Hiss!
Just as Zhang Xiaohao’s fist was about to hit the little runt, the little runt fell asleep.
Zhang Xiaohao hit the brakes hard and had to stop.
"Dead dog! You ate so much of my stuff and now you’re pretending to be dead?" Zhang Xiaohao grumbled.
He kicked the little runt twice with his foot.
The little runt didn’t react at all and started snoring.
"Dammit, I’ll stuff you to death!" Zhang Xiaohao said irritably.
Grabbing the little runt, he walked toward the room.
He casually tossed the little runt onto the sofa and Zhang Xiaohao stopped paying attention to it.
Sitting on the bed,
he put the few remaining elixirs into the Shennong Ring and also stored away the golden Inheritance Bead.
"Phew! The ten-thousand-year-old Spiritual dicine and these several dozen thousand-year-old Spiritual dicine plants, luckily they were not gulped down by that damn dog. Otherwise, I would have definitely boiled you," Zhang Xiaohao said.
With a flip of his palm, he put half of the ten-thousand-year-old Spiritual dicine and more than thirty thousand-year-old Spiritual dicine plants into the Shennong Ring.
Picking up the Dragon Slayer Blade, he started fiddling with it.
After so thought,
he took out his specially made cell phone, unlocked three passwords, and called Master Old Ghost with a video chat.
After ringing for quite a while, the call was finally answered.
"Can’t you have a little respect for the elderly and the young? It’s late at night, you don’t sleep and you don’t let others sleep either?" Master Old Ghost’s voice, rolling his eyes, ca through the video.
"Master, take a look at what this is," Zhang Xiaohao said with a mischievous grin.
He showed the Dragon Slayer Blade in front of the cara.
"A broken blade, and you have the nerve to show it off? And you have the nerve to disturb my sleep with that?" Master Old Ghost said.
"Master, take a closer look!" Zhang Xiaohao urged again.
"Hmm!" Master Old Ghost narrowed his eyes and scrutinized it closely.
"You little rascal, show the handle of the blade," Master Old Ghost’s solemn voice ca from the video.
"Okay," Zhang Xiaohao replied.
He revealed the handle of the Dragon Slayer Blade.
"Ah! It actually is the legendary Dragon Slayer Blade!" Master Old Ghost exclaid.
His originally sleepy eyes instantly opened wide in an oval shape, staring in disbelief at the Dragon Slayer Blade in Zhang Xiaohao’s hands.
"Spill it! You little rascal, where did you get this Dragon Slayer Blade?" Master Old Ghost pressed.
"I seem to recall soone just saying that I was disturbing his sleep, right?" Zhang Xiaohao said with a teasing tone.
"Hmph! You’ve been itching for a beating for three days, haven’t you? Want to find so ti to practice with you?" Master Old Ghost said.
"Cough! Cough! Look at what you’re saying, Master, it’s like you’re making feel like an outsider," Zhang Xiaohao replied.
He then recounted what happened in the tomb of the Cycle Palace Realm Great Power.
"So that’s what happened! No wonder the Dragon Slayer Blade disappeared for a thousand years, how could it just appear out of nowhere... it was hidden there," Master Old Ghost said.
"Master, what’s the story behind this Dragon Slayer Blade? You seem to imply that it’s very famous," Zhang Xiaohao asked.
"In ancient tis, there was a legend that said, ’He who obtains the Dragon Slayer Blade shall rule the world, and without Heaven Sword being unsheathed, who can compete?’ However, since the end of that great battle between the righteous and the demonic paths in ancient tis, all famous divine weapons, including those even more powerful ones passed down from the ancients, disappeared overnight, and their disappearance has remained a mystery to this day," Master Old Ghost said solemnly.
"Master, could it be that there’s a huge secret hidden within this Dragon Slayer Blade?" Zhang Xiaohao asked again.
"Hmm! To unravel this secret, one must first collect the Heaven Sword, Demon God Spear, and Heavenly Emperor Sword, the three great divine weapons of antiquity. Only then might there be a sliver of possibility to unlock the secrets within the Dragon Slayer Blade!" Master Old Ghost replied.
"Master, compared to the Fish Intestine Sword, which one is more powerful?" Zhang Xiaohao asked, tilting his head.
"The Fish Intestine Sword is one of the top ten divine weapons of the early ancient era, crafted by a generation of artifact-refining master who devoted his life’s work to it. Naturally, its prowess is no less than that of the Dragon Slayer Blade! However, unlike the Dragon Slayer Blade, it does not carry a great secret," Master Old Ghost explained.
Having said this,
Master Old Ghost’s eyes suddenly widened again.
"You rascal, tell the truth, do you also have the Fish Intestine Sword in your possession?" Master Old Ghost asked.
"Yes, Master! It just fell from the sky by accident," Zhang Xiaohao said casually.
With a flip of his palm, he took out the Fish Intestine Sword from the Shennong Ring.
"It really is one of the top ten ancient divine weapons, the Fish Intestine Sword! It seems the ancient battle was not as straightforward as it appeared on the surface!" Master Old Ghost said, squinting his eyes.
"Eh! Master, what’s with that expression?" Zhang Xiaohao asked in surprise.
"Xiaohao, do you wish to unveil the secret of the Dragon Slayer Blade?" Master Old Ghost suddenly asked with a smile.
"Don’t be like that, Master! I get scared when you call Xiaohao, nothing good cos when you address by my na. Just call rascal," Zhang Xiaohao shrugged and said.
He rembered the years spent on the mountain—whenever Master Old Ghost called him by na, it was never for anything good.
It was either a mission or extortion of the hard-earned mission rewards.
"I am your Master, would I harm you? Seriously though, do you want to solve the great mystery hidden within the Dragon Slayer Blade?" Master Old Ghost continued to tempt.
"Alright! You’re the Master, what can I say after you put it like that? Tell , what do you want to do?" Zhang Xiaohao asked.
"Very simple! I want you to hold the Fish Intestine Sword in your left hand and the Dragon Slayer Blade in your right, and with all your strength, strike the two divine weapons against each other," Master Old Ghost instructed firmly.
"Ah! Master, are you sure you’re not kidding? What if both divine weapons get destroyed by doing this?" Zhang Xiaohao exclaid in shock.
"Trust , there will be no mistakes! Even if they are destroyed, they are but two divine weapons! So other day, I will just capture an artifact-refining master and have them recast and reforge them," Master Old Ghost said nonchalantly.
"I see! Since they aren’t yours, it’s no wonder you don’t fret about using them!" Zhang Xiaohao snorted.
"Though, compared to two divine weapons, I am more curious about the huge secret hidden in the Dragon Slayer Blade."
"That’s my apprentice! What are re divine weapons? If we uncover the imnse secret behind the Dragon Slayer Blade, with your Master taking action, we, master and disciple together, will claim it for ourselves," Master Old Ghost said arrogantly.
"Okay!" Zhang Xiaohao nodded.
He put his phone away properly.
Jumping off the bed, he held the Fish Intestine Sword in his left hand and the Dragon Slayer Blade in his right.
"Netherworld Demon Body!"
As Zhang Xiaohao’s voice fell, his body glowed with black luster, like an ancient Demon God descending.
Black light flickered, exuding supre domineering aura.
"Break for !"
Having said this,
he exerted force with both arms, and a powerful strength erupted.
Wielding the divine weapons in his hands, he fiercely crashed them into each other.
