Chapter 159: Chapter 141: Cold Cicada’s Mournful Cry (Additional update for brother “Zhou Yafu,” Captain) (4K two-in-one ga chapter) Chapter 159: Chapter 141: Cold Cicada’s Mournful Cry (Additional update for brother “Zhou Yafu,” Captain) (4K two-in-one ga chapter) At first, everyone was rely speculating, but now that Jiang Chebai has spoken those words, it’s as direct as saying, “I fancy you.”
Moreover.
In the crowd, many sword cultivators, especially the won, showed looks of longing.
This was a kind of romance unique to sword cultivators.
Sotis, a sword cultivator’s sword is more important than their life; without their sword, they are as good as dead.
And the matching sword for one’s Lifebound Flying Sword is the destination of the sword in their heart.
“My sword likes you, and I’m giving it to you. If you accept it, then you shall be my destination.”
Furthermore, this Cold Cicada Sword had been heard of by many cultivators in Du You City.
It was said that Jiang Chebai had a serendipitous encounter in a secret place near the Gui Ruins at the North Sea, during his ti at Taiching Prefecture. It was there he found a piece of Taiyin Luminous Iron, which he used to forge this sword.
This encounter could be ranked within the top ten of the many amazing experiences the residence students of Taiching Prefecture at Wangque had in the past century.
Taiyin Luminous Iron is a material used to refine Flying Swords for Sword Immortals in the Tranquility Realm.
It is said that one of the conditions for Jiang Chebai’s admission to the Tianya Sword Pavilion upon his graduation from Taiching Prefecture was to have the Tianya Sword Pavilion help him forge the Cold Cicada.
This was a matching sword that would not beco outdated even for sword cultivators in the Seventh Realm.
Gui remarked with interest, “Quite intriguing.”
It was unclear whether it was referring to Jiang Chebai being intriguing, or whether it was Zhao Lingfei, who could make the Cold Cicada chirp and tremble with joy, who was intriguing.
Zhao Rong didn’t ask, for his eyes were fixed only on the calm-faced woman standing in the center of the arena.
“Hey, Zhao Rong, the great young master, I told you not to co, yet you’re here. But since you’re here and not stepping up, aren’t you brave? Always taking charge in whatever you do, always claiming that you want it all, and even when discussing reason with , it’s like an endless stream of nourishing soup.
Now, the woman of your dreams is being publicly confessed to. Hurry up and step up!”
Zhao Rong silently breathed out two words.
“Shut up.”
He didn’t move.
All of this had happened in just a mont.
Many cultivators watched with great interest, focusing on this juicy story that might spread throughout Du You City by tomorrow.
Thinking about it, watching the excitent really is a comfortable thing to do. Life seems to be an interplay of watching others’ excitent and becoming the excitent for others to watch.
At least for today’s event under You Mountain, it definitely was a spectacle most didn’t want to miss.
So, the arena once again quieted down of its own accord.
Ever since hearing Jiang Chebai’s words, Zhao Lingfei had been staring at the Cold Cicada Sword that countless sword cultivators coveted.
Jiang Chebai’s eyes were filled with expectation, and if one looked closely, they might even notice a hint of abject pleading in the depths of his eyes, a sign of hope turned into humility.
He felt as if the fleeting monts that usually passed in the blink of an eye now stretched on endlessly, almost as if he were under the illusion that he had been waiting for an eternity.
However.
In the next mont.
Zhao Lingfei acted.
In front of this Cold Cicada, which most female sword cultivators would have likely accepted,
Zhao Lingfei raised a hand that seed fragile and delicate.
Gently.
She grasped the sword scabbard, wrapped in white cloth.
In that mont.
Suddenly, a soft patter of applause broke out in the arena, followed by thunderous clapping.
It resonated throughout the place.
And in a corner of the crowd that nobody noticed,
Zhao Rong’s grip on that piece of jade that had traveled thousands of miles loosened abruptly.
He turned his back to the crowd.
And began to leave, smoothly and without hesitation.
His steps were quick but only seed to get faster,
As the clapping beca louder and louder.
Zhao Rong’s expression was calm as a placid lake, but his pace quickened.
He passed by passerby after passerby, each drawn by the deafening applause.
Zhao Rong walked against the current,
Not knowing where he was headed, which road this was, or where his chariot was parked…
Zhao Rong didn’t know any of it.
He just wanted to keep walking, without stopping for a mont, because only by doing sothing could he temporarily divert a portion of his attention and alleviate the prolonged pain.
Gui suddenly said, “Actually, you don’t need to test human nature.”
Zhao Rong numbly replied, “I wasn’t testing her; I was rely giving her a choice.”
“Idiot.” Gui chuckled lightly, “A fool, through and through.”
Zhao Rong nodded woodenly.
Gui’s tone was disdainful, “Really, I truly want to scold you. What kind of ss have you made?”
“You always insist on having it all, telling not to do things that I can’t bear the consequences for. But look at what you’ve done? Giving Zhao Lingfei a choice? No, you didn’t give her any.”
Zhao Rong furrowed his brows and said nothing.
Gui’s tone was leisurely, as if chatting with a friend about an everyday matter.
“Have you ever thought from Zhao Lingfei’s perspective? You n always think you’re doing what’s best for won, but have you ever considered it from her point of view?
I don’t know what nonsense happened between you, but I will talk about what I’ve seen.
On the night of a woman’s once-in-a-lifeti bridal chamber, you broke the jade-swapping agreent, shattered her Sword Heart, causing her Lifebound Flying Sword to almost drop to Mortal Grade, and the peerless Sword Immortal Seed to be half-ruined by you.
On your way to deliver the jade, you accepted another woman….
Alright, although you are a ‘married-in’ son-in-law, going by Zhao Lingfei’s dressing, she treats you as the husband who wedded her openly and honourably. And according to Confucian ideals, Zhao Lingfei’s role is the wife, bound by the three obediences and four virtues. You accepting another woman can be accepted as long as you explain to her afterwards.
And that little fox demon, you did reject her several tis, and indeed she is infatuated. It would not be unreasonable for you to accept her.
But from my perspective, I still despise you.
Now, in her eyes, you’ve abandoned her without a second glance. At this mont, when a worthy man expresses his feelings for her, ha, you’ve co to her side but don’t directly go to her to say you’ve co to return the jade. Instead, you hide in the dark, foolishly testing her, giving her so-called choices. But what choices does she really have?”
