Opportunity
“But that’s something your father left you,” Jiang Shiyi warned earnestly. “Besides… this sword isn’t actually enough to exchange for the issues concerning the Bright Moon Sect.”
“I know I have no face to face him before I get my revenge.” Jiang Yingyue looked at Jiang Shiyi solemnly. “Therefore, this sword should be replaced with another one.”
Yes, Jiang Yingyue's initial goal was precisely this real question: "Since I can no longer wield a sword, I want to ask if there are any methods that can help me obtain other weapons?"
What do you want?
"A divine weapon just like the Thunder Sword." Jiang Yingyue's expression was very firm. You must know that of the four divine weapons that exist in the world, only the Thunder Sword currently has an owner. Just back then, when they went to Qihai to bring the sword out, the Heavenly Dao Alliance lost many people. Now, Jiang Yingyue actually wants to take another divine weapon by herself, which is almost impossible.
Jiang Shiyi also solemnly reminded her: "Each divine artifact is not as easy to obtain as you imagine. The location of a divine artifact is never valuable. The difficulty lies in how you manage to bring it out alive."
Seeing that Jiang Yingyue's eyes didn't even try to look away, it seemed she had really made up her mind. Jiang Shiyi sighed and said, "If you insist on asking this, then the Qingyun Sword will belong to Tingyu Tower."
Jiang Yingyue watched as her sword was sent away through the hidden compartment. That was the only time her expression changed. Soon, Jiang Shiyi said, "Four divine weapons: two knives, one sword, and one bow. If you can no longer use the sword, then you can only take the divine bow—Nine Heavens."
"Legend has it that Hou Yi once used the Nine Heavens Bow to shoot down the suns. His arrows hit the mark every time, and their power was unparalleled." Jiang Shiyi tapped the table twice with his fingers, and a sand table rose up, on which was a map of the Song Dynasty. "The location of the Nine Heavens is not mysterious. It is in Kuizhou. There is a Sun Peak Mountain there. It is right there."
“Kuizhou…” Jiang Yingyue pondered, “How far is it from Hangzhou?”
“If you travel day and night by water, it would take you at least a month,” Jiang Shiyi replied. “Moreover, you can’t do that. Bai Yu’s purpose in coming here today is definitely to find out your whereabouts.”
"Actually... I have a solution."
Putting aside what was happening inside, Ye Qingzhu and Ji Yinglei left and quickly began searching the building for suspicious individuals, but they found nothing.
"There's no one in the building, let's go back." Ji Yinglei turned to leave, but Ye Qingzhu stopped her, saying, "The building master is right, we should be cautious."
In truth, Ji Yinglei disliked Ye Qingzhu, but because Jiang Yingyue was willing to believe her, he eventually listened to her. Just as the two were about to go downstairs, a faint sound nearby immediately attracted Ji Yinglei's attention.
Her hearing was more sensitive than most people's, so the commotion just now was unlikely to have been caused by a cat. She gripped her sword and walked toward the box in the corner, but then she suddenly remembered that martial arts were forbidden in Tingyu Tower. If she made the first move, the situation might be unfavorable for them.
It was in that moment of hesitation that the person hiding there seized the opportunity, swiftly slicing the wooden box into pieces. With a flick of his pipa, the fragments flew towards Ji Yinglei. Fortunately, she reacted quickly and blocked them all with her Thunder Abyss Sword. Seeing this, Ye Qingzhu also drew her silver whip, ready to fight at any moment.
In the corner, the person slowly stood up. It was a boy of sixteen or seventeen, holding a sandalwood pipa in his hands, staring intently at the two of them.
