Master Fu's eyebrows shot up in surprise, his gaze flickering to the Dreadblade. "Influencing you?" he echoed, his voice tinged with disbelief.
Wovi fluttered down from its perch, landing lightly on Wuxie's shoulder. "You mean like how I influence you to get more snacks?" it joked, trying to lighten the tension.
Ignoring Wovi's attempt at humor, Wuxie nodded, his heart pounding with excitement and trepidation. "Yes, Master Fu. I can feel it. It's like the sword is... awakening something within me, unlocking hidden knowledge and abilities."
"I believe it chose me for a reason. It's not just a weapon; it's a key to unlocking my true potential."
Master Fu's expression grew serious. "If what you say is true, Wuxie, then you must be cautious. Such power can be both a gift and a curse. You need to understand its origins and its purpose."
