Chapter 1134: Chapter 870: The New Chessboard (Part 2)
Dragon Sparrow: “…”
Wasn’t it because I ran away from ho? Then I’m the main character.
Zhao Changhe seed to know what she was thinking and laughed: “It was your eting with this little girl that stirred the clouds, so I won’t take you away, stay with her for a while. After all, she is your dear junior sister, why are you still complaining?”
Dragon Sparrow didn’t dislike Ling Ruoyu, quite liked her actually, as long as her master didn’t give her away: “But what she intends is not to take everywhere, it seems like she wants to send back to the Capital.”
“With her destiny, even if nothing happens, soone will create trouble for her. How could she just plainly send you back? Don’t worry, you won’t be sent back.”
Dragon Sparrow had no choice, angrily folded her arms and crouched back into the sword.
Over there, right after Ling Ruoyu left Sword Lake, a group of fierce officers from the Demon Suppression Departnt surrounded her: “Miss Ling, please wait!”
Ling Ruoyu directly took out a Jade Token.
The Demon Suppression Departnt mbers: “…”
Turns out this one is on our side and even a superior. Only those at the Mystical Gate level are qualified to wear the Jade Token. Since the departnt was established, this backdoor was opened for only one person, and that was done by Chief Tang for King Zhao back then.
This Miss Ling has quite a background…
Ling Ruoyu wearily untied Dragon Sparrow: “This is the Dragon Sparrow Sacred Sword, I am handing it over to the Imperial court, perfect rit, so I will take my leave.”
“Miss Ling, please don’t…” The person in charge of the Demon Suppression Departnt smiled apologetically: “Our Sword Lake City is a small place without any strong warriors to escort the Sacred Sword. Since you, ma’am, are our superior, it would be better if you could oversee it for a few more days.”
Ling Ruoyu wondered: “How is this a small place? Langya is just around the corner, isn’t it a frontier stronghold? The Chaotic World Book has been flashing for so long, wouldn’t it have reached him?”
“Master Xuan Chong was ambushed on the way, the battle’s outco is unknown.”
Ling Ruoyu frowned deeply. Now the area around Sword Lake was indeed a stormy place, if Chief Cui didn’t co to support soon, relying on Senior Xuan Chong might not suffice. But she couldn’t just wait around, further delay could lead to real trouble.
She could only reluctantly say: “How about this, help conceal my whereabouts and secretly send to the Capital, can you manage that?”
The entire Demon Suppression Departnt said: “Now the road to the Capital must be watched closely, any carelessness might lead to trouble. If it’s up to us, ma’am, you might as well hide and wait for Chief Cui. Then there’s nothing to fear.”
“Can’t just wait idly.” Ling Ruoyu pondered for a mont, then suddenly said: “Why not do the opposite.”
The mbers of the Demon Suppression Departnt were slightly stunned: “What do you an, ma’am?”
“In two days, it’s Marquis Wu’s fifty-fifth birthday celebration. It is said that Pri Minister Tang will personally attend. Instead of waiting passively here, I might as well go south via the canal directly to Gusu. If Pri Minister Tang is there, everything will be fine, and even if not, it is a place gathering strong individuals. Marquis Wu is a regional powerful figure and also a friend of King Zhao. With his supervision, my mission to protect the sword could indeed be handed over.”
The leader of the Demon Suppression Departnt thought it over and agreed: “It’s a plan, no one would expect that ma’am would travel south with the sword at such a ti, it’s safer on the road.”
Ling Ruoyu then said: “Besides, I heard on the way that the Star River’s intention appeared in the East Sea, is it true?”
“Indeed. We just submitted this news to the Capital today, it seems ma’am already knew.”
Ling Ruoyu nodded: “With this news, needless to say, Pri Minister Tang and Chief Cui, perhaps even the Vermilion Bird and Xuanwu Venerable and my master… all might co. So that’s settled, get so cloth to wrap Dragon Sparrow, and arrange the ship imdiately.”
Zhao Changhe was still at the lake bottom, sensing the girl sitting with a large plank on her back at the bow of the boat, finding it quite amusing.
No need for others to stir trouble, she herself is heading straight into the stormiest place.
“How much longer do you plan to hide from us?” A voice suddenly rang in his ear.
Zhao Changhe turned his head to see a misty figure gradually erging from the water beside him, just like a fairy from water—dreamy and illusory.
Hiding in the nested space where others couldn’t find… Once out, being in between mountains and rivers, Piaomiao, of course, was the first to find him.
Not only did Piaomiao find him, Ye Wuming already wrote a misleading book to deceive the girl, clearly knowing all the doors are open. As for whether the Heavenly Dao knows… after rounds of being struck, in terms of world information, the Heavenly Dao is evidently no match for Ye Wuming. This nonsense with the Chaotic World Book is most likely to deceive the Heavenly Dao, rather than to trap re Ling Ruoyu.
Listening to Piaomiao’s full of grievances words, Zhao Changhe could only sigh: “I wasn’t hiding, I was asleep and knew nothing. But don’t bla Ye Jiuyou either, she has her reasons for doing this.”
Piaomiao certainly understands the reasoning, even if she found him now, she wouldn’t just run and tell all her sisters, understanding Ye Jiuyou’s previous feelings imnsely.
But being separated for thirty years shortly after falling in love with a man, that anger can’t be so easily dissipated: “Where’s Ye Jiuyou gone off to? What is she doing?”
Zhao Changhe said: “She was already gone when I woke up… I reckon she should have found a clue to the Night Palace, verifying it now. It’s only news from Ye Wuming that can make her let go of other matters…”
“What about you?” Piaomiao angrily said: “You risked your life to help Ye Wuming, gone for thirty years, isn’t your heart also full of Ye Wuming? What do you take us for?”
Zhao Changhe helplessly said: “How could I do this for her?”
Piaomiao didn’t believe a word: “Then what is it? Ye Wuming wants to perish together with the Heavenly Dao, offering you the Three Realms, if you have no intention toward her, wouldn’t this outco be best for you? Why risk your life?”
“I risked my life because I knew I wouldn’t die, we already had plans for revival, you know it well.” Zhao Changhe gently embraced Piaomiao, speaking softly: “Every ti I made a breakthrough, I had an uneasy insecure feeling, now is the ti there’s finally no hidden trouble. This matter had to be done sooner or later, that mont was the best opportunity… Not telling you beforehand was my mistake, but we have endless lifespans, there’s still a long ti ahead.”
