Sword Roaring in the Sky

Chapter 187 You Little Sly

Sun Yanwan didn't expect that Shi Si would ask this question. He immediately thought that Shi Si had been acting a little abnormally these past few days, but he never thought that it was because of this matter.

Shi Si grabbed something in her sleeve with her delicate hands. She was extremely reluctant to part with it, but if Sun Yanwan said something smooth and avoided the main point, she would leave it behind and never show up in the world again after Dingjun Mountain.

Shi Si was extremely nervous. She had never thought that one day she would have to face such a situation and leave her whole life to the choices of others.

She was not sure that Sun Yanwan would only choose herself.

But if she didn't do this, how could she be willing? How could she be willing?

Sun Yanwan had never thought that he would encounter such a problem. He subconsciously regarded Shi Si as Sun Lingdie, a woman like Namco, but Shi Gu Gu was really not that kind of woman.

He sighed, untied the Jingchan Sword, handed it to Shi Si, and said calmly, "When I was wandering with Master Miao, I had nothing. Even the clothes I wore were lost later."

"If we talk about valuable things, it's probably only the sword given by my senior brother."

"When I first met Aunt Shi, I really didn't have any bad intentions, but now, I absolutely don't want Aunt Shi to leave my side."

"The Jing Chan Sword I gave to Aunt Master is not a gift."

"It's just...if one day, Aunt Shi really looks down on me."

"Just kill me with the Shocking Toad."

Shi Si was silent for a long time, then said with resentment, "You little rascal."

She took off the ancient sword from her back and handed it to Sun Yanwan. She hung Jing Toad on her back and whispered, "Let's go back!"

Sun Yanwan immediately started to act like a rogue and said, "Master Aunt, I don't know how to wear this sword. Can you help me put it on?"

Shi Si stretched out her slender fingers, poked his forehead, and said unhappily, "You really are good at making people angry."

But he still helped him hang the ancient sword around his waist and adjusted the angle for him to make it perfect.

Shi Si was in a very good mood. She and Sun Yanwan stood side by side and walked slowly back. Occasionally, she turned her head and saw that Sun Yanwan's height was almost the same as hers.

Not only did Sun Yanwan's internal Qi training progress by leaps and bounds, but he also trained the twenty-four external meridians to the level of hard strength, and most of them even to the level of Yin strength. He even trained the dragon and elephant meridians to the level of combined strength. In the past year, his body grew very fast, but he didn't notice it.

Shi Si suddenly thought, "In another year or two, this little bastard will be able to get married, right?"

Thinking of this, Shi Si was overwhelmed with shame and dared not think any more. Her fingers moved slightly and touched something. Suddenly, she smiled and took it out from her sleeve. She handed it to Sun Yanwan and said, "There is one more thing I want to ask clearly. Sister Gu said this scroll was a gift for me, but you gave it to her in the beginning."

"Tell me, is it for me or for her?"

Sun Yanwan opened the scroll and saw that it was the Luoshenfu that he had memorized incompletely. Although the handwriting was a little different, it had taken him so long to write that he couldn't really recognize it. Besides, such small details were unimportant. His heart was pounding, and his brain instantly raced to its limit. He thought to himself, "Sister Gu's assist was really tricky. I can't handle it!"

He quickly selected the best solution from seventy or eighty possible responses and slowly replied, "Of course it's for Sister Gu."

Shi Si snorted slightly in anger, and suddenly felt that this little bastard deserved a beating. Sun Yanwan said quietly, "This is a fragment, incomplete, and unworthy of Aunt Shi."

Shi Si was slightly annoyed but also delighted, and said, "Then please complete it!"

Sun Yanwan sighed and thought to herself, "I just can't recite it all!"

He whispered, "I can't make it up."

"When I was writing it, I exhausted all the words in my mind, but I could only write this half. It was the first time in my life that I ran out of ideas and was very depressed."

"No one can describe what kind of woman Aunt Shi is. I can only write a little bit about her."

"I absolutely do not believe that there is anyone in the world who could surpass such talent and be able to describe the grace and beauty of my master's aunt in words."

"Even so, I shouldn't have given it to Sister Gu. I was so distracted at the time..."

Shi Si tapped him lightly on the forehead, and this time she really believed it completely.

Sun Yanwan's articles are of great renown. He is known as the next generation leader of the literary world after Han Shi, the top scholar of this imperial examination, and can even be the deputy of Monk Kongchan in the battle for the throne. He said that his talents are incomplete and he cannot write like Shi Si, which is more touching than reciting one or two hundred poems.

And his straightforward admission of his faults only served to evoke a pang of pain in Shi Si's heart. In her mind, Sun Yanwan was a very proud person. She had also heard that this little bastard had once threatened Yang Diao'er, the young saint of the Demon Sect: "Search the heavens for anyone who can compose this line of poetry. In less than three years, I will offer my head to you." To have such a proud person say, "Your talent is incomplete, and you can't compose a complete poem"—what touching words!

Shi Si even had a sudden thought: "Maybe we can give this little bastard an extra spot!"

"Don't tell him about this. Let him figure it out on his own."

Walking side by side with a beauty like Shi Si, Sun Yanwan could just reach out and hold her delicate hands and play with them as he pleased. However, he could only feel a cold sweat all over his body. It was really not easy to get through the test just now.

Besides being afraid, he also felt a little strange. He suddenly felt that he really didn't want Shi Si to leave him.

What he just said seemed to be the truth!
Monk Kongchan looked at his disciple and Sun Yanwan from afar with complicated emotions.

When Nian Xizhao proposed to Shi Si, Shi Si was reluctant at first. But although he was a monk, he did not want his disciple to become a monk as well. Since she had to get married anyway, why not marry a fellow disciple who knew her well and had decent abilities?

What's more, the Shi family is also very satisfied with the Nian family's status, so this marriage can be regarded as the teacher's order and the matchmaker's words.

Later, when Nian Xizhao broke off the engagement, Monk Kongchan was very angry, but there was nothing he could do about this kind of thing. He had always been worried that his disciple would be depressed for the rest of his life, but he never expected that Zhang Yuanqiao's second disciple was such a bad guy!
How could he, a guest at a wedding, kidnap his best disciple?
Just looking at the two of them walking side by side, they were a perfect match. If it weren't for his prejudice, Sun Yanwan would be the best candidate for a good son-in-law in Dalang. Even if the emperor was choosing a son-in-law for his princess, the upper limit would be no more than this.

Monk Kongchan prided himself on his versatility in both civil and military studies, having even achieved second place in the imperial examinations and now being a Grandmaster. However, Sun Yanwan surpassed them all, surpassing them all. In terms of fame, he didn't even need the title of top scholar. In terms of martial arts talent, even he felt he had a good shot at becoming a Grandmaster. In terms of pedigree, the Songyang Sect was truly impressive; his eldest senior brother was the current Fourth Prince.

Martial arts, literary talent, master, character...

Well, forget it, the character category can be crossed out.
