In that carriage at the end of the street, the official was still writing his report. On this paper, he wrote, "According to the information from Xunyang City and the accumulated analysis, Su Li should have passed on three sword techniques to Chen Changsheng. One of them can help him quickly ignite his true essence. It possesses an enormous power. It had originally been surmised that he would use this technique. Unexpectedly, Zhou Ziheng's level was lacking and he was unable to force out this technique."
There was another official in the carriage who had similarly come from the Department for Purging Officials. Supplementing this report, he said, "It is possible that it has to do with Chen Changsheng's dagger being too sharp."
The official holding the brush fell silent, then said uncertainly, "But that sword clearly didn't give off any ripples of Qi. Is just sharpness enough?"
