Serving as a Jinyiwei, starting from plundering the swordsmanship talent

Chapter 243 is outrageous, yet perfectly reasonable! The cultivation manual is in hand.
Although it was said in a joking tone.

But Sheng Lanzhi was still a little worried.

Previously, Ye Liuyun only had Xing'er by his side, but Xing'er was originally his personal maid, and Sheng Lanzhi trusted her quite a bit.

But it's different now.

Qu Sisi and Shu Fan are both top-tier beauties.

In terms of appearance, none of them are inferior to me.

If I don't come back to visit more often, I'm afraid I'll really forget myself.

"Hahaha! Of course not, you're different!"

Yes! Sheng Lanzhi is truly different.

However, Sheng Lanzhi didn't understand the other meaning and couldn't help but laugh. In any case, Sheng Lanzhi was still very happy to hear Ye Liuyun say that she was different from other women.

"correct!"

At this moment, Sheng Lanzhi suddenly thought of something.

He immediately instructed the maid beside him to fetch a brocade box that he had prepared in advance.

Inside the brocade box was a sword with a Tai Chi pattern carved on its hilt. Although it was sheathed, judging from the spiritual energy it exuded, it was definitely not an ordinary item.

"Is this a magical artifact?"

Ye Liuyun could tell that the sword was a spiritual weapon.

Sheng Lanzhi smiled and nodded.

"I was thinking that since you are a martial artist, you would really like such a magical weapon. I happened to have acquired this longsword when the merchant guild was buying up goods, so I thought I would bring it back to give to you."

"It's just a low-grade spiritual artifact, but I hope you'll like it, sir!"

Weapon-type magical artifacts are extremely rare.

Moreover, Sheng Lanzhi's Chamber of Commerce was only recently established and can be said to be just getting started.

In this situation.

It's already quite good that they were able to acquire this low-grade spiritual weapon. This shows that Sheng Lanzhi really put a lot of thought into choosing a gift for Ye Liuyun.

"Great, I'm very satisfied!"

He took the sword out of the brocade box and swung it around a couple of times; it was indeed exceptionally sharp.

I was not disappointed.

Instead, he nodded approvingly at Sheng Lanzhi. Indeed, keeping Sheng Lanzhi back then was quite useful.

Although with Ye Liuyun's talent, practicing swordsmanship would be twice as effective with half the effort.

However, Ye Liuyun still preferred the sweeping and powerful swordsmanship. In his opinion, this swordsmanship was inexplicably a bit too delicate.

but.

Just like Sheng Lanzhi said.

It is, after all, a low-grade spiritual artifact, but it's not bad for collecting.

"I'm glad you like it, sir!"

Seeing Ye Liuyun say this.

Sheng Lanzhi visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

At first, Sheng Lanzhi was really worried that Ye Liuyun wouldn't like the longsword, but fortunately, that didn't happen.

After swinging his longsword a couple more times, Ye Liuyun sheathed it again.

"Alright, it's almost time. Have someone prepare dinner!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will have someone prepare it immediately!"

,,,

night.

In the courtyard, Ye Liuyun, having nothing to do, began to familiarize himself with the techniques for getting up.

Spiritual practice is like rowing against the current; if you don't move forward, you fall behind.

Regularly consolidating one's strength, while not directly increasing one's cultivation level, can at least ensure that one's power does not decline.

"call!"

After a few sword strikes, Ye Liuyun adjusted his breathing slightly.

He put the longsword he used during training back on the sword rack, and just then he saw the longsword that had been placed aside.

"To be honest, what I originally wanted was to obtain a cultivation technique, but I ended up getting a magical artifact instead!"

Put it this way.

The effect of making your wishes come true is not entirely without merit.

I can only say it's useful, but not much!
But Ye Liuyun wasn't disappointed; why not take something that's free?

He drew his longsword again and swung it around casually. Even though he hadn't formally studied it before, with Ye Liuyun's current talent, he could use a sword as if it were an extension of his own arm the first time he used it.

