The Sword Guardian Mountain has been quite lively lately. Ever since Shi Qinxin took the Pulse Restoration Pill to restore her meridians and regain her sword, she has enjoyed chasing after everyone to challenge them to swordplay contests.
This also includes Tianning; Shi Qinxin would come whenever the story was getting interesting!
As a result, the third senior sister was chased and beaten up by the junior sister, and then she obediently followed the eldest senior brother and became a good girl, accepting the junior sister's instruction.
Second Senior Brother Jiang Xi can now draw talismans normally with a pen.
Even though he was blind, the memory of drawing talismans was etched into his bones. If his hand hadn't been injured and he couldn't hold a pen, he wouldn't have been unable to draw a single talisman for five years.
Knowing that it was his junior sister who remembered the recovery pill he had specially given her, he immediately laid out all his belongings in front of Tian Ning: "Thank you, junior sister! Take whatever you like, even all of it!"
"..."
If he hadn't said this while facing a tree in the yard, Tianning would have been moved.
"No need, Second Senior Brother. Didn't you give me a gift on my first day at Sword Guardian Mountain? Consider it a return gift from your junior sister to your second senior brother." Tian Ning didn't need anything and pushed everything back.
Jiang Xi was deeply moved. After returning home, she worked day and night to draw talismans, and within a few days, she had given Tian Ning a mustard seed bag full of talismans.
Tianning: "..."
What exactly is the second senior brother, this tentacle monster?
After returning to the Sword Protection Mountain, Tian Ning lived a comfortable life, reading storybooks and giving guidance to his senior brothers and sisters whenever he had free time, except for a small problem he encountered when turning in quests at the quest hall.
Tianning suddenly remembered that she hadn't turned in her mission yet. That day, she went to the mission hall to hand over the herbs she had picked in the secret realm to the disciples. After counting them, she exchanged them for points. As soon as she walked out of the mission hall, she was stopped by someone.
"You're Tian Ning, the one who got into the Ten Thousand Swords Sect through connections?"
The newcomer was a young man in white robes, who looked to be about the same age as Tian Ning. He was also dressed in the robes of a direct disciple, and his tone was unfriendly, clearly indicating that he had come to provoke them.
Behind the boy followed a number of disciples who were watching the spectacle, pointing at Tian Ning and discussing amongst themselves:
"So she's the one who bribed the sect with all sorts of favors, but only got a spot in the Sword Guardian Mountain where those good-for-nothings stayed—she got in through connections!"
"I heard she's the long-lost daughter of the Wen family. Compared to Junior Sister Xue'er, she's worlds apart!"
"You don't know, my second aunt's aunt's wife is doing chores at Wen's house. She says that she often bullies Junior Sister Xue'er. If it weren't for Junior Sister Xue'er's kind nature..."
"My God! How dare she not look in the mirror?"
...
These people made no attempt to hide their words from Tianning's face.
The white-robed youth looked coldly at Tian Ning, making no attempt to hide his contempt, and said mockingly, "I am Xie Xingzhi, a new disciple of Master Xuyu. I heard that you deliberately bullied my Senior Sister Xue'er at the Wenren Mansion, so I have come here today to invite Junior Sister Tian Ning to a duel on the martial arts stage!"
"If you lose, you'll have to kneel down and apologize to my Senior Sister Xue'er!"
Is it a facade for a real person?
So it turns out he was a disciple of Wenren Xue, that cheap master.
The Ten Thousand Swords Sect forbids its disciples from fighting amongst themselves, but they are allowed to spar on the dueling platform. This was all premeditated and deliberately arranged...
Tianning genuinely felt that they were very idle. Every time Wenren Xue's sycophants came to her door to cause trouble, they would talk to themselves.
As if afraid that Tian Ning would refuse, Xie Xingzhi spoke again: "You're not afraid to fight me, are you? Well, you're just a piece of trash, only fit to stay in a pile of trash like Wanjian Mountain!"
This kind of reverse psychology is really low-level.
Tian Ning looked at him speechlessly and said something that no one expected: "Fighting is fine, but I don't like fighting with brainless people, because idiocy is contagious."
"..."
Everyone thinks she was calling Xie Shidi an idiot, right? But they have no proof...
Xie Xingzhi asked, "What would it take for you to be willing to fight me?"
Tianning: "Okay, if you can answer a few of my questions to prove you have a brain and aren't mentally challenged, I'll agree to fight you."
