I'm also desperate.

Chapter 873 What Deal

Fang Yue called out repeatedly, but the sheepskin parchment remained unresponsive.

Fortunately, the Heavenly Sword was also trembling, seemingly still under the parchment's intimidation, not daring to act rashly, staying quiet and obedient.

Seeing this, Fang Yue lowered his voice and said, "Let's make this clear, if you dare to betray me, the sheepskin parchment will definitely devour you."

The Heavenly Sword trembled even more violently, and as it trembled, it moved up and down slightly, as if signaling that it understood and would absolutely not dare to act recklessly.

Next, Fang Yue used the Heavenly Sword to perform several sword flourishes, and even activated the Kongbing (Empty Ice) Sword Technique.

As a result, he discovered that as long as he used the Heavenly Sword to execute sword techniques, the power of the sword techniques would increase dramatically.

For example, the Kongbing Sword Technique, even without absorbing other cultivation methods, could achieve the power it had before absorbing cultivation methods when executed with the Heavenly Sword!

This massive increase made Fang Yue's eyes widen, and he simply couldn't put it down.

Who wouldn't love having their strength suddenly increase several times over?

It's just that this Heavenly Sword is a bit strange, harboring hidden dangers, and if it can't be suppressed, it will only lead to backlash.

In any case, having obtained the Heavenly Sword and eliminated Jian Wufeng, it was time to go to the Jibing (Extreme Ice) Sect.

As for Tian Ruichi's matter, and the affairs of the Tianjian (Heavenly Sword) Sect… those could only be dealt with later.

Determining the direction, Fang Yue quickly left.

What Fang Yue didn't expect was that before he even reached the Jibing Sect, while he was still halfway there on the official road leading to the Jibing Sect, he had already caught up with Wei Ba and the others.

From a distance, he could see the two women walking one in front of the other, seemingly having some kind of conflict.

Wei Ba looked preoccupied, walking slowly, with her head lowered the entire time, her eyes red, as if she had just been crying.

And Ni Dongmei had a difficult expression, clenching her fists, silently walking in front of Wei Ba at a distance.

There was no communication between them, as if there was some kind of barrier.

Fang Yue didn't think too much and directly called out to them.

"Ni Dongmei! Wei Ba!"

Wei Ba, who had been looking down, suddenly widened her eyes, as if she had seen something incredible, and turned her head back in surprise. After seeing that it was Fang Yue, tears streamed down her face.

"Ye-ge!!"

Wei Ba ran towards Fang Yue, excitedly hugging him, burying her head in his chest, her body trembling slightly.

"I thought… I thought…"

Fang Yue was stunned, not expecting Wei Ba to react so strongly.

He awkwardly glanced at Ni Dongmei, then hesitated for a moment, patted Wei Ba's head, and comforted her.

"It's okay, I'm okay, it was just Jian Wufeng of the Heavenly Sword Sect, he couldn't hurt me."

Ni Dongmei also widened her eyes, expressions of astonishment and shock flashing across her face. Finally, she excitedly covered her left wrist with her right hand, standing in place, biting her lip.

"That's great! He's still alive… he didn't die because of us!"

"But, this little guy actually blocked the Heavenly Sword! He has actually grown to such an extent!"

"Could it be that I was wrong, and the pillar of fortune of the Jibing Sect is not manifested in Wei Ba's [Void Spirit Root], but in this kid?"

For some reason, she shouldn't have thought this way, but after hearing Wei Ba's self-report, and with Wei Ba's cultivation speed indeed decreasing day by day, Ni Dongmei couldn't help but start overthinking, and the words of Lord Qi Ba Jiu (Seven Eight Nine) always flashed through her mind.

In addition, as the Holy Maiden of the Jibing Sect, if she was willing, all kinds of information that the Jibing Sect could gather would be concentrated to her.

Therefore, Wei Ba has a certain understanding of the situation, conditions, and forces in the capital.

As a well-known sword expert and Yu-level powerhouse in the capital, the Sect Leader of the Tianjian Sect. Tianjian Jian Wufeng's strength is naturally also within the scope of her information gathering.

Therefore, she recognized that the sword in Fang Yue's hand was actually the treasure of the Tianjian Sect - the Heavenly Sword!

"What?! The Heavenly Sword, wait! That's really the Heavenly Sword! Jian Wufeng's Heavenly Sword, why is it in your hands?!"

Ni Dongmei heard the sound and also came back to her senses. She looked at the sword in Fang Yue's hand and also widened her eyes, her face full of disbelief.

The Heavenly Sword that Jian Wufeng never left, said to be with him until the sword was destroyed and he died, why was it in Fang Yue's hand!

"Could it be… that you reached some kind of deal with the Heavenly Sword, and you came here to kill us!"
