When the flying boat passed over Wucheng, Gong Cang stepped down from the high platform and walked in front of Leng Yan and Qin Du. Gong Cang looked at Leng Yan and said, "Yan'er is gone."
Leng Yan and Qin Du stood up and followed Han Qing down from the flying boat. As the three of them landed on the ground, their faces changed. Their faces became ordinary.
Entering Wucheng, the three of them headed straight for the Sword Pond. People were constantly coming in and out of the entrance to the Sword Pond.
The Sword Pond was owned by the Wanyu Pavilion, and cultivators who entered the Sword Pond to draw their swords had to pay a thousand mid-grade spirit stones. Leng Yan and the Wanyu Pavilion's head were old acquaintances, which was why Leng Yan had brought Qin Du to the Sword Pond to draw his swords.
Leng Yan walked forward, took out a jade token, and handed it to the disciples standing guard on both sides, saying, "Please inform them that I would like to see the headmaster of Wanyu Pavilion." The disciple took the jade token and confirmed that it was specially made by Wanyu Pavilion. The disciple returned the jade token to Leng Yan and extended a hand in a gesture of invitation, saying, "Dear guest, please come in. The headmaster has been busy with sect affairs recently. Please wait a moment. I will go and invite him."
Leng Yan nodded and said, "Thank you very much." After the disciple left, Leng Yan and the other two sat in the room waiting. At this time, Gong Cang asked, "Yan'er, would you like some tea?" Leng Yan nodded.
Gong Cang took out the teapot and teacups from the tea tray on the table. He poured three cups and handed one to Leng Yan, then another to Qin Du, and finally took the remaining cup himself. At this time, Leng Yan said, "Gong Cang, let me switch with you."
Qin Du, who had seen all of Leng Yan's actions, remained silent. Gong Cang was stunned at first, then agreed. After the teacup was exchanged, Gong Cang picked it up and was about to drink, but when the cup was brought in, Gong Cang seemed to smell something.
He put down the teacup and looked up at Leng Yan. Leng Yan noticed Gong Cang's gaze and looked up at Gong Cang with a warning look.
Gong Cang knew that Leng Yan had noticed what he was about to do. He withdrew his gaze, then picked up the teacup and drank the tea in it. Leng Yan didn't care at all after seeing this. She knew that if Gong Cang ate the Gu he had raised himself, it would not have any effect on him.
After finishing their cups of tea, the three of them continued to sit and wait for the Wanyu Pavilion's leader. After waiting for a while, Leng Yan and Gong Cang noticed someone coming and both looked towards the door. Qin Du saw them both looking towards the door and guessed that it must be the Wanyu Pavilion's leader.
Yun Wanshan was stunned when he saw the unfamiliar face after entering the room, but he understood after sensing the familiar aura of Leng Yan.
Leng Yan saw Yun Wanshan come in and immediately stood up and saluted him, saying, "Greetings, Sect Leader Yun." Yun Wanshan waved his hand and said, "Friend Leng, we're old acquaintances, so why bother with formalities?" He then looked at the two people behind Leng Yan and asked, "Friend Leng, who are these two...?"
After hearing this, Leng Yan said to Yun Wanshan, "These two are Elder Gong Cang of the Qingyuan Sect and my junior fellow apprentice Qin Du."
After that, the three of them removed their disguises, revealing their true appearances. Yun Wanshan looked at Gong Cang's familiar face and stepped forward to salute, saying, "So it's Elder Gong Cang. My apologies!" Gong Cang returned the salute, saying, "Master Yun, don't worry too much about me. I'm here to accompany Yan'er."
After hearing this, Yun Wanshan invited the three of them to sit down. He then looked at Leng Yan and asked, "I wonder what brings you here today, young friend Leng?" Leng Yan replied, "I'm here to find a good spiritual sword for my junior brother. I wonder if there are any good swords in your sect's spiritual sword pool?"
Yun Wanshan smiled and said, "So this is why Young Master Leng came here. There are indeed some good swords in the Sword Pond. Young Master Leng, have you forgotten the swords that were born in the Sword Pond because of you? They were all top-notch swords, but it's a pity that you only took away two of them back then?"
Leng Yan asked in surprise, "Has no one been able to pull out those swords in all these years?" Yun Wanshan nodded.
Back then, Leng Yan could have taken away all the spirit swords that were born because of her, and Yun Wanshan was also prepared. But he didn't expect that Leng Yan, who was only eleven years old at the time, looked at him and said calmly, "Master Yun, how about a deal?"
At that time, Yun Wanshan had already anticipated what would happen after Leng Yan took away those spiritual swords. When he heard this, his heart suddenly rekindled, and he hurriedly asked, "What deal?"
Leng Yan looked at him calmly and said, "I will take two of the unearthed spiritual swords with me. I will leave the rest in the sword pool. Sect Leader Yun can do whatever he wants with them. However, if I need anything in the future, Sect Leader Yun must fully cooperate. Is that feasible?"
At that time, Yun Wanshan looked at Leng Yan, who exuded a calm and composed aura, and nodded in agreement. Because of the three spiritual swords Leng Yan had left in the Sword Pond, more and more cultivators came to the Sword Pond to draw their swords. As a result, Wanyu Pavilion grew increasingly powerful, becoming the fifth-ranked sect in the world of cultivation today. As a result, Leng Yan became a distinguished guest of Wanyu Pavilion.
Yun Wanshan knew very well in his heart that Leng Yan was his savior, although she was called an honored guest. However, Leng Yan at that time was determined not to accept the title of savior, nor the benefits promised by Yun Wanshan. She only wanted a promise from Yun Wanshan.
A promise that Wanyu Pavilion would fully cooperate and help her when she needed help from it.
At that time, Yun Wanshan knew very well that Leng Yan was a disciple of Wen Shi, the strongest cultivator in the world. There was nothing she couldn't get. Leng Yan was just trying to comfort him. But Yun Wanshan still agreed.
Thinking of this, Yun Wanshan looked at Leng Yan with gratitude. Then, Yun Wanshan thought about how many cultivators had come to try and pull out the three spirit swords over the years, but without exception, no one had been able to pull out any of them. Yun Wanshan worried that if this continued, no one would come to the Sword Pond.
Leng Yan saw Yun Wanshan's worry and comforted him, "Master Yun, don't worry. Since I need your help this time, I won't let you lose money." Yun Wanshan understood what Leng Yan meant and thanked her immediately.
