Her pretty face was like flawless white porcelain, glowing faintly in the sun, and her big crimson amber eyes sparkled with intelligence, lively and cute. Although her body is still developing, it has already begun to take on a graceful look, like a flower that has just bloomed, full of vitality and beauty. Looking at the lovely girl who exudes youthfulness in every place, Jinyun couldn't help but sigh that time flies. The little Jingliu who was still a tiny girl not long ago has grown into a beauty who can rival the moon and flowers. Chapter 17: Coquetry and Master-Disciple "How did you know I was here?" Jinyun looked at Jingliu with a smile. The other party blinked mischievously and said, "Is there any need to say this? This is clearly the place you agreed to meet, isn't it, Master?" "I mean, how did you know I would be back at this time?" "Ah? I don't know~" Jing Liu stuck out his tongue and said, "I just calculated the time and thought that Master should be back, so I waited here in advance~ I was lucky this time, you came out just as I arrived."
"Old man? Am I that old?" Jinyun stretched out his hand and pinched Jingliu's delicate face. The other party did not resist. Instead, he came forward intimately and put his arms around Jinyun's neck: "Hey~ Master, I like you the most~" "Heh, are you acting like a spoiled child to me? You're so old, and you're still acting like a spoiled child?" Although Jinyun said this jokingly, he was extremely happy in his heart. In the original work, Jingliu is a cold and crazy beauty. It is impossible for her to have such a cute and clingy side. It is quite interesting to see the contrast in Jingliu in this regard. He looked at the status bar of Glass Stream: 【饱食度：65/100】 [Mood value: 100/100] [Bond value: 4370 (Mountain and Flowing Water)] 【Emotion: Joy, Sweetness】 When the bond value exceeds 3000, the character's bond value can reach the highest "mountains and flowing water" stage. The bond between Jingliu and himself has already reached the highest value. Jinyun looked at this column, feeling both happy and helpless. I'm happy because the bond between Jingliu and myself can be said to be stronger than gold. Unfortunately, after reaching this level, no matter what he did, his bond value would only increase, but his level would no longer increase. According to AI Assistant 02, a bond level closer than mountains and flowing water does exist and is set as a hidden level. As long as you find the conditions to unlock the hidden bond level and complete it, you can raise the Mirror Flow's bond value to the final stage. But even if Jinyun racked his brains, he couldn't figure out how to activate this condition.
He has also borrowed from other games. According to the general settings, when the player's favorability with the character reaches the highest level, a CP task will be triggered, and after completing it, the player can establish a CP relationship with the character. However, Star Network does not seem to have included such a task in this game, and there is not even a hint. As a beta version that has not been publicly tested, Jinyun couldn't help but think about R18 - Could it be that I have to have an intimate relationship with Jingliu before I can truly maximize the bond value? That's too R18! "So, did you hear what I just said, Master? Why were you daydreaming?" Jingliu's call brought Jinyun back to his senses from his chaotic thoughts. "Sorry, I was thinking about something else." Jinyun shook off all those thoughts and asked, "What did you just say?" "I said, let me ask you to give me some advice!~" "Hey, here we go again, little girl, don't you have anything else you want to do besides practicing swordplay?" Jinyun couldn't help but reach out and rub Jingliu's hair. "Master, I, I am not a child anymore..." That was true, but Jingliu did not resist. Instead, he gently shook his little head left and right as Jinyun kneaded him. A blush appeared on his fair cheeks, like a tender and juicy peach. "You were just acting like a spoiled brat in front of me, why are you saying you're not a child now?" "Hmm~ This is called a flexible bottom line~" "Pfft, don't learn everything." Jinyun was a little amused and helpless. These were just his nonsense. He never thought that Jingliu would use them against him one day. "Okay, little girl, let's start practicing. What's today's mission?" "Same old, twenty thousand swings of the sword." "It was only 15,000 a while ago, but now it's so high intensity right from the start?" "Proficiency comes from diligence and neglect comes from laziness; success comes from thinking and failure comes from carelessness. This is what you taught me, Master. Over the years, I have never forgotten it for a single day~" Jingliu drew out the Shunsui sword with a smile and prepared to start practicing sword swinging. "anyway......" Jinyun looked at the Chunshui Sword in Jingliu's hand, which looked a little old, but the blade was still as sharp as new, and said: "Is this the sword I gave you in the beginning? You've used it for so many years, it's time to change it. Didn't I give you a better sword?" "That's right, but this is the one that I use most easily~" Jingliu held the Shunsui sword in front of him, and stroked the sword with his bare hands as if caressing the face of a lover: "This sword means a lot to me. As long as it is with me, it is as if my master is always by my side. Therefore..."
