Sword Roaring in the Sky

Chapter 68 Junior Brother Sun knows how to enjoy life

After saying this, Zhang Qingxi walked down the Lingjian Tower and left with Du Kumei, who looked like an old eunuch.

After a long while, Sun Yanwan finally came up with an idea: "Twenty years?"

"If this were a novel, and the excitement dragged on for this long, I'm afraid all the readers would have left in just two months."

"Big Brother is out of touch with reality!"

"But what Senior Brother said is really dangerous."

"Master, why didn't you let me go back to Taiyi Temple? Is there any place safer than being by your side?"

"Could it be... playing hard to get?"

"Throw me back and deliberately appear unimportant? That way no one will assassinate me!"

"What if something goes wrong?"

All kinds of distracting thoughts flooded Sun Yanwan's mind, and for a moment even the sadness of parting with her senior brother was diluted a little.

Suddenly, two light voices came from downstairs of Lingjian Tower: "Brother Sun/Senior Brother Sun, it's noon, we have prepared some tea and food." Sun Yanwan then remembered that he left Sun Lingdie and Namco in Jinshan Tower, and now the two girls had to find their way "home" by themselves.

Sun Yanwan stuck her head out and shouted, "Please come up quickly." Sun Lingdie and Namco went upstairs a little nervously. They saw Zhang Qingxi leave, and they didn't know what had happened, so they didn't dare to ask.

Sun Yanwan didn't explain to the two women and said, "I've already won first place in Group C. The rest of the competition has nothing to do with me. I want to go back to Taiyi Temple first."

Sun Lingdie asked shyly, "Is it convenient for me to go to Taiyi Temple for a visit?"

Sun Yanwan smiled and said, "Come on! I am the abbot of Taiyi Temple. You can ask Senior Sun to come with you. We can both arrange accommodation."

Namco's heart moved, and he asked, "Can I bring Xiao Jiuer to Taiyi Temple?"

Sun Yanwan replied: "Of course!"

Once the eldest brother left, he was left alone.

It would be more lively if more people came to stay at Taiyi Temple, and there would be nothing wrong with that.

He knew that both women had their own thoughts, but he did not object. After all, they were still young and did not need to worry about these things for the time being.

Sun Yanwan said he was leaving and there was no rush, so the two girls brought him lunch. Naturally, he was accompanied by the two young ladies and enjoyed a delicious meal. After seeing off the two girls from Sun Lingdie and Namco Palace, he set off to return to Taiyi Temple on Lingjian Peak.

Not long after returning to Taiyi Temple on Lingjian Peak, guests came to visit.

A middle-aged Taoist priest brought Linghu Shao and Ding Fenxiu with him. Sun Yanwan knew without any introduction that this person must be Zhang Ji, the eldest disciple of Sixth Uncle Master Yin Bailian. Linghu Shao was still a little angry, but Ding Fenxiu was better. He at least called him "Little Uncle Master" obediently.

Zhang Ji's temperament was as gentle as a spring breeze. He smiled slightly and said, "Master asked me to lead you to strangle the Blood Wolf Riders."

"It just so happens that Junior Brother Sun's competition is over. How about we set off tomorrow?"

Sun Yanwan was about to agree, but suddenly hesitated for a moment and said, "Give me a few more days, two or three days will be enough."

Now that he has opened up nine meridians, he can be considered a sixth-grade mid-level expert. With the seventh-grade external skills and the sixth-grade internal skills, he is not afraid of anything when traveling the world. However, if he has a few more days to digest the knowledge, his cultivation can be further improved.

Zhang Ji replied, "It's okay to leave a few days later. If it's convenient for Junior Brother Sun, can I take Junior Brother Linghu and Nephew Ding to stay here? When Junior Brother is ready, we can set off together?" Sun Yanwan agreed and arranged accommodation for the three of them.

