Hum!
Suddenly, an overwhelming aura erupted in the great hall. The constant humming filled the air, startling everyone and causing exclamations of shock. Everyone looked at the long sword emitting mighty waves of qi, all backing away in disbelief.
Obviously, this was not an ordinary holy weapon!
Yang Zhen, his eyes wide and mouth agape, cursed, “Does that damn thing have its consciousness or what? Is it… is it defying me?”
You re right!” Teased the rooster with an arrogant expression, disdainfully looking at Yang Zhen along with the cat.
Yang Zhen swatted it away, retorting, “You should just keep breaking your words into two syllables.”
Hua Youyue took a deep breath, addressing Yang Zhen, “Let me try.”
Yang Zhen hesitated slightly, stepping aside and advising, “Be careful, missy. If anything feels wrong, scream out loud, and I’ll protect you.”
Hua Youyue nodded, stepping forward under everyone’s intense gaze, standing beside the seat of the sect leader. With her left hand holding up her sleeve, she delicately and slowly grasped the hilt of the sword with her right hand.
Yang Zhen’s eyes widened, intently watching Hua Youyue’s right hand. Prepared to smash that damn seat at any sign of trouble.
Screech—!
A crisp, piercing sound rang out, echoing throughout the great hall. It startled Yang Zhen, who instinctively launched a kick.
“No harm!” Hua Youyue responded, looking surprised. With a clang of metal, she drew the long sword from its scabbard.
For a moment, the room was frozen in ice, an endless chill blanketed the entire hall. In the blink of an eye, everything in the room was covered in a layer of ice, including everyone present.
Yang Zhen’s eyelashes were turned to icicles. In disbelief, he gazed at the long sword in Hua Youyue’s hand; his eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
“She pulled it out single-handedly?” Yang Zhen exclaimed, pointing to the long sword in Hua Youyue’s hand, addressing the cat, “Damn, isn’t this bullying?”
The cat sneered with an awkward laugh. Just as it was about to reply, an earth- shattering cry resonated, piercing through the hall.
The long sword in Hua Youyue’s hand glowed brightly, emanating an imposing aura that was almost impossible to look directly at. It seemed as if it could freeze the world, instilling terror in all present.
“Moon Shadow!” Hua Youyue murmured to herself. With a casual wave, she swung the sword, tracing a high arc in the air. Amidst the hum, a frosty moon appeared in mid-air and the surrounding temperature dropped even lower.
Just then, to everyone’s shock, the seat of the sect leader suddenly radiated an overwhelming aura. A young figure appeared leisurely, his energy vast and profound, encompassing the universe and stars, making it hard for anyone to look at him directly.
The young man’s hair was as white as snow, his eyes were electrifying. Glancing around, his gaze finally rested on Hua Youyue. He spoke, “Congratulations, the inheritor of Moon Shadow.”
Startled, Yang Zhen went over to Hua Youyue, staring at the white-haired young man and demanded, “Who are you?”
“I am Mo Fan!” The white-haired young man did not even glance at Yang Zhen, continuing, “Do not panic. By the time you see this scene, I probably have been dead for thousands of years, leaving behind a mere obsession, hoping for the continuation of the legacy.”
Upon seeing the man’s arrogance, and more importantly, his indifference towards him, Yang Zhen instantly erupted in rage. He pointed towards Mo Fan and roared, “I don’t care whether you are one obsession or two, I say…”
“The deadline has come…” Mo Fan continued, as though he didn’t hear Yang Zhen’s retort, “The disciples of the Heaven and Earth Saint Sect, all 1,300 of them, gather here to leave the legacy of Moon Shadow to the world. Since you have heard my words, you are the 136th generation of the Saint or Saintess of the Heaven and Earth Saint Sect. Moon Shadow carries the Heaven and Earth Nine Swords, each capable of shattering the heavens, do not use it to wreak havoc, or you will never recover!”
Stopping for a moment, Mo Fan showed a smile devoid of any emotion. He nodded and said, “Descendant, I do not have much time. Come and sit in the seat of honor.”
