Chapter 621: Demonic Sword (2)
Buzz, buzz!
The moment Li Pin grasped the Cosmic Radiance Divine Weapon, now merged with the Ruoxi Sword, he clearly sensed its joy and exultation. It was the elation of finally returning to its master's hands after countless years. Every trace of joy felt sincere, devout, and tangible.
Vaguely, he could almost see it enduring billions of stellar years of torment for this moment. It had been passed from one wielder to another, tossed between countless owners. But to the sword, they were nothing more than sword slaves, mere puppets to refine its own strength. It was all for the sole purpose of returning to the only master it had ever recognized—Astral God Mara, Cang Ruoxi.
Day after day, year after year, it had grown from a weak Supreme Demonic Sword to a mighty Cosmic Radiance Divine Weapon.
Yet, even after reaching this level, it never wavered from its purpose, ceaselessly awaiting the day it could return to its master's side.
Dozens of stellar years ago, it had sensed Cang Ruoxi's power. Unable to contain its excitement, it guided its newly found sword slave, the Solar Flare Astral God Bi Luo, toward the Yuan Yang Star Domain.
That was what led to the earlier battle and Bi Luo's reckless ambush.
Since Cang Ruoxi had transferred the sword master's authority to Li Pin, the sword mistook Li Pin for Cang Ruoxi. As it returned to what it believed to be its rightful master, a flood of joy surged into Li Pin's mind and consciousness. It was eager to share its elation, as if urging him to celebrate this long-awaited reunion.
But Li Pin knew the truth. He wasn't Cang Ruoxi. Nor was he so arrogant as to think he was the kind of person who was universally adored. He believed that he had acted according to the rules, but most people who met him for the first time still saw him as arrogant and conceited.
Because of this, he didn't believe that his charisma alone was enough to make the Cosmic Radiance Divine Weapon willingly accept him as its master, let alone feel overjoyed just because Cang Ruoxi had transferred authority to him.
Li Pin kept his inner spirit clear, like a mirror reflecting all around him. "Joy...."
However, the Supreme Demonic Sword's joy disregarded that clarity, seeping directly into the depths of his soul.
