Chapter 836

""Starward Sword"? That is merely your illusion."

"I am simply moving, that is all."

Jingliu said, swinging another strike at Miss Keqing.

Although Miss Keqing blocked this strike, she felt quite dejected in her heart.

The ultimate technique she had practiced so painstakingly, Jingliu could catch up to just by moving normally.

Perhaps in Jingliu's eyes, her "Starward Sword" was nothing more than a common movement technique.

"Is this all you have?"

"Since that is the case, it is time for you to die."

Jingliu noticed Miss Keqing's expression and said coldly.

The next moment, the several phantoms she had dispersed in the air converged into one, and all the energy scattered in the afterimages gathered into her sword in an instant.

As Jingliu swung her ice sword, a sharp frost sword aura accompanied by cold killing intent struck toward Miss Keqing from the air.

I'm going to die!

Miss Keqing widened her eyes, her mind completely emptied by the cold killing intent carried within Jingliu's sword aura.

For a moment, she even forgot where she was and who her opponent was.

Memories from the time she could remember to becoming the Yuheng and participating in Liyue's work flashed through Miss Keqing's mind like a revolving lantern.

No, how can I die like this?

I clearly decided to carve out a new path.

Miss Keqing's eyes sharpened, and facing the rapidly approaching sword aura, she gripped her longsword tightly.

As if sensing Miss Keqing's will, the Light Cone "In the Name of the World" she carried on her person simultaneously emitted a dazzling light and violent cold current energy fluctuations.

Just as Miss Keqing intended to take action, the surrounding scenery changed abruptly, turning into a mysterious cosmic space.

"This is... the space for visiting an Aeon?"

Miss Keqing looked up at the huge pillar of light before her, which gradually turned into the train representing "Trailblaze," and for a moment, she felt it was somewhat surreal.

"What appeared is 'Trailblaze,' which means He also approves of my ideas?"

"Or rather, is it Lord Luo Feng who approves of my ideas?"

Miss Keqing turned her head to look behind her; in the distance, Luo Feng seemed to be smiling at her.

………………

"Did she succeed? Well done."

Xiao looked at Miss Keqing directly ahead and nodded in appreciation.

"Phew, thank goodness she succeeded; that just scared me to death."

"Jingliu was completely intending to kill Miss Keqing, wasn't she?"

Hu Tao wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and said.

Qiqi nodded in agreement.

"Although Jingliu displayed intense killing intent, now that I've calmed down and thought about it, Jingliu did indeed hold back."

"Otherwise, Miss Keqing would have been defeated long ago. Let alone having the fortune to witness 'Trailblaze' now."

Miss Ningguang looked up at the phantom of the Astral Express standing before Miss Keqing, then looked at Luo Feng beside her.

"What Lord Luo Feng said about Miss Keqing embarking on the Path of Trailblaze has come true."

Miss Ningguang said.

"Mm, Miss Keqing did well."

Luo Feng nodded with a smile.

He was already guessing whose template he could obtain through the lottery this time.

"Lord Luo Feng guessed that Xiao would embark on the Path of The Hunt, and predicted that Miss Keqing would embark on the Path of Trailblaze."

"Then, could you tell me which Path opened by an Aeon I can embark on?"

Miss Ningguang asked curiously.

"You are so skilled at trading, you'll probably embark on the Path of Trade, hehe."

Luo Feng laughed, rubbing his chin.

"Lord Luo Feng is truly humorous; I think there shouldn't be such a Path in the universe."

Miss Ningguang shook her head slightly and smiled.

Luo Feng raised his hand and patted Miss Ningguang's shoulder:

"Don't ask me which Path you can embark on; you should ask your own heart."

"This question can only be answered by your heart; I cannot help you with that."

If a person's heart cannot resonate with a certain Path, no matter what, they cannot embark on that Path; this is the rule.

Of course, Elation is the exception.

"Ask my heart... that is something I can do."

"However, to embark on a certain Path, one also needs an opportunity."

"I wonder if Lord Luo Feng can also help me create an opportunity, just like you created one for Miss Keqing."

Miss Ningguang asked Luo Feng with a smile on her face.

Luo Feng: "Create an opportunity... are you willing to pay the bill, Miss Ningguang?"

Miss Ningguang: "Of course, what would Lord Luo Feng like me to use for payment?"

Luo Feng: "What if I said I wanted you to pay with yourself?"

Miss Ningguang's lips curled up slightly, and she laughed:

"Is this a confession? If the object is someone like Lord Luo Feng, I think I could consider it."

Luo Feng shrugged and laughed:

"I was just thinking that if my train could have a train employee like Miss Ningguang, it might be quite nice."

"However, if we are talking about a relationship between a man and a woman, an excellent lady like Miss Ningguang does indeed fit my aesthetic very well........"

Miss Ningguang: "It is truly my honor to hear Lord Luo Feng say that."

Luo Feng nodded at Miss Ningguang and said:

"The Luofu Xianzhou is currently in the midst of a storm."

"If Miss Ningguang wants an opportunity, you just need to place yourself in the midst of that storm."

"I believe that with your talent, you will find an opportunity to embark on a certain Path."

"If you seize this opportunity through me by then, why not gift me your pipe as a reward?"

Miss Ningguang looked at the pipe in her hand:

"Does Lord Luo Feng want my pipe? If so, once we return to reality, I will gift it to you as a token of gratitude."

As the words fell, the cosmic space collapsed with a boom, and everyone returned to the real space.

………………

Luofu Xianzhou.

Miss Keqing's eyes sharpened, and she naturally executed "Starward Sword."

However, this time, her speed was more than one level faster.

Seeing Jingliu's sword aura about to arrive, Miss Keqing stopped, and the several afterimages left in the air suddenly converged upon her body,

causing all the energy carried by the afterimages to concentrate on the three-foot blade in her hand.

At the same time, the light of Trailblaze enveloped Miss Keqing's entire body, and the Light Cone "In the Name of the World" emitted an even purer cold current energy.

When the energy condensed to its peak, Miss Keqing swung her longsword fiercely, just like Jingliu had done earlier.

A sword aura wrapped in lightning and cold current energy swept past rapidly, actually directly annihilating and shattering the sword aura swung by Jingliu.

"Oh!"

Jingliu looked at the strike Miss Keqing had swung, a look of slight surprise appearing on her face.

However, her expression quickly returned to coldness.

She took a light step forward and swept past Miss Keqing's side.

Before Miss Keqing could do anything, she had already been frozen inside a block of ice.

【Xiangling: Oh no, Jingliu killed Miss Keqing!】

【Dottore: Hehe, what an interesting scene.】

【Tartaglia: The strike she swung forward was stronger than any strike she had swung before; could it be that she has embarked on a Path?】
