Seven Deadly Sins System-Chapter 92: Reaching a Deal
When the voice sounded in her ears, the image of an old man with a long white beard appeared inexplicably in Chu Wuyao’s mind.
Although there was no one else in the house apart from her and the cowardly man on the ground, Chu Wuyao wasn’t surprised to hear this voice.
She understood that it was not coming from a person, but from the piece of metal in her palm.
Since it was the first time that she had seen an otherwise dead object having intelligence, Chu Wuyao found it a little strange.
However, she quickly suppressed her thoughts and was about to answer, when her gaze landed on the man on the ground.
At this time, the man’s abdomen had sunk in and he had blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, but his head was raised and he staring at her with a look of desperation, mixed with a hint of hope.
"Go to sleep.", Chu Wuyao whispered and then, without any hesitation, she hit him on the back of his head, knocking him unconscious.
Only after she did so did she turn her attention to the fragment of a Dao Weapon.
"Are you interested in following me?", she looked at metal and asked bluntly.
In response to her question, the metal in her palm shook and it communicated with her with its thoughts.
"Don’t think about it."
Even though it was just a piece of metal, Chu Wuyao could imagine an old man shaking his head repeatedly.
Although Chu Wuyao was a little disappointed to hear this answer, she didn’t show anything.
From the fact that this fragment of Dao Weapon could communicate with her, it was obvious that unlike her black sword, its intelligence hadn’t been wiped out.
Chu Wuyao knew that even though it seemed like she had the upper hand and she had trapped the metal in her palm, this was obviously not the whole truth.
In fact, this only happened because this Dao Weapon wasn’t willing to pay the price to deal with her.
By now, Chu Wuyao had understood that the cowardly man on the ground was actually the masked man that had distracted Li Ruoshi and allowed her to escape.
She had already found this while they were inside the secret space and it was Chu Wuyao who had controlled him to fight against senior sister Yue.
Obviously, it was this fragment of a Dao Weapon that had allowed this weak man to fight against Li Ruoshi and senior sister Yue.
However, judging by his weak appearance, it was clear that he had to pay a price to obtain such strength.
Chu Wuyao was certain that if she pushed it too far, this Dao Weapon would take action against her, even if this meant that it would overdraw the vitality of the man and put him danger.
If that was not enough, with the powerful defensive ability of a Dao Weapon, Chu Wuyao could do nothing about it.
Let alone destroying, she would not be able to leave a scratch on it.
This was also why Dao Weapons were very rare and precious.
After all, even if a cultivator managed to obtain a Dao Weapon, if it wasn’t willing to follow them, they could only grit their teeth and curse their bad luck.
Thinking of this, Chu Wuyao didn’t insist and changed the topic.
"Do you have any technique that can reach the Shackles Realm?", she asked.
Chu Wuyao hadn’t forgotten that to break through the Shackles Realm, she needed to obtain a suitable technique.
The only technique she could currently get was the Original Desire Sutra, but to get the next chapter, she had to reveal her realm to the sect.
Even though she guessed that the Original Desire Sect had already found out about her strength by now, Chu Wuyao would be more than happy if there was any other way to get a suitable technique.
Unfortunately, the fragment in her hand shook slightly.
"No."
"Do you have any powerful skill?", Chu Wuyao asked reluctantly.
The fragment shook once again and it was about to say "no", when it saw that Chu Wuyao’s expression was starting to turn cold.
"I’m a Magic Weapon. Why would I memorize human techniques and skills?", it tried to explain.
Secretly speechless, Chu Wuyao could only admit that what it was saying made sense.
It would indeed be strange if a Magic Weapon were to collect human techniques and skills for no reason.
But knowing this, she still wouldn’t be willing to leave like this.
It was already hard to resist stealing this Dao Weapon, how could she be willing to leave empty-handed?
"What can you do for me?", Chu Wuyao calmed down and asked.
As a Dao Weapon, the fragment in her palm had lived for many years and instantly understood that it had to offer something, otherwise their communication would break down.
Many thoughts passed through its mind and soon, its voice rang in Chu Wuyao’s ears.
"I can promise you that I’ll take action one time."
Hearing this, Chu Wuyao was secretly happy, but on the surface, she shook her head: "No, you have to take action at least 50 times. Moreover, you have to answer any question I may have in the future."
"Are you crazy? Do you know how hard it is to take action in my current state?", an old, male, scolding voice sounded.
Soon, a strange scene took place, with a human and a piece of metal negotiating intensely and trying to convince each other.
In the end, the two of them agreed that the Dao Weapon would take action 5 times for her and it would answer her questions to the best of its ability, while Chu Wuyao promised that she would not harm the young man unless necessary.
To make sure that it would not lie, Chu Wuyao forced the Dao Weapon to sign a Devil’s Contract, ensuring that it would keep its word.
"Good.", Chu Wuyao finally nodded her head in satisfaction and felt that the piece of red metal in her hand seemed a little cute.
"By the way, old man, how did you end up like this?"
Having reached a deal, Chu Wuyao was quite happy and her tone became even more casual.
Perhaps the Dao Weapon hadn’t talked to anyone in a long time, but it didn’t refrain from answering.

"When I was at my peak, let alone you, even Supernatural Realm cultivators would have to kneel down for days before they were allowed to speak to me!"
"The Supernatural Realm cultivators that have died under my blade number in the hundreds, if not in the thousands!", the Dao Weapon bragged and was about to continue, when it was rudely interrupted.
"Sure enough, this world is very dangerous. You were actually so powerful but you still ended up as a piece of garbage. I have to be more cautious in the future.", Chu Wuyao sighed and whispered in a low voice.

The piece of metal in her hand stopped moving for a split second, before it started shaking violently and attack her palm as if it was its mortal enemy.
"Junior, what do you mean?", an old, angry voice soon rang in Chu Wuyao’s ears.
