Chapter 1139 Sword Spirit



In the meantime, Zhao Li Xin who was meditating felt like his consciousness was being pulled by a strange but familiar force, immediately he became alert cause he have experienced this before.

Slowly Zhao Li Xin opened his eyes and his gaze swept the area around him with wary eyes. Zhao Li Xin end up finding himself surrounded by a sea of golden flames yet he wasn't tormented by the scorching heat, instead, he felt engulfed by warmth like when he soaked in a hot spring.

Zhao Li Xin then noticed he was wearing a black robe like the one he usually wore but that was impossible cause he remembered these are not the clothes he had worn before, suddenly it dawned on him that everything he saw is an illusion created by someone or something.

Zhao Li Xin was instantly struck by the memory of when his consciousness was taken over by Emperor Lei Yu's madness that was absorbed by the Crimson Lightning Sword the next second the image of Lory covered in blood rushed into him like a flood instantly his legs become limp as fear and panic choked him make him hard to breathe but then that fear immediately replaced by a burst of rage "Show yourself! whoever you are - whatever you are, if you think you can control me, you are dead wrong! I will make you pay for this!" his cold voice was filled with menace.

A moment later there was a long silence then the flames in front of him flickered not long after something seemed to come out of the fire which looked like a boy judging by his short stature but since the boy was covered entirely in flaming flames it was hard to see his face.

"Master" a childish voice rang out from the fiery boy.

Zhao Li Xin didn't let her guard down, just because the creature in front of her looked like a child didn't mean it would not be dangerous, after all what kind of child could talk calmly while being engulfed in blazing flames?

"Who are you?" Zhao Li Xin glared at the fiery boy.

"It's me, master, can you recognize me? it's me the crimson lightning sword!" His childish voice sounded ecstatic "If the spirit inside the sword"

"..."

"You were surprised because you didn't think I looked this cute, right?" said the little spirit confidently.

"Why are you so small?" Zhao Li Xin's voice sounds disappointed.

'Crush!'

Zhao Li Xin's short comment instantly broke the little spirit's heart, well, that's if he had a heart.

"Master you're so mean!" The boy who claimed the Crimson Lightning Sword felt very sad "I'm not lying…I really am the Crimson Lightning Sword Master, please believe me, this is my true spirit form! Don't hate meeeee…." the little spirit cried incessantly without tears of course just annoying high pitch sounds.

Zhao Li Xin found it hard to believe that the mystical sword that belonged to the first king of his world made from the bones of the legendary red dragon Huo Long, the sword that was able to slay the mighty being Lazarus turn out to have the spirit of a little fiery boy and he's a crybaby too, not even Lory would believe this nonsense.

"Shut up or I put off your fire!"

"Hic!" The little spirit immediately pursed his lips.

Zhao Li Xin clicks his tongue in annoyance then sizes up the boy up and down "Shouldn't you be in the form of a giant fire creature?" Zhao Li Xin remembered the imposing creature he summon with the Crimson Lightning Sword, the Sword spirit should be a fearsome fire giant covered with fire and red lightning just like the creature coming from the dept of hell....it's not supposed to be this...cute.

"Master, that's not my true appearance, it's because I was influenced by my previous owner's hatred that I become such a barbaric creature, ah, please forget about that!" The fire boy cover his face and profusely shook his head.

Zhao Li Xin sizes the spirit for a moment then a disappointment flash in his eyes "I rather had your previous appearance"

Zhao Li Xin couldn't imagine that the next time he summoned a sword spirit from his sword the one that would come will be this cute little creature, wouldn't he just going to embarrass himself? At this moment Zhao Li Xin wishes he could return the give to Huo Long and Emperor Lei Yu.

The fire boy hugged Zhao Li Xin's thigh while pleading "Noo Master, my real appearance is much cooler, trust me!"

"Stop hugging me, are you going to burn my robe!" Zhao Li Xin was annoyed.

The boy quickly let go of his hands but he was still kneeling in front of Zhao Li Xin as if he was afraid of being thrown away by Zhao Li Xin.

