Zhang Fuzhi raised his head and puffed out his chest.
He sat even straighter than elementary school students in class.
His expression was calm, as if what he had said earlier was not what he had said.

As long as I’m not embarrassed, it’s the others who will feel embarrassed.

All the officials looked up calmly after glaring at Zhang Fuzhi.

The situation was a little strange.
Everyone tried their best to look calm.

It was as if they weren’t the ones who’d been having a heated discussion.

The most important thing in the Imperial Court was their face…

“We and our ministers will decide the victor of the parade, not you.
Whether you can win or not is still unknown.
It’s too early to say that you don’t want the reward.” Emperor Yuan Feng secretly wiped away his cold sweat.
I’m still smart and let this Zhou brat introduce his weapons himself.

Had I listened to the comments of these ministers, I would have lost all my face.
He put on a very dignified look and calmly waved his hand.
“Continue.”

“Alright.” Zhou Shu shrugged.

“My Three Swords of Yin Tianzi are Light Bearing, Shadow, and Night Practice.

“This is Night Practice.”

Zhou Shu took out something from the wooden box.

“Marquis Zhou, could it be that my eyes are blurred from old age? You don’t seem to have a sword in your hand? Or can I not see it?”

The person who spoke was Great General Meng.
He was half crippled and didn’t care about his reputation.

“You’re right that you can’t see it.” Zhou Shu smiled.
“Everyone, please take a look.”

He raised his hand and pointed at the ground with his other hand.

Everyone’s gaze followed his finger and saw a faint shadow on the ground in front of Zhou Shu.
It was the shape of a sword.

Shock was written all over everyone’s faces.
This was the first time they had witnessed such a miraculous scene.

A weapon could do this?

Shi Songtao’s mouth was also wide open.
He had never heard of any weapon that could leave a shadow even though it couldn’t be seen with the eyes!

“The Night Practice Sword, during the day, one will see the shadow but not the light.
At night, one will see the light but not its shape,” Zhou Shu said loudly.
“It’s daytime right now, so I can’t show everyone the situation at night.
I can tell everyone that if it’s nighttime, the Night Practice will look like a ball of moonlight.” “What a wonderful idea,” Meng Bai said emotionally.

Zhang Fuzhi and the other officials were so shocked that they couldn’t speak.

The first sword of the Three Swords of Yin Tianzi was already so amazing.
What about the other two swords?

Emperor Yuan Feng gripped the armrest of his throne tightly.

Such a magical sword is part of the Three Swords of Yin Tianzi, and it’s named after me!

Hmm, barely worthy of me.

If he offers the Three Swords of Yin Tianzi to me later, I will pretend to decline first, then reluctantly accept them.

Even though it’s only a yellow-grade weapon, it’s still a token of goodwill from him.
If I reject it, he will be bitterly disappointed.

However, I’m not the kind of person who likes to take advantage of others.
I won’t let my subjects suffer a loss if I accept something from them.

Emperor Yuan Feng began to seriously consider what he should reward him.

I’ve just conferred him the title of marquis, so I can’t promote him further.
How about I reward him with some gold? It seems a little tacky.

While Emperor Yuan Feng was struggling, Zhou Shu had already put down the Night Practice Sword and taken out the next sword.

In everyone’s eyes, Zhou Shu had nothing in his hands.

They couldn’t see if Zhou Shu had a sword in his hand at all.
It was just Zhou Shu’s words!

“This second sword is called the Shadow Sword! At dawn when the sky is neither dark nor bright, a faint shadow of the sword appears in the north.
The shadow of the sword only lasts for a moment, no one knows what it looks like.”

As Zhou Shu spoke, he raised his hand.

At this moment, the sky was already close to dusk.
The people standing on Zhou Shu’s side raised their heads and looked north, just in time to see a faintly discernible sword shadow.

They couldn’t help crying out in alarm.

The people from other directions didn’t see anything and felt puzzled.

“We can only see it from the north?” A minister had already left his seat and ran to Zhou Shun’s side to look north.

His expression changed slightly.

He really saw a sword!

Emperor Yuan Feng was eager to give it a try, but he was the emperor.
How could he be like these people who had never seen the world?

What have I not seen before?

Isn’t it just a sword?

When Zhou Shu presents it to me, I will have time to play with it carefully.

“Everyone, let’s continue.”

Zhou Shu placed the Shadow Sword back, then moved to another sword.

This time, no one doubted whether Zhou Shu had a sword in his hand.

He really had a sword in his hand!

“This third one is called Light Bearing.
It cannot be seen by sight, and one cannot tell if it is used.”

