A sword?

Yes, it was indeed a sword.

It was a gray, withered, and blunt wooden sword the size of a grown man’s middle finger!

It is very small, but is it really not a child’s toy?

Although he was puzzled, Su Jingxing’s countenance remained unchanged.

“Cough…”

Zhang Shanfu was a little embarrassed as well. He said in a low voice, “Um, Little Su, it may seem unremarkable, but this thing is very strange. It can’t be broken with a knife, fire won’t break it, water won’t wet it, and soil cannot bury it. It has been more than 50 years since my grandfather obtained it. It has never changed, and it still looks the same as before!”

“Is that so?”

Su Jingxing was interested now. “How did Great Grandpa Zhang get this then?”

“Fished it from the water,” Zhang Shanfu’s father replied.

“Fished… from the water?”

“To be precise, this was dug out from the belly of a fish,” Zhang Shanfu explained. “On the southern bank of the Sky Water River, my grandfather caught a two-meter-long fish. After dissecting it, he discovered this small thing in the belly.”

“Of course, it’s also possible that the big fish swallowed this and then it remained in the belly, never dissolving, never rotting, never coming out until now!”

“It’s hard to calculate how long this thing has been around for.” Su Jingxing muttered.

“Yes.” Zhang Shanfu nodded. “It’s very strange, but it’s useless. At least, we don’t know how to use it. It’s been like this for 50 years. Little Su, take it. Perhaps you can discover its secret. I believe that it will definitely show itself in your hands!”

“Uncle Zhang, you must be joking. I don’t have that ability.”

Su Jingxing rejected him with a smile. “Although this thing is useless, as you’ve said, it’s been in your family for more than fifty years. With such a long period of time, it is no different from a family heirloom. It’s very memorable, so I think we should forget about it…”

Thump!

Without another word, Zhang Shanfu dropped to his knees.

His father also knelt down.

Seeing this, the rest also followed.

“Hey, hey, don’t be like this.” Su Jingxing was speechless. Who would forcefully give things away?

He was not speaking contrary to his true intentions either. This little wooden sword was indeed strange, but Zhang Shanfu’s family did not find any secrets for more than 50 years that it was with them.

Why would there be new discoveries once it was in Su Jingxing’s hands?

But Zhang Shanfu’s actions made it clear that if Su Jingxing would not accept it, they would not get up.

Helpless, Su Jingxing could only nod. “Alright, I’ll accept it. Please get up quickly.”

“Okay, okay.” Zhang Shanfu smiled and prepared to stand up.

Pa~

From the side, his father suddenly slapped him on the back of his head.

Zhang Shanfu shuddered and continued kneeling. He quickly said, “Um, Little Su, there’s one more thing. I heard that you’re renting a house outside, right?”

“…Yes, why?” Su Jingxing was puzzled.

“Cough.” Zhang Shanfu coughed lightly and said seriously, “It’s like this. My old house has always been empty. It’s located on the southern bank of the Sky Water River. I was frightened and fell into the river this time because I went back to repair it. On the way, I accidentally discovered the monster in the water.”

“After this incident, I’ve been planning to sell the old house. When we heard that you were renting a house outside, Dad and I immediately decided to give you the house as repayment for saving me.”

“But didn’t you already give me this wooden sword?” Su Jingxing wanted to refuse.

Although he wanted a house of his own, he would not go so far as to take someone else’s old house.

“That’s different.”

Zhang Shanfu waved his hand and said, “This little thing is actually just an added extra. The house is the real repayment. Little Su, don’t think too much about it. Our family has moved into the city for almost 20 years. If we leave the old house empty without tidying up, it will become abandoned. But the maintenance will cost us quite a bit every year. Giving it to you will save us the trouble…”

Pa~

The old grandfather slapped Zhang Shanfu on the head again.

“What are you talking about?” The old man scolded with a glare, “What do you take Little Su for? Huh, what do you mean trouble? Are you really repaying his kindness? You… Are you trying to be the death of me? Ah!”

Pa! Pa! Pa!

The more he spoke, the angrier the grandfather became. He held Zhang Shanfu down and gave him a good beating.

Su Jingxing hurriedly tried to dissuade Grandpa Su. While he was placating him, he agreed, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Alright, the old house it is.

Although Zhang Shanfu’s family did not have much money, that was referring to big money.

According to Su Jingxing’s understanding, Zhang Shanfu’s house was beside a pedestrian street in the Western District. It was a residence upstairs and a shop downstairs, the kind with a small courtyard at the back.

Hence, without the old house, it did not affect them much.

In particular, the Mutated Beast in the water had been causing a lot of trouble recently. Many people had died. Now, not many people were willing to stay in the small courtyards on the southern bank. Such small courtyards at the foot of the mountain weren’t already worth much, not to mention the scare by the Mutated Beast now. Su Jingxing accepting it had indeed helped Zhang Shanfu.

Zhang Shanfu was being serious about giving him the house. Even the title deed and property rights were transferred to Su Jingxing.

After accepting the house, Su Jingxing finally had his own little nest.

To others, a small courtyard at the foot of the mountain was of little value, but Su Jingxing liked it very much.

Zhang Shanfu’s old house was less than 500 meters away from the crematorium.

It was remote and quiet, which made it convenient for Su Jingxing to cultivate.

It would be even better if he had a pet to look after the house.

For example, the big white goose in the valley of the Green Cloud Mountain Range!

Thinking of the white goose, Su Jingxing took out his little wooden sword.

Zhang Shanfu and his family had tried all sorts of methods and experiments on this wooden sword, but none of them had figured out its secret. It would probably be the same in Su Jingxing’s hands.

But if I were to bathe in the white goose’s innate divine power and strange silver glow, would I discover anything?

The secret hidden in the secret manual of Eight Steps Rising Dragon had reappeared thanks to the strange silver glow.

Su Jingxing thought for a moment and decided to give it a try.

Of course, this matter was not urgent for now. After all, it had already waited for more than 50 years.

Wan Rong was coming back soon.

Su Jingxing prepared to get his revenge and dispel the Original Su Jingxing’s obsession before going to the valley.

…

With his own home, Su Jingxing moved house the next day.

Zhang Shanfu’s old house had just been renovated. He could move in after changing the furniture and bedding.

Initially, Su Jingxing had planned to hack into the lottery and get some prize money to buy an old-fashioned small courtyard like this.

Now that he had the house, there was naturally no need to do that.

Unexpectedly.

While Su Jingxing had already given up on hacking, he really struck the lottery!

He was really lucky.

Third prize, after deducting taxes, there were still more than one million Great Yu dollars!

Su Jingxing was overjoyed.

It would be a waste to not take this money. Of course, I will have to disguise myself when I go to pick up the money.

If he did not get Zhang Shanfu’s old house, Su Jingxing was planning to go pick up the lottery reward from the hacking with his true appearance.

All was great now, it had saved him a lot of trouble.

…

And with this luck, there was no way to block it.

After only one day, Su Jingxing woke up in the morning and suddenly received a notification from the Ethereal Sword Immortal’s online lucky draw.

He quickly turned on his computer and logged onto one of Yu Nation’s three major social networking sites, Big Fish Forum.

Ethereal Sword Immortal’s luck draw this time was held in this forum.

After announcing the website, the lucky draw would begin half an hour later.

Su Jingxing, who was already prepared, hacked into the back-end of Big Fish Forum and interfered with the process.

And as it turned out…

He successfully won!
