NOVEL NEXT Chapter 105: Damn kid, spit out the Divine Sword Fruit
```
"Why won't this pillar of light disappear?"
Chu Xin lay on a tree branch, one hand grasping the limb, the other propping up her delicate little chin, her round, wide eyes filled with longing as she stared at the Divine Sword Fruit within arm's reach, constantly swallowing saliva.
The delicious fruit was right before her eyes, yet she could only look but not eat—it was truly agonizing.
Moreover, many baddies were coming to snatch the fruit, and she was growing a bit impatient.
She looked down at the Divine Sword Pond below and noted that the water level was still falling slowly. She couldn't help but sigh softly, "It's not ripe yet."
Grandpa had said that they must wait until the big tree stopped absorbing water from the pond for the fruit to ripen. They still had to wait.
Perhaps sensing Chu Xin's inner voice, the two beams of Sword Qi that shot up to the heavens finally dissipated, and the Divine Sword Tree also ceased to absorb the pond's water. The Divine Sword Fruit stood erect on the branch, looking like a sharp little sword pointing straight at the sky.
An overwhelmingly immense Sword Intent spread from the Divine Sword Fruit, shaking one's soul.
"The Divine Sword Fruit has matured, everyone charge!"
"While the three young Sword Saints are fighting, let's grab the Divine Sword Fruit."
"Kill those two brats and snatch the Divine Sword Fruit."
In a certain area around the Divine Sword Pond, hidden until now, Qin Tian and his two companions shouted loudly.
The hesitating crowd of Heavenly Prides, hearing this, suddenly had their eyes light up.
At present, the three young Sword Saints were in a chaotic battle, and there were only two toddlers that looked about three years old on the Divine Sword Tree. It was the perfect opportunity to seize the Divine Sword Fruit.
In an instant, countless Heavenly Prides dashed towards the Divine Sword Tree, unleashing their most brutal techniques without any mercy, and attacked the toddlers on the tree.
They had no intention of respecting the old or cherishing the young. Anyone who stood in their way of obtaining the Divine Sword Fruit would be killed if they could be overpowered.
The overwhelming assaults rained down upon the siblings.
"Rise!"
Chu Xin's childish voice cried out sweetly as she casually tossed a crystal-clear Array Stone.
Hum!
The Array Stone shimmered with light, lines spreading through the air, quickly forming a small protective Array that enveloped Chu Xin.
Chu Chen did the same on the other side.
Array Stones created Arrays faster and more conveniently than those made with an Array Base, but naturally, they were not as powerful or wide-ranging.
However, it was enough to hold off the multitude of Heavenly Prides for a moment.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The attacks from the Heavenly Prides fell upon the barrier of the Array, causing thunderous booms. The barrier vibrated as if it would shatter at any second, yet it stubbornly held on without breaking.
"I can eat the fruit now."
Chu Xin cheered, her tiny body crawling forward a bit as she stretched her neck and lifted her small head to take a bite of the Divine Sword Fruit.
The fruit, slightly longer than her entire palm, instantly had a chunk bitten out of it.
"Mmm! This fruit is too delicious."
Chu Xin smacked her lips twice, swallowed, and her eyes immediately sparkled with delight.
Upon entering her mouth, the juice from the fruit burst forth, filling her entire mouth with a sweet and delectable flavor.
Embedded in that juice was a powerful Sword Intent that exploded and surged deep into her soul.
This Sword Intent was even more potent than that contained in the Rune Characters she had encountered earlier, yet it was more gentle.
The Sword Intent contained in the Rune Characters was meant to deter the petty and small, naturally possessing a strong offensive nature.
On the other hand, the Divine Sword Fruit was meant to be consumed, with Sword Intent that was crafted to help cultivators comprehend Sword Intent and forge a Sword Body, so comparatively speaking, the offensive nature wasn't as intense.
Of course, that was in the context of Chu Xin and Chu Chen. If someone else consumed it as they did, they too would be torn to pieces by the Sword Intent within the Divine Sword Fruit.
Rawr!
```
The sweet taste made Chu Xin and Chu Chen utterly unable to stop. They took one bite after another, their round, wide eyes squinting into little crescents.
"Damn it, are the dragon and phoenix babes really eating it like that?"
