Chapter 1509 Sword Goddess

1509 Sword Goddess

"Who won the auction?" Tian Qiyuan asked after storing away the money.

"That would be the Sword Goddess of the Unrivaled Nine Swords Sect," said Qing Ling'er.

"Sword Goddess? Never heard of her before." Tian Qiyuan casually commented.

"She is a prodigious Swordmaster in the Supreme Heaven, renowned for being the first to achieve a level of Sword Aura that surpasses even the Enhanced Sword Aura. I believe she named it Supreme Sword Aura. Do you wish to speak with her? She's still at the auction house."

Tian Qiyuan nodded, "Sure."

"Then I'll go inform her right now. Please wait a little, Senior Exalted Blacksmith."

After learning of Tian Qiyuan's identity, the Mystic Jade Auction Pavilion's attitude toward him changed. While they showed him respect at first, it wasn't directed at the person himself but the weapon he was carrying until they realized his true identity as the Exalted Blacksmith.

Sometime later, Qing Ling'er returned with another individual by her side.

She was an exceedingly beautiful woman. With a tall and slender body, long black hair, and golden eyes, she exuded an aura of dominance and pride.

"It's a pleasure to finally meet you, Senior Tian. I am Zi Xuan, one of nine Unrivaled Swords from the Unrivaled Nine Swords Sect." Zi Xuan bowed to him with the Violet Dream in her grasp.

Tian Qiyuan nodded, "The Violet Dream already suits you very much, Miss Zi. If you wish to commission me for a treasure, you will always have priority for a single commission."

"Then I would immediately like to commission you for another sword," she quickly said without an ounce of hesitation in her voice.

"Is this sword for yourself or someone else?" he asked.

"For myself."

"Alright. Here are my terms. First, you'll give me a brief description of what you're looking for in your sword. If you don't have any idea, I can make it based on your current abilities."

"Two, you'll supply me with all of the materials for the sword."

"Three, I will need half of the payment upfront and the other half once the sword is completed. If you're paying me with one of the materials on my list, I won't need any upfront payment."

"Lastly, I will only make one weapon per commission."

"Also, I won't accept any deadlines or tolerate being rushed. And don't even think about scamming me because you'll regret it dearly. Do you agree with my terms?"

Zi Xuan then said, "I agree. As for the payment, I have two of the materials you want. What kind of sword can I get with them?"

"Which two materials?" he inquired.

"The Empyrean Gold and Tempered Glacial Steel."

Tian Qiyuan pondered for a moment before responding, "For these two materials, I am willing to create a peak-quality Mystic-grade sword for you."

"Deal." Zi Xuan quickly agreed.

"Then I'll visit the Unrivaled Nine Swords Sect in a month for the details of your sword unless you have another preferred meeting spot."

"You can come here."

As if prepared beforehand, Zi Xuan retrieved a jade slip that contained information about a specific location and handed it to him.

After checking the information inside the jade slip, Tian Qiyuan nodded and said, "Then I will see you exactly a month from today. Thank you for purchasing my Violet Dream."

Just as Tian Qiyuan turned around to leave, Zi Xuan suddenly said, "Before you go, can I get your autograph?"

"Sure." Tian Qiyuan had no reason to refuse such a simple request.

Zi Xuan took out a piece of black cloth and asked, "Can you sign this?"

Tian Qiyuan raised an eyebrow when he saw the cloth's unique shape.

"Um… this is…"

"My underwear. It's my favorite, too."

Qing Ling'er's eyes widened with disbelief when she heard Zi Xuan's shocking words. She thought it was a joke, but when she saw Zi Xuan's dead serious expression, Qing Ling'er began doubting if she was in reality or inside an illusion.

"You're serious?" Tian Qiyuan had to make sure she wasn't messing with him.

"Of course." Zi Xuan confirmed with a confident head nod, leaving him speechless.

"..."

After a long moment of silence, Tian Qiyuan asked, "How do you want me to sign it?"

"You can just write your name on it using spiritual energy. I don't care if it's damaged."

"O-okay…"

Tian Qiyuan began writing his name on the piece of cloth by scribbling on it with his finger, which was imbued with spiritual energy, essentially engraving his name on the cloth.

After fulfilling her request, Tian Qiyuan cleared his throat and spoke in a stiff tone, "Then I will take my leave now…"

He disappeared into thin air the next moment.

Zi Xuan stared at the signed underwear with a profound smile on her face.

"..."

Qing Ling'er's body trembled at the sight. To her knowledge, Zi Xuan was an unfeeling, aloof figure who had never opened her heart to anyone, dedicating every fiber of her being to the mastery of the sword. However, Zi Xuan's actions just now contradicted everything Qing Ling'er knew about her.

"Then I'll take my leave, as well." Zi Xuan calmly said a moment later, acting like nothing strange had happened.

In the following days, Tian Qiyuan sought information about the Sword Goddess, Zi Xuan. However, he wasn't inquiring about her because of her weird request or because he was interested in her. Since he was going to make a sword for her, he was simply doing his due diligence as a blacksmith. After all, how could he possibly craft a sword tailored to someone he knows nothing about?

Until their meeting, Tian Qiyuan learned everything he could about Zi Xuan through public knowledge. Her demeanor, nature, habits, and whatnot. However, some of the information he gathered contradicted the Zi Xuan he met. Although their meeting wasn't long, it was enough for him to understand her character a little.

"Zi Xuan, huh? What a peculiar woman." Tian Qiyuan chuckled.

Once it was time for their scheduled meeting, Tian Qiyuan made his way to the location inside the jade slip Zi Xuan gave him.
