Chapter 606
Miss Sushang: "But after I sent the photos to the elders of the Cloud Knights, they all said it definitely wasn't, and even asked if I was still half-asleep."
Luo Feng: "Perhaps those elders' discernment is lacking. Why not send the photos of the bonsai to someone with sufficient discernment?"
Miss Sushang: "Someone with sufficient discernment?"
Luo Feng: "For example, General Jing Yuan."
Miss Sushang: "You're joking. How could I possibly have the General's contact number?"
Luo Feng: "Or perhaps the General's guard, Yanqing?"
Miss Sushang: "I do know of him, but I don't have a way to contact him either."
Luo Feng: "Doesn't your friend Guinaifen have Yanqing's sword? Perhaps you could ask her if she knows."
Miss Sushang: "Right! I'll ask Guinaifen right now!"
Luo Feng smiled and turned to look at the entrance of the Astral Express.
"Of course, perhaps you could also ask this person and see what she thinks of my bonsai."
Luo Feng said.
"Who?"
Miss Sushang looked over, puzzled.
Luo Feng raised the corners of his mouth and silently activated his permissions, causing the doors of the Astral Express to open automatically.
Standing at the entrance of the train was a beautiful woman with light blue-grey hair,
wearing a black blindfold with a silver moon pattern.
Just by standing there, she seemed to bring a wave of cold, biting air.
"Is this person a Luofu Xianzhou native? Mr. Luo Feng, do you know her?"
Cloud-Retaining Adeptus asked curiously, looking up and down at the woman, whose style of dress was somewhat similar to Liyue attire.
"I know of her, but she doesn't know me."
Luo Feng shrugged, watching with interest as the woman walked into the train.
Hearing Luo Feng's words, the woman looked over: "You know me?"
Luo Feng nodded slightly:
"The famous Jingliu of the Luofu Xianzhou High-Cloud Quintet; naturally, I have heard of your name."
"Speaking of which, what interest do you have in visiting my train?"
Miss Sushang: "Jingliu of the High-Cloud Quintet? Is that for real?!"
Miss Sushang stared intently at Jingliu, trying hard to find similarities between her and the Jingliu described by the storytellers.
And indeed, she found quite a few commonalities.
For a moment, Miss Sushang was both surprised and excited.
She was a great fan of the stories of the High-Cloud Quintet, and even more so of the swordswoman Jingliu.
That Jingliu would appear near the Luofu Xianzhou did not surprise Luo Feng.
After all, Luo Sha had already been here.
Luo Feng had reason to believe that Jingliu had learned of the Stellaron and the Abundance miracle inside the Astral Express from Luo Sha, and thus wanted to investigate.
Luo Sha could not expose himself yet, so there were many questions he could not ask and actions he could not take.
Jingliu, however, had fewer restrictions.
Even if she were exposed, it would only mean appearing before Jing Yuan's eyes a little earlier.
"I just saw the Astral Express of the Trailblaze and came to take a look."
"I didn't expect you to take the initiative to open the train doors and invite me in."
"Aren't you worried that I might be a dangerous person who would destroy your Astral Express?"
Jingliu asked, looking at Luo Feng with interest.
"Is it really just curiosity about my train?"
"Besides, I have a bit of strength; I believe I can protect my train."
Luo Feng said.
"Is that so..."
Jingliu looked up slightly, gazing at Luo Feng's position.
The next moment, her figure suddenly vanished from where she stood.
"She disappeared?"
Cloud-Retaining Adeptus was stunned for a moment. She turned to look at Luo Feng, only to witness a scene that left her extremely astonished.
Jingliu had somehow produced a single-edged sword that appeared to be made of ice,
and was pressing the cold, gleaming tip against Luo Feng's throat.
"Presumptuous! Get away from Mr. Luo Feng!"
Cloud-Retaining Adeptus snapped back to reality and shouted, rushing toward Jingliu at top speed.
Although she understood that Luo Feng likely did not need her help,
this did not mean she would allow someone to hold a sword to the throat of the man who had helped the Geo Archon embark on his Path.
Hearing the fluctuations caused by Cloud-Retaining Adeptus's movement,
Jingliu flicked the blade in her hand once toward the Adeptus.
Immediately, a wave of ice swept toward Cloud-Retaining Adeptus.
In an instant, the imposing Cloud-Retaining Adeptus was frozen solid within a block of ice.
【Ganyu: Master!】
【Xiao: Cloud-Retaining Adeptus... defeated?!】
【Xiangling: Wh-what happened?! Why did they suddenly start fighting?
Mr. Luo Feng is being held at swordpoint, and Cloud-Retaining Adeptus has been frozen?!】
【Lady: That hateful woman! If only I were by Mr. Luo Feng's side right now!】
【Dottore: To instantly freeze Cloud-Retaining Adeptus, who has already embarked on a Path,
this swordswoman named Jingliu is quite extraordinary.】
【Keqing: The famous High-Cloud Quintet...】
【Shenhe: Master, will she be alright?】
【Dottore: That depends on whether Mr. Luo Feng is willing to provide her with security services.】
【Ganyu: He... he should be, right?】
【Alice: Not only will he, but Luo Feng will likely teach this Jingliu, who dared to draw a sword on him, a lesson.
I still remember the scene where Pera was forcibly stripped of her stockings for not listening to Luo Feng.】
