Chapter 867 Celestial Thearch Sword, Grotto-Heaven's Storehouse (2)

"I--" Before Zheng Jingyun could say anything, he was already sent flying far away by an unparalleled force and instantly disappeared.

Ji Lutian opened his mouth and was about to speak when he suddenly saw Zhou Shu look over. He swallowed the words he was about to say.

"King Zhou, you've become stronger again." Ji Lutian's countless thoughts turned into one sentence.

Before this, Zhou Shu's strength was definitely not enough to send an expert like Zheng Jingyun flying with a single strike, although this was also because Zheng Jingyun had underestimated him.

"It's not that I've become stronger but that this sword is strong enough." Zhou Shu shook his head. "Zheng Jingyun is a fool. This Celestial Thearch Sword was forged from his ancestor's paragon bone. It's hard to say for others, but people surnamed Zheng will naturally be suppressed. There doesn't need to be a reason for why a grandfather beats his grandson. How can he do anything?"

"I see." Ji Lutian nodded and felt a little better. So it was the suppression of the weapon. If Zhou Shu's strength had really increased to this extent, even Ji Lutian would feel a little uncomfortable.

They were already considered geniuses, and they had strength comparable to the peak of the Grotto-Heaven realm and had gone through countless hardships. In the end, Zhou Shu seemed to be able to defeat Zheng Jingyun easily. How could he not feel sad?

"This sword is called the Celestial Thearch Sword?" Ji Lutian looked at the sword in Zhou Shu's hand.

"I wanted to call it the Xuan-Yuan Sword, but I still feel that the Celestial Thearch Sword is more suitable for it. Since it was forged from a paragon bone, the name Celestial Thearch is appropriate," Zhou Shu said.

"Xuan-Yuan Sword?" Ji Lutian smacked his lips. Although he didn't understand what Xuan-Yuan meant, he felt that it was impressive.

"The name Celestial Thearch Sword is very good." Ji Lutian nodded.

In comparison, the name Celestial Thearch Sword was easier to understand.

"Mr. Ji, who are you going to give this Celestial Thearch Sword to?" Zhou Shu asked.

"I'm not giving it to anyone." Ji Lutian shook his head. "Since it has already chosen you as its master, I'll give you this Celestial Thearch Sword."

"Give it to me?" Zhou Shu said. "Mr. Ji, you've misunderstood. I have no intention of coveting it."

Even though he said this, he couldn't hide the love in his eyes for the Celestial Thearch Sword.

But love was love. Zhou Shu loved every divine weapon he forged. Loving something didn't mean that he had to take it for himself. He had an agreement with Ji Lutian, so he wouldn't go so far as to be a villain who didn't keep his promises.

"I know." Ji Lutian nodded. "Only a fool like Zheng Jingyun would suspect that a forger did something when forging. He doesn't understand the professional integrity of forgers.

"I believe that you don't covet the Celestial Thearch Sword. The divine weapon has a spirit, and it has already chosen you. Even if you forcefully give it to someone else, it might not be willing. This isn't a good thing for the person who accepts the Celestial Thearch Sword.

"And I think it might suit you better."

"It does suit me." Zhou Shu nodded. "In that case, I won't reject anymore. I'll accept this Celestial Thearch Sword.

"But I'm not someone who takes advantage of others. The main material of this Celestial Thearch Sword is the paragon bone you've smelted for ten thousand years. I can't give you back something of similar value. How about I replace it with five connate divine weapons?"

"That would be great." Ji Lutian smiled. The two of them were not petty people. In a few words, they had already decided on the ownership of the Celestial Thearch Sword.

At this moment, Zheng Jingyun flew back in exasperation.

Although his face was full of anger, he was extremely afraid of Zhou Shu's sword strike just now. He stopped a few hundred meters away.

"Let me ask you again. Are you going to return the sword or not?!" Zheng Jingyun shouted. "Do you want to fight our Sima Grotto-Heaven to the death?"

Without waiting for Zhou Shu to speak, Ji Lutian stepped forward. "Zheng Jingyun, you're not the master of the Sima Grotto-Heaven. You can't represent the Sima Grotto-Heaven! I've already given him the Celestial Thearch Sword. If you have any objections, keep them to yourself.

