In the beginning, he was ranked alongside An Shigeng as a spoiled brat.

Upon hearing this, the High Priest of Loulan was immediately alarmed.

From Zhang Xiaoshan's warning, she sensed a murderous intent as chilling as the wind.

If she truly violates Zhang Xiaoshan's taboo, Zhang Xiaoshan might actually destroy Loulan, making her pay a terrible price.

However, upon hearing that the Loulan warriors who joined the Zhang family had a different lineage, she understood that the Zhang family's lineage had varying levels of quality. She received the most core lineage of the Zhang family, which was also a testament to Zhang Xiaoshan's trust in her.

"Alright, for any faction, the core heritage is the foundation upon which it stands."

Moreover, the Loulan people have obtained the core inheritance of the Zhang family, and without top-notch aptitude, it would be extremely difficult for them to cultivate to the great mastery level.

In addition, I will teach you another technique as a cover.

Once a top-tier talent is discovered within Loulan City, this cultivation method can be passed on; it is no weaker than the Foundation Establishment chapter of the Nine Yin Manual!

"Thank you, sir!"

The High Priest of Loulan bowed gratefully to Zhang Xiaoshan.

Zhang Xiaoshan was not stingy either, passing down two parts of the mental cultivation method: the Nine Yin Manual and the Bright Jade Skill.

The Mingyu Gong is cold and domineering, and it is a Xuanmen mental cultivation method. The ninth level can advance one to the Grandmaster realm.

However, with Zhang Xiaoshan's translation, the High Priest of Loulan quickly discovered that the profound mystery of the Nine Yin Manual actually contained the most essential part of the Mingyu Skill, and this was only the first nine levels of the manual.

After cultivating, the High Priest of Loulan's aptitude also impressed Bai Feifei.

In just one month, the High Priest of Loulan not only completed the transformation of the Nine Yin Sevenfold Heart Sutra.

Moreover, the Nine Yin True Qi he cultivated was exceptionally pure.

The extremely yin and cold Nine Yin True Qi, faintly, harbors a pure yin mist.

Zhang Xiaoshan knew that this was the secluded paradise of the Loulan ancient tribe, and the barrier maintained by the Mirage Dragon Pearl could gather spiritual energy, which was why he had the qualifications to become a high priest.

Furthermore, by using the Nine Yin Manual to activate the Bright Jade Skill, he broke through the seventh level again within three days, becoming a master at the pinnacle of skill.

At this moment, the High Priest of Loulan was no longer a mere "pretty face" possessing supreme true qi but lacking supreme strength.

The legacy left in Loulan consists of the Thirteen Protectors' external training combined with the Iron Blood Banner Sect's unique skills.

As for top-tier inheritance?

Loulan were a foreign people, and they also had Mediterranean culture, so it was impossible for Zhang Xiaoshan to pass on his true divine skills.

Even the Mingyu Technique can only be practiced by the successor of the Loulan High Priest.

And it can only be taught to a maximum of two people at a time!

"The Xuanyuan Sword has been reborn, and it's in the hands of Gai Nie, one of the two heroes of Guigu!"

"The Xuanyuan Sword? Isn't that an ancient legend?"

"Hey, ancient legends aren't just baseless rumors."

Moreover, this time, not only the Xuanyuan Divine Sword appeared, but also another treasure—the War Demon God, a war puppet a hundred times more powerful than the mechanical beasts of the Mohist and Gongshu families.

In the streets and alleys of Kyushu, through taverns and brothels, news of the birth of the Xuanyuan Sword had already spread throughout the entire Kyushu region even before Gai Nie entered the pass.

·········Requesting flowers·· 0

What is the Xuanyuan Sword?

The foremost of the ten ancient divine swords of Kyushu, the legendary sword of emperors.

Therefore, all the major powers in Kyushu were eager to make a move after receiving the news.

"Snapped!"

Suddenly, the sound of the gavel drew the attention of everyone in the tavern to the storyteller.

"Are you all talking about the recent news of the Xuanyuan Sword's emergence?"

