Chapter 51 This Sword Practices Discrimination-O pequeno coitadinho reconhecido pela família rica é, na verdade, um grande mestre do misticismo(Chuva no início do verão)

No one brought up the plain congee again. Bai Qianzhou simply devoured her meal in front of the dining table.

By the time Pei Yanlin reacted, Bai Qianzhou was already leaning back against her chair, comfortably hugging her stomach.

Well, she was full and satisfied now; as for that plain congee, whoever wanted it could drink it!

As for Pei Yanlin’s reproachful gaze, Bai Qianzhou chose to completely ignore it.

Remembering something, Bai Qianzhou took a few protective talismans from her pocket and spoke with a serious expression: "Keep these talismans close to your body. If you encounter any danger, the talismans will heat up to warn you."

"Alright." Pei Yanlin took the talismans and handed one to everyone.

After taking his talisman, Pei Hexun stood up and left the room, then returned holding a quaint wooden box in both hands, handing it over to Bai Qianzhou.

"Dad, why did you bring out this family heirloom that can't even be unsheathed?" The moment Pei Yanlin saw the box, he knew what was inside, and a look of disdain crossed his face.

Leaving everything else aside, although this item was an heirloom of the Pei family, no one had been able to draw the sword from its scabbard for several generations. Therefore, it could only be kept as a collection piece.

"Shut up." Pei Hexun shot Pei Yanlin a displeased glare, his tone carrying a trace of paternal authority.

"Zhouzhou, this is the sword you asked for. However, Yanlin is right, none of us have ever been able to draw this sword. I wonder what use you could possibly have for it?" Pei Hexun handed the sword over to Bai Qianzhou with utmost care.

Bai Qianzhou remained silent, calmly opening the box instead: What use? It was of immense use. With it, things like peach wood swords and copper coin swords would appear utterly insignificant.

Bai Qianzhou picked up the sword and, under the watchful eyes of everyone, applied a gentle force and drew it straight out.

"Truly a fine sword!" Bai Qianzhou’s eyes shone with excitement.

"This... it came out?" Pei Yanlin and Pei Yanhui stared at Bai Qianzhou in astonishment, disbelief written all over their faces.

"It came out, didn't it? It's quite simple. Give it a try." Bai Qianzhou slid the sword back into its scabbard, smiled faintly, and handed it to Pei Yanlin.

However, when Pei Yanlin and the others tried one after another, they only ended up looking embarrassed. Despite their best efforts, they were completely unable to draw the sword, their eyes filled with shock and helplessness.

"Wait, is this sword discriminating against us? Why can you draw it, but we can't? Dad, are you sure this is really our Pei family's heirloom?"

Pei Yanlin looked aggrievedly at Pei Hexun, suspecting that the sword was not a Pei family heirloom at all, but rather Bai Qianzhou's personal artifact.

Thus, when he said the word "family," Pei Yanlin intentionally emphasized his tone.

"I already let you try, and since you couldn't pull it out yourselves, that has nothing to do with me." Bai Qianzhou hugged the sword, her face beaming with smugness.

At this point, how could anyone still fail to understand? This girl had clearly done it on purpose.

"However, Mr. Pei, are you certain you want to give this sword to me?" Bai Qianzhou raised her head to look at Pei Hexun.

Pei Hexun smiled gently: "Wasn't this agreed upon long ago? You help me save Lulu, and I give you this sword."

Putting everything else aside, just the fact that Bai Qianzhou was Bailu's daughter made him more than willing to hand the sword over to her.

Attributing the gift to saving Bailu was merely meant to give her peace of mind in accepting it.

"Hehe." Bai Qianzhou hugged the sword and rubbed her cheek against it: "From now on, you belong to me. Please take good care of me."

Lifting her gaze to look at Pei Hexun, she noticed an increasingly dark red line appearing in Pei Hexun's palace of children, which instantly sent a thunderous shock through her mind.

Her pupils dilated abruptly, and a strong sense of ominous foreboding welled up from the bottom of her heart.
