Seven Star Sword (3)

"This is a demonic sword, an ominous sword," the old man said.

After speaking, he drank a glass of wine, remained silent for a while, and then continued, "This sword is said to have been forged by a master swordsmith on a starry night. The materials used to forge this sword are very special; they can absorb the essence of the stars."

"The master swordsmith used this material to forge an unparalleled sword. He succeeded, creating the sword, but he himself died in the process."

"The Seven Star Sword absorbs the stars in the sky; the suction force is extremely powerful, beyond the resistance of ordinary people, including that master swordsmith. He couldn't control the sword and was eventually sucked into it."

"The creation of every fine sword requires the skill of a master swordsmith; only in this way can the sword be developed to its full potential. However, that master swordsmith eventually died, so the sword became an incomplete product."

"It absorbed only seven stars before returning to stillness. Therefore, this sword became the Seven Star Sword."

"Because the sword is not yet complete, its properties are extremely unstable. It often goes berserk, and whoever obtains it will be able to control water. Since the first living being it killed was a human, it often controls and attacks humans."

"Since that accident, I don't know how many people have died; I've lost count."

"I see." Fanxin nodded and asked, "Then why did he end up in the mountains here on your side?"

Such a powerful demonic sword wouldn't be easily lost. It can control others.

"I don't know the specifics," the old man said. "Originally, there was no one here. We came here countless years ago with our ancestors. We came here to escape war. Although it was a forest back then, very desolate, our ancestors were not afraid and transformed it into a habitable place for humans." He continued, "Over the years, it gradually became a town. Later, as outsiders settled here, the population grew, and the territory expanded."

"We didn't know the Seven Star Sword lay dormant here at the time, but we were very clear about Seven Star Sword situation, as it had caused many wars."

"When Liu Xi brought this sword back, we were all terrified and immediately told him to throw it into the sea. Liu Xi is a good boy; he's very obedient. He took it straight to the beach and then threw it into the sea."

"We thought that was the end of it, but the sword wasn't satisfied. It actually escaped from the water and entangled Liu Xi. At that moment, we were all terrified, realizing that this sword was truly the Seven Star Sword. Otherwise, it couldn't possibly possess such spiritual power."

"When we saw that the Seven Star Sword wasn't controlling Liu Xi, we all breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Liu Xi was a destined person who could use the Seven Star Sword."

"But we didn't expect that things would still go wrong in the end. That demonic sword still controlled him, which led to this disaster."

"If Liu Xi hadn't taken back the sword and had remained asleep inside, there wouldn't have been any problem. However, things are unpredictable, and what's done is done; there's nothing we can do about it."

"I see." Fanxin Xin nodded, took out the Seven Star Sword, placed it on the table, and said, "But don't worry! This sword is mine from now on; it will become my weapon."

The Seven Star Sword is so domineering, its attack power must be very strong, and he likes it very much.

"You'd better be careful. If you get controlled by it, you'll be in big trouble." The old man's expression changed slightly when he saw Fanxin taking out the Seven Star Sword and playing with it. He said earnestly.

The Seven Star Sword is not to be trifled with. Liu Xi was in such a state; if he hadn't been rescued in time, something terrible might have happened.

"Don't worry about that! I've already intimidated it, nothing will happen," Fanxin chuckled and said.

He has already subdued the other party; it's unlikely the other party will resist. If it does resist, he will destroy it. Unless the other party wants to be destroyed, he will have absolutely no problem.

"Really? But you still need to be careful," the old man said immediately. He had long heard of the Seven Star Sword's terrifying power, especially after the recent bloodshed, which made him even more uneasy.

"I understand, don't worry!" Fanxin nodded and said.

"Well, now that you know about this sword, I have nothing more to say. Take care of yourself," the old man said.

Fanxin is not him, and he cannot interfere in Fanxin's affairs. If Fanxin wants to take this sword, then he can do nothing but watch.

