Chapter 490: Xianglan's Shadow and Jade Body

"Let's go." Yu Cang touched his head, "Let's go back to the hotel first... I'm so tired today."

Gu Jieshuang nodded: "Okay."

Just when a few people wanted to go back home, Yu Cang suddenly noticed that a figure appeared not far ahead.

He looked slightly surprised.

It is Emperor Chang'an.

Di Chang'an is still hiding the news that he has awakened, so since he appeared in front of him on his own initiative... he must be looking for him.

So he stepped forward.

"The Emperor's myth." Yu Cang said.

Beside him, Gu Jieshuang's eyes narrowed.

This is... Emperor Chang'an?

She was not present when Yu Cang went to see Di Chang'an, and she had already fallen asleep when Lingxiao Tower appeared.

Therefore, this was the first time that he saw with his own eyes Di Chang'an, the powerful man who single-handedly restored the myth of Jiuzhou and opened up a peaceful and prosperous era for Yan Kingdom.

For a moment, she felt her heartbeat speed up slightly.

Shenhua... Shenhua looked like an ordinary person... Standing in front of him didn't give me the oppressive feeling I'd imagined... Aside from his outstanding temperament, he looked like an ordinary middle-aged man...

Who would have thought that such a middle-aged man could release enough power to destroy the Blue Planet when he used all his strength?

Gu Jieshuang was very excited.

Myth! Alive!

Although he knew that Ye Lai and Chao Ci, the people he met on a daily basis, were also myths, for various reasons, Gu Jieshuang had no real sense of reality. This was the first time Gu Jieshuang had seen this living, flourishing figure who had created the myth of his own era.

But, surprisingly... According to common sense, if she had seen the real Shinhwa in the past, her aloof demeanor would have been broken no matter what, and she would have most likely turned into a fangirl on the spot, but now...

Although she was very excited, underneath that excitement she was calmer than she could have imagined.

Indeed, Di Chang'an is a man of great strength, but now, the excitement in her heart mostly comes from the deeds he left in Yan State, rather than his strength.

She had a vague understanding in her heart.

After being with the boss for such a long time, my vision has been forced to be raised to an exaggerated level... If I want to stay with the boss forever, the mythical realm is only the most basic!

Therefore, Di Chang'an's back is not and must not be out of reach, and I must surpass it.

She immediately took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and said, "Hello, Emperor Shenhua."

Di Changan looked at Gu Jieshuang, and a hint of praise flashed in his eyes: "That sword in front of Lingxiao Tower was amazing."

It emits the light of heaven and hides the cold light, and will become a giant god to open the long sunshine.

It's been a long time since I've seen such a young man with such great momentum.

Although Yu Cang's existence has somewhat dimmed her brilliance, Gu Jieshuang is already worthy of being called a genius who leads an era.

Perhaps... this child also has a chance to become a god.

After all, with chaos coming, it's normal to have more geniuses.

However, upon hearing this, Gu Jieshuang, who had originally controlled her emotions, was slightly stunned, and then her eyes became visibly desolate.

"You...you were there too?"

Woohoo…then Shinhwa saw this middle school scene…

"I guess so."

He and returning home are one.

Di Changan didn't hesitate to praise him. "I've read your information... You're worthy of being Senior Zhongqiu's last disciple. You're worthy of the title of Junior Master of the Zhong Family."

"This, this... I... I..." After being praised so harshly by Shenhua, Gu Jieshuang was so panicked that she didn't know how to respond.

Seeing her like this, Di Changan couldn't help but smile.

It’s great to be young.

Since he appeared in front of Gu Jieshuang, it meant that he had already recognized her.

Yu Cang also smiled and shook his head, reached out and held Gu Jieshuang's soft hand.

Di Chang'an then said, "Jie Shuang—I'll call you that. Are you pursuing the path of borrowing the sword intent of others? Right now, there happen to be two sword intents that seem to be of use to you."

