Chapter 210

If only he had this sword talent, how good would that be?

"Oh, self-taught?"

Hearing Yanqing's words, Jingliu became even more interested in Lin Mo.

Lin Mo: "...."

Even though Jingliu had a black blindfold covering her eyes, Lin Mo could still feel the other party sizing him up.

"Yeah, I displayed some sword arts in front of Lin Mo, and Lin Mo learned them just by observing, and was even able to improve upon them."

Seeming to hear the disbelief in Jingliu's tone, Yanqing said seriously: "Even my current sword arts are not as good as what Lin Mo has realized himself."

Thinking of the sword talent Lin Mo had displayed, Yanqing had already made up his mind to find Jing Yuan and have him guide Lin Mo.

Or rather, once this matter was resolved, he would take the opportunity to drag Lin Mo to find Jing Yuan.

While Jing Yuan was guiding him, he would let Lin Mo observe from the side.

He believed Lin Mo would gain a lot.

This was also the reason why he wanted to drag Lin Mo along to act together.

Besides Lin Mo being his teammate, the second reason was that he wanted Lin Mo to learn more sword arts.

Once he had earned some merit, he could use this opportunity to go to the Divine Divination Commission.

At that time, he could have General Jing Yuan guide him, and guide Lin Mo at the same time.

Lin Mo: "......."

Lin Mo, who was beside him, heard these words from Yanqing and looked at him with a surprised expression.

Yanqing actually had such thoughts.

This was being too considerate of him.

"Jing Yuan cannot teach him."

After hearing Yanqing's words, Jingliu shook her head gently.

Yanqing: "...."

Lin Mo: "....."

Hearing Jingliu's words, Yanqing's face couldn't help but darken.

What do you mean General Jing Yuan cannot teach Lin Mo?

That is General Jing Yuan!

"Forget it."

Yanqing shook his head: "It is safe now, let's continue."

Yanqing felt there was nothing to say to this woman.

What was there to argue about with a blind person?

Saying this, Yanqing took Jingliu and walked towards the pier.

Lin Mo followed, but noticed Jingliu's gaze was constantly fixed on him.

Especially with Jingliu walking behind him, that gaze fixed on him made Lin Mo feel uncomfortable all over.

Subconsciously, Lin Mo slowed his pace, deciding he couldn't let Jingliu stare at him.

Because he slowed his pace, Lin Mo, who had originally been walking in front of Jingliu, was now walking shoulder-to-shoulder with her.

As he walked with Jingliu, a breeze blew by, and a faint, cool aura, mixed with an unknown faint fragrance, drifted with the wind.

"You are quite good."

Jingliu looked at Lin Mo beside her and spoke softly.

"Uh..."

Hearing Jingliu's words, Lin Mo scratched his head; he didn't know how to respond to this person.

After all, if you really wanted to talk about it, this person was a top-tier big shot.

However, he didn't feel any awe.

Anyway, as long as he was given time, he would definitely be able to surpass this big shot.

Unknowingly, the three of them arrived at the pier.

"The flight records of the skiffs are all logged in the navigation instrument at the pier."

Looking at the navigation instrument in front of him, Yanqing nodded: "Fortunately, the navigation instrument here hasn't been destroyed, so we can call a skiff over directly."

Yanqing began to operate it.

After operating it simply for a while, he nodded with satisfaction: "Now we just have to wait. Once my business is done, I will send you to a safe place, sister."

"A safe place?"

Hearing Yanqing's words, Jingliu's tone was calm: "Didn't you say you were going to send me to the Cloud Knight station? Why do I have to take a skiff again? Since this place has been sealed off, there must be a Cloud Knight station here too."

"Yes, because for you, sister, the Cloud Knight station is not safe."

Yanqing put one hand on his hip, looked at Jingliu, and said calmly: "This skiff will take you to the Shackling Prison. It provides food and lodging, and is guarded by heavy troops. It is absolutely safe."

"Little brother, you should at least have a reason for taking someone in."

Hearing Jingliu's words, Jingliu said softly: "The Shackling Prison, if I remember correctly. That is the place for the Luofu's most dangerous criminals."

"Of course there is a reason."

Hearing Jingliu's words, Yanqing said calmly: "Suspicious behavior, hiding your head and showing your tail—this alone is enough. You don't think I'm a child and easy to fool, do you?"

"Not to mention how a stranded traveler suddenly appeared in a sealed-off port. Along the way, I noticed your steps were light and steady; where is there any sign of a blind person?"

"As for your sword arts, it's one thing to listen and talk a good game, but to be able to judge my sword arts and even point out problems in them—this kind of insight is not something an ordinary person would have."

"You are not blind at all!"

"I never said I couldn't see."

Hearing Yanqing's words, Jingliu shook her head: "It was you who saw my black veil covering my eyes and assumed so."

Yanqing: "......"

Hearing Jingliu's words, Yanqing was stunned.

Then he fell into deep thought.

It seemed, that was indeed the case.

He had been biased.

"It doesn't matter, little brother. I have no grudge against you, nor have I ever thought of doing anything detrimental to the Luofu. This black veil is proof that I do not wish to be reminded of the past, fall into Mara-Struck madness, and create further calamity."

Jingliu spoke slowly: "I came here just to capture someone, and traveling with you is fine."

"Capture someone?"

Hearing Jingliu's words, Yanqing frowned: "You mean, to capture Blade?"

"'Blade,' is that his name now? Abandoning the body to the blade, polishing the heart with swords—he certainly knows how to pick a name."

Jingliu said softly: "Take me to see him, little brother."

Yanqing: "...."

Hearing Jingliu's words, Yanqing had a face full of black lines.

Every time he heard this woman call him "little brother," he felt a very strange sensation.

Clearly he wasn't young, and this woman didn't look old either, so why would she address him like that?

"You are not my match, so you are not Blade's match either."

While Yanqing had black lines on his face, Jingliu said: "Only with me traveling with you will you not throw your life away, little brother."

"I am not your match?"

Hearing Jingliu's words, Yanqing sneered: "The sword edge hasn't even been drawn, how do you know who is better? I advise you not to underestimate my sword."

"I don't want to fight against the Cloud Knights. How about this."

Hearing Yanqing's words, Jingliu said calmly: "Let's have a competition, using the monsters that now infest the Luofu as our test. Let's see whose sword is faster and who cuts down more, how about it?"

"Like that?"

Hearing Jingliu's words, Yanqing fell into deep thought: "Then what if I win?"

"If you win, of course I will admit defeat, obediently let myself be bound, and go to the Shackling Prison to stand trial and be dealt with as you please."

Jingliu spoke slowly: "But if I win, you must share Blade's whereabouts with me. How about it?"

"The Cloud Knights do not trade with official business."

Yanqing shook his head: "Besides, you won't win."

Information regarding the whereabouts of the Stellaron Hunters was also a secret on the Luofu.

"You just said it yourself, the sword edge hasn't been drawn, how do you know who is better?"
