“大 Cleaving Talisman!” The bright-eyed, quick-witted girl’s eyes glittered as she explained. “This absolutely must be a Great Cleaving Talisman crafted by an array grandmaster at the peak of Void Profound — only then would there even be a fifty-percent chance of success.”
“Paired with the Heaven-Probing Locking Disk, it’s an array the world has no answer for. Truly an invincible formation.”
“Your Highness, this single Great Cleaving Talisman is a one-time-use treasure. Its value… roughly enough to buy one of the prefectures in your three-prefecture fiefdom. In fact, it could buy an entire prefecture.” A sheen of moisture gathered at the corner of the girl’s mouth.
She stared in dumbfounded horror at the two black-clad figures busily working beyond the temple wall. “What kind of prodigal son would spend such a price and be willing to part with such a treasure?”
“Ah, ah—pair that Heaven-Probing Locking Disk with the Great Cleaving Talisman and it ought to be used to assassinate the emperor… or to frame some temple… it’s just—” The girl stamped her foot with regret. “Isn’t that like using a butcher’s cleaver to kill a chick?”
Lu Qian just looked at her.
This girl’s knowledge was vast — she could rattle off names like the Heaven-Probing Locking Disk and the Great Cleaving Talisman.
Lu Qian had never even heard of them.
