"What?" Lian Cheng Xue blinked in surprise and turned to look at the always serious Xiang Xueer. She figured that her mood was probably the worst, so she didn't dare say more.
Xiang Xueer took a deep breath, crossed her arms, and began to analyze, "Qingtian, don't you find it strange?"
Lan Ran Qingtian frowned, staring at the AK47 on her back, then nodded, "It is strange. But suddenly running out of bullets—what could be the reason?"
Xiang Xueer glanced at the gun on her back and quickly shook her head, "I'm not talking about that. What I mean is, do you remember what that traitor Duck said? On Duckbill Mountain, besides Bakemono, there seem to be two others called Thousand Demons and Ten Thousand Ghosts. Yet we’ve been causing such a ruckus on their territory without stirring up these two monsters? Isn't that strange?"
Hearing her say this, both of them felt it was indeed odd. Lian Cheng Xue couldn't help but exclaim, "Could it be that these two monsters aren't on Duckbill Mountain?"
Xiang Xueer looked at him, and his offhand remark suddenly startled her: "Oh no! If they aren't at Duckbill Mountain, what do you think these two Demons are doing?"
The Bakemono had a scheme to use the souls of one hundred Exorcists to summon a great demon. Qingtian's eyelid twitched: "Yes, they must have gone out to capture Exorcists because they still need three more people to reach one hundred!"
"Adding Brother Li into the mix means only two are left?" Lian Cheng Xue exclaimed. "This is bad! If they gather enough people, Brother Li's life will be in danger!"
"Not just that!" Lan Ran Qingtian felt a wave of bad premonition. "Actually, what I'm most worried about is that the demon they want to summon is definitely not an ordinary one. Once it's summoned, the world will surely be thrown into chaos again, and the common people will suffer."
Xiang Xueer had thought of everything and even prepared for the best and worst outcomes. She clenched her fists tightly and slammed one down on the table: "Time is of the essence! We must rescue Li Yunyang and stop the sacrifice at Duckbill Mountain!"
After hearing this, Lian Cheng Xue shakily got up from the bed: "This time I want to go too, so please don’t try to stop me!"
Xiang Xueer looked at Lian Cheng Xue's injured arm. It had only been five days; his wound was still far from healed. However, the situation was indeed urgent. She nodded: "Although I'm very worried about your injury, lives are at stake and it concerns the common people. So this time we definitely need your help."
Lian Cheng Xue excitedly clenched his left fist: "Alright! Miss Xueer, whatever you need me to do—my life is yours to save. Just give your orders; I’ll go through fire and water without hesitation!"
Xiang Xueer looked at Lian Cheng Xue with a heavy expression: "There are indeed two things I need your help with, and only you can accomplish them!"
"Ah? What is it?" Lian Cheng Xue and Qingtian quickly asked upon seeing her expression.
"You mentioned that your Chiba Clan is a traditional family that crafts Exorcist weapons, right?" Xiang Xueer slowly sat down beside them: "The first thing is: how to rescue Li Yunyang from the prison made of Thousand-Year Mysterious Iron. His ‘Azure Dragon Slash’ seems unable to open the cage; the second is that my AK-47 is out of bullets. It was crafted for me by Fire King, and I only had thirty bullets, which are now used up. So if you can make some, it would be a great help for the upcoming battle."
"I see!" Lian Cheng Xue nodded. "Leave this problem to me. Even though I only have one arm left, I will find a way to save the Exorcist of Exorcism Village and avenge our entire village, even if it means shedding my last drop of blood!"
"Well, thank you for your hard work. But you better not overexert yourself. Even if we can't solve these two problems, we still need you for the upcoming battle!" After finishing her words, Xiang Xueer reached out and pulled Lan Ran Qingtian: "I have something else to discuss with you. Come outside with me!"
"Oh!" Qingtian followed Xiang Xueer into the courtyard, deep in thought with her brows furrowed: "Qingtian, what do you think about those demons called Thousand Demons and Ten Thousand Ghosts? Where do they go to capture Exorcists?"
Upon hearing this, Qingtian quickly reacted: "Shirley, do you mean to intercept those two demons to buy time for summoning?"
"Yes!" Xiang Xueer nodded: "Exactly. Once all one hundred Exorcists are gathered, the situation may develop beyond our control. What should we do then?"
"I'm also very worried about Brother Li, so you must stay calm at this moment!" Qingtian patted her shoulder to encourage her: "Leave the matter of the Thousand Demons and Ten Thousand Ghosts to me. Don't worry; I will definitely block their path!"
"Really?" The light in Xiang Xueer's eyes shone, but she became slightly worried again: "Can you really handle both of those demons by yourself? That Bakemono is already quite troublesome; having two would surely be a hassle. With Li Yunyang captured, I don't want anything to happen to you!"
Xiang Xueer couldn't believe how much she cared about others' safety and was even worried about the affairs of the common people. Oh my god, could it be that her personality has twisted after being reborn?
"Don't worry; I won't get into trouble!" A confident smile appeared on Lan Ran Qingtian's face: "Don't forget that I'm a Saint Ten, and I have helpers too!"
Xiang Xueer suddenly realized, almost forgetting that he still had two Lion-Hybrid summoned beasts. She felt a bit more at ease: "Yes, don't forget, if you can fight, then fight; if you can't, then run!"
"Ah?" Qingtian widened his eyes at him, revealing a bright smile, then waved his hand: "Then I'm off, wait for my news!"
With a gust of Azure Wind, Lan Ran Qingtian instantly disappeared from sight. Xiang Xueer stood in place, her mind began to plan again. This time she must be cautious and careful; lives were at stake, and she could not afford any mistakes like last time.
After returning indoors, Lian Cheng Xue was already up. The pain from her severed arm was indeed still very intense. Seeing the beads of sweat on his forehead, she quickly helped her sit down: "Don't move around yet; just tell me what needs to be done."
Lian Cheng Xue nodded and pointed to a painting on the wall: "You need to lift the scroll; inside is the Weapon Codex left by my father."
Xiang Xueer lifted the scroll and saw that there was indeed a small Secret Door on the wall. She reached out and touched it, feeling an ancient book inside, which she brought in front of Lian Cheng Xue.
As he flipped through the book, he said: "Although I have never seen it, my father once told me... our Chiba Clan has been crafting exorcism weapons for over a hundred years. This book should contain how to open the Thousand-Year Mysterious Iron."
"Oh, I see!" Xiang Xueer quickly leaned closer. Both of them stared without blinking at the numerous records of various weapons on the pages—axes, halberds, hooks, forks, swords, spears, and shields. Indeed, after flipping a few pages, they found a long sword made of Thousand-Year Mysterious Iron with a few lines written below.
"Thousand-Year Mysterious Iron is forged by mixing Meteorite with pig iron; it is incredibly tough and indestructible," Xiang Xueer read slowly. "No way, could it really be impossible to forge?"
Lian Cheng Xue squinted at the small print at the bottom: "Forging process: Thousand-Year Mysterious Iron cannot be recreated; it must be split using an object of equal quality!"
"What does this mean?" Xiang Xueer turned to look at Lian Cheng Xue. He smiled at her: "It means that to split Thousand-Year Mysterious Iron, you must use a weapon forged from Thousand-Year Mysterious Iron!"
