Ning Yujing rested her jade hands on Han Ye’s shoulders, bringing herself closer to him. She spoke softly, “This man, starting from a week ago, has been meeting with this senior sister. He’s said to be the Senior Brother of the Inner Sect of Ziwei Peak, a man so gentle that he brings to mind spring winds. He’s about to break through to the Golden Core realm and is the pride of Ziwei Peak.”
Han Ye felt uncomfortable watching Chu Xianyu meeting secretly with Liu Chengfeng. He asked coldly, “How did you find out about their secret meeting here?”
“How did I find out?”
Ning Yujing lowered her eyes, answering nonchalantly: “I was returning borrowed books to the Book Collection Pavilion at Sea of Books Peak last night, and saw them on the way. Since this senior sister and senior brothers are so close, it occurred to me to inform you, senior brother.”
Han Ye couldn’t see Chu Xianyu’s expression under her veil from this distance. He turned his head away and said coldly, “Let’s go. There’s no point in watching this. No one can reach Chu Xianzi’s heights, she’s an extraordinary lady. Even Liu Chengfeng is but a single grain of sand in a vast ocean, like comparing a star to the bright moon.”
Watching his retreating figure, Ning Yujing chuckled inwardly.
I have finally found your weakness.
With a flick of her sleeve, the pair in the distance suddenly halted their conversation and looked towards Ning Yujing.
Taking a leap, they reached her side and bowed reverently:
“Greetings, Saintess.”
Their faces gradually morphed into unfamiliar ones. Both “Chu Xianyu” and “Liu Chengfeng” were replaced by unfamiliar faces.
Ning Yujing seemed delighted, revealing an amiable smile:
“You both performed well. You will be greatly rewarded when we return.”
The female who had impersonated Chu Xianyu removed her veil and asked: “Is this man worth all the trouble you’re going through for this setup, Saintess?” All traces of humor vanished from Ning Yujing’s face as she replied seriously: “After a year of investigating, I have narrowed down the location of the Demon Chart to one of the small squads that went to Hongzhou Prefecture initially. I have examined the ten disciples one by one using the Mind-Confusing Incense. It’s not with them. Only Han Ye, Wang Da Niu, and Lin Shihuang are left.” “This Han Ye is rather strange, my Mind-Confusing Incense doesn’t affect him. He is the most suspicious, naturally he needs to be closely monitored.”
“The Saintess is wise!”
Both of her subordinates gave their wholehearted agreement.
In the past year, not only has the Saintess gathered comprehensive information on the Dragon Sparrow Sect, she has also clearly recorded the itineraries of the suspects every month.
This Han Ye frequents Ziwei Peak every month, which led them to investigate and find out that he was looking for a woman named Chu Xianyu.
They infiltrated Ziwei Peak and discovered an interesting phenomenon.
The sword felt like a broad, heavy blade.
Swift and fierce, it exuded an overwhelming vigor.
He did not react to his opponent, instead he raised his sword-holding hand to fend off the blow from behind.
“Ding!”
The blow was parried perfectly, accurately fending off an incoming strike from behind by Liu Chengfeng.
The next moment, two streaks of sword light intersected, and the speed of the exchange was so fast that the viewers from the stage below could hardly see the crosses and parries, only hearing an endless stream of clangs.
After exchanging more than a dozen moves, Liu Chengfeng quickly retreated, marked by a look of concern. He’d noticed something off.
This guy’s swordsmanship has reached a transformative level, it’s not as simple as being proficient. How is that possible? Isn’t he a body cultivator?
He becomes stronger the more he battles. That’s strange.
The spectators below the stage were astounded as well, especially Liu Lingqi, who was well-versed in swordsmanship. Recognizing Han Ye’s swordsmanship, her eyes lit up and she exclaimed:
“Impressive swordsmanship! Although it lacks the standard form, the Sword Intent is outstanding. The complexity is simplified, there’s no drag or delay and every strike is essential. It’s like a flowing river.”
“Good, good, good. It seems that we both need to reveal our true abilities today.”
Liu Chengfeng made a sword gesture with one hand while an ancient-looking, green flying sword flew out of his Storage Ring with the other. Holding two swords – one green and one purple, his face was serious.
Seeing him wielding two swords, the Inner Sect disciples below the stage expressed their astonishment:
“What? Liu Chengfeng is actually a dual-sword cultivator?”
“Controlling two Flying Swords at the same time, isn’t that too hard?”
“It appears that Senior Brother Liu Chengfeng has been hiding his strength.”
“Attribute acquired: Linglong Sword Heart +1”
“Attribute acquired: Linglong Sword Heart +1”
“Linglong Sword Heart (Purple): You can control multiple Flying Swords simultaneously, and more swords mean a higher efficiency”
Han Ye, however, remained composed, brandishing his sword producing a freezing and piercing sword light, demonstrating no fear whatsoever.
