It could be said that this sword had accompanied Emperor Yuan for most of his life, and its symbolic significance was no less than that of being present in person.

 

This was also why Zong Luo felt desperate when he saw Zhanlu and the handwritten imperial edict in his previous life.

 

Emperor Yuan drew his sword and easily made a sword flower. (TL: sword movement like drawing a flower)

 

The treasure sword was a treasure sword, even if it had not been used for many years, even when unsheathed, there was no stagnation.

 

“You come here.” He beckoned to Zong Luo, retracted Zhanlu into the scabbard, flattened his palm, placed it behind the hilt, and gently pushed.

 

In the next second, like a magic trick, the hilt that was just fine suddenly opened a gap, revealing a square and upright empty box inside.

 

“Qiankun inside the sword?!” Zong Luo was deeply shocked. (TL: Qiankun-like those Qiankun pouches or bags in wuxia that are able to hold more than it appears able to carry)

 

Among the top ten swords in the world, five of them were cast by Ou Yezi, the sword casting master of the previous dynasty, who had already ascended to immortality, leaving countless legendary stories.

 

It was said that Ou Yezi left a “Qiankun inside the Sword” in his most satisfied works. If one was lucky enough to find it, one could get the precious treasure left by Ou Yezi inside.

 

The swords cast by Ou Yezi, the most famous were Qixing Longyuan, Zhanlu, Tai’A, Ju Que, and Yu Chang. Among them, the Yu Chang Sword was an assassin’s soft sword, which couldn’t leave room for the Qiankun in the Sword, and the Ju Que Sword had been missing for hundreds of years.

 

The remaining three that could be traced were Qixing Longyuan in Zong Luo’s hand, Tai’A in Yu Beizhou’s hand, and Zhanlu in Emperor Yuan’s hand.

 

Tai’A was an evil sword. After it was made, Ou Yezi threw it down the mountain and ignored it. Zhanlu was the Sword of Benevolence. After it was made, it was presented to the emperor of the previous dynasty. Only Qixing Longyuan, Ou Yezi was not stingy with his love for it, often boasting in public.

 

So both the world and the sword casting master guessed that the Qiankun inside the Sword would be hidden by Ou Yezi on Qixing Longyuan.

 

Zong Luo also deeply agreed.

 

When his master Guiguzi gave him this sword, Zong Luo often touched the hilt, trying to see where the Qiankun inside the Sword was hidden in Qixing Longyuan. But for many years, he had not been able to find any clues.

 

Today, he realized that the Qiankun inside the Sword was actually hidden by Ou Yezi on Zhanlu!

 

Speaking of the Qiankun inside the Sword, it was actually just a few inches of opening in a very clever position on the hilt, where one could put things in.

 

Emperor Yuan sighed. “Zhen once suffered a serious injury on the battlefield, and it was unintentionally that Zhen opened the Qiankun inside the Sword and took the divine medicine left by Ou Yezi inside, simply regaining life.”

 

No wonder it’s empty inside, there’s nothing, it turned out it was taken by Emperor Yuan long ago.

 

Who would have thought that what Ou Yezi left in the Qiankun inside the Sword was a divine medicine. This was indeed considered a precious treasure, after all, for those who use swords, a divine pill that could save a life was always more effective than the understanding of forging swords.

 

Zong Luo was amazed for a while, and it wasn’t until Emperor Yuan stuffed Zhanlu into his hand that he didn’t react. “Father Emperor?”

 

“From now on, this sword is yours.”

 

Emperor Yuan said lightly, as simple as eating and drinking, “It suits you better than Qixing Longyuan.”

 

Zong Luo was startled, and suddenly couldn’t hold steady Zhanlu in his hand, and fell to the ground with a “clang”.

 

In fact, when his master Guiguzi gave him Qixing Longyuan, he also said similar words.

 

“The top ten famous swords in the world are either lost or owned. Although Qixing Longyuan is good, the width of the sword is a bit narrower than what you usually use. It’s a pity that Zhanlu already has a master, otherwise it would be the most suitable sword for you.”

 

At that time, although he had heard these words, Zong Luo did not take them to heart.

 

Only his master would be so picky. In fact, he was so happy when he got this world-famous Qixing Longyuan, how could he fantasize about the treasure sword of the tyrant father who had not met at that time.

 

Who would have thought that after all the twists and turns, this sword would be given to him by Emperor Yuan in this life.

 

The emperor frowned. “Why can’t you even hold a sword steady? If you can’t hold a sword steady, how can you stabilize the world?!”

 

“Father Emperor, this is really too precious. Moreover, Zhanlu is still your sword, this son dares not accept it!”

 

The prince in white picked up Zhanlu, and the heavy feeling in his arms was like a dreamlike unreality.

 

The sword that was given to commit suicide in his previous life was now given to him by Emperor Yuan himself.

 

“Zhen is the emperor, and is no longer a general.”

 

Emperor Yuan said coldly. “Although this sword is good, if it follows Zhen, it can only be buried in the imperial mausoleum in the future. If it is with you, it can witness the feat of unifying the world, isn’t it better?”

 

What’s more…….

 

Emperor Yuan picked up the scabbard and threw it to him.

 

After a while, he said unexpectedly. “Since you have taken the sword, don’t do anything foolish for Zhen.”

 

Zong Luo was stunned.

 

He remembered what Emperor Yuan had just said about dreaming of committing suicide under the Imperial City.

 

That’s right, if Emperor Yuan had dreamed of it, how could he not tell whether he was holding Qixing Longyuan or Zhanlu in his hand.

 

Zong Luo couldn’t determine what Emperor Yuan dreamed of, but he knew that perhaps his Father Emperor didn’t know what happened in the dream, only then would he give Zhanlu to him.

 

And tell him not to do anything foolish.
