Arknights: Studying medicine can't save Terra

Why not say we should share the good fortune?

"Same, same."

Zuo Xuanliao smiled and revealed an ordinary iron sword that he had been hiding behind his back.

Wei Yanwu had initially been somewhat expectant, but upon seeing this sword, he immediately lost his composure:

"Where did you get this piece of junk? What kind of peerless sword is this?"

"I named this sword the Peerless Sword."

"*Longmen swear words*!"

Chapter 880 Chen: This isn't my uncle, I don't know him!

A convoy entered Yumen City.

At this time of year, when Yumen and Longmen are exchanging supplies, the number of people coming and going at the Yumen checkpoint is enormous, which wouldn't normally be considered a big deal.

However, the entry of this convoy into the city still attracted the attention of many people.

There was no other reason than that the procession welcoming the motorcade at the city gate was simply too extravagant.

General Zuo Xuanliao of Yumen, Governor Wei Yanwu of Longmen, Grandmaster Chongyue, and several officials from both cities arrived together, just to wait for the convoy to enter the city safely.

Even with the Yumen soldiers forming a barrier to keep the onlookers at a distance and prevent them from hearing Zuo Xuanliao and the others' conversation, the crowd still did not intend to leave, and they all stood on tiptoe to look at this grand scene.

Surrounded by onlookers, the convoy came to a stop. The drivers' legs were a little weak. The first thing they did after getting out of the car was to respectfully open the back door and let the "ancestors" inside get out.

Du Yaoye jumped out of the car excitedly, basking in everyone's gaze, and looked around curiously.

Before she could even get excited for a few seconds, Lao Li and Wu You quickly stepped forward and pulled the tiger girl away from the limelight.

Following the three people, three beautiful figures also got out of the car and stood in the center of everyone's sight.

Chen Congling left Xi's side and obediently returned to Wei Yanwu's side.

With a composed expression, he smiled and greeted the welcoming crowd.

"Brother, General Zuo, and Lord Wei, how have you been?"

"Your sister, and Xiaoxi, you're both here."

Chongyue was overjoyed to see his two younger sisters, but he quickly noticed something was missing.

He carefully examined the convoy and, finding no one else inside the vehicles, asked in bewilderment:

"What about the rest?"

"I'm leaving," Ling said calmly.

"They're gone?" Chongyue asked, somewhat bewildered.

“We just encountered a group of Shan Hai people on the road who intended to kill the messenger of the natural disaster,” Ling explained. “Nian took action to intimidate them, and then Qi Yan and his sister and Nian took those people under their command, saying that they wanted to sever all ties with us and that we would be enemies if we met again.”

Wei Yanwu: "...It's over, it's all over, this guy has betrayed us again."

Zuo Xuanliao pondered for a moment, then hesitated and said:

"The Mountain and Sea Clan has actually made a comeback, but according to the rumors about Qi Yan, his joining the Mountain and Sea Clan should be a good thing for us."

Wei Yanwu, as the contestant with the most experience with Qi Yan present, acted as an advisor and analyzed the situation carefully:

"It's a foregone conclusion that the Mountain and Sea Clan will not have a good end, but before they are played to death, Yumen will have to face the Mountain and Sea Clan who have Qi Yan and Miss Nian."

With the Grand Tutor's reminder, our side currently only has a Grandmaster and his two sisters as equals, while the Mountain and Sea Clan already possesses more than five exceptionally powerful warriors.

"More than five?"

Zuo Xuanliao's expression changed slightly: "What exactly did the Grand Tutor reveal to you in his letter?"

“Oh, the Grand Tutor didn’t tell you? Then I won’t tell you either.” Wei Yanwu immediately switched sides.

He turned to look at Chen, rubbing his hands together and asked with a smile, "I heard you're getting quite close to Qi Yan now. Do you have any connections to introduce me to the Mountain and Sea Clan?"

