was slightly relieved when he heard this. He had heard his grandfather talk about some strange and strange things since he was young. It seemed like there were many strange creatures in this world, and not all of them were fictional.

With this thought, he raised his head and discovered that although this young girl in front of him was indescribably beautiful, she was no different from an ordinary person.

With her exquisite mind, the girl naturally knew what he was curious about. She could not help but smile. Idiot, you can't see it just by looking at it. Touch it.

Then, she reached out a small hand that looked like a piece of jade.

Guxing hesitated for a moment and tried to grab it. He found that it went through the middle and missed.

See, I'm a Spiritual Body. If you can't catch me, I can't catch you either.

The young girl pouted. Her playful tone carried a sense of loneliness, and her expression was especially pitiful. I can't leave this sword at all. Rather than calling it a sword spirit, it's better to call it a sword slave.

Seeing this, Guxing suddenly had the thought of protecting this young girl in front of him. But suddenly, as if he had thought of something, his eyes were burning with eagerness. This sword was left for me by my parents. Since you are a sword spirit. . . Then you must know where they are, right?

The girl was stunned, clearly not expecting him to ask such a question. She immediately panicked: This. . . I. . . ]

Tell me, where did they go? Why didn't you want me anymore? Did they run into some kind of danger. . . ]

Whenever he mentioned his parents, Guxing would always worry about their safety first, and only then would he realize that he had been abandoned. This was probably the common problem of a child.

Xiao Yue, on the other hand, was overwhelmed by Guxing's series of questions. She hurriedly shouted, Stop!

Her voice was not loud, but it seemed to be able to hit one's mind. Only then did Guxing calm down and said apologetically, Sorry, I was too impatient.

Xiao Yue turned her head and looked at Guxing with a troubled expression. I also want to help you, but I really can't remember. My memory seems to have been sealed.

[I see, then forget it. ]

When Guxing heard that, he instantly lost his spirit. He covered his eyes with his long hair and leaned against the wall in a dispirited manner. I was abandoned by them since I was born. I was saved when I was about to die. The one who saved me lost his life, and I spent ten years in the hate of others. Yesterday, the only grandfather who was willing to treat me well was also killed. They caused me so much suffering. . . It's meaningless to see or not.

Xiao Yue never thought that the youth in front of her would have such a miserable background. She immediately advised him on the side with some pity, They are your parents after all, and you are their flesh and blood. This was an indisputable fact. Under such circumstances, they must have their own difficulties. Otherwise, they would not have ignored their own flesh and blood. No matter what, It's still good to be able to meet.

Then why didn't they come to me?

Guxing was like a beast that had been provoked. He exploded on the spot. It had been ten years! No matter what difficulties he faced, he wouldn't be able to solve them in ten years!

How do you know they haven't looked for you? Or rather, they feel that leaving you behind is the safest option. At least you're still alive. ] Xiao Yue's voice had completely sunk, but it reminded Guxing of something.

[That's right, at least I'm still alive. . . ] Then he muttered in a low voice, and tears appeared in his eyes.

Xiao Yue couldn't bear it anymore. She looked at the sad person in front of her and said softly: [If you want to cry, cry loudly. It will be better. ]

Guxing's stubbornness exceeded her expectations. She saw him bite his lips until they turned white, and he forcefully wiped his tears back.

I swore in front of Grandpa's grave that I won't cry anymore. He looked at Xiaoyue and shook his head with a bitter smile. His lips had turned red because he had used too much strength earlier, and he didn't care at all.

You don't have to torture yourself like this.

Xiao Yue stretched out her hand to wipe the blood off the corner of Guxing's mouth. She remembered that she was just a Spiritual Body. She then put it away in embarrassment. In this boundless world, there are many things that are not good. Everything has its own destiny, so why are you so persistent? Although it is negative to get drunk every day, No matter how dirty and dirty everything is, it is still a kind of open-minded attitude. I will laugh at myself. What should I do? [Our predecessors have already taught us enough. The key lies in our own hearts. ] If one's heart is not calm, then everything is not calm. You think you are unfortunate and cannot be tolerated by the world. . . Then where am I going to reason with? You are a complete person after all. I can't even have my own memories. I can only be a sword slave for the rest of my life.

