“.”
“Chi Xiao, Yu Chang, Chun Jun, Yuan Tu”
The candlelight flickered, many names on the paper had been crossed out, leaving only these four.
Wei Changtian muttered thoughtfully, his expression a mixture of joy and doubt.
He had just listed all the treasures that had appeared in 《Supreme Martial Path》 and whose whereabouts he knew, and then searched them one by one using the system.
In the end, he discovered that only these four swords possessed the same "additional attribute" as the Longquan Sword.
Demonic energy, valiant energy, cultured energy, ghostly energy, plus the imperial energy of the Longquan Sword...
Clearly, each of these "attributes" corresponded to a direction of Heavenly Dao's favor for a Child of Destiny.
Based on this deduction, there should be thirteen similar weapons.
And most likely all of them are swords.
Wei Changtian felt that his guess should be correct.
However, apart from these five swords, the remaining eight swords were not mentioned in 《Supreme Martial Path》.
And even for these five known swords, not all of them were useful to Wei Changtian.
He had never seen the Children of Destiny corresponding to demonic energy and valiant energy, he didn't even know who they were, so naturally he couldn't plunder their destiny and divine beasts.
The cultured energy corresponded to Shen Ran, but Wei Changtian had only plundered a mere thirty percent of his destiny cloud goose.
The only good news was that Bai Youheng, who corresponded to ghostly energy, was already dead, and his destiny Gou Diao had been completely taken by him.
So, if he guessed correctly, after obtaining the Yuan Tu Sword, he should be able to "materialize" the Gou Diao as well, turning it into his "battle pet".
Good heavens.
How did he suddenly become a "summoner"?
Would he even need to fight himself in the future? Wouldn't it be enough to have a group of destiny divine beasts charge forward?
Hiss...
This is just too awesome!
Taking a deep breath, Wei Changtian couldn't help but indulge in the imagination of a "bright future".
But he quickly stopped fantasizing, shook his head, and looked at the list in his hand again.
He could talk about showing off later, the top priority now was to get these four swords.
Wei Changtian certainly knew where these swords were now, or who possessed them.
Then the safest method was undoubtedly for him to make a few more trips himself.
However, the battle situation at Xin Feng was now critical, and the locations of these four swords were extremely far apart, so Wei Changtian couldn't leave for the time being.
If he didn't know the secret of these swords, he would definitely put this matter aside and make plans after the battle at Xin Feng ended.
But now that he knew these four swords were extraordinary, then to prevent any unforeseen circumstances, he could only let the Xuanyi Division or the Freemasons search for the swords first.
“Shouldn't be a problem, right.”
Wei Changtian muttered to himself, his expression somewhat worried.
Under normal circumstances, with his accurate intelligence, whether it was the Xuanyi Division or the Freemasons, they should be able to find the swords smoothly.
The only thing to fear was an "abnormal" situation.
No!
Even if Xiao Feng is dead, he can't be careless!
He had to find someone capable to lead the team!
Or should he simply find Wei Xianzheng or Wei Zhaohai?
In fact, individual combat strength was not important for this mission.
What was important was that this person could act flawlessly.
So...
“Knock knock knock!”
Suddenly, a soft knock interrupted Wei Changtian's thoughts.
He glanced at the door, but didn't respond immediately, instead, he first placed the paper in his hand over the candle to burn it to ashes, then spoke:
“Come in.”
“.”
“Creak~”
A moment later, the door opened, and Yang Liushi came in.
Compared to just now, she had changed her clothes. At this time, she was holding a wooden tray with a bowl of meat porridge and a few side dishes.
Smiling, she walked closer, put down the tray, placed the bowls and dishes one by one in front of Wei Changtian, and handed him a spoon and chopsticks.
Yang Liushi's nose twitched slightly, she must have smelled the lingering burnt smell in the air.
But she didn't ask anything, just gathered her skirt and sat opposite Wei Changtian, urging softly:
“Gongzi, try it.”
“Oh, okay.”
After eating a few chopsticks of side dishes and drinking a few mouthfuls of porridge, Wei Changtian said “Not bad” on his lips, but his expression was obviously absent-minded.
Then, at a certain moment, he suddenly raised his head and asked:
“Liushi, do you think Chu Xianping's power is a little too great now?”
“Huh?”
Yang Liushi, who was helping Wei Changtian with the porridge, never expected to hear such a question, and couldn't help but be stunned.
After a long while, she placed the porridge bowl in front of Wei Changtian and asked softly:
“Why does Gongzi say that?”
“Just a little worried.”
Wei Changtian shook his head and said silently: “I don't suspect Chu Xiong of anything.”
“It's just that he is now not only the leader of the Freemasons, but also in charge of the Tianji Institute, which is responsible for all information exchange.”
“And whether it is the national affairs of Great Shu or the military affairs, he is involved.”
“Even the affairs of Kui Long are handled by him alone.”
“To put it seriously, if he really wanted to hide something from me, I'm afraid I wouldn't notice anything.”
“So…”
Wei Changtian didn't continue speaking here, but the meaning was already very clear.
His worries were not unreasonable.
Although in 《Supreme Martial Path》, Chu Xianping could be said to be loyal, and never showed any tendency to betray Xiao Feng until the finale.
But this doesn't mean that he won't betray himself.
“So Gongzi wants to seize Chu Gongzi's power?”
Yang Liushi was slightly stunned, and after pondering for a moment, she asked: “Isn't there still that kind of elixir that the people of Tongzhou Association take? Has Chu Gongzi taken this elixir?”
“Taken it.”
Wei Changtian first nodded, but quickly shook his head again.
“But I'm worried that he has a way to detoxify the elixir.”
“Is that so?”
Yang Liushi didn't continue to ask about this matter, but continued to analyze along Wei Changtian's train of thought: “But even if Chu Gongzi wants to rebel, he will always have some purpose, right.”
“Now his status in both Ning and Shu is extremely high, even if he can't be considered above ten thousand people, but he is already extremely high.”
“There are even more money and other things than he needs.”
“Then what reason does he have to betray Gongzi?”
“I don't know, just a little worried.”
Wei Changtian rubbed his forehead somewhat depressedly: “He is so smart, he should understand the principle that a good minister should not monopolize power.”
“But he has never proposed to give up part of the power in his hands.”
“What's more, I told you about Yan Huaiqing's attempt to instigate Chu Xianping, right?”
“You told me.”
Yang Liushi nodded and asked with some doubt: “But didn't Chu Gongzi tell Gongzi everything about this?”
“He told me, but that's not important.”
Wei Changtian narrowed his eyes: “What's important is those words he said to Yan Huaiqing…”
“Huh? What did he say?”
Yang Liushi first asked curiously, but before Wei Changtian could answer, her expression suddenly became surprised at a certain moment.
“Gongzi, how do you know what Chu Gongzi and Yan Huaiqing actually said?”
“Could it be…”
“Yes.”
Wei Changtian didn't hide anything, his whole person hidden in the flickering candlelight, his voice calm and cold.
“I deliberately asked Yan Huaiqing to test him.”
