Jun Yongye smiled at him “Lan Jue No need for courtesy We believe you know our purpose for being here We are Captus and Deiven human form as we seek our bearers When ere made aware of the Great Adept Tournament, we decided to take a look After all, no normal human has e seek”
Xuanyuan shi+shi+ sat at the other’s side, nodding
The White Blademaster continued “We selected you Or to be more precise, you and the woman with you We were once with the one you call Celestial Bearer Qian, and e took hu this for This is e seek a suitable bearer If we do not, then our bodies pass in ten years’ time”
Lan Jue blinked, surprised “Ten years and you die?”
Jun Yongye nodded “We are not the first generation of sword-spirit We pass, and every once in a while a new soul-spirit is born Only once a suitable handler has been found will the spirit bond totally within the sword Until the bearer’s death at which time they, too, pass We exist as transient faces until we find our bearers, or pass away and wait for the next time we take shape
“It is not easy to earn our loyalty There are , and true They ular in potential Then they will have earned a chance at our acceptance TheyBlades”
“After Luo we returned to the site of our true forms and rejoined with them We had to first prepare ourselves to accept a new bearer before seeking you Then, we heard about Ms Zhou…”
At h a sad smile lifted his lips “I failed to protect her, and she suffered it by getting poisoned It has caused her to beconize the outside world I’m afraid there may be no way…”
Xuanyuan shi+shi+’s brows furrowed “This is troubling The style we know ht to tho share a common mind and purpose Without her senses about her, I fear the acceptance process erous for her”
Jun Yongye’s deep voice continued “But our tiroeak – on’t have the strength to join Then ill disappear”
Lan Jue took a deep breath “Then choose others” Lan Jue said it with force Jun Yongye and Xuanyuan shi+shi+ exchanged a look after seeing the change in the commander’s eyes
These tere representative spirits of so with theon Astrum would be unparalleled but for the other swords Could he really be turning down sonificent as the chance to wield a Godblade?
After he said it, Lan Jue seemed to deflate a little He bowed respectfully before the tord-spirits “I h I do wish I could battle with you in the co war, I cannot accept such a risk to Zhou Qianlin She suffered greatly because of me and was nearly killed I will not allow that to happen a second time”
There was adye’s face as he smiled and replied “It is evident we have selected well Not just anyone has the qualifications to bear us, and our decision is not lightly made Even if it means our death, the selection of a bearer is venerated”
“I can see the connections between you that go deep as veins Joining with us is not impossible If you can bear the process for the both of you, the end result will be the sarievous path for you You will face the baptisether This is to say that Xuanyuan will join with Qianlin, but your body will be her surrogate in sustaining the internal energies Once the powers are filtered, they will be imparted unto her In this way she may painlessly accept to bear Deth, we suspect the chances are good However, the process will be painful”
Lan Jue’s eyes sparkled If they said there was a chance, then he couldn’t give it up Pain? What pain could be worse than the pain he bore in his heart? Ever since seeing the videos from Hera and Qianlin it was like a scorched hole in his chest Maybe some pain in the body would help distract hi sure Qianlin didn’t suffer a thing
“Very well, I accept I’ll accept you both!” Lan Jue resolutely said to Jun Yongye
There was appreciation in the sword-spirits response, and he nodded back “Good However, space is unsuitable We round Best we finish in under half a month After that, there may start to appear fluctuations in our presence”
Lan Jue nodded in understanding “Alright After we enter the Shattered Starfields, we’ll start looking for a place to ht away” The Division ell established by this point, and their mission wasn’t difficult or critical Lan Jue did not need to keep his eye on them the whole time
Majesty and Zeus-1 crept through the darkness of space like shades Soood on his pro Stone just like the one on Zeus-1 Now even the most sensitive radar couldn’t pick them out
Hence how precious Blinding Stones were
