Chapter 40: After Daji Comes Lady Xi, Horse Hunters by the Banks of the Luoshui River
After the Cheng Ying Sword was suppressed by the Qiankun Ring, it became exceptionally slippery, seizing an opportunity to dart out again, heading straight for Li Mingzhu.
Though the Sword Qi was vast and murderous in aura, it carried no true killing intent. Li Mingzhu realized it bore him no malice.
It was merely venting grievances, like a child waiting after school for their parents but being left to wait for two whole hours. Its frustration was imaginable.
Li Mingzhu understood this was precisely the situation now. The Cheng Ying Sword had been guiding him all along, yet he had come so late!
Sensing the sword's minor tantrum, Li Mingzhu could only smile helplessly. What could he do? In the end, it was a miraculous inspiration that brought him here. Otherwise, he might never have found it.
