Transmigrated Villain: Starting by Removing the Female Lead's Supreme Bone

"Judging from the extent of the damage, a fierce battle must have taken place. But who attacked Sword Forging Manor? And why?"

Zixia shook her head; she couldn't figure it out either.

"Could they be enemies of the Old Man of the Lonely Moon? After all, his sword-making skills are unparalleled, so it's inevitable that he would attract covetousness and jealousy..."

Su He pondered for a moment and said, "No matter who did it, we must find out the truth. There must be some secret hidden here."

The two began searching through the ruins, hoping to find some clues.

They climbed over the collapsed walls and dug through the rubble, but found nothing.

The entire villa seemed to have been looted, with nothing of any use left behind.

Su He gradually felt frustrated, as he had originally thought he could find a way to repair the broken sword here.

Just as Su He was about to give up, his gaze was suddenly drawn to a corner.

Upon closer inspection, Su He discovered that the patterns were made of dust and iron filings.

The pattern presents a peculiar shape, resembling a broken sword.

"This...isn't this the shape of the Azure Sword? Why is it here?"

Su He's heart skipped a beat; he remembered the broken half of the sword he was carrying.

Could this pattern be hinting at the whereabouts of the broken sword?

Su He squatted down and carefully examined the broken sword fragments scattered on the ground.

These fragments are different from ordinary weapon fragments; they are engraved with strange patterns and exude an eerie aura.

A strange feeling rose in Su He's heart. He vaguely felt that these broken sword fragments might be related to the broken sword in his hand.

"Zixia, look at these patterns, aren't they special?"

Zixia leaned closer and carefully examined the patterns.

Gradually, her expression became serious.

"You're right, these patterns give off a very ominous feeling."

They seem to contain some kind of evil power…

Su He felt the same way.

These broken sword fragments are no ordinary objects.

"Could it be something left behind when the Lanbi Sword was destroyed?"

Zixia shook her head and said, "I can't say for sure. But judging from the number of these fragments, the Lanbi Sword was probably not just cut into two pieces..."

Su He remembered the words of the Lonely Moon Elder.

Back then, the Lanbi Sword caused a bloodbath in the martial arts world, and countless heroes lost their lives because of it.

Could these broken sword fragments be remnants of that catastrophe?

Just as the two were deep in thought, a cold wind suddenly blew by, stirring up dust from the ground.

Those broken sword fragments trembled slightly in the wind, making a crisp "clinking" sound.

Su He and Zi Xia were both startled, feeling a chilling aura.

"Watch out! It's not safe here..."

As she spoke, Zixia's hand was already on the long sword at her waist.

Su He also sensed that strange aura.

This Sword Forging Manor is far more complex than it appears on the surface.

Just then, a dark figure suddenly darted out from the ruins and pounced straight at Suhe and Zixia.

"Watch out!"

Su He pulled Zixia behind him and drew his longsword to meet the approaching shadow.

With a clang, Su He's longsword clashed with the weapon of the shadowy figure, sparks flying everywhere.

By the light of the clashing weapons, Su He could see the face of the newcomer.

It was a masked man dressed in black, agile and ruthless, clearly a master.

"Who are you? Why did you ambush us?"

Su He asked in a deep voice, while carefully dealing with the opponent's attacks.

The man in black did not answer, but instead snorted coldly, his moves becoming even more ferocious.

His weapon was a jet-black longsword, with peculiar patterns engraved on its blade, just like the broken sword fragments on the ground.

Su He, the man in black, is probably related to Lan Bijian.

"Zixia, watch out for his sword!"

Su He shouted a reminder, while simultaneously channeling all his inner energy, preparing to fight his opponent.

Zixia also drew her longsword and fought alongside Suhe.

The two worked together seamlessly, combining offense and defense effectively, gradually forcing the man in black into a disadvantageous position.

Seeing that things were going badly, the man in black suddenly let out a long howl, leaped backward, and disappeared into the ruins.

Suhe and Zixia gave chase, but the man in black was too strange in his movements and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Damn it, he got away!"

Suhe was somewhat annoyed.

Zixia frowned and said, "The appearance of this man in black is probably not accidental. His goal is likely also the Lan Bi Sword."

Suhe agreed.

"It seems we need to find Lan Bijian's whereabouts as soon as possible, otherwise more trouble may come knocking."

Zixia pondered for a moment and said, "Let's search this place again carefully and see if we can find more clues. Those broken sword fragments might give us some inspiration."

Suhe and Zixia searched the Sword Forging Manor for a long time, hoping to find the whereabouts of the swordsmith.

But no matter which room they entered, they only saw dilapidated furnishings and dust all over the floor.

All the signs indicate that the owner of this place has been gone for a long time and may never return.

"It seems we're a step too late."

Su He's intuition told him that things were not that simple.

"No, I think there are still secrets we haven't discovered here."

Zixia also began to carefully examine her surroundings, trying to find some unusual traces.

The two searched the dilapidated room for a long time, but found nothing.

Just as they were about to give up and leave this sad place, Suhe's gaze was suddenly drawn to a corner.

There seemed to be a hidden compartment in the wall there.

Su He walked closer and saw that the edge of the hidden compartment was engraved with some peculiar patterns.

The lines meandered and twisted, forming a complex pattern that seemed to contain some profound meaning.

"This pattern... seems familiar..."

Su He also felt that the pattern looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it before.

His gaze fell on the broken sword at his waist.

Su He's pupils suddenly contracted as he realized a startling fact.

The patterns on the wall are exactly the same as those on the broken sword fragments!

"Zixia, look!"

Su He said excitedly, taking out the broken sword and placing it next to the hidden compartment.

Zixia took a closer look and immediately gasped.

The patterns on the broken sword perfectly matched the patterns on the wall, as if they were made for each other.

Su He was overjoyed. He had a feeling that there must be a major secret hidden behind this secret compartment.

"Let's open it and take a look."

As Su He spoke, he reached out to fiddle with the mechanism of the hidden compartment.

But no matter how he tried, the hidden compartment remained unmoved, as if it were firmly sealed by some force.

Suhe could not open this hidden compartment by brute force alone.

At that moment, he had a sudden inspiration and aligned the broken sword fragments with the center of the hidden compartment.
