Chapter 25: Su Chen exposes the secrets of the Dragon-Slaying Saber and the Heaven-Reliant Sword

~6 min read 1,018 words

Tongfu Inn, main hall.

A profound silence.

Everyone was shocked by Su Chen’s words.

They had come with the intention of watching the spectacle, wanting to see how Su Chen would debate Bai Bai Xiaosheng.

Yet they never expected Su Chen to deliver a killing blow right from the start.

The *Weapon Registry* has always been renowned for encompassing every divine weapon in the Great Ming Jianghu.

But just now, Su Chen had reeled off over a dozen divine weapons in one breath.

The Longevity Sword, the Peacock Plume, the Jadeite Saber, the Parting Hook, the Overlord Spear, the Deer-Carving Saber...

Never mind Bai Bai Xiaosheng; everyone in the hall was left bewildered.

Although they had never even heard of some of these weapons.

But the way Su Chen spoke with such certainty made it feel formidable, even if they didn't understand why.

……

By the northwest window.

Chi Lian Xing’s beautiful eyes shifted, and she smiled bitterly: "Of the weapons Mr. Su mentioned, I only know of the Heaven-Reliant Divine Sword."

As the Second Palace Mistress of the Flower-Relocating Palace, Chi Lian Xing also held a resounding reputation in the Jianghu.

But in front of Su Chen.

She felt as simple as a blank sheet of paper.

"I once saw a record of the Peacock Plume in an ancient text."

"This Peacock Plume should be a hidden weapon that shook the Jianghu hundreds of years ago."

"But it vanished a century ago, and its legend has long since ceased in the Jianghu."

"I never expected Mr. Su to know it like the back of his hand."

Yao Yao Yue said, lost in thought.

Chi Lian Xing was startled upon hearing this.

"The Peacock Plume actually exists, and its power is infinite."

"Doesn't that mean the other weapons Mr. Su mentioned also truly exist?"

Chi Lian Xing said, finding it somewhat incredible.

Who could have imagined that so many little-known divine weapons were hidden within the Jianghu?

"Do not forget Mr. Su’s identity."

"The history of the Green Dragon Society is even longer than that of the Great Ming Jianghu."

"Anything that has ever appeared in the Jianghu would naturally be recorded by the Green Dragon Society."

Yao Yao Yue said with great composure, her inner suspicions becoming increasingly certain.

Chi Lian Xing nodded and said softly: "Now we shall see how this Bai Bai Xiaosheng responds."

On the other side.

Bai Bai Xiaosheng was already completely stunned.

Su Chen wasn't just questioning the *Weapon Registry*; he was essentially trying to overthrow his *Weapon Registry* entirely.

If so many divine weapons had truly been omitted.

Then what difference was there between his *Weapon Registry* and a joke?

But when it came to refuting, he didn't know where to begin.

After thinking it over, Bai Bai Xiaosheng could only snort: "The supreme master of the Wulin, the Dragon-Slaying Saber, commands the world; none dare disobey. When the Heaven-Reliant appears, who can contend with its edge? I am naturally aware of these two divine weapons."

Still not convinced?

Su Chen decided to bring out his trump card.

"Then do you know."

"Why does the Dragon-Slaying Saber have the power to command the world?"

"And by what right does the Heaven-Reliant Sword contend with the Dragon-Slaying Saber?"

On the high platform, Su Chen said calmly.

These words instantly drew the attention of the entire hall.

[The supreme master of the Wulin, the Dragon-Slaying Saber, commands the world; none dare disobey. When the Heaven-Reliant appears, who can contend with its edge?]

This is a proverb that has circulated in the Great Ming Jianghu since ancient times.

But no one knows the origin of this proverb.

There are many in the Jianghu who love to fight for power and profit.

Because of this proverb, every time the Dragon-Slaying Saber appeared, it triggered countless factions to fight for it, resulting in rivers of blood.

Everyone wanted to seize the Dragon-Slaying Saber to command the world.

But for the past hundred years.

Those who obtained the Dragon-Slaying Saber not only failed to slaughter their way to dominance, but were instead besieged and killed one after another.

It wasn't until twenty years ago that the Dragon-Slaying Saber disappeared once more.

Only then did this Jianghu catastrophe, which constantly revolved around the Dragon-Slaying Saber, come to an end.

Now that Su Chen has brought up the old matter, he has successfully piqued everyone’s curiosity.

What exactly is it about this Dragon-Slaying Saber that earns it such high praise?

And by what right does the Heaven-Reliant Sword share the same fame?

Bai Bai Xiaosheng was stumped once again.

This was a puzzle that had plagued the Jianghu for hundreds of years; how would he know?

Facing the gazes of the crowd, Bai Bai Xiaosheng could only bite the bullet and say: "That is naturally because these two divine weapons are indestructible and can greatly enhance one's combat power..."

"Can one command the world simply by possessing an indestructible saber?"

Su Chen asked with a smile.

Bai Bai Xiaosheng finally couldn't hold it together; he wasn't actually an immortal, for heaven's sake.

"Since Mr. Su asks this, you must be very knowledgeable about these two divine weapons, right?"

Unable to answer, Bai Bai Xiaosheng could only turn the tables.

If Su Chen didn't know either, then they would be considered even.

"I do indeed know a thing or two about the Heaven-Reliant Sword and the Dragon-Slaying Saber."

On the high platform, Su Chen sipped his tea and said lightly.

These words were spoken lightly, but they caused an uproar throughout the hall.

Su Chen actually knows the secrets of the Dragon-Slaying Saber and the Heaven-Reliant Sword?

This is a puzzle that no one in the Jianghu has been able to solve for a hundred years.

In an instant.

The eyes of every Jianghu hero in the hall lit up.

……

In the corner on the east side.

Li Li Xunhuan poured himself another cup and drank it slowly, looking relaxed and content.

He didn't care at all about the Dragon-Slaying Saber or the Heaven-Reliant Sword. ===== CHAPTER 52 =====
