The Villain's Heart Black Moonlight

"Bang bang—"

The sound of violent heartbeats reached his ears. As a cultivator in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, Xie Zongchen had not felt this frightened for many years.

His scalp tingled as he heard a threat in the young man's calm tone.

How could he know those things?!

Hasn’t Xie Yingchen been in the Abyss of Chaos all this time!

And... the sword he mentioned...

Xie Zongchen looked at the box in Xie Yingchen's hand. It was made of the finest spirit-sealing jade and could protect the spiritual energy of the items inside to the greatest extent.

The price of this box alone is beyond the imagination of many monks.

Xie Zongchen remembered this box. After all, there were only a handful of treasures of this level in the entire cultivation world, and the Xie family had few of them either.

There was indeed a sword inside.

A companion spirit sword that should have belonged to the person in front of me.

Back then, the Xie family really made use of Xie Yingchen to the fullest. Things like the Companion Spirit Sword were growable spiritual weapons. As the strength of its owner increased, the quality of the spiritual weapon would also increase.

It is the kind of artifact that does not require smelting and is naturally most suitable for its owner.

Naturally, the Xie family coveted it, so they said, "Xie Yingchen is in the Abyss of Chaos and may not be of any use for the time being" and "He is still young, so we will send him there when he becomes stronger."

They forcibly seized the artifact.

Over time, it became known as the magical artifact "Floating Life Sword" to the Xie family and even the entire cultivation world.

Some time ago, in order to win over Lin Ye, several elders of the Xie family discussed and decided to give away this sword as one of the prizes for the top winner of the sect competition.

This kind of thing...

It’s not the time to let Xie Yingchen know yet.

Xie Zongchen's eyes flickered. He was about to say something, but the young man in front of him seemed to have seen through what he was thinking. He said expressionlessly, "I can sense its existence."

Xie Zongchen swallowed the lame lie of theft and damage.

"Why are you so arrogant? Even if you have done a great job defending the city, you can't be a robber and control the whereabouts of our Xie family's artifacts!"

At this moment, Xie Ningkang behind him seemed to be unable to bear Xie Zongchen's humiliation.

He spoke with some indignation.

Xie Zongchen wanted to stop him, but Xie Yingchen put his hand on his shoulder.

The hand had distinct joints and seemed light but it seemed to carry an irresistible force. Xie Zongchen was so overwhelmed that he couldn't utter a word.

He could only watch as Xie Ningkang directly told him the whereabouts of the Fu Sheng Sword.

"The Fu Sheng Sword is the treasure of my Xie family. For the sect competition this time, it has been handed over to the major sects as the highest-level prize for safekeeping. If you have the ability, go to the sect and get it!"

Xie Zongchen: “…”

He now had a clear understanding of what a bad teammate was.

After so many years of monopolization, Xie Ningkang might have completely forgotten the origin of the Fu Sheng Sword!

He really treated the artifact as a treasure owned by the Xie family!

"Sect competition?" Xie Yingchen seemed to lower his head slightly and thought for a moment, then said nothing and turned to head towards Luchuan.

When he left Yangxie City, the vague pressure finally weakened.

Xie Zongchen was extremely angry. He looked at Xie Ningkang in front of him, who was self-righteous and unaware of what stupid thing he had done, and he was so angry that he couldn't vent his anger.

Of course, there is more to come.

"Master, Xie Yingchen actually looted 80% of the treasures in our forbidden land!!"