There was not a trace of awkwardness.

"Should we also learn a sword technique?"

As he wielded his longsword, Ye Liuyun began to ponder inwardly.

We'll create a duo of swordsmen and sabers then.

Although it won't fundamentally increase your own strength, it sounds pretty cool to say it out loud!

Tsk!
I never imagined that after all this time, I would still have that kind of childish, immature feeling inside me!
Think of this.

Ye Liuyun chuckled for a moment, speechless.

He swung his longsword, creating a flourish, and then sheathed it again.

"Keng!"

Upon hearing the sound of the sword being sheathed, Ye Liuyun was suddenly taken aback.

"Ok?"

You can't be mistaken, there's an unusual sound.

Now that his cultivation level has improved, his perception ability has also increased significantly.

Although it is very subtle.

However, Ye Liuyun still pointed out that when the sword was sheathed, in addition to the normal sound, there was also a slight rattling sound.

However, the sound was very faint.

If Ye Liuyun hadn't broken through to the Grandmaster level and was still at the Grandmaster level, he probably wouldn't have been able to tell.

Haven't discovered it before.

Now that Ye Liuyun was the only one present and the surroundings were quiet, he could hear the strange noise.

"Illusion?"

Ye Liuyun was somewhat surprised as he looked at the low-grade spiritual weapon in his hand.

Or.

Is this a sound that comes with the magical artifact?
Confused, Ye Liuyun drew his sword out of its sheath again and then sheathed it, trying several times.

It was only at the very end that a conclusion was reached.

"There's something in here!"

It might be an illusion once or twice, but if it happens several times a day, then it's definitely not an illusion.

There really is something inside this sword, which is why this movement makes the sword make a strange sound.

Think of this.

Ye Liuyun examined the sword closely.

The object is hidden inside the sword, meaning that to retrieve it, the sword must be destroyed.

",,,"

Although low-grade spiritual artifacts are precious, they are relatively rare.

Ye Liuyun was even more curious about what could be hidden inside a low-grade spiritual artifact.

Thinking of this, Ye Liuyun raised his hand and grabbed the tip of the sword.

He circulated his internal energy and began to exert force in his arms.

With such powerful force, the sword began to bend.

The sturdiness of a low-grade spiritual weapon is definitely incomparable to that of an ordinary mortal weapon.

Even spiritual artifacts have a limit to their strength; they are clearly not truly indestructible.

With Ye Liuyun's current cultivation level as a Grandmaster...

If one so desires, one can destroy not only low-grade spiritual artifacts, but also mid-grade and high-grade spiritual artifacts.

"Keng!"

When the sword bent to a certain extent, it finally could not bear the weight.

With a metallic sound, the sword broke in two.

The spiritual energy above also poured out completely at this moment.

However, Ye Liuyun didn't care about this.

Instead, looking at the gash revealed at the fracture, his expression became much more understanding.

"There really was something hidden there!"

It seems that I was not wrong.

The magical artifact broke, and Ye Liuyun easily retrieved the hidden item from it.

It was a handkerchief as thin as a cicada's wing, with little characters written on it. If you didn't look closely, you couldn't even make out what was written.

"The Immortal Scripture of Starfall?"

After careful observation, Ye Liuyun finally made out the first few words.

"Is this a secret cultivation technique?"

After realizing that this was a secret cultivation manual.

Ye Liuyun was completely stunned.

Good grief, you're serious!
The effect of wish fulfillment actually came true.

Although the process seemed a bit convoluted, in the end, a skill actually fell into his hands in such an absurd yet reasonable way.

how to say.

That was really quite sudden.

"Wait, what I was thinking of was a cultivation technique that could benefit my current level of cultivation!"

Even the best-quality cultivation techniques would be nothing more than icing on the cake for Ye Liuyun at his current level.

It doesn't have much effect.

