He Who Laughs Last

  At the thought of losing Jinshan, I couldn't help but feel a surge of anger rising from my heart and evil intentions brewing in my gut, finally unleashing the energy of the small universe, and managed to think of a way!

  "Respected master, I'm a bit tired today. I hope I can rest for the night and try again tomorrow morning. Is that okay?"

  "Possible, but how long do you want to try?" the master asked

  "If I can't make it tomorrow, then I give up!"

  "Alright, tomorrow then! Follow me, I'll arrange your accommodations!" The tribe leader took over.

  We arrived at a special mansion prepared for us. The clan leader and the masters all bid farewell, hurrying to study the magic sword. I was called by my mother, "What's going on tomorrow?"

  "This, hehe, I have no choice but to stall for time! Maybe tomorrow will be fine?"

  "Hmph! I told you earlier, don't underestimate the accumulation of thousands of years by the dwarf tribe! Now you know how formidable it is, right? The White Discard magic sword is worth at least two million!" Mom got angrier and pinched me several times!

  "Don't squeeze! Mom! It hurts!"

  "Does it hurt? You only know your own pain! Why don't you think about how your mom's heart hurts?"

  "Mom! This time I didn't make a profit, and I even lost 2 million. According to what we agreed on sharing the benefits equally, you should compensate me with 1 million!"

  "Nonsense, you owe me money, what makes you look for me?"

  "You said we'd go halves?"

  "I said I'd share half of the profit with you, but I didn't say I'd also help you split the loss in half!"

  "What? Mom, is this how you do business?"

  "Cut the nonsense! Haha!" Mom couldn't help but laugh too, "Serves you right! Who told you to be so rich, anyway? You don't even care about this little bit of money. Just admit defeat yourself, haha!"

  "I protest! Mother, isn't this obviously bullying?"

  "Mom will have to recognize her as a daughter, hold a banquet, and give gifts, all of which cost money! The money is all spent on you, what can mom use to hold a banquet? Maybe wait until mom has some money before recognizing her!"

  Threat! This is an outright threat! I've never seen anyone spend 1 million yuan on a banquet before! At most, they'd spend tens of thousands and that's it! I seriously said to my mom: "Mom, you focus on your own affairs, I don't lack this bit of money, let's just forget about it!" Then Mom, our agreement is terminated, right?!

  "Alright! Let's stop here!" Mom said happily.

  "Then I'll go rest first, goodbye mom!"

  "Goodbye!"

  Back in my bedroom, I took off my clothes and got into bed to meditate and practice my skills. I practiced until the middle of the night before stopping, although there's no moon here, so I was just estimating. Now that everyone is resting, I brought out the long-unused Golden Lotus and retrieved my treasured family heirloom, the Hao Tian Divine Sword. It now floats quietly in front of me, three feet long and two fingers wide, with billions of stars on its black surface moving along a mysterious trajectory. This sword is known as the number one divine weapon under the nine heavens and ten earths, so it can easily cleave through that knife. However, with my current abilities, I am unable to wield it, and can only use it like an ordinary sword for chopping. Even if I were to try and force my way through the Nine Heavens Mysterious Iron with brute strength, even the Hao Tian Divine Sword might not be able to do so. So I thought of using the "Zhen" character technique from the Supreme Grade Sword Technique, dividing my energy into dense, concentrated bursts of power that are extremely powerful! The technical requirements for this technique are also very high, and since it's been a long time since I last practiced, now is a good opportunity to practice again.

  The next day, just after breakfast, the tribal chief and the master arrived with the elders!

  After the pleasantries, the master said: "Yesterday we studied for a whole night and didn't come up with anything. I heard that Your Highness had once auctioned off a fake magic sword, would you be willing to share the secret?"

  "Those were all made by my youngest son, I'm busy with business all day, when would I have time to forge a precious sword?"

  "Oh? So young master has such skills! I wonder if you can tell me?"

  "Master! Has the dwarven art of smithing been taught to humans or elves?"

  "Alas, no! I understand what you mean!" The master said regretfully.

  "Alright, let's just drop it! Hehe, little guy, are you admitting defeat today?" the tribe leader said.

  "Come on!" Mom said

  "No, Mom! I want to try it once!" I said hastily: "Just try it once!"

  "If you can't do it, then don't bother others!" Mom said discontentedly.

  "Hehe, I think I'll let him try it out anyway!" the master said.

  "Alright then, let's go!" said the tribal chief.

  We arrived at the secret room again. I pushed them all behind me, with my back to them, and secretly took out the Huáng Tiān Divine Sword from the spatial ring where I had put it last night, pouring all the spiritual energy into it, using the Zhèn character technique, and made a move "Draw Sword Cut Water" to heavily slash at the knife blade. All of a sudden, there was a loud clanging sound of metal hitting metal, with sparks flying everywhere. The shock left my ears ringing and my hands numb! I quickly hid the Huáng Tiān Divine Sword in the ring again, and came over to examine the knife blade. Indeed, there was a mark on it, only slightly deeper than a strand of hair, and if you didn't look closely, you wouldn't be able to see it! Fortunately, the knife's edge was very smooth, and that small notch was extremely eye-catching. Everyone who had gathered around stared at the notch for a long time without saying a word!

  "The master first regained his composure and said: 'This is simply a miracle, how did you manage to do it?'"

  "Yes, come on!" Several elders also asked in confusion, and even mom looked at me with a bewildered expression.

  The poor Taoist made a mysterious gesture and said: "It's a secret!"

  Whoa! Everyone has fainted!

  Mom couldn't help it and rushed over, pinching my ear and saying: "Are you going to say or not? If not, then wait to become a deaf person!"

  "Mom, Jinshan is in a hurry!"

  Mom immediately let go of me and turned to the clan leader with a smile, saying: "Hehe, who do you think won this bet?"

  "Ah, I didn't expect it! The princess is yours!" the tribal chief said helplessly.

  "No! Father, he's left such a small mark, yet you say it's only as big as a grain of rice!" Han Mo said.

  "He can cause one wound and then two, three, until countless times, it's just a matter of time!" the tribe leader said.

  "What if his tool is damaged?" Han Mo said

  "Hanmo, it's not what you said. The key to this gamble lies in whether the value of this weapon is higher than that of a divine artifact. We thought it was because of its indestructibility, but now he has proven that this weapon can be destroyed. Whether or not he can do it again proves this point, which means that the value of this thing is not as high as a divine artifact. We lost this gamble! You remember we are proud dwarves, we can lose, but we cannot default! Do you understand?"

  "Ah! Understood!" Hanmo said

  "What do you want, Princess?" the tribal leader said

  "What do you think, son? I think this knife might be more valuable?" Mom asked me.

  "Are you kidding me? Do you still think it can be sold? Forget about it! It's heavy enough to crush someone, but absolutely not sharp enough to kill anyone!"

  "How could it not be cut off?" Mom asked strangely

  "Because no one can even move it, let alone chop people with it!"

  "Perhaps we can melt it down and make a new weapon?"

  "Good idea! Are you planning to use a 16th-level or 17th-level spell to melt it? At least a 15th-level one won't work!"

  "Oh no! Damn it! How could I forget?! The clan leader still wants that sword!" Mom said to the clan leader.

  "Alright!" The tribal elder handed the sword over to his mother.

  Mom just took it over and was robbed by me. I couldn't give this golden mountain to anyone else!
