Twin Blades and Starlight

Early the next morning, Yang Tianyou flew out of the house of his Fifteenth Brother, Yang Tianwang.

Afterwards, he visited his Fourth Sister Yang Tianxue, and his twelfth uncle Yang Qiongchuan, presenting each of them with a First-Tier Superior-Grade Spirit Items as a congratulatory gift for their successful Foundation Establishment.

The two were very grateful to Yang Tianyou for discovering the Spirit-Transforming Inducement Guide, because such a fundamental matter could not be made up for once it was missed.

After visiting the two, Yang Tianyou took Fengling to visit the Wolf Ancestor, bringing him some uniquely flavored Beast Meat and Spirit Cuisine.

For some reason, the Purple Moon Wolf Clan generally enjoys eating... Yang Tianyou guessed that this might be a racial characteristic?

Yang Tianyou did not obtain any information about the origin of the Purple Moon Wolf bloodline from the Wolf Ancestor, and his curiosity remained unsatisfied for the time being.

After returning from Wolf Pool, Yang Tianyou waited at home for two days before going to the Purple Moon Mountain to retrieve his knife.

However, the two knives originally became one after he got his hands on them.

This is a long sword with gold and silver interwoven. The handle is long enough to be gripped with both hands. The blade is narrow at the front and wide at the back, with the tip pointing upwards, forming a breathtaking arc.

The most distinctive feature is the back of the blade. After Yang Tianyou activated his Spiritual Power, a handleless throwing knife actually separated from the back of the blade.

The throwing knife was entirely silver, about three feet long, with blades at both ends, resembling a crescent moon. It was beautiful and exquisite, yet it exuded a chillingly sharp aura, as if the knife had discarded everything else, leaving only its sharpness as its sole characteristic.

He gently touched the blade with his finger, felt a slight pain, and a faint red bloodstain appeared. Given Yang Tianyou's current Fleshly Body strength, the sharpness of this crescent-shaped throwing knife was unimaginable.

According to the Old Ancestor Yang Haoyu, when she was forging the Twin Blades and the Sky-Piercing Blade, she combined the two into one, creating a Mother-and-Son Twin Blades, based on Yang Tianyou's combat characteristics and in consideration of his future life-bound Law Artifact!

The mother blade is made from the original Twin Blades, incorporating 2,500 forged Gold Essences, First-Tier Superior-Grade Spirit Gold and Profound-Weight Iron, Steel Radiance Stone. The blade is thick and sturdy, and even Foundation Establishment Cultivators cannot easily damage it, making it most suitable for close combat.

The "sub-blade," which is this crescent-shaped flying knife, is based on the Sky-Piercing Blade" and incorporates First-Tier Superior-Grade materials Crystal of Chilling Edge and Silver-Feather Copper.

The former increases sharpness, the latter increases flight speed. The combination of the two, further refined and processed by Yang Haoyu's Second-Tier Superior-Grade Artifact-Refining Technique, ultimately formed the incomparably sharp crescent-shaped throwing knife before Yang Tianyou, suitable for long-range attacks.

After forging the two swords, Yang Haoyu used the Artifact-Combining Method to combine them into one, creating the Mother-and-Son Twin Blades that are considered masterpieces even among First-Tier Supreme-Grade Law Artifact.

This sword can be used alone for either ranged or close combat; when combined with other weapons, its power is greatly increased!

Thinking of what his Old Ancestor had explained to him, Yang Tianyou gripped the sword with both hands, closed his eyes slightly, and carefully felt the new weapon.

Its pulse, structure, and every inch of its Artifact Mark flow through my heart like a gentle stream.

"Cut!"

Half an incense stick later, Yang Tianyou suddenly opened his eyes and swung his long sword violently.

In an instant, a vast expanse of golden sword energy rose from the ground, sweeping across the sky, startling the birds in the sky into fleeing in panic.

"A fine knife!"

With a sigh of admiration, Yang Tianyou put it away.

These Mother-and-Son Twin Blades consume the same amount of Spiritual Power as the original Twin Blades, but their power is 30% stronger. This is equivalent to gaining 30% more combat strength, which is quite considerable.

