The Otherworldly Adventures of a Super Naive Girl

Chapter 41: A God Level Sword Art

The children were still rushing to where the object should have fallen. Although they didnt know what it was exactly, they knew it had to be something important. To miss such an opportunity was vexing enough, had they known it was an actual artifact they would have surely coughed blood.

Feng Wu had already made her way off the mountain by the time the other children arrived. She and Xiao Chen easily took down the bugs together. Unexpectedly a treasure box lay inside one of the bugs. The bug had mistaken the box for food and swallowed it but was unable to digest it because of the special quality of the wood. As a result, the box lay in its belly undigested until Feng Wu came along.

It was no wonder none of the previous librarians could find it. By the time they reached the location, the treasure was already swallowed by the worm. That explained why the treasure couldnt be found.

It didnt explain why no one could locate Xiao Chun though.

Xiao Chun was an unusually pure sword. It had accepted Feng Wu, because of her simple mind, as its wielder. The two were connected and bound together by a soul contract. Because of this Xiao Chun was able to hide inside Feng Wus body in her spiritual sea, thus avoiding detection by everyone.

Xiao Chun wasnt its real name, but a nickname Feng Wu gave it. Its original name was the Pure Sword. The sword and her master coexisted as neighbors since before Feng Wu was even born. Her master told her the sword embedded in stone behind the waterfall was an exceptional magical sword. Indeed, there was not a single sliver of rust or imperfection on it despite all the years it lay exposed to the elements. No one was able to pull it out in all the time it was there, but if she could pull it out it would be hers.

When she was ten her master brought her over and asked her to try. She easily pulled it out. At the time her master looked at her with a mixture of relief and concern in his eyes.

Since that day Xiao Chun never left her side. They slept together, played together, practiced together - they were inseparable. In time she learned to understand Xiao Chun. Although it couldnt talk to her, she could sense its thoughts.

She had happily told her master about this discovery.

That sword in your hand is the purest sword in the world. The person who forged it used the purest of intentions to create it. Only those with the same pure heart is qualified to wield it. Since the ancient days it has lain in the minds of many in the world. The more intelligent ones desired it strongly. However, despite all their resources, none have been able to obtain it. Then one day it disappeared. With the passage of time people it slipped from people's memory.

When the Pure Sword disappeared, it had flown to her masters mountaintop. That was how the two became neighbors.

The Pure Sword was a sentient sword with the will to choose its own master. In the millennium it existed it had accepted only two masters, its maker and Feng Wu. Feng Wu was an incredibly pure and simple person with an uncomplicated mind, the perfect person to wield a sword as pure as it was.

Feng Wu thought she would never see Xiao Chun again. To think Xiao Chun cut through time and space to find her. Did that mean her master would be coming soon as well? The expectation took root in her heart and made her incredibly happy. She really missed Master!

Feng Wu made her way back to the library with the treasure box and showed it to the Librarian. That the treasure was finally found made the librarian incredibly happy, overwhelming him with emotion. It didnt matter who found it. Its existence validated all the effort made by the previous generations of librarians. That Feng Wu would wait to open it in front of him only served to raise his opinion of her a little more. He was grinning hugely as she lifted the lid, but the sight that greeted him caused his face to drop.

The librarian gingerly picked up the worn-out book from the box. Girl you are blessed. This is a god level sword art. Never did he expect Feng Wus luck would be so great, to find a god level art.. . it was amazing.

Feng Wus eyes glittered brightly, satisfied she had found exactly what she needed to enter Xingguang Academy. She really wanted to get into the school, so the book discovery made her really happy. A huge grin broke out on her face.

Girl, youd better go find another skill book. One that is more ordinary. Even in the outside world, god level sword arts are rare. If you use it, Im afraid you will have hard days ahead. The old librarian thought Feng Wu was a good child and he wanted to look out for her. He didnt want to see her troubled because of an item.

Why? Feng Wu blinked, not understanding.

You- this child. Think about it. Once you go outside, youll definitely be asked to hand over a sword skill for entry into the academy. Even if the people in the academy treat you well, those outside wont. Once word gets out that you have a god level sword art people will be after you for it. These kinds of people will do anything for power, absolutely despicable things, even threaten your loved ones.

When the old librarian said that the light in his eyes darkened. Zi Cheng or Ai Lin would have been suspicious had they been there, however it was only Feng Wu, and she didnt notice anything amiss. As an NPC character he should not have had any knowledge of the outside world.

The old librarians words made Feng Wu think. The thought of the bad guys kidnapping either her baby or Tian Ke for the sword art made her furrow her brow. She decided to listen to the old mans advice and not hand over the sword art for her admission.

Feng Wu spoke firmly. I will listen to your words.

Her conviction satisfied the old librarian. He touched his beard thinking that Feng Wu was a really sincere child.

Girl, if you wish to enter the school, youll have to find a weapon or a skill book that suits your attributes. Im afraid most of the sword arts have already been found. Weapons.. . finding one will be your best bet. Go out and roam around the streets OK? Itll be to your advantage to go out and help those who need help.
