Chapter 55 Navelette VS Chen Xin! Sword Dao Supreme! Tianshui City Terrifying!
The ancient and heavy city gate was wide open behind Navelette.
After saying "please," Navelette said no more and turned to walk into the mansion.
Qian Renxue and Chen Xin exchanged a glance, both seeing the lingering turmoil in each other's eyes.
"call..."
Chen Xin let out a long breath, and a fine layer of sweat seeped from his palm as he gripped the Seven Kill Sword.
As a peak Douluo of level 97, he had never lost his composure like this, not even when facing Qian Daoliu.
But just now, the instant the Crystal Ice Dragon Sword took shape, his proud Seven Kill Sword Intent trembled.
That was the fear that martial spirits instinctively felt.
It is submission to a higher level of power.
"Let's go, Uncle Jian."
Qian Renxue, after all, had undergone the test of the angels, and possessed extremely strong mental fortitude.
She quickly adjusted her facial expression, regaining the composure and elegance of a prince, but the curiosity in her golden eyes towards the silver-haired man in front of her intensified.
The two of them followed.
Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er followed obediently at the back, lovingly stroking their new artifacts, their joy barely concealed.
The group walked through the forecourt.
The layout of the city lord's mansion was surprisingly elegant.
It lacks the nouveau riche extravagance of the Heavenly Dou Imperial Palace, and exudes a sense of fluidity and clarity.
Water is drawn into the garden, and the winding stream is used for drinking games.
As soon as you step into the main hall, a delicate fragrance wafts over you.
It's not some expensive incense, but rather a sweet aroma similar to the aftertaste of a baked cake, mixed with the fragrance of black tea.
"Oh dear, we have guests?"
A vibrant voice rang out.
Beside the main seat in the main hall, a young girl was idly fiddling with the tea set on the table.
She wore a cute little hat and a well-tailored blue and white dress that accentuated her petite figure.
What's most striking are his heterochromatic eyes, like two of the most dazzling gems in the deep sea.
Funina.
The second-ranked player on the Sky Curtain Gold List, the holder of the "Calm Waves Judgment Edge".
Upon seeing Navelette return, Furnessa immediately perked up, jumped off her chair, and gave an exaggerated, less-than-perfect ladylike bow.
"Welcome back, my dear Supreme Judge."
"It seems that this performance, titled 'Shocking the World,' has come to a successful conclusion?"
Navilette calmly handed her cane to a maid standing nearby.
"It's just some necessary adjustments, nothing to do with a performance."
"I've kept you waiting."
Navelette walked to the head seat and sat down, gesturing for Qian Renxue and Chen Xin to take their seats as well.
Funina didn't mind Villette's indifference. She came over with a grin and looked Qian Renxue and Chen Xin up and down.
Then, she lowered her voice and muttered in a volume that seemed to be talking to herself, but which the powerful people present could just hear:
"It's really lively."
"We just saw off that black dragon and that green swan, and now an angel and an old man wielding a sword have arrived."
"The threshold of Tianshui City is probably going to be trampled flat today."
What was said unintentionally may have been taken to heart by the listener.
Qian Renxue, who had just settled into her seat, suddenly narrowed her eyes.
Black Dragon?
Green swans?
In Douluo Continent, the only ones who match these two characteristics are the two ferocious beast overlords of the Star Dou Great Forest!
Beast God Emperor Tian!
Emerald Swan Brigitte!
They have been to Tianshui City?
Moreover, judging from Funina's casual tone, it seems that the two had a conversation before she left peacefully.
A storm raged in Qian Renxue's heart.
The relationship between the Spirit Hall and the Spirit Beast Clan has always been one of irreconcilable enmity.
Especially in recent years, the two sides have clashed several times in order to hunt for spirit rings for Bibi Dong.
If Tianshui City and Xingdou Great Forest form some kind of alliance...
That would be a devastating blow to the Spirit Hall.
Chen Xin also heard this, but his focus was clearly not on the political landscape.
His gaze kept lingering on Funina, seemingly casually.
To be precise, it landed on the sword at Funina's waist.
Previously, it was revealed that Funina's reward was also a sword.
Moreover, he was ranked higher than him.
As a sword fanatic, Chen Xin's dedication to the way of the sword is deeply ingrained.
He came here partly to thank Navelette for protecting Shui Bing'er and the others, and partly to verify what he had in mind.
A maidservant served hot tea.
Navelette picked up her teacup, took a small sip, and her movements were as elegant as a textbook.
"You two have come from afar, may I ask what brings you here?"
He asked the question he already knew the answer to.
Chen Xin put down his teacup without beating around the bush.
He stood up, bowed slightly to Navelette and Funina, his attitude very proper.
"This old man, with worldly desires, wields the titled sword."
"I have come here today not only to thank you for your help in intimidating Tang Hao and rescuing me from this predicament, but also to make a request."
As she spoke, Chen Xin turned her gaze to Fu Ningna, who was adding sugar cubes to her black tea.
A fiery glint flashed in his eyes.
"When the sky appeared before, a shocking sword intent swept across the sky, causing my Seven Kill Sword to resonate."
"I have spent my whole life practicing swordsmanship, and I believe I have reached a bottleneck in the path of swordsmanship."
"Just now I saw Miss Funina pass the imperial examination with flying colors and her sword was extraordinary. I suppose that sword intent came from Miss Funina."
"May I ask for your guidance, Miss?"
Chen Xin spoke sincerely.
In his view, although Navelette was strong, the methods she had just displayed were more about the control and creation of elements.
That pure, extreme sharpness is more like the methods of a sword cultivator.
Therefore, he naturally assumed that Funina, who was also among the top on the list, was a peerless swordsman who was hiding her true abilities.
However.
The air suddenly became quiet for a few seconds.
Funina, who was about to put the small cake in her mouth, froze.
She blinked her large, heterochromatic eyes, looked at Chen Xin with some confusion, and then pointed to her nose.
"I?"
"swordsman?"
"Pfft—"
Fu Ningna couldn't help but burst out laughing.
She laughed and waved her hand, causing her little hat to tremble.
"Grandpa, you've got it wrong."
"Although I use a sword, I am not some swordsman who has painstakingly cultivated the way of the sword."
"To me, a sword is just a prop on a stage, or... well, a cake knife?"
Chen Xin was stunned.
Qian Renxue was also stunned.
Props?
A dinner knife?
Is this something a powerful person with a divine artifact should say?
After laughing enough, Funina calmed down a bit. She picked up a napkin and elegantly wiped her mouth, then extended her gloved hand and pointed to Navelette, who was sitting quietly in the main seat drinking tea.
"The sword intent you're looking for isn't mine."
"Look, the person in question is sitting right there."
"Whether it's the intent that shattered Tang Hao's sword just now, or the secrets within this sword, it's all the work of Vilette."
"If you want to learn about swordsmanship, asking me is like asking a blind man for guidance; you've come to the right person."