"If you're really unconvinced, don't blame me for complaining to your father!"

"Are you scaring me with my father? Do you think I, Zheng Jingyun, am afraid?" Zheng Jingyun glared at him.

The next moment, he saw Zhou Shu raise the Celestial Thearch Sword again, and his heart skipped a beat. He retreated several kilometers away with a whoosh and held the Compliant Golden-Hooped Rod with both hands, looking vigilant.

Zhou Shu was somewhat speechless. Isn't this guy's reaction a little too intense? Am I that scary?

"Zheng Jingyun, the Celestial Thearch Sword is in my hands. If you want it, fine. I will give you a chance," Zhou Shu said.

Zheng Jingyun's eyes flashed.

Ji Lutian's heart sank. Oh no, Zhou Shu is going to mess with him!

Zheng Jingyun didn't know who Zhou Shu was, but Ji Lutian had been paying attention to Zhou Shu for a long time. Although Zhou Shu looked like a good person on the surface, he was actually very mischievous.

Ordinary people wouldn't forge a palace for a Demon King and leave him with an empty shell in the end. He had taken away the lifetime treasures of countless Demon Kings and Great Demons. In the end, the other party even thanked him profusely!

After being framed, ordinary people who didn't have the strength would endure it and only take revenge when they were capable. But what about Zhou Shu? He had silently robbed the other party's storehouse. Most importantly, not only did the other party not find out, he had even robbed them a second time. He was simply raising the other party like a sheep.

It was too difficult to take advantage of such a person.

But it was precisely because of this that Ji Lutian greatly admired Zhou Shu's actions at the Treasure Distribution Rock.

He was clearly a greedy person, but he was willing to give away so many connate divine weapons for free. If he didn't have righteousness and the human race in his heart, how could he have done this?

Zheng Jingyun was really courting death by wanting to snatch the Celestial Thearch Sword from him.

Just as Ji Lutian was about to stop him, he heard Zheng Jingyun say, "What are your conditions? I, Zheng Jingyun, am not an unreasonable person. You've worked hard to forge this sword. My Sima Grotto-Heaven won't mistreat you!"

Zhou Shu's lips curled up slightly. "We can make a bet. If you win, the Celestial Thearch Sword is yours. If you lose, I don't have any other requests. Your Sima Grotto-Heaven also has a forging legacy. I just need to go to the storehouse of your forging workshop and choose a few forging materials."

Ji Lutian smiled wryly in his heart. As expected, he's targeting the storehouse of the Sima Grotto-Heaven. He really likes the storehouses of grotto-heavens.

"Brother Zhou, please show mercy. The Sima Grotto-Heaven is not an enemy." Ji Lutian smiled bitterly.

In front of Zheng Jingyun, he didn't call him King Zhou.

"Don't worry, Mr. Ji. I still owe Zheng Chengan a favor. I won't go overboard," Zhou Shu said with a smile.

When he said this, Ji Lutian felt even more uncertain. He wouldn't go overboard, meaning he would still teach Zheng Jingyun a lesson.

"Ji Lutian, do you think I'll definitely lose?" Zheng Jingyun said angrily. "I admit that he's very strong, but I'm not a pushover. I wasn't prepared just now. If we fight now, it's still uncertain who will win!"

Zheng Jingyun looked at Zhou Shu. "Kid, tell me. How do you want to bet with me? I'm not afraid to tell you that I, Zheng Jingyun, have never lost a bet."

The corners of Zhou Shu's mouth curled up slightly. "That's for the best. I'm also afraid that winning too easily will be meaningless.

"There's no enmity between us. There's no need to fight and kill. Zheng Jingyun, you're from the Sima Grotto-Heaven, and the Sima Grotto-Heaven has a legacy of forging techniques. How about we compete in forging?"

Zheng Jingyun's eyes widened as he panted heavily. "You're doing it on purpose, aren't you? You know I don't know how to forge! We are making a bet, not competing. Are you stupid?"
