The top-level junior sister also wants to act weak today

Although Jiang Yingxue's acting is very good, and although I sometimes can't tell which of her words are true and which are false, but since she said it, I can choose to take it seriously.

What the truth is no longer important.

A series of screams were heard from the dungeon. Jiang Yingxue was afraid that Yan Chuan would get hurt if he heard them, so she quickly grabbed Yan Chuan's sleeve and said anxiously, "Let's go back. This place is dark and damp, and we can't stay here for too long."

After saying that, she gently pulled and began to walk forward with Yan Chuan.

The dim light of the yellow oil lamp cast long shadows behind the two people, and the damp moss on the wall was faintly visible in the dim light.

Yan Chuan took a look at the moss on the ground, stepped on it deliberately, and then stumbled and almost fell.

Jiang Yingxue was quick to act and subconsciously reached out to help him. Just as she was steadying him, Yan Chuan grabbed her hand.

Jiang Yingxue's heart trembled. She looked up and found that Yan Chuan was frowning and looked a little tired.

I only heard Yan Chuan whisper: "Slow down a bit, my feet hurt a little."

"My feet hurt?" Jiang Yingxue frowned. "What's wrong? Are you injured?"

Yan Chuan nodded, then lifted up a corner of his robe and showed Jiang Yingxue the area stained with the guard's blood.

Jiang Yingxue looked down and in the dim light, she saw dark bloodstains on the other person's shoes and the corners of his clothes.

"What happened to you? Why are you bleeding so much?"

Yan Chuan explained: "When I went to capture Xu Shijie tonight, I was injured by several guards around him."

Jiang Yingxue was a little surprised: "You're already in the Golden Core stage, how could you get hurt? Are the guards around him very strong?"

"I wouldn't call him strong, I just underestimated him and didn't take precautions."

"Okay..." Jiang Yingxue looked at the bloodstain, feeling that the injury must be quite serious, and frowned: "Then I will help you out and bandage you first?"

"Just give me some support. I can bandage it myself. It's just a minor injury."

After saying that, Yan Chuan held Jiang Yingxue's hand even tighter.

Because the other person was injured, Jiang Yingxue didn't think there was anything wrong with this action, so she held the other person's arm with one hand and shook hands with the other hand, and slowly helped the person out.

When I walked out of the dungeon, it was already bright daylight.

They returned to the room the Elf King had arranged for them to rest for a while. A few hours later, they were summoned to the hall again.

The atmosphere in the hall was solemn. The Elf King, wearing a golden robe, sat on the throne, looking down at the two of them.

After a long silence, she slowly spoke, "To be honest, I didn't want to give you the Firefly Crystal so easily. But Ling'er sent someone over early this morning, telling me not to break my promise. Although you're the offspring of that scumbag and logically don't deserve the Firefly Crystal, I can't go back on my word."

After saying this, the Elf King clapped his hands, and a palace maid quickly came in carrying a small silver tray. On the velvet of the tray was a crystal clear emerald.

The emerald was like solidified spring water, with a clear green hue. Its slight luster was like the faint light of a mountain firefly, and it exuded a gentle spiritual power leisurely and contentedly.

"You two, please stand up. This is the Firefly Crystal you requested. See if it fits your sword."

"Thank you, Queen." After saying this, Yan Chuan stood up and took the Firefly Crystal. When his right hand touched the Firefly Crystal, a clear and gentle power resonated with the spiritual power in his body, making him feel an unprecedented sense of harmony.

Yan Chuan quickly drew out his Firefly Sword, carefully aimed the Firefly Crystal at the last hole, and gently placed it into the hole in the hilt.

Instantly, a golden light burst forth from the blade. As if sensing the crystal's arrival, the Firefly Sword quickly ascended into mid-air. Like sunlight at dawn, the golden light pierced through the shadows of the hall, illuminating the surroundings.

The sword body trembled slightly, and the light sword light cut through the air, as if it was undergoing some kind of awakening and transformation.

As the golden light gradually dissipated, the Firefly Sword stopped steadily in the air. At this moment, the Firefly Sword seemed to have been reborn, perfectly merging with the five gems on the hilt.

"It's done." Yan Chuan held the Firefly Sword firmly, and the light of the sword body trembled slightly in his hand.

He quickly put away his sword and bowed to the Elf King again: "Thank you, Queen, for your help."

The Elf King slowly raised her eyes and looked at Yan Chuan again. There was no warmth in her eyes, and her tone was also somewhat reluctant: "No need, I promised you first."

After saying this, she sighed imperceptibly: "I'll have the leader of the Spiritual Maiden Clan take you back to Tianshan later. My Ling'er has started a new life now, and I don't want you to disturb her. Do you understand me?"

Even Jiang Yingxue, an outsider, felt heartbroken when she heard these words. Yan Chuan was so outstanding, yet everyone avoided him like the plague.

Alas, no wonder he became the villain in the end. I guess being abandoned by the heroine was the last straw that broke the camel's back.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yingxue felt even more distressed for Yan Chuan.

Yan Chuan looked calm and said, "The purpose of coming to Simon Island this time has been achieved. I will naturally not disturb the Fifth Princess."

"Alright, alright." The elf rubbed his brow with one hand and waved his other hand twice casually: "You two go down, Tao'er, go and ask the leader of the Spiritual Maiden Clan to take them away. They are lonely."

The young palace maid beside her answered yes, and then led the way for Yan Chuan and the other two: "Please follow me, both of you."

-

When we returned to Tianshan, it was already getting dark. The afterglow of the setting sun was sprinkled across the mountains, and the golden light shone through the towering ancient trees, casting mottled shadows on the quiet path.

At this moment, Chu Ying and Cen Yizi were helping water the plants in Xu Yan'er's yard.

Seeing the two return, Chu Ying quickly put down the watering can and ran forward: "How is it? Is everything going well? Big Brother, did you find your mother?"

Facing Chu Ying's repeated questions, Yan Chuan nodded awkwardly: "It went quite smoothly."

After saying this, he pulled out the Firefly Sword and showed it to everyone: "Now the Firefly is a sword with all attributes."

Chu Ying clapped her hands upon hearing this, "That's fantastic! Mr. Zheng would never have thought that the sword he'd been aiming for his entire life would finally be forged successfully!"

The sword shone golden in the afterglow of the setting sun. Cen Yizi looked at the gleaming Firefly Sword with his eyes aglow. He quickly stepped forward and said, "It's indeed a fine sword! Now we have all the weapons we need. Our chances of winning the sect competition have increased. Let's hurry back without delay."

Chu Ying: "That's true. If I don't practice more, my sword skills will start to become rusty."

Xu Yan'er, who was standing by, felt a little reluctant after hearing this, but she still bowed to them and said, "Thank you for sending me back. I'll take you out. I wish you all the best in the future."
