He was not afraid that Duan Lanruo would want to kill someone like Shen Sifan, but he was afraid that Duan Lanruo would recognize him in the Sword Pavilion and lose his composure for a moment... Then it would be difficult for him to step down. After all, Duan Lanruo has a special identity... If there is any big news about her private life, there will inevitably be an uproar inside and outside Jiange. She is a woman who holds the power in Wanjian City, and there are already many voices of dissatisfaction in Jiange. For example, there are more than one nine-star swordsmiths in the contemporary world, and she was allowed to take charge of Wanjian City as compensation because of her status as the widow of the former Sword Pavilion master... and so on. If the status of that chaste widow is gone, I'm afraid public opinion will arise and she will be under even greater pressure. But according to Liu Yuan's inference, she should be the first person to discover her identity... Liu Yuan took a deep breath and could only pray that she was calm enough. At the top, Zuo Youhuai turned his head slightly in surprise, his eyes out of focus: "Why is she here?" The person who reported it said respectfully: "The city lord said it was related to the Xuanyin family." Liu Yuan continued to keep calm. They were just the Xuanyin family. They should be here to report Ye Ci Ke's movements... Zuo Youhuai pondered and said, "So it's about that person from the Xuanyin family. It just so happens that Jian Ji Wuliang, who was depressed for the rest of his life because of this, has his disciple here now. It can be considered a coincidence... Maybe the relationship between Jian Pavilion and the Xuanyin family can take a turn for the better." He waved his hand and the man retreated respectfully.
The Sword Pavilion Master then turned around and said, "Geng Qi, do you know the grudge between your master and the Xuanyin family?" Geng Qi touched his head and said, "I know, but my master said that when the master was dying, he had let go of this grudge and only hoped to show the best work of his life." Zuo Youhuai smiled and said, "That's a good thing... Speaking of which, where is your master? Why did he let you, his disciple, come to Jian Pavilion?" "Oh, that's right..." Geng Qi began to tell how his master had no talent and was despised by his great-grandmaster, and how in the end his great-grandmaster's relics could only be passed on to him so that he could revive the reputation of Jian Ji Wuliang. After a while, the door of the room was opened again. The person who walked in was a woman in a snow-blue long dress. Because she was going out, she was wearing a light gauze dress, and her graceful figure could be vaguely seen underneath. She had dark black eyebrows, red lips and fair skin, her black hair was tied up in a high bun, her eyes were bright and her expression was stern because he was dealing with serious matters. Her mature and beautiful appearance could not hide the cold and majestic dignity that had accumulated over the years. She was the lord of Wanjian City - Duan Lanruo. Duan Lanruo took two steps forward and raised the sword in his hand: "Pavilion Master..." The words stopped abruptly, and the woman's eyes fell on Liu Yuan who was sitting on the side, and they looked at each other. Eyes meet. As if sparks were created, the woman's eyes suddenly lit up with surprise and her breathing seemed to quicken, but she did not show any shock or surprise. ——As expected, she had already found out that Liu Yuan was behind Jiang Feng’s identity, but she did not seem to have expected that Liu Yuan would appear directly in Jiange. Liu Yuan twitched the corners of his mouth, and made a gesture of silence with his hands that had been placed on the table, and signaled restraint with his eyes. Damn, this woman’s eyes are glowing... The progress bar above her head is full, and that pink color seems to have spread to her body, and her cheeks are a little red. If I hadn't warned her, she would have pounced on me... Liu Yuan was suspicious and glanced at the activated illustration page. [Character: Duan Lanruo (five stars)] 【Gender: Female】 [Title: Lord of Wanjian City·Water Sound and Mountain Scenery Locking Makeup Tower]
[Level: Immortal Dao·Fusion Level 7] [Status: normal] 【Attribute interface (click to view)】 [Card carrying bonus: (whether to carry: yes/no)] Another one activated... It's only a short distance away from filling up all ten card carrying slots. Duan Lanruo's heart was pounding so hard that it almost jumped out of her throat. The person in her dreams for many years was right in front of her, just within reach. The day before, she was still looking at the information on paper and arranging people to contact him, but today she had already met him, face to face, only a few steps away. Who can say this is not fate? Duan Lanruo's eyes almost moistened immediately, and the feeling of happiness filled her chest. She wanted to hug him tightly and bury him in her chest to comfort him... But Liu Yuan's actions and eyes successfully woke her up and reminded her of the occasion. Duan