Chapter 1050: Chapter 1049: Staying Overnight
"Well... okay."
Chen Tianlong said, intentionally glancing at Li Bingshuang. This visit was entirely based on Li Bingshuang’s will, so now when it ca to eating and accommodation, it was logical to defer to their wishes again.
Seeing Li Bingshuang nod, Chen Tianlong smiled knowingly and followed Jian Wuming into the Sword Family courtyard. Feeling a bit hungry and seeing that the al had been prepared earlier and just needed reheating, they all began to eat.
There were the Sword Family daughters plus the two brothers, and only three people on Chen Tianlong’s side, making six people in total to devour all the dishes on the big table. The happiest among them was Mo Jing, that little glutton, who treated every place like her own ho, encouraging everyone to relax and eat more as she ate.
Li Bingshuang was speechless, thinking that if she could ever match Mo Jing’s capacity, she might truly beco immune to all toxins.
After the al, Jian Wuming arranged rooms for Chen Tianlong’s group and personally visited Chen Tianlong in his room.
The secret of the Dragon Slayer Sword was significant, and he needed to confirm he gave it to the right person. Therefore, he needed to ask Chen Tianlong a few questions.
"Brother Tianlong, I hope I’m not intruding. I’ve co to ask you a few questions. After all, the reason why the Dragon Slayer Sword was given to you today is partly because you are the son-in-law. Whether it is kept at ho or with you, it’s the sa. Another reason is you are the only one who can unsheathe it, which ans the Dragon Slayer Sword has recognized you as its master."
Here, Jian Wuming paused, took a deep breath, and continued: "In fact, this Dragon Slayer Sword holds significant secrets. What you see now may not be its greatest power; it’s rely opened. It possesses many unknown powers yet to be discovered. Also, I wish to know, are you... the Five Elents Yangzi?"
"What Five Elents Yangzi? I don’t quite understand what you’re saying," Chen Tianlong said, playing dumb. His master, Fang Zun, had instructed him not to tell anyone.
Moreover, Chen Tianlong wasn’t sure if this was a special circumstance, so he had to keep it hidden.
"Brother Tianlong, please be honest with . This is very important to . Soone once instructed that this sword must be given to a Five Elents Yangzi, only they, with fate on their side, can unsheathe and reveal the sword, as it’s one of their Divine Artifacts. Only with a specific cultivation technique can it be fully harnessed." Jian Wuming spoke truthfully.
"Uh, well... haven’t you already figured it out? Why ask ?" Chen Tianlong chuckled wryly, understanding that since he could unsheathe it, there might be exceptions if he were not a Five Elents Yangzi.
"Hehe, I already knew, I just wanted to hear it from you, which reassures
more. Forgive my cautious nature, but everything I do requires utmost precision, leaving no room for any carelessness.
"Alright then, since you’ve figured it out, there’s no need to say more, and I trust Senior Wuming to keep this confidential. After all, soone once advised that the fewer people who know about this, the better. Can you promise
that?" Chen Tianlong smiled bitterly.
"Of course, my father also repeatedly instructed on his deathbed that if you were found, I must not publicize this. So, even if you didn’t tell , I wouldn’t have disclosed it." Jian Wuming was soone who valued integrity, especially with a task assigned by his father.
"Alright, thank you, Senior Wuming. If there’s nothing else, I’ll get so rest." Chen Tianlong needed to recuperate after his bout with Xiao Jianteng earlier today.
"And... my daughter, it seems she really likes you. Usually, at the tournant, I’ve never seen her so delighted when facing opponents with similar skills, except with you. I can see Wan Li genuinely likes you, I hope you..."
"Haha, Senior Wuming, I will handle such matters properly, rest assured." Chen Tianlong didn’t want to discuss matters concerning soone’s daughter like that; it felt insincere, almost like charity.
Considering Jian Wanli’s situation, Chen Tianlong thought she was nice, but given the current situation, if she truly wanted it, it would have to wait until after he graduated.
As it stands, he’s just a high school student, and people are already eager to get married. A few years from now, if she can’t wait, she’ll likely get married to soone else first.
Therefore, Chen Tianlong refrained from saying more and let ti provide its solutions for unresolved matters.
That night was uneventful. The next morning, Li Bingshuang and Mo Jing ca to Chen Tianlong’s door. They discussed for a while and decided to leave Hidden Sword Manor quickly. After all, there was trouble yesterday, and taking advantage of Jian Wanli still asleep, they intended to leave quickly.
However, what they never expected was Jian Wanli waking up even earlier than them. She had been unable to rest properly, pondering what she would do if Chen Tianlong left early in the morning, wondering where she would find him afterward.
Thus, she ca over early, waiting for Chen Tianlong to open the door, surprised that his wife was already here.
"Sister, you’re up so early."
Jian Wanli’s words were veiled, making Li Bingshuang smile wryly.
"Hehe, you’re up even earlier," Li Bingshuang could only respond in kind, both aware of the underlying aning.
"Mutual, indeed." Jian Wanli was clearly not giving in, and then she walked over to Chen Tianlong’s door, gently knocked a few tis, and said, "Chen Tianlong dear, are you up yet?"
At this ti, Chen Tianlong had already been awake inside, and hearing Jian Wanli’s voice, he couldn’t help but let out a bitter smile, realizing it wouldn’t be so easy to leave this ti.
Not much later, the door opened. Chen Tianlong was already dressed and had his Dragon Slayer Sword with him, looking every bit like a swordsman. Smiling, he erged, and seeing the three young ladies, he quickly said, "Wow, you all are up so early."
Li Bingshuang shot him a look, knowing full well they were here to save her, yet he pretended.
"Oh, they just missed you, so they couldn’t wait to see you," Jian Wanli boldly and candidly stated.
"Hardly, I bet they’re worried soone might run away," Mo Jing remarked directly, not as shy as Li Bingshuang.
"Cough, cough... Xiaojing, don’t talk nonsense."
Chen Tianlong didn’t want this causing any unpleasantness among them. To be honest, it was because Chen Tianlong had so many won around him and wanted to avoid unnecessary trouble, otherwise, he actually liked Jian Wanli’s character and personality, bold and loving as she was.
"You all co in. I have sothing to say to Wan Li, but since you’re here, let’s chat." Chen Tianlong wanted to take this opportunity to express his thoughts.
The three young ladies raised their eyebrows, unsure what Chen Tianlong had in mind, but followed him into the room nonetheless.
"Brother, surely you aren’t thinking to get with us both..."
"Cough, cough, cough... Xiaojing, stop speaking nonsense." Chen Tianlong was at a loss for words. Mo Jing grew bolder by the day, brazenly voicing such alluring thoughts. Truth be told, Chen Tianlong did entertain such ideas, though in reality, Li Bingshuang would surely beat him senselessly with a stick.
