Chapter 308

【In the end, my mentor was framed and expelled, and sent far away to the Zhuming Luofu Xianzhou.】

【I was also implicated by this and had to leave the Luofu.】

【And the person responsible for arbitrating this matter and approving the exile order was none other than General Jing Yuan himself.】

Hearing Yanqing: "Ah? How is this possible?!"

March 7th: "That's right, how could it be General Jing Yuan?"

March 7th: "Miss Miss Lingsha didn't make a mistake, right?"

Miss Lingsha: "Hehe, I naturally wouldn't slander General Jing Yuan casually."

Miss Lingsha: "Whether it's true or false, the General naturally knows."

Stelle: "So General, did you really do this?"

Stelle: "Do you have moments of senility too??"

Stelle: "This doesn't match my understanding of you!"

Dan Heng: "Perhaps, there is a hidden story in this?"

Jing Yuan: "Ha, I can hear that Miss Miss Lingsha has quite a grudge against me."

Jing Yuan: "That's right, thirty years ago, it was indeed my order that exiled your mentor."

Miss Lingsha: "So General, I dare to ask, why did you do this?"

Miss Lingsha: "You clearly knew that my mentor was wronged, yet you still did it."

Furina: "Uh... could it be that because of this grudge, Miss Miss Lingsha is here to seek revenge now?"

Mualani: "Eh... I think it's possible..."

Mualani: "However, I always feel that there is a deep misunderstanding."

Jing Yuan: "Regarding this question, there is indeed a hidden story."

Jing Yuan: "And it also involves some other things."

Jing Yuan: "I can only say, Miss Miss Lingsha, there are some things that your mentor might not have told you completely."

Miss Lingsha: "Hmm? What does the General mean?"

Jing Yuan: "How about this, when you really come to the Luofu to take office, you can come to the General's Mansion to find me."

Jing Yuan: "At that time, I will answer the questions you have had all along."

Miss Lingsha: "That would be fine, then I will thank the General for now."

Stelle: "General, why are you being so mysterious?"

Stelle: "Can't you say it here?"

March 7th: "I understand, this must involve some Luofu Xianzhou secrets!"

Lumine: "Hmm, if that's the case, then it really can't be said casually."

Lumine: "But I'm still quite curious..."

Silver Wolf: "Don't rush, since the General doesn't intend to say it in the live broadcast room."

Silver Wolf: "Maybe we can see this scene in the video?"

The video continues.

【Wh-what?】

Hearing Yanqing heard Miss Lingsha's words,

And was shocked.

【You heard me right.】

【The situation of the Alchemy Commission is rotten to this point, and those who should be held responsible, besides the Sanctus Medicus rebels, also include the Divine Diviner General.】

【Oh my, why has Lord Hearing Yanqing's face changed?】

【Rest assured, I understand the principle of being in a position and being unable to help oneself, and I will never hold any resentment towards the General.】

【After all, for adults of our age, so-called personal grudges are already a very luxurious thing.】

Stelle: "Look at how scared the kid is."

Stelle: "His face is white!"

March 7th: "This just shows that Hearing Yanqing is close to the General!"

Miss Lingsha: "Oh my, sorry, sorry, I didn't mean to."

Hu Tao: "For adults of our age?"

Hu Tao: "I'm curious how old Miss Miss Lingsha is."

Xiangling: "Hu Tao, it's very impolite to ask a girl's age!"

Mualani: "Miss Miss Lingsha just mentioned thirty years ago."

Mualani: "So conservatively estimated, she must be forty or fifty?"

Stelle: "Looking at Miss Miss Lingsha's old-fashioned appearance, she must be at least sixty or seventy!"

Kachina: "Sixty or seventy?!"

Kachina: "That could be my grandmother!"

Furina: "For long-lived species, you can't calculate it like that, right?"

Furina: "For long-lived species, one or two hundred years old might still be young?"

Miss Lingsha: "Hahaha, I didn't expect you all to be so curious about my age."

Miss Lingsha: "But I can only say, compared to the General, I am indeed young."

Fu Xuan: "That's right, the General has almost become an old antique."

Jing Yuan: "Old antique?"

Jing Yuan: "Not really, I still feel very young myself."

Stelle: "Are you young at heart?"

March 7th: "But he doesn't look old either?"

March 7th: "This makes me have to talk about General General Huaiyan."

March 7th: "How old is he to be so old?"

The video continues.

【Sister Miss Lingsha, you're finally back! I've been waiting for a long time!】

In the spare time of everyone talking,

A boisterous voice suddenly sounded.

And then, everyone saw Miss Yunli walking over at some point.

【Miss Yunli, why aren't you staying with your grandfather, but running to the Alchemy Commission to wander around?】

【It just so happens, taking this opportunity, let me introduce you, this Lord Hearing Yanqing is...】

March 7th: "It's over, Miss Miss Lingsha, don't introduce them!"

March 7th: "If these two meet here, and General Jing Yuan and General General Huaiyan aren't around, they're going to fight completely!"

Stelle: "Don't panic!"

Stelle: "With me here!"

Stelle: "I will clap and cheer!!"

March 7th: "Eh??"

March 7th: "What do you mean by clapping and cheering, hey!"

Silver Wolf: "Young people, it's normal to have a temper."

Silver Wolf: "It's good to have a fight."

Firefly: "But... what if they get anxious and fight?"

Firefly: "Then maybe they'll get hurt."

Boothill: "Hahaha, isn't it a coincidence?"

Boothill: "Isn't the Alchemy Commission next to us for medical treatment?"

Furina: "I think they might not necessarily fight, right?"

Furina: "Isn't Miss Miss Lingsha here?"