Lanruo took a deep breath and tried her best to calm down. She turned the sudden stop into a slight pause and said, "...Ye Ci Ke, the young master of the Xuanyin family, returned the Tianhuan Sword that the nine-star swordsmith Ji Zhai left in Xuanyin to the Sword Pavilion." She raised the long sword in her hand, revealing a black scabbard and a golden hilt. The hilt was shaped like two concentric circles. Zuo Youhuai paused and asked, "What's the price?" Duan Lanruo glanced at Liu Yuan for a moment and said, "Ten Thousand Swords Formation. She needs to use the Ten Thousand Swords Formation to trap someone in the city." Liu Yuan twitched his lips. This is too cruel! Directly use the Ten Thousand Swords Formation to trap him. Unless he is at the Fusion Stage, he really can't get out... Fortunately, Ye Ci Ke didn't know that in Zhongzhou, among any larger force he encountered after taking a few steps, the most beautiful, smartest, most powerful, and wealthy women were all Liu Yuan's targets. Perhaps this is another meaning of "within a short distance, everyone is an enemy." Zuo Youhuai took the sword, rubbed it with his hand, and pulled it out to "look at it carefully": "The Heavenly Ring Sword...it is indeed it. Two hundred years ago, it was ranked as one of the ten famous swords when it was first born, but later it stayed in the Xuanyin family with Ji Zhai's departure. Now, it has returned to Jiange." He sighed and turned to look at Liu Yuan and Geng Qi. The two young men looked very reserved. Even Jiang Feng, who had behaved dignified and generous at the beginning, seemed a little nervous at this moment. No wonder... After all, the person in front of him was the mayor of Wanjian City. She was also a famous beauty back then. But after she became the mayor of the city, she gradually disappeared from the public's sight. The Sword Pavilion Master couldn't help but smile like an elder: "I haven't introduced you yet, this is the Lord of Wanjian City. You can call her Master Duan. She is one of the few nine-star swordsmiths in the contemporary world." He pointed at Geng Qi again and said with a sigh and a smile, "Today is such a coincidence. Ji Zhai's disciple has returned, and the sword has also returned. The nine-star swordsmiths in Jiange are all here again." Geng Qi immediately stood up, his face full of shock: "Nine-star swordsmith!" He saluted quickly. Duan Lanruo smiled and said, "So you are Ji Zhai's disciple. I believe you will shine in this Guanchao Tingjian Conference." She walked over and sat down next to Liu Yuan as if nothing had happened: "Who is this person?" Chapter 108 I Miss You
Duan Lanruo was already closest to Liu Yuan when she walked in from the door, so it seemed nothing wrong for her to sit next to him. In addition, she was asking about Liu Yuan's identity, so it was reasonable for her to walk towards him. "..." It's quite reasonable! Liu Yuan could almost smell the faint fragrance, and his heart skipped a beat. He gave a warning, but Duan Lanruo still moved closer. What did she want to do? This is obviously intentional... However, no one else in the field was surprised. Zuo Youhuai smiled gently and said, "This little friend Jiang Feng is no ordinary man. He took less than half a cup of tea to go straight up the Shu Road and brought Geng Qi to Jiange. It really shocked people. There are always talented people in every generation, just like the waves in the Bailong River, one wave is stronger than the other. If he didn't have great courage and an indomitable spirit, he would never have been able to do this. The Shu Road Trial has always been a test of courage, and even the strongest swordsman will still feel fear in the face of life and death, but today I finally saw what fearlessness is..." Zuo Youhuai particularly admired Liu Yuan, and his tone revealed a strong sense of recruiting. Liu Yuan smiled shyly and said, "No, Pavilion Master, you are too kind. I was just lucky and rushed up here out of ignorance. If not, with the formation being so sophisticated and dangerous, how could I have come here so quickly?" Duan Lanruo smiled as she looked at him pretending to be shy and said, "Little Daoist Jiang, don't underestimate yourself. For hundreds of years, no one has ever broken through the Shudao Trial at such a fast speed. Although you are not a member of the Sword Pavilion, you have already reached a level that is difficult for people in the Sword Pavilion to reach." She said, "As the Lord of Wanjian City, I have never seen anyone so suitable for the sword path in all these years. Whether it is sword forging or sword wielding, your talent is quite good." Duan Lanruo was caught off guard and reached out to grab Liu Yuan's hand. "!" Oh shit, oh shit oh shit… What does she want to do in public? Liu Yuan was startled, and then he looked at the hidden mischief and cunning in Duan Lanruo's eyes. She pulled Liu Yuan's hand, took out a token and put it in Liu Yuan's hand. "This is my identity token. In Wanjian City, seeing this token is like seeing me in person. It is a gift to the younger generation who has high hopes for