A man in the Qin Dynasty changed the world by collecting entries.

The only light source in the room was a dim oil lamp.

There were several masked men dressed in black in the room, but only one was sitting.

The original owners of the house, a family of four, are now several corpses.

You can see the expressions on these people's faces before they died: fear and confusion.

They died without ever knowing why the group of men in black who suddenly appeared wanted to kill them.

The conspicuous spiderweb pattern on these men in black reveals that they are assassins from the Net.

The only one sitting there was Jing Ni, who had been sent to assassinate Wei Wuji.

She had only been in Daliang for a short time and was currently gathering information about Wei Wuji and trying to find a way to get close to him.

Ever since Wei Wuji's alliance against Qin made him famous throughout the world, the King of Wei had been extremely wary of him and thus stripped him of his military power.

Wei Wuji was disheartened and stopped attending court and participating in state affairs, indulging in wine and women all day long.

He would go to the largest dance hall in Daliang every now and then. Jing Ni's original plan was to sneak in and find an opportunity to kill Wei Wuji.

However, recently, because Xuan Jian assassinated too many ministers in Daliang, Wei Wuji has been hiding in his mansion and dares not go out anymore.

"Have you made contact with Xuan Jian yet?"

"No, we didn't see Lord Xuanjian at all."

A Luo Wang assassin knelt on the ground, speaking tremblingly.

Jing Ni frowned slightly; Xuan Jian was starting to get out of control.

Since his last disappearance, Luo Wang has not been able to contact him for a long time. Now he suddenly appears in Daliang and assassinates a minister of Wei.

All indications suggest that Xuan Jian was working for someone else, but the work he was doing was also beneficial to the Qin state.

But this is not a reason for Xuan Jian to act recklessly; Luo Wang needs a sharp sword that can obey orders.

As Jingni thought of this, the words Bai Yuan had said to her that day came to mind.

“You are not a sword called Jingni, but a complete person.”

Jingni stroked the sword sheath, feeling somewhat confused.

It must be because of that guy's emotional sword technique that she hasn't recovered yet.

Jingni gave herself a mental plea.

Tuk Tuk!

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

The two assassins from Luo Wang immediately drew their weapons and went behind the door.

"Who?"

"demons and monsters".

Upon hearing the code, the assassins from Luo Wang exchanged a glance, put away their weapons, and opened the door to let him in.

The assassin from Luo Wang immediately reported the intelligence he had just obtained to Jing Ni upon entering.

"My lord, there's been some activity at Lord Xinling's residence!"

Upon hearing this, Jingni nodded, signaling him to continue.

"News has just come in that Lord Xinling seems to be preparing to host a banquet at his residence."

"A banquet? Who are you inviting?"

"We haven't found out exactly who he's going to invite yet, but we're certain that Lord Xinling is taking this banquet very seriously. He's specially invited the best dancers from the Hundred Flowers Pavilion to entertain them at the banquet. This is a good opportunity to get close to him!"

Jingni narrowed her eyes after hearing this and remained silent.

This is indeed an opportunity, as long as she goes ahead and replaces the dancer of the Hundred Flowers Pavilion.

She could then take the opportunity to enter Lord Xinling's residence. Once she entered, she was confident that she could stay, find an opportunity to get close to Wei Wuji, and then kill him.

However, doing so does come at a cost.

In the past, she wouldn't have cared about the cost as long as she could kill her target.

But this time, she hesitated.

"grown ups?"

The assassins from Luo Wang, seeing that Jing Ni hadn't spoken for a long time, assumed that they had done something wrong and displeased her.

Jing Ni glanced at him coldly, then picked up her sword and left, leaving a group of Luo Wang assassins looking at each other in bewilderment.

In the backyard of Xuanxin Pavilion, Bai Yuan was practicing swordsmanship with Wuming.

These past few days, Bai Yuan has been refining a batch of pills every morning and then seeking Wuming's guidance on swordsmanship in the afternoon.

Wuming, who already felt he had taken advantage of Bai Yuan, naturally agreed and carefully taught him, also serving as a demonstration for him.

Bai Yuan's swordsmanship was learned from Taoism, but he also had some of his own insights, making each move very free and unrestrained.

Wuming also had a good understanding of Taoist swordsmanship, and coupled with his own superb swordsmanship, he was more than capable of giving Bai Yuan pointers.

Bai Yuan always took the offensive role, while Wuming always played the defensive role.

But in reality, Bai Yuan was always the one being suppressed.

Every attack he launched, no matter how ingenious or cunning, was easily neutralized by Wuming.

The nameless swordsman wielding the Han Guang sword was unpredictable in his swordsmanship. Although it was mainly defensive, it still put Bai Yuan in many dangerous situations.