"Hehe, Grandpa, don't worry, I'll be absolutely fine, because I'm very strong." Fanxin Xin chuckled and said, "Thank you for explaining it to me, Grandpa. This is my reward."

After saying this, Fanxin placed a bag of gold coins that he had prepared beforehand in front of the old man. In any case, the other party had helped him solve his doubts, so he naturally wanted to repay him.

"That's unnecessary! You can find out about the Seven Star Sword by asking around." Upon hearing this, the old man immediately shook his head, unwilling to accept the offer.

"Hmph, but I understand what you're saying, so there's no need for that." Fanxin Xin said with a smile, "Alright, stop refusing. I'm a pirate; money comes easily to me. If I'm short of cash, I just rob gangs and pirates, while you guys have to earn it little by little. So, don't be polite with me. If you're polite, I won't lose anything; you'll be the one who suffers."

Upon hearing this, the old man finally accepted it.

"Alright, grandpa, you should go back now! We should go too," Fanxin said. He had gotten what he wanted, and there was no need for him to stay any longer. He was ready to set sail and explore the New World.

"Alright, goodbye then." The old man nodded, stood up, and walked towards the bottom of the boat. He hadn't gone far when he suddenly stopped, turned to look at Fanxin, and said, "I heard Liu Xi is going to go with you, right?"

Fanxin replied without hesitation, "Yes, he loves adventure. So, I'm going to take him to fulfill his dream. Don't worry, I'll take good care of him and I definitely won't let him die."

He takes good care of his crew; it's not an easy thing for anyone to kill them.

"That's good. Take good care of him. He's a good boy, so don't let him feel burdened." The old man nodded and said.

Despite what happened, they still didn't blame each other. Because the other person was originally a good kid.

They didn't try to kick him out, but he had to leave, and there was nothing they could do about it.

"Okay, I understand." Fanxin nodded affirmatively and said.

After that, the old man said no more, immediately left the boat, and returned to the village.

Fanxin immediately announced that he was setting sail and heading into the distance.

The ship set sail once more, once again into the vast ocean, stretching to the horizon with no end in sight.

However, Fanxin felt no fear whatsoever, for he was, after all, a warrior.

"Hehe, let's go, let's go on an adventure!" Fanxin shouted.

"Okay!" the crew members responded enthusiastically, their faces beaming with excitement.

They traveled on without encountering any trouble. There were very few ships on the sea, and they didn't know why.

"Boss, there's a warship ahead!" the Little Black Cat shouted.

"Oh, really? Let's just leave it at that. If it's going to be a war, then let's have one." Fanxin said nonchalantly. He was already very strong, and he wasn't afraid of the Navy attacking him. If the Navy dared to attack him, he would definitely retaliate and wouldn't let them succeed.

"Okay," the Little Black Cat nodded and said.

The ship then continued forward without changing its course.

Meanwhile, naval ships were heading towards Fanxin's location, and the two sides eventually met at sea.

Neither side would give way, and the two sides reached a stalemate.

"Hey, you pirates, get out of my way! Did you hear me? I don't have time to mess with you today. Don't mess with me!" On the warship, a Vice Admiral wearing a military overcoat looked at Fanxin's crew and shouted angrily.

He was a very tall man with a bald head and a mustache. He had a long sword at his waist, which was about 1.5 meters long and looked quite intimidating.

"Why won't you move aside? We told you to!" The Little Black Cat came to the bow of the boat, looked at the middle, and shouted imperiously, "Stop talking nonsense and get out of my way, understand? Otherwise, I'll just smash you to pieces!"

The ships it builds are enormous, far larger than warships. As a result, if one of its ships rams into a warship, it could actually smash it to pieces.

"What? You want us to move aside? Do you even know we're the Navy? You little pirates are really arrogant, daring to talk to me like that. Are you looking for death?" The Vice Admiral was annoyed. Normally, pirates would tuck their tails between their legs and run away when they saw the Navy, afraid they would be caught.

