Chapter 23 Famous Swords of Ancient China
The Shen Family's Treasure Trove!
After giving his instructions to Su Fan, Yuan Qingsheng left to continue guarding the skies above the Shen family's ancestral home, preventing assassins from continuing to try to kill Su Fan.
At this moment, Su Fan, Shen Shuang, and Shen Jianyi returned to the Shen family's treasure vault and arrived at the extraordinary items area!
"Brothers, look at that big shield! Those ancient, mysterious, and intricate patterns on it are definitely something special!"
"Yes! And that golden staff, doesn't it look like the golden cudgel of the Monkey King, Sun Wukong?"
"Come on, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, Sun Wukong, is an SSS-level god. How could the weapons he uses be comparable to these extraordinary items that aren't even divine artifacts?"
"It truly lives up to its reputation as the Shen family's treasure trove; the items stored here are comparable to the treasure vaults of some small cities!"
"Of course! M City is the third largest city in China, and the Shen family is one of the most prestigious and powerful families in M City!"
"How much money could all these extraordinary items fetch?!"
"I'm not sure, but it's probably priceless!"
"..."
Su Fan calmly scanned the extraordinary items in the area.
Compared to the area with statues of gods, the area with extraordinary items has a much larger quantity of items.
Moreover, Su Fan didn't recognize ordinary extraordinary items. What he was thinking about now was whether there were any divine artifacts mixed in with these extraordinary items.
He's trying to snag a bargain!
Therefore, unlike when choosing a statue of a god, Su Fan didn't just glance at it and head straight for his target.
He was extremely careful and meticulous in his selection this time, taking a second look at each extraordinary item.
This also allowed everyone in the live stream to enjoy the opportunity to appreciate the Shen family's treasure trove of artifacts one by one.
Occasionally, when viewers see exceptional items in excellent condition, they will offer their comments.
Some viewers even placed bids directly in the live stream when they saw extraordinary items that suited them or appealed to them!
"Patriarch Shen, I'll take this sword. Is 20 enough?"
"20? You're throwing money at a beggar! Does the Shen family need that little bit of money?"
"Exactly! This is blatantly an attempt to get something for free. Just look at the appearance of this sword; it's worth at least 500 million!"
Su Fan searched through area after area, but still couldn't find anything that resembled a divine artifact.
Just when he was about to give up and prepare to pick any decent-quality extraordinary sword to use.
He happened to glance at an old, yellowed book that was pressing down on a sword. From Su Fan's perspective, he could only see the hilt of the sword.
But it was this uniquely designed hilt that delighted him.
The core is made of pear wood and wrapped with vermilion lacquered silk rope!
The sword guard features a taotie pattern and is made of high-quality steel, with jade inlaid at the pommel!
This is one of the ten most famous swords in ancient China.
Longquan sword!
Su Fan walked over and carefully drew the Longquan sword, only to find that the blade was covered with a layer of rust, making it dull and unlike the sharp appearance that a Longquan sword should have.
Could it be that they mistook me for someone else?
Su Fan pondered, feeling a pang of disappointment.
【Ding! 】
[Congratulations, host, on discovering one of the ten most famous swords of ancient China, the Longquan Sword (SS)!]
Reforging the Longquan Sword restores its glory and grants bonus popularity points.
[The system grants you 1 free method for forging a Longquan sword]
The system suddenly beeped, startling Su Fan.
However, Su Fan's heart then became excited.
Su Fan turned to Shen Jianyi: "Patriarch Shen, I want this sword!"
Shen Jianyi paused for a moment, then asked, "Aren't we going to keep looking? There are still some areas we haven't seen yet?"
Su Fan shook his head: "No need, this sword is fine. I feel a connection with it!"
The live stream chat was buzzing with discussion!
"What kind of taste does the streamer have? Why does he always pick these pieces of junk?"
"That's right, extraordinary items are different from statues of gods. The broken sword the streamer is holding doesn't look like a powerful extraordinary item at all."
"You're so confused, streamer! I admit you're great at identifying deities, but this extraordinary item isn't a statue of a god!"
"Yeah! The anchor is too arrogant!"
"..."
Shen Jianyi, glancing at the comments in the live stream, couldn't help but advise Su Fan.
"Su Fan, these extraordinary items aren't like statues of gods, you..."
What Shen Jianyi wanted to say was that Su Fan could identify god statues with 100% accuracy, but he couldn't identify extraordinary items with 100% accuracy!
But after hesitating for a moment, he ultimately decided not to strike at Su Fan.
Shen Shuang, standing to the side, also began to intervene, her cool voice tinged with concern: "Su Fan, how about... you choose a different extraordinary item?"
"I have quite a few extraordinary items in my family's treasure vault. I think that extraordinary sword you just looked at is quite good."
The extraordinary sword that Shen Shuang mentioned was the best-quality sword that Su Fan saw in the middle area.
At that time, Su Fan thought that the extraordinary sword looked a lot like the Xuanyuan Sword, one of the ten famous swords of ancient China, so he couldn't help but linger for a while.
Unexpectedly, Shen Shuang remembered it and thought that Su Fan liked that extraordinary sword but was too embarrassed to take it away.
But Shen Shuang clearly underestimated Su Fan's shamelessness. If Su Fan knew what Shen Shuang was thinking, he would probably laugh himself to death.
Su Fan smiled and said, "President Shen, it's alright. I just like this kind of junk!"
Shen Shuang sighed and tried to dissuade her a few more times, but found it was no use.
Seeing Su Fan's resolute expression, she could only let him be.
Shen Jianyi wanted to continue trying to dissuade his daughter, but seeing that even his best efforts couldn't stop her, he had no choice but to give up.
However, he couldn't help feeling a little disappointed in Su Fan.
I thought Su Fan was the hope of China, but I never expected him to be so arrogant!
The trolls in the live stream were relentlessly mocking him!
"Ha! Ha! This is what Yuan Qingsheng calls the hope of China? I think it's despair!"
"The streamer's taste...sigh, I don't know what to say!"
"That's right! The key issue is that the streamer is extremely arrogant and won't listen to any other people's advice."
"Does the streamer think he's looking at supernatural items like he's looking at statues of gods?"
"I'm not mocking the streamer, but the streamer really needs to change this arrogant personality."
"If you want to stop a streamer from being arrogant, you might as well let them jump off a building. With that arrogant attitude, all I can say is 'heh!'"
"..."
In the live stream, Su Fan's haters and anti-China elements jumped out and launched a barrage of insults and mockery at him!
"No, I have to go and try to persuade the streamer!"
A seemingly insignificant comment floated across the live stream screen!
Then, the live stream froze for a moment, and then the screen was filled with "Supreme Carnival"!
[User: Master Jianbao Quan gifted 999 Supreme Carnival in the live stream of "Live Stream Master Jianshen"!]
Two bold red comments floated above the 【100% Insightful Viewer Livestream】.
"Host, this is just an ordinary sword, not even an extraordinary one."
"I am Lin Tianquan, a renowned expert in appraising artifacts from China. I would like to request a live chat with the host!"
In Su Fan's live stream, a message popped up requesting to connect with him.
