Chapter 1876: Chapter 932: Baby (Part 1)

Young Master Mingyue furrowed his brows, evidently quite conflicted about what he was about to say.

"You don’t have to say it if you don’t want to, but I can’t give you the sword." Xiao Hen extended his hand, gesturing as if to take the sword back.

Young Master Mingyue hurriedly clutched the sword in his arms: "I’ll speak!" 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Gu Jiao said fiercely, "Speak quickly, or I’ll beat you!"

Young Master Mingyue suppressed his anger. He was now growing weaker, not a match for this girl. In the current situation, he had no choice but to bow his head.

"Have you heard of Jianlu?" he asked.

The young couple nodded in unison.

When Gu Jiao went to the eastern border pass of Yan Country to attack Liang Country and Jin Country, she repeatedly clashed with people from Jianlu. After the war was over and Jin Country surrendered, there was no further news about the people of Jianlu.

It was uncertain if this Jianlu was the same as that Jianlu.

Young Master Mingyue said, "My master is the owner of Jianlu, that is, the head of Jianlu. This sword, called the Black Moon, is the token of the head. The reason I’m here in Zhan Country is because there’s a traitor in Jianlu who fled with the sword. I’m here to find its whereabouts. But who would have thought, just as I found it, that stinking monk would snatch it away."

Gu Jiao said, "Are you talking about Liao Chen? Liao Chen didn’t steal your sword, he just picked it up."

Young Master Mingyue said, "I don’t believe it."

Gu Jiao chuckled, "Believe it or not, it’s up to you."

Young Master Mingyue hesitated to speak again.

Chasing after that monk’s actions really had no meaning; the important thing was that the Black Moon had been found, and he could finally return to Jianlu.

Gu Jiao asked again, "How many Jianlu are there in the world?"

Young Master Mingyue replied without hesitation, "There’s only one." Connecting it with something, he added, "But it doesn’t rule out some small factions using the name of Jianlu to deceive people."

Gu Jiao touched her delicate little chin, "Is the Jianlu colluding with the Jin Country royal family your Jianlu?"

Young Master Mingyue was slightly taken aback, "Jin Country royal family? Ah, you’re talking about that, well, sort of. That’s a branch of our Jianlu, only two people are from the inner sect."

Gu Jiao: "Shitian and Dark Soul?"

"You know them?" Young Master Mingyue was surprised.

Gu Jiao thought to herself, it’s more than knowing, I’m extremely familiar with them.

I’ve crossed swords with Dark Soul; I’ve snapped pens with Shitian!

No wonder Long Yi and Dark Soul were so formidable, yet those Jianlu experts at the border pass were so weak. It turns out only the two of them were inner sect disciples.

Young Master Mingyue snorted, "The Jianghu doesn’t know there’s a distinction between the inner and outer sects of Jianlu. You just got lucky meeting me, otherwise, you wouldn’t have known in a lifetime that the Jianlu dealing with Jin Country is just a branch."

Gu Jiao was puzzled, "Why would you collude with the Jin Country royal family?"

Young Master Mingyue’s face darkened, "It’s dealings, not collusion! I don’t know the specifics; it’s not my responsibility. But the two people you just mentioned, by seniority... perhaps I should call them senior brothers."

"Who’s older and who’s younger?" Gu Jiao asked.

Young Master Mingyue said, "Dark Soul is the eldest senior brother, Shitian is the youngest... now I’m the youngest. When they went to the branch, I was still young and never met them. I only heard some things about them from my master."

Gu Jiao nodded, "Continue."

Young Master Mingyue looked at her strangely, "Are you asking about the sword, or my senior brothers?"

Gu Jiao said, "Both. Why did they go to the branch?"

Young Master Mingyue thought for a moment, "It seemed they went to kill someone."

To kill Xuanyuan Qi, the second master of the Dark Soul.

Back then, Long Yi came to Zhan Country with such a mission.

It’s just that, for some reason, Long Yi abandoned his mission.

So Dark Soul took over, stayed at the branch, and secretly collaborated with the Jin Country royal family to execute the massacre of Xuanyuan Qi and the Shadow Division.

"Long Yi... I kind of miss him," Gu Jiao said softly.

Xiao Hen held her hand and didn’t speak.

He missed Long Yi too.

Missed him a lot.

Wondering if he has found the answer he seeks now.

"Are the questions over? Can I take the sword now?" Young Master Mingyue asked.

"Not yet." Xiao Hen took the sword over.

He said angrily, "You don’t keep your word!"

Xiao Hen said unhurriedly, "I only said if you answered to our satisfaction, we might consider it."

He gritted his teeth and said, "Then is there anything you’re dissatisfied with? I haven’t concealed anything at all!"

Xiao Hen said calmly, "We are satisfied, so we are now considering whether or not to give you the sword."

Young Master Mingyue felt he had been played and was very angry.

"Have you ever seen this?" Xiao Hen showed Gu Jiao’s sketch paper again.

He turned his face away, "Hmph! Why should I tell you!"

Xiao Hen said, "It seems you don’t want to get back your master’s sword."

Young Master Mingyue glared at him coldly, looked at the fanged mask on the sketch, and said, "I haven’t seen it."

Xiao Hen looked at him seriously, "Are you sure?"

He sighed, "It’s just a mask; if I’ve seen it, I’ve seen it. If not, then not. Why would I lie to you!"
