131: Refining Holy Weapons
It wasn't just Chu Chen; even Tang Mei and the Holy Lord felt that Xiao Qianyu couldn't control the Lingxiao Sword.
Especially the Holy Lord, as the Lingxiao Sword was once his weapon, he had the most say.
He obtained it when he was in the Saint Realm, and even then, it took him a great deal of effort to subdue the spirit within it.
Moreover, Xiao Qianyu was only in the King Sealing Realm; to use a Saint Weapon, one would at least need a Quasi-Supreme cultivation!
Even with Quasi-Supreme cultivation, one couldn't control a Saint Weapon for too long, at most unleashing one or two killing moves.
As long as Chu Chen could block it, Xiao Qianyu would fail due to spiritual energy depletion.
Xiao Qianyu didn't doubt it; Su Xuan said she could use it, so she could, even though she had no clue how at the moment.
“System, how much Villain Value does it cost to let Xiao Qianyu control the Lingxiao Sword?”
“Ding! The Lingxiao Sword is a Low Grade Saint Weapon. To completely refine it, it will cost 5,000,000 Villain Value!”
“Too expensive, next time for sure. Can I get a limited-time version?”
“If it's for temporary control, it's 100,000 Villain Value per hour, or 1,000,000 Villain Value per day!”
“Then temporarily refine it for an hour!”
An hour should be enough; Chu Chen was only in the Feng Huang Realm, and his equipment had already been shattered by him.
Xiao Qianyu would definitely be enough to take down Chu Chen within an hour.
As Su Xuan's words fell, the Lingxiao Sword in Xiao Qianyu's hand suddenly trembled violently.
Xiao Qianyu firmly gripped the Lingxiao Sword. As the sword body vibrated, a majestic and ancient Aura surged forth, instantly sweeping the surroundings.
Xiao Qianyu's originally somewhat delicate figure now subtly exuded a sharp and imposing Aura.
Onlookers around the battlefield, feeling this immensely powerful pressure, all showed expressions of panic.
“How miraculous… What kind of power is this?”
Xiao Qianyu was utterly shocked.
Just a moment ago, she was completely clueless about the Lingxiao Sword in front of her, but in the next second, the Lingxiao Sword actively established a connection with her!
Moreover, she could feel that the Lingxiao Sword was establishing this connection with a desire to please her!
“This… Is this all my husband’s doing?”
Xiao Qianyu attributed all of this to Su Xuan, and her love for Su Xuan deepened in her heart.
“Ding! Detected that Xiao Qianyu’s favorability has broken through the limit, reaching 101 points, unprecedented! Congratulations to the Host for receiving a 1,000,000 Villain Value reward!”
“Ding! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a cultivation technique upgrade card x1, a realm upgrade card x1, and a Saint-Grade protective gear x1!”
“Holy crap! This amazing?”
Su Xuan was utterly shocked; he never expected Xiao Qianyu to break through the favorability limit for him at this moment!
101 points of favorability, unprecedented! Not even Zhao Rou, who was pregnant with his baby, could compare!
Not only that, Su Xuan also obtained a Saint-Grade protective gear, an item worth millions of Villain Value in the System Mall!
“How is this even possible? She can actually control a Saint Weapon?”
When Chu Chen saw the Lingxiao Sword resonating with Xiao Qianyu, he was dumbfounded, his jaw nearly dropping.
This was simply beyond his comprehension; how could a King Sealing Realm cultivator control a Saint Weapon?
Moreover, it seemed the Lingxiao Sword was actively trying to please Xiao Qianyu!
A Saint Weapon naturally had its own temperament. Weapons of this caliber already possessed spirits, and even more powerful spirits could even take human form.
Unless you could gain its recognition, you simply couldn't unleash its full power.
Generally, as the wielder of a Saint Weapon, you had to please it, but with Xiao Qianyu, it was actually the other way around!
“When did Xiao Qianyu become so powerful?”
Tang Mei was also greatly shocked; even she couldn't make a Saint Weapon actively please her, at most coexisting peacefully, yet Xiao Qianyu had managed it.
She had observed Xiao Qianyu before; while Xiao Qianyu had some talent, it wasn't to this ridiculous extent!
“Su Xuan’s women are indeed not simple!”
The Holy Lord watched this scene thoughtfully. The Lingxiao Sword was something he had given to Su Xuan, but he never expected it to be used by Xiao Qianyu.
And she even managed to make the Lingxiao Sword actively please her!
Even he, a Great Emperor, couldn't do it. With his Imperial might, he could make the Lingxiao Sword actively submit to him, but to make it please him…
He couldn't do that now either.
“Hehe, someone just said they’d eat that pile of crap. I wonder who said it!”
Su Xuan looked at Chu Chen with a mischievous smile.
“Indeed, indeed, we heard it too, Young Master Chu, please don't forget what you just said!”
“That’s right, Young Master Chu, a word once spoken cannot be unsaid. Young Master Chu must be honest and trustworthy!”
The onlookers also chimed in, some of them Disciples of Tianwu Holy Land, others rogue cultivators.
Hearing Chu Chen's arrogant words backfiring, they nearly burst out laughing and eagerly piled on.
“Hahahahaha! Old Man Chu, your genius isn’t up to par either. Not only was he beaten to a pulp, but now he’s forced to eat shit!”
The Head of the Li Family seized the opportunity to mock him.
The Family Head of Chu family's face turned green; he hadn't expected this outcome. How was Xiao Qianyu even more Heaven-Defying than Chu Chen?
Hearing the jeering from the crowd, Chu Chen’s face turned green. He had just spouted arrogant words, only to be slapped in the face at light speed.
What a humiliation! Simply a humiliation!
Ever since he awakened the Nine Nether Hell Body, he felt as if he had become a Protagonist.
He had always been the one to slap others' faces, never the other way around; everything he did went smoothly!
But now, in this very setting, he had suffered two setbacks! And both from the same person!
It was all Su Xuan; it must have been some wicked scheme by Su Xuan!
Although Chu Chen wasn't entirely sure, blaming Su Xuan was definitely the right move.
The Lingxiao Sword was his, and only he could have done it.
“Ding! The Host has successfully made the Destined Protagonist Chu Chen publicly humiliated, rewarding 100,000 Villain Value! Luck Value decreased by 10,000!”
“Ding! Detected that the Destined Protagonist Chu Chen has broken down, to the point of plasmolysis, rewarding 500,000 Villain Value! Luck Value decreased by 50,000!”
“Eat it! Young Master Chu! Hurry and eat it! What? Are you going back on your word?”
“Exactly, Young Master Chu, almost a minute has passed. What are you still hesitating for?”
“Young Master Chu, it’s too late to go back on your word now! Just eat it quickly! Hahahaha!”
“What? Is Young Master Chu afraid to take responsibility? Be careful, your little ‘thing’ might shrink!”
“Hahahaha! His is already small enough; if it shrinks further, won’t it disappear completely?”
The onlookers continued to egg him on.
