Chapter 1871 - Suspicious Evil Infant (1/2)
“The last time the Heaven Punishing Ancestral Sword appeared was in the ancient Dragon God Realm, and it was tossed into the Well of Samsara so that the devil race wouldn’t be able to get their hands on it,” Qianye Ying’er said suddenly. “Similar records of the event also exist in the Brahma Monarch God Realm and many other king realms, so this part is most likely the truth.”
“I’m surprised to read that the ancient daughter of the Dragon God is sealed inside the Ancestral Sword though.”
“... a lot of people must’ve tried to search for the Ancestral Sword, right?” Yun Che asked.
“If it was another star realm, then believe me when I say that every inch of the land would’ve been scoured a million times over,” Qianye Ying’er replied indifferently. “This is the Dragon God Realm, however. Who in the world would dare to invade this place? That being said, the Dragon God Realm themselves probably never stopped searching for the sword. The Forbidden Land of Samsara especially must’ve been searched again and again.”
“What does it matter if they found the Heaven Punishing Ancestral Sword though? Unless the sword acknowledges the wielder as its master, its powers will greatly reduce the wielder’s lifespan.”
“Going by the ancient standards, all beings in the current universe are considered mortals. This means that using the Heaven Punishing Ancestral Sword by force is akin to committing suicide. What would be the point even if the sword possesses the power to destroy the Primal Chaos itself?”
“Of course there is a point,” Yun Che said quietly. “Assuming that I found the sword four years ago, I wouldn’t have hesitated to destroy the world at the cost of my own life.”
Qianye Ying’er frowned deeply before exhaling a bit. Her eyebrows relaxed slowly as she said, “To many people, this so-called number one Heavenly Profound Treasure is not worth even a hair on your person… you will do well to remember my words if you ever think such thoughts in the future.”
Yun Che couldn’t help but shoot her a strange look.
Qianye Ying’er immediately looked away and added stiffly, “I’m speaking on behalf of your wife and daughter.”
“I know. I’ll remember it.” Yun Che nodded lightly.
“...” The reply was so serious that it was almost obedient. It surprised Qianye Ying’er so much that she didn’t know how to reply for a time.
Yun Che returned his gaze to the Ancient Records of the Dragon God.
Yun Che had already known that the daughter of the Dragon God was sealed inside the Heaven Punishing Ancestral Sword as far back as the Profound Sky Continent.
Judging from the Primordial Azure Dragon’s story and last words, he most likely had succeeded in transforming his daughter into the Heaven Punishing Ancestral Sword’s sword spirit.
He would’ve succumbed to despair and passed away a long time ago if that wasn’t the case, much less persisted until the current time.
The real surprise of this record was the fact that the Dragon God Seal contained a wisp of the Ancestral God’s divine power. It was probably the Ancient Dragon God Tribe’s greatest secret.
It was the highest power that transcended even the primordial after all. Using the Ancestral God’s divine power as the medium, he had supposedly formed a connection with the Ancestral Sword’s internal space, fused his daughter and the Ancestral Sword’s consciousness together, and transformed her into the Ancestral Sword’s sword spirit...
Assuming that they shared perfect compatibility, the Primordial Azure Dragon’s effort certainly had a theoretical chance at success. For example, He Ling had become the pearl spirit of both the Sky Poison Pearl and the Eternal Heaven Pearl.
On the other hand, it was the Heaven Punishing Ancestral Sword, a Heavenly Profound Treasure that was higher than both the Sky Poison Pearl and the Eternal Heaven Pearl. No one could say what the final outcome might be.
One thing was certain though, the Heaven Punishing Ancestral Sword was one of the few—perhaps only—supreme creations that were on par with the Ancestral God in terms of existence. Therefore, a power that could truly destroy it didn’t exist before, now, or in the future.
In other words, assuming that the Dragon God’s daughter successfully became the Ancestral Sword’s sword spirit, she too would’ve become an eternal existence.
She and the Heaven Punishing Ancestral Sword would’ve survived until the current world unless she severed that tie herself.
However, assuming that it was a success, it begged the question of why she hadn’t appeared to the world for so many years, and why she hadn’t sought out the Dragon God’s soul who had lived a million years in his pitiful state just to see her once more...

……
No… it cannot be...
If she truly is the sword spirit of the Ancestral Sword, there is no chance that Long Bai could’ve harmed her… what am I thinking? There’s no way she could be...
Yun Che shook his head unconsciously to dispel a certain woman who, for some reason, overlapped with his imagined image of the Dragon God’s daughter.
But maybe… just maybe… if he pretended that all the inconsistencies and contradictions didn’t exist… and that it really was her...
Could she perhaps… still live… in a form that no one from the current world could understand...
“Yun Che… Yun Che!!”
It took several cries of his name to finally break Yun Che out of his reverie.
“Why did you blank out all of a sudden?”
“... I was thinking about the whereabouts of the Ancestral Sword,” Yun Che replied.
“Bullshit!” Qianye Ying’er hmphed accusingly. “I should’ve brought a mirror with me! You were obviously thinking about some woman just now!”
Yun Che: “...”
Suddenly, Qianye Ying’er pushed Yun Che roughly to a sitting position on the floor. There was a rush of fragrance and a flash of fabric, and before he knew it Qianye Ying’er was sitting on his left thigh and resting her long, smooth legs on his right knee. She breathed out both forcefully and softly into his ears, “You will not think about another woman while I’m with you.”
Ever since Long Bai had died, and news of the Blue Pole Star’s safety had become known to Qianye Ying’er, the woman had become a lot more impudent than she used to be. Yun Che rolled his eyes at her briefly before pulling her long skirt upward and exposing her legs. They were easily prettier than snow itself.
Yun Che moved his finger upward until his entire arm was buried deep within her clothes. The indescribable sensation in his hand was ten thousand times better than even the most flawless sheep-fat white jade.