Jing Liu turned to face Jin Yun and smiled sweetly: "Therefore, no matter how many good swords I get in the future, the Chun Shui that Master gave me will always be the sword I treasure most~" "Yeah......" Jinyun raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and a warm feeling surged in his heart. Just like that, Jingliu began to practice swinging the sword as usual. Jinyun watched from the side as he did before, giving some guidance from time to time. Jingliu completed the first ten thousand times with relative ease. However, as time goes on, swinging the sword will become more and more difficult. The net weight of the Chunshui Sword is only six pounds and four ounces. In the Yunqi Army, every sword used by Jingliu is heavier than this one. But the more you swing the sword, the more tired your hands will become. By the last two hundred strokes, Jingliu felt that what he was holding in his hand was not the Chunshui Sword, but a piece of heavy black iron. "Nineteen thousand eight hundred and one, nineteen thousand eight hundred and two..." Jinyun stood aside with his hands behind his back, smiling, and asked calmly: "You're almost done?" "No, I won't!" Jingliu ignored the sweat on his forehead, gritted his teeth and swung his sword while answering arrogantly: "Only twenty thousand times. Isn't that how I do it every day?" "Indeed, pay attention to your posture and don't let your hands drift." "Yes, Master!" Jinyun crossed his arms across his chest and said with a smile: "Hold tight. As a Cloud Rider, you must not let your weapons slip away or your body become unfocused." "Yes! Master!" Jingliu's face flushed and he gripped the hilt of the sword even tighter. Every time he swung the sword, he seemed to use all his strength. "Nineteen thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine... twenty thousand!" By the last strike, Jingliu could hardly hold the blade. But she still gritted her teeth and persevered, completing this high-intensity training. Jinyun looked at her data panel silently: [Name: Mirror Flow] 【Level: 58】
[Experience value: 65205/231800] 【HP: 3470】 [Attack power: 1595] [Defense: 883] 【Critical Rate: 】 [Critical Hit Rate: ] [Comprehensive Combat Power: 27681] The ordinary Cloud Cavalry only has a combat power of about 300 people, and the combat power of the Jinren Sihuan, a high-level weapon used by Xianzhou to guard important areas, is only over 1. Jing Liu has a combat power of up to . In Cangcheng, except for the sword master who is elusive all year round and General Cangcheng, no one can defeat her. Except myself, of course. According to this growth trend, it may not be long before Jingliu and the sword master of Cangcheng will be able to fight each other. Chapter 18: Decision to Develop a New Character "Master, I'm done practicing~" Jingliu put down his sword, ignoring the sweat on his forehead, and looked towards Jinyun. She blinked her big eyes and stared at Jinyun motionlessly. She looked cute but also a little silly, as if she was hinting madly: Master, why don't you praise me? "Great, you are worthy of being my disciple." Jinyun naturally would not be stingy with his praise for Jingliu. Jingliu, who was praised by Jinyun, immediately became delighted and showed a touching smile. If others saw her smile like this, they would probably be so shocked that their eyes would pop out of their heads. At least in the Cloud Cavalry Army, no Cloud Cavalry had ever seen this cold and beautiful jade-like girl smile at others. "Come on, have a drink." Jinyun took out a can of drink and handed it over. The smile on Jingliu's face froze for a second, and he asked doubtfully: "Master, is this soda bean juice? Excuse me, that stuff is just swill! I feel dizzy and nauseous just by smelling it." "Hahaha, of course not. I know you don't like that stuff. It's filled with raspberry juice, which you can't buy in Xianzhou." "Well, is it?" "What? Even Master doesn't believe it?" "It's not that I don't trust you, you've tricked me so many times..." Jingliu curled his lips and muttered a little aggrievedly.
She took the drink and took a sip, her amber eyes suddenly lit up: "Really, really delicious! So sweet!" "Didn't I lie to you?" "Hmmmm! Master, where did you buy this?"
