"And what has your Winter Jade Empire found out in so many years?"Not hesitating to share information with Jian Shen, Lei Xifeng showed her trust in him by revealing everything she knew.
"From all of our investigations, we"ve learned that there is at least one of the Nine Heavenly Creations, and two pieces of the Myriad G.o.d Sword in the Divine Realm."
Appreciating this gesture of Xifeng, Jian Shen asked, "What do you want in exchange for the location of all the three items?"
"Honestly, even if I tell you about where these treasures are at, it would be impossible for you to try and obtain them."
Jian Shen had already expected this because the Winter Jade Empire should"ve tried to obtain them at one point or the other. And only because they failed to do it was Xifeng willing to share the information about them.
"That"s fine, I"ll take care of how to obtain them."
"Aa you wish."
Pulling out a scroll from her spatial ring, Xifeng handed it to Jian Shen who quickly opened it to read its content.
Inside the scroll were three images. Two of them were swords, while another one was a guqin.
The location of all three of the objects was vaguely defined with the guqin being in a very dangerous forest, while one of the two swords was out in the open and being used by a strong force to train their members.
The second sword on the other hand turned out to be 1uirw close to Jian Shen, it was in the possession of the Winter Jade Empire.
Lifting his head immediately to look towards the smiling Xifeng, Jian Shen felt as if he had fallen in a well laid out trap.
"Sigh.... What do you want?"
"Giving you the information was in exchange for you supporting us for the next thousand years, but to give you the sword you will need to do something else."
"Just say it."
"I want you to stay inside the palace and train my daughter in the art of sword-wielding."
"That"s it?"
"Yes."
Seriously? A piece of the Myriad G.o.d Sword in exchange for such a simple task?
Sure he could be considered as someone very good on the Path of Sword. Especially after his comprehension on Sword Qi had gone through the roof due to what he did inside the Sword World.
But, Jian Shen was sure that there were many Sword Cultivators that were more proficient than him in the Divine Realm.
After all, he hadn"t yet achieved Sword Soul state which would allow him to wield the sword as if it was a part of his body and not an extension.
And given how strong the Winter Jade Empire seemed to be, Xifeng definitely shouldn"t have any trouble in finding someone better than the current him to help Lei Luli train.
So why would she part this a piece of the Myriad G.o.d Sword in exchange for such a thing?
There was definitely something fishy.
Was she trying to get him to marry her daughter? Nah.
Was the piece of Myriad G.o.d Sword so useless?
"What? Does the condition seem too hard?"
"You"ve got to understand why I"m feeling so sceptic, right?"
Chuckling a little, Xifeng asked, "Is there something wrong with a lady wis.h.i.+ng to have a handsome boy stay close to her?"
"But if you feel like the condition is too simple, how about a promise to do something for me when the time comes?"
Something is definitely fishy.
Still, Jian Shen didn"t really care much of what it might be that Xifeng was planning. Rather, all he wanted to do was obtain the piece of Myriad G.o.d Sword that was in the possession of Xifeng.

What would happen later would be left for the future.
"Fine."
Smiling happily the way a hunter did after he caught his prey, Xifeng directly removed a sword from her storage ring and handed it to Jian Shen making him feel even more that there was something wrong with the sword.
"That sword is the most useless one of the nine pieces."
"Huh?"
"The Jade Rabbit Sword which represents the element of diamond, it is the only sword of the nine which doesn"t have a technique."
"The only use of this sword is the bloodline which provides a great support through increasing your speed of healing by a huge margin."
"But, since you"ve already received the Heavenly Dragon Bloodline, this Jade Rabbit Sword won"t be of any use to you."
"Seriously?"
Showing the expression of how he was feeling on his face, Jian Shen made Xifeng laugh a little. This let him understand that Xifeng knew what the sword was and what it did.
"Why are you looking at me like that? I thought you"d be more happy to obtain this."
Stopping his lips from twitching, Jian Shen smiled and said, "I should"ve known that something was off about this deal. But why do I feel like you still are hiding something from me?"
"Whatever do you mean? I"m just an innocent lady who"s trying to help a handsome young boy."
"Since the second deal has been done as well, I expect you to start helping my daughter on the Path of Sword from tomorrow onwards."
"See you tomorrow, Jian Shen."
Looking towards the disappearing back of Xifeng with narrowed eyes, Jian Shen who trusted his instincts was sure that something would happen in the future which would make him feel like he should"ve asked for more than just this sword before agreeing with her.
