252 Stupid Thing (2)

At this time, Jiang Ming’s biggest headache was not the cultivators of the major forces, but the stupid sword that was chasing him.

He really did not expect that it would be this persistent!

“shit! Fellow cultivator, wait for me. I’ll be your slave in the future! I’ve been alone since I was a child. Please take pity on me.”

Behind him, the black sword was chasing after Jiang Ming.

!!
Jiang Ming turned a deaf ear to its words. He swept across the ruins and rushed through the foggy passage that he came from.

Perhaps the black sword had encountered some trouble while Jiang Ming was away. Now, its aura was a little sluggish, and it was very slow. For a while, it could not catch up with Jiang Ming, who was using his escape technique.

“This thing’s foundation is terrifying. How did it end up like this?”

Jiang Ming glanced at the black sword behind him and naturally thought of the old man he met on the starlit path.

If the old man used to wield him, it was obvious how terrifying the black sword was. The old man also spoke of its strength.

However, now, it had become a stupid pest that was chasing after him and shouting that it wanted to be his slave, and he could not get rid of it.

“If it’s really the same sword, then it must have met with an unimaginable calamity to become the lunatic it is today!” Jiang Ming muttered. If he accepted the black sword, what if it went crazy and stabbed him one day?

With this in mind, Jiang Ming’s speed increased again, and he rushed into the foggy passage.

“Ah! Fellow cultivator, you’re so powerful! Your speed is unparalleled.”

The black sword also rushed into the passage. Its body trembled slightly as it absorbed the fog in the passage to replenish its strength. It became faster and faster as it excitedly rushed forward.

“Damn, you’re really a pest.” Jiang Ming felt the sword behind him getting closer and closer, and he could not help but be shocked. He finally knew why the black sword had entered the passage before. The fog could actually replenish its strength.

Jiang Ming thought of the black stone slab on his body, which could also absorb the fog here. It seemed that they really came from the same source.

However, he did not know if the origin of the black stone slab was as ancient and terrifying as the black sword.

Jiang Ming’s speed was still affected in this foggy passage. In just a moment, the black sword, which had recovered its strength, caught up with him. It flew close to Jiang Ming and kept flattering him, “My fellow cultivator, let me be your weapon. I’m very powerful. I’m hard and fast. I’ll definitely stab whatever you point me to without a second thought! Fellow cultivator, you’re too heartless. Fellow cultivator, you…”

Jiang Ming was rendered speechless. “You used to be a peerless blade in the hands of a powerhouse. How did you become like this?’

Jiang Ming’s head hurt from its whining. He quickly said, “Stop, stop, stop! What do you see in me? I’m useless, okay?”

“Fellow cultivator, you’re slandering me!” The black sword’s voice instantly rose. “I’ve seen your invincible posture and unparalleled temperament. That’s why I’m willing to risk my life to become a helping hand on your path to immortal ascension!”

“The path to immortal ascension? You’ve seen someone who has become an immortal?” Jiang Ming suddenly squinted.

“No, I haven’t.” The black sword was at a loss and could not help but mutter to itself, “Yeah, I’ve never seen it before. Fellow cultivator, you’re so smart.”

The black sword recovered from its daze and immediately saw that Jiang Ming had quietly gone far away. It immediately increased its speed and chased after him.

“Fellow cultivator, you almost forgot about me.”

Jiang Ming had completely lost his temper. If this thing was really determined to follow him, he probably would not be able to get rid of it.

“This thing has long been known by those powerful sects. It will definitely cause trouble if it follows me through the city. It’s better to compromise first. I’ll find an opportunity to throw it away in the future.”

Jiang Ming’s mind turned quickly. As he flew forward, he sighed, “Alright, I didn’t expect you to be so persistent. I’m touched. A heart as sincere as yours is rare!”

“Fellow cultivator, y-you.” The black sword trembled slightly, and blood-red ripples seeped out from the tip of the sword, as if it was moved to tears.

“Is my chance finally here? There’s something familiar about him, and there’s also the aura of a fragment of the great cultivation on him. I must hold on to him,” the black sword was thinking to itself.

Jiang Ming stared at the black sword, and his brain was also working rapidly. “It’s an old antique with a mysterious origin. It would be unreasonable to gain nothing useful from it.”

“You said you’re very powerful. Show me what you’ve got first. Otherwise, what’s the point of me taking you in?” Jiang Ming said boldly.

The black sword was stunned.

“Alright! I have to gain his trust!” the black sword thought to himself and immediately said to Jiang Ming, “Fellow cultivator, have you noticed that my speed increased greatly as soon as I entered this passage?”
