“…”

The situation was very awkward.

Yan Guanlin’s face turned from red to white to green and then to black, like a color palette, as he looked at Liu Yuan and the woman in front of him.

The voices behind him fell silent, as if they were mocking him.

He looked at the sword in his hand, both his hands trembling.

Lu Yu was still waving his hand and saying hello, “Jiang Feng! Did you send that mortal to the Sword Pavilion?”

“Yes.” Liu Yuan nodded and said, “The Pavilion Master has allowed him to join this Tideviewing and Sword-listening event. He even admires him a lot.”

Lu Yu sighed. “That’s really impressive. A mortal wants to compete with a swordsmith from the Sword Pavilion… Oh, yes, why did you choose to take the Shu Road to the Sword Pavilion?”

Liu Yuan snorted and twitched his mouth. “Because it’s convenient?”

Wang Rong, who was walking over. “…”

Yan Guanlin, “…”

What did he say!?

How is this convenient?!

In the past few years, there were only less than three successive disciples in the Sword Pavilion who were at least in the Core Formation stage who passed the trial of Shu Road. You’re only in the Foundation Eestablishment stage and you’re already in it!

However, according to the ratio of walking up for half a cup of tea’s time and walking down for one cup of tea’s time, it seemed that it was indeed more convenient to go up from Shu Road?

Could this guy just do whatever he wanted?

Wei Feiyan of the Mythical Flame Sect, who had always been serious and cold, was also greatly moved. He thought to himself that he would definitely be in the Singing Sword Meet this time. There was no hope for him to get into the top 10, but it would not be a problem for him to get into the top 20 with such courage and movement techniques.

At this time, Wang Rong suddenly noticed the woman who had been walking in front. She had deliberately suppressed her presence, but in fact, she was still as beautiful and moving as before. The people around her had already begun to whisper, guessing who this person was.

Many low-level Immortal cultivators were also not qualified to meet the City Lord of the City of Ten Thousand Swords, and the City Lord did not often come out for activities. In the past several hundred years, her reputation had faded, and thus, not many people knew her.

As a disciple of the Sword Pavilion, Wang Rong could not help but recognize this 9-star swordsman. His expression immediately changed and he stepped forward to pay his respects. “The 49th furnace disciple from the Sword Pavilion pays his respects to Master Duan!”

The Sword Pavilion was passed down from master to disciple, and each sword-casting furnace was passed down from generation to generation. Each of them had their own forging method. There were 72 peaks on Dragon Gate mountain, and the lower the sword furnace was, the higher the star-level sword forger who used it.

However, most of them were gradually abandoned during the inheritance, and they were gradually reset…And just like that, hundreds of years have passed since the forging of swords on the cliff.

The order of the sword-casting furnace did not represent one’s strength, but it represented one’s inheritance. Therefore, most disciples of the Sword Pavilion would introduce themselves like this.

However, when Wang Rong addressed her as ‘Master Duan’, it instantly reminded everyone of the only 9-star female swordsmith with the surname Duan…

The City Lord of the City of Ten Thousand Swords!

The crowd was in an uproar.

More and more people recognized Duan Lanruo’s existence and saluted her. Duan Lanruo acknowledged her and smiled indifferently. “No need to be so polite. I just brought Jiang Feng down on the way. You can continue with the registration.”

After he finished speaking, she disappeared, leaving behind a group of people with shocked faces.

What was going on with this Jiang Feng? Even the City Lord had appeared, saying that it was on the way, but how many people could be escorted personally by the City Lord of the City of Ten Thousand Swords?

Wasn’t this too strong? First, he passed the Shu Road in half a cup of tea’s time, and then he was sent off by the City Lord. What kind of treatment and background was this?

Many people began to pay attention to this person called Jiang Feng, secretly keeping an eye on him.

Yan Guanlin’s focus was not on this, but on the fact that he had actually made a vicious oath in front of the City Lord that he would eat this sword.

Was it too late to regret now?

