Chapter 574 Naming it, could you get any more casual?
The Cepheus Guardian had initially intended to intimidate Alice with his identity as a Creator Deity-level powerhouse.
When he made his offer, he had already envisioned Alice kneeling down in excitement, begging to be acknowledged by him.
Even if she already had a master, she would at least treat him with respect and then politely decline…
Who could have anticipated Alice being so defiant?
Especially that disdainful laugh, it completely caught the Cepheus Guardian off guard.
A Creator Deity in the Divine Realm is definitely considered a top-tier being, with countless people pleading to become his disciple, and he hadn’t agreed to any of them. 𝘦𝑎.𝒸ℴ
Now, to be publicly rejected by a mere Mortal Deity!
And in front of so many people, no less!
The Cepheus Guardian would not believe Alice was intentionally hiding her strength to appear weaker because, at his level of power, only a few in the entire Divine Realm could hide their strength from him.
Clearly, Alice was not among those few.
The only possibility was that Alice’s master was someone of significant importance!
“Young girl, don’t be too arrogant! Who is your master? Hasn’t he taught you to respect your elders?” The face of the Cepheus Guardian was somewhat unable to hang on.
Although it’s not allowed to engage in physical fights within the Sacred Gem Exchange, he still released his energy pressure to envelop Alice.
As a towering Creator Deity exerting energy pressure on a Mortal Deity, it’s like Dwayne Johnson standing in front of a child, without even needing to make a move, Alice would surely cower right there in front of him, allowing him to salvage some face.
Alice, noticing this person claiming to be the Cepheus Guardian staring at her, was somewhat puzzled and frowned, “Why are you staring at me?”
“Hmm?”
The Cepheus Guardian was even more puzzled.
This isn’t right!
A mere Mortal Deity, even with exceptional talent and protected by the power of the Holy Aura, should easily be overpowered given the vast difference in strength levels.
William glanced at the Cepheus Guardian, this shameless old man, daring to bully his wife by using his superior strength?
With just one look, the Cepheus Guardian’s complexion drastically changed, and he suddenly knelt in front of Alice. The stone flooring of the courtyard cracked widely, startling Alice so much that she almost instinctively struck him with her sword.
“You… you don’t have to do this…” Although Alice had become much braver now, the sight of this white-haired old man kneeling before her in front of so many people felt somewhat improper!
Everyone in the courtyard was utterly stunned.
What’s going on?
The Cepheus Guardian actually kneeled to Alice?
Has he lost his mind?
At this moment, the Cepheus Guardian’s mind was in complete disarray.
He realized that a genuinely powerful being had just exerted pressure on him.
This person must be at least at the Supreme Deity level…
Indeed, could Alice be a disciple of some Supreme Deity?
And here he was, trying to intimidate Alice by exerting his energy pressure?
The Cepheus Guardian looked around but failed to spot any mysterious powerful figures.
Alice took a couple of steps back and said to the Cepheus Guardian, “You better get up now; I’m about to start cutting the stone.”
After she spoke, the pressure on the Cepheus Guardian dissipated, and he finally stood up, retreating to the side in silence.
Alice breathed a sigh of relief, lifted the Sword of Soulbreaker, and carefully cut into the ore.
As the sword fell, the massive raw crystal ore split open, revealing a blue staff.
Instantly, a terrifying chill spread out, enveloping the entire Gem Exchange in a bleak white mist, filled with a chilling murderous aura.
“Is this… an ancient Dark Artifact?”
“Mined from the ancient abyss, who knows the origins of this staff!”
“Ancient Dark Artifacts possess their own consciousness; how could such a significant Dark Artifact submit to her, a mere Mortal Deity?”
…
Just then, the Sword Spirit of the Sword of Soulbreaker let out a cold laugh and taunted the ancient Dark Artifact, “Little broken stick! How many pieces do you want to become?”
The ancient Dark Artifact trembled violently, and all its chilling aura was retracted.
Even ancient Dark Artifacts, when faced with absolute overpowering strength, had no choice but to submit.
The Sword of Soulbreaker, personally forged by William, claimed the souls of ancient beasts with its blade.
The power of a Creator Deity level being was hardly worth William drawing his sword for.
As for this ancient Dark Artifact, no matter its origins, could it possibly rival the backstory of the Sword of Soulbreaker?
Even among thousands of divine artifacts in the world, all pale in comparison to the Sword of Soulbreaker.
Alice had been frightened by the aura emitted by the ancient Dark Artifact and secretly asked her Sword Spirit, “Can we take this thing out?”
The Sword Spirit of the Sword of Soulbreaker laughed, “As long as you, my master, wish to retrieve this broken stick, then it can be done. If it dares to resist, I’ll slash it into several pieces.”
Having spent much time with William, the Sword Spirit of the Sword of Soulbreaker feared neither heaven nor earth. To it, all ancient Dark Artifacts were nothing but trash.
Hearing the Sword Spirit say this, Alice slowly reached out her hand towards the Dark Artifact.
The ancient Dark Artifact emitted a faint trembling sound.
In its view, Alice was still too weak, and it was somewhat reluctant to have Alice as its master.
However, the oppressive force emanating from the Sword of Soulbreaker was too intense. With the sword in her left hand and grabbing the ancient Dark Artifact with her right, the staff dared not move an inch.
Just as the Sword of Soulbreaker had inquired, how many pieces did it wish to become?
It certainly didn’t want to be broken into pieces just after being released!
With a slight tremble of her hand, Alice successfully retrieved the ancient Dark Artifact.
The surrounding spectators were all dumbfounded.
My goodness, what kind of background does this girl have?
Without using any secret techniques, or even revealing any powerful aura of energy, that ancient Dark Artifact simply surrendered.
Since when did such a powerful ancient Dark Artifact with a Weapon Spirit become so easy to tame?
From the behavior of this Dark Artifact, it was clear it had developed a consciousness!
Could it be that the Weapon Spirit generated by this staff was a bit foolish?
“Got it! It’s a bit heavy.” Alice frowned, having nearly exhausted her strength to retrieve this Dark Artifact.
By now, her strength was not insignificant.
Upon hearing Alice’s comment, the Weapon Spirit of the ancient Dark Artifact immediately became much lighter.
It was no small feat for this ancient Dark Artifact to be released. Although the humanoid creature holding it did not seem very powerful, the sword in her hand was extremely strong.
Subservience should look like subservience.
Alice could feel the staff becoming lighter and laughed, “So it’s conscious and quite obedient.”
The Weapon Spirit of the ancient Dark Artifact might not be able to communicate with people like the Sword of Soulbreaker could, and it just vibrated again in response.
Obedient?
Someone actually dared to evaluate it like this!
“I should give it a name.”
Alice thought, how about calling it the Frost Wand?
“What Frost Wand? Just call it Little Broken Stick!” said the Sword of Soulbreaker. “The master should be creative; the name should be unique.”
“Little Broken Stick?” Alice nodded, holding the ancient Dark Artifact in her hand, “From now on, you’ll be called Little Broken Stick.”
The ancient Dark Artifact…
Little Broken Stick trembled to express its protest, but the Sword Spirit of the Sword of Soulbreaker quickly asked, “What, you question the name I chose for you? You need to understand your place!”
Damn!
If Little Broken Stick could cry, it would surely be bawling…
Was this bullying?
The elites of the Divine Alliance listening to the name Alice had chosen didn’t know what to say.
Naming it, could you get any more casual?
This is a powerful ancient Dark Artifact!
Is this name really appropriate?
But now, they were even more puzzled by Alice and dared not make any rash moves.
