The Eastern Continent Swordsman

CH. 24 – Owner Legitimate Heritage Black

Zhou Fu and Shen Shen Shen were still floating in the same place while waiting for news from the three shipmen who were helping them. It was already noon and the three officers who had brought Zhou Fu's last treasure did not reveal their nostrils.

Shen Shen rubbed the sweat that began to pour on his forehead, occasionally he also glanced at Zhou Fu who was busy practicing sword swinging. There was an annoyed expression on Shen Shen's face when his glance did not make Zhou Fu react at all. As Shen Shen stole a glance, Zhou Fu never once set his eyes on Shen Shen. Zhou Fu is enjoying his new toy, Rao Guohoa's heirloom sword.

Shen Shen's efforts to get Zhou Fu's attention were fruitless. Feeling that the trick was not working, Shen Shen was forced to change his strategy, taking a deep breath before shouting a long sentence at Zhou Fu.

“We've been floating here long enough! The sun is now directly overhead, and we just float here doing nothing? You're still sane aren't you?” Shen Shen softened his lips as he could not help but be annoyed, “I hate heat. I hate to sweat! I am hungry and thirsty too! Can't you do something?” cerocos Shen Shen with both hands moved here and there to clarify his sense of regret.

Zhou Fu stopped his sword swing for a moment, then pointed the tip of the sword right at Shen Shen's chin. There was not a single word Zhou Fu said, making Shen Shen suddenly attacked by an awkward worry. Shen Shen gulped slowly, his sweat rolling along with the tip of Zhou Fu's sword that had not yet moved from his chin.

“You hungry? Same. You thirsty? Same. You tired? Same. How about you get me some food, bring me a drink?” Zhou Fu suddenly spoke in a fairly flat tone.

Shen Shen gripped his clothes with both hands. He had never expected Zhou Fu to say something he had never thought of before. Shen Shen only realized that Zhou Fu was not his messenger, not his subordinate, not his bodyguard. Living as a noble princess has made Shen Shen spoiled, complaining, and demanding to always be satisfied. He forgot that Zhou Fu had no obligation to help him.

“M... Sorry... A... I seem presumptuous..” Shen Shen uttered a sentence that seemed to have first come out of his mouth during this time. He felt guilty for bothering a good person who was even willing to help him despite having to go through many obstacles.

The sword on Shen Shen's chin still did not shift in the slightest. Zhou Fu smiled sinisterly looking at Shen Shen who was sweating in fear. An awkward smile that had never even appeared on Zhou Fu's face. Seeing that horrible smile on Zhou Fu's face, Shen Shen felt that something was wrong back then.

He ventured to fend off Zhou Fu's sword as hard as he could. Shen Shen threw Zhou Fu's sword with his right palm until it slipped out of Zhou Fu's grasp.

“Remove that sword from your grasp!” Shen Shen shouted hysterically.

As a result of Shen Shen Shen's sudden movements, Shen Shen's palm poured out fresh blood. He paused loudly while shaking his injured hand. He hoped that the strangeness that happened to Zhou Fu would soon disappear along with the release of Rao Guohoa's sword from Zhou Fu's hand.

Zhou Fu looked at his new sword lying on the crumbling block of the ship he was riding on, then his eyes moved to look at Shen Shen's bloody palm. The first thing Zhou Fu did then was to massage his forehead which felt dizzy.

“I think something is wrong with this sword, is your hand okay?” Zhou Fu was still twitching his forehead because the dizziness in his head had not disappeared.

“No. Of course I'm not okay. You saw my hands bleed. I've never scratched a sword before, and it's not fun,” grumbled Shen Shen Shen who has returned to being a spoiled and complaining girl.

“Wire! Let's not say this is the kind of black heirloom that grandfather once told me!” Zhou Fu looked down on the physical details of Rao Guohoa's sword.

Li Xian's grandfather once told Zhou Fu to be careful of some kind of black heirloom. An heirloom object is said to be a black heirloom if the heirloom is able to give a negative aura boost to its user. Negative aura thrusts are the kind of power favored by black-flowered warriors. There is a detail of information Zhou Fu remembers most about a type of black heirloom, a rejection given by the heirloom because it was held by an unauthorized owner.

Certain heirlooms such as having a spirit in the form of energy, the energy is able to recognize who the owner is and only obey the rightful owner. A person is said to be a legal owner if he meets two conditions, the first condition is that the previous owner voluntarily gives the heirloom to the new owner. The second condition is that the previous owner has lost and died at the hands of the new owner.

“Badness!” Zhou Fu shouted furiously while kicking the heirloom sword of Rao Guohoa into the high seas. His head shook in disbelief, “that woman is still alive!” zhou Fu said with eyes still in disbelief.

Shen Shen looked up in shock. Not only startled, the hair expands instantly, “what do you mean he's still alive?” Shen Shen asked in fear.

“When I grasped his sword, I felt an energy radiating from it. The energy was deliberately sent to signal its rightful owner. My grandfather said, such energy will only appear if the rightful owner of the heirloom is still alive,” Zhou Fu explained the knowledge he got from Li Xian's grandfather to Shen Shen.

“If he is still alive, means his strength will be doubled greater than last night?” Shen Shen crossed his two hands onto his shoulders in horror.

“Yes. I don't think we can linger around here anymore. I also worry lest something bad happen with those three uncles who helped us, there is no other choice!”

Zhou Fu gestured for Shen Shen to get ready. They will run a backup plan because their initial plan does not work.

Sorry up little and late, my show rundown for tomorrow turned out to be quite solid. Oh yes yesterday who asked me tomorrow in sidoarjo where, the location of my event is at Hotel Sinar 1 Juanda…

Sorry if the chapter is bad…

For those who may be upset because the evil character is not dead, please do not rush to assume the MC can not beat him yes. That was because Rao Guohoa's aunt was indeed one of the influential antagonists in the entire series of stories. So you can't rush to die...