As for the Starfall Immortal Scripture, Ye Liuyun had never even heard of it, let alone knew anything about its specific effects.

Think of this.

Without hesitation, Ye Liuyun began to carefully examine the handkerchief in his hand, diligently memorizing all the secrets contained within.

With the support of various talent attributes.

Ye Liuyun's comprehension was already extraordinary.

Even if it's just reading.

One's own internal energy automatically began to circulate in accordance with the contents of the cultivation technique.

As Ye Liuyun read, he felt a sense of ease throughout his body, as if he were in a galaxy, his thoughts completely immersed in the cultivation manual.

Simultaneously.

Unbeknownst to Ye Liuyun, the dark clouds that had covered the night sky were gradually dissipating, and the dim starlight suddenly became incredibly dazzling, as if a galaxy was appearing above the entire Great Qian Imperial City.

Incredibly dazzling and magnificent!

,,,

"This is?"

Even though it was late at night, many people still noticed the changes in the sky.

Both General Yue Xiu of the General's Mansion and Prime Minister Fu Zhengqing looked up at the sky as if they sensed something.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

Inside the palace.

Yan Fuhai was frowning as he looked up at the sky, pondering what was going on.

However, Yun Hu and Guan Bao, who were serving Yan Fuhai, exchanged a glance and immediately realized what was going on, and began to flatter Yan Fuhai.

"Ok?"

Yan Fuhai was still a little taken aback.

Yunhu, on the other hand, spoke directly.

"This extraordinary natural phenomenon must be a sign that His Majesty is blessed with boundless good fortune!"

"That's right! That's right!"

Unlike Yunhu, Guan Bao was not good at speaking, so he could only nod and agree with Yunhu.

"Hahaha!"

Although he knew it was just flattery, Yan Fuhai was still quite happy to hear it and burst into laughter.

"Not bad!"

He nodded in satisfaction. Although he didn't know what the strange phenomenon in the sky meant, Yan Fuhai didn't take it too seriously.

After all, he was now a terrestrial immortal, a legendary being, and Yan Fuhai had absolute confidence in his own power.

As long as the backlash from bad luck is eliminated.

Then wouldn't the Great Qian Dynasty be able to do whatever it wants?
Perhaps some extraordinary treasure has been discovered.

There are indeed some rare treasures in this world that, when they are born, will attract some extraordinary phenomena.

Think of this.

Yan Fuhai looked directly at Yun Hu and Guan Bao.

"You two brothers will take men and investigate to see if anything has appeared within the territory of my Great Qian!"

Since it appeared within the territory of the Great Qian Dynasty, it belongs to me.

Even though Yan Fuhai didn't think there was any magical artifact that could work on him as a terrestrial immortal, there was no need to let others benefit from it for no reason.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Hearing Yan Fuhai give such an instruction.

Yunhu and Guanbao didn't say much, but nodded in response.

Their expressions were delighted, after all, having a task assigned to them meant that they would have another opportunity to demonstrate their abilities in front of Yan Fuhai.

If they don't show off their abilities, how can they expect Yan Fuhai to take notice of them?
,,,

"So beautiful!"

at the same time.

Looking at the starry sky, which was as dazzling as a galaxy, Yan Shuzhu couldn't help but sigh.

This is the first time I've ever seen a night sky like this.

Lu Lan, who was standing guard to the side, couldn't help but nod in agreement; she was indeed very beautiful.

Look back.

Noticing that Lü Lan was staring intently at the night sky, Yan Shuzhu couldn't help but smile.

"Such scenery would be quite a unique experience to see with Ye Liuyun!"

"Yes!"

Upon hearing Yan Shuzhu's words, Lü Lan subconsciously nodded.

This scenery would be wonderful to enjoy with one's beloved.

only.

As soon as she responded, Lü Lan sensed something and turned her head to see Yan Shuzhu's teasing look.

"No, no, no! That's not what I meant!"