During this process, Wuming will intentionally or unintentionally help Bai Yuan correct the shortcomings in his sword strikes.

Bai Yuan was like a dried-up sponge, quickly absorbing what Wuming taught him, and his swordsmanship improved by leaps and bounds.

"Nameless gentleman, I acquired a sword by chance yesterday. Please try it out!"

After a brief exchange, Bai Yuan suddenly distanced himself and said very seriously.

Wuming nodded, his left hand behind his back and his right hand holding the hilt of the Han Guang sword. He was also looking forward to Bai Yuan's progress.

However, Lu, who was watching from the sidelines, had a strange expression on his face.

"Could it be that Brother Bai Yuan has mastered some strange sword technique again?"

Recalling the day Bai Yuan used the [Emotional Sword Technique], Lu couldn't help but feel a little scared.

However, seeing the extremely serious expressions on the faces of the two people in the arena, Lu felt that Bai Yuan would not use that kind of sword technique in front of Wuming!

In the arena, Bai Yuan held the Peach Blossom Sword upright in front of him and ran his finger along the blade. A pale blue sword aura rose up, like a gentle spring breeze.

Suddenly, many tender green shoots sprouted from the soil beneath his feet, as if spring had truly arrived.

Wuming's eyes narrowed, sensing something was amiss. He increased his internal energy output to the Han Guang Sword, and with a gentle swing, countless sword lights appeared behind him, indicating he was getting serious.

Bai Yuan's power grew stronger and stronger until it finally reached its limit.

Without any visible movement, he vanished in an instant, turning into a wisp of green smoke.

This is the Taoist principle of "harmony with the world," and Bai Yuan activated it without any warning, showing that he had mastered it to perfection.

When he reappeared, he was already to the left of the nameless man.

However, Wuming reacted extremely quickly, immediately turning around and swinging his sword, using the sword energy of Han Guang to set up a defense.

A dense array of sword shadows surrounded Bai Yuan, their sword light dazzlingly brilliant.

Having sparred with Wuming for many days, Bai Yuan was quite familiar with some of Wuming's sword techniques. He closed his eyes in preparation and was not blinded by the sword light.

Based on his intuition, he thrust out his sword without hesitation. This sword strike broke through the illusion with solidity, like a spring breeze melting away winter snow. The sword energy that Wuming had laid out not only failed to provide a defensive effect, but instead enhanced the power of Bai Yuan's sword energy.

"Well done!"

When Bai Yuan broke through his defenses, Wuming was not surprised but delighted. He immediately changed his moves, and all the sword lights merged into one, making the invisible Han Guang sword even more solid.

The two swords clashed, sparks flying, and the clash of sword energy caused even the onlookers to be blown back a few steps by the shockwave.

Ultimately, the powerful impact pushed the two apart. Wuming couldn't help but take three steps back, while Baiyuan took five steps back before stopping.

As calm returned, several small tears appeared on the clothes of the two people, clearly caused by the leaked sword energy.

However, both of them were holding back their strength, so only their clothes were torn.

Chapter 29 Make a Friend (Sun)

This sword duel happened in the blink of an eye.

Wuming stared at the marks left by the sword energy on the ground, slightly taken aback.

Using the spot where the two had just collided as the dividing line, almost all the sword marks were on his side, while Bai Yuan only had a few sword marks on his side.

Although Wuming won the previous sparring match by overwhelming the opponent with his strength, he lost this sword strike.

"With that last sword strike, you almost returned all the sword energy to me?"

"Unfortunately, it's still a bit lacking."

Bai Yuan did not deny this, but he still regretted that this move was not perfect enough. It could only return the sword energy, but it could not return the opponent's power.

Wuming smiled and shook his head. Bai Yuan's move just now had already surprised him. If it weren't for his profound internal energy protecting him, and the fact that the two were just sparring and controlling their power, he would be in a very sorry state right now.

Wuming pointed at the sword marks on Baiyuan's side and said, "Your progress is truly astonishing. That wasn't even your full strength just now, was it?"

If Bai Yuan were to use his full strength, it wouldn't be difficult for him to return all the sword energy.

Bai Yuan smiled somewhat embarrassedly after being pointed out by Wuming.

"It's just a friendly spar. I just wanted to test the sword techniques I learned yesterday."

"What do you call this move?"

"The spring breeze brings warmth!"

Bai Yuan gave this move a rather fitting name.

This is a sword move that can send back both your own sword energy and the enemy's sword energy. Isn't it just about bringing warmth to others?

Although Wuming didn't know the deeper meaning behind Bai Yuan's name, he thought the name was quite good, considering the spring-like aura contained in Bai Yuan's sword strike just now, and nodded in approval.
