Chapter 1379 Though living in the martial world, my mother dislikes fighting and killing.
Xu Shan was startled. What kind of knife has words on it?
He moved to Azhen's side first, his eyes fixed on the Heaven-Asking Blade. Sure enough, many characters and some strange patterns appeared on the blade.
"Could this be the weapon that Master told me was forged using a special method?" Azhen murmured, adding, "I heard that if you forge a weapon using a certain method and inscribe words on it, all the words and patterns will disappear when it cools down. Even if you reheat it, you won't be able to see them; you have to get blood on it while it's being heated."
Xu Shan listened in a daze, but did not doubt Azhen's words at all.
Azhen's words weren't entirely untrue; there were indeed all sorts of magical forging methods in the martial arts world. Otherwise, how could the Heavenly Blade have such a secret hidden within it?
She told Xu Shan this only to prepare for altering the writing and patterns on the Heavenly Blade later. It's worth mentioning that she knew this, and her mysterious master likely taught her this skill as well.
The secret hidden within the Heavenly Blade is not only a secluded paradise, but also the accumulated wealth of the Xu family ancestors. Even if she wanted to ambush someone, choosing that place would be a waste, and she would never allow it to benefit others.
These are all the wishes of the client, and she will certainly help to fulfill them.
Therefore, she would have to find another place.
There are many places in the martial arts world that clients find repulsive; now she needs to consider which place to choose.
Xu Shan's mind was now completely captivated by the secrets revealed by the Heavenly Asking Blade. As the user of the Heavenly Asking Blade, he had no idea that such a secret was hidden within it.
Could it be... that the Heavenly Blade is really related to the Heavenly Question?
Just as he was about to pick up the knife to examine it, he suddenly felt a gaze from the side. He gave an embarrassed smile, placed the slice of meat off the Ganjiang knife on clean leaves, and then wiped the blade clean before examining it.
"Father, could it be that our family's knife is really related to the Heavenly Questions?" A-Zhou asked, feigning curiosity as she leaned closer.
At this moment, Xu Shan had already read through the contents of the knife. He said, "No, it has nothing to do with the Heavenly Questions. This is a secret of my Xu ancestors. I never thought that my Xu family ancestors had such an experience."
It turns out that in the chaotic world long ago, the Xu family was actually a powerful local lord, and even had the ability to compete for the world.
However, it was still a little short. Given the circumstances at the time, the Xu family would either be defeated or surrender, neither of which would end well. So the Xu family hid some of their wealth and left a secluded paradise for their descendants.
It not only holds more stories about the Xu family, but also preserves much lost history.
In retrospect, the Xu family ancestors' actions were quite far-sighted; otherwise, Xu Shan, as a descendant, would never have known that the Xu family had once been so glorious.
"It seems that the things left by our ancestors and that place are not simple. If they are exposed, there will probably be another conflict."
"Father, this secret cannot be told to anyone right now."
"Even Mother and Senior Brother can't be told. It's not that I don't trust them, but the more people who know, the greater the risk, and it's not good for them either."
“Once I become an unparalleled martial arts master, invincible in the world, then you can talk about it,” A-Zhan added.
These words amused Xu Shan: "Alright, I'll wait for you to become the most powerful martial arts master in the world, so that no one will dare to provoke you."
“Indeed, I cannot say.” Xu Shan’s expression turned serious, and he looked at the Heaven-Asking Blade with a conflicted expression. “But if the secret on this blade is accidentally discovered, it could lead to a major disaster.”
"Why don't you teach me how to do it? My master has taught me a lot and mentioned this forging method. When I get back, I'll see if I can modify the content on it. It's probably not easy to completely erase it, but I should be able to modify the original content."
Having heard what A-Zhuang had said at the beginning, Xu Shan was curious about who A-Zhuang's master was, but he did not doubt that she had the ability.
"You silly girl, were you grilling rabbit slices like that earlier to see if the Heavenly Blade had any secrets?" Xu Shan suddenly asked.
Azhen remained calm and readily admitted, "I just remembered what Master said before, so I decided to give it a try. I didn't expect it to actually work." Xu Shan sighed, marveling at her luck.
“Since it’s something from our ancestors, we’ll have to see it when we have the chance. We’ll have to figure out how to use it then. Judging from the Heaven-Asking Blade, it must contain a lot of history from the past.” Xu Shan added, “If we have the chance, it would be nice to put these things out in the open.”
Azhen was surprised that Xu Shan had thought of all this. It has to be said that Xu Shan is a true hero, acting with integrity and uprightness.
Unfortunately, she's a little bit love-struck.
But she felt there was still some hope.
At least after she reminded them, the other party was able to quickly understand the pros and cons involved.
Once the blade had completely cooled down, the writing and patterns on it had completely disappeared, and Xu Shan breathed a sigh of relief.
There's no need to worry for now. Rumors are circulating in the martial arts world that the father and daughter are dead, so no one is coming to steal the Heaven-Asking Blade.
Once the news of their survival spreads, it will be time for the family to reunite. At that time, Zhen'er can modify the contents of the Heavenly Blade, so that even if the Heavenly Blade accidentally falls into the hands of others in the future, there will be no need to worry about the secrets hidden by the Xu family's ancestors being exposed.
Xu Shan didn't fall asleep until midnight that night.
As soon as it got light, the sun shone brightly, and the sky was completely clear.
Azhen and Xu Shan didn't linger and immediately headed towards the Yan family.
When he arrived at the Yan family's residence, he didn't immediately show himself. He originally wanted to go straight in, but Azhen stopped him, saying it would be better to inquire first. After all, they didn't know if Yi Xiaolan had returned yet. If she hadn't, and news of their survival got out first, trouble would likely come knocking first.
Upon inquiring, it was discovered that Yi Xiaolan had not returned and was lingering at Peach Blossom Manor.
Not only that, just the day before yesterday, Xin Shun and Chu Yanzhi also went to Peach Blossom Manor.
It is said that the bodies of Xu Shan and his daughter have been found. Due to the severe decomposition of the bodies, it is inconvenient to move them. Yi Xiaolan has decided to hold a funeral for them at Peach Blossom Manor and will temporarily place the coffins outside the manor.
The speaker also praised Shen Linsu, the owner of Peach Blossom Manor, and mentioned that he might have done this favor because Shen Miao was his sister.
I heard that people who are on good terms with Xu Shan have already gone to Peach Blossom Manor.
"Zhen'er, how could this be so outrageous?" Xu Shan was shocked. These past few days, they had been traveling diligently, but they never expected so many things to happen, and even the bodies of the father and daughter had been found.
Azhen was also a little surprised. She had only made up a story, but she didn't expect someone to come up with a plausible explanation. It was indeed quite outrageous.
Who will be the one to bring the story to a close?
Are they so sure that the father and daughter are dead?
“It’s not such a coincidence. I always feel there’s some unknown secret hidden here,” Xu Shan said.
Xu Shan chuckled again: "Then let's go attend our own funeral and see what kind of conspiracy is behind it."
Azhen was naturally happy to go and watch the excitement.
I knew there would be some excitement if I showed up later, but I didn't expect it to be this exciting. (End of Chapter)