He immediately shook his head and denied it.

"All right!"

Seeing Lü Lan like this, Yan Shuzhu smiled and shook her head.

They didn't seem inclined to continue the joke.

"I'm not blind. I can see some things about you and Ye Liuyun!"

Even though Lü Lan usually behaves perfectly normally, she always shows some unusual behavior whenever Ye Liuyun is mentioned.

If it happens once or twice, Yan Shuzhu really won't think much of it.

But after a while, it's noticeably different.

"I,,"

Lü Lan opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something.

But at this point, I didn't know what to say, so all I could do was lower my head and say it.

"Your Majesty, I did not mean to conceal this from you. Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will protect you completely!"

After all, they grew up together since childhood, and Yan Shuzhu's help was indispensable in enabling him to become her apprentice and access so many cultivation resources.

Lü Lan was worried.

Yan Shuzhu thought she would leave directly with Ye Liuyun, so she kept it a secret for the time being.

I've been wanting to find an opportunity to tell you, but I didn't know what kind of opportunity would be suitable, so I've kept it a secret all this time.

"Don't worry, I understand!"

Yan Shuzhu isn't stupid.

Yan Shuzhu could easily see through Lü Lan's little scheme, and naturally wouldn't punish Lü Lan for such a thing.

He shook his head slightly, his expression turning somewhat wistful.

"Actually, I should congratulate you on finding your own happiness. You've been by my side for so long, it's been a hardship for you!"

"Your Majesty, please don't say that!"

Upon hearing this, Lü Lan quickly replied.

"If it weren't for Your Majesty, we wouldn't be where we are today. Please, Your Majesty, don't say that!"

Seeing Lü Lan bowing respectfully.

Yan Shuzhu simply smiled and didn't say anything, then helped Lü Lan up.

"Don't worry, I'll naturally wish you well if you find your Mr. Right. Rest assured, I don't blame you!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Seeing that Yan Shuzhu's expression was normal, Lü Lan felt much more at ease.

Ye Liuyun's image involuntarily appeared in his mind, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.

Seeing Lu Lan like this.

While offering her blessings, Yan Shuzhu also felt a touch of melancholy.

Lü Lan has indeed found her happiness and her ideal husband.

But where is my ideal husband?
Thinking of this, Yan Shuzhu shook her head inwardly. As the emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty, the ruler of a country, all that could accompany her was the Great Qian empire. Where would she find a suitable husband?

With this identity, Yan Shuzhu never imagined that she would have a suitable husband in the future.

Perhaps, this is just my fate!
,,,

This extraordinary phenomenon lasted for just over an hour before slowly dissipating.

Except for a very few individuals.

Most people didn't think much of it, just considering it a pretty night view.

Until the next day!
"Husband? Husband!"

Inside the room, listening to the calls in his ear, Ye Liuyun's thoughts began to come back to normal, and his eyes gradually cleared from a state of confusion.

"Ok?"

Turning around, I saw Xing'er looking somewhat anxious.

"What's wrong?"

"call!"

Seeing that Ye Liuyun was alright, Xing'er's initial worry gradually dissipated, and she felt much more relaxed.

"Thank goodness, my husband, you're alright!"

"What can happen to me?"

Ye Liuyun was a little puzzled. He was just looking at a cultivation manual, what could possibly happen?
Thinking of this, Ye Liuyun looked at the handkerchief in her hand again.

"Ok?"

Ye Liuyun, who had been looking perfectly normal, suddenly frowned.

The reason is that the handkerchief that originally recorded the Starfall Immortal Scripture now has all the words of the manual completely disappeared, and it looks like just an ordinary handkerchief.

Ye Liuyun examined the options carefully for a while, but only managed to get one chance each time.

This is just an ordinary handkerchief, at most as thin as a cicada's wing, but it looks a bit precious.

If it weren't for the fact that I still remembered all the contents of the Starfall Immortal Scripture, everything that just happened would have been nothing but a dream.

