At Li Mu Yang's unusual reaction, everyone widened their eyes and watched what he was doing.
"Young Master Xiangma—did you discover something?" Wen Ruo Ruo asked.
Li Mu Yang reached into the pile of gemstones and rummaged around. Then he pulled a short, black, gleaming dagger from among the Gold Coins.
"Congratulations, Young Master Xiangma, on your first victory." Seeing that what Li Mu Yang had pulled out was merely an ordinary-looking dagger, Wu Shan Ji finally let out the breath he had been holding and said with a smile, "I wonder what the origins of this dagger are?

"Of course." Li Mu Yang's answer was decisive. "This is the Shen Nong Dagger."
"The Shen Nong Dagger?"

"Tens of millions of years ago, the ancestor of humanity, Shen Nong, tasted every kind of herb and chose seeds and grains that humanity could eat. Only then was humanity able to continue and survive," Li Mu Yang said.
"We naturally know the story of Ancestor Shen Nong tasting every herb," Wu Shanji said. "But what does this Shen Nong Dagger have to do with the ancestor?"
"This was the tool Ancestor Shen Nong used to dig up the various herbs—the Shen Nong Dagger." Li Mu Yang held up the black, gleaming dagger that appeared to be neither stone nor iron and spoke.