This old man, though not very knowledgeable, knows some inside information.

"Old scholar, don't keep us in suspense, tell us quickly, tell us quickly..."

Urged on by the storyteller, the good wine and food, along with the tip, brought a satisfied smile to his face.

This is also their benefit.

...... ..... ...

Even a single leak of insider information from the Zhang family can make them a fortune.

Moreover, the news about the Zhang family is not unfounded; it is all based on verifiable evidence and traceable facts. Over the years, they have gained the recognition and trust of the lower classes in Kyushu.

"Actually, this Xuanyuan Sword is fake, but it's also real!"

As soon as Fang finished speaking, a chorus of curses erupted from below:

"Even if it's true, it's still fake?"

"Old scholar, are you trying to fool me? Or are you just going to spout your flowery, classical theories again?"

"Exactly, what's real is real, and what's fake is fake. How can something be real yet also fake?"

Snapped!

Seeing the agitated crowd below, the old scholar had no choice but to strike the gavel again to intimidate them, and slowly said:

"Don't be anxious, everyone. You will naturally be able to distinguish between the true and the false."

The old man said this sword is not the Xuanyuan Sword, because it is not the legendary sword.

It is called that because it is made of the same material as the Xuanyuan Sword and is also a divine weapon from the time of the Yellow Emperor.

"It's just one righteous sword and one demonic sword, one the Xuanyuan Divine Sword and the other the Chiyou Demonic Sword!"

what?

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at the old scholar in disbelief.

"This sword was originally a demonic sword, but it was later subdued by Young Master Zhang, who suppressed its terrifying demonic nature, and it became a supreme divine sword."

As for why this sword ended up in Gai Nie's hands?

This was Zhang Gongzi's deliberate act, his purpose being to use Gai Nie to attract the attention of many Western Region forces.

In this way, the excavated land of Loulan will remain safe. Otherwise, if the heroes cannot find the treasure, they will surely investigate thoroughly, and Loulan will inevitably face calamity.

Chapter 735 The Primordial Demon Sword? Crimson Blood's Ambition

The Xuanyuan Divine Sword? The Chiyou Demon Sword?

As the two divine weapons circulated in the martial arts world, the masters there eagerly awaited their arrival.

For no other reason than that the Chi You Demon Sword can be transformed into the Xuanyuan Divine Sword, which implies that it must be an unparalleled divine weapon comparable to the Xuanyuan Divine Sword.

Moreover, the power of Gai Nie and Chi You's forces is such that a single move, "Horizontal Sweep in All Directions," can unleash a massacre.

This is one of the reasons why it attracts so much attention!

This is the third supreme weapon of the Zhang family.

The Black Stone Spear, the divine sword hidden in the Mo Family Sword Pool, and now the Chi You Demon Sword are enough to move everyone.

However, the Zhang family's strength also made everyone wary.

Otherwise, the three supreme divine weapons would have been divided up by a group of powerful figures long ago.

It remains to be seen whether this divine weapon of Chi You will become Zhang Xiaoshan's personal "653" sword or be given to his children.

After all, this divine weapon has a very significant impact.

Loulan merely guards this ancient artifact; its true owner is the Jiuli tribe, the legacy of Chiyou.

If it weren't for Zhang Xiaoshan, it would be difficult for an ordinary person to control him.

As for the remaining Demon Gods, although they are rumored to be indestructible, they belong to the Empire and are similar to the Zhang family's intimidation power.

Moreover, carrying such a large bundle of things would be difficult to hide.

At the same time, Gai Nie, upon entering the pass, immediately saw Liu Sheng Piaoxu, whom he had been waiting for.

"Miss Yagyu!"

After Zhang Xiaoshan left Kunlun, Huang Rong took Zijun back to the Mirage Tower.

Just as Liu Sheng Piaoxu had escorted Huang Rong and the others to Yumen Pass, he received a message from Zhang Xiaoshan delivered by his divine eagle.

As for Liu Sheng Piaoxu's identity?

