Chapter 124 - A Nice Sword
The black item fell into Jiang Aijian’s hands. It looked nothing like a sword. It was more like a small parcel.
However, Jiang Aijian’s eyes widened in surprise as he exclaimed excitedly, “An imperial token?”
“That’s right. The nice sword I’m giving you is this imperial token,” Lu Zhou said calmly.
‘The imperial token is a nice sword?’ The others were baffled by this.
Jiang Aijian scratched his head and said, “If you give this to someone in the palace, it’ll be extremely useful to you. Old senior, isn’t it a waste for you to give it to me? I’m a craven man, I don’t have the courage to order people around.”
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and said, “This item is, indeed, an imperial token. However, it’s also the key to the imperial warehouse. Otherwise, why do you think the Imperial Family searches for it far and wide?”
Jiang Aijian was surprised by Lu Zhou’s words. He was not the only one. None of the others knew there would be another use for the imperial token.
Hua Wudao, who was a cultivation maniac, was immediately invigorated when he heard this. He cupped his fists and said, “Please guide me, Pavilion Master.”
“How many leaves does your avatar have?”
“I’ve made no progress over the past 20 years. It’s still at the Six-leaf stage.”
Mingshi Yin and Duanmu Sheng were shocked. It was no wonder they were incapable of breaching Hua Wudao’s defenses even after taking turns to attack him. Against an expert of such a rank, even if he did not use his Six Compatible Seal and merely used his protective energy, they would not have been able to break his defenses.
“There are tomes about the Six Compatible Seal and Six-leaf avatars here. You may peruse them at your leisure, Elder Hua.” Lu Zhou stroked his beard.
Hua Wudao beamed. He said respectfully, “Thank you, Pavilion Master.” The general public was of the opinion that the Evil Sky Pavilion hoarded many treasures, tomes, and weapons. Every cultivator dreamed about gaining access to these things. When the barrier was broken back then, the Righteous Sect and Clarity Sect had been searching the mountain for these treasures. How could he not feel excited being given access to these things?
The great hall was quiet again.
A Derived Moon Palace’s female cultivator walked over slowly, curtsied, and said, “Pavilion Master, the palace master…”
“There are no palace masters here!” Duanmu Sheng rebuked the female cultivator immediately.
These female cultivators had regarded Ye Tianxin as their leader ever since they joined the Evil Sky Pavilion, and Duanmu Sheng had wanted to teach them a lesson since a long time ago.
The female cultivator was shocked. She nodded and said, “Y-ye Tianxin requests an audience.”
“What’s the matter?” Lu Zhou asked coldly.
“Ye Tianxin is unconscious. I’m afraid… I’m afraid that she won’t make it!”
