Chapter 119: Gift from elders, dare not refuse
Upon hearing this, Shen Yun hurriedly took out the long sword he had been using from his storage ring. This was a first-grade top-grade long sword, with a faint cold light on the blade and exquisite gems inlaid on the hilt. The whole long sword looked extremely gorgeous.
"Grandpa, this is the weapon my grandson has been using." Shen Yun held the sword in both hands and handed it respectfully to Shen Qingfeng.
Shen Qingfeng glanced at the long sword casually, and the interest on his face suddenly faded a lot. This sword, the appearance is too gorgeous, and the forging material is not particularly good, so it is only a first-grade upper-grade. In his opinion, if it is used by a cultivator in the Qi Refining Realm, this sword is still acceptable and more than enough. But now Shen Yun is already a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Realm, and it is somewhat inappropriate to continue using a first-grade upper-grade weapon. Shen Qingfeng frowned slightly, thinking secretly in his heart how to help Shen Yun find a weapon that is more suitable for his current realm.
"You are now a cultivator at the second level of the Foundation Establishment Realm," Shen Qingfeng frowned slightly and said with a serious look, "At this level, it is indeed a bit unreasonable that you don't even have a second-level spiritual weapon."
Shen Jingyuan, who was standing aside, couldn't help rolling his eyes when he heard this, and secretly complained in his heart: "Old man, you don't know how expensive food and daily necessities are! You know, how many cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Realm are still using first-grade spiritual weapons. How easy is it to get a second-grade spiritual weapon? Even the children of large families cannot guarantee that everyone has a second-grade spiritual weapon." He shook his head helplessly and disagreed with what Shen Qingfeng said.
Shen Qingfeng focused on Shen Yun, not noticing Shen Jingyuan's inner thoughts. How could he know that Shen Jingyuan was secretly criticizing him at this moment? If he knew what Shen Jingyuan was thinking, with his upright character, he might really kill his relatives for the sake of justice today.
Shen Qingfeng calmly stretched out his right hand and lightly touched his storage ring, and a faint light flashed.
A long wooden box gradually appeared. The wooden box was dark in color, with fine and clear wood texture, as if telling the story of the years. The surface of the wooden box was carved with exquisite sword-shaped patterns, which were lifelike, with the tips of the swords pointing straight to the sky, exuding a sharp breath. The edges of the wooden box were inlaid with gold edges, which reflected the bright light under the light, adding a bit of luxury and mystery. The lid of the wooden box was also inlaid with a dazzling gem, which flashed a faint blue light, as if it contained endless power. The whole wooden box exuded an ancient and powerful atmosphere, which made people full of expectations for what was inside.
Shen Qingfeng gently stroked the wooden box, then threw it to Shen Yun, "Open it and see if you like it."
Hearing this, Shen Yun quickly stretched out his hands to receive it, "Grandpa, look at what you said, this is a gift from an elder, I dare not refuse it, there is no reason why I don't like it."
"Open it first and see before you draw any conclusions."
Shen Yun held the wooden box with one hand and gently opened the metal buckle on the box with the other hand.
With a "click", the box opened.
Shen Yun slowly opened the long wooden box, and saw a flash of cold light. Lying quietly in the box was a long sword, with a slender and straight blade and a cold metallic luster. The sword was engraved with mysterious runes, looming, as if telling of its extraordinaryness. The hilt was inlaid with precious gems, which complemented the exquisite patterns on the scabbard, making it even more luxurious. This long sword exuded a powerful aura unique to the second-level spiritual weapon, which was many times stronger than the first-level superior long sword that Shen Yun had used before, as if it could cut through all obstacles with just a slight swing.
"Father, this is too expensive." Before Shen Yun could say anything, Shen Batian on the side couldn't help but speak to Shen Qingfeng.
"Go away, what do you want to do? This is a gift for my grandson." Shen Qingfeng frowned slightly and waved his hand impatiently, signaling Shen Batian not to say anything more. His eyes then turned to Shen Yun, his eyes full of love and concern, and then he asked, "How is it, does Yun'er like it?"
"Thank you, grandpa. I like it very much." Shen Yun's face showed a look of surprise, and his eyes were shining with joy.
"Hahaha, as long as you like it." Shen Qingfeng laughed with satisfaction, his laughter was full of relief and pride.
His eyes fell on the sword, and he continued, "This sword is called Jinghong, and I got it by chance. This sword was originally a second-grade upper-grade spiritual weapon. The sword body is silver-white, and the blade is extremely sharp. When it is wielded, it is like a glimpse of a stunning beauty, which is very beautiful. But over the long years, it has suffered heavy damage, and its grade has dropped. Now it can barely be considered a second-grade middle-grade spiritual weapon. But even if it is only a second-grade middle-grade, I think it is enough for you now. You must cherish it, and use it to eliminate all evil in the world in the future and spread the reputation of my family!"
"Yes, Grandpa." Shen Yun responded respectfully, his voice full of respect and gratitude for his grandfather. He tightly grasped the sword named Jinghong, as if he could feel the power and expectations contained in it.
"Yes, if you have the opportunity to find some high-level refining materials in the future, you can naturally repair it." Shen Qingfeng nodded slightly, his eyes full of expectation and encouragement. He slowed down and continued, "There are many opportunities in this world. Maybe in a certain experience, you will encounter those precious materials. At that time, you can make this Jinghong sword shine again. You must remember that the road of cultivation is long, with opportunities and challenges. You must not slack off, but constantly pursue progress and work hard for your goals." Shen Qingfeng said earnestly, his eyes always fell on Shen Yun, as if he wanted to deeply imprint his experience and teachings in Shen Yun's heart.
"My grandson will follow my grandfather's teachings."
"Very good, now that this matter is settled, the rest is up to you to handle." Shen Qingfeng said calmly, with an unquestionable majesty in his voice. After that, he slowly took out a jade slip, which was crystal clear and emitted a faint light. He solemnly handed it to Shen Jingyuan.
"Once you take the position of patriarch, you must assume corresponding responsibilities, put the interests of the family first, and lead the development of the family with fairness and wisdom. You must always keep a clear head, have insight into changes in the world, and make wise decisions. At the same time, you must also focus on the training and unity of family members, so that everyone can find a sense of belonging and value in the family. Not only that, you must also actively respond to external challenges and threats, maintain good relations with other forces, and strive for more resources and development space for the family. In short, the position of patriarch is a heavy responsibility, and you must not be lazy or negligent." Shen Qingfeng looked at Shen Jingyuan with a sharp gaze and said earnestly.
"Yes, father." Shen Jingyuan bowed his head slightly and respectfully stretched out his hands to take the jade slip. His face was solemn, as if he was promising his father that he would shoulder the responsibility of the clan leader.
"If there is an emergency in the future, crush this jade slip and I will be there in an instant." Shen Qingfeng paused and reminded again: "Don't bother me with trivial matters, otherwise I will peel off your skin."
