After listening to the words of the Sword Intent Child, black lines suddenly appeared on Liu Zixuan's forehead.
He just said, how could pies fall from the sky, even if they did fall, how could they just fall into his hands?
Letting the Nameless Sword evolve into the Xuanyuan Sword was correct, but it also meant the trials had arrived.
Calling it a trial is not as accurate as calling it a life and death ordeal.
One must understand, what the Sword Intent Child referred to was not ordinary fighting, but continuous killing!
That represents that if Liu Zixuan wants to achieve something, he will surely experience a true storm of bloodshed.
Along the journey, Liu Zixuan had not had it easy, and he had grown somewhat weary of all the fighting and killing, but he also understood that if he wanted to truly protect those close to him, to protect this land, he must become the person standing at the peak.
So, he faced the wind and continued forward.
Casting the Xuanyuan Sword into the Relic Mini World, Liu Zixuan even took a special look. At the instant the Xuanyuan Sword appeared, the group of ghost lizards he had imprisoned all moved back, fear appearing in their eyes.
No wonder the Gui Xu mermaid he encounters in the labyrinth would worship the Nameless Sword like that, no wonder it dared not mention the name of the sword, it turns out the so-called Nameless Sword was actually the number one ancient sword, earning the title of the Holy Intent Sword, the Xuanyuan Sword!
Now knowing everything about the Xuanyuan Sword, his previous curiosity about this sword resolved altogether.
A sword that easily birthed a Sword Spirit and could grow stronger as Liu Zixuan's Inner Strength increased, perhaps only the ancient could match its name.
Taking a deep breath, Liu Zixuan finished his tea and walked towards the outside.
As he descended the stairs past the fifth floor, laughter filled the room behind him, and the wooden tables, chairs, and even walls instantly turned to powder!
More peculiarly, only the fifth-floor room disappeared without affecting the floors below, as if the fifth floor had never existed!
Returning to the fourth floor, Luo Xi happened to step out.
With a hint of excitement, she approached Liu Zixuan, quietly laughing: "Guess what I got!"
"Surely a treasure."
"Nonsense, would I be so excited if it wasn't a treasure!" Luo Xi said resentfully with a pout.
Liu Zixuan rubbed his chin: "I remember you previously used a weapon that was somewhat like a whip but more like the brocade used during array setups by Yafei and others. Could it be related to this?"
Luo Xi smiled mysteriously, opening her palm towards Liu Zixuan to reveal a piece of red cloth no larger than a hand.
He frowned: "Is this a handkerchief?"
"You seriously underestimate ancient objects!" Luo Xi laughed proudly: "This item is called Hundred Feet of Brocade, a treasure left by someone similar to the Fairy Bai Lin we encountered before. Once you learn its cultivation technique, you can use Inner Strength to extend this brocade up to a hundred feet long. I just flipped through the cultivation technique book briefly, and it mentions that fully extending the Hundred Feet of Brocade is as formidable as a regular array."
"It's indeed a weapon fitting for girls." Liu Zixuan squinted with a smile: "I wonder what others have obtained!"
"Surely everyone will acquire some gains." Luo Xi stored away the Hundred Feet of Brocade and linked arms with Liu Zixuan: "What treasure did you get?"
"That's a secret for now!" Liu Zixuan smiled mysteriously: "Alright, let's go out and wait for Qiqi!"
"Hmph!" Luo Xi glared at Liu Zixuan, then followed him down the stairs.
Originally, he thought it might take a long time to find Qiqi, but unexpectedly, as soon as they reached the second floor, they saw her.
But at this moment, Qiqi seemed unhappy.
She appeared greatly aggrieved, curled up in the corner of the stairs, holding her knees and sobbing.
Liu Zixuan and Luo Xi exchanged a glance, quickly walked over, and crouched down, asking: "Qiqi, what's wrong? Did someone bully you?"
"Brother, will you disdain me?" Qiqi looked up, tears in her eyes, and asked.
Liu Zixuan was taken aback: "Why would I disdain you when you're so adorable!"
"Do you remember what I told you before about myself?" Qiqi asked.
Liu Zixuan scratched his head, recalling that Qiqi once told Liu Zixuan about family matters and about her.
"I told you before, the clan elders predicted I am an ominous person." Qiqi spoke up.
Liu Zixuan grinned and picked Qiqi up, gently patting her back while smiling: "That's all nonsense!"
"No, when I entered that room just now, it was confirmed. It turns out I really am ominous, and I will bring you many disasters." Qiqi pushed Liu Zixuan away, moving back a few steps: "Brother, I really don't want to be that kind of person!"
Liu Zixuan shrugged: "I don't know exactly what you've gone through, or perhaps you're still entangled in past issues, but Qiqi, from the beginning, I've treated you as my sister, my real sister, so no matter what happens, even if you really bring disaster upon me, I'm your brother, and I'm not afraid of any difficulties."
"No, it's not like that!" Qiqi shook her head vigorously, her little teeth biting hard on her lip, almost bleeding.
Liu Zixuan's eyes narrowed, a sudden unease creeping in his heart, but just in that moment of hesitation, Qiqi suddenly ran downstairs.
As she ran, she shouted: "I'm sorry, brother, I can't stay with you. I really don't want to be ominous and truly don't want to bring disaster upon you!"
Liu Zixuan panicked, genuinely panicked.
Though he was initially shocked and unprepared when Qiqi suddenly appeared as a sister, they had gotten along well over time, and Qiqi had genuinely treated Liu Zixuan well from the heart, and Liu Zixuan also deeply cared for this little girl.
Setting aside family matters and past encounters, just based on their interaction over these days, Liu Zixuan already considered Qiqi his sister.
Now, seeing Qiqi's actions, he was truly worried that this little girl might do something unwise.
Seeing Qiqi running downstairs, Liu Zixuan and Luo Xi hesitated not a moment and hurriedly pursued after her.
But upon exiting the pavilion, they found that Qiqi had already disappeared.
Liu Zixuan frowned and secretly activated the Power of the Dragon Veins, as he had left a Dragon Vein imprint on Qiqi's arm, capable of sensing in short distances.
Yet at this moment, that trace of Dragon Vein power was completely undetectable, as if Qiqi had vanished from the world!
"Should we split up to search?" Luo Xi, understanding Liu Zixuan's feelings for Qiqi, asked with furrowed brows.
Liu Zixuan nodded: "You go to…"
"Bang!"
Just as he began to speak, before finishing his sentence, the entire pavilion suddenly collapsed, and amidst the countless dust, two figures abruptly appeared, wielding blinding weapons, directly attacking Liu Zixuan and Luo Xi…
