278 Jealousy (2/2)

The light black halo enveloped the black sword. The halo’s light black color stood in stark contrast with the sword’s dark black color. It was as though a film had suddenly developed around the sword, giving it a refined luster.

“Ding~”

The black sword vibrated slightly as it reverberated a clear sword hum.

Shi Xiaobai was given a fright. He felt the black sword stuck to his left hand like suction cups. The sword’s hum seemed to express a form of ingratiating closeness at him.

This black sword’s temper was bad?

Shi Xiaobai felt it was the opposite. He had a nagging illusion that the black sword was prepared to cling onto him until death.

Heartless was confounded as he said with a tremble, “It initiated…the acknowledgment of you as master? How… How could this be!?”

Over the past millennia, a few people from the Ye family had managed to gain control over the bad-tempered black sword, but none of them managed to make it acknowledge them as master.

But now, it had taken the initiative to acknowledge Tu Dahei as master?

For a holy sword to take the initiative to acknowledge a master was an amazing matter. Furthermore, it was this black sword with an odd temper. What was going on!?

At this moment, a sharp sword hum resonated!

Heartless immediately felt the white holy sword in his hand shake violently.

Heartless looked down as the white holy sword’s creamy white luster was flickering.

“Ah!”

Heartless suddenly screamed as his right hand quickly released. The holy sword’s hilt which was originally extremely warm to the touch suddenly became extremely cold, a cold colder than the dead winter’s ice. It had frozen his palm numb instantly!

Holy Radiance fell from Heartless’ hand but did not drop to the ground. Instead, it floated in mid-air and rapidly flew towards Shi Xiaobai!

As Holy Radiance shot out, it stopped in front of Shi Xiaobai. A frantic sword hum was emitted from Holy Radiance, as though it was an aggrieved child’s crying complaints.

At the same time, the black sword in Shi Xiaobai’s left hand produced a sword hum.

Holy Radiance’s blade switched directions and by angling itself at the black sword, it began to vibrate.

The two swords’ hums began to interlock as though they were quarreling children.

Heartless was dumbfounded as he stared at this scene. As he felt his slightly frostbitten palm, he thought to himself that the white sword’s temper was clearly worse than the black sword’s!

Furthermore, why were these two swords appearing to be ‘jealous’ over Tu Dahei?

It wasn’t just appearance, it was definitely ‘jealousy’!

Heartless finally figured out the reason why the black sword would resist him at a critical juncture despite him obtaining a preliminary recognition of the black sword. It was not because black sword suddenly had a bad mood and its temper flared.

It was because it had met Tu Dahei. Every time he slashed it at Tu Dahei, it would resist vigorously. It was resisting him because of Tu Dahei!

“What…what’s the meaning of this?”

Heartless was too deep for tears.

What sort of charm did Tu Dahei have? How did Tu Dahei make the black sword initiate the acknowledgment as master to the point of making the white sword feel insecure, resulting in the two holy swords ‘quarreling’ over him?

This was never seen or even heard of before!
