Chapter 105: Within a Stone’s Throw Away the Enemy

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Pavilion Master, City Lord Duan requests an audience.”

The f*ck?

Liu Yuan, who was sitting in the lower seat, twitched his mouth and almost blurted out ‘F*ck’.

Then, he tried his best to control his facial expression and pinched himself with his fingers. He put on a focused look and stared at the decorations on the table.

Why did she have to come to the Sword Pavilion at this time?

He was not afraid that Duan Lanruo would try to kill him like Shen Sifan, but he was afraid that Duan Lanruo would recognize him in the Sword Pavilion and lose her composure. At that time, it would be difficult for him to get off the stage.

After all, Duan Lanruo’s identity was special. If there was any big news about her private life, it would inevitably cause an uproar inside and outside the Sword Pavilion. She was a woman who held the power of the City of Ten Thousand Swords, and there were already many disgruntled voices in the Sword Pavilion.

For example, she was not the only 9-star swordsman in the current generation. Because of her status as the widow of the previous Sword Pavilion Master, as compensation, she was allowed to take charge of the city. If the status of the widow was gone, public opinion would rise, and she would be under even more pressure.

However, according to Liu Yuan’s deduction, she should be the first to discover his identity.

Liu Yuan took a deep breath and prayed that he was calm enough.

On the seat of honor, Zuo Youhuai turned his head slightly in surprise, his eyes unfocused, “What is she doing here?”

“The City Lord said that it’s related to the Xuanyin family,” the messenger said respectfully.

Liu Yuan continued to remain calm.’ Isn’t it just the Xuanyin family? She should be here to report Ye Cike’s movements, right?’

Zuo Youhuai muttered, “So it’s about that person from the Xuanyin family. It just so happens that the disciple of the ‘Boundless Sword’ is here. Perhaps the relationship between the Sword Pavilion and the Xuanyin family will turn for the better.”

He waved his hand, and the man left respectfully.

The Sword Pavilion Master turned around and said, “Geng Qi, do you know about the grudge between your Grandmaster and the Xuanyin family?”

Geng Qi touched his head. “I know. But my Master said that the Grandmaster had already let go of this grudge before he died. He only hoped to show the best work of his life.”

Zuo Youhuai smiled. “That’s a good thing. Speaking of which, where’s your Master? Why did he send you, his grand-disciple, to the Sword Pavilion?”

“Oh, it’s like this…” Geng Qi began to talk about how his Master had no talent, how his Grandmaster had despised him, and how he had to pass on the Grandmaster’s legacy to him so that he could regain the name and reputation of the Boundless Sword.

After a while, the door of the room was opened again.

The person who walked in was a woman wearing a long, snow-white dress. Because she was out, she was wearing a light tulle dress, and her graceful figure could be vaguely seen.

Her brows were deep blue, her lips were red, and her skin was fair. Her black hair was tied up in a high bun, and her eyes were bright. Her expression was cold and solemn because it involved serious business, and the mature beauty of her appearance could not cover the cold Majesty that had accumulated over the years. She was the City Lord of the City of Ten Thousand Swords, Duan Lanruo.

Duan Lanruo took two steps forward and raised the long sword in her hand. “Pavilion Master…”

The woman’s eyes fell on Liu Yuan, who was sitting at the side, and they looked at each other.

Their eyes met.

The collision created some sparks, and the woman’s eyes suddenly burst with a surprised light. Her breathing seemed to have quickened a little, but she did not feel stunned or surprised.

She had indeed found out that Liu Yuan was the one behind Jiang Feng’s identity, but she did not expect Liu Yuan to appear in the Sword Pavilion.

The corner of Liu Yuan’s mouth twitched. His hands, which had been placed on the table for a long time, made a gesture to keep quiet, and his eyes indicated restraint.

Damn it, this woman’s eyes were glowing. The progress bar on top of her head was full, and the pink color seemed to have spread to her body as well, and her cheeks were a little red.

If he had not reminded her, would she have pounced on him on the spot?

Liu Yuan was suspicious and glanced at the activated Illustrated Handbook page.

[Card carrying bonus: (carry or not: (yes/no)]

He activated another one… and he was only a short distance away from filling up the ten card slots.

Duan Lanruo’s heart was beating so fast that it almost jumped out of her throat.

The person that she had been dreaming about for so many years was right in front of her. The day before, she was still reading the information on the paper and arranging for someone to meet him. Today, she had already met him, face to face, only a few steps away.

Who could say that this was not fate?

Duan Lanruo’s eyes almost teared up immediately, and happiness filled her chest. She could not wait to hug him tightly and bury him in her chest, letting him caress…

However, Liu Yuan’s actions and gaze 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 Cike, the Young Mistress of the Xuanyin family, has returned the Skyring Sword left behind by the 9-star swordsman, ‘Boundless Sword’ Ji Zhai, to the Sword Pavilion.”

She raised the sword in her hand, revealing a black scabbard and a golden hilt. The spine of the sword was in the shape of two rings, forming concentric circles.

“What’s the price?” Zuo Youhuai asked.

Duan Lanruo’s eyes instantly darted to Liu Yuan as she said, “The Thousand Sword Array formation. She needs to use the array formation to trap someone in the city.”

Liu Yuan’s mouth twitched. This was too ruthless!

If he was trapped by the Ten Thousand Sword Array formation, he would not be able to escape unless he was at the Synthesis stage or above.

Fortunately, Ye Cike did not know that in the Central Plains, the most beautiful, smart, rich, and powerful women from a relatively large force were all Liu Yuan’s cards.

Perhaps this was also another meaning of ‘within a stone’s throw away the enemy’.

Zuo Youhuai took the sword and caressed it with his hand. He pulled it out and ‘examined’ it. “The Skyring Sword… This is indeed the real one. 200 years ago, it was ranked as one of the Ten Great Swords when it first appeared, but it later followed Ji Zhai’s departure and stayed in the Xuanyin family.”

“And now, it has returned to the Sword Pavilion.”

He sighed and turned to look at Liu Yuan and Geng Qi. These two young men were very reserved. Even the generous and carefree Jiang Feng, who was neither humble nor arrogant at the beginning, seemed to be a little nervous at this moment.

He could not blame the young man… This woman was the City Lord of the City of Ten Thousand Swords. Back then, she was also a famous beauty. It was only after she became the City Lord that she gradually disappeared from the public’s sight.

The Sword Pavilion Master could not help but smile like an elder. “I have yet to introduce everyone. This is the City Lord of the City of Ten Thousand Swords. You may address her as Master Duan. She is one of the few 9-star swordsmiths of the current generation.”

He then pointed at Geng Qi and laughed. “What a coincidence today. Ji Zhai’s grand-disciple is back, and so is his sword. The 9-star swordsmiths of the Sword Pavilion are complete again.”

Geng Qi immediately stood up, his face full of shock. “9-star wordsmith!”

He hurriedly bowed.

“So you’re a disciple of Ji Zhai,” Duan Lanruo said with a smile. “I’m sure you’ll be able to shine in this Tideviewing and Sword-listening event.”

She walked over and casually sat down next to Liu Yuan. “I wonder who this is?”