The Heavenly Prides surrounding the Array Stone Barrier were all stunned by the sight.
That was the Divine Sword Fruit, containing supreme Sword Intent, a Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure that could forge a Sword Body. If they were to get their hands on it, they would find a safe place to slowly refine it; who would dare to eat it directly like these dragon and phoenix babes?
They even saw the babe wearing the dragon-shaped mask break off a piece and throw it to the two-headed piglet lying on the tree branch.
It was simply a waste of Heaven's gifts.
The Heavenly Prides' eyelids twitched in frustration, their teeth almost grinding in anger. Stay updated through empire
But the Array Stone Barrier thrown by the dragon and phoenix babes was too strong on defense. Despite their combined effort, they couldn't break it for a while, and could only watch, wide-eyed, as the dragon and phoenix babes munched on the Divine Sword Fruits atop the Divine Sword Tree.
Even the Artifact Spirit elder watching from the Artifact Spirit Space couldn't help but have his eyelids twitch. These two brats really knew how to incite hatred. With this move, they successfully became the common enemy of all the Heavenly Prides.
"Damned little brats, spit out the Divine Sword Fruits!"
Meanwhile, Hua Wuqing, who had finally disengaged from combat, saw that the two Divine Sword Fruits were about to be finished by the dragon and phoenix babes, and immediately flew into a rage. The terrifying Heartless Sword Energy, carrying endless murderous intent, poured forth, striking the Array Stone Barrier closest to him.
Pfft!
The already shaky Array Stone Barrier shattered instantly, and the remaining Heartless Sword Energy streamed in, targeting Chu Xin with a fierce assault.
"Little brat, you're courting death."
At the same moment, Lang Tianya let out a wolf howl. The terrifying Sky Wolf Sword Energy smashed through the Array Stone Barrier and shot toward Chu Chen.
"The dragon and phoenix babes are done for."
Upon seeing this, the Heavenly Prides heaved a slight sigh.
How could dragon and phoenix babes, who appeared to be no more than three years old, withstand the furious strike of a young Sword Saint?
The expression hidden beneath Long Shaoyu's mask was also incredibly dark, his gaze toward Chu Xin and Chu Chen filled with murderous intent.
Ai Chirou's cultivation was of the Sword Dao, so him eating the Divine Sword Fruit was somewhat acceptable, but Ai Kaorou practiced the Sword Dao—what business did he have eating a Divine Sword Fruit? Wasn't that a waste?
However, this murderous intent was quickly suppressed by him. He remained suspended in mid-air, neither making a move nor stopping Lang Tianya and Hua Wuqing.
"Young master, those two brats..."
The youth with the square face and the bow-wielding youth arrived swiftly, angrily speaking out.
But before they could finish, Long Shaoyu waved his hand to interrupt them.
Both became silent immediately, turning their heads to glare fiercely at the Divine Sword Tree, where the two brats were about to be struck by the attacks from the two young Sword Saints.
Chirp!
The two-headed piglet let out a dragon-like chirp, leaping from the branch, hid behind the Divine Sword Tree, peeking out with its little pig heads.
Under the watchful eyes of all, Chu Xin and Chu Chen calmly threw out a stack of Talismans.
"My goodness, where did these dragon and phoenix babes come from? They're tossing out stacks of Talismans like nothing?"
All the Heavenly Prides stared dumbfounded at the scene.
Normal cultivators used Talismans one by one, none having ever seen anyone treat Talismans like waste, throwing out a whole stack at a time. That was just too extravagant.
Hum!
The Talismans flickered and transformed into multiple Protective Shields, encasing the two of them within.
Boom!
The Heartless Sword Energy and the Sky Wolf Sword Energy each hit the Protective Shields with a thunderous crash.
The fearsome shockwaves spread out, instantly tearing apart several of the nearby Heavenly Prides, causing the rest to quickly back away.
Yet even with such terrifying attacks, they couldn't immediately destroy the Talisman-formed Protective Shields.
Chu Xin and Chu Chen, under the gritted teeth stares of the Heavenly Prides, calmly bit off the last of the Divine Sword Fruit, leaving only a stem and two sword-shaped leaves fluttering chaotically in the wind.
