The Sword God of the Universe-Chapter 152: That Magic Artifact Isn’t Bad
Chapter 152: Chapter 152: That Magic Artifact Isn’t Bad
"The Wei Family wouldn’t dare! The Wei Family wouldn’t dare!" Wei Jiuhe’s body trembled slightly.
The Wei Family elders and managers also bowed their heads, not daring to meet Bai Xue’s gaze.
An arm cannot twist a thigh; if stubbornly attempted, the consequence is bound to be a tragedy.
City Lord Bai Xue, having killed Qian Family Elder Qian Feng outright, if the Wei Family still didn’t know any better, this City Lord might very well wipe out their family within the day.
For a formidable Dao Spirit Realm practitioner, annihilating a family like the Wei Family in a day was hardly a difficult feat.
"Jing Yan, let’s go!" Bai Xue then turned to speak to Jing Yan.
"Oh, okay!" Jing Yan subconsciously nodded.
Then his eyebrows moved slightly, and his expression changed, "City Lord, my weapon the Flowing Water Sword was thrown away during the fight with the Wei Family elder..."
Jing Yan’s Flowing Water Sword, even though it was just a High Grade Weapon, was no longer considered extremely precious to him, but he had used this longsword for quite some time and had become attached to it. Moreover, the sword was a gift from Uncle Chenxing, so of course, it couldn’t be carelessly discarded.
"Bring Jing Yan’s weapon here right away!" Before Bai Xue could speak, Wei Jiuhe shouted.
His heart was bleeding!
Just previously, Jing Yan’s casual throw had caused the death of over a dozen Wei Family members, and several others were wounded, totaling twenty to thirty casualties.
Now, he had to personally return this murderous weapon to that damned Jing Yan.
How humiliating!
But there was no other choice.
The Flowing Light Sword was quickly brought over, and Wei Jiuhe personally handed it to Jing Yan.
"Clan Leader Wei, thank you very much," Jing Yan said with a smile as he accepted his Flowing Light Sword.
"By the way, my longsword is only a Top Grade Mortal Artifact, which has become somewhat cumbersome to wield. Clan Leader Wei, Wei Zhenzhi’s magic artifact seems quite good, it’s just the right type of longsword for me," Jing Yan said with a smirk, "and Wei Zhenzhi no longer needs this magic artifact."
Jing Yan, while speaking, naturally looked towards the red magic artifact longsword on the ground not far away.
Magic artifacts, superior to mortal artifacts, are undoubtedly of great value. The cost of an ordinary magic artifact would be at least 100,000 Spirit Stones.
It’s worth noting that even among the Jing Family elders, most didn’t wield magic artifacts; they only had top-quality weapons in the realm of Mortal Artifacts.
So, it was an opportunity Jing Yan couldn’t miss.
Hearing Jing Yan’s words, Wei Jiuhe’s cheeks twitched as if cramping.
"Heh...hehe..." Wei Jiuhe’s laugh was unsightly.
Of course, he understood what Jing Yan meant. freewēbnoveℓ.com
But it was a magic artifact! A magic artifact meant what to a family like the Wei Family? In the entire Wei Family, there were only two magic artifacts, and now Jing Yan wanted to take one away.
Damn it... Damn it... It was infuriating!
Wei Jiuhe’s heart was a cacophony of feelings; he really didn’t want to let Jing Yan take the magic artifact away.
"Clan Leader Wei, is there a problem?" Bai Xue’s indifferent gaze swept toward Wei Jiuhe.
Wei Jiuhe’s heart skipped a beat and he hurriedly said, "Jing Yan, since you fancy this longsword, I’ll make the decision to gift it to you."
Wei Jiuhe personally went over, picked up the magic artifact red longsword that originally belonged to Wei Zhenzhi, and handed it to Jing Yan.
"Clan Leader Wei is indeed generous, thank you very much," Jing Yan expressed his gratitude with a smile.
Then, Jing Yan picked up Liu Xiaoyue, who had fallen into unconsciousness.
"Elder, I mentioned before that I, Jing Yan, owe you a favor, and I’ll remember that. In the future, should you ever need my help for anything, you can send someone to the Jing Family in Donglin City with your message," Jing Yan said solemnly to Nian Lan.
"Oh... Okay! Alright!" Nian Lan responded somewhat dazedly.
Indeed, Jing Yan had said such a thing before.
But at the time, Nian Lan didn’t take his words seriously. What use was the favor of a dying man? So, at that moment, Nian Lan had responded casually, not really paying it any heed.
And now...
Who could have anticipated that Jing Yan would have such a connection with the City Lord of Duyang City? Although the depth of their relationship was unknown, the immediate arrival of City Lord Bai Xue upon learning that Jing Yan had come to the Wei Family revealed that the relationship with Jing Yan was more than mere acquaintance.
Hence, the value of this favor was immeasurable.
Many of the Duyang City dignitaries around Nian Lan now looked on enviously.
They regretted it!
Why was Nian Lan’s luck so good? Damnit, if they had known that Jing Yan would survive and knew the Bai Xue City Lord, they should have spoken up for Jing Yan first.
Indeed, Nian Lan had only said a few words. Moreover, initially, Nian Lan spoke up for Jing Yan because of the Nian Family’s discord with the Wei Family. It was simply a case of good fortune for Nian Lan.
City Lord Bai Xue, Jing Yan, and Liu Xiaoyue left the Wei Family Mansion.
Nian Lan and the others quickly took their leave as well. Although the Wei Family’s family competition had not yet concluded, it seemed unlikely to continue given the heavy losses suffered by the Wei Family on this day.
"Clan Leader, what do we do now?" A Wei Family elder in the Innate Realm asked with a serious look on his face.
"Bai Xue has gone too far, showing no regard for our Wei Family."
"Indeed, it’s infuriating!"
Several of the Wei Family’s high-ranking members began to speak out against Bai Xue.
Wei Jiuhe took a look at them and sighed in his heart.
City Lord Bai Xue, having killed a Qian Family elder in a flash, would he regard the Wei Family any differently?
However... this matter couldn’t just end here.
"I’m going to the Qian Family now to meet with the Qian Family Patriarch and explain the situation thoroughly. Humph, with the death of Qian Family’s Elder at Bai Xue’s hands, they certainly won’t let the matter rest," Wei Jiuhe said quietly.
The Qian Family Elder died within the Wei Family Mansion. Wei Jiuhe had to personally explain the situation to the Qian Family; even though many had witnessed that it was City Lord Bai Xue who killed Qian Feng, if he didn’t personally visit the Qian Family, they might vent their first frustrations on his Wei Family.
"Right, go to the Qian Family, let the Qian Family Patriarch decide."
"Clan Leader, shall we accompany you?"
"The Qian Family Patriarch is also a practitioner of the Dao Spirit Realm. I heard the Qian Family has connections throughout Lanqu County City. If they step in, Bai Xue won’t have it easy," the Wei Family’s high-ranking members said, their eyes shining as they spoke.
The events at the Wei Family spread like the wind throughout Duyang City. The speed at which news circulated always amazed people.
