Chapter 152 Cai Yu Can’T Be Inelegant
Chapter 152: Cai Yu Cannot Be Ungraceful
Long Yan almost burst into tears, but she held back the sourness in her nose and forced a shallow smile. She said, "It's not really a setback or a blow, just a realization about certain people and things. It should be considered as growth."
With such a classic emo statement, how could Zhang Chi not be moved by her?
"If the price of growth is extinguishing the flame of passion and justice in my heart, then I would rather remain forever young and foolish."
"You're still young."
Long Yan smiled, feeling like she was treating Zhang Chi as her little brother.
Her little brother was full of youthful vigor and naivety, which made her feel particularly mature in comparison.
Although she was forcing a smile, at least she managed to do it.
"Alright, I know you're worried about me, but there's really no need. Those people can only annoy me a little. If they push me too far, I'll tear down their homes."
Long Yan thought fiercely, wanting to show these people what a human-shaped tyrannosaurus rex was like.
She had never liked bullying, but she wasn't stupid either. When she cursed at people, she didn't feel anything, and after cursing, she could slowly understand that these people didn't fight back or talk back because she had a good father.
It felt pretty good to bully others.
Zhang Chi just smiled and said, "If you're not happy at the Dragon Transformation Palace, you can come to the Sword Sect anytime. The Sword Sect may not be as powerful as the Dragon Transformation Palace, but there are many like-minded brothers and sisters here, and everyone is friendly and harmonious."
"I know that."
Long Yan had also heard some things about the Sword Sect and was quite shocked that they still had so many disciples. But after seeing the character and temperament of the people in the Sword Sect, she wasn't surprised anymore.
In general, the atmosphere in small places was like this. Although they were poor, they hadn't lost their integrity.
Unlike the upper-level sects, where strength was everything and all they talked about was interests.
Is it really just about interests in a Daoist's lifetime?
She was different, as if she had never experienced the hardships of the mortal world.
"When I have nothing to do in the future, I will come to the Sword Sect as a guest."
Zhang Chi shook his head and said, "My intention is not just to invite you as a guest, but to say that if one day you're not happy outside, you can come and settle down at the Sword Sect. The doors of the Sword Sect will always be open for you."
"Haha, you really dare to say that."
Zhang Chi's sincerity amused Long Yan. The Sword Sect had so few resources and manpower, it couldn't even compare to a small sect, yet he dared to extend such an invitation to her.
Long Yan didn't feel humiliated, but instead felt Zhang Chi's genuine intentions.
"Alright, it's settled then. If I really can't make it outside, I'll come to Little Warehouse Mountain and seek refuge with you."
"You saying that makes me look forward to that day, but I hope that day never comes. I hope you don't encounter any unhappiness outside and don't let anyone bully you."
Long Yan blinked her eyes, her nose feeling a bit sour.
Fortunately, Zhang Chi raised his wine glass again, and Long Yan wiped her eyes with her sleeve while covering her face.
The rest of the time was filled with toasts and laughter. They drank to their heart's content.
This time, Long Yan was truly drunk. There was no intention of testing, and the pent-up frustration of the past few days dissipated in this drinking session.
Zhang Chi settled her in his own room, and only after leaving did he switch to Gu Youyou.
"For the Sword Sect, I have truly sacrificed too much."
"Yes, you even sold your looks!"
Lately, Gu Youyou's speech had become increasingly strange and ambiguous.
Zhang Chi didn't mind and said, "Selling my looks is secondary. It's just that I, a wicked wolf, have to pretend to be a milk dog... it's really..."
"Really uncomfortable?"
"Not at all, isn't it quite interesting?"
Gu Youyou: "..."
She had underestimated Zhang Chi.
"Are we going to find that Demon Race next?"
"No need."
Gu Youyou sensed Zhang Chi's desire to meet Jiang Qingyun, hence the question.
But Zhang Chi decisively refused.
Wanting to meet Jiang Qingyun was true, but he absolutely couldn't actively seek her out.
If he went to find her, Jiang Qingyun would run away.
If he continued to chase after her, Jiang Qingyun would be completely gone.
On the contrary, if he waited here, Jiang Qingyun would eventually come back.
As long as she could still hear news about him, as long as there were regrets and things she couldn't let go of in her heart, she would definitely come back.
If none of these existed, it would be useless for Zhang Chi to go find her.
"So, many times, as long as we do half of the work, we're good, leave the rest to others."
"That's why you let Tang Ruoling take the initiative?"
Gu Youyou brought up this topic, completely unaware of her own sour tone.
"That was to allow the Nine Probes of the Divine Dragon to have a stronger effect."
Zhang Chi argued.
After this separation, although Tang Ruoling was still shy, the effect of the Nine Probes of the Divine Dragon had improved significantly.
It can be seen that Zhang Chi's approach was correct.
The less resistance there was in the hearts of the subjects being cultivated, the better the effect would be. If the other party had no resistance at all, the effect would be even better.
Tang Ruoling, the experimental subject, had already proven this point.
To fully prove it, of course, more samples were needed.
But there was no rush for samples. Zhang Chi let Gu Youyou find a place to cultivate on her own, while he pondered some things himself.
A night passed without words. Long Yan slept until she naturally woke up, hearing the crisp chirping of birds in her ears, and a ray of morning light shining through the window onto the bed.
Her mood suddenly became very good.
She sat up from the bed, opened the window, and saw Zhang Chi practicing swordplay outside, with a beautiful bird as his opponent.