me... From now on, in Wanjian City, you can mobilize a quarter of the guards, and no one will dare to bully you." Oh, it’s a token, that’s okay. What's wrong? Hey! Who would give an identity token to a junior stranger right after meeting him? Liu Yuan was about to have a myocardial infarction. He glanced at the Sword Pavilion Master from the corner of his eye and found that the old man's face did not change color or anything. Instead, he suddenly understood and was very relieved... What are you feeling relieved about? If you knew that the former Pavilion Master’s wife had an affair with me, would you still be relieved? I'm afraid I'll be relieved. Liu Yuan twitched his lips, pushed the token away and said, "This, this is too expensive..." Before Duan Lanruo could speak, Zuo Youhuai smiled and said, "Just accept it. You can't refuse a gift from an elder. Master Duan is optimistic about you." Liu Yuan took the token with a subtle expression and said, "In that case, I would be disrespectful to refuse it." Zuo Youhuai pondered and asked, "A Sky Ring Sword is indeed of great value and of extraordinary significance. If it is exchanged for the right to use the Ten Thousand Swords Formation once, it seems to be worth it. But now that the Watching the Tide and Listening to the Swords Conference is approaching, will there be any omissions?" Duan Lanruo said seriously: "The Xuanyin Family is the Xuanyin Family after all, they are not so dirty as to use improper means. Besides, I have already sent people to fully monitor their transformation process and closely monitor it, so there will be no mistakes."
Liu Yuan looked at the token in his hand, and suddenly a line of words appeared on it: "I miss you." "..." The city lord, who was talking seriously about business while secretly passing sweet words to others, really had the sentiments of a girl passing notes in class. The Sword Pavilion Master nodded and said, "I have always believed in your abilities and skills, but there is one thing you need to be careful of. I heard that the Demon Cult is making another move. The city must strengthen its defenses and not allow anyone with an unknown identity to enter." Duan Lanruo nodded and said, "We just checked those people with fake identities yesterday, but they were all disciples of the sect who didn't want to reveal their identities, and there were no members of the Demon Cult." In other words, the flaw was found through a fake identity... Liu Yuan instantly understood why Duan Lanruo recognized him. "That's good." Zuo Youhuai nodded, and then asked about the current situation of the Wanjian City Sword Conference. After talking for a long time, it seemed that the time was almost up. Liu Yuan stood up and said, "Now that Geng Qi has been sent here, my mission has been completed. I still have to go to Mingjiantai to register, so I have to leave first. Thank you for the hospitality, Pavilion Master..." Duan Lanruo suddenly stood up and said, "Pavilion Master, I am also tired. Since we are on the way, let's go with Young Friend Jiang Feng." Zuo Youhuai waved his hand, naturally agreeing, and also advised: "Jiang Feng, you are too popular this time, I am afraid that many people will notice you, you need to be more cautious, lest someone use some despicable means against you." Liu Yuan nodded in agreement, and Geng Qi stayed in Jiange for the time being, saying that he would work hard to win the championship. After leaving the room, there was still the rumbling sound of the river outside, as well as the faint clattering of chains on both sides of the river. The two of them walked down the mountain, one in front and the other behind, along another path opened up in the cliff by Jiange. Because there were many Sword Pavilion disciples around, the two of them kept their distance. Duan Lanruo, who was in front, said as he walked: "After you finish signing up, I will send someone to find you and bring you to see me." Liu Yuan hummed: "Is Ye Ci Ke in your house now?" Duan Lanruo paused, turned around and smiled, "Of course, she lives in my Lanfang Garden, and she is thinking about how to catch you." Liu Yuan couldn't help but laugh and said, "And then I asked you for help?" This is really beyond words... It's like walking into a trap. Although Ye Ci Ke herself was not aware of this, but when Liu Yuan thought about her seriously asking Duan Lanruo to help activate the Ten Thousand Swords Formation, he found it so silly. Duan Lanruo rolled her eyes at him and snorted, "You're still laughing, isn't it because you provoked her, and that Shen Sifan, who chased me all the way from Taiqing Pavilion to the southeast corner of Zhongzhou? No wonder you came to me." Although he said it was a complaint, there was also a hint of pride in his tone... In front of this woman, Liu Yuan felt the most secure during this period of time. Liu Yuan chuckled and said, "Except for you, I can't think of any other place to hide." Duan Lanruo thought to herself, "I'll be happier when one day you stop trying to hide here and come to me on your own initiative... But, that day will come sooner or later."