Zhang Ji had Jiang Yan's blessing, asking him to create more opportunities to get closer to Sun Yanwan, Linghu Shao, and Ding Fenxiu. After all, these young men would definitely be the backbone of the Songyang Sect in the future. If they disliked each other, it would definitely not be a good thing for the Songyang Sect.

Linghu Shao was settled down, but he couldn't stay in the room. He walked around a few times and guessed that his senior brother was already meditating, so he sneaked out. However, he saw Ding Fenxiu also climbing the wall. He laughed secretly, jumped up, hugged Ding Fenxiu, and floated down.

Although Linghu Shao is only at the eighth level, he has mastered the lightness skills quite well.

When Ding Fenxiu saw that it was him, she quickly covered her mouth.

Linghu Shao used his Qinggong skills to run several dozen feet before putting the man down and saying, "Let's go find Sun Yanwan for another fight."

Ding Fenxiu nodded her head desperately, she was also very unconvinced.

Ding Fenxiu practiced the shrinking sword technique, which placed the most emphasis on lightness skills, allowing her to move swiftly in a small space. However, she was too young and had short legs, so her lightness skills could not be improved at all. That was why she was forced by Sun Yanwan on the stone platform and had to fight hard.

She had long wanted to have another match with Sun Yanwan, so she found a spacious place and didn't believe she could lose.

When the two of them arrived outside the courtyard where Sun Yanwan lived, Linghu Shao shouted, "Junior Brother Sun, we're here to challenge you."

Sun Yanwan called out from the yard, "Come in!"

The two entered Sun Yanwan's courtyard and saw eight or nine girls serving their junior fellow apprentice. They had heard of two of them before: the eldest daughter of the Tianji Sun family and the eighth daughter of the Nanmeng family. The rest were their personal maids.

Well, Nan Mengjiu didn’t come!
Linghu Shao was furious and couldn't help but sneer, "Junior Brother Sun really knows how to enjoy himself."

Sun Yanwan chuckled and said, "When life is good, one should enjoy it to the fullest. Don't let the golden cup face the moon empty. How can Senior Brother Linghu be so depressed?"

Linghu Shao was a homeless child. He went to Songyang Mountain and only learned martial arts. He had no exposure to literature and could only be considered to be slightly literate. Sun Yanwan's words made him feel blocked in the stomach and filled with depression.

Ding Fenxiu was young and not as generous as others, but her eyes lit up and she said, "Whose lyrics are these? They sound so poetic."

Sun Lingdie said with a hint of pride, "Of course, it's my brother Sun's poem. It's more than just artistic conception. Even if you look around the world, I'm afraid there are few young scholars who can compare to it."

Namco's eyes suddenly lit up. She was attracted to Sun Yanwan not because of her literary talent, but now she finally understood why Sun Lingdie wanted to give birth to this twelve-year-old child. With such talent, he was unrivaled in the world. If he was a few years older, how could it be her, Sun Lingdie's, turn?

Sun Yanwan muttered to herself, "You guys are looking down on the scholars of this world too much!"

"I'm not looking down on the literati of this world, but I'm just going to say this today: all the poetry and prose of this place over the past few thousand years, bundled together, is not as good as that of the Qinglian Monk."

"Well, the Qinglian Layman is a bit too bullying, let's change to Yi'an Layman."

Sun Yanwan complained inwardly, but smiled as she said, "Senior Brother Linghu, you've arrived just in time. Let's have a cup of tea and relax. How about we practice martial arts together?"

Linghu Shao hadn't expected Sun Yanwan to actually ask him to practice martial arts together, so he said, "Very good. I came here today to challenge you to a duel."

Sun Yanwan was overjoyed. Without his senior brother, he really lacked an opponent to practice sword skills with.

He was training in the esoteric martial arts of the Songyang School, and he certainly couldn't compete with Sun Lingdie and Namco. This kind of duel was different from ordinary duels; afterward, they would review the battles, discussing the gains and losses of their sword moves and the appropriateness of their responses. Without fellow disciples, they couldn't discuss the secrets of martial arts.

Linghu Shao arrived just in time.
