2050 The Door Will Open For You
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice.
The person who spoke was Shangguan Jing.
Wei Ze smiled coldly. “Senior Shangguan, have you thought it through? Didn’t you say just now that you’re only here to join in the fun?”
Shangguan Jing chuckled. “What’s there to hesitate about? The family head is willing to offer the Sharp-Edged Halberd. Why can’t we give it a try? Besides, I’m indeed here to join in the fun, but it looks like… no one is willing to move? In that case, I can only do it myself! We can’t just sit here and watch, right?”
Wei Ze was speechless. “If that’s the case, then… please go ahead!”
As he spoke, he took a few steps back. It seemed like he was really planning to watch from the sidelines. Shangguan Jing isn’t even afraid of losing face, so what is there for me to worry about?
“Shangguan, are you really planning to go over?”
The few people at the side wanted to dissuade him, but Shangguan Jing shook his head with a smile. “What’s wrong with that? Although the family head failed, he’s fine, right? Since there’s no loss, what’s wrong with giving it a try?”
Seeing that Shangguan Jing had already made up his mind, the remaining people stopped trying to dissuade him.
“Then… be careful.”
Shangguan Jing still had a smile on his face as he strode forward.
This time, all eyes were focused on him.
Shangguan Jing came to the middle and raised his hand to hold the Sharp-Edged Halberd. He first weighed it twice, then infused it with his own power.
He raised his eyebrows. “This thing is still ownerless.”
Only in this way would he be able to continuously pour in his strength after Wei Ze finished using it. But without recognizing one as master, the power this thing could unleash was extremely low.
Hearing Shangguan Jing’s words, many people’s hearts wavered even more.
Holy weapons were extremely intelligent; they had always chosen their own masters. Without that opportunity, even if one held this thing for ten to a hundred years, it was still useless.
In their hands, it was impossible to display the true power of a holy weapon.
No wonder Wei Ze let it out so easily.
But looking at the situation in front of him, the Sharp-Edged Halberd didn’t seem to have any signs of acknowledging Shangguan Jing as its master.
Wei Ze closed his eyes and relaxed a little.
It was impossible not to be nervous.
After obtaining the Sharp-Edged Halberd, he had never been recognized and thus felt vexed. It was like guarding a mountain of gold, but unable to spend a single cent more.
This feeling was really uncomfortable.
He had actually thrown the Sharp-Edged Halberd out in a fit of anger. Now that he had calmed down, he felt a little regretful.
Now, he could only hope that these people wouldn’t be recognized by the Sharp-Edged Halberd…
Shangguan Jing sized up the Sharp-Edged Halberd for a while before holding it in his hand.
He raised his gaze slightly with a solemn expression. At the same time, he began to mobilize the power in his body!
Then, he suddenly stabbed out!
Clang!
The crisp sound of impact came again!
Everything in front of him still didn’t move. It was exactly the same reaction as when Wei Ze attacked!
Shangguan Jing frowned and stopped without hesitation. At this moment, he also sensed that something was wrong. The commotion inside wasn’t caused by the Sharp-Edged Halberd! Under such circumstances, it will be impossible to open it no matter what.
Wei Ze crossed his arms and laughed. “Senior Shangguan, how do you feel after you tried it yourself? I think… this doesn’t seem to be any different from what I did just now, right?”
Shangguan Jing didn’t care about his mockery. It would be strange if Tang Ke’s tomb was really that easy to open. Moreover, the key to opening the door is clearly not the Sharp-Edged Halberd. What else is there to say?
“This Sharp-Edged Halberd isn’t the key to opening Tang Ke’s tomb,” Shangguan Jing casually threw the Sharp-Edged Halberd and said.
Wei Ze didn’t expect him to reveal the secret so bluntly, and he felt a little angry. But after thinking about it carefully, this matter couldn’t be hidden to begin with, so there was actually nothing to mind.
He took a deep breath and calmed himself down.
“Senior Shangguan, what do you mean?”
Someone asked, “This Sharp-Edged Halberd was definitely personally refined by Tang Ke back then! How can it be useless? If even this can’t work, then…”
Then, they really had no choice.
Shangguan Jing focused his gaze and looked at the bronze door knocker again.
This was actually the strangest thing to him.
Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat. He vaguely felt that the patterns on the bronze door knocker seemed familiar. It was as if… he had seen it somewhere before?
He took a step forward.
A ball of red flames appeared again! It was about to surround Shangguan Jing in an instant!
“Be careful!”
No one expected Shangguan Jing to suddenly step forward.
They had clearly learned their lesson previously. If one rashly approached, they would definitely trigger an attack!
Shangguan Jing reacted quickly. This time, he could clearly see that the flames were surging out from the bronze door knocker!
His expression turned stern, and he immediately set up a barrier around him! But at the same time, the force in his body seemed to be affected by the flames—it surged rapidly as if it was boiling!
The scorching temperature quickly invaded his body!
Shoo!
A ball of red flames suddenly erupted from his left shoulder!
Shangguan Jing thought to himself, Oh no! This is a sign that I’m about to explode and die!
But at this moment, a scarlet-golden flame suddenly flew over and surrounded him!
The red flames were instantly devoured!
“Who’s there?!” When everyone saw the commotion, they immediately turned around!
A slender and exquisite figure was quickly approaching!
Chu Liuyue grabbed her ancestor’s arm and was about to retreat.
Suddenly, the bronze door knocker shone brightly!
