Chapter 201 Soaring Into the Sky 1

Fengzhou, Sect of Returning Hearts, Huiyan Peak.

The Order of Blue Heart and Order of Water Mirror were currently holding a sparring session.

“Wow! Sister Zijin won again!”

“Sister Zijin! She’s too amazing!”

“Sister Zijin!!!”

Following the waves of cheers from Fang Qiuyao and the three Yu sisters, Shi He of Order of Blue Heart stood up with his hands on his chest. He cupped his hands towards Liu Zijin, “I admit defeat. Junior Sister Liu’s swordsmanship is getting more and more formidable.”

After Liu Zijin heard this, she sheathed her sword and cupped her hands towards Shi He. “Brother Shi, thank you for the fight.”

At the side of the stands, Yu Manwen looked at Liu Zijin who was looking at her and nodded. Her face was filled with gratification.

As a disciple who had just entered the sect for a year, to be able to enter the top 50 in the sparring competition between the two halls was quite outstanding.

When Liu Zijin walked down from the stage, Zhang Heqing turned his head to look at Yu Manwen and said, “Law Protector Yu, Zijin’s swordsmanship is really different from the last time. Moreover, I saw some of your influence in her skill?”

After hearing that, Yu Manwen smiled slightly. “You have sharp eyes. That’s right, I have indeed been teaching that girl swordsmanship recently.”

“Sigh.” Zhang Heqing waved his hand. “I’m not good at observing things. You are the only one in the world who can perform the Myriad Dance so well and teach it so well.”

“Order Master Zhang, you’re too kind.”

“I meant what I said. In fact, I’ve long wanted to ask you for advice on the Myriad Dance. Why don’t we…”

“Order master, the competition has begun.” Yu Manwen said, pointing at the arena.

“Yes, yes, yes. Let’s watch the competition first.”

Zhang Heqing shifted his gaze back to the arena. He touched the storage ring on his right index finger, which contained a peerless tier Sulu Sword that he had painstakingly found.

This sword was more powerful than his Taihe Sword in terms of both its own power and its potential to become a magical item. However, the moment Zhang Heqing saw this sword, he felt that only Law Protector Yu was worthy of wielding this sword. “Law Protector Yu is worried about her disciples. I’d better find a chance to meet with Law Protector Yu after the sparring is over…” Zhang Heqing thought.

When another match was over, Zhang Heqing was thinking about what topic he should find to talk about this time. Then, he heard Yu Manwen take the initiative to say, “Order Master Zhang.”

At this moment, Zhang Heqing’s heart was instantly filled with happiness. He felt that all the efforts he had put in all this time had been repaid.

Zhang Heqing forcefully suppressed his smile and turned his head to look at Yu Manwen.

“I wonder what kind of errand did your disciple, Jiang Beiran, is doing? He doesn’t seem to be in the sect these few days?”

“Ah, you’re talking about Beiran. Ever since he went to the Sect of Masked Moon, he has been quite busy. When he asked me for a leave, he said that he still had some follow-up matters to attend to. I thought that it might be because Sect Master had asked him to go, so I didn’t ask in detail. Law Protector Yu, is there something you need from that kid?”

Yu Manwen nodded and replied, “Our Order Master talks about him every day. She says that if he doesn’t come, those flowers will die.”

“I see.” Zhang Heqing then replied, “Actually, I also know aa thing or two about flowers. If you don’t mind, after this convention ends, why don’t you let me help Order Master Shi to take care of the flowers?”

“This… if you go to our Order Master’s place, I’m afraid it’s a little inconvenient. It’s better to wait for Beiran to return and let him come over.”

Hearing this, Zhang Heqing also felt a little regretful. However, it wasn’t just him. The other higher-ups also found it very difficult to get in touch with that mercurial woman.

“Sigh, sometimes I feel that it’s quite good to be a named disciple.” At this moment, Zhang Heqing was a little envious of Jiang Beiran and sighed in his heart.

At five o’clock, the competition had ended. Liu Zijin had lost in the fourth round, but she was already much stronger than the last round.

“Sister Zijin, your cultivation has improved too quickly, hasn’t it? It’s so amazing.” Fang Qiuyao looked at Liu Zijin with admiration in her eyes.

Fang Qiuyao’s cultivation had always been about the same as Liu Zijin’s, but ever since Liu Zijin became Yu Manwen’s disciple, Liu Zijin’s cultivation speed had increased a lot, as if she had been enlightened.

The three Yu sisters also surrounded Liu Zijin and congratulated her.

“Sister Zijin is really awe-inspiring today.”

“Did you see that Ye Xincai’s expression? Hehe, let’s see if she still dares to put on airs in front of us again.”

“That’s right, that’s right!”

After hearing this, Liu Zijin smiled and replied, “Alright, don’t praise me anymore. Your performance this time was also incredibly good.”

Yu Guimiao’s expression immediately collapsed when she heard that. In this competition, she was the only one among the five who lost in the second round. It was really quite miserable.

When Liu Zijin saw it, she immediately held her hand and comforted her, “Don’t be sad. Miaomiao, you’re just unlucky to have met Brother Fang. He’s an expert who entered the top eight.”

Although she was comforted a little, Yu Guimiao still couldn’t be happy.

At this time, Fang Qiuyao patted Yu Guimiao and said, “When we go back, I’ll practice with you. Next time, we’ll definitely defeat them

all.”

“Okay!” Yu Guimiao nodded firmly after hearing it.

In the stands, Yu Manwen stood up and said to Zhang Heqing, “It’s really a good match. Then I’ll go back first.”

Zhang Heqing heard this and quickly stood up and said, “Law Protector Yu, please wait.”

Yu Manwen stopped and turned around to ask, “Is there anything else?”.

“Uh…” Zhang Heqing took a deep breath and said, “Law Protector Yu, why don’t you stay. We can have a meal together so that we can talk about the next phase of our cooperation.”