A Grandmaster, and a Sword Saint whose presence is one with heaven and earth, is a rare talent in the entire Nine Provinces.

Without any doubt, Gai Nie handed the divine sword to Liu Sheng Piaoxu.

As for embezzlement?

They could have left after obtaining the divine sword, but neither the Xiang family nor the Mo family could withstand the Zhang family's wrath.

Moreover, the Zhang family can protect the divine sword. Once they obtain the divine sword, they will inevitably be hunted down by the major powers of the Nine Provinces.

"Mr. Gai, the Zhang family has clarified the origin and ownership of the divine sword."

"Now that the divine sword, Piaoxu, has been brought back to Young Master Gai, you need not worry about the aftermath. As for those greedy individuals, you need not hold back either."

"Thank you, Gai Nie understands!"

Hearing that the Zhang family had clarified everything, Gai Nie couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The Zhang family kept their promise and revealed the origin of the divine sword in its entirety. Apart from a few fools, the major powers would certainly not make things difficult for them.

And indeed, that was the case. When Gai Nie appeared in the Central Plains, apart from a few reckless and greedy individuals, none of the major powers made things difficult for him in this matter.

Because they knew that Gai Nie couldn't possibly lie about this.

The fact that Gai Nie could appear so openly already speaks volumes: the sword is no longer with Gai Nie, but has been returned to the Zhang family.

···

"The divine weapon of the ancestor Chi You?"

Chi Xue looked at the intelligence in his hand. He never expected that the ancient Loulan clan, which had been hidden for thousands of years, would be found by the Empire and the Zhang family, and that they would join forces to divide up the secret treasure that originally belonged to their Miao region.

Chi You's Demon Sword and the Demon God of Soldiers!

As for the Xuanyuan Divine Sword?

They also knew of the Zhang family's ability to suppress the demonic power of the Dragon Ball, but they did not believe that the murderous nature of the Chi You Demon Sword would affect them.

They are descendants of Chi You, the ancestor of war, and should naturally inherit the demonic power of their ancestor.

Moreover, they believed that only by combining it with their immortal demonic bodies could they unleash the true power of the Chi You Demon Sword.

"Sect Master, should we demand the Ancestral Demon Sword back from the Zhang family?"

Chi Xue looked at Chi Yuan, who was filled with boundless fighting spirit, and he also knew the impact of this matter on Miao territory.

However, turning against the Zhang family is the worst possible strategy unless it's absolutely necessary.

Zhang Xiaoshan's strength is unfathomable. If he were to turn against the Zhang family, it would mean that both sides would be severely damaged, and the Zhang family might even destroy their Chiyou Village, which has been passed down for thousands of years.

In terms of strength, the Zhang family has two Gu Kings, whose Gu techniques are in no way inferior to theirs; Zhang Xiaoshan's personal bronze-armored warriors are three top-tier Grandmaster guards; not to mention the forces under Zhang Xiaoshan's command: two Ghost Streets and three assassin organizations...

Otherwise, the Zhang family would not have stood shoulder to shoulder with the empire.

As for the Zhang family, which is part of the United Empire?

The Empire and the Zhang family are currently in a honeymoon period. Moreover, while the Empire is wary of the Zhang family, attacking them without cause is not in the Dragon Emperor's style.

The empire can watch Miao Jiang and the Zhang family weaken each other, but it will never join forces with Miao Jiang to deal with the Zhang family.

"Now that the Ancestral Demon Sword has fallen into the hands of the Zhang family, it's only a matter of time before it's taken back."

However, reclaiming it from the Zhang family won't be easy; at least one dragon ball, and likely some millennia-old divine medicine as well!

"what?"

The combination of the Dragon Ball and the ancient elixir caused even Chi Yuan and Linglong to change their expressions in astonishment.

However, the elders of Chiyou Village did not exhibit any unusual behavior.

After all, the value of the Chi You Demon Sword itself is no less than that of the Dragon Ball. In addition, Zhang Xiaoshan suppressed the demonic nature of the Chi You Demon Sword. How could the Zhang family have paid for it themselves?
