After smiling twice with relief, Xun Wuxian asked Wen Wen, "What was the favor you wanted me to help with earlier?"
Wen Wen bowed and said, "I want to know how I can possess a sword of my own."
Xun Wuxian's eyes showed admiration, then he said to Wen Wen, "My time is short, so I'll get straight to the point."
"Although you have comprehended the Sword of the Heart, you still need a long sword that is in tune with your heart to bring your swordsmanship to its peak."
"That sword embryo of the Demonic Sword is very suitable for you. Fortunately, it has not been completely corrupted."
"Soak that sword embryo in your blood, nurture it with sword qi for two hours daily, engrave your sword qi circuits within the sword embryo, and add some elements that possess your unique traits."
"In about a few dozen days, you will be able to perceive changes. At that time, you can use this sword embryo to forge your own sword."
Wen Wen's teeth ached as he listened, "This is so troublesome?"
Xun Wuxian shook his head and said, "Every excellent swordsman has come this way. After the sword is forged, it will be in tune with your heart and grow with you. At least the next time you use that move, the sword won't shatter." Su Dan Novel Network
After briefly instructing Wen Wen, Xun Wuxian's body emitted waves of white light and he sped off in a direction, towards the direction of the Xun family's Sword Tomb.
Upon returning to the Sword Tomb, no one would welcome him, nor would he see any familiar faces. He would immediately enter a slumber beyond time.
Only when the Xun family fell into crisis would he awaken from his slumber to fight for the Xun family with all his might.
Regardless of the outcome of the battle, he would then die completely.
This was the fate of every powerful expert above Disaster True Sequence in the Xun family; no one could change it.
...
After Xun Wuxian left, Wen Wen switched to his vampire physique, allowing his swollen arms to quickly recover, but the emptiness in his strength could not be restored in a short time.
Even so, Wen Wen, despite his fatigue, first collected the Redbeard lying on the ground and the bicycle rider of Disaster True Sequence into the containment facility.
Fortunately, both of them were still unconscious, so they did not resist in any way.
Next, he began to clean up the battlefield. The commotion from this battle was not small and was bound to attract the attention of the local Hunter Association. Wen Wen wanted to gather all the good stuff before they arrived.
The pile of broken toys belonging to the Jester lost their function after Xun Wuxian controlled his body, but Wen Wen, adhering to the principle of erring on the side of caution, collected everything that seemed potentially useful.
At worst, he could sell them as second-hand toys...
Ultimately, the only usable item Wen Wen found among the belongings of the Absurd Word gang was the pumpkin mask left by the deceased Pumpkin Man.
The Pumpkin Man's entire body was shattered by sword qi, but the mask remained intact, with only a pile of paste inside.
Regardless of what abilities this item possessed, Wen Wen had no intention of using it himself. He would wash it and sell it in the containment shop.
As for the good items on the Jester, they were likely all taken by Xun Wuxian.
However, there were quite a few good items from Redbeard's side, such as Redbeard's hammer, which, when swung in any direction, caused the ground in that direction to erupt with lava.
There were also two shields capable of withstanding Disaster-level attacks, a slingshot that could shoot elemental attacks of various types, and three unfinished Demon Sword rejects.
The biggest gain, of course, was the residual Demon Sword embryo. Wen Wen intended to forge his own sword after doing his best to remove its demonic nature.
As for Redbeard's other possessions, they were all destroyed during the battle with the Jester.
However, even the destroyed props could yield some usable materials, and Wen Wen wasted none of them.
Redbeard was a craftsman who could forge super-powered items. Now that he had been captured by Wen Wen, he was destined to become Wen Wen's tool, just like Xu Hai.
When he woke up, he would be made to craft all these scattered materials into usable items.
By the time Gong Bao Ding arrived with his men, the place was already deserted. Apart from the ruins caused by the battle, nothing else remained, offering no profit.
Wen Wen did not choose to confront Gong Bao Ding and his group, but instead headed straight for the old inn.
After Redbeard's downfall, the association would inevitably liquidate Redbeard's subordinates, and he wanted to get ahead of them to claim all the valuable items.
The old inn remained as quiet as ever. Ju Mo sat in the lobby on the first floor, slightly excited.
He had successfully delivered the high-grade demons and sword qi crystals that Redbeard had requested. When Redbeard received what he wanted, he would surely grant him some rewards.
Would that reward be a super-powered item, or the removal of the Demon Sword from within him...
While he was happily contemplating, a tremor suddenly came from outside the old inn, and then Ju Mo entered the annex of the old inn.
"Someone is attacking again? What did my old inn ever do to provoke this?"
He angrily pushed open the door, intending to tear the attacker to shreds, but when he saw the scene in the courtyard, his legs instantly felt weak.
This time, the attackers were not one or two people, not even a small team... but a group of monsters wearing black and red robes and strange masks!
Ten, twenty... there were nearly a hundred monsters and super-powered individuals here!
These individuals, varying in height and build, were at least Disaster-level, with the strongest even reaching Disaster Intermediate Sequence.
Their eyes were filled with excitement and desire, as if they saw him as a delicious cake. Having operated the old inn for many years, Ju Mo could tell from their eyes alone that these individuals...
Were all villains!
And leading these people was Wen Wen, who was sitting on a giant eagle.
This giant eagle was painted black and red with pigment, but judging by the feathers blown by the wind, it could be seen that its original feathers were golden.
This was the Disaster-level golden yīng eagle monster that Wen Wen had captured in the Qi Ling Mountains, and it had now been violently tamed by Wen Wen into a cool mount.
"You weren't..." Ju Mo stammered, sweat dripping from his forehead.
"I know what you want to ask, Redbeard is dead," Wen Wen said matter-of-factly.
Wen Wen's strength was currently depleted, and the old inn's targets were numerous and weak. He had no interest in taking action himself.
The other occupants of the old inn also gradually emerged from the inn, and upon seeing the scene, they reacted the same way as Ju Mo.
Faced with so many monsters, even escape was a luxury. If Wen Wen had displayed such power earlier, they would never have dared to harbor any dissatisfaction...
Seeing that everyone had gathered, Wen Wen reached his hand towards the sky, and a suction force emanated from his palm.
A few seconds later, several cracks appeared in the sky, and then this spatial anomaly began to tremble, finally disintegrating into fragments, returning everyone to the real world.
This spatial anomaly was not powerful to begin with, and pulling so many monsters and super-powered individuals into it was already its limit. Wen Wen merely guided it slightly, and the spatial anomaly collapsed immediately.
"Go, make trouble, capture everyone in this inn, whether they are ordinary people or super-powered individuals... but I want them all alive."
As soon as Wen Wen finished speaking, all the monsters eagerly rubbed their hands together and entered the old inn from various angles. The scene immediately became chaotic.
Meanwhile, Wen Wen lay on the warm back of the golden yīng eagle monster and began to doze.
The screams and wails were the best lullaby.