You're not a slave!

Guxing blurted out in a moment of desperation. He was not embarrassed, but his face was firm as he said: [I will definitely help you get rid of your shackles in the future, no matter how difficult it is. ]

Xiao Yue was touched and couldn't help smiling. Getting rid of your shackles is not as simple as you think, but it's enough for me to say that.

Guxing gritted his teeth and said what he had said. How could he not count? However, he was not a person who was good at expressing his feelings. At this moment, he could only silently promise in his heart.

[Actually, it's not like there's no other way. ] Xiao Yue saw that Guxing just kept quiet and thought that he was still sad about her family background, so she immediately bit her lips and said.

Guxing was distracted and was shocked when he heard what she said. What?

[It's to restore my memory. ]

Xiao Yue pursed her lips and said bitterly, [This sword was sealed, so it must have something to do with my memory being sealed. ]

[Seal?] You mean this is a sword that has been sealed?] When Guxing found out that there was still a chance to turn the situation around, he immediately perked up.

Hmm, my memory should only be temporarily sealed. I believe that as long as I break the seal, I will be able to understand the truth. Xiao Yue clasped her hands behind her back and said confidently.

[So that's how it is!]

Only then did Guxing feel relieved and hurriedly asked: Then how is this seal going to be unsealed?

Xiao Yue's face turned bitter. After a while, as if she had thought of something, she suddenly slapped her own forehead. [Right, I remember now!]

Then she turned her head and said in a commanding tone, [Give me your hand!]

Guxing was stunned for a moment, then he stretched out his hand in confusion. Suddenly, a sword light shot over.

It seemed like the sword light was extremely fast. After the sword light, there was a sudden sound of it being unsheathed. Guxing subconsciously looked at his hand and saw a very deep blood line appearing. Strangely, he didn't feel any pain.

The blood gradually dripped onto the sword. At the same time, Xiao Yue quickly formed seals with her hands. Suddenly, Guxing felt a white light flash in front of him. When he opened his eyes again, Xiao Yue had already crossed her arms and stood to the side.

[As expected. ]

Xiao Yue said to herself, then looked at Guxing and said: [How is it?]

[What do you mean?]

Guxing lowered his head and complained, but he was shocked to find that not only had the blood stopped, but the wound was also miraculously healing. After a while, it was restored to its original state, and not even a scar was left.

Don't look anymore. It's just dripping blood to recognize its owner. There's nothing strange about it.

Then, Xiao Yue blinked her eyes and said in a very playful manner, Don't look, just let it drip its blood to recognize its owner, there's nothing strange about it. From now on, you are the true master of this sword, Sword Master.

[Master?] Guxing was stunned again. [In other words, it wasn't before?]

Xiao Yue said. Of course not.

Guxing said, Then why now?

Xiao Yue: [I forgot. ]

Guxing: [. . . ]

[Alright. ] My memory seems to have recovered a little. ]

Xiao Yue seemed to be very happy and immediately said excitedly: I already know that this sword has been sealed by nine seals in total as well as the conditions needed to break the seal.

[In other words, as long as I break the seal according to the conditions, I will be able to obtain the answer I want?]

When it came to serious matters, Guxing suddenly became serious. What conditions?

Seeing this, Xiao Yue tilted her head and said unenthusiastically: [It's to let us find some things, then use these things to break the seal. ]

Things? What is it?] Guxing looked up curiously.

Actually, he wants us to find two spiritual objects.

Xiao Yue seemed to appreciate Guxing's ignorance, which made her interested again. [These two spiritual plants are one flower and one grass, but they are not random flowers and plants. There are restrictions, and each seal is different. ]

[So, this one flower and one grass must not be easy to find?] Guxing turned his head and asked casually.

[Yes!] Xiao Yue answered and quickly lowered her head again, saying with slight worry: [It might be very difficult. ]
