The Scepter Of Light, Some Hidden Secrets, And A Sparkling Debut


After hearing Chu Kuangren’s poem, Li Ye’s impression of him greatly improved. In addition to his reputation as an esteemed senior of the Black Heaven Sect, he was immediately treated as a VIP with Li Xingchen attending to him.

Xingchen assigned the most luxurious suite in White Cloud Hotel to Kuangren. It was so high class that even Kuangren himself wondered if it were some emperor’s grand palace.

“Shall I arrange a banquet for you tonight, Senior Chu? I shall invite and introduce the young talents of the city to you as well.”

Xingchen was most excited.

“Sure.” Kuangren faintly nodded.

Inside the posh suite, Kuangren was organizing the bounty from his treasure hunt.

As he looked at the dazzling array of treasures inside the Yin and Yang Ring, he unwittingly frowned. “This is just way too messy…”

Potions, weapons, classical books, etc. All the treasure was just randomly stuffed in here, and for someone with mild OCD like Kuangren, it was rather unbearable. Thus, he tidied it up.

Since Honorable Yuan Ling just had way too many treasures, it took him almost half an hour to finish.

“The Fantasy Roulette’s space is still more convenient after all.”

Then, Kuangren had a thought. That space was an inventory space. As long as he did not take anything out, the same items would be arranged together in order.

Despite being tired, looking at his neatly organized treasures made him grin unwittingly.

“That treasure hunt was so worth it!”

Beside him, Lan Yu could not help but faintly smile when she saw how happy Kuangren was.

“Right, Lan Yu. This is for you.”

He took out a white scepter.

That scepter was the very same one that Lan Yu had her eyes on in the vault.

It was pure white, donned with a bedazzling sun-like halo that was engraved with runes. A shining light emanated from it.

This was the weapon of a saint.

Lan Yu’s eyes sparkled with mirth but she remained where she was, hesitant to take it.

Kuangren saw her hesitation and shoved the scepter straight into her hands. “Take it. I’m not short of sacred weapons and the scepter would do you more good than me.”

To the average cultivator, a sacred weapon was the most powerful item ever, even a saintly cultivator would not have more than a few.

However, to Kuangren it was just a weapon after all.

He only took the Descendant Self Sword from Sword Mountain and nothing else, if not he could have had a sword in each hand while the rest could be thrown around for fun.

Still, he kept those thoughts to himself.

If the Protectors in hiding heard him they would burn him in rage for saying such blasphemous words against the sacred swords.

“Thank you, Master.” Lan Yu did not protest further and inspected the scepter.

The scepter vibrated slightly as if it were letting out a cry of joy before turning into a light orb and fusing with Lan Yu.

It had chosen its master.

“Looks like the sacred weapon likes you!” Chu Kuangren grinned.

She suddenly felt a wave of information rush into her head. “This staff is known as the Scepter of Light. It belonged to a Sage Ruler and hero named the Holy King 50 thousand years ago.”