"Oh?" Yu Cang raised his brows slightly.

Gu Jieshuang also paused and raised his head.

Sword intent!

There is no need to say much about the preciousness of this power. Now, there are actually two of them?

Could it be Emperor Chang'an...

Looking at the two people's eyes, Di Chang'an shook his head: "I am not a swordsman, and I don't know sword intent. Speaking of which, I was able to discover this sword intent thanks to you."

Yu Cang was stunned: "Ah? Us?"

"Yes." Di Chang'an nodded, "Now... Yaoqi and Jie Ting of the Bloodline Empire have been killed by Yu Cang. Without them, the Bloodline Empire no longer poses any threat to the Association... and Wu Chen is also willing to cooperate with the Intake Bureau in conducting various experiments, so the Bloodline Empire is already under our control.

"However, due to the erosion of Yaoqi, the Emperor's Seal has been severely damaged. Forcibly destroying the Bloodline Empire will only destroy this myth. Therefore, we can only take it step by step. Fortunately, we have enough time, and now the Bloodline Empire can no longer affect the lifespan of the hybrids."

Upon hearing this, Gu Jieshuang's eyes immediately showed joy.

Really?

Although he had expected this result, he was still delighted when he heard the exact news.

What surprised her was not anything else, but that the life expectancy problem of mixed-race people had finally been completely solved!

Previously, although due to the intervention of the Reception Bureau, there were very few blood conflicts among mixed-bloods, but there are always loopholes in a hundred precautions, and there are still occasional cases of blood conflicts... Moreover, the Bloodline Empire has been trying to break the blockade of the Reception Bureau. How can one guard against thieves for a thousand days?

Now, this big rock has finally landed firmly on the ground, which is certainly worth Gu Jieshuang's joy!

At this time, Di Chang'an continued, "I checked the status of the Emperor's Seal... With the national oath sworn by Emperor Wu, I can't forcibly remove the Emperor's Seal. However, this does confirm the rumor - the Emperor's Seal is the scabbard of Emperor Wu's Emperor Sword!"

At this point, Di Changan looked at Gu Jieshuang: "And within the scabbard... I discovered a sword intent—the sword intent of Emperor Wu!"

Hearing this, Gu Jieshuang's eyes widened slightly.

Emperor Wu... Yes, the mythical totems he controls are all swords. As a myth, how could he not know the meaning of sword?

In ancient times, the soul card system was not yet perfect, and the sword intent could not be preserved well... and others could not learn it, so it is rare to discover the sword intent of ancient times now.

But, the Emperor's Seal is somewhat special after all, and it seems reasonable that it can preserve the sword intent?

"Although I can't take out the Emperor's Seal right now...but it shouldn't be a problem to sense the sword intent through Wu Chen." Di Chang'an said, "If you need it, I can arrange for you to comprehend it."

Ever since he learned about the sword intent... Gu Jieshuang has been completely fascinated by it.

It’s so cool, handsome, strong, and has a high ceiling. Who wouldn’t love it?

She, Gu Jieshuang, was born to learn the sword!

But this time, Gu Jieshuang smiled gently.

"Forget it... Let's talk about it after the Emperor's Seal is taken out."

Her reason for rejecting the offer was simple.

Wu Chen is currently the only channel connecting to the Bloodline Empire. If she wants to comprehend the sword intent, she must go through Wu Chen's body - sensing someone else's body is quite impolite and ambiguous.

She is not alone now. Since she is Yu Cang's girlfriend, she naturally has to take his feelings into consideration.

She is a pure love warrior!

This wasn't love-sickness; it was what she should do... Besides, she was almost unable to comprehend the Spring and Autumn Sword Intent in her hands, so how could she have the leisure to look for other mythical sword intents?

He also firmly believed that if he followed his boss, the mythical sword intent would not be so rare.

So, she chose to refuse.