Furina: "She should be able to handle them, right?"

Miss Lingsha: "It's a pity, my martial arts are weak, I don't think I have the ability to do that..."

The video continues.

"What a small world…"

Before Ling Sha could finish, Yun Li glared at Hearing Yanqing with ill intent.

"You! It's time you returned the sword you stole from me!"

Seeing this, Hearing Yanqing's anger flared even higher.

"I understand. Let's skip the introductions."

Ling Sha observed the two of them, poised for a fight,

and immediately understood the situation.

She stopped trying to make introductions.

What followed was a sharp exchange of words between Hearing Yanqing and Yun Li.

"How do I run into you everywhere? Are you following me?"

Yun Li took the initiative, firing the first question at Hearing Yanqing.

"Hmph. I have actual business to attend to, unlike you, Miss Yun Li, who has time to stroll the streets but no time to return a sword."

Hearing Yanqing abandoned his previous straightforward approach,

and began to retort with a sarcastic tone.

"My grandfather once said, 'Like master, like sword.'"

"I've had a heart-to-heart with your sword."

"It told me you are heavy-hearted and full of idle worries; you hesitate to draw when you should, and you can't hold onto it when you shouldn't…"

"Looking at you now, I think the sword was right."

"Don't blame me for taking your flying sword; your heart isn't in it."

Yun Li stood with her hands on her hips, spouting what sounded to Hearing Yanqing like pure nonsense.

"Do you think I'd believe your made-up lies?"

"I've shown restraint because I respect you as a guest from the Zhuming, but you show no appreciation."

"Does the Zhuming Luofu Xianzhou not have the common sense that one should return what they've taken?"

Hearing Yanqing crossed his arms and snorted coldly.

"Look at this flying sword. Even if I returned it to you now, it wouldn't take long before someone else snatched it away."

"You've heard the Cloud Knight doctrine: never let your weapon leave your hand, right?"

"I can return it to you now, of course, but the battlefield is a different story."

"Sigh, how pitiful this flying sword must be."

Stelle: "Why are you two just flapping your gums?"

Stelle: "A war of words is fine, but it's nowhere near as exciting as real blades!"

March 7th: "Hey! And you're supposed to be Hearing Yanqing's teacher!"

March 7th: "Why are you just pouring oil on the fire?"

Stelle: "What do you know? If they have a spar, not only will it clear up misunderstandings, but they can also exchange martial arts."

Stelle: "This is clearly a win-win situation!"

Paimon: "But what if they get hurt?"

Stelle: "They're martial artists; minor injuries don't matter. As for major ones…"

Stelle: "We're all here watching, aren't we? We won't let them go too far."

General Feixiao: "Hmm, well said."

General Feixiao: "Sparring more often is indeed beneficial."

General Feixiao: "Of course, there's no need to let it get heated to the point of real malice."

The video continues.

"Hmph, you don't have to return it, because I will take back the sword I lost myself!!"

Hearing Yanqing couldn't take it anymore,

and prepared to let his strength do the talking.

"Is this the Wardance?"

"Good, let's fight!"

Seeing this scene,

Stelle, who had been watching the drama, looked excited.

"Dan Heng, who do you think is stronger?"

"Don't blame me, I'm genuinely curious."

March 7th asked Dan Heng out of curiosity.

"…"

"Get ready to pull them apart."

Dan Heng was speechless, then warned the others.

Stelle: "March, aren't you just as curious?"

Stelle: "And you say I'm pouring oil on the fire?"

March 7th: "I… I just have simple curiosity!"

March 7th: "That's normal, right?"

Furina: "So, who is actually stronger?"

Furina: "I'm very curious about that too!"

General Feixiao: "Hard to say. We can only make a rough judgment after they've traded blows."

Hu Tao: "So, it seems a battle is unavoidable?"

Ling Sha: "Not necessarily. There are many ways to compete!"

Ling Sha: "Why must you choose such a hostile method?"

Ling Sha: "If either of you gets hurt, as a physician, I'll be heartbroken~"

The video continues.

"Today is my first day on duty at the Alchemy Commission. Seeing blood on blades is not a good omen for a fresh start."

At this point, Ling Sha, who had been watching the show, finally spoke up.

"Fine, if Sister Ling Sha doesn't like it, I won't draw my blade here."

Hearing Ling Sha say this, Yun Li

had to temporarily abandon the idea of sparring with Hearing Yanqing.

"That's not what I meant."

"You've already drawn your swords; if I don't let you compete, neither of you will be happy, right?"

"I heard from the Commission's reports that there are still mara-struck monsters lurking around the Alchemy Commission's realm-ship."

"I suppose my predecessors left behind quite a mess."

"If you want to determine who is better, why must you point your blades at each other?"

Stelle: "High, truly high!"

Stelle: "As expected of someone who can be the Head of the Alchemy Commission!"

Stelle: "This wisdom is no joke!"

Yun Li: "Sister Ling Sha, just say you're looking for free labor!"

Yun Li: "Why all the roundabout ways?"

Ling Sha: "That's where you're wrong."

Ling Sha: "I'm not looking for labor."

Ling Sha: "I just can't bear to see you two pointing blades at each other!"

Jing Yuan: "Hmm, not bad. Miss Ling Sha's move is excellent."

Jing Yuan: "It clears out the mara-struck while letting these two determine who is better."

Jing Yuan: "I highly approve!"

General Feixiao: "Hmm, killing mara-struck is the proper duty for people of our standing."

General Feixiao: "Though… it does lack a bit of spectacle."

General Feixiao: "No matter… they'll have to fight at the Wardance eventually, right?"
