This time, Lu Feiran's tone was filled with both certainty and regret. "The sword we saw last time might really be made of meteorite iron."

He gritted his teeth in regret. If the other party's attitude had not been so tough and they had just returned to the country and were not sure of the other party's identity, they would have stopped the person and taken a closer look before making any decision.

Lu Yayin doesn't practice martial arts, but her brother does, so she has some knowledge about meteorites. Especially for people who practice martial arts, it is a rare treasure that is hard to come by!

On her brother's birthday, she had tried to find a piece of iron to make a dagger for him, but failed. But what they saw at the time was a long sword! How much meteorite iron would that take?

Lu Yayin's eyes widened in an instant and she exclaimed in surprise.

"No way, that was a long sword! Brother, are you sure that it was really meteorite iron?"

Lu Feiran narrowed his eyes and thought about the situation that day again and again. Finally, he nodded firmly, extremely sure of his guess.

"That's right. It was the flash of light from the sword when it was unsheathed that attracted me. Although I didn't see it closely, I heard that the girl from the Mu family is really rich and she always chooses the best and most expensive gifts for those close to her.

Just a few days ago, I heard a friend jokingly say after drinking that Mu Fushu got a sword from somewhere and hid it from them without showing it to them.

She has the financial resources, and I can't think of anything else other than meteorite iron that could make Mu Fushu and the Gu family cherish this precious sword so much."

After his series of analysis, Lu Yayin's eyes brightened and she nodded in agreement subconsciously, but then she reacted and smiled awkwardly.

"That's not right, brother. Even if those two swords are really made of meteorite iron, they still belong to them and have nothing to do with us."

It was a rare moment for her to say something from the heart, and she instantly succeeded in making her brother's face darken. He remained silent for a long time, but the light in his eyes had not faded, and it was obvious that he was still thinking about the sword.

Seeing him remain silent for a long time, Lu Yayin thought of someone and her eyes began to roll around, and then she spoke casually.

"Brother, how about I ask for you later? Master Gu doesn't know any martial arts anyway, so maybe if I say a few nice words to him, he might just give us the sword."

But Lu Feiran didn't quite believe what she said. He looked at her hesitantly and shook his head with shining eyes.

"Forget it, don't worry about it. I'll go ask those two myself later. At least I can get a sword. If I can get a sword made of meteorite iron, then no matter what kind of opponent I face in the future, I, your brother, will be able to fight!"

There is no martial artist who doesn't like meteorites from outer space. It's the same as a little girl seeing beautiful jewelry, dresses, etc.

Lu Yayin could understand it. She opened her mouth and wanted to say something but ended up curling her lips and saying nothing.

The brother and sister talked for a while before returning to the yard.

As soon as Lu Yayin returned to her yard, she sat down in front of the dressing table, stared at the unclear face in the bronze mirror, squinted her eyes, raised her hand to stroke her face, and asked the maid behind her softly.

"Shuiyao, what do you think of my face?"

The maid standing behind her was stunned for a moment by the question, then subconsciously raised her eyes to glance at the face reflected in the bronze mirror and grinned.

"The girl is naturally very beautiful, why would such a nice girl ask such a question?"

Lu Yayin looked at herself in the mirror, narrowed her eyes slightly, and gently stroked her face with her slender fingers, changing the angle from time to time and speaking in a light tone.

"So who do you think is prettier, this young lady or the daughter of the Mu family?"

Shui Yao's pupils trembled. She didn't expect that she would ask such a question and was suddenly a little embarrassed.

To be honest, my daughter's appearance is quite good among all the noble ladies in Beijing, but the girl from the Mu family, not to mention her temperament, her face is also fairy-like and her bones are charming. How can ordinary people compare to her?

But she reacted quickly, and immediately smiled and spoke to comfort him, with a hint of disgust in her tone.

"Young lady, why bother comparing yourself to others? Not only is your face beautiful, but even that person's family background can't compare to yours. I don't go back to the capital often, but you know that the Mu family's daughter's mother comes from a merchant family, and she's full of the smell of money."

Shui Yao secretly observed her girl's gaze while she spoke, and helped her take off her hairpins and rings so that she could take a bath and rest later.

As expected, as soon as she said this, a smile immediately appeared on Lu Yayin's face. She stopped touching her face and smiled instead.

"You're the most thoughtful girl. You're so good at talking, so I'm afraid you're asking for a reward again. I've bought a lot of jewelry recently, so go pick out a few and consider them as a reward from me."

How could Shui Yao not be happy about this unexpected good thing? She immediately bowed happily and smiled playfully at her.

"Oh, young lady, you really understand me. Thank you for the reward."

Lu Yayin was in a very good mood. Seeing that all the hairpins on her head had been removed cleanly, she glared at her in anger, then smiled and got up to take a shower.

He didn't notice at all that the maid behind him suddenly had a gloomy expression and rolled her eyes rudely.

Shui Yao wanted to roll her eyes to the sky, and couldn't help but complain in her heart.

"Are you worthy enough to compete with that girl?"

.....

(General of Chariots and Cavalry's Mansion - Backyard)

Everyone slept peacefully in the silent night, and no one noticed when two figures appeared on the back wall of their house which was hidden by the shadows of the trees.

Qiu Jin wrapped herself tightly in a black nightgown, revealing only a pair of bright eyes. At first glance, it was impossible to tell her figure or even her gender.

She tilted her head and looked speechlessly at the person squatting beside her, sighing softly while lowering her voice.

"Can't I come alone? Why did you have to come with me so late at night? You can just sleep a little longer at home."

Mu Qingli was dressed almost exactly like her. She waved her hand nonchalantly, touched the medicine bag in her sleeve, and narrowed her eyes.

"I'm just curious about what kind of secrets Shi Guang'an holds. Let's go to his yard and take a look."

Qiu Jin looked at her helplessly and followed her quietly towards Shi Guangan's yard, not forgetting to hide her figure at the same time.

The two of them came here on a whim, so naturally they did not inform their own people in the Shi Mansion. They just relied on their martial arts to easily approach Shi Guangan's yard.

As a result, he just touched the base of the wall and hid in the shadows again.

Mu Qingli leaned over to take a look at the light that was still on in the room and frowned slightly. Just as he was about to speak, he heard a faint voice coming from inside, and his eyebrows raised slightly.

He is here too?