Yu Cang turned his head to look at Gu Jieshuang, as if he had guessed what she was thinking. He smiled slightly and held her hand tighter.

This thing called sword intent... is rare to others, but not necessarily to him.

With the term [Sword Intent], the amount of sword intent in his hand depends only on luck and the upper limit of Gu Jieshuang's perception speed.

However, Gu Jieshuang didn't know this, so Yu Cang was still very moved.

In response to Gu Jieshuang's reaction, Di Changan just smiled and shook his head, but he was not surprised.

"That's fine—but you shouldn't have any reason to refuse the second sword intent."

Gu Jieshuang was stunned: "What?"

"The owner of this sword intent is a remarkable woman." Di Chang'an's eyes narrowed, as if recalling something. "But allow me to keep this secret for now - at the latest in half a month, you will have the opportunity to comprehend this sword intent."

"Is that so?" These words made Gu Jieshuang feel itchy in her heart.

A brand new sword intent... this was too tempting for her!

However, have there been any sword masters in history?

No, judging by Di Chang'an's tone, this "strange woman" might still be alive... Woman... Could she be the female swordsman from Haiting? Does she also possess sword intent?

For a moment, all kinds of speculations flashed through Gu Jieshuang's mind. She wanted to know the truth of the matter immediately, but seeing that Di Chang'an had no intention of telling her, she could only give up.

Ah, time is getting hard!

After talking to Gu Jieshuang, Di Changan turned to look at Yu Cang and smiled meaningfully: "Yu Cang...how was it, did you enjoy it just now?"

“…”

This sudden sentence left Yu Cangwen speechless.

“…It’s really embarrassing.”

The floor of this Linfeng Hotel is really hard.

He couldn't even curl his toes.

Performing the Dragon King's classic drama in front of so many strangers really tested his psychological endurance.

Di Changan patted Yu Cang's shoulder and said, "Look at you, you're so old-fashioned at such a young age... This was the time when you should have been full of energy and spirit. You should have enjoyed it."

Yu Cang smiled helplessly: "Stop joking with me."

"Yu Cang, I have to say something about you." Di Chang'an feigned displeasure. "We're considered acquaintances... Why are you still exchanging these words? If it gets out, people will think that the two legends of Yan Nation are not familiar with each other."

Yu Cang swallowed.

This statement completely makes him look like a myth.

"I will definitely pay attention..."

"Don't let me hear any more honorifics." Di Chang'an smiled. "Speaking of which, what are you going to do with the Duan family?"

When the Duan family was suddenly mentioned, Yu Cang's heart moved.

But his face remained expressionless.

"What does Shinhwa think?"

"This matter concerns you, so naturally you make the decision."

"...I promised Duan Feng." Yu Cang said, "Duan Zhang and Duan Ao...put them in jail. As for the others, deal with them according to the law."

Di Changan nodded and said nothing.

Yu Cang's words determined the fate of most people in the Duan family.

Without his words, Duan Zhang would have died, without a doubt...but whether he died in the trial or due to personal vendetta was not certain.

There was obviously some selfishness in Yu Cang's words, but Di Changan didn't dislike it. What's more, this selfishness was reasonable and legal, and it did have visible benefits.

Just think of it as letting Duan Feng make amends for Duan Zhang's crime.

"There's one more thing." Di Chang'an said, "The Chengying Sword... is still with you, right?"

"Yes, I do."

Yu Cang raised his palm, and many rhythmic lines appeared on his skin.

"Do you want to keep it?"

"No need." Yu Cang shook his head. "This sword is of no use to me - but can I borrow it to meditate on it for a few days?"

It’s really useless, he’s not a swordsman... If I give it to Gu Jieshuang, she won’t be able to use it either.

This is just a part of the "Four Seas Dragon Ruins". If taken alone, it is not that powerful.

But the entries can indeed be extracted.

Seven days, there is a myth.

