Duan Lanruo walked in from the door and sat closest to Liu Yuan. It was understandable for her to sit next to him. Besides, she was asking about Liu Yuan’s identity, so it was reasonable for her to sit next to him.
“…”
Reasonable, my ass!
Liu Yuan could almost smell the faint fragrance, and his heart skipped a beat. He had given a warning, but Duan Lanruo still came over. What was she trying to do?
This was clearly deliberate teasing.
However, no one else present was surprised. Zuo Youhuai laughed gently, “This little Jiang Feng is not simple. In less than half a cup of tea’s time, he went straight to the Shu Dao and brought Geng Qi to the Sword Pavilion. It’s so shocking that my jaw dropped. Every generation has a talented person, just like the waves in the White Dragon River, each wave is stronger than the last. If one did not have extremely strong courage and indomitable spirit, one would not be able to do this.”
“The Shu Road trials have always been a trial of courage. Even the strongest swordsman will still feel fear in the face of life and death. However, today I have finally seen what is called a fearless heart…”
Zuo Youhuai was full of praise for Liu Yuan, and his tone revealed a strong intention to recruit him.
Liu Yuan smiled shyly. “You flatter me, Pavilion Master. I was just lucky and made my way up here without knowing anything. If not, how could I have come so quickly with such an exquisite and dangerous formation?”
Duan Lanruo, on the other hand, looked at him, who was pretending to be a shy newbie, and said with a smile, “Little Daoist Jiang, don’t belittle yourself. For hundreds of years, no one has ever broken through the Shu Road trial so quickly. Although you are not a member of the Sword Pavilion, you have already achieved a height that no one from the Sword Pavilion can reach.”
“As the City Lord of the City of Ten Thousand Swords,” she said, “I’ve never seen someone so suitable for the way of the sword in all these years. Whether it’s forging swords or using swords, your talent is quite good.”
Caught off guard, Duan Lanruo reached out and grabbed Liu Yuan’s hand.
“!”
F*ck, f*ck f*ck f*ck…
What was she trying to do in public?
Liu Yuan’s heart jolted. He then met Duan Lanruo’s gaze, which was filled with hidden mischief and slyness. As she pulled Liu Yuan’s hand, she flipped her hand and took out a token, placing it in Liu Yuan’s hand.
“This is my identity token. In the City of Ten Thousand Swords, seeing this token is like seeing me in person. It can be considered a greeting gift to the younger generation. In the future, in the City of Ten Thousand Swords, you can mobilize a quarter of the guards, and no one will dare to bully you.”
Oh, it’s a token. That’s fine.
Hey, hey, it’s not fine at all! Who would give an unfamiliar junior an identity token when they just met?
Liu Yuan was about to have a heart attack. He looked at the Sword Pavilion Master from the corner of his eye and found that the old man’s expression did not change. Instead, he was enlightened and even felt relieved.
What are you so happy about?
If you knew that the previous Pavilion Master’s wife already had an affair with me, would you still be happy?
He would probably not be happy.
The corner of Liu Yuan’s mouth twitched, and he pushed the token away, saying, “T-This is too precious…!”
Before Duan Lanruo could speak, Zuo Youhuai smiled and said, “Just accept it. You can’t refuse a gift from an elder. Master Duan thinks highly of you.”
Liu Yuan kept the token with a subtle expression and said, “Since that’s the case, it would be impolite to refuse.”
Zuo Youhuai asked again, “The value of a Skyring Sword is indeed huge, and its significance is extraordinary. If you exchange it for the right to use the Ten Thousand Sword Array once, it seems to be worth it. But now that the Tideviewing and Sword-listening event is approaching, will there be any oversight?”
Duan Lanruo said seriously, “The Xuanyin family is still the Xuanyin family after all. They wouldn’t resort to such despicable means. Moreover, I’ve already sent people to monitor their transformation process closely. There won’t be any slip-ups.”
Liu Yuan looked at the token in his hand, and a line of words suddenly appeared on it: ‘I miss you’.
“…”
The City Lord, who was talking about serious business while secretly passing on love words… It really felt like a young girl passing small notes in class.
The Sword Pavilion Master nodded. “I’ve always believed in your abilities and tactics. However, there’s one more thing to take note of. Now that we’ve heard that the demonic sect is taking action again, we must strengthen the defenses in the city. We can’t let anyone with unknown identities enter.”
Duan Lanruo nodded. “We’ve just checked those people with fake identities yesterday. However, they were all disciples of sects who were unwilling to reveal their identities. There were no members of the demonic sect.”
In other words, she found the flaw through a fake identity.
Liu Yuan instantly understood why Duan Lanruo had recognized him.
“That’s good.” Zuo Youhuai nodded, then asked about the current situation of the Singing Sword Meet.
They talked for a long time, and it was almost time.
Liu Yuan stood up and said, “Since I’ve already sent Geng Qi here, my mission is complete. I still have to go to the Singing Sword Platform to register myself. I have to leave first. Thank you for your hospitality, Pavilion Master.”
Duan Lanruo suddenly stood up as well. “Pavilion Master, I’m tired as well. Since it’s on the way, why don’t I go with Little Friend Jiang Feng?”
Zuo Youhuai waved his hand and naturally agreed. He even instructed, “Jiang Feng, you’re in too much of a limelight this time. I’m afraid that many people will notice you. You still need to be on guard, in case someone tries to use some underhanded means against you.”
Liu Yuan nodded in agreement, while Geng Qi stayed in the Sword Pavilion for the time being. He expressed that he would work hard to win the championship.
After leaving the room, they could still hear the sound of the river and the faint clattering of the chains on both sides of the river. The two of them, one in front and one behind, went down the mountain through a small path opened up by the Sword Pavilion on another cliff.
There were many disciples of the Sword Pavilion around them, so they kept their distance.
Duan Lanruo, who was walking in front, said, “After you’re done with your registration, I’ll send someone to look for you and bring you to me.”
“Hmm…” Liu Yuan replied, “Is Ye Cike in your residence now?”
Duan Lanruo stopped in her tracks, turned around, and said with a smile, “Naturally. She’s staying in my Lanfang Garden and is thinking of how to catch you.”
Liu Yuan could not help but laugh, “And then she asked you for help?”
There was really nothing more to say about this… He was walking into a trap.
Although Ye Cike did not know about this, Liu Yuan still felt that it was silly and cute when he thought about how she had earnestly asked Duan Lanruo to help activate the Ten Thousand Sword Array.
Duan Lanruo rolled her eyes at him and snorted. “You’re still laughing? Isn’t it because you provoked her? There’s also Shen Sifan, right? She chased you all the way from Taiqing Pavilion to the southeast corner of Central Plains. No wonder you came to me.”
Although she was complaining, there was a hint of pride in her tone… In front of this woman, Liu Yuan felt the most secure he had ever felt in a long time.
“Other than you, I can’t think of any other place to hide.” Liu Yuan chuckled.
Duan Lanruo thought, ‘I’ll be even happier when you come to me one day in the open instead of asking for my help to hide you… However, that day will come sooner or later.’