“Marquis Zhou, if you can’t see it, and you don’t even feel that you have a sword in your hand when you use it, how do you know if it exists?” Zhang Fuzhi asked Zhou Shu what he meant and then frowned.

“As the saying goes, the usage depends on one’s heart.” Zhou Shu smiled.

“One cannot tell if it is used just means that the blade is extremely sharp.
Before one can feel it, the blade has already sliced through the item.
It doesn’t mean that the user can’t sense the sword’s existence.

“The sharpness of the sword can’t be proved by just your words,” a discordant voice suddenly said.
“We can’t even see your Three Swords of Yin Tianzi.
How can you prove how powerful they are?”

“That makes sense.” Zhou Shu nodded and looked up at the stage.
“Grand Minister, may I trouble you?” Zhou Shu said.

Yin Wuyou was startled, but she still nodded.
“Say it.”

“Grand Minister, come here.”

Yin Wuyou didn’t hesitate and walked toward Zhou Shu.

“What do you want me to do?” Yin Wuyou asked doubtfully.

“Please test the sword, Grand Minister.” Zhou Shu smiled and extended his hand.

Yin Wuyou was slightly puzzled.
She looked at Zhou Shu’s hand.
Even though they were so close, she couldn’t see the sword in Zhou Shu’s hand.

She tentatively reached out her hand and pressed it against Zhou Shu’s.

From afar, it looked like they were holding hands.

Emperor Yuan Feng’s eyelids twitched.
Alright, Zhou Shu, your reward is gone!

I don’t care for the Three Swords of Yin Tianzi anymore!

When Shi Songtao saw this scene, his face instantly turned incomparably pale.

In this world, although there was no such thing as The Great Defense for Men and Women, it was improper for men and women to touch each other.
Her Highness held his hand in public…

Shi Songtao seemed to hear the sound of his heart breaking

Yin Wuyou’s little face blushed.
She didn’t know why she reached out her hand.

When her hand touched Zhou Shu’s palm, she felt her entire body heat up.

But the next moment, the cold touch on her palm brought her back to her senses.

She raised her head in shock, her bright eyes staring straight at Zhou Shu.

Zhou Shu nodded slightly, an encouraging expression appearing on his face.

Yin Wuyou nodded vigorously, then her arm trembled.

Swoosh!

With a light sound, countless dazzling sword lights appeared in the sky.

Yin Wuyou was like a banished immortal, her figure becoming somewhat ethereal within the sword light.

Crack!

With a light sound, Yin Wuyou’s arm dropped down.
Not far away, several forging furnaces slid down at a visible speed.

Everyone’s gaze froze.

Yin Wuyou didn’t release an overly intense aura just now, but this sword strike actually directly cut apart several forging furnaces.

One had to know that these forging furnaces were made of copper and iron, so their hardness was not inferior to ordinary standard weapons.

“Good sword!” Yin Wuyou praised.
“The power of this sword isn’t inferior to the Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword you forged before.”

With the princess’s verification, no one dared to doubt the power of the sword.

“Marquis, are your Three Swords of Yin Tianzi still yellow-grade weapons?” Zhang Fuzhi asked.

“Yes.” Zhou Shu nodded.
But they might become black or even earth or heaven-grade in the future.

“This Light Bearing Sword has such power.
What about the other two swords? How big is the difference between them and this Light Bearing Sword?” Zhang Fuzhi asked the question on everyone’s mind.

The Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword ranked eleventh in the Yellow-grade Armament Manual.

The power of this Light Bearing Sword was not inferior to the Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword, which meant that it could already rank in the top ten of the Yellow-grade Armament Manual.

If the other two swords had similar power… Then that would be three swords ranked in the top ten of the Yellow-grade Armament Manual.
If they were ranked according to the name “Three Swords of Yin Tianzi’, would they rank in the top five? Or even the top three?

“Some differences, but not much,” Zhou Shu said.
“Actually, Your Highness flattered me too much.
The Light Bearing Sword and the Seven Star Dragon Abyss both have their own strengths, but I can’t say that it is definitely stronger than the Seven Star Dragon Abyss.
Its strength depends on the bearer of the sword.
“The Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword that I forged is not bad either,” Zhou Shu said arrogantly.

The swords that he, Zhou Shu, produced were not ordinary! Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.
They didn’t hear what Zhou Shu said next.
They only heard Zhou Shu say that the other two swords were not much weaker than the Light Bearing Sword.

Would they really see three swords enter the top ten of the Yellow-grade Armament Manual at the same time?

Some people were already looking at the Forging Masters who owned Heavenly Mirrors.

All the Forging Masters were a bit embarrassed.
Why did it feel like the military parade had become an evaluation especially for the You Marquis?