List:"……"

She regretted rushing over to acknowledge Wei Yanwu. If she had known Wei Yanwu would be like this, she would have preferred to jump off the train halfway rather than let everyone know about her relationship with Wei Yanwu.

Seeing Wei Yanwu keep winking at him, Chen said, somewhat nervously:

"I had no choice. I originally wanted to stay with Qi Yan to prevent him from causing trouble, but he threw me out."

"It's over, I still failed to latch onto a powerful figure!" Wei Yanwu said in anguish.

Chen's eyes twitched twice. He moved silently, choosing to return to Ling's side and look around, but not at his uncle.

Zuo Xuanliao watched Wei Yanwu's performance with a dark face, knowing that Wei Yanwu was still resentful and deliberately trying to disgust him because he had been forcibly kept there.

He ignored Wei Yanwu's banter and looked at Ling seriously, saying:

"Did Lord Qi Yan reveal any information before he left?"

"There really is one."

Ling's words rekindled hope in Zuo Xuanliao's heart.

Under Zuo Xuanliao's gaze, Ling turned to look at his elder brother: "Qi Yan said that as long as Yumen throws you out, this storm can be resolved in no time."

"See? I told you so!"

Before Chongyue could react, Wei Yanwu clapped his hands forcefully to claim credit.

Chen finally couldn't help but glance at Wei Yanwu, who looked completely at ease.

Chongyue glanced at Wei Yanwu, who immediately became obedient.

Zuo Xuanliao also glanced at Wei Yanwu, who glared back at him.

Zuo Xuanliao: "..."

"Alright, everyone, stop making a scene. There are still people watching outside."

Chongyue quickly stepped in as a peacemaker: "Moreover, I trust the character of that Lord Qi Yan. He probably already has his own plans. Let's just wait and see."

Zuo Xuanliao frowned and said, "Grandmaster, we have never actually met Qi Yan, and now he is deliberately avoiding us..."

"Alright, I trust my sister more. She won't really let anything happen to Yumen this year," Chongyue continued to reassure her.

Zuo Xuanliao nodded with some doubt, knowing that the area near the city gate was not a place for detailed discussions. He could only suppress his worries and begin to greet everyone as the host.

In Yumen City, the lavish welcoming procession in front of the city gate quickly spread, becoming a topic of conversation among the people.

Among them, the most heated discussions were held in teahouses and restaurants, places where all sorts of people mingle.

Even the shop assistants who were tied up with work could gradually piece together the general idea from the various versions of the rumors after listening for a while.

In a sizable restaurant, as a waiter was listening intently and refining his vision of how to greet guests at the city gate, a figure walked through the restaurant's main entrance.

The waiter quickly suppressed his gossipy nature and stepped forward, about to speak, but was stunned by the appearance of the person in front of him.

The newcomer was a robust woman, tall and strong, with a steady gait. Her body was as solid as a wall, imposing and dignified. Her shoulders were like double-door refrigerators, her eyes shone like cold stars, and her eyebrows were as dark as if painted with lacquer.

"Miss... young lady... would you like to stay at an inn or have a meal?"

The waiter was so startled that he stammered for a moment, but after looking closely, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The woman in front of him was not actually very muscular; her slender waist and meager breasts confirmed this.

The reason it looks so intimidating is entirely due to the opponent's exaggerated shoulder armor, which props up the cloak behind them, creating this visual illusion.

"A cup of tea, please."

The woman spoke indifferently and casually found an empty seat to sit down.

The waiter nodded repeatedly and ran to the kitchen to notify them to place the order.

The woman sat in her seat as if in a trance, silently listening to the chatter of the customers around her, thus judging the situation in the city.

But soon, before she could figure out what had happened at the city gate, a figure with hurried steps walked in from outside the gate and headed straight for the woman.

“He’s here and has already taken control of a group of brothers. He’s up to no good. Try to avoid him.”

After delivering his rapid-fire reminder, the man immediately turned and left.

The woman lowered her pale red eyes slightly, pondered for a moment, and then, without trying to be strong, got up and left the restaurant.

