"This... this is impossible!" Jin Xidao's eyes nearly jumped out of his sockets when he looked at the half-remaining Blood Cloud Sword in his hand.
The Blood Cloud Sword was forged by him using the 'Blood Steel King'. Even the material of this sword is pure purple gold, without any trace of mortal iron. It took him three years to refine it, how could it be broken like this? Jin Xidao couldn't believe it, and couldn't believe it at all. He seemed to be in a daze. Where could he still be as arrogant and ferocious as before
"Jin Xidao, I think you should understand now that there is a world outside the world, and there are people outside the world, right?" Looking at Jin Xidao, who had not come back to his senses for a long time, Liu Yunxi also had lingering fears. If Liu Keer hadn't returned in time, if she hadn't brought back such a magic weapon, the Liu family would have fallen into a point of no return today.
He can completely imagine how Jin Xidao will build momentum and crazily attack the Liu family's reputation after he destroys the Liu family's golden plaque. When the time comes, the swords of the entire Qingyun Empire will also fall into the abyss. In this business, the consequences are by no means as serious as usual!
"Liu Yunxi, I will never let it go like this!" Jin Xidao dropped the half-broken sword in his hand and said he could not stay any longer. With a harsh word, he flew out of Liu's house.
"Don't go, why don't you sit back?" Looking at Jin Xidao's embarrassed departure, Liu Fanwei couldn't help shouting, which immediately caused a burst of laughter among the Liu family disciples.
"Don't laugh!" Seeing everyone laughing happily, Liu Yunxi frowned and shouted loudly.
"Dad! Jin Xidao has suffered so much. How happy this is. Why don't you let us laugh?" Liu Fanwei asked in confusion.
Liu Yunxi snorted and said, "If you win without force, what's there to be happy about?"
Liu Yunxi's words immediately made the Liu family's children speechless. Speaking of which, Liu Yunxi was absolutely right. The sword Liu Keer brought back was not the work of their Liu family at all. Can defeating Jin Xidao with a sword made by someone else be considered a victory for the Liu family
Seeing the solemn expressions on all the disciples' faces, Liu Yunxi said in a deep voice, "I'm afraid none of you thought that in just three years, Jin Xidao's sword-making skills would be so powerful and he could forge such a magic weapon, right? So I have long been interested in it." You said, when we forge swords together, we are sailing against the current. If we don't advance, we will retreat! If we don't study hard, I think it won't be long before we ourselves have to smash the golden plaque of "The Best Sword in the World"! "
Liu Fanwei stroked the golden plaque in front of him and felt deeply that although Liu Yunxi's words were heavy, every word made sense. As the eldest son of the Liu family, he naturally wanted to express his position. He looked at Liu Yunxi with a serious face and said, "Dad, don't worry! We will work harder and we will not let this golden plaque be shamed!"
Liu Yunxi nodded with satisfaction and said to Liu Ke'er with a smile, "Ke'er, come and hang this golden plaque back."
"I... I'll hang it up?" Liu Ke'er looked surprised. This golden plaque symbolizes the greatest glory of the Liu family. Even if it is dirty and needs to be wiped, it is the two brothers Liu Fanwei and Liu Fanxin who do it personally. Others can't even watch from a distance. Not allowed, let alone touched.
"Of course! If it weren't for you, this golden plaque would have been destroyed today. It was you who saved our Liu family, so of course you should be the one to hang this golden plaque back up with your own hands."
Although it is just hanging a plaque, it is still a hard work, but the meaning behind it is huge. It symbolizes Liu Yunxi's recognition of Liu Keer, and it symbolizes the gratitude of the entire Liu family to Liu Keer.
With a feeling of reverence and excitement, Liu Keer carefully hung the golden plaque back to a distant place. For fear of hanging it crookedly, he corrected it several times before giving up.
After Liu Keer hung up the golden plaque, Liu Yunxi immediately dismissed everyone, personally took Liu Keer's hand, called Liu Fanwei, and Liu Fanxin went into his study together.
"Ke'er, tell me, where did you get this sword?" Liu Yunxi held the sword tightly and never let go of it from just now to now. It seemed as if the sword flew away as soon as I let go.
Liu Keer knew that Liu Yunxi would ask this, and she had no intention of hiding it. She smiled and said, "The young master of the Xu family compensated me."
"Pay it to you?" Liu Fanwei and Liu Fanxin looked at each other with great joy. This undoubtedly means that the current owner of this sword is Liu Ke'er. It also means that this sword belongs to their Liu family. How can the two brothers not be excited?
Compared to the two brothers, Liu Yunxi paid more attention to the first half of Liu Ke'er's words and asked, "Which young master of the Xu family?"
"Xu Yaoting, the grandson of Prince Dingshan."
"Is it that little beast!?" Liu Yunxi shouted in surprise and blurted out. Obviously, the old man of the Liu family has a bad taste in Xu Yaoting.
Liu Fanwei and Liu Fanxin began to feel strange. Liu Fanwei asked, "Ke'er, why did he pay you for the sword?"
Liu Keer said with a smile, "He broke my sword, so of course he has to pay me back."
"But your sword is not even worth one ten thousandth of the value of this sword. How could he be so stupid?"
Liu Fanxin took over the words and said with a smile, "I don't think Xu Yaoting is stupid, but he doesn't know the difference at all. How can he tell the quality of a sword? In his opinion, it is fair and reasonable to pay one for one." !”
"What about King Dingshan? Xu Yaoting doesn't know anything about goods. Doesn't his old man also know about goods? I guess Xu Yaoting probably stole this sword from his grandfather. Dad, I wonder if you should return this sword, otherwise King Dingshan will come to you. Come on, it's not going to be easy!" Liu Fanwei said with a frown.
"Give it back?" Liu Fanxin shouted immediately. If such a magic weapon was returned like this, it would be like cutting his flesh and gouging out his heart.
Liu Fanwei was no different. Hearing what Liu Fanxin said, his expression suddenly became painful.
Although Liu Yunxi is already quite old, it is obvious that he has not yet reached the state of not being happy or sad about things, and he is quite hesitant at this time.
Seeing the sad faces of the father and son, Liu Keer laughed and said, "Grandpa, dad, and second uncle, you are worrying too much. I don't think this sword is the favorite of Prince Dingshan, and it's not even considered a treasure." His collection!”
"How do you say this?" The father and son asked almost in unison, with an amazing tacit understanding.
Liu Keer said seriously: "When Xu Yaoting gave me this sword, it didn't even have a scabbard. It was just wrapped in rags. I picked up this scabbard at will on my way back. You guys Think about it, if this was really Prince Dingshan’s beloved thing, would he be so dismissive?”
Liu Fanwei's face lit up, and he nodded quickly and said, "I think what Ke'er said is reasonable. The majestic Prince Dingshan, can't he even afford a good scabbard?"
"Furthermore, I estimate that this sword should have been obtained by Xu Yaoting recently. Perhaps Prince Dingshan does not know the existence of this sword at all." Liu Keer continued in a very affirmative tone.
"Ke'er, why is this?" Liu Fanwei asked. He was becoming more and more satisfied with his daughter.
Liu Keer looked at Liu Yunxi with a smile and said, "Grandpa, you can't help but notice, this sword... seems to have been cast recently!" (To be continued)
