"Seven Kill Sword?" Xu Lanqing asked in surprise.
"What's wrong? Do you know it?"
Snow Empress set her empty bowl and spoon on the table, curious about Xu Lanqing's reaction.
"Not really."
Xu Lanqing shook his head and looked toward the wisps of morning light streaming through the window. Their brilliant glow cast a faint golden hue over everything inside.
The name Seven Kill Sword sounded exactly like the Seven Kill Sword Martial Soul from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect ten thousand years ago. He wondered if it had been passed down from them.
Thinking carefully, if these really were members of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, then they had probably bought the Seven-Colored Exquisite Stamen to evolve the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, breaking through the sect's bottleneck of ten thousand years.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda was already one of the Soul Master World's top support Martial Souls, even though its users could only cultivate to the rank of Soul Saint.
The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda was even more impressive. If they succeeded, the strength and status of the entire sect would rise dramatically.
But judging by the original story, they hadn't succeeded. He didn't know whether something had gone wrong or they'd just been unlucky.
Suddenly, a fleeting spark of inspiration made his eyes light up. He had an idea, though it was still a little unpolished.
He stood up, and Snow Empress naturally began straightening his crooked collar. Her flawless features were serene and elegant, her beautiful eyes filled with the tender warmth of melting ice.
"How long until they leave the city?"
Xu Lanqing watched as Snow Empress carefully straightened his clothes. In the golden light, the scene looked like a heartwarming painting.