"Of course, no problem." Di Chang'an said, "Since you don't want it, then just wait until you finish your contemplation and give it to Ao Hai. I've told him to treat you well these next few days. Whether you can get Chengying back depends entirely on whether he can get you to give in."

"Is that so... I understand." Yu Cang was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"Okay, that's all right." Di Changan waved his hand. "I wish you a wonderful evening. Goodbye."

After saying that, his figure disappeared from the spot.

After a moment's silence, Gu Jieshuang spoke angrily: "Is this a myth..."

"Well - let's go, the weather is getting a bit cold, let's go back to the hotel first."

…

Xuanhao Hotel

I swiped the card to open the door, and a figure was already waiting inside.

In the darkness, only Lin Yunqing's personal terminal was glowing - she was reading a paper.

Yu Cang was stunned: "Yun Qing?"

"You're back." Lin Yunqing turned his eyes away from the terminal and pushed up his glasses. "I've been waiting for you for a long time."

"What's the matter?" Yu Cang asked curiously.

"...It's okay." Lin Yunqing stood up and took a deep breath.

It was as if he had made some crucial decision in his life.

Then, she stepped forward resolutely, under the curious gazes of Yu Cang, Gu Jieshuang, and Qi'er.

He walked past Yu Cang with an expressionless face, picked up Qi'er, tucked him under his armpit, and then turned and left.

"Qi'er will sleep with me tonight."

Bang.

The door was closed.

Yu Cang:?

Gu Jieshuang: ...

Yu Cang was puzzled: "What are you doing?"

Lin Yunqing's operation was so smooth, so smooth that before he could even react, the door was closed.

Looking at Qi'er's confused expression, it was obvious that she didn't react either.

Gu Jieshuang didn't know what she was thinking about, and her cheeks turned slightly red.

Her eyes couldn't help but turn to the side: "Maybe... maybe Yun Qing likes Qi'er too much... maybe."

"...It's possible." Yu Cang sighed helplessly, "But even so, we have to make things clear... Well, Qi'er likes Yun Qing very much, so let them get along well."

"Ahem." Gu Jieshuang coughed lightly and pushed Yu Cang into the bathroom. "Go take a shower... You've sweated a lot today."

"good."

…

After Yu Cang finished washing, Gu Jieshuang rushed into the bathroom in a hurry.

It seems that he is also tortured by the sweat on his body.

Yu Cang didn't care. He sat on the bed, took out the "Tyrant's Designation" and the formation writing pen, and began to think.

How to simplify this soul card...

As I was thinking, time passed slowly.

…

At a certain moment, he suddenly felt the light dim - it seemed that Gu Jieshuang had finished taking a shower and turned off the other lights in the room - but the bedside lamp above his head was still on.

Yu Cang didn't care and continued to think while looking at the soul card in his hand.

Some time passed.

Suddenly, he felt a fragrant breeze blowing towards his nose... and then, a soft body came in and hugged his waist tightly.

He was stunned.

This...what's going on...

"boss."

Gu Jieshuang's stammering voice could be heard faintly.

"I slept too much during the day and I couldn't sleep..."

As if realizing something, Yu Cang swallowed.

"So, what do you want to do?"

A wriggling movement.

Gu Jieshuang poked her head out from under the quilt, looking at Yu Cang with her watery eyes.

"Stop looking at the Soul Card...just look at me, okay?"

"……hiss."

Yu Cang took a breath of cold air.

At this moment, he finally understood why Lin Yunqing wanted to take Qi'er away.

Although.

But the atmosphere has reached this point.

"good."

…

Crash...

…

Before taking the last step, Gu Jieshuang suddenly pushed Yu Cang.

"That..." The girl bit her lip lightly, "This isn't meat... I'll pay you back the money I owe you..."

Yu Cang couldn't help but smile: "Of course, you can't escape."

…

It is said that.

The fragrant orchid's shadow fills the jade body, and the feathered palace hides its sound without knowing the cold.
