Chapter 241: Chapter 241: It Ate All My Swords?! Chapter 241: Chapter 241: It Ate All My Swords?! As soon as Scarlett Jennings said this, everyone present was taken aback.
Gregory Xander even shot up from his seat, “Impossible!”
To Gregory Xander’s reaction, Scarlett rely glanced over indifferently, “Nothing is impossible.”
Her advantage over Gregory Xander lay in her eyes’ ability to see things they couldn’t.
For instance, even through a screen, she could clearly see the nearly ford Evil Spirit faintly swirling around the broken sword.
The collector on the other end of the livestream was startled by Scarlett Jennings’ words, casting an incredulous look at his collection of broken swords.
“Young master, the Sword Spirit you’re talking about, is it the kind from those immortal cultivation novels?”
As he spoke, an involuntary expression of joy appeared on his face, “Could it be that my place is so kind of treasure land where spiritual energy gathers?”
Did the originally unremarkable broken sword grow a Sword Spirit after entering his collection room?
The collector wasn’t as concerned about the destruction of his many collections.
Scarlett Jennings looked at the inexplicably excited collector and didn’t quite understand his excitent, but it didn’t stop her from answering.
“In a way, your collection room is indeed a treasure land for this sword.”
The collector grew even more excited at her words, only to hear Scarlett Jennings explain calmly,
“Generally, the conditions for the birth of a Sword Spirit are extrely stringent. Nowadays, it’s almost impossible to develop a Sword Spirit. But this broken sword is unique.”
“From its blade, it’s accumulated at least a thousand years of Evil Qi. Swords like this usually bring death or harm to their collectors due to the Evil Qi. You and its previous owner being unhard is primarily because it beca a broken sword.”
“When any sharp weapon breaks, its power is significantly reduced. The opportunity for this sword to develop a Sword Spirit ended when it broke. However, it unexpectedly entered your collection room, surrounded by so much Sword Energy…”
Scarlett Jennings paused here montarily, then provided a relatively easier-to-understand analogy.
“It’s like a starving weasel locked in a chicken coop full of chickens…”
The collector, originally a little smug, was dumbfounded at Scarlett Jennings’ words.
“You, you an it ate all my swords?!”
So it wasn’t his collection room gathering the nature’s spiritual energy, but rather the treasures in his collection room that naturally carried spiritual energy…
The livestream audience, who were listening with great interest, couldn’t help but be floored by the analogy.
[“Wow, the imagery instantly ca to life!”]
[“Girl, you sure know your taphors.”]
[“Biggest piece of bad news today: a collector’s chickens all died!”]
[“They all rusted, so they all died.”]
[“I see it as a big tree growing and instinctively drawing nutrients from the surrounding soil.”]
[“Anyway, I sympathize with the collector for a second.”]
Scarlett Jennings also looked at the comnts in the livestream and happened to see the tree taphor. She nodded in agreent,
“This comnt is also apt. The older the swords, the more Sword Energy they naturally possess. This Sword Qi keeps them sharp through the passage of ti.
This Sword Energy can be seen as their nourishnt. So you can understand that your entire collection was drained of its nourishnt by it, leading to everything rusting overnight.”
[“Wow, this feels like raising a Gu King.”]
The owner of the nad comnt was even more thrilled.
[“Aaaah, the girl ntioned by na and praised !”]
[“I always thought she focused on helping people. Didn’t expect her to pay attention to the comnts! If I’d known, I wouldn’t have just typed ‘wtf’!”]
[“Hahaha, alas, I’m uneducated, and ‘wtf’ gets through life!”]
The topics in the livestream comnts started to drift away slowly.
On the other end of the livestream, the collector looked as if he could cry at any mont. Although he was prepared for significant losses, the truth was still heartbreaking.
Those were his collections of over twenty years!
Collected bit by bit across the country for over twenty years.
Eaten like young chickens!
His excitent about having developed a Sword Spirit dissipated greatly.
He began to console himself.
“Okay, at least I cultivated a Sword Spirit, haha…”
The collector tried to laugh to show his magnanimity, but his smile looked more painful than crying.
Once again, the livestream audience offered various comforts.
Well, at least you nurtured a Sword Spirit. How remarkable.
That alone is comparable to the twenty-plus years of previous collections.
Scarlett Jennings saw the comnts and the collector’s self-consolation, pursing her lips as if hesitating whether to speak.
Before she could open her mouth, Gregory Xander spoke up.
He bluntly poured cold water over everyone.
“If this broken sword truly developed a Sword Spirit as she said, you won’t be able to keep it.”
The other guests turned their heads at his words, only to hear him say coldly;
“A sword with a Sword Spirit cannot be controlled by ordinary people, especially not one with an inherent Evil Qi. If you can’t control it, it will harm its owner.”
The collector looked as if he had been doused with cold water, his face turning pale and unconsciously looked towards Scarlett Jennings.
“Young master, is what he said true? What should I do? It won’t take as a sacrifice to the sword, right?”
As he spoke, he unconsciously took several steps back with his phone.
Any thoughts of coveting it vanished in an instant.
Scarlett Jennings looked at the collector on the other end of the screen. This ti, she didn’t refute Gregory Xander’s words and instead nodded.
“He’s right. The Sword Spirit initially ford by absorbing Sword Energy, and it will automatically absorb anything with Sword Energy around you in the future. If you wish to sustain it, you must continue collecting more items.”
Scarlett Jennings continued, her expression turning slightly solemn, “But I don’t recomnd keeping it, because if you can’t ensure its future supply, it’s quite possible it’ll turn against you and harm you.”
This is essentially the sa principle as raising a Wicked God.
Don’t expect a Sword Spirit to reason with you. A Sword Spirit tainted with Evil Qi naturally has a violent nature and is difficult to control.
Scarlett Jennings and Gregory Xander’s opinions were straightforward and clear.
The collector balked at the notion of having to continue collecting swords for it to absorb, promptly abandoning any thoughts.
Good collections are already hard to co by, let alone having to hand them over to be ruined by the sword.
That’s truly intolerable for a sword collector.
Thinking of this, the collector quickly made up his mind, “Since the young master said I can’t keep it, I won’t keep it. What should I do with this thing?”
He figured ordinary disposal thods wouldn’t work.
Instinctively, he sought Scarlett Jennings’ help.
“If you’ve decided not to keep it, I can have soone co and take it away for disposal.”
Scarlett Jennings said as she was about to take out her phone to arrange a courier to pick it up.