And she could hear the chirping of birds because the trees and eaves around were filled with birds watching the show.
These birds would occasionally make a few calls, brushing for attention.
Long Yan recognized them as the birds they encountered in the secret realm with Zhang Chi. It seemed like they were now comparing their martial arts skills?
Zhang Chi was using a wooden sword, while Cai Yu relied on her own wings and claws.
The reason they were fighting here was actually because Zhang Chi was coaxing Cai Yu to stay.
After coming out of the secret realm, Cai Yu was originally going to say goodbye, but Zhang Chi fell ill. Cai Yu stayed to take care of him and keep him company.
Now that Zhang Chi was feeling better, Cai Yu should leave.
But Zhang Chi proposed to observe Cai Yu's posture and comprehend the Fengyi Sword Technique.
Although the Great River Sword Sect had preserved most of its heritage, many lineages were lost. Zhang Chi wanted to learn a new sword technique to teach everyone, and Cai Yu was undoubtedly a good teacher.
When Cai Yu heard Zhang Chi say this, she couldn't fly away.
Cai Yu, as a noble princess, couldn't abandon a friend in need. The noble Cai Yu couldn't do such a thing!
So, Cai Yu stayed temporarily again.
The morning battle was an important part of comprehending swordsmanship.
After the fight, Cai Yu proudly said to Zhang Chi, "How about it, how much of my posture have you learned?"
Zhang Chi looked embarrassed and said, "I did learn, but I feel like you might be too tired, so your posture doesn't seem as elegant as it was in the secret realm."
After speaking, Zhang Chi quickly remedied, "But it doesn't matter, swordsmanship doesn't have to be so elegant."
Upon hearing this, Cai Yu became anxious.
How could I, Princess Cai Yu, not be elegant?
That's right, it must be because I've been tired lately.
"Don't worry, when I've rested well, you can come and learn again."
After speaking, Cai Yu hurriedly flew away and found a secluded place to train her own demeanor.
She couldn't afford to lose her elegance, even if everything else was lacking.
As Cai Yu left, Zhang Chi laughed heartily in his heart.
These birds are really amusing.
Gu Youyou: "..."
This person really lacks generosity.
Long Yan didn't understand Zhang Chi's actions. She waited until Zhang Chi stopped practicing his sword before coming out to bid farewell.
The affairs of the Dragon Transformation Palace were numerous, and although there were many people handling them, Long Yan still took on the task of arranging the downstream four sects.
She didn't trust others to do it.
After all, they were allies of the Dragon River Alliance. Now that the downstream four sects were in trouble, it would be too unethical to let others take advantage of the situation.
And there were quite a few people who wanted to do such unethical things.
Long Yan could only watch over it herself.
Zhang Chi didn't keep her either. With Long Yan's character and way of doing things, she would come back sooner or later.
Zhang Chi only gave Long Yan a choice, which may not necessarily be a good one, but as long as it exists, there is a possibility of being chosen.
When there are only two choices in front of Long Yan, the probability of being chosen is as high as fifty percent.
Just as Long Yan was leaving Little Warehouse Mountain on a Cotton Cloud, she saw a group of people heading towards Little Warehouse Mountain.
She recognized them as the enforcers from the Profound Heart Sect.
Long Yan instinctively felt that they were going to cause trouble for Little Warehouse Mountain, so she quickly followed them.
Now that the Sword Sect is weak, Long Yan naturally has to protect them.
However, the enforcers from the Profound Heart Sect turned in the direction of Iron Sword Gate instead of Little Warehouse Mountain.
Long Yan followed and only then discovered that something big had happened at Iron Sword Gate, which is adjacent to the Sword Sect.
The scene was a mess, with blood flowing like a river.
All the victims had their bodies separated and neatly piled up.
Such a scene was chilling.
Long Yan no longer concealed her presence and flew down directly. After revealing her identity, she asked, "What's going on here?"
The people from the Profound Heart Sect had also heard of Long Yan's name, so naturally they didn't dare to be negligent and quickly explained the reason.
Someone reported this morning that Iron Sword Gate had been wiped out.
The people from the Profound Heart Sect came to take a look out of courtesy, as this place is close to the Profound Heart Sect.
However, the disciples who came were not important personnel. The real high-ranking members were investigating the death of Elder Lianhua.
Elder Lianhua was assassinated last night, and no one, including the servants, survived.
The Profound Heart Sect was furious!
But this news is currently being sealed off.
Because Lianhua was killed in the main headquarters of the sect.
It should be noted that there are several elders at the Divine Ability Realm level in the main headquarters, and yet someone was able to silently sneak in and kill so many people. This is even more terrifying than Lianhua's death.
No one knows who Lianhua offended and whether it will endanger the sect.
After discussing among the elders, they unanimously decided to seal off the news and quietly investigate internally without making it public.
Externally, they claimed that Lianhua died while attempting to break through the Divine Ability Realm.
Therefore, another case of death due to breakthrough in cultivation realm has been added.
Jiang Qingyun was not surprised to hear this explanation.
If the Profound Heart Sect wants to investigate further, they will kill anyone who investigates.
It is indeed difficult to confront the Profound Heart Sect alone, but assassins excel at taking them down one by one.
The Profound Heart Sect dares not investigate, so the matter ends here.
Now the question before Jiang Qingyun is whether to meet with Zhang Chi or not.
Can Zhang Chi be left alone?
