Xiang Sizi.
The red bean, which can be used medicinally.
Ye Yu was very curious and didn’t understand why the little girl suddenly wanted to state her name clearly.
The next moment,
the Feathered Butterfly Sword stored in his ring began to tremble violently.
Ye Yu instinctively drew it out.
At the same time, the girl named Xiang Sizi closed her eyes tightly and opened her arms.
Her figure began to transform into sparkling starlight, attaching itself to the Feathered Butterfly Sword.
The next moment,
all the piercing sword aura in this secret realm rapidly converged like a tidal wave.
The Feathered Butterfly Sword started shaking wildly.
Its originally black blade slowly began turning red.
Within mere breaths,
the high-grade spiritual weapon completed a triple leap in rank, directly evolving into a high-grade immortal weapon.
The sword blade was wrapped in piercing sword aura, giving a sharp and prominent impression.
Ye Yu could not help but widen his eyes—such a transformation was truly surprising!
Soon, the figure of a young girl appeared.
She looked about seventeen or eighteen years old.
Tall and slender, nearly eye-to-eye with Ye Yu.
From her brows and eyes, one could vaguely see a resemblance to the little girl from before.
She held the Feathered Butterfly Sword with both hands, presenting it to Ye Yu.
Then she began to tell her story.
She was Xiang Sizi, the sword spirit of the broken sword.
Shortly after gaining consciousness,
Xiang Sizi’s master, Immortal King Liuying, was severely injured and near death.
Even the immortal sword broke at that time.
Unwilling to see Xiang Sizi disappear, Liuying used her last bit of immortal power
to preserve this sword spirit
and taught her to open this secret realm.
She told Xiang Sizi
that she was going to a very distant place, and when the broken sword was reforged, she would return to take her out.
But if she never came back,
it meant she possibly could not return.
The illusions here were designed by Xiang Sizi herself.
If someone could break through successfully, it meant they could become her new master.
No need to wait for Liuying anymore!
After saying this, Liuying’s figure completely vanished.
At that moment, Xiang Sizi had already guessed the truth.
But she was unwilling to face reality,
so for three hundred thousand years, she kept trying to piece the broken sword together.
If Ye Yu hadn’t come to awaken her,
Xiang Sizi might have endlessly repeated this cycle,
until in tens of thousands of years, her immortal power was exhausted, and she and the secret realm would vanish together from the Heavenly Realm.
Xiang Sizi finally accepted it.
Liuying’s “deception” was meant to let her live well.
If so, why not follow fate?
By agreement, Ye Yu had broken through the illusions,
so naturally, he could become Xiang Sizi’s master.
Thus the current scene unfolded.
After hearing this tale, Ye Yu instantly understood everything.
However, Xiang Sizi’s sudden growth still puzzled him.
How was she just four or five years old moments ago, and now she looked seventeen or eighteen?
For this doubt, Xiang Sizi gave a straightforward explanation.
Her growth depended on the sword’s condition.
The immortal power on the broken sword had almost completely dissipated,
so Xiang Sizi had only grown to a four or five-year-old state and stopped growing.
Though the Feathered Butterfly Sword was lower grade, its condition was intact.
With the infusion of Xiang Sizi’s sword spirit, the two complemented each other.
Naturally, she had grown quite a bit.
But this was not the end—once Xiang Sizi and the Feathered Butterfly Sword reached 100% synchronization,
Xiang Sizi would grow again,
and the Feathered Butterfly Sword would improve by one quality tier.
This was truly impressive.
Unexpectedly, by chance, entering this secret realm
he had gained such a great opportunity.
It was truly beyond Ye Yu’s expectations.
Yet before he could speak,
the entire palace suddenly shook violently.
Ye Yu was very curious and hurriedly asked, “What’s happening?”
Xiang Sizi pointed to the broken sword and said, “That broken sword is the key to supporting the secret realm’s operation.
Now that I’m leaving, the immortal power on it is about to run out.
The secret realm can no longer be sustained and will soon collapse.
Master, we should leave quickly!”
Ye ◆ Nоvеlіgһt ◆ (Only on Nоvеlіgһt) Yu nodded, took up the Feathered Butterfly Sword, and swiftly sped outside.
After leaving the palace,
the sword immortals trapped in the illusions gradually awoke,
including Lin Miaoxue!
She had already successfully passed the first trial, the Phantom Square Formation, and was negotiating with a nameless swordsman in the second trial.
Unexpectedly, suddenly all the images shattered.
When she opened her eyes,
she saw Ye Yu hovering in the air.
Lin Miaoxue was both shocked and delighted but dared not move an inch,
fearing to break the illusion.
Indeed,
Lin Miaoxue instinctively thought that her strong longing had caused her to see her husband in the illusion.
But why was there also a young girl next to him?
A new sister?
While deep in thought,
Ye Yu suddenly descended, grabbing her.
Then, lightly tapping his toes, he transformed into sword light and flew out of the secret realm directly,
leaving behind a sorrowful sword immortal, her face clearly marked with a footprint.
Brother, to be honest,
this is quite an insult.
Bringing a girl is one thing, but two girls?
Two girls is fine, no complaints there.
But that kick before leaving—
truly unexpected!
Above the Shuoping Mountain Range,
Ye Yu rushed out of the secret realm entrance with Lin Miaoxue.
Only when he saw the soft outside scenery
did Lin Miaoxue realize this was probably not an illusion.
Her whole body immediately became excited.
“Husband, how did you find me?”
Hearing this, Ye Yu’s face became strange,
and he couldn’t help but laugh, “Because of a cow, a magical cow.”
Lin Miaoxue was somewhat puzzled but didn’t care.
What mattered most was she had found her husband!
She tightly held Ye Yu’s arm and curiously looked at Xiang Sizi.
“A new sister?”
“Sword spirit, Xiang Sizi!”
Xiang Sizi looked at Lin Miaoxue softly.
In fact, she had been paying attention since Lin Miaoxue entered the secret realm.
After all, the Immaculate Sword Heart was very rare!
Ye Yu looked around continuously, searching for Ban Xia’s figure, but could not find her anywhere.
Huh, where did this immortal go?
The deal was done, and you were ready to pay the final sum—why did you disappear?
Is there really such a good person in the world?
At this moment, Li Zhiyin from the Lichen Sword Sect quickly approached after seeing Lin Miaoxue come out.
“Immortal Lin, you came out so soon?
Elder Sang said she went out on urgent business and can’t return yet, so she asked you to wait at the Immortal Gate.”
Hearing this, Lin Miaoxue shook her head with a smile.
“I just found my husband. Please tell the master that I won’t return for now.
After settling with my husband, I will go see the master.”
Meanwhile,
Sang Liuhe had already arrived in the central Heavenly Realm, heading toward the Wuwei Tower.
