Douluo Dalu: Seven Kills

Chapter 270 Chen Junting: Old Ji, are you practicing the ruthless sword or the affectionate sword?
Chen Junting spent the next half hour in the Soul Guidance Research Institute and only left after Ji Juechen and the others came back.

But before leaving, he did not give any instructions on the topic of soul guides, but instead turned to Jing Ziyan.

"Sister Zi Yan, you have been staying in the Soul Guidance Research Institute since you joined our Nine Treasures Glazed Sect and have never left. It just so happens that Old Ji has just made a breakthrough and plans to stop for a few days before continuing to practice. Why don't you two take a good rest these few days? After all, it's a good combination of work and rest."

Ji Juechen, who had just returned with Jing Ziyan, was stunned when he heard this, then narrowed his eyes slightly and wanted to say something.

rest?

He felt that he did not need to rest. On the contrary, he had just broken through to the Soul Saint level and was planning to return and practice with Chen Junting.

But before he could express his meaning, he noticed that Jing Ziyan seemed to be trembling after hearing Chen Junting's words.

But in a blink of an eye, the trembling returned to calm.

Ji Juechen almost thought that it was just an illusion.

Jing Ziyan seemed to be shaken by what Chen Junting had just said, but she picked up the drink at hand and took a few sips to calm herself down, then she forced a smile.

"Or I'd better forget it. The research on mechas and battle armors is at an extremely important stage. If I leave for a day, the laboratory will definitely not have enough manpower, and I don't know how much the research progress will be delayed. So... forget it."

He glanced at Ji Juechen inconspicuously and chose to refuse.

She understood Ji Juechen, to the very core of his being.

If you say Ji Juechen doesn't practice swordsmanship, you might as well believe that someone is going to become a god. It's hard to believe that Old Ji would say such a thing. Instead, it sounds more like someone made it up.

Looking at the embarrassed Chen Junting, Jing Ziyan curled her lips.

She also knew that this was a good intention. But...

Ugh!
Old Ji is a blockhead and has no idea how to be smart.

At this moment, the embarrassment on Chen Junting's face gradually disappeared. After all, what he said was just the beginning.

The purpose is to create an opportunity for the two of them.

I saw the next second,
"Zi Yan, it's okay for you to take a day off..."

At this time, Xuan Ziwen and the other two all laughed. Their eyes looked back and forth between Ji Juechen and the other person, as if they understood something, and finally their gazes fell on Jing Ziyan.

Coincidentally, the latter also looked at the three people at this time.

Xuan Ziwen smiled and shook his head. They were both from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy, so it was appropriate for him to speak now. "Zi Yan, the data of the mecha and battle armor have been tested almost completely. The specific progress is not easy to explain. We also need metal of superb quality. So even if it takes three days of rest, the laboratory can approve it for you."

"this…"

Jing Ziyan bit her lower lip, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

Unexpectedly, Xuan Ziwen waved his hand and interrupted her directly, "Okay, this is not a discussion, but a request. You should have a good rest for the next day."

There was an unquestionable tone in his words.

Jing Ziyan looked at Xuan Ziwen, then quietly glanced at the indifferent Ji Juechen, and was speechless for a moment.

Seeing this, Chen Junting roughly understood Jing Ziyan's thoughts, which were nothing more than waiting for Ji Juechen to speak. So he moved his lips slightly, and a soul power transmission sound came from his mouth into Ji Juechen's ears, "Old Ji, don't you feel sorry for Sister Ziyan who stays up all night?"

Ji Juechen's pupils trembled. Is he heartbroken?

Suddenly hearing this, it seems to be true.

But before he could say anything, "Okay then."

At this time, Jing Ziyan did not hesitate any longer, but nodded in agreement. As I said before, she understood Ji Juechen.

I want him to react and speak.
It would be better if the sun set in the east.

In this case, there is no need to embarrass him. She wanted to rest anyway, so she could take advantage of this day to have a good rest. As for Ji Juechen... they could do the same as before. She could just accompany Ji Juechen wherever he went to practice sword or challenge.

"Then I'll go pack my things first, wait for me to leave together."

Jing Ziyan took off her white coat and ran out of the laboratory.

When Ji Juechen saw this, he just stared at it in a daze.

There was only one sentence in his mind:

Well, it seems needless to say.

