" Finally found it! Thank you for showing me the way." Standing in front of the weapon shop that he set out to find, Chu Yang smiled happily as he thanked the person beside him who had shown him the way.
"No problem, it is quite hard to find a new shop like this. Helping you young'uns is the duty of us old ones." The man standing beside Chu Yang was a kind looking elderly man, who looked more than happy to help, as he slowly made his way back to whatever he was doing beforehand upon seeing that Chu Yang had indeed found the place he was looking for.
Chu Yang waved goodbye to the kind elderly man before finally turning around and facing the weapon shop.
The weapon shop looked like any random weapon shop you would find, with the only difference being the fact that it looked way cleaner and more orderly, most likely due to the fact that it was the first day that it was open.
"I hope that I can at least find a good spear at the earth rank…" Muttering so to himself, Chu Yang entered the weapon shop.

Should we wait for a while longer, or should we go for it?" The elder following Elder Ling asked him as he watched Chu Yang enter a weapon shop from the roof of a nearby building.
"Hm… For now, let's watch for a few more minutes, if nothing out of the ordinary happens by then we will take action." Thinking about it for a while, Elder Ling answered as he narrowed his eyes at Chu Yang who was currently looking at the various spears inside of the weapon shop.
No matter what, they were still inside what could be considered enemy territory. Acting would most definitely cause a lot of commotion and alert the experts inside of the Flying Sword Sect.
They had to be perfect when they acted, or they could both end up in a bad situation. Waiting for a few more minutes was nothing to them, as they had just mindlessly watched Chu Yang walk around in a circle around the central square for two hours straight.
Remembering it, Elder Ling almost felt like exploding in anger! No matter how dumb they are, there was no way that they were going to fall for such an obvious trap!
…
When Chu Yang had entered the shop, he had immediately spotted the ordinary looking spear among the other earth rank spears in a corner of the shop.
At first, he had thought that it was a mistake that it was there among the powerful looking earth rank spears, but after grabbing hold of it, Chu Yang felt how heavy it was compared to the rest of the spears, while he also discovered how dull the spear tip was.
The spear was almost like a giant heavy hammer used by some of the more unique cultivators to smash their opponents to death, just in the form of a spear.
Maybe he would be able to smash people to death with his spear in the future? There were even some spear techniques in the soul spear divine mantra that required a heavy spear to smash one's opponent to death.
Thinking a bit about it, Chu Yang decided that he would get the heavy spear. Not thinking twice about why the so-called soul spear divine mantra had spear techniques that required the user to use his spear like a giant sledgehammer to smash his enemies to death with.
"Are you sure you want this spear? Even though it is indeed at the earth rank, it's only because it is sturdier compared to other spears… When it comes to the sharpness of the tip, it's even worse than most mortal rank weapons… But I guess you would already know that…" The shop owner glanced down at the spear in Chu Yang's hand as he said this.
"Yes!" Having a confident smile on his face, Chu Yang took out the spirit stones required and paid the shop owner.
"Haha… I have nothing to say, it is after all still an earth rank weapon so the price should of course match… Anything else?" Smiling widely upon getting the right amount of spirit stones from Chu Yang, the store owner quickly put them away before asking.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"No thank you." Shaking his head, a bit, Chu Yang picked up the heavy spear with some difficulty and carried it with him as he walked out of the weapon shop.
At the very least, he was allowed to carry weapons openly inside of the Flying Sword City as a disciple of the Flying Sword Sect.
…
At the same time that the two elders from the demonic sect were quietly getting ready to make their move on Chu Yang, Xuan Hao had just gotten back to his pavilion. Only to find out that it was completely empty at the moment, outside of Zhi Ruo who was quietly taking some time to relax inside the small garden besides the greenhouse that Chu Yang spent most of his time practicing botany.
Xuan Hao decided to not disturb her, as it was quite rare to see her taking time to relax and instead spread out his divine sense to try and find out where both of his disciples were currently at.
Spreading out his divine sense was widely different from the passive version where the divine sense just covered a few hundred meters around him, this did not require any effort on his part compared to actively spreading out his divine sense.
This was also one of the reasons why most Nascent Soul Realm cultivators could easily be bypassed as long as you did not enter the area covered by their passive divine sense.
"Hm…? This is?" As he spread out his divine sense to cover the Flying Sword Sect, Xuan Hao quickly found Qing Yi on her way back from the Alchemy Hall with a few books in hand, but Chu Yang was still nowhere in sight.
Guess he should be somewhere in the Flying Sword City…
With this in mind, Xuan Hao quickly had his divine sense that covered the Flying Sword Sect retreat back, before he refocused it on the Flying Sword City.
