Chapter 954: Mark (1)
Just now, Xu Bai had already learned about the specific situation from Qin Feng.
However, how to deal with it would depend on the next step.
He was not far from the main hall. This was the largest building. When he came to the door, he found that the two disciples guarding the door silently made way for him.
“Please!”
One of the so-called disciples stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation. However, Xu Bai could see that the smile on this guy’s face was obvious.
The corner of Xu Bai’s mouth twitched slightly. Then, he sighed and walked forward. Not long after, he reached the door and knocked on it.
“Enter.”
A voice came from the room. Although it was a female voice, it carried a sense of majesty that made people unable to look straight at it.
The sect master of the Ancient Moon Sword Sect had an extremely high status and was in charge of such a large force. People like him who had been in power for a long time did not need to learn from them. They only needed to subtly influence them and they would be able to have such an imposing manner.
Xu Bai took a deep breath, pushed the door open, and walked in.
The space behind the door was huge. Looking from here, there was a red carpet all the way to the end.
Outside the red carpet, there were exquisitely carved bluestone bricks.
At the end of the red carpet was a huge throne. The throne was inlaid with various gems and looked extremely luxurious.
At the top of the throne was a sword.
This was an ordinary iron sword. Its shape was not exaggerated, and it belonged to the kind that no one would look at if it was thrown anywhere. However, when it was inserted into the throne, it imperceptibly increased the power of this sword.
These were not the most important things. The most important thing was the person sitting on the throne.
A woman in her thirties was dressed in a man’s attire.
Although the woman was in her thirties, she was extremely beautiful. The man’s attire did not stand out on her, but instead made her look like a sharp sword.
Seeing Xu Bai come in, the woman waved her hand. A sharp sword aura bypassed Xu Bai and closed the door behind her.
The sword qi was originally an offensive weapon, but in the woman’s hands, it was like an arm controlling it. Even when it hit the door, it did not cause any damage. This control was already shocking.
Seeing this, Xu Bai took two steps forward and folded his hands.”Junior Xu Bai greets Sect Master.”
Gu Yue Sword Sect’s Sect Master Gu Yao’s eyes were cold. After seeing Xu Bai’s actions, she chuckled.
Her laughter was cold, as if she was unhappy to see Xu Bai.
“The dignified Prince Xu actually saluted me, this is too unreasonable. If word of this spreads in the pugilistic world, it will probably come to curse my Ancient Moon Sword Sect.”Gu Yao’s words were filled with ridicule.
” Sect Master,” Xu Bai put down his hand helplessly,” I already know why you’re hostile to me. But I’m here for something urgent.””
Xu Bai explained his purpose.
Gu Yao’s eyes were calm as Xu Bai spoke. When Xu Bai finished speaking, she suddenly raised her right hand.
The iron sword stuck in the throne followed her movements and left the throne, falling into her right hand.
The iron sword trembled slightly and emitted a clear sound. It did not seem like a dead object, but rather like a living thing.
“Good stuff.” Even if Xu Bai didn’t care much about artifacts, he could see that this iron sword wasn’t as ordinary as it looked.
“Of course it’s a good sword. It’s passed down from a distant era.”” A sword that can cut through space.” Gu Yao wiped the blade with her finger.” It’s a seventh-grade Saint artifact, and it’s not a one-time use.”
“Hiss…” Xu Bai gasped.
A Seventh Grade Saint might not be as powerful as a Ninth Grade Saint, but it was a treasure, and not a one-time use treasure.
There were very few treasures in the world, let alone saint treasures.
It could be said that with this sword, the Gu Yue Sword Sect’s foundation as a top force would not waver.
Xu Bai rolled his eyes. He could also tell that Gu Yao seemed to be waiting for him to speak. He took a few steps forward and said with a smile,”Sect Master, can I use it?”
Gu Yao shook her iron sword, and the sound from the sword became clearer.””This sword is the foundation of my Ancient Moon Sword Sect. After using it once, it will take a month to use it again.”
“Moreover, due to the special characteristics of this sword space, even if a Ninth Grade Saint comes, I can use it to escape. So, with such a sword, what reason do you have for me to help you?”
The smile on Xu Bai’s face did not change. He had already heard it. Since he could communicate with him, it was not that there was no way. It just depended on whether he could communicate with him.
If he could convince Eunuch Wei, everything would be fine. If he couldn’t, he could go back to Eunuch Wei and think of other ways.
However, Xu Bai knew that this trip would probably succeed.
Seeing that Xu Bai was still able to maintain his smile, the coldness in Gu Yao’s eyes became even more obvious. She inserted her sword back into the throne and waved her sleeves,””You can go. I don’t want to lend it to you.”
“Sect Master, I already know what’s going on, but things have to be resolved, right?” Xu Bai did not take a step back.”
When he said this, Gu Yao’s aura changed. She originally looked like a sword hidden in a scabbard, but now she was like a sharp sword unsheathed.
