Chapter 1511 — Chapter 1511 Zi Xuan

1511 Zi Xuan

Upon Tian Qiyuan's request to learn more about her, Zi Xuan did not hesitate to reveal everything about herself to him, including personal information that one usually wouldn't reveal even to their loved ones.

"I enjoy reading scriptures every now and then, and my hobby is collecting swords. I haven't eaten anything in the last hundred years, but if I were to eat something right now, it would be a spicy dish."

"I like swords, and there are too many things I dislike to list, but if I had to name a few, it would be pesky people and men who only think with their lower swords."

"I don't mind perverted men as I am quite perverted myself, but there is a difference between lustful and being lecherous. When I am feeling lustful, I like to use the swords in my collection to relieve myself. By the way, your swords are the best. They make me go crazy, something other swords cannot replicate."

"..."

Behind his mask, Tian Qiyuan's eyes widened in surprise, his disbelief evident. Was she toying with him, or was she genuinely like this? He had always known Zi Xuan to be eccentric, but this was a whole new level.

He cleared his throat and said, "W-why don't you tell me about your background? How did you grow up and become the person you are today."

Zi Xuan pondered for a moment before responding, "I was born in the Unrivaled Nine Swords Sect. My mother was a Sect Elder, so I spent the majority of my life there. I touched my first sword when I was one year old and started training with one when I was only five years old."

"I learned Sword Aura ten years later, Enhanced Sword Aura after another hundred years, and attained Sword Body at three thousand years old. I became an official disciple of the Unrivaled Nine Swords Sect at 10 years old and was promoted to Inner Disciple three years later. On my eighteenth birthday, I became a Core Disciple. Ten years later, I became a Sect Elder. After another fifty years, I replaced one of the Nine Unrivaled Swords by defeating him in an official match."

"Since then, I began working toward a level that surpasses Enhanced Sword Aura. It took a hundred thousand years, but I've managed to achieve just that, and I named it Supreme Sword Aura. Oh, I started collecting swords when I was sixteen years old."

Tian Qiyuan listened to her history with interest. This was his first time encountering someone as talented as Zi Xuan when it came to the sword.

To achieve a Sword Body at two thousand years old was incredibly gifted, a talent seen once every hundred million years.

After telling him her entire life story, Zi Xuan suddenly stood up and asked, "Want to see my sword collection? It's mostly your swords, though."

"Sure. It would help me understand your taste for swords a little more." Tian Qiyuan nodded and followed her to the collection.

Sometime later, they arrived before a sealed door.

"I called this the Sword Vault, and once again, you're the first person besides myself to see it."

Zi Xuan removed the seal and opened the door, revealing the room on the other side.

The room was huge, taking up most of the building, but fewer than a hundred swords were on display, even though it could easily hold hundreds of thousands.

"This room used to be more crowded, but as you saw, they're all outside now." Zi Xuan said.

Tian Qiyuan took a quick look at the swords with his divine sense. There were seventy-nine swords on display, with sixty-

nine of them being his own creation.

"You've managed to collect 69 out of the 90 treasures I've sold to the public?" Tian Qiyuan marveled at her unwavering dedication and extraordinary collection. To obtain even a single treasure crafted by his hand was a formidable feat, yet she had amassed 69 of them as a single individual.

He was aware of the high cost of his treasures, but he couldn't fathom the extent of resources she must have sacrificed to acquire these 69 weapons.

"I never thought I would collect weapons that were not swords, but your creations changed me," Zi Xuan said as she caressed a blue-bladed dagger with her slender fingers.

While some blacksmiths specialize in a single type of weapon since it's much easier to advance in their career, a true master crafts all kinds of weapons with equal excellence.

Tian Qiyuan crafted every type of weapon, but his favorite was the sword; thus, half of his creations were swords.

Zi Xuan walked over to a particular sword on display and said, "This is the first of your creations that appeared in public, and it's the sword that changed my life."

It was a mere Spirit-grade sword, but it was just as flawless as the Violet Dream in terms of quality and could easily be mistaken as a Heaven-grade—even Divine-grade treasure.

"When I first laid eyes on this sword, it made me feel emotions that I didn't know existed in me, and I knew I had to acquire it."

She grabbed the sword off the display and handed it to Tian Qiyuan.

"If you don't mind, can you hold it for me? I want to see it with its creator."

Tian Qiyuan accepted her request and held the sword in his hand. Instantly, the sword began exuding an aura that had never manifested for anyone else, not even Zi Xuan.

This left Zi Xuan bewildered.

"Ah…" she muttered in a trembling voice, her body shaking in excitement.

"I have tried, but I could never imagine it being any more perfect than it already is… but now… with it in your hands… this is true perfection!" Zi Xuan exclaimed with a crazed expression on her face, as if a switch had been flipped inside her.

She approached him and grabbed his hands, "I was only 99% convinced you were the real Exalted Blacksmith, but I am now 100 percent convinced!"
