In that mont, it was as if sparks were flying, crackling in the air.
“Hmm?” Xie Linyuan’s expression perked up, “Such strong montum.”
Initially, when he saw this young man with pale features, seemingly delicate and fragile, he wondered where this gentle scholar had co from.
But that one glance had filled him with the thrilling tremor that he only experienced when facing top-notch masters, as if there were electric currents surging through his fingers, igniting a burning desire to fight within him.
Xie Linyuan instinctively wanted to grasp his sword.
However, he soon realized that the other party hadn’t seen him, and he forcefully suppressed that fighting spirit.
Yan Tingfeng also withdrew his gaze, his eyelashes drooping.
Strange.
Why did he feel that, besides himself and Ye Wanlan in the hospital ward, there was a third person present?
And this third person was definitely no weakling.
Although he was ill and his strength was limited by the Life-Devouring Gu, his inner strength was still vast.
Could there really be soone capable of escaping the perception of the Supre Martial Arts Master?
Yan Tingfeng shook his head, perhaps it was a misperception because he had just woken up.
“Xiao Wan.” He stepped forward and sat down beside Ye Wanlan’s sickbed, asking softly, “How are you feeling now? Is there any discomfort?”
“I’m all right, they’re just superficial wounds, no need to worry.” Ye Wanlan coughed twice, frowning, “Rather, it’s you, how did you also end up looking like this?”
She didn’t need to take his pulse – just from his current complexion, she could tell the state of his health.
“I had an attack yesterday and haven’t recovered today.” Yan Tingfeng shook his head slightly, “How could I not look for you when you suddenly disappeared?”
Hearing this, Xie Linyuan’s eyebrows rose, “The lad does care about you, but…”
Why did he find it so irkso?
What exactly was the problem?
“Lying.” Ye Wanlan’s fingers shot out like lightning, gripping Yan Tingfeng’s wrist.
Such speed startled Xie Linyuan as well.
Even though it was three hundred years later, his mory of his Little Junior Sister was still stuck in a period three hundred years prior.
Back then, because she couldn’t gather inner strength, she wasn’t able to cultivate advanced martial arts, and she was always accompanied by eighteen guards arranged by the King of Yan for protection.
Now, Ye Wanlan had just woken up, and her body had not fully recovered, yet she already possessed such fast hand speed, showing that she indeed could now cultivate and fill her body with inner strength.
Xie Linyuan suddenly felt a sting in his eyes, nearly moved to tears with relief.
No matter what state he was in now, his Little Junior Sister finally had a healthy body, which was excellent.
“After having an attack, you didn’t take your dicine properly, nor did you rest imdiately; instead, you used your inner strength.” Ye Wanlan spoke indifferently, “Does Young Master Yan not value his life?”
Xie Linyuan suddenly fell silent: “…”
This statent, why did he feel like he had said sothing similar to his own Little Junior Sister not long ago?
Xie Linyuan lifted his head, his sharp gaze sweeping over Yan Tingfeng’s body.
The lad had a good exterior, and even he, who was always proud, conceded defeat.
“Life is certainly important.” Yan Tingfeng smiled faintly, “I won’t give up my life until I’ve helped Xiao Wan with what you wanted to accomplish.”
Xie Linyuan crossed his arms and spoke coldly: “Flattering words.”
The Jade Luan Pin, on the other hand, could see Xie Linyuan and hear him speak.
Hearing him say that now, the Jade Luan Pin couldn’t help but be at a loss for words: “Are these considered flattering words? But Linyuan, the things you used to say to Yinyin, weren’t they even more explicit?”
Ye Wanlan, who had listened to the conversation in full, was very calm. She withdrew her hand and said to Yan Tingfeng, “You are not to use inner strength in the next few days, and you must take your dicine on ti.”
“Hmm.” Yan Tingfeng blinked gently and nodded in agreent, “But your body…”
When he and Rong Qi found Ye Wanlan, she was lying by the lake, seriously injured.
After he woke up, he had the people from Bureau 723 search the entire Fengyuan City, but they still couldn’t find any trace of the psychic.
“I was injured during the fight, and the opponent died from the backlash of their psychic powers; probably not even a corpse is left.” Ye Wanlan smiled faintly, “It was indeed a psychic from the Northern Lands, but it’s still unknown whether they’re a loose cultivator or belong to a certain power.”
“I will look into this matter.” Cold ferocity flashed through Yan Tingfeng’s beautiful eyes, but when he looked at Ye Wanlan again, his gaze softened like gentle waters, “Xiao Wan, you rest first. You have more than superficial injuries; you’ve suffered considerable internal damage. The production team has paused filming, and I’ll cover for you with uncle’s side, don’t worry.”
Only then did Ye Wanlan relax, “Thank you.”
Her recovery was remarkable, and with the help of dicine, she’d be fine after a few days of rest. Her only worry was that Lin Huaijin, upon finding out, would beco so anxious he’d lose his appetite and be unable to sleep.
