Chapter 381: Plum Emperor Sword – Part 1 (2/2)

Suddenly, the sword fell down to the ground. Because of the previous battle with Lu Fengxian, it ran out of energy and Soul Qi.

'#$%@&#@$'

It screamed in an incomprehensible language as if it cursed Lu Fengxian and Siren City for its current shabby state.

Sensing how the immortal-grade sword grew weak, Jia Wenhe tried again.

This time, he managed to lift the sword and bring it back to the city!

”HAHAHAHA!! BIG CATCH! BIG CATCH!!”

The elder was delighted, thinking that he managed to secure the immortal-grade sword. Now, he only needed to get rid of the covenant between the sword and its master.

As soon as Jia Wenhe injected his Qi into the sword, it wiggled out of Jia Wenhe's hand. While it was resisting, it started absorbing the Life Essence in the air.

After it regained enough power, the sword moved by itself.

Then, it attacked Jia Wenhe!

SWUA

The sword grazed Jia Wenhe's wrist and shoulders in a flash.

”OUCH!”

CLANK

CLANK

Fortunately, the sentient sword was confused as it couldn't detect Ling Tianlong's presence. It attacked everything in random, including buildings, roads, and anything that emitted Life Qi.

Jia Wenhe and the beastmen fled from the berserk sword right away. As soon as they were a hundred meters apart, the sword ignored them and hacked at the nearest building.

Because of the commotion, Wei Yuan, yin slaves, Fogan, Zhao Bao, and others came to look.

”What's wrong, senior Jia?” Wei Yuan was surprised by the wounds on Jia Wenhe's body.

”This stupid sword did it!”

Ju Shoufen smacked the back of Jia Wenhe's head, ”This is what you get for trying to mess with an immortal-grade sword. You can't wield it unless the owner is dead or the soul in the weapon acknowledges you.”

”But I thought it ran out of energy!”

”Then, why did you have to bring it here! This city is filled with Life Essence. Obviously, it will regain its power!”

It was too late for everyone to remove the Plum Emperor Sword from this city. The sentient weapon began emitting its aura as it had restored enough power to move by itself.

After attacking random buildings for a while, the soul inside the sword slowly regained its logical thinking. Now, it pointed the tip of its sword toward the crowd.

Ma Moxi rushed in with the soul sword in his hand. He swung down, trying to bash the rampaging sword to the ground.

CLANK

Getting hit by the ambush, Plum Emperor Sword was knocked to the ground, but it tried to get back up.

BANG

Ma Moxi stomped on its blade body, subduing it to the ground. Moreover, he circulated his gold element Qi, enhancing his physique and his legs.

SCREECH!

Plum Emperor Sword screamed in frustration. It wiggled, trying to break free from Ma Moxi's feet. Unfortunately, it couldn't move.

'Damn you all! Once I can escape, I swear I'll kill every single of you demons and demon worshipers!'

The sentient sword screamed at the crowd and Ma Moxi, but no one could hear its voice as nobody had made a covenant with it.

Yet, one of the yin slaves heard the faint voice of an old man.

Kang Yan doubted her ears at first. While she had been standing behind the crowd, she looked around, trying to find the source of the mysterious whisper.

'Let me go, you damn brat! Don't you know who I am!? I'm the Great Kang Dongfang, the Dao God of Plum Emperor Sword Style! Once I fulfill my karma and break free from this stupid curse, I'll fucking slaughter all of you!!'

”Kang Dongfang?”

Kang Yan unintentionally muttered in a faint voice, repeating the name that she had heard.

Suddenly, ”Kang Dongfang”, the Plum Emperor Sword stopped moving for a moment. Then, he shouted.

'Who was it!? Who uttered my name!? Who just said my name!? Show yourself!'

Kang Yan heard the voice again. She tilted her head, bemused.

”I should be the one saying that. Who are you? Where are you? Who is this Kang Dongfang?”

Suddenly, the sword under Ma Moxi's feet gathered the surrounding Qi in the air to its blade.

Ma Moxi was alarmed. He pointed the tip of the soul sword down, planning to stab Plum Blossom Sword's blade body and destroy it.

Unfortunately, it suddenly burst out a faint strand of Soul Qi, knocking everybody nearby to the sky.

Ma Moxi vomited blood and his as he suffered a direct attack from the sword. As for the onlookers, their innards ruptured while their dantian almost explode inside-out.

Yet, Kang Yan was fine. She stood there, looking at her friends and senior in shock.

The sword was finally free from Ma Moxi's feet. He hovered in front of Kang Yan, who had heard his voice.

'Little girl, who are you!? How did you hear my voice!? No one but Ling Tianlong should be able to hear me! What is your relationship with my partner!?'
