Interesting Fellow! (Myriad Heaven City) (5)

“And if my deduction is correct then that means nobody in this world can wield this sword, not even one.” Haoyu spoke with a serious expression.

The shopkeeper who was with them was left dumbstruck after hearing such an explanation about the spirit weapon.

“Wait, wait, wait, this kind of information… where did you get this? It was supposed to be a secret that was only accessible to some people.” The shop said.

Little did Haoyu know that a spirit weapon was a hidden secret in this world and was not introduced to normal people.

“And the way you explain it, gives me the feeling that you’re very familiar with it. Spirit weapons are limited in this world, and only a few handfuls of people own them.”

“Oh shit, so that is the reason that she’s reacting this way. I speak so casually about this because it was a norm in my past life world.” Haoyu said inwardly.

“A-ahh! That… I read it from a book!” Haoyu said with a weird smile expression on his face.

“Damn, I couldn’t think of any believable answer right now. I hope she believes that.” Haoyu said inwardly.

Hearing that, the shopkeeper was left even more dumbstruck.

“Book, what kind of book would provide such detailed information?” She wore a sarcastic expression on her face.

“Nevermind that, seeing that you try so hard on keeping it as a secret. I won’t ask any further.” She added.

Haoyu sensed a bit of relief after knowing that she won’t ask anymore. Otherwise, he wouldn’t know what excuse he could give.

“Ahh, anyway, can I try that sword?” Haoyu suddenly asked.

“E-ehhh!!” The three girls shouted out.

A strange expression appeared on the shopkeeper’s face. “Is there something wrong with his head? He wants to try despite knowing what will happen if he fails?” She said inwardly.

“Seeing your face, I know what you’re thinking but don’t worry because I know what I’m doing. I have my ways.” Haoyu said as he tried to convince the shopkeeper.

Even though the shopkeeper disliked the idea of Haoyu testing it by himself, she couldn’t do anything as she has no right to not allow that.

“I don’t have the authority to not allow you, you know. All I can say is good luck.” She said.

“Ahh nice!” Haoyu replied with a smile.

He took deep breaths as he slowly opened the glass container.

He then closed his eyes as he touched the sword with his bare hand.

The moment his finger made contact with the sword, his connection with the outside world got cut off.

He was a little surprised with what he saw after opening his two pairs of eyes.

“Where is this place?” He mumbled.

All he could see was a completely empty space.

“Is this a sealed space?” He mumbled again.

Haoyu narrowed his eyes.

“Interesting, to be able to create a sealed space. This person is definitely not a lower world cultivator.”

…

Unbeknownst to Haoyu, only his soul was transported to the sealed space, meanwhile, his body was left with the girls.

“Mei, do you really think that he would be able to return safely?” Yao Yin asked.

“I believe in Young Master,” Mei replied.

The shopkeeper stood there for a while gaping, admiring Haoyu for his bravery, but alas, she also somehow felt regret for not refusing earlier.

“Hahh~, these girls. They don’t know how bad the situation is.” The shopkeeper wore an unhappy expression.

“Whatever, I hope he is really fine.” She said inwardly.

Time passed, Haoyu was still inside the sealed space.

“How much time has passed, I wonder.”

“There should be a reason why I got transported here.”

One hour, two hours, three hours… the flow of time continued without any problems. There’s not even a trace of living beings in the space void.

Hours and hours have passed, he used those free times to cultivate until he suddenly felt a faint trace of a living being slowly approaching him.

Without any delay, he took the initiative to open his eyes, and what he saw left him with a weird expression clearly written on his face.

“U-uhh.” He mumbled.

“Who are you?”

Standing right in front of him was a young woman with a flawless appearance.

Her features were delicate and well-formed.

Her eyes, her brows were perfectly paired well, making her extremely beautiful.

She was totally a beauty, but at the same time, she was also emitting a strange aura, making Haoyu feel somewhat uncomfortable.

Noticing the strange aura that was lingering around, Haoyu barely managed to keep his calm demeanor.

“Are you the sword spirit of this sword?” Haoyu suddenly asked with a serious expression.

“Ohoh, the charm didn’t affect him? He’s an interesting fellow!” The woman thought before starting to laugh.

“Hahaha! This is my first time in a century meeting someone like you, kid!” She said before continuing to laugh.
