"Ha!" Yan Lingji smiled at her and did not answer directly, but asked instead, "What do you think?"
Shi Lan remained silent.
Obviously, they did try to draw the sword, but failed.
This is normal. When Gu Xun gave her the sword, he said that he had been looking for the sword owner for many years. Naturally, many people tried to pull out the sword in the process.
Shi Lan didn't take this kind of thing to heart - maybe many people have tried it, but in the end, he is the only one who succeeds.
The question she just said was just subconscious.
For Shi Lan, in the more than ten years of her life so far, she has come into contact with very few people outside Shushan. Gu Xun can be said to be the first one and the one who has the greatest influence on her.
The key is that she knows almost nothing about Gu Xun, so when she meets someone related to him, she naturally and subconsciously wants to ask more questions.
Yan Lingji asked Shi Lan again, "How long has it been since the sword was in your hand?"
"..." Shi Lan did not answer, but looked at Yan Lingji quietly.
The answer to this question is obviously not important information, and she does not need to keep it secret, but she just doesn't want to answer the other party.
The matter of the Ice Soul Sword has nothing to do with anyone else, even if the other person has a close relationship with Gu Xun!
Facing the taciturn Shi Lan, Yan Lingji didn't care when she couldn't get an answer. She smiled charmingly and teased, "She seems to be a shy and reserved little sister... Forget it, that's it for today. It's up to you.
For the sake of the sword in my hand, let’s let these Chu people go for the time being.”
"See you next time, little sister."
After saying that, Yan Lingji turned around and left. Wushuang Ghost, who raised his hands high, followed her and left together. The two of them slowly disappeared among the layers of trees.
In fact, she chose to leave happily and let Long Qie and Shao Yu go, not only because of the master of Shi Lan Ice Soul Sword.
Another very important reason is that she has to find a way to solve the problem of Wushuang Ghost.
She has seen Gu Xun's ice soul and cold energy more than once. The ice cubes condensed by this domineering power are difficult to melt with flames, even the fire of true energy that she used fire witchcraft to create is no exception.
And she was also worried that Wushuanggui's arm might have problems if she forced it to be roasted over fire.
Therefore, it is better to choose the most convenient, quick, effective and harmless method - that is, searching for ancient things.
He must have a way.
If she hadn't been in a hurry to deal with this, even if she spared Shao Yu and the others for the time being, she wouldn't have left in such a hurry. She would probably have had a good "play" with Shi Lan, the newly born sword master after so many years.
When Tianming and others saw that Yan Lingji really gave up and left, and her figure completely disappeared, they all felt relieved.
Seeing that the crisis was finally over, Long Qie hurriedly sat down next to a tree to rest with his strength, which had not yet recovered. Tianming ran to Shi Lan excitedly.
"That woman finally left!" He sighed casually at first, and then Tianming asked curiously, "Shi Lan, do you know her?"
Hearing Tianming's voice, Shi Lan recovered from the unconscious thoughts in her mind and shook her head, "I don't know."
"Ah?" Tianming scratched his head in surprise, "Then what was she talking about with you?"
"Nothing." Shi Lan didn't answer, Han Hu responded perfunctorily, put the ice soul back into the scabbard, and asked at the same time, "How is Shao Yu?"
Seeing that she didn't want to say anything, Tianming wisely didn't ask further questions and replied, "I guess I'm a little out of strength. It shouldn't be a big deal. I might need some training."
"It's okay." Shi Lan replied dully.
The two of them were talking and moving towards Shao Yu.
"Hey! Speaking of which, thanks to you Shi Lan, otherwise we might not all be safe and sound." Tianming danced and gestured excitedly, "That sword of yours... I don't know what it's called, but it's really powerful.
!"
"That big wild bear was so strong that even Shao Yu couldn't bear it, but you froze him so easily... It was simply too powerful!"
The uneducated Tianming could only use "awesome" one after another to repeatedly describe the power of the Ice Soul Sword.
Shi Lan, who knew that the effect was mainly caused by the power left by Gu Xun, was not complacent and responded realistically, "It's just a trick."
"Uh... that's amazing." Tian Ming scratched his head and didn't understand the trick, but he still followed Shi Lan's words and praised the other party.
Then Tianming changed the topic again and brought up the issue of swords. He said dejectedly, "I have always wanted a powerful famous sword, but I never had the chance... Of course it is good for non-attack purposes, but it feels worse when used as a sword.
Makes sense."
"Do you still remember the madman we met at night? He was the one you killed. I think his half-broken sword was okay, but after I showed it to the uncle, he confiscated it directly
, said that sword was dangerous."
"I remember what he said about the name of the sword... Shengxie. He said that the evil spirit was awe-inspiring. The sword was one inch long, and the evil spirit increased by three points. So the craftsman only made half of it and stopped."
"Although I repeatedly told him that I didn't think there was anything evil, he still didn't agree to leave the sword to me... Alas, why is it so difficult to find a sword?"
Tianming's lament made Shi Lan a little confused as to how to answer.
Is it difficult to get a good sword?
It's not difficult for her anyway - she fell out of thin air, and the difficulty level is zero.
Naturally, she wouldn't comment casually on things that she couldn't relate to, so she just took up what Sheng Xie Sword said:
"That broken sword...since your uncle said it's dangerous, it's better to listen to him."
"Uncle must be doing it for my own good. I'm not complaining about him, I'm just complaining, hehe!" Tianming nodded with a smile.
The two of them also walked back to Shao Yu at this time.
After a short rest, Shaoyu, who had not suffered any actual trauma, finally regained his breath.
Tianming and Shi Lan saw that he was really fine, and they were truly relieved.
"I'm telling you, kid, if you can't carry it, don't carry it. There's no shame in running away!" Tianming, who had relaxed, suddenly burst out of his previous pent-up dissatisfaction. Looking at Shaoyu, who was leaning against the tree, he complained.
.
Shao Yu, who had just recovered his breath, saw that he was standing and talking without pain in his back. He couldn't help but rolled his eyes and retorted, "You said it easily, if it weren't for Shi Lan... hiss... if it wasn't for Shi Lan
Having trapped Wushuanggui's hands, do you think we can escape safely so easily!?"
"Yan Lingji is good at controlling fire. In such a large mountain forest, as long as she sets a big fire, you won't be able to escape even if you ride a horse!"
Because he spoke too hard, Shao Yu once again affected the damaged muscles, and the pain made him take a breath.
Long Qie interrupted at this time and said, "Shao Yu, don't get excited. Your muscles are seriously injured, your bones and muscles are also injured, and your internal organs are probably also shocked. You will have to rest for a few days."
Long Qie's words caused Tianming to turn his attention to this mysterious man who had been fighting to death just now, "Shao Yu, who... is he?"
Shao Yu endured the pain of muscle tearing and stood up with support on the tree trunk, and introduced each other to both parties:
"Hey, so many things happened in a series, I didn't bother to introduce... Tianming, Shi Lan, this one is my playmate and brother since childhood - Long Qie."
"Long Qie, they are my good friends - Tianming and Shi Lan."
