Chapter 51: Untitled

Cold Moon, who was watching and guarding at the side, glanced at the buzzing sword, her expression still faint and not surprised at all…

Jiang Li condensed her green aura to the palm of her hand and pulled back hard, trying to pull out the sword. However, what was shocking was that the sword suddenly shivered fiercely and a terrifying wave spread out, throwing Jiang Li into the distance. Shocked by the powerful airwave, Jiang Li fumbled and tumbled, then lay on the ground and with all fours facing the sky!

While everyone thought it was funny, they were also shocked. It turned out that the sword’s reaction just now was not the rhythm of it being pulled out, but its disgust with Jiang Li’s approach!

It was indeed an ancient treasure, so spiritual!

With Jiang Li standing out from the crowd, the other noble ladies who had stepped forward yet dared not take it lightly.

However, even though Jiang Li’s ending was very miserable and caused those who wanted to try to draw the sword to feel a bit scared, the minute they saw the devil emperor-like man, they were filled with fighting spirit again!

One after another, they went up and tried. Either the sword did not respond at all, or like Jiang Li, they were brutally thrown away by the sword.

Among the crowd, Zhen Xueyan looked at the sword-drawing scene with enthusiasm, then looked at Mo Yunhuang’s perfect profile, her eyes lovestruck.

Only such a perfect God-like man was worthy of her, Zhen Xueyan! She must be the destined person of this treasure sword. She would surely pull out this peerless sword, be crowned the winner, and earn His Royal Highness Cloud King’s love! When the time came, how would the b*tch Wei Zihou even compare to her? With the love of His Royal Highness Cloud King, destroying Wei Zihou and even the entire Wei family would be a breeze!

Thinking of this, Zhen Xueyan’s lips could not help but draw up into a smile like she was bound to succeed.

There were not many people who met the requirements of drawing the sword on stage. Soon, amongst the whole palace banquet, there was only Zhen Kexin, Zhen Xueyan, and Zihou left.

“Let me try it!” Zhen Kexin strode up to the sword, her face filled with confidence. Her eyes quickly swept across the crowd and finally stayed on Zihou’s body. She smirked coldly with obvious pride in her gaze.

Zihou could not help raising her eyebrows, quite speechless. Where did this woman’s self-confidence come from? She started provoking me before she even drew the sword. Is she so confident that she can pull it out?

Zhen Kexin allowed her blue aura to slowly pour into the sword. However, for a long time, the sword still showed no response. When everyone saw this, they all shook their heads, thinking that Zhen Kexin was not destined with this sword.

However, Zhen Kexin was not anxious about this. Instead, she smiled confidently and took out a dark green gem from her sleeves.

The dark green gemstone, the size of a palm, was surrounded by a dense fog under the light, glimmering with light, making it quite mysterious.

“Spirit Gathering Jade!” Many well-informed people and several voices sounded in unison.

“It’s the Spirit Gathering Jade, the Prime Minister’s estate is indeed a big deal!”

“The Spirit Gathering Jade is a soul item. With it, this sword might be pulled out!”

“…”

Spirit Gathering Jade, as the name implied, was an item capable of gathering spirits. Cultivators relied on absorbing the heaven and earth spirits and then transforming it into aura and power. However, everyone had a limited ability to absorb energy, and the Spirit Gathering Jade could help speed up the absorption process, thereby speeding up the cultivation. Not only that, but Spirit Gathering Jade could also purify the aura, so as to be close to heaven and earth’s spirits.

At once, everyone was awed and surprised by the appearance of this Spirit Gathering Jade.

The envious eyes cast around her, as well as the sound of discussion, greatly satisfied Zhen Kexin’s vanity. In the entire West Capital, only the Prime Minister’s estate could produce a treasure like the Spirit Gathering Jade!

Zhen Kexin used aura to slowly wrap up the Spirit Gathering Jade and let it float in front of her. Then, she condensed her body’s aura in her palm and injected it into the Spirit Gathering Jade. The light blue aura became extremely pure through the precipitation of the Spirit Gathering Jade.

The purified aura was injected into the sword, causing the sword to tremble slightly and buzz again. However, unlike before, this time’s buzzing sound was obviously clearer.

This phenomenon caused everyone to hold their breaths and wonder if Zhen Kexin could really pull out the sword.

However, as Zhen Kexin continued to inject the sword with the purification aura, the sword was like a bottomless hole. Besides buzzing, there was no other response.

Zhen Kexin’s triumphant complexion from the beginning gradually became difficult to look at. Her face gradually turned pale, and sweat beads gathered on her forehead, which was obviously a sign of exhaustion from using aura…

Seeing that Zhen Kexin’s aura was almost totally exhausted and the sword was not pulled out, the envious eyes from before lit up as they gloated inside.

“Sister, stop quickly!” Zhen Xueyan suddenly stood up and said towards Zhen Kexin.

Even if she was unwilling, Zhen Kexin had to give up. She stomped her foot in annoyance, her face showing her unwillingness. But when she thought of her sister who had higher power and would be able to pull out the sword smoothly, then she would have a chance to approach His Royal Highness Cloud King, right?

“Sister, with your strength and the Spirit Gathering Jade, you can certainly pull out the sword!” Zhen Kexin looked forward to it, her eyes sparkling as if she was seeing the scene of her being loved by His Royal Highness Cloud King…
