Wait, How Did My Digital Girlfriend Become a Sword Immortal? Chapter 795: Do you have a wife?
Chapter 795: Do you have a wife?
Who in their right mind gives away swords upon first meeting?
No, it should be said, who gives away treasures!
Cain stared at the sword Chen Huaian had produced, his eyes gleaming.
But he also knew the principle that unsolicited favors are never without ulterior motives.
So his first reaction was vigilance, pondering what intentions this man, who gave him an immense sense of pressure, might have.
"Just answering a question gets me this sword?"
He took half a step back, pointing at the sword in Chen Huaian's hand.
"Correct. Don't dawdle. If you keep dawdling, This Venerable One can just give it to someone else."
"Then ask.""I and your mother..."
"I don't have a mother," Cain said with utmost seriousness. "But if you wish for me to have one, I can use blood energy to create one. I do have a father... strictly speaking, it wasn't really a father either. It was a blood bat, the true progenitor of all Blood Clan. But it's long dead..."
The corner of Chen Huaian's mouth twitched. "Do you have a wife?"
"I have a few tools for venting desires," Cain smacked his lips. "A few young female celebrities from the European region, quite tasty. If you need one, I can gift you one."
Chen Huaian, as if he hadn't heard Cain's words, calmly said, "If This Venerable One and your wife fell into the water, and neither of us could swim, who would you save first?"
Cain stared blankly at Chen Huaian.
He couldn't fathom how Chen Huaian could ask such an idiotic question.
The key point was, what necessary connection did this question have with obtaining that sword?
Soon, he realized.
This cultivator from the Hua region was just here to mess with him!
Perhaps no matter what he answered, this cultivator would say—sorry, your answer is wrong, so this sword cannot be given to you.
"I can save both," Cain decided. Since any answer seemed irrelevant, he wouldn't limit himself to choosing one.
"I am the most powerful monster leader in the European region. Just by flapping my wings, I can pluck you both from the water. There's no need to prioritize at all."
"Wow!" Chen Huaian's eyes lit up, his face full of admiration and appreciation. "You truly are a warm-hearted vampire."
With that, he tossed the sword into Cain's arms. "Here, these ten swords are for you. This Venerable One is quite satisfied with your answer."
Cain fumbled to catch the ten swords, standing frozen in place.
Bewildered, confused, and utterly incredulous.
But the treasure was indeed now in his hands.
He casually picked out one sword to admire before his eyes, thinking to himself that back when he was fighting against the Sanctuary, if he had possessed such a sword, he wouldn't have been forced to flee everywhere.
Now, he had managed to grow strong enough to contend with those two monsters from the Sanctuary only by relying on his nearly unkillable ability. Only he knew the hardships involved.
"You're just... giving this sword to me?" He wanted to confirm with Chen Huaian again.
But he saw that Chen Huaian had long since vanished from before him. Looking around, he realized this Eastern cultivator had actually run over to the side of those two monsters from the Sanctuary.
Cain: "..."
He wouldn't just give away a few precious swords to those two Sanctuary monsters for free too, would he?
Then what did that make him?
He thought he was the special one!
Chen Huaian didn't care what Cain was thinking. He smiled as he looked at the Pope and the Knight Commander of the Sanctuary. "This Venerable One finds the two of you have a kind and familiar countenance, a real connection. How about answering This Venerable One a question? If This Venerable One finds the answer satisfactory, I can give these swords to you two~ For free~"
As he spoke, he displayed the large handful of swords in his arms to the Pope and the Knight Commander.
Chen Huaian had thought his enthusiasm would be met with kindness.
However, the Sanctuary's Pope remained silent.
The Knight Commander merely cast a cold gaze his way.
"Please return to your original position, Eastern cultivator. We are not that familiar!" The Knight Commander shifted the greatsword in his hand, producing a dull, heavy thud. "We have no need for your swords. Moreover, these slender swords of yours are rather laughable compared to my greatsword! I hope they won't be shattered by my greatsword when we compete for the treasure later!"
The corner of Chen Huaian's mouth twitched again.
If he wasn't mistaken, this Knight Commander's greatsword was a weapon forged from mundane materials, right? Its seemingly extraordinary appearance was due to the holy light infused within it. This greatsword had probably been tempered by holy light for some years, giving it a slight semblance of a magical artifact.
But having the semblance of a magical artifact was not the same as being a true magical artifact.
With a poor foundation, the weapon's ceiling was fixed. Even if it merely clashed with an ordinary magical flying sword from the Cangyun Realm, it would only shatter, let alone against the supreme-grade ones in his hands.
"Well then, it's your own choice to refuse."
Chen Huaian turned and left.
He did intend to give away swords, but not to the point of pressing them on an unreceptive audience. Besides, there wasn't much time left before the Celestial Jade Marrow eruption. He couldn't be bothered to argue with these two blockheads from the Sanctuary.
His plan was nearly complete.
Next was to watch and wait for developments.
"Senior Chen, you... why are you even giving these precious swords to these foreign individuals?" Hua Jin the True One finally couldn't hold back.
When Chen Huaian gave swords to the Ascender sect disciples, she could still convince herself—this was the senior boosting the Ascenders' strength, enabling them to crusade against Chen Niu and the evil demons, allowing the Ascenders to continue their greatness.
But giving them to Cain? She couldn't understand that.
As the saying goes, those not of our kind surely have different hearts.
Cain was ambitious. Talking about cooperation was just a superficial alliance. Once it came to seizing benefits, Cain would absolutely be the first to turn hostile.
What difference was there between giving precious swords to Cain and supplying the enemy?!
"Hua Jin, more friends mean more paths," Chen Huaian waved a hand dismissively. "This Venerable One has many more such swords. Besides, since This Venerable One is the one who forged these swords, naturally I can also control them. So rest assured."
Hearing Chen Huaian say this, Hua Jin the True One understood.
"So that's how it is. This junior was overthinking."
So it was all part of Senior Chen's scheme!
At this moment, Hua Jin the True One's admiration for Chen Huaian surged like a mighty river.
These swords might seem like free gifts, but in reality, they remained under Senior Chen's control. So, was it possible that at some critical moment, these flying swords would turn against their users, delivering a fatal blow to those who sought easy gains?
They were essentially time bombs!
And time bombs that everyone would find hard to refuse.
The fact that the Sanctuary's Pope and Knight Commander didn't take them actually earned them a bit of respect.
Chen Huaian didn't know what Hua Jin the True One was thinking.
But this time, Zhang Yibai and Gu Changsheng hadn't come. Everything needed to be managed by him.
This reduced the risk of Zhang Yibai and Gu Changsheng being targeted by Chen Niu's true form.
And while he currently appeared to be sitting upright and proper, he had already secretly activated the Sect Summoning Token.
After reaching the Unity Realm,
the Sect Summoning Token could not only summon two Void Shattering cultivators but also allowed him to decide the landing location of those summoned.
Activating the Sect Summoning Token this way could be done much more covertly.
