Chapter 579

Bu Jingyun had no intention of fighting for it, so how did he directly obtain the Absolute Sword?

"Give it to me... give me my family's treasured sword."

Even though Ao Jue was now bearing no light injuries at this moment, he still refused to give up the Absolute Sword.

His hands tapped rapidly, and countless streams of Severing-Meridian Sword Qi shot out.

The Wu Lingaoshou nearby were all hit, their meridians completely severed, and they died.

The remaining dozen or so streams of Sword Qi shot toward Bu Jingyun and Duan Lang.

"The Absolute Sword is in hand, let's go!"

Bu Jingyun casually slashed out with a sword, and this freshly forged Absolute Sword immediately displayed tremendous divine might.

Streams of Sword Qi shot out from the jet-black blade, clashing with Ao Jue's Severing-Meridian Sword Qi.

Then, without waiting to determine victory or defeat, Bu Jingyun said a word to Duan Lang, and the two ran toward the outside of Sword Worship Shanzhuang in unison.

"You took my sword and still want to leave!"

Ao Jue was furious; how could he let the Absolute Sword go, and immediately chased after them regardless of everything.

The three, one ahead and two behind, rapidly left Sword Worship Shanzhuang.

Just as the three had left, from within the Sword-Forging Furnace that had already become a pitch-black ruin, a jet-black figure suddenly walked out.

He held a treasured sword in both hands, looked around, and did not find Ao Jue's figure.

He could not help but ask the gathered Sword Worship Shanzhuang experts present,

"Eh? Canji, where is the Manor Lord?"

"Ah? You're Uncle Zhong?"

Canji had originally wanted to follow Ao Jue in pursuit, but her cultivation was insufficient.

Seeing this jet-black figure now, she recognized him at a glance—wasn't he the Ao family's swordsmith Zhong Mei from the Sword-Forging Furnace?

"Exactly! Where is the Manor Lord?"

Zhong Mei asked somewhat impatiently.

"He went to chase the Absolute Sword."

Canji replied, then pointed at the sword in Zhong Mei's hand and asked,

"What is this? Didn't you, Uncle Zhong, say that when the Absolute Sword is born, all the divine weapons in the Sword-Forging Furnace must be sacrificed?"

Those towering raging flames burned all the divine weapons, as well as the Sword-Forging Furnace.

How could there still be a sword in Zhong Mei's hand?

Could this be the true Absolute Sword, or was the Absolute Sword not successfully forged?

"This old man miscalculated."

Zhong Mei stamped his foot and said,

"Originally I thought, according to the ancestors' sword-forging essentials, this furnace could only forge one Absolute Sword."

"I never expected..."

"This is a second Absolute Sword?"

Canji found it somewhat inconceivable.

"No! This sword should be the Sword of Destruction—a sword that coexists in mutual restraint with the Absolute Sword."

"Compared to the Absolute Sword, this Sword of Destruction suits the Manor Lord even more!"

Zhong Mei could not help but smile wryly; in fact, what suited Ao Jue the most was the legendary Demon Sword Jue Jian.

It's just that the Jue Jian requires the fusion of many demonic weapons before it can be forged.

Ao Jue, for the sake of revenge, settled for the next best thing and prepared to forge the Absolute Sword.

Unfortunately, this time he actually forged one Absolute Sword, as well as a Sword of Destruction that was its equal.

It was truly beyond Zhong Mei's expectations!

"Then I'll go find my junior brother."

Hearing this, Canji immediately rushed toward the outside of the Shanzhuang.

Since the Sword of Destruction suited Ao Jue better, there was no need to go claim the Absolute Sword.

After all, the Qinglong Society is not easy to provoke!

Thinking this in her heart, she rushed out of the Shanzhuang and identified the direction.

She happened to see Sword Qi crisscrossing in the distance, fully assuming Ao Jue and Bu Jingyun were battling over there, and immediately rushed over excitedly.

"Junior brother, junior brother, you don't need to..."

Rushing nearby and taking a careful look, it turned out to be a group of You Dongying samurai comparing swords, where were the figures of Ao Jue and Bu Jingyun.

394 Beautiful lady, why are you in such a hurry to leave?

Canji felt something was wrong—how could these You Dongying samurai be comparing swords near Sword Worship Shanzhuang?

Without thinking, she immediately turned and prepared to return to Sword Worship Shanzhuang.

The moment she turned around, she saw a You Dongying person had already stood behind her.

"What a beautiful Western Regions lady! Beautiful lady, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"

Canji sensed something was wrong and did not reply to him, then flung out a short sword, stabbing straight at the vital acupoint on this person's chest.

At the same time her figure moved, she sidestepped around this person and headed toward Sword Worship Shanzhuang.

"How vicious!"

This person flicked a finger, which happened to strike the short sword, directly shattering the short sword into fragments.

Then, though acting later, he arrived first, closely following Canji.

"Who exactly are you? I am a disciple of Sword Worship Shanzhuang; if you are rude to me, Manor Lord Ao will not let you off."

Canji tried several times to break free.

But this person was slippery as a loach, somehow keeping up the pursuit without letting go, sticking to Canji like glue.

With no other choice, Canji could only invoke Seeing Ao Jue's name.

After all, Seeing Ao Jue was a master on the Heavenly Dao Gold List, one of the few top experts under heaven.

Added to that, his identity as someone who had crossed the Heart-Losing River, ordinary small factions wouldn't dare provoke him at all.

"Hehe! I am You Dongying's Chongba, and I have come here specifically to see the Master of the Manor."

With a strange laugh, Chongba waited until Canji was almost at Sword Worship Manor and was about to shout for help.

His speed suddenly surged, and he appeared right behind Canji in an instant, striking a palm onto her vital acupoint.

At that moment, the people of Sword Worship Manor happened to see Chongba restraining Canji and were just about to come rescue her.

Then they saw dozens of You Dongying samurai appear out of nowhere, clashing head-on with these Sword Worship Manor experts.

"Little beauty, come away with me!"

Chongba let out a strange laugh, took Canji, and swaggered off right under the noses of everyone from Sword Worship Manor.

Apart from Seeing Ao Jue, Sword Worship Manor had no shortage of experts of its own.

After a fierce bout with the You Dongying samurai and cutting down several of them, they found the remaining You Dongying samurai immediately retreating.

At this moment Zhong Mei frowned, holding the Sword of Defeat in his hand, unable to fathom why these You Dongying samurai had to kidnap Canji.

"Master Zhong, should we inform the Master of the Manor?"

An expert of Sword Worship Manor asked Zhong Mei anxiously.

"This old man keeps feeling there's something strange about all this."

"Canji's cultivation is ordinary, and she has no notable reputation in the jianghu."

"She's not on the Heavenly Dao Gold List, nor on the Hundred Flowers List — why would these You Dongying people want to kidnap her?"

Zhong Mei racked his brains but couldn't figure it out.

The You Dongying people had clearly come prepared this time, but what value could Canji possibly have?

"But Canji is the Manor Master's junior sister. After that catastrophe back then, only the Manor Master and she escaped."

"On ordinary days, the Manor Master values Canji above all."

One of the manor's experts said.

"So that's how it is."

Hearing this man's words, Zhong Mei caught on, clapped his hands together,

"These people's target is precisely the Manor Master…"

"What target?"
