“Seems like our guests are really hungry,” commented the King of Fire.
He smiled and added, “Long, Ao, Tian, you guys can sit together!”
What!?
Shen Long and Shen Ao were stunned.
Shen Tian said, “Thank you, father.”
Shen Tian was happy that the three of them could sit together.
Honestly, Shen Tian felt very lonely after transmigrating to this world. Although Eunuch Gui was very caring, he was very modest, and that created a distance between them. His fans in Myriad Spirit Garden, on the other hand, were overenthusiastic, and Shen Tian was uncomfortable around them.
Since his brothers didn’t show him preferential treatment or treat him in a strange way, he felt at home.
He said to Shen Ao, “Brother, by right, I should not have been late for your big day. As an apology, I have prepared a present for you.”
Shen Ao’s heart skipped a beat upon hearing that.
What? What do you have to bring as a present! Not like I’m daring enough to keep it...
Shen Ao forced out a smile and said, “That’s very kind of you. We are blood brothers, so there is no need to be so formal.”
Shen Tian shook his head. “Please, keep it! My brother has successfully reached the Foundation Establishment stage. As your brother, I have to give you something!”
Shen Long felt slightly embarrassed upon hearing that and started eating quietly.
Then, Shen Tian took out a small box, gave it to Shen Ao, and said, “Look, brother. Do you like it?”
Honestly speaking, if Shen Ao had a choice, he did not wish to keep Shen Tian’s present. He knew that his brother was not very rich. As his brother, he did not want to see Shen Tian spending his limited resources on himself. Nonetheless, he was moved by Shen Tian’s sincerity.
Forget, we are brothers, after all. I’ve had enough bad luck recently anyway. How can it be worse than missing my chance to meet Master Celestial? Right?
Shen Ao removed the satin cloth and opened the box.
Shen Tian was delighted to see his brother being so careful with his present.
Shen Ao opened the box slowly, and a silver light escaped from the content within. It was a small silver sword, about one meter long, and it was radiating silver light.
Shen Ao was surprised to see this sword.
“This is a superior-grade enchanted armament silver flying sword made from extremely light Snow Silver! Where did you get this treasure? It is worth at least 30,000 Spirit Stones!”
Shen Ao could not hide his excitement. Most of the sword enchanted armaments were general type, meaning that they could be used both for Sword Kinesis Flight and fighting.
However, some swords were better at doing one than the other. Thus, rich cultivators would own two swords—one for fighting and one for fleeing.
This silver sword was very well-known for being a top-notch flying sword. It was 30% faster in Sword Kinesis Flight compared to other superior-grade enchanted armament swords!
% might seem little, but it would be very useful when escaping from opponents. It could easily outrun the opponent and save one’s life. It would also be very handy when it came to escaping from a terrifying demon when going out with friends.
The rationale was simple: You did not need to worry even if the demon was much faster than you. As long as you are faster than your friends, nothing could happen to you.
In conclusion, a good flying sword might not be able to boost one’s fighting power, but it certainly could save them from danger.
This was the best gift Shen Ao had received so far.
Shen Tian smiled and replied calmly, “I picked it up in the morning.”
You picked up a silver sword!?
Shen Ao looked at his brother doubtfully.
Are you sure you are lucky enough to pick up such a good item? Could it be that this sword is actually a defective product? I hope it will not explode halfway while I’m using it!
Shen Ao scared himself with that thought.
“Erm, brother, I thought you prepared the present yourself?”
Shen Tian was stunned for a while and tried to cover it up. “Yes, yes. I went to pick it up just for you.”
Shen Ao was rendered speechless. He felt that nothing good could happen if he used the sword. However, when looking at his thirteenth brother’s face, he could not turn him down.
He took out two more satin cloths and wrapped the box carefully. Shen Ao passed the box to Lee and said, “Thank you, brother. I’m very touched.”
He had made up his mind.
I’m going to sell it right after the bouquet and fire this Lee too!
Shen Ao was considering hiding in Grand White Grotto-Heaven and cultivating until he reached Nascent Soul when a huge purple sun appeared above Weiyang Palace.
Everyone felt enormous pressure on them, and they found it hard to breathe.
There was a priest in a purple and white robe staring through that sun. He was carrying a long sword, and his body was emanating a strong blade aura.
Even the King of Fire, Shen Xiao, panicked at the sight of the intruder. He knew that he could not beat this person.
Clang!
The intruder’s long sword suddenly flew out and disappeared. In the next instant, he appeared in the center of the palace, holding his long sword.
Finally, the crowd saw this man’s face.
Shen Ao’s eyes lit up. “Master, why are you here?”
Shen Ao’s remark relaxed everyone.
They had been thinking it was an enemy attack and had been prepared to flee the scene.
It turned out that he was Shen Ao’s Master, the Immortal Senior from Grand White Grotto-Heaven.
Some people started thinking of ways to make friends with this priest. He was a Supremacy in the Nascent Soul stage. It would be very fortunate if they were able to make friends with him!
However, they felt a sense of indifference from Supremacy Zi Yang. Apparently, he did not want to be disturbed.
Supremacy Zi Yang, who was holding a golden token that was glowing, nodded, and kept the token in his pocket. Then, he looked at Shen Ao and smiled kindly.
“I was right! It’s indeed you! Oh, my disciple! I did not expect you to have such talent. You make me proud!”
