Chapter 305: 177 Dragon Scale Sword (Second Update)_2 Chapter 305: 177 Dragon Scale Sword (Second Update)_2 To maintain consciousness, Bai Ye bit through the tip of his tongue several tis. Finally, when the tip was riddled with wounds, the pain allowed him to remain lucid.
Just as he couldn’t help but feel despair, a refreshing coolness suddenly appeared in his Sea of Consciousness. Sothing spread throughout it, continually repairing his damaged Sea of Consciousness and gradually easing his pain.
The agony in his Sea of Consciousness grew less intense until he felt nothing at all. He was about to breathe a sigh of relief when a mysterious voice echoed, “From now on, you are the master of the Dragon Scale Sword, and you may practice the Supre Mysterious Golden Thunder Sword Dao.”
The voice didn’t sound human; it carried an ancient vicissitude that unsettled his mind upon hearing it.
After the voice spoke, Bai Ye ‘saw’ a black longsword within his Sea of Consciousness. This longsword, clearly the Dragon Scale Sword ntioned by the voice, was also the source of his intense suffering.
He couldn’t resist examining the sword more closely when it began to disintegrate before his eyes, turning into black characters one by one. Each character was enigmatic and sharp, at first glance resembling miniature longswords.
Gradually, the entire sword decomposed into enigmatic black characters that danced in the air before rging into a complete Cultivation Technique.
The Cultivation Technique was extensive. He instinctively tried to morize it in full, but after reading only the first volu, a heaviness overca his mind, and his eyes beca blurry and weary, unable to make out the subsequent text.
Then, all the characters converged, reforming into the black longsword.
If not for the additional text in his mind, Bai Ye would have doubted whether the whole scene had been a re hallucination!
The na ‘Supre Mysterious Golden Thunder Sword Dao’ alone exuded a fearso aura of slaughter. Bai Ye was no fool; he knew how terrifying a Cultivation Technique it was!
What luck had he stumbled upon to receive such a formidable legacy?
No, wait! If he hadn’t seen wrong before, the golden light that killed the Spiritual Zombie originated from Fang Yuxin! Did that an the sword was rightfully hers?
With this thought, Bai Ye felt as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over him. The joy from receiving a powerful inheritance vanished, leaving behind guilt towards Fang Yuxin and an inexplicable panic.
Had he stolen sothing ant for Fang Yuxin? With such implications, how would she view him now? Was his lingering affection still possible?
Bai Ye was fearless, but even during life-threatening missions, he had never felt such panic.
No, he must apologize to Fang Yuxin! To earn her forgiveness, he’d gladly return the legacy, even if it pained him to part with it.
Although it was difficult to let go, Bai Ye quickly set his resolve.
Then he discovered that his surroundings had changed; he was back in reality! Looking around, he saw Fang Yuxin and Fang Yu Yang standing a ter away, their expressions complex, while the Mutant Zombies earlier had been cleanly eliminated.
Seeing the complicated look on Fang Yuxin’s face, he felt a sting in his heart.
She still didn’t trust him.
Quickly managing his emotions, he prepared to return the Dragon Scale Sword to Fang Yuxin. But as he was about to produce the sword, he froze.
Where was the Dragon Scale Sword? He distinctly rembered holding it in his hand!
Upon careful consideration, he sensed sothing and realized that since he wasn’t strong enough to wield the Dragon Scale Sword, it had sealed itself within his body.
Unless the seal was lifted, even if he wanted to, he couldn’t return the Dragon Scale Sword to Fang Yuxin.
Bai Ye’s complexion turned ugly at this realization, knowing that even if he shared his intentions, she would likely not believe him.
Considering this, he beca hesitant, unsure how to explain things to her.
After much deliberation, he opened his mouth, his voice raspy, “Miss Fang, I don’t know why, but the Dragon Scale Sword seems to have chosen as its master. And since my strength is too weak, it has sealed itself—I can’t take it out. Rest assured, the mont the seal breaks, I will return it to you.”
He spoke with conviction as Fang Yuxin and Fang Yu Yang looked at him with complicated gazes. Fang Yuxin wasn’t sure if he was sincere, but she couldn’t help but feel a sense of comfort and asked, “What if I said I have a way to take it out, but it would consu your foundation and Essence Blood?”
She had no such ans; it was rely a probe.
As she finished, her eyes fixed intently on Bai Ye to gauge his reaction.
Bai Ye’s brows furrowed. In the post-apocalyptic world where strength was paramount, losing Essence Blood was one thing, but damaging his foundation would effectively render him worse off than an Ordinary Person!
He still had people to protect—if he did that…
After hesitating, he looked at Fang Yuxin and said, “If you insist on this, I agree, but not now. I must first ensure my teammates are safely back in North City. Their families are there; I cannot abandon them.”
As he made this solemn vow, a tearing pain filled his heart. If it were anyone else, he would never be so selfless, but since the sword belonged to Fang Yuxin, he could not bear to harm her and could only hurt himself instead.
Then, he heard Fang Yuxin say, “Since it chose you, you are its master. It’s your opportunity; you don’t need to return it to .”
Bai Ye looked at Fang Yuxin in surprise. In that mont, the pain in his heart vanished, replaced by a warm, continuous feeling.