Not long after she left, the waiter came over with a pot of freshly brewed tea.

Looking at the empty seats, the waiter was a little confused:

"Where did this girl go? Did I waste my time brewing this tea?"

Just as he was struggling with this decision, four more figures strode into the store.

"Waiter, bring me a pot of tea."

The white-haired Luper, who was at the head of the group, arrogantly waved his hand and ordered as soon as he entered.

The waiter blinked and saw that the white-haired Lupo was dressed plainly and was not from a wealthy family. His two female companions were quite beautiful, but they did not have the arrogance of those rich young ladies. Moreover, one of the Lupo girls was very likable.

As for the last guy, dressed like a wandering swordsman with a servile attitude, he was simply categorized as a lackey by the waiter.

After determining the other party's approximate identity, the waiter tentatively asked while holding the teapot:

"Sir, I happen to have a pot of freshly brewed tea here, and no one has touched it. How about you buy it at half price?"

"You're selling me half-price tea when someone else orders it?"

Qi Yan had just sat down when he heard the waiter's words. He immediately raised his eyebrows and slammed his hand on the table.

The table made a dull thud and almost fell apart on the spot.

The waiter was so startled that he didn't even notice the other person had been startled as well. He quickly bowed and apologized.

"I was being presumptuous, please forgive me, sirs. I will brew you tea again and also serve you a side dish of snacks."

Qi Yan steadied himself on the table and looked at the waiter with a puzzled expression:

"You've got it wrong. I'm just happy. Now put this half-price tea down right now, or I'll bite anyone who tries to take it from me! Even a grandmaster would get a taste of my stick!"

The waiter was both surprised and delighted. He immediately put down the teapot, and at the same time, he lowered his voice to remind him:

"Sir, please don't say that. The Grandmaster has a very high reputation in Yumen. Be careful that others don't overhear and cause trouble."

"Hilarious! How could I, the once-in-a-millennium handsome man of the Extreme Realm, be afraid?" Qi Yan shouted loudly. "This time, I, the Extreme Realm, have come to Yumen to challenge Grandmaster Chongyue and take away his empty title of Grandmaster!"

Upon hearing this, the bustling restaurant fell into a deathly silence, with countless eyes fixed on Qi Yan.

The waiter's heart skipped a beat.

He could foresee that within half a day, the news that a guy named Jijing had challenged a Grandmaster would spread throughout the entire Jade Gate!

Chapter 881 The Mountain and Sea Clan Worth the Price of a Pot of Tea

Noticing the hostile gazes of many people in the store, the waiter took a deep breath.

He steeled himself and approached Qi Yan, lowering his voice to gently persuade him:

“Brother Jijing, you can’t say things like that carelessly. It’s dangerous. Besides, the Grandmaster is a very nice person. You don’t need to provoke him for the sake of empty fame.”

"It's not just about empty fame; we're here this time also because of some old grudges."

Qi Yan looked indignant and pointed at Nian and his younger sister, introducing them: "This girl with red-streaked hair is called Tao Jinniang, and the one next to her is my sister, Qin Liu."

The three of us came to Yumen not only to find the Grandmaster, but also to find two guys named Wu You and Lao Li. We're sworn enemies!

Year:"……"

Qi Lin: "..."

The second shopkeeper: "..."

Looking at Qi Yan's young appearance, the waiter stammered for a long time before finally letting out a sigh.

As a man from Yumen with a strong sense of martial virtue, he knew very well that many grudges in the martial world were difficult to resolve. Since the other party had already said so much, he could no longer persuade them.

However, before leaving, he still gave him a word of advice: "Brother Jijing, even if you want to challenge a Grandmaster, it's best to do so openly and honestly, and not resort to any underhanded tricks."

The Grandmaster has a very good personality; as the challenger, your life is guaranteed.

“I understand that.” Qi Yan had a knowing look on his face. “Martial artists can’t joke around with sneak attacks; their body’s reflexes are faster than their thoughts.”

"……no."