Hua Youyue looked hesitant, turning to Yang Zhen.
Yang Zhen looked questioningly at Hua Youyue and then at the eccentric Mo Fan before striding forward, sitting ceremoniously on the seat of honor.
Buzz!
A cold light flashed from the seat, Yang Zhen hastily jumped up exclaiming. Turning to look, his butt had already been frozen into an ice block.
Hua Youyue stifled a smile, shook her head at Yang Zhen, and gave him a comforting look. She gracefully moved to the main seat and slowly sat down. Boom!
A loud, earth-shaking sound echoed as Mo Fan’s silhouette gradually faded. In a mutter, he said, “The Moon Shadow legacy, everlasting and undying. It’s a pity, a real pity, that in my entire life, I could not decipher that Nameless Region. Such a pity! Such a pity! Such a pity!”
As Mo Fan’s voice faded, a fog gradually rose from the main seat. Hua Youyue disappeared within it. Yang Zhen reached out to touch it, but a sensation akin to an electric shock passed through, and he swiftly retracted his hand, shouting “Missy?”
“I’m fine!” Hua Youyue’s voice calmly reached out, and Yang Zhen released a sigh of relief.
The sly cat approached Yang Zhen, a mischievous grin spread across his face. “Kid, did you hear the last sentence that pompous guy said?”
Yang Zhen chuckled, sharing a knowing look with the sly cat, imitating Mo
Fan s tone and said, “Even after a lifetime of struggle, I wasn’t able to comprehend the Nameless Region. Damn, where is that Nameless Region?” The sly cat scratched his head, “I don’t know, should we go look for it?” All eyes turned to Yang Zhen in bewilderment. People like Mo Xueling shared puzzled looks amongst themselves, saying with a bitter smile, “Based on one sentence, where will you look for it?”
Yang Zhen sneered, and countered, “Nothing is difficult if you put your heart into it, and hard work pays off. Why should we be afraid of not finding that hellish place?”
Having said that, Yang Zhen, along with the sly cat and the flirtatious chicken, staggered out of the great hall.
Yang Zhen wasn’ t worried about the young girl’s safety. The inheritance couldn’t be learned in a day or two. He thought wandering around might bring some unexpected luck and he might discover the place where even the almighty couldn’t completely comprehend.
Seeing this, the rest of the crowd also started to disperse, venturing out to look for other inheritances in the sect.
This place was simply a meeting hall, the most important seat of Heaven and Earth Saint Sect’s inheritance. Other hilltops held different places, and of course, other inheritances existed.
Yang Zhen was not interested in those, as the young girl had already attained the legacy weapon inheritance, and the Heaven and Earth Nine Swords sounded magnificent. Naturally, he wouldn’t want those lesser inheritances, and was only interested in the thing that even Mo Fan failed to comprehend in his lifetime.
For several days thereafter, Yang Zhen and the sly cat were always wandering around. From time to time, they would hear about someone finding some inheritance or digging up some treasure, but they never found the inheritance mentioned by Mo Fan.
The sly cat growled in annoyance, “Kid, do you think that bastard Mo Fan said it on purpose?”
Yang Zhen was startled, then nodded, “It’s possible, it’s called misdirection or simply babbling!”
No way!” The flirtatious chicken shook its head at Yang Zhen’s side, staring at him, “Think!”
Yang Zhen stared blankly at the flirtatious chicken, speechless and hesitant. He suddenly had a flash of inspiration and began to laugh heartily.
The sly cat’s eyes also lit up, and the man and the cat began to laugh creepily.
“Kid, you figured it out?”
Yang Zhen nodded, “Why do you think there are two heavens here? One is the head of the Heaven and Earth Saint Sect, and the other is just a strand of divine consciousness. What is this divine consciousness doing here instead of staying in its own body?”
The sly cat cackled, “What could it be doing? Robbing, of course!”
A man, a cat, and a chicken huddled together, letting out eerie chuckles. They drew spine-chilling stares from the passersby, paying them no mind. The true chicken-cat-dupe troupe, oblivious to all.