It really was too late.

So was he really going to eat this sword? If he did not eat it, then his dignity and credibility would be swept to the ground.

Pa!

Lu Yu, who was standing beside him, patted his shoulder hard and said, “Are you going to eat your sword?”

“…”

I don’t want to eat it!

Who the f*ck wants to eat a sword? Why is this person mentioning it again? Get lost!

Yan Guanlin was in despair.

He looked at Liu Yuan expectantly, hoping that he could give him a way out.

Liu Yuan smiled at him. “Just remember that you owe me a sword… As for eating a sword, there’s no need for that. Eating a sword in front of the Sword Pavilion is too much.”

Yan Guanlin heaved a sigh of relief, but he was also secretly upset that he had already lost before the competition even started.

Liu Yuan greeted Ling Yu and found that she had already finished her registration. Under Wang Rong’s lead, he went to the registration area of the Singing Sword Platform and recorded his file. Then, he took a wooden token as a serial number and randomly selected it during the competition.

Signing up was naturally a simple matter, not to mention that many things had happened to Liu Yuan just now.

Wang Rong wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and asked embarrassedly, “Fellow Daoist Jiang Feng, why is Master Duan here?”

Liu Yuan shook his head. “How would I know? It should be related to the people from the Xuanyin family from a few days ago… Since she didn’t hide it, then I’ll be frank. The Skyring Sword has already returned to the Sword Pavilion. Coincidentally, I was sending Geng Qi up, so the City Lord came down with me.”

“Doesn’t this mean that the relationship between the Xuanyin family and the Sword Pavilion will be eased?” Wang Rong’s eyes widened.

“How would I know?” Liu Yuan kept the wooden token in his sleeve and said, “Since the registration is done, then Steward Wang, we will return to the inn first.”

“Alright, alright…” Wang Rong muttered, “We don’t have to worry about this kind of thing.”

Liu Yuan and Ling Yu walked back to the inn together. Yan Guanlin’s expression changed several times, but he still could not believe it. How could a Foundation Establishment cultivator pass through the Shu Road in half a cup of tea’s time?

And not only did he come down, but he was also personally led down by the City Lord of the City of Ten Thousand Swords.

“How did he pass the Shu Road?” Yan Guanlin asked Wang Rong unwillingly.

Wang Rong recalled it and still felt it was extremely terrifying. He shook his head and said, “He just passed like that… I didn’t even have time to react. I was just about to get someone to get him down from Shu Road when he passed through it already.”

Yan Guanlin’s expression became even more serious. He looked at the cliff next to him and then at his sword. Finally, he gritted his teeth and suddenly flicked his sleeves and walked to the side.

“Hey, what are you going to do there? Don’t!”

“Ah!”

Wang Rong could not bear to look at the falling teenager and sent someone to catch him. He sighed. “The first stage of Shu Road is the Dual Yin Sword Formation. Its changes are strange. How can one react to it without trying it?”

With the exception of Jiang Feng.

Yan Guanlin’s face was full of doubt, and his eyes were listless. The Shu Road… How could it be passed so quickly?

…

Cui Ting jumped down from the flying sword and looked at the quiet and elegant residence in front of him. The words ‘Qingping Residence’ were written on it. It was the residence of the more important people in the city and those with higher cultivation.

Naturally, Shen Sifan was there as well.

After he informed them of his identity, he went on his way without any hindrances, but the people in charge could not help but look at him with concern and dissuasion.

After all, everyone knew that he had just fought the Green Lotus Swordsman not long ago, and the battle was quite fierce.

However, Cui Ting could not allow his Sword Heart to be damaged!

He needed to regain his courage!

“Whew…”

Cui Ting closed his eyes. It was not easy to escape from that terrifying sword. Looking at the courtyard in front of him, he exhaled and said, “Cui Ting from the Heart Sword Sect is here to challenge the Green Lotus Swordsman!

The woman who was meditating in the room suddenly opened her eyes.
