Chapter 231: Ten Years of Sharpening a Sword, Showing the Frosty Blade Before the Monarch

Zhen Ciyun didn't know that Zhang Gui was pondering the origin of her cultivation technique.

Seeing him thoughtful and no longer struggling, she began to calculate his fate in a soft voice,

"Fate cannot be fully believed, nor can it not be believed.

The general trend needs to be fought for, but the 'good and bad fortune' in small places can be turned into auspiciousness through difficulties, and bad luck can be turned into good luck..."

The atmosphere in the hall became more and more ambiguous.

Zhen Shijing, who was on the side, although she had seen her sister, whose temperament had no middle state.

Always jumping back and forth between ninety percent gentle and beautiful and ten percent crazy, occasionally teasing friends and relatives.

But she had never seen her truly tease a great man, and couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

It wasn't until Zhang Gui forcibly pulled back his palm and fled covering his face that she came back to her senses.

"Sister, even if you want to choose this Zhang Longhu for marriage, you don't have to be so active.

As the number one direct young lady in terms of qualifications among the younger generation of the Jinling Huayu family, no matter how promising he is, achieving 'Great Auspicious Upper Grade' in the future, he is only on par with you.

What if we are a little more reserved."

"I just won't."

Zhen Ciyun deliberately waited until her sister finished speaking before spitting out three words with a smile.

Blocking the usually temperamental Zhen Shijing so that she couldn't say a word, she sat paralyzed on the Arhat chair in annoyance.

Afterward, time passed, and in the blink of an eye, four days passed.

This morning.

Before entering the school, Zhen Shijing told Gu Rongjin, who had just reconciled, that she had been trapped in the study these days and felt stuffy, and wanted to go to the dock area of the outer city in the afternoon to relax.

Although the inner city of the Great Wolf Capital was much more prosperous than the outer city, the dock area of the outer city was very special.

Because when Chang Sheng Tian established the foundation, he said that his capital would be "welcoming merchants from the four continents in the future."

And after it became a climate, he fulfilled his promise, so this place was like a "kaleidoscope of ten thousand countries," and in terms of entertainment, nowhere could compare to it.

Although Gu Rongjin felt that he had embarked on the right path and understood the importance of hard work and seriousness, his temperament was still playful.

Led by Zhen Shijing's words, he immediately felt that he had also been trapped in the Xianhe Study, studying and cultivating hard for a long time.

It was completely appropriate to go out and play.

So he readily agreed.

Zhen Ciyun watched this scene from the side, always with a gentle smile like water on her face.

Gu Rongjin glanced at her, hesitated for a moment, and said:

"Sister Ciyun, why don't you come with us to the dock to see.

The Long Princess of Yuanshan is about to have a big birthday, and I heard it's getting more and more lively there.

Many merchant fleets from outside continents, food, drink, play, and use are eye-opening."

"Yes, sister, you should come with us too; maybe you can see the person you want to see."

"Shijing, are you really going to the dock area today?"

Zhen Ciyun asked with a shallow smile, as if she hadn't heard the words of Gu Rongjin and Zhen Shijing.

Zhen Shijing nodded seriously.

"Then I will accompany you there."

The date was set.

After studying the scriptures for half a day, eating lunch, and resting for a while.

According to the rules, geniuses who practice the Dao, awaken the Divine Cong, or both, should start practicing the Three Treasures and excavating the bloodline true form.

But because the time had been set, the two Zhen sisters waited in "Water Character Building 23," watching the "wronged ghost" come to the door.

As a result, after just drinking two cups of clear tea, Gu Rongjin really brought a group of friends to visit.

The first sentence was, "Shijing, Sister Ciyun, forgive me, forgive me.

Brother Xu Hong, Brother Bolan, Brother Anjing... are all feeling upset about interpreting the scriptures in the study.

Want to go to the dock area together to take a look."

Zhen Shijing frowned and pretended to be annoyed upon hearing this,

"I originally wanted to call Sister Chonghe or Fushou, Baochang, and the three or five of us good friends to go out and play.

Why did you call so many classmates again.

We have our own future, it's not good to delay other people's studies."

Gu Rongjin hurriedly said: "No, no, no, I didn't force anyone to hook up; everyone has been 'bitter' for a long time and is willing to go out to relax.

Who would have thought that being detained in the Great Grassland to study would be even harder than in the 'Qingdou Academy.'

The travel of 'reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles' is gone.

Cultivation, it's too far from home, 'resources' can't be supplied for a while, so we can only practice hard.

It's truly miserable to the extreme."

"Alright, alright, don't complain, who are you complaining to.

Alright, everyone is here, we can't go back a few, let's hurry up and go.

What do you think, sister?"

Zhen Ciyun nodded with a smile, "That's exactly what should be done."

So a group of people crowded out of the gate of the Xianhe Study and walked toward the direction of the gate.

Entering the bamboo forest, walking along the stone path, seeing stone pavilions and secluded pools.

A depressed-looking girl was washing her feet and drinking alone by the pool.

Accompanied by white cranes, thousands of sword pills were dancing, suspended in the forest, actually seeming to have an atmosphere of "taking a person's head from a thousand miles away" that was contained but not released!

"A good 'Crane Language Thousand Bristles'!

Sister Chonghe, congratulations on turning misfortune into fortune, shedding heart demons, and planting the 'True Dao Sword Seed',"

Seeing the momentum of the sword pills from afar, Zhen Ciyun's eyes lit up, and she congratulated with surprise.

In just a few months, because her most respected grandfather suddenly fled to the enemy country and became indistinguishable between good and evil.

The girl who had always been carefree, whose biggest worry was that the cousin-in-law she "admired most" was bullied by corrupt officials, suddenly became mature.

And her sword weapon, which had been honed for more than ten years since childhood but always showed an inexplicable "sluggishness," became more and more restrained and sharp, like the nameless anger in her heart that could not be vented!

"So it's Sister Ciyun."

With a casual flick of his technique, the white crane dancing gracefully beside him let out a clear cry, spread its wings, and flew straight into Sun Chonghe's mouth.

The dancing sword pills in the forest disappeared without a trace in an instant.

Bright sunlight spilled down from the sky, and everything just now seemed like a dream.

"This is too exaggerated, how can she ascend to heaven like this because of just a few months of tempering her state of mind!"

Seeing her little partner, whom she used to think was a "joke," turn into a "myth" in front of her eyes, Zhen Shijing couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

"Zhen Shijing, you say that others are 'just a few months of tempering their state of mind.'

But in fact, for more than ten years, although Chonghe's swordsmanship always lacked that bit of charm.

But including you, no matter what friends, relatives, or elders said to her jokingly or seriously, that her temperament was not suitable for practicing sword weapons and she should change her path.

She never gave up, even if she seemed to have gained nothing on the surface, she still practiced sword for four hours a day, regardless of wind or rain, day or night!

Now 'ten years of sharpening a sword, showing the frosty blade before the monarch'!

That kind of persistence, forbearance, obsession, and intoxication with sword weapons is not something that 'just a few months of effort' can describe.

If you don't understand this point, then don't practice in the future."
