Chapter 418 I Insist on Dragging Her Out
Just as he furrowed his brows in contemplation of this issue, a sharp noise suddenly emanated from outside the window.
Shen Xiheng abruptly turned his head to look, only to see a flash of white light. A dagger emitting a cold gleam flew in from outside and pierced solidly into the column propping up the roof beams.
"What is this?" he exclaimed in surprise, eyes wide.
Mo Qingshan had gone out to drink, leaving only him and Shi Zhou in the room at the moment.
Shi Zhou, hearing the noise, opened her eyes. First looking outside the window, she saw not a trace of anyone and then turned her gaze back to fixate on the dagger stuck in the column for a while.
She rose to her feet and walked over to the column. Instead of immediately removing the dagger stuck in it, she first found a cloth and, placing it between her hand and the weapon, she abruptly pulled out the dagger.
"This is the unique hidden weapon of Qianshan Sect, the Qianye Blade," she said, closely examining the pattern on the dagger before speaking gravely.
"Qianye Blade?" Shen Xiheng frowned, the name sounded quite elegant, but why did it appear here?
After confirming there was no poison on the blade, Shi Zhou removed the cloth and held the dagger between her fingers.
After playing with it for a while, her eyes slightly cool, she explained, "Legend has it that this blade can cut through iron as if it were mud. It seems to have a weak attack power, but it targets vital points. A single slash across the neck is enough to result in instant death."
