After finishing her words, Lu Siwei was overwhelmed with tears and buried her head to weep again.
Chen Hao and the others looked at each other, uncertain what to say. If it hadn't been for Lu Siwei, perhaps Wind Girl and Chen Jing would have had a different, happy ending by now.
"Boyfriend, indeed, those deserving pity often have hateful traits," Ye Yuqiao's voice suddenly echoed in Chen Hao's mind.
"Yeah!" Chen Hao agreed and then sighed, "But she really is quite pitiable too! The most hateful one should be Luo Pengfei, how can that guy be so vile."
"Don't get angry, even if he's bad, he'll get his comeuppance sooner or later."
"Boyfriend," suddenly, Ye Yuqiao's tone turned sorrowful, "do you think we'll ever end up like them, becoming enemies?"
"Silly girl, how could we possibly end up like them? I like you so much, and you like me so much."
"Didn't they also like each other?" Ye Yuqiao retorted.
Chen Hao sighed deeply, knowing full well that those fragile, sensitive nerves in Ye Yuqiao's heart had been stirred again.
"We don't have a Lu Siwei between us."
"But we have Lin Xiaofan and Man Qingting," Ye Yuqiao hesitated, wanting to add Tang Jing's name as well.
At that moment, Chen Hao quietly moved beside Ye Yuqiao, taking her hand in his, and thought to himself, "But we are still fine up to now. And our relationship is so good, we've hardly ever had a fight."
"Not had a fight? You once strangled my neck before."
"How can you still remember that, I've already admitted my wrongdoing."
Ye Yuqiao leaned her head slightly against Chen Hao's shoulder and said, "We will definitely not turn against each other."
Just then, Lu Siwei raised her head again.
When the expressions of grief and self-blame on her face had slightly subsided, Chen Hao couldn't contain his curiosity and asked, "Miss, do you know what Luo Pengfei's purpose was for constantly instigating you to sabotage Wind Girl and Chen Jing's relationship?"
Lu Siwei nodded, saying, "For the Five Elements Stone and to activate the Yin Yang Five Elements Reincarnation Formation."
Chen Hao, Xie Xiaofeng, and Tang Jing all let out a gasp of amazement. They were very familiar with the Yin Yang Five Elements Reincarnation Formation. The blood-red moon from last year in the maple forest on the outskirts of Y City, the unthinkable Yin Yang sky, and the beam connecting the ground to the blood moon still lingered vividly in their minds.
After a pause, Lu Siwei walked in front of Chen Hao and, pointing to the tranquil mountain lake, said, "There is a large stone at the center of this lake's bottom, and beneath that stone lies a Sealing Talisman, which conceals a mystical sword. Go quickly and retrieve it from inside."
Startled, Chen Hao nodded and then approached the lake's edge. He didn't rush to dive in. Instead, he activated his Nether Vision in his left eye to peer into the lake's center. Within two seconds, his vision pierced through the dark waters to the large stone at the bottom; then he looked past the stone and saw the Sealing Talisman underneath and a spell sword without a hilt that closely resembled the Evil-Banishing Moon Sword.
After turning off his left eye's Nether Vision, Chen Hao dove like a fish into the mountain lake. Instantly, silvery ripples stirred on the surface, and the sparkling silver light was dazzlingly beautiful, mesmerizing to behold.
Five minutes later.
With a "splash," Chen Hao's head emerged from the surface of the lake, holding a magical sword in his hand.
After receiving the hiltless magical sword from Chen Hao, Lu Siwei closed her eyes, then her left thumb and index finger glided over the sword, drawing runes. The moment she withdrew her left hand, a blue light flashed on the sword, a red Sealing Talisman rune suddenly appeared and then vanished—Lu Siwei had unlocked the seal on the magical sword.
"This is the Evil-Banishing Moon Sword," Lu Siwei handed the magical sword back to Chen Hao, "This is the first item I am giving to you! As long as you grip the Evil-Banishing Moon Sword and writes a Sealing Talisman, the seal will never be broken; moreover, the effects of the Yin Yang Arts cannot dispel it either."
Hearing this, Chen Hao immediately withdrew his hand, alarmed, "Isn't that a bit too terrifying? Are you sure this sword is a magical sword and not an evil sword?"
"This sword, like the Blood Moon Evil Subduing Sword, is both righteous and evil. Whether it is righteous or evil depends on the person wielding it; there is no inherent good or evil in a sword," Lu Siwei explained.
"Beauty," Xie Xiaofeng suddenly interjected, "What is the relationship between this Evil-Banishing Moon Sword and the Blood Moon Evil Subduing Sword? Also, Chen Hao has another sword called the Blood Moon Evil Subduing Sword; these swords' names are extremely similar, with only the first character being different."
"These swords were all originally derived from the same sword—the Evil Moon Sword. Legend has it that the Evil Moon Sword originally belonged to an ancient general. After the general took this sword to the battlefield and killed many, the sword thus developed an evil aura. Since the blade of the sword resembled a crescent moon and carried evil energy, it was called the Evil Moon Sword.
During peaceful times, the sword, having not absorbed human blood for a long time, flew out of its scabbard and killed more than a hundred people in the general's residence. As a result, the general invited the most famous swordsmith and Onmyoji of the time to melt down the sword and recast it into five different swords, which the Onmyoji then took back for safekeeping. Years later, the Onmyoji grew old and passed away, but before he passed, he distributed the five swords to five different disciples."
After listening to Lu Siwei, Chen Hao pondered, "So you mean to say that besides the three I have, there are two more out there?"
Lu Siwei nodded, then pushed the Evil-Banishing Moon Sword back in front of Chen Hao.
This time, Chen Hao did not shrink back and took the sword from Lu Siwei's hands.
Afterward, Lu Siwei said to Chen Hao, "The second thing I want to give you is our Lu family's Soul Stone Transformation Technique and some unique forbidden spells."
"Ah!" Chen Hao was taken aback and then vigorously shook his head, "No, no, no, didn't you just say that only your Lu family can perform this Soul Stone Transformation Technique?"
"I have my ways!" Lu Siwei insisted.
"But why should I learn it?"
"If you want to eliminate Luo Jin, you must learn it!"
It was deep into the night.
Lu Siwei led the group to the cave where she resided.
Once inside the cave, she asked Chen Hao to sit cross-legged on the ground while she sat behind him; next, she drew a rune on Chen Hao's back with her left forefinger and middle finger and then drew another one on her own chest. Finally, she closed her eyes, brought her palms together above her head, and began muttering incantations.
A quarter of an hour later, under the watchful eyes of Ye Yuqiao, Xie Xiaofeng, and Tang Jing, a symbol glowing with golden light suddenly appeared on Chen Hao's back, and at the same time, a similar rune appeared on Lu Siwei's chest.
Following that, a wisp of yellow light, emanating Yang Energy, continually transferred from Lu Siwei to Chen Hao's body.