"Don't worry sir, my fire won't hurt you or your clothe he gives reassurance.

Sadly Zhao Li Xin didn't care, he took some distance between himself and the fire creature, it seems he still doesn't like being too close to humans or even spirits he hated when someone or something clung to him except Lory of course.

"What do you want?" Zhao Li Xin didn't want to waste any more time with this noisy sword spirit.

"Oh, I...I want to get close to you master, I mean we've never been meet personally even though we've been through a lot together, so I thought between us is...aah, master don't go!" the boy stretched his hands as his cruel master left so causally.

A blue vein popped on Zhao Li Xin's temple he shakes his legs irritably "I'm going to extinguish you!!"

"Noo Master, I'm kidding – I'm kidding, I summoned you here because I have a message from Emperor Lei Yu!" The poor spirit sword screamed, how could its new owner be angrier than the previous one he felt so sorry for.

"What message?" The annoyance of Zhao Li Xin's interest, she knew it must be important.

The Sword Spirit was relieved, he finally got his master's attention, "Master previously said that because Zian's spirit has been split into two spirits, the power to guard the door of the world is weakening so there are some beings who escape and enter Verrion's world"

"Lory's world?" Zhao Li Xin wrinkled his forehead, why is Lory's world again as if everything is attracted to the world where Lory is?

"That's right Master, you must have felt that Verrion is very special, and compared to other worlds, not only does this place have abundant mana but also spiritual energy that is not inferior to your old world!"

Spirit Sword's words were true as proof he didn't feel the slightest difficulty cultivating in this world to be honest this place was as good as the Hwang Wu continent if not better.

"So...what happened, who came to this world?" asked Zhao Li Xin.

"Well, they didn't come by accident but rather someone invited them...they kinda break in but they got help from someone from Verrion" explained the spirit sword again.

Zhao Li Xin's gaze was deep "Who invited them?

The spirit sword shrug "I don't know?"

Zhao Li Xin sighed "What kind of creature they invited?"

The spirit sword shrugs again "Previous master didn't tell me?"

Zhao Li Xin felt a headache coming on he massaged his forehead trying to calm himself "Right....at least you know what the purpose of them coming to this world is right?"

The spirit sword opens his arms and shrugs nonchalantly "Dunno...can't be for a good reason, right?"

"...." Zhao Li Xin's head throbbed.

"Master comeback, don't leave!" the spirit sword jumped then grabbed Zhao Li Xin's leg tightly.

"You are useless, I'm leaving!" he feels stupid to trust this idiot spirit.

"No Master, I'm not finished yet, please listen to me, please - please - pleaseee!" the spirit sword hugged Zhao Li Xin's legs tightly as he was dragged along.

"The former master said that this would threaten the safety of the Lucient family including Princess Lorient therefore he warned you to increase your cultivation as soon as possible!"

Zhao Li Xin's steps stopped abruptly, "He knew my strength would decline after coming to this world..."

The spirit boy raised his head, "Yes master, he knows and it's actually Zian and Emperor Lei Yu wishing you were not separated from Princess Lorient, he said..."

'Please, at least that child, our last descendant….at least that boy can live together with the person he loves, unlike us, I hope he can have a happy ending'

Zhao Li Xin turn silent, so it wasn't a coincidence that he came to this world with Lory. Zhao Li Xin was grateful because he was afraid to imagine what kind of life she would have if Lory wasn't by his side, how lonely and empty his life would be.

Looks like he owes his ancestors big time.

"What else did he say...?" ask Zhao Li Xin again.

The sword spirit relieved Zhao Li Xin wanted to listen to him again and finally dared to let go of his hand from Zhao Li Xin's leg, it was really difficult to calm his new master.

'What a pain'

"Uhm..." the little spirit scratched his head while trying to remember what else then suddenly the spirit clapped its hands making the flames flicker "Oh yeah, they said the enemies are a lot!"

"What's that mean? in numbers? how much are they?" Zhao Li Xin becomes more wary.

The sword spirit gives a perfunctory answer "I don't know..."

'I'm going to kill this spirit!'