However, the pirate ship showed no fear and actually rammed into them, as if it were ready to fight to the death. This made him very uncomfortable.

"Looking for death? Hmph, do you think you have the ability?" The Little Black Cat squinted at the other party, as if to say, "You don't have the ability." This was blatant contempt.

The Vice Admiral was displeased. He drew his longsword, pointed it at the Little Black Cat, and said, "It's just a Little Black Cat. How dare you talk to me like that? Are you looking for death? Don't think I won't take action."

He was furious; the Little Black Cat completely disregarded him. He was so frustrated he felt like he was going to vomit blood.

"Come on, let's see what you can do to me," the Little Black Cat said dismissively. Then, the Little Black Cat immediately pulled the Little Fox in front of it, using the Little Fox as a shield.

"You talk like that, all high and mighty, but when it really comes down to it, you're scared." The Little Fox glared at the Little Black Cat with displeasure.

Upon hearing this, the Little Black Cat chuckled and said, "You can attack from a distance. If you attack, the opponent will definitely suffer a great loss. If I attack from a distance, I won't be able to cause any damage."

The Little Fox's attack is invisible; once it strikes, it's virtually impossible for the opponent to defend against it. It hit that Vice Admiral, Vice Admiral probably doesn't even know how he was attacked.

However, its attack is a physical attack, so the opponent can see it and defend against it.

Since the lieutenant Vice Admiral had successfully defended itself, it was unable to pose a threat to the opponent. Therefore, it was quite frustrated.

Left with no other choice, it had to ask the Little Fox to come out of the mountain. With its help, everything was fine.

"Alright, then I'll reluctantly do it!" The Little Fox nodded helplessly. With that, it stepped forward to face the Vice Admiral.

"Hey, you bald guy, get out of the way. We need to get going, understand?" The Little Fox was quite blunt, directly hitting the other person's sore spot.

Upon hearing this, the Vice Admiral became even more furious and shouted, "One Little Black Cat left, and now another Little Fox has appeared. I'm really not satisfied. Since you won't move aside, I'll have no choice but to launch a direct attack. Men, move out and bombard them!"

"Yes, sir." The marines nodded in unison, then adjusted their cannons, aimed them at Fanxin's ship, and prepared to fire.

"Damn it, I haven't even made a move yet, and you've already attacked. This is really too much!" The Little Fox snorted unhappily.

After saying that, it didn't act immediately, but stood there waiting.

Soon after, the navy launched an attack, with countless shells raining down on them.

The Little Fox, unhurried and deliberate, began to use repulsive force to push all the cannonballs back.

After the shells were fired, they didn't move forward but instead moved backward, which terrified the marines. They immediately stopped firing and began to block the shells. If those shells landed on the warship, they would all be doomed.

"Hehe, are you still going to attack? If you do, I'll return every single one of your attacks." The Little Fox chuckled, a sly smile playing on her lips. The marines' faces darkened at her words.

"Damn it, how dare they play us like this? They're asking for it!" The Vice Admiral was furious. He had never suffered such a loss before. He was truly enraged to have been tricked today.

"Hmph, I don't know if we're looking for death. But if you don't move aside, you'll definitely suffer a great loss," the Little Fox said. "You'd better think carefully about what to do!"

"How dare you threaten me? This is utterly lawless!" The Vice Admiral roared angrily, immediately standing at the bow of the ship and launching an attack.

He swung his longsword and slashed at Fanxin's ship. A sword aura appeared and headed straight for Fanxin's ship.

Seeing its opponent's stubbornness, the Little Fox grew impatient. It immediately attacked, blocking the sword energy. Then, it used its repulsive force to strike the Vice Admiral's chest. The Vice Admiral thought the Little Fox was bluffing, so he didn't pay much attention. However, the next time, he was sent flying quite a distance.
