"I knew that old bastard left a trick up his sleeve with the Abi Sword!"
Lü Yang gripped the Abi Sword, but he could no longer sense any response from the Sword Spirit within. The hand holding the sword was even suffering a constant backlash from its Sword Qi.
Without a doubt, the Divine Effect of a Famous Artifact was the source of Blood Demon Zhenren's confidence in gifting away the Abi Sword he had worked so hard to refine. He had clearly planned to burn the bridge after crossing it. It just goes to show that Saint Sect Zhenren are all cut from the same cloth—not a single opportunity they offer can be trusted.
Fortunately, he was not entirely unprepared.
"The Deceit Heaven Technique hasn't expired yet. The Abi Sword is mine, and I am bearing the Celestial Punishment in your stead. Now that you want to take it back, you must compensate me for my lost Merit and Fortune!"
Lü Yang was no stranger to the *Deceit Heaven Technique*.
