A faint red mist seeped from Da Zhe's body as he lay on the sofa.
It was quickly absorbed by the pendant on the necklace around Da Zhe's neck. This key-shaped pendant was the Zhan Lu Sword... The faint red mist escaping from Da Zhe's body gradually thinned until it finally stopped.
He yawned and sat up, then loosened his neck. He immediately felt refreshed, as though he were much more comfortable.
"You're awake."
"Miss You Ye."
Da Zhe hurriedly stood up.
Maid Miss approached Da Zhe with a smile and glanced at the pendant around his neck. "Zhan Lu is a kingly sword. Although the fastest way to master the sword's power is through slaughter, too much slaughter isn't good either. That's why it instinctively helps you purify the excess killing aura in your body."
Da Zhe suddenly understood. No wonder that heavy feeling had almost disappeared after he slept.
"What are we going to do now?" Da Zhe asked, feeling completely refreshed.
"Come with me."
The place Maid Miss took Da Zhe next was the owner's study. Da Zhe had actually visited the study several times, so it wasn't unfamiliar to him.
What did this study resemble, exactly?
It was like one of those old bookstores hidden deep in a street corner, specializing in all kinds of old books, including many that were difficult to find on the market.
Under Da Zhe's curious gaze, Maid Miss walked straight to a bookshelf and waved her hand. The thick hardback books on the shelf began to tremble slightly. Soon, a thick volume flew out from the upper-right corner of the bookshelf and landed in You Ye's hand.
Maid Miss flipped through the heavy volume as she turned around.
"What's that?" Da Zhe asked curiously.
You Ye looked up and smiled.
