Chapter 31: 31

“It would be impolite for me to refuse this gift.” Lin Bai clasped his hands and bowed. He was already overjoyed inside.

Old Bai nodded. He was very satisfied with Lin Bai’s personality and said, “The first gift is a gift from me, a Heaven-Rank Hunter.”

Lin Bai was stunned.

Even if he couldn’t understand just how powerful a Heaven-Rank Hunter was, he could at least understand how difficult it was to obtain this gift. In fact, it was something that could only be chanced upon by luck.

However, Lin Bai still had some questions. Thus, he asked, “But senior, your soul is damaged, so you can’t leave this place. How…”

Old Bai laughed out loud. “Even so, you’re underestimating me too much.”

He took out a black seal and placed it in Lin Bai’s hand. Then, he said, “This is my personal seal. I’ve already hired someone to embed a teleportation formation into it. When you need it, you just need to pour your magic power into it. Then, I’ll receive the signal and immediately teleport to your location.”

“Although my soul is damaged, it’s not a problem for me to stay outside for an hour or so. You don’t think that you can create a huge problem that even a Heaven-Rank Hunter can’t solve before you complete my request, right?”

Lin Bai said half-jokingly, “Who knows.”

Old Bai flashed a refreshing smile and said, “Then I’m looking forward to where you will use this!”

Then, he retracted his smile and said, “This second gift is a weapon.”

“A weapon!?” Lin Bai was shocked.

Weapons were external objects that Hunters relied on the most. In battle, they would often be able to grasp the initiative and turn the situation around with weapons.

The grades of weapons were simply divided into the Low-, Mid-, and High-Grades.

“This is a magical artifact that I collected many years ago. However, it is of the darkness attribute, so it cannot be used by me. Today, I met you, so I’m giving it to you.”

“This saber is known as the Demon Blade. I believe you’ve heard of its creator. Its creator is the God’s Forger, Xiao Chen.”

“The Demon Blade? Xiao Chen?” Lin Bai repeated in shock. It was not that he had never heard of these names before, but it was precisely because they were too well-known that he could not react in time.

Xiao Chen’s name was known by everyone in the world.

The weapons he produced had already surpassed the three weapon grades. Instead, he had developed a new level — divine weapons.

Later on, there were also descendants who created magical artifacts that reached the realm of divine artifacts. However, as the founder, Xiao Chen was remembered by the world.

“This saber was forged when I visited Xiao Chen’s disciple, Luo Yu, to befriend him. He then gave it to me. It was made when Xiao Chen was young. Therefore, its level is not high and it is only a Middle-Grade weapon.”

“However, Xiao Chen creatively added a strand of his soul into this blade, allowing it to possess a trace of intelligence. When it drinks blood from a hundred people, it will awaken and its grade will increase. At the same time, because of its bloodthirsty nature, it is also known as the Demon Blade.”

“Something worthy of mentioning is that this Demon Blade is made of two parts, the Yin and the Yang. I only obtained one of them. I’ve heard that when the two parts fuse into one, its strength will increase by another level.”

Lin Bai was rather speechless when he heard this. He had never thought that there would be such a profound mystery behind the Demon Blade.

He tried his best to hide the ecstasy in his heart. Then, he asked respectfully and humbly, “May I know what the two parts of the Demon Blade are called?”

“The Demon Blade is made up of two parts, the Yin and the Yang. This blade makes up the Yin and is called Kakura. Meanwhile, the Yang is called Shakya. Whether or not you can obtain it will depend on your luck and destiny.”

Lin Bai nodded and accepted the blade from old Bai.

This was the Demon Blade, Kakura.

Its entire body was bronze in color and it gave off a sense of vicissitudes of time. It also exuded a cold and sinister aura. Just touching it made one shudder.

Lin Bai held the heavy Kakura in his hand and felt rather excited inside. He had never thought that his trip to the city library would bring him so many unexpected gains.

Old Bai stood up and dusted off the dust on his body. Meanwhile, Lin Bai stood up and stretched his tense muscles.

“Since that’s the case, this must have been a rewarding journey for you.” Old Bai smiled and said, “If there’s nothing else, then go back. I want to rest.”

Lin Bai bowed gratefully and left.

Although he did not know Bai Yin’s identity, Lin Bai did not ask.

After all, Lin Bai did not want to get too involved with his sad past.

It was not his style to expose people’s scars.

…

Outside the main entrance.

The guard was still trembling in fear as he thought about how he should clean up the mess when the young man came out.

After hesitating for a while, he used the voice transmission stone to contact the curator of the city library, Apollo.

Apollo was in disbelief when he heard that a young man had entered the room of forbidden books.

In his mind, only the mayor of Orlando City had the right to give anyone access to the room.

Moreover, the mayor’s disappointing son seemed to have similar rights.

However, he could authorize personnel to enter the city library for only a day.

No matter how he thought about it, these three people did not seem like people who would give such important authority to a young person.

Thus, Apollo could only suspect that this young man had used some underhanded means to deceive everyone.

Apollo rushed to the fifth floor in a hurry. When he saw the terrified security guard, he consoled him before opening the door to enter the room of forbidden books.

However, the moment Apollo placed his hand on the stone pillar, the door to the room opened with a loud bang.

The person who had come out was Lin Bai.

He was even equipped with an old-looking blade.

What was even stranger was that weapons were prohibited in the room of forbidden books.

Thus, Apollo shot a strange look at the guard.

The security guard quickly waved his hands and shirked the responsibility. “When he just entered, he definitely didn’t have such a blade!”

Now, the pressure was on Lin Bai.

He wasn’t sure if it would be appropriate for him to speak of this matter in public.

Lin Bai stuttered, not knowing how to explain himself.

“Did you steal this from the room of forbidden books?” Apollo looked at Lin Bai suspiciously, his voice filled with distrust.” I remember that the room of forbidden books does have some antique weapons. They’re quite similar to this blade.”

Lin Bai was rather helpless when faced with this sudden slander.

According to Apollo, Lin Bai seemed to have become a thief who had broken into the room of forbidden books.

At that moment, Old Bai’s voice echoed through the entire fifth level. It was loud and powerful, giving off a sense of power.

“This blade is a gift from me to this young man. There’s no problem with it. Just let him pass and don’t make things difficult for him.”

Upon hearing the voice coming from the room of forbidden books, the security guard was naturally dumbfounded. However, Apollo’s expression changed instantly and turned pale.

He naturally knew that Old Bai was living in seclusion in the room of forbidden books…
