Pei Jinye turned his head to look at the man and woman.
The previously encountered tall and skinny man whispered to him, “Friend, they are from Southern Continent Nagano Martial University. The man on the left is Gongsun Zhengjin, and the woman on the right is even more formidable, ranking second on the elite list of Nagano Martial University. Nagano and our Central State have always been at odds. Why don’t we put aside our previous grievances for now and join forces momentarily? Otherwise, we’ll only make things easier for them.”
Pei Jinye remained silent.
Almost at the same time.
The man and woman from Nagano both looked towards Pei Jinye’s back.
The skinny man pressed close to the mountain wall, peering cautiously.
A young female swordsman with an indifferent face slowly walked out, a pitch-black Xuan Iron Sword strapped to her back.
Seeing her appearance.
The previously unconcerned man and woman from Nagano both suddenly took on a serious expression.
Even the skinny man appeared solemn, cursing his luck inwardly that another great being had arrived.
The female swordsman walked forward with an indifferent expression, ignoring the eyes around her, and stepped towards the Lotus Platform. However, as she passed by Pei Jinye, she suddenly stopped.
Her gaze fell on a segment of a bracelet that was slightly visible on Pei Jinye’s wrist.
The indifferent expression on her face finally seemed to change a bit.
“You carry a sword intent on you that I’m quite familiar with…”
Pei Jinye’s expression shifted slightly.
The sword intents he had come in contact with included one from the Jiang family’s Shenxiao and the other was from his economical master’s “Sword Decides Life or Death”.
He hadn’t expected that despite being suppressed by his bracelet, it could still be perceived by her.
The female swordsman let out a sigh, her indifferent brows furrowing into an arc as she muttered, “Troublesome.”
She glanced at the Lotus Platform again.
“Three months ago, I glimpsed a thread of destiny and finally found a piece of the Heavenly Machine he left behind. Truth be told, I’m not sure what to do with it… whether to destroy it or let it continue to exist in this world.”
The expressions of everyone present changed slightly.
“Is the legend true?” the skinny man exclaimed in surprise.
The long-haired woman from Nagano also narrowed her eyes and said, “The rumor claims that the Lord Lotus Island found an earth-shattering secret with the help of a Cursed Object… I’m more curious, there was a rumor that it was Star Ring who killed him, I wonder if that’s true or not.”
She said this while staring at the female swordsman’s expression, only to be disappointed as the swordsman maintained her troubled look.
For some reason, the swordsman turned her head and suddenly looked at Pei Jinye, “Do you want this opportunity?”
Pei Jinye calmly asked, “Would the predecessor be willing to give it to me?”
“I have no need for it.” The female swordsman stroked her chin, “The sword intent on you gives me a sense of an old acquaintance. Maybe I know someone in your family. For old times’ sake, I should take care.”
However, the two from Nagano abruptly changed expression, and Gongsun Zhengjin angrily said, “Everyone has a right to it, why should you be the one to decide?”
No sooner had the words left his mouth.
Two sounds of a longsword being drawn and sheathed rang out nearly at the same time.
In an instant.
Gongsun Zhengjin, who had just been discontented, spurted blood in front of him and was sent flying back violently.
The area suddenly fell into complete silence.
The movements of those lurking at the entrance also quieted down at once.
Storms raged within Pei Jinye.
Being the closest to the female swordsman, he hadn’t noticed when she had drawn her sword; her speed was so fast it surpassed the limits of his sight.
No wonder those two from Nagano were so wary of her!
“Cultivation is not easy, everyone please leave. I’m taking this item.” The female swordsman’s voice was indifferently firm.
The young woman from Nagano hurried to help Gongsun Zhengjin up.
“Let’s go.”
Pei Jinye surprisingly noticed that the other party had an Ancient Coin, which, when thrown towards the light screen, would automatically allow one to leave.
As the people from Nagano retreated, aside from the female swordsman and Pei Jinye, only the tall and skinny man was left. Being stared at by the swordsman, he awkwardly smiled and approached the light screen, also tossing an Ancient Coin and swiftly leaving.
“Friends outside the door, if you have the courage, why not come in and test my sword.”
Soon.
Sounds of escape came from outside the door.
The female swordsman withdrew her gaze and looked again at Pei Jinye, her indifferent face with a hint of curiosity, “The sword intent on you…”
But before she could ask her question, she spoke to herself once more, “No matter, who it belongs to… the vast ocean turns to mulberry fields, things and people change, they are all just passing clouds.”
She stood in front of the Lotus Platform.
With her back to Pei Jinye.
The black longsword she carried on her back vibrated faintly.
“This causality is significant, so I intend to destroy it. But if you want it, I will fulfill your wish. Just think carefully, are you ready to bear this causality?”
“May I ask the predecessor, was the Lord Lotus Island truly at the Manifested Saint Realm?” Pei Jinye urgently asked.
If it was useful to him, he naturally couldn’t give up…
As for causality, with his myriad identities, sacrificing one would suffice.
“Yes.” The female swordsman’s indifferent face showed a faint smile, “It seems you also want to follow the path of a warrior… This path… try walking it, maybe it holds another fate.”
“Do you know what the Heavenly Machine of the Lord Lotus Island was?” Pei Jinye asked, puzzled.
“I do not know. There were many rumors at the time of his death… Probably discovered something extraordinary, otherwise, it wouldn’t have brought about a deathly disaster.” The female swordsman seriously looked at him, “Have you thought about what you will do?”
Pei Jinye returned her serious gaze, “Kill!”
The swordsman was slightly taken aback.
Then the smile on her face became more pronounced.