However, as soon as this thought flashed through his mind, he realized that there seemed to be four pairs of eyes staring at him blankly from behind, making him feel inexplicably uncomfortable all over.

When I turned around, wow!
"Did you...did I do something wrong?"

For the first time, Ji Juechen hesitated for a moment and spoke tentatively.

Because the looks cast upon him at this moment, to use a word to describe it, seemed as if everyone was "disappointed with iron for not being able to achieve his goal".

This is true for Brother Chen and Teacher Xuan as well.

"You are wrong. You are totally wrong." Chen Junting grabbed Ji Juechen and said, "Old Ji, what happened to you just now? Why didn't you seize such a good opportunity?"

"Opportunity? What opportunity?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Juechen looked confused.

Chen Junting did not rush to answer Ji Juechen, but asked him a question, "Do you know why you felt inexplicably uncomfortable when you didn't see Sister Zi Yan for seven days?"

Without waiting for Ji Juechen to respond, Chen Junting woke him up.

Over the years, Jing Ziyan has become a part of Ji Juechen's life. If one day Jing Ziyan is not by Ji Juechen's side, Ji Juechen will feel very uncomfortable and even feel like something is missing around him.

And this is a habit. When people are used to having another person by their side, they will feel uncomfortable if they suddenly lose him/her.

When that person is really gone, then you will realize how precious it is to have another person by your side.

For example, these seven days are a prominent example.

"I…"

For a moment, Ji Juechen was distracted by these words.

He was a blockhead, but not stupid. Facing Chen Junting's straightforward explanation, he undoubtedly understood the meaning of it.

"But I... my world only has swords..."

Ji Juechen's words became hesitant, and as soon as he finished speaking, he was met with Chen Junting's "disbelieving" gaze, "You said that your world only has swords? What do you think that habit is? That's emotion!"

Chen Junting's words were mixed with resentment. "Do you think you are leaving with no woman in your heart and a natural god with a sword? A girl has been with you for so long, what does she want?"

Having said that, Chen Junting changed the subject.

His sharp eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts. "Old Ji, do you think you are practicing the ruthless sword? Or the affectionate sword? If you are affectionate, then what is the purpose of swinging the sword?"

"I practiced...I practiced for..."

These words were like the last straw.

Suddenly, scenes from the past came flooding back to my mind.

Get to know each other, accompany each other, know each other...

In his own world, apart from the sword, it seemed that there was only her.

Ji Juechen seemed to hear a crisp cracking sound coming from his heart, and only then did he understand what he had missed.

Just at this moment, Jing Ziyan walked into the laboratory holding a storage soul guide. Looking at Ji Juechen who was motionless, she walked forward naturally and said, "Old Ji, let's go. What are you standing there for?"

But before she could react, Ji Juechen suddenly turned sideways and grabbed Jing Ziyan's shoulders, with a firm look and firm words, "Ziyan, let's be together."

"Aren't we always together?"

Jing Ziyan was confused, but when she fully realized the meaning of these words, suddenly, she froze like a clay sculpture, and the storage soul guide rolled down quietly and smashed heavily on the ground.

Sword fanatic, sword fanatic, finally he is not just obsessed with swords.

"You, what did you say... Explain clearly, what do you mean?" Jing Ziyan's voice trembled uncontrollably, tears falling from the corners of her eyes. Could it be that she really couldn't hear clearly?
No, she knew very well.

She even felt that she had never heard so clearly.

Jing Ziyan's tears were certainly not because she was sad, but because she was crying with joy, and it was also a kind of release for herself.

"I think it's time for us to leave."

Chen Junting flashed and came to the side of the other three people.

And his words were immediately agreed by the three people.

No one knows how passionately the love between the two young people, which has been pent up for so many years, will burst out at this moment.

Shortly after stepping out of the laboratory, Chen Junting stopped for a moment and looked back at the closed door of the laboratory. He had already sensed a change in the sword intent, and the "silence" gradually changed.

He turned his sleeves slightly and raised the corners of his mouth.

"It seems that this sword fanatic has also become crazy about love."

……

After leaving the Soul Guidance Research Institute, Chen Junting did not pay much attention to Ji Juechen and the others. Instead, he immediately asked Uncle Ning to increase the research funding for the A01 laboratory.

After all, mechas and battle armors are both epoch-making.

If you want to succeed, you have to spend money!