Think of this.

Ye Liuyun couldn't help but raise his hand and rub his forehead.

"What's wrong, my husband?"

Seeing Ye Liuyun like this, Xing'er, who had just felt a little relieved, couldn't help but worry again.

"I'm fine!"

Seeing what Xing'er meant, Ye Liuyun casually waved his hand to indicate that he was fine.

"By the way, why aren't you resting yet at this hour!"

Ye Liuyun remembered that he came to the courtyard to cultivate after dinner.

Only an hour or two should have passed in between; it should still be late at night now.

"Night?"

Xing'er was stunned when she heard this.

"Isn't it noon now?"

"noon!"

Sure enough, it was only at this moment that Ye Liuyun noticed the sunlight coming in from outside. His mind was still a bit dazed, and he hadn't noticed it at all.

"Husband, what's wrong with you? Should we call a doctor to come and take a look?"

Xing'er looked worried.

I'm genuinely worried that something might be wrong with Ye Liuyun's health.

Ye Liuyun knew his own body well; apart from feeling a little dizzy, everything else was normal.

"Don't worry, I'm fine. Tell me what's happened from last night until now!"

"this,,"

Although I still have some concerns.

But after hearing Ye Liuyun's question, Xing'er hesitated for a moment before replying thoughtfully.

"It seems there's nothing special. In the morning, the maids in the manor thought my husband was still resting because he hadn't come out. It wasn't until noon that I came to check on him out of concern!"

Ye Liuyun wasn't someone who had never slept in late.

So at first, no one thought anything of it.

They even carefully avoided Ye Liuyun's room, afraid of disturbing him.

However, Xing'er couldn't help but come over to check on Ye Liuyun, who hadn't come out of the room by noon.

"correct!"

Speaking of this, Xing'er thought of something else.

"I heard from the maids in the manor that there was a strange phenomenon in the sky last night, like a dazzling Milky Way, which was very beautiful, but it disappeared after a few hours!"

Speaking of which.

Xing'er felt it was a bit of a pity.

I went to bed early last night and didn't see any strange noises. I only found out about it from the maids' discussion.

"A dazzling starry sky?"

These words caused a thoughtful look to flash across Ye Liuyun's brows.

This phenomenon could not have occurred earlier or later.

Why did it have to appear at this time? Could it be related to the Starfall Immortal Scripture I was reading?
Ye Liuyun's brows furrowed with thought, but then he saw that Xing'er still looked worried, so he put his thoughts aside and smiled at Xing'er.

"I already told you I'm fine. I got so engrossed in my cultivation last night that I forgot the time, that's why I'm like this. Don't worry, I'll be back to normal soon!"

"I'm so glad my husband is alright!"

Hearing Ye Liuyun say that he had become obsessed with cultivation.

That put my mind at ease.

"Alright! I'm a little hungry, have someone prepare some food!"

Those who cultivate themselves naturally have a large appetite.

By noon the next day, Ye Liuyun felt a sudden emptiness in his stomach.

"I'll have someone prepare it right away!"

Upon hearing Ye Liuyun say that he was hungry, Xing'er did not hesitate at all and immediately ran out.

They were afraid that if they were a little late, Ye Liuyun would stay hungry.

"Go slowly!"

Seeing Xing'er like this, Ye Liuyun couldn't help but call out, but Xing'er had already run far away.

He chuckled and shook his head.

Xing'er's feelings were the most sincere and pure. Perhaps among all the women, Xing'er's appearance was not the most outstanding, but she was the one who best suited Ye Liuyun's heart.

"So, the 'culprit' that caused me to lose consciousness during this period is this martial arts technique?"

Looking at the thing in his hand that had turned into an ordinary handkerchief, Ye Liuyun casually put it aside.

The content is already in my mind, so the handkerchief isn't that important anymore.

But such a situation can occur.

In a sense, this also demonstrates the extraordinary nature of this technique!
