But using such Jianghu secrets to accompany his wine was certainly a pleasure in life.

……

In the southwest corner.

Lu Lu Xiaofeng clapped his hands repeatedly and laughed: "If Ximen Ximen Chuixue doesn't come, he is truly missing out on a great loss."

Hua Hua Manlou also showed excitement.

The century-old unsolved mystery of the Jianghu might be revealed today.

……

Below the high platform.

Bai Bai Xiaosheng was bewildered again.

Does Su Chen really know the secret of the Dragon-Slaying Saber and the Heaven-Reliant Sword?

"Then please, Mr. Su, tell us what is so strange about these two divine weapons?"

Bai Bai Xiaosheng said subconsciously.

He didn't even notice that his tone already carried three parts of respect.

On the high platform.

Su Chen smiled indifferently and fanned himself with his folding fan.

Everyone in the hall understood what this meant, and it immediately fell silent, waiting for Su Chen to speak.

"Since you are all interested in this matter."

"Then today’s casual talk will review the Dragon-Slaying Saber and the Heaven-Reliant Sword."

"Although these two divine weapons differ as saber and sword, their essence is the same."

"Because their forging materials are identical; they were originally one supreme divine weapon split into two."

"The owner of this supreme divine weapon had a deep connection with Guo Xiang, the founder of the Emei Sect."

"After the supreme divine weapon was broken apart, that expert gifted the Heaven-Reliant Sword to Guo Xiang."

"Because of this, the Heaven-Reliant Divine Sword has been the Emei Sect’s supreme treasure for generations."

"As for the Dragon-Slaying Saber, it drifted into the Jianghu and was fought over by various factions."

……

Su Chen, like a storyteller, slowly revealed the secrets of the Dragon-Slaying Saber and the Heaven-Reliant Sword.

The Jianghu heroes below the platform had already widened their eyes.

Is this really the truth?

Ever since they appeared, the Dragon-Slaying Saber and the Heaven-Reliant Sword have always been mentioned together.

It turns out it was because these two divine weapons were originally one supreme divine weapon broken into pieces.

And the owner of this supreme divine weapon had a great connection with the Emei Sect’s founder, Guo Xiang. ===== CHAPTER 53 =====

"So that’s it, no wonder the Heaven-Reliant Divine Sword has always been held by the Emei Sect."

"Both the Dragon-Slaying Saber and the Heaven-Reliant Sword are supreme divine weapons of the age; how strong must that original supreme divine weapon have been?"

"So it was an old friend of Founder Guo Xiang who forged the Dragon-Slaying Saber and the Heaven-Reliant Sword; this is definitely a Jianghu secret."

"Mr. Su is truly extraordinary to know even such secret matters."

"Even Bai Bai Xiaosheng didn't know this, yet Mr. Su knows it perfectly; it seems he is a step above Bai Bai Xiaosheng."

"I think Bai Bai Xiaosheng’s ability is just so-so, far inferior to Mr. Su."

……

In the hall, the Jianghu heroes were discussing it heatedly.

Su Chen’s act of solving a mystery that had plagued the Jianghu for a hundred years made everyone feel immensely satisfied.

At this moment, they didn't care that Bai Bai Xiaosheng was right in front of them, and they loudly praised Su Chen for knowing everything under heaven.

Bai Bai Xiaosheng was also very shocked by this secret.

But he felt even more endless frustration.

Su Chen was essentially rubbing his face into the dirt.

If today’s events were to spread, his reputation as Bai Bai Xiaosheng would surely be ruined.

Thinking of this, Bai Bai Xiaosheng’s face became even uglier, and he said coldly:

"Mr. Su’s explanation is indeed fascinating."

"But the most crucial point has not yet been mentioned."

"Even if this Dragon-Slaying Saber was forged from a supreme divine weapon, by what right does it command the world?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding crowd nodded one after another.

The origins of the Dragon-Slaying Saber and the Heaven-Reliant Sword were certainly attractive.

But what everyone cared about most was that long-circulated proverb.

[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?]

Because of this proverb.

Every time the Dragon-Slaying Saber appeared, it triggered a Jianghu catastrophe.

On the high platform.

Su Chen shook his folding fan and said with great regret:

"The Dragon-Slaying Saber is indeed sharp and peerless, unique in the world."

"But to be the one who commands the world, it is absolutely not something that can be achieved by mere force."

"Therefore, the phrase 'The supreme master of the Wulin, the Dragon-Slaying Saber' does not actually refer to the saber itself."

"It was only because people in the Jianghu misunderstood it that they thought obtaining the saber would allow them to command the world."

"What truly gives the Dragon-Slaying Saber the power to command the world is the mystery hidden within it."

What?

Hearing Su Chen’s words, everyone was stunned.

It’s not the saber itself that has the power to command the world, but a mystery hidden inside the blade?

This was an answer no one had expected.

"This is truly a sad story."

Lu Lu Xiaofeng sighed.

Those who died holding the Dragon-Slaying Saber, if they knew this secret, would probably be so angry they’d rise from the dead.

"So that’s it, so that’s it."

Li Li Xunhuan looked enlightened.

"With the sharpness of the Dragon-Slaying Saber, being indestructible, naturally no one could discover that there was another mystery inside the blade."

Chi Lian Xing said softly, feeling it was somewhat absurd.

The secret that had plagued the Jianghu for a hundred years was surprisingly simple.

As long as the Dragon-Slaying Saber was broken, it would naturally be discovered.

But such a simple secret had gone unnoticed for a hundred years.

"Nonsense!"

"The blade is so narrow, what mystery could it hide that would command the world?"

Bai Bai Xiaosheng said, still unconvinced.

Others also showed confusion and looked at Su Chen.

They wanted to know what this mystery was.

On the high platform.

Su Chen didn't keep them in suspense and said directly:

"There isn't much space inside the blade."

"What is hidden inside is merely a few sheets of paper."

"But these few sheets of paper are enough to command thousands of troops."

"Because they contain the *Yao Yue Wumu Testament* written by Yao Yue Fei, Yao Yue Yao Yue Wumu!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole hall was shocked. ===== CHAPTER 54 =====