But then again, the weapons he forged were not only powerful but also full of gimmicks.

An invisible sword was so eye-catching.

In comparison, there was nothing impressive about the weapons they forged…

“Lords, the Yellow-grade Armament Manual is only updated once a day,” a Forging Master said softly.

The Three Swords of Yin Tianzi had just been forged, so it was impossible for it to be ranked immediately.
It would take at least one day…

Everyone felt a little regretful.
They really wanted to see what rank the Three Swords of Yin Tianzi would rank in the Yellow-grade Armament Manual.

“The Three Swords of Yin Tianzi are indeed marvelous ideas.
Good swords.” Emperor Yuan Feng nodded slightly.
He looked at Zhou Shu, his eyes indicating that he understood.

Hurry up and offer it to me.
I am ready.

“Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty.” Zhou Shu cupped his hands and then turned to Yin Wuyou.

“Grand Minister, I previously agreed to help you forge a weapon.
Logically speaking, with your status and cultivation level, you should at least be equipped with an earth-grade weapon.
Unfortunately, I don’t have that ability yet.

“The grade is not high enough, so I used numbers to make up for it.”

Zhou Shu smiled.
“I’ll give the Three Swords of Yin Tianzi to you, Grand Minister.

“The weapons displayed in the parade belong to the Forging Master.
Did I remember wrongly?”

“No!” Yin Wuyou felt as if she had eaten honey.
She nodded vigorously.
“These swords belong to you.
You have the right to do what you want!

“Since you’ve said so, then I will not refuse.

“I will reluctantly accept the Three Swords of Yin Tianzi.

“Although they are a little weak, they are interesting…”

If you think they’re weak, then give them to us!

We don’t mind!

Many people screamed in their hearts.

Emperor Yuan Feng’s eyes grew wider as he listened to Zhou Shu and Yin Wuyou sing the same tune.

My Three Swords of Yin Tianzi!

This damn brat actually didn’t give the swords to me?

Emperor Yuan Feng’s eyes were about to spit fire.

How dare you use my Three Swords of Yin Tianzi to trick my daughter.
Do you really think I don’t have a temper? Just because a tiger doesn’t show its might, do you think I’m a sick cat?

QUIS

“This is a military parade, not a place for you to fool around.
Stand down!” Emperor Yuan Feng said coldly.

“The Three Swords of Yin Tianzi are not one.
In the history of my Grand Xia, there is no rule that allows three swords to participate in the military parade at the same time.
In this military parade, the You Marquis’s weapons will not be evaluated!”

Emperor Yuan Feng flung his sleeves.

“Father-” Yin Wuyou exclaimed.

“I have made up my mind.
No one is allowed to say anything!” Emperor Yuan Feng’s face was as cold as ice.

Yin Wuyou still wanted to say something, but the ministers were already desperately winking at her.

Zhou Shu tugged at her sleeve.

So be it.
He had no intention of getting anything in the military parade anyway.

He had only come because he wanted to give the emperor some face.
After all, the emperor had already issued the decree.
If he didn’t come, it would be too disrespectful.

As for the rest, Zhou Shu didn’t care at all.

Yin Wuyou glanced at Zhou Shu.
When she saw his nonchalant expression, her heart ached.

In order for me not to have a conflict with my father, he would rather suffer.

Yin Wuyou, oh Yin Wuyou.
As the princess of Great Xia, not only did you fail to provide him with any help, but you even made him feel wronged.

If you can’t even seek justice for him, what can you do as a princess! What face do you have to accept the Three Swords of Yin Tianzi!

Thump!

Yin Wuyou placed the Light Bearing Sword back into the wooden box and closed it.

She grabbed the wooden box with one hand and pulled Zhou Shu’s arm with the other as she walked out of the arena.

Before she left, she turned around and glared at Emperor Yuan Feng.
This matter today is not over!

Emperor Yuan Feng was about to explode in anger.
How dare you glare at me? You damn girl, you stole my Three Swords of Yin Tianzi, and you dare to glare at me? Rebellion, this is really rebellion!

No, everyone with the surname Zhou is a bastard.
How dare he use the Three Swords of Yin Tianzi to drive a wedge between me and my daughter.
My daughter used to be so obedient, but ever since this brat with the surname Zhou appeared, everything has changed!

No, if this goes on, my little daughter will really be gone.
I can’t let this brat hang around Wuyou anymore.
I have to kick him out for a period of time.

That’s it!

A thought flashed through Emperor Yuan Feng’s mind, and his lips involuntarily curled up.

Eunuch Zhao and the others felt their hair stand on end.
Is His Majesty plotting something?
