Seeing what Suyin brought out, Jian Shen frowned a little and began observing the item in her hands.
It was a scroll which was rolled and tied with a ribbon.
Given the huge amount of dust covering it, Jian Shen guessed that the scroll's original colour wasn't brown but maybe sothing else.
Also, it was barely visible but Jian Shen could see a symbol drawn on the end of the scroll.
A dragon eating its own tail.
Having never seen such a symbol, Jian Shen frowned even more because the way it looked wasn't sothing which belonged to the weak forces.
But at the sa ti, Jian Shen knew of no string force that had such a symbol.
Not the Five Great Sects or the Two Empires which were at the apex of the Wu Yun Continent had this particular symbol.
So whom did it belong to?
Filled with curiosity Jian Shen unconsciously stretched his hand towards Suyin who was just a little farther away from his hand's reach.
Turning a little flustered for a second, Suyin quickly recovered from seeing that it wasn't her body which Jian Shen's hand was trying to reach. It was the scroll in her hand.
Despite feeling a little disappointed from seeing Jian Shen pay more attention to the scroll than her body, Suyin felt that her bet had paid off.
Given how attracted Jian Shen seed towards the scroll, it was almost guaranteed for him to take her with him.
Taking the scroll into his hands, Jian Shen took so ti to observe the red coloured dragons symbol first.
'Do you know what this is, little wifey?'
Having switched with Qingyu to protect Jian Shen while she trains Wei Yan, Juewang said, "I've never seen that symbol before. But given how old the scroll is, and the details on the image, I'd have to guess that this scroll belongs to so powerful force that existed a long ti back."
Feeling even more curious, Jian Shen slowly opened the scroll while making sure that he didn't tear it by mistake.
Unwrapping the tied ribbon and letting it fly away with the wind, Jian Shen opened the scroll to reveal what was inside it.
'The Sword World's map...? What the hell is the Sword World?'
"That I know!"
Finally sothing she knew about, puffing her chest with pride inside the realm she alone existed due to Qingyu's absence Juewang continued speaking.
"The Sword World is a special place which exists solely inside the Mortal Realm. It's a place filled with an uncountable number of swords who have a sword Spirit each."
"Entering the Sword World is the sa as entering a trial and the farther you clear it the more benefits you obtain from it."
"Throughout the ages there has always been a rumour that the Sword World exists due to one very powerful sword being at the centre of it."
"And if this map in your hand is correct, it shows you the way to reach that special sword."
'Oh.'
Jian Shen might not have been particularly stunned from learning this piece of news, but if it was anyone else who knew about the existence of the Sword World beforehand they would've been completely shocked to the core.
In fact, if Li Suyin hadn't taken this map away from the royal family's treasury when she was very young and allowed soone else to find it, the entire Mortal Realm would be in a completely different state right now.
After all, if soone like Li Qiao had found this map he would've tried to obtain that sword and used it to rule the entire Mortal Realm.
That was how strong the infamous sword which created and controlled the Sword World was.
"You don't seem to understand how great the Sword World is, husband."
'Tell .'
"Didn't I tell you that the Sword World is like a trial and the more you clear it, the better the rewards you obtain are."
"The rewards you obtain are comprehension on the Path of Sword."
"The more Sword Spirits you defeat the more your comprehension increases about the Sword Qi."
'Really?!'
Finally excited from hearing about how truly great the Sword World was, Jian Shen after observing the entire map stored it inside the World Crest.
Looking towards Suyin who had been patiently waiting the whole ti, Jian Shen asked, "Where did you find this?"
"Does that an that you're going to take with you?"
Nodding his head, Jian Shen once again asked the sa question, "Where did you find this?"
"It was inside the vault which my father values more than anything else."
"Did that vault have the sa red coloured dragon eating its tail?"
"Yes."
"And you have no idea what that symbol represents, do you?"
"No."
Sighing from how it seed like that would remain a mystery for the ti being, Jian Shen was about to take her away when Suyin asked him, "Do you know what that symbol is?"
"Oh ? No idea."
Not bothered at all from speaking the truth, Jian Shen didn't try to show off by claiming he knew sothing about the red dragon swallowing its own tail.
Surprised from how easily Jian Shen said those words, Suyin felt that other than just travelling around she'd be able to find sothing special along the journey.
"Now don't resist what I'm going to do, it's going to blow your head off!."
Saying so Jian Shen didn't bother to explain his very misleading and ambiguous sounding words before using his control over the World Crest to take Suyin inside it.
