Chapter 335: 335 Fear of the younger generation
At the entrance of the Chu Family’s residence, two large red lanterns are hung, and the interior is decorated with bright lights and festive decorations, creating an atmosphere of joy and celebration.
In the backyard, a few people are sitting in the main hall, which has an unusually somber atmosphere.
At the top seat, an old man is leaning on a dragon-headed cane with a hunched body and his eyes closed, seeming to be asleep.
In the middle of the hall, there is a sabre lying on the ground, emitting a silvery glow.
The few people present are all staring at the sabre.
This is the Bright Moon Sabre, the priceless treasure of the Chu Family!
Five hundred years ago, the Chu Family’s ancestor was defeated by Qin Wu, and the Bright Moon Sabre was crushed, inflicting severe damage to himself.
Now, the Bright Moon Sabre has finally returned to its original owner.
The cost of this was the marriage of the direct descendent, Chu Xiyue, into the Qin Family.
Today, the Qin Family’s wedding procession came with the Bright Moon Sabre. After placing the bride in the bridal sedan chair, they left the Bright Moon Sabre at the Chu Family.
By this time, the Qin Family’s wedding procession should have already left Luo Prefecture.
The Chu Family has finally welcomed back its family treasure, but the faces of everyone in the hall show no joy.
This was exchanged with the daughter of the Chu Family; as far as the Chu Family is concerned, it’s an unspeakable humiliation.
But when strength is inferior, one can only endure such humiliation.
A woman at the top finally couldn’t help but speak out, her tone icy-cold, “The shame of today will be avenged tenfold in the future.”
This woman is Chu Xiao, the Chu Family’s second-in-command, with a cultivation level of third Sky Mana.
Over the years, due to injuries, the Chu Family’s ancestor often secluded himself. The Chu Family has effectively been supported by her. In terms of generation, she is Chu Xiyue’s great-grandmother.
Among the nine surnames in the world, the Chu Family is the only one led by a woman. Everyone present is a core member of the Chu Family and all are women.
This is quite rare among all the powers in Great Zhou.
This is directly related to the Chu Family’s cultivation method, only women can practice the Chu Family’s peerless method to perfection.
Thump!
All of a sudden, the old woman sitting at the main seat opened her eyes and struck the ground with the dragon-headed cane in her hand. The Bright Moon Sabre automatically flew into her hand.
In her eyes, a deep hint of puzzlement flashed. She muttered to herself, “What is that old ghost from the Qin Family up to?”
This old woman is the ancestor of the Chu Family. She has lived for a thousand years and once was injured by Qin Wu. She now looks like a frail old woman.
She’s even worse than the ancestor of the Cao family, Cao Jing.
She knows that Qin Wu has been coveting her power.
After the battle all those years ago, Qin Wu had intended to capture her alive after seizing the Bright Moon Sabre.
It was for this reason that she had found an opportunity to escape back to the Chu Family. If Qin Wu had wanted to kill her, she would have been killed.
A year ago, the Qin Family suddenly proposed a marriage to the Chu Family, surprisingly willing to use the Bright Moon Sabre as a betrothal gift.
She has always felt that there must be some kind of scheme involved.
How could Qin Wu be so foolish as to exchange a world-class divine weapon for a mortal woman?
Even so, the offer was something the Chu Family could not refuse.
A mortal disciple able to bring back the family treasure. Even if there was only a slight chance, they decided to gamble on it.
As a result, the Qin Family really sent the Bright Moon Sabre over.
The old woman had been sitting in front of the sabre for a whole day, always hesitant to reach out to take it.
How could Qin Wu so easily return this peerless divine weapon?
Anything out of the ordinary is a sign of trouble.
Are there any imperceptible prohibitions or traps left on it?
It was because of this worry that she had been hesitant to reach out and touch the Bright Moon Sabre.
Only after repeatedly confirming that there were no problems with the sabre did she pluck up her courage and took the Bright Moon Sabre.
There were no traps, nor did anything terrifying prohibited were triggered.
The Bright Moon Sabre safely landed in her hand, and her internal Mana resonated with the treasure in her hand.
Five hundred years!
Even in her heart that had weathered many storms and already quiet as a still water, a hint of excitement irrefutably emerged.
The method she practiced, called “Bright Moon in the Sky”, from the Blue Sky Palace, shares the same origin with the Bright Moon Sabre.
This peerless divine weapon can transform the vitality of heaven and earth into a unique Mana, which is of great benefit to the cultivation of “Bright Moon in the Sky”.
Since losing the Bright Moon Sabre, her cultivation level has stagnated. It is for this reason that the injury in her body could never heal.