“Alright, I’m heading out,” Yan Tingfeng said as he adjusted her quilt once more, “If you need anything, just call for .”
The door opened and then closed again.
After finishing a cup of hot water, Ye Wanlan turned around only to see Xie Linyuan staring at the door with hostility, as if trying to bore a hole through it.
She raised an eyebrow, “Big Senior Brother, why such a deep and bitter look? What’s the matter?”
“I just think that that kid is all sweet talk, and he’s deliberately putting on a frail act, worrying you might be fooled,” Xie Linyuan said, “Being a man myself, of course, I know that ninety-nine percent of n in this world are unreliable.”
“Oh?” Ye Wanlan’s eyebrow rose even higher, her tone leisurely as she spoke, “Could it be because you are also among that ninety-nine percent, which is why Fanyin repeatedly refuses to et you, and you can only sneak around to watch her?”
Xie Linyuan: “?”
Xie Linyuan: “…”
In utter disbelief, his voice trembled, “Little Junior Sister, how do you know about these things?”
Ye Wanlan took out the Jade Luan Pin, briefly narrating, “The jewelry you gave to Fanyin, it told .”
Xie Linyuan didn’t speak; he just sat quietly in the chair, the gleam in his eyes fading away.
With his biggest secret exposed, he felt on the verge of collapse.
Staring at the Jade Luan Pin, if it hadn’t been his token of love with Lin Fanyin, he would have slain it to keep it silent.
“Your Royal Highness the Princess, I, I feel like Linyuan wants to slaughter ,” the Jade Luan Pin trembled frightfully.
“He won’t,” Ye Wanlan said indifferently, “He wouldn’t dare; otherwise, he doesn’t need to act, Fanyin would sever ties with him forever.”
Xie Linyuan: “…”
Indeed, he wouldn’t dare.
When it ca to matters concerning Lin Fanyin, even the Sword Saint could be a coward.
“But there’s one thing I must bring up,” Xie Linyuan frowned slightly, “The kid from earlier, I feel like I’ve seen him sowhere before…”
“Oh?” Ye Wanlan’s eyebrow twitched, “Though Big Senior Brother isn’t exactly living, you have been dead for three hundred years; how could you recognize soone from this era?”
“Your words…” Xie Linyuan pressed on his brow, laughing helplessly, “Really don’t sound like a complint.”
What did she an he hadn’t lived, and he’d been dead for three hundred years?
Xie Linyuan then asked, “What is Little Junior Sister’s current na?”
“Ye Wanlan,” she responded, “To retrieve Wanlan from the state of collapse.”
“To retrieve Wanlan from the state of collapse?” Xie Linyuan nodded slightly, “Did you na yourself this? Yes, only you would dare to choose such a na.”
“I chose it myself,” Ye Wanlan said with a faint smile, “If I can’t even decide my own na, what can I control?”
“But why the surna Ye?” Xie Linyuan asked further, “In this lifeti, is your father surnad Ye? That is rather uncommon.”
“No,” Ye Wanlan replied nonchalantly, “I grew up in an orphanage; I chose the surna myself, fearing that soone might not be able to find later on.”
Xie Linyuan was slightly taken aback, “Who?”
Ye Wanlan didn’t address his question but rather murmured to herself, “I am wondering, if Big Senior Brother can appear in such a state, what about the others?”
Xie Linyuan’s body suddenly shook, “Ah Lan, are you suggesting…?”
Indeed, if he could reappear, then did that imply the others could return as well?
What about Lin Fanyin…
“But I don’t know what the trigger was for Sword Tassel to appear; moreover, Big Senior Brother, your situation is quite different from the others,” Ye Wanlan shook her head slightly, “After you executed Unity of Man and Sword, your body ceased to exist, rging with the Sword Saint’s Sword.”
Xie Linyuan pondered, “So after you recovered the fragnts of Sword Saint’s Sword, I was able to appear?”
“I’m afraid it’s not just that simple,” Ye Wanlan remarked, “Because Big Senior Brother, you aren’t in a soul state; if you were, people with high inner strength or those skilled in psychic powers would all be able to see you.”
“True,” Xie Linyuan’s eyes filled with a hint of weariness, looking at his own hands, “Sotis I’m afraid that this is all just a dream. I sensed that you were in danger and ca to your rescue, but can I really stay in today’s world, three hundred years later?”
What if at so mont, he suddenly vanished again?
Ye Wanlan was silent for a mont, then spoke softly, “I don’t know.”
Just as she didn’t know how Xie Linyuan had appeared, she didn’t know if he might disappear.
“But this gives the greatest motivation,” Ye Wanlan stated calmly, “I will hold onto the thought that everyone can return, and look for the way to bring you all back.”
“Little Junior Sister, you…” Xie Linyuan’s body shook, about to say sothing when his expression suddenly changed, “Not good, Sword Saint’s Sword is gone!”