Moreover, this is only for close combat. If you use both swords at the same time, one for ranged attacks and one for close combat, the increase in strength will be even greater. With this, your safety will be more guaranteed in the future.

"From now on, I'll still call you Twin Blades, and that throwing knife will be called Starlight!"

In the Zhao Household's main hall halfway up the mountain in Border River Town, all was silent.

Zhao Leicong sat in the main seat, his right hand gently stroking the armrest, his face expressionless. The Zhao Household elders below him had different expressions, some solemn and some indifferent.

Unable to bear the atmosphere any longer, the burly Zhao Zongkun spoke first, "Since Yunxiao is missing, let's prepare for the worst. Let's assume the Yang Household already knows about our plan to hire the Black Sha Sect. What should we do now?"

A voice as rough as Savage Beast resounded throughout the hall. The elders of the Zhao Household family exchanged glances, and finally, it was Zhao Zongbin, the Lineage, who spoke.

"Fourth Uncle, Third Brother, and all the elders, I believe we should continue with the plan. When we came up with this scheme, we weren't afraid of the Yang Household finding out. Because no matter what, as long as the Yang Household wants to preserve the Dragon Valley Sect's legacy, they won't report this to the Three Rivers Sect."

Zhao Zongbin spoke eloquently, and the other elders of the Zhao Household nodded in agreement.

"Zong Bin, continue!" Zhao Leicong raised his hand and spoke.

Even if the Yang Household finds out about our plans, they have no choice but to passively defend themselves.

After all, the Zhao Household relies on a foundation far stronger than the Yang Household to suppress them. This is a true contest of strength, with no room for trickery.

"Even if the Yang Household manages to preserve their strength after the Cold Tide, the Black Sha Sect can hold them off, buying time for our Zhao Household to purchase Golden Core Formation Pill. Once our Old Ancestor breaks through to the Golden Core stage, we'll wipe out the Yang and Mu families in one fell swoop with Thunder force!"

Zhao Zongbin spoke with great enthusiasm and confidence, which inspired the other elders of the Zhao Household, who gradually relaxed.

"Very good, what Zong Bin said is exactly what I wanted to say. My Zhao Household has a history of hundreds of years and a profound foundation. Coupled with the rich harvest in the Dragon Valley Hall, even if we take out 200,000 Spirit Stones, the rest will be enough to push me to the Golden Core. You don't need to worry. Just do your own thing. With me in the Zhao Household, we will not fall!"

Zhao Leicong waved his hand, his sleeves fluttering wildly, and his words were extremely domineering, causing many Zhao Household elders to look at him with reverence.

After an incense stick had burned, the elders of the Zhao Household dispersed, leaving only Zhao Leicong, Zhao Zongkun, and the family head Zhao Zongbin.

At this moment, the latter's expression turned serious, his previous ease gone. He asked Zhao Leicong, "Fourth Uncle, is there really no problem with the Xiang Household?"

As the head of the Zhao Household family, Zhao Zongbin was naturally aware of the relationship between Zhao Leicong and the Xiang Household.

"You don't need to worry about that. With my mother's connections, the Xiang Household will still do me this favor." Hearing this, Zhao Zongbin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He smiled and said, "The Yang Household is still unaware of our relationship with the Xiang Household. They probably still think our Zhao Household will buy Golden Core Formation Pills from the Luochuan Sect!"

"Hahaha, if my fourth uncle hadn't said it himself, I wouldn't have believed it either. My Zhao Household could actually be related to a Nascent Soul clan like the Xiang Household."

Zhao Zongkun crossed his arms and chuckled softly.

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. If the Yang Household finds out, it will only add to the risks."

Zhao Leicong stopped his two nephews from talking and warned them not to reveal a single word about this matter except to a few people in the core of the Lineage.

Zhao Zongkun and Zhao Zongbin readily agreed and then left, leaving only Zhao Leicong in the main hall.

He stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the palace above, his eyes deep and tinged with a hint of helplessness. "The Xiang Household... sigh..."
