Flopping to A. Take the sword BUT only to present it back to Shun infront of everyone and troll Nie.

I don't think we have any control over Jing's motivations for taking the sword.

Eh, fine. We can play along. We have 3 more limbs.

Furthermore, I think Shun is giving giving it to us. As in, here, use it for a while. We just kinda don't need it at all.

It's simpler to troll Nie if it's the Emperor himself going "Glad you came all this way and I appreciate the thought, but the real sword has always been with me. I would have thought you of all people wouldn't have been fooled by a fake... oh well, we all make mistakes" in front of the entire court.

We'll see what will you say when we do need it and dont have it +M why not take it when there are no strings attached? And we might rip Nuwa a nuwa one :p

He is lending it to us with the reasoning that it might help us since we don't have an arm. :M

Either he is in the troll mood, or he has something stupid planned again. We can always do more stupid.

Because this:

And no way am I getting anywhere close to our psycho ex.

You guys picked the 'let's all do it as one' choice so deciding to take the real Xuanyuan Sword only to troll with it yourself is going to make you look like a huge fucking ass to everyone. Not just Huashan and their flunkies. Take it if you feel you might need it, not because you just want Jing to show off that he is the cleverest little troll ever. He might be, but it's counterproductive, really.

Clearly treave wants to troll us from the right choice-A. We dont need to use it to troll.
We might NEED it if we cross paths with any other crazy immortal bitch.

So if we take the sword, the only reason would be personal use? Is that it?

Ok. Thought as much. Don't need it then.

Because its better to leave yourself powerless in a bad situation and do POLITICS instead.
Or give the sword to Shun and stay out of that mire altogether, busying ourselves with recovery and training. Ah well.
And what treave said. Seriously, we either keep it in secret or give it to Shun. What happened here isn't going public, ever.
This will be covered in the next update, but whatever just happened is going to remain as secret as possible.
We might NEED it if we cross paths with any other crazy immortal bitch.
Except it's magic doesn't work for us since we're not the Emperor.

Given that you decided to come as the representative of Emei, and you spoke in their stead about how we should all be friends and present the sword together, subsequently getting open support from the other orthodox sects including Wudang and Taishan...

I'm just pointing out beforehand that finding out about the real sword, keeping it for yourself, and then using it just to solely embarrass Nie Wuxing instead of doing what you called for so loudly (sharing in the glory together, regardless of whether you hate each others' guts) is a dick move not too far removed from what you did at the Qingcheng Wedding. Wudang and Emei are not going to appreciate that, even if they dislike him.

Well, I suppose the Son of Heaven can not make it public that he is currently at war with the same powers that allegedly grant him the right to rule.

where was it told it works like that?
In the update? When Shun deflected the blasts of energy? When the immortal herself was surprised he could utilize its powers?

The Xuanyuan is the sword of an Emperor, which is probably why it feels so awkward and ordinary in our hands. Chi You is also kinda pissed at it, so I just don't think it a good fit.
And I don't intend to look for any more celestials, we have more important shit to worry about.

it doesnt state so explixitly. as I said it might be tolkienesque and she was just surprised he did ANYTHING to save himself

Also its not Chi You per se. Its his angsty part that is pissed off at everyone anyway.

Also It might lead to unlocking the potential that this possesion gives us.

What I'm saying is this: duck your sword, I want a steampunk metal prosthetic with tentacles instead.

Well..We could use the sword as building good PR with orthodox sects as in
"Look guys you have the wrong sword, but don't worry because I have real one. We can keep this little incident as secret so nobody has to embrass themself because we are buddies despite our diffrences...Right?"

We could always test what that sword is capable of once we get used to our missing arm or give it to Yifang for safekeep until we present it to empire.

Oh yeah, tell us this after we got possessed by a demon for NOT choosing the troll option.

Yes, you could do this and gain +respect points from everyone, including Huashan, for it.

Trolling has its time and place. Shitting is a healthy activity but you don't do it on your plate before dinner. :troll:
