Chapter 93: Sword Trial!
" That's right, so instead of going to the Cloud Knights' garrison, we'll send you directly to the Shackling Prison. All-inclusive, with heavily armed guards, absolutely safe."
He was calling her " big sister " just a moment ago.
Now he suddenly changed his tone.
Speaking these words with an air of course.
His expression also changed from innocent and confident to serious and earnest!
March 7th and Stelle both showed surprised expressions.
They were just teasing Yanqing.
They didn't expect Yanqing to have realized it long ago!
He just didn't say it in order to investigate Blade's whereabouts first!
The two exchanged an awkward glance.
It seems like they've become the clowns.
The mood in the comments section also changed!
...
" Yanqing is a bit arrogant, but he's still quite smart and vigilant."
" Jing Yuan taught him well!"
" He's been hiding it all along, Yanqing, you've got some tricks up your sleeve!"
" But speaking of which, is Yanqing confident in winning against Jingliu? She's his master's master after all."
...
Faced with Yanqing's exposure.
Jingliu still had a calm and breezy look.
" Little brother, you should have a reason for arresting someone."
" Suspicious behavior, hiding your head and tail, that alone is enough. You don't think I'm a child and easy to fool, do you?"
" Not to mention how a trapped traveler suddenly appeared at the sealed port. All the way here, I've seen you walk lightly and steadily, not the slightest bit like a blind person."
" As for swordsmanship, it's one thing to hear everything clearly with your ears, but you can even tell me the exact number of swords I'm controlling. This kind of knowledge, how can an ordinary person have it?"
" You're not blind at all, are you?"
But Jingliu replied, " I never said I couldn't see. You saw me with a black veil covering my eyes and assumed that."
" Um..."
This immediately left Yanqing speechless.
And Jingliu continued, " It's okay, little brother, I have no grudges with you, and I don't want to harm the Xianzhou."
" This black veil is proof that I don't want to be sentimental, fall into Mara-struck, and create more disasters."
On the deck of another ship.
Hearing these words, Jing Yuan was a little surprised.
He couldn't help but look at Jingliu beside him.
Her mental state and behavioral logic were so clear.
The characteristics of Mara-struck were almost invisible on the surface.
Could it be... she can really suppress her Mara-struck?
That Jingliu, who was once both a teacher and a friend, seemed to be back.
However.
This feeling was only fleeting.
Jing Yuan immediately suppressed those emotions.
These should all be just superficial phenomena.
Let's see what the subsequent plot says!
" I'm here just to catch someone, and it's just right to travel with you~."Jingliu continued.
" You're also... here for [ Blade ]?" Yanqing asked tentatively.
" [ Blade ], is that his current name? Abandoning the body for the blade, honing the heart with swords, he really knows how to pick a name."
" Take me to see him, little brother."
" You are not my opponent, so you are not [ Blade ]'s opponent either. With me accompanying you, you won't throw your life away in vain, little brother."
At this time.
Jing Yuan, Jingliu, and Dan Heng, who were watching the plot, looked at the door at the same time.
A hand was prying open the door between the deck and the cabin.
Then.
Blade appeared there blankly.
" Who called me?"
" No one called you, it's the plot in this game." Dan Heng replied.
" Oh."
Blade sat indifferently on the edge of the boat, as if all his emotions had been emptied.
" You want to watch too?" Jing Yuan asked.
" Yes."
" Oh."
Jing Yuan placed the Jade Abacus on the ground and activated the projection mode.
It was convenient for four people to watch together.
On the small bow of the boat.
Four people surrounded the glowing screen.
Quietly watching the plot.
People who didn't know what was going on would probably sigh and say—
How peaceful the years are!
...
" How can you know who will win before the sword is drawn? I advise you not to underestimate my sword."
Yanqing said to Jingliu.
Jingliu said, " I don't want to fight with the Cloud Knights, how about this— "
" Let's have a match, and use the abominations that are now all over the Luofu Xianzhou to test our swords. Let's see whose sword is faster and who slays more, how about it?"
" If you win. I will naturally accept my defeat, obediently surrender, go to the Shackling Prison to be tried, and be at your disposal."
" But if I win, you will share Blade's whereabouts with me. How about it?"
Yanqing shook his head: " The Cloud Knights don't trade official duties, and besides, you can't win."
" I like your confidence. But [ How can you know who will win before the sword is drawn ], right?"
Seeing this scene.
Blade actually spoke again: " This kid has really chosen the wrong opponent."
" I remember, you seemed to have never lost when you were the Sword Champion?"
" It seems that you are in good condition now, you can actually remember some things from before." Jingliu said to Blade.
" Hearing the dialogue in this game, I remembered some things in my mind."
Jing Yuan smiled slightly: " Yingxing... no, Blade. I'm a little unaccustomed to you being so calm all of a sudden."
" Why don't you fight him again?"
Dan Heng:"..."
Blade ignored Jing Yuan.
He also seemed to have lost interest in Dan Heng for the time being.
His attention was focused on the plot in front of him.
Compared to the peaceful atmosphere here.
The situation on the other ship was completely different!
Yanqing had already stood up from his seat excitedly!
" Finally, are they going to compete!?"
" If it's this kind of method of testing swords by comparing speed with abominations, I shouldn't lose!"
" After all, Jingliu has disappeared for so many years; she should have been looking for ways to suppress Mara-struck, and she's also old, she's definitely not at her peak."
" And I have been working hard in recent years, and I haven't neglected theory and practice."
" My chances of winning should be higher, right?"
" No, let's be conservative, fifty-fifty."
Yanqing clenched his fists.
Although he wasn't going to compete himself.
But he had obviously completely immersed himself in it.
He couldn't wait to drill into the screen and complete this trial for himself!
Seeing him so fired up, March 7th comforted him: " Relax, little brother Yanqing, Stelle and I admit that we underestimated you before."
" Come on! Win against this Jingliu!"
" We fully support you!"
" Thank you, March."
Yanqing nodded.
In the live broadcast room.
Guinaifen and the viewers also seriously analyzed and predicted.
Guinaifen said: " I think Jingliu should still be better! No matter what her physical condition is now, she is, after all, the former [ Sword Champion ]. Yanqing is still too young, and there is still a distance to become a [ Sword Champion ]."
The comments responded: " The Jingliu in [ A Flash ] is completely like a queen! But her current temperament seems to have converged a lot; maybe she is really not at her peak."
" Jingliu looks so thin and weak, is she really that strong? Is there a bit of exaggeration in that short film?"
" Maybe fifty-fifty! After all, there is an old saying in Xianzhou: fists fear the young and strong. Sword testing should be about the same."
" The former Sword Champion and the future Sword Champion, this sword test must be evenly matched!"
" Good, good, good! We can see a wonderful competition!"
