He happened to see that sword strike as well.
Moreover, I was filled with amazement.
Then the memories came back, and her eyes lit up without her noticing.
A faint smile appeared on her lips as she began to talk to her shadow.
"Do you know how beautiful and unparalleled that sword strike was tonight?"
"That sword strike cut off the moonlight and cleaved the stars."
"The whole city was unknowingly caught up in a drunken dream because of this."
Fei Jie imitated Su Yu's sword dance.
He also muttered those few exciting words under his breath.
"..."
"The so-called peerless is heaven and earth, past and tomorrow."
"There will never be another like him, nor another like his sword!"
Despite this sword strike, these words.
The imitation by Fei Jie is somewhat hard to describe.
But the shadow can be imagined.
The scholar's sword dance must have been absolutely stunning.
The young man in white was so refined and dignified.
Dancing with a sword under the moonlight.
A gentle breeze blows, and clothes flutter in the wind.
How could it not be the most beautiful scenery on earth?
With a single sword stroke, he cleaved the sun, moon, and stars.
Why isn't he a celestial being banished from heaven to the mortal realm?
The shadow suddenly smiled.
so good.
A young scholar's sword should be like this.
Fei Jie's eyes lit up as he listened to the shadow.
He smiled and added.
"Now, everyone in Kyoto calls Su Yu the Sword God."
Shadow spoke with an unusual seriousness.
"He deserves this title."
Just a moment later, a pang of sadness welled up in my heart.
He's got all the nice names: Divine Doctor, Sword God.
He himself was the number one assassin of the prestigious Qing Kingdom.
It also makes a sword.
Why didn't they make a Sword God?
And that same old rhetoric.
Heaven and earth, past and tomorrow.
There will never be another person like him, nor another sword like him.
Why didn't I think of that?
Shadow shook his head and gave a self-deprecating bitter laugh.
His identity, his experiences, and his goals were predetermined.
Before killing that person, his life would ultimately remain in darkness.
I'm just living like a shadow.
So, he genuinely envied scholars.
……
The Royal Palace of Qing Kingdom.
The inner palace is a different place from the hustle and bustle of the daytime.
Night had long since fallen, and the palace was now completely silent.
The moonlight, like water, spilled onto the rooftops and courtyards of the palace.
It emitted a soft halo.
It draped everything in this deep palace in a layer of silver gauze.
The golden glazed tiles shimmered under the moonlight.
It can demonstrate the nobility and majesty of the royal family.
It also gives people a sense of tranquility and profoundness.
The Imperial Study was still brightly lit, as if it were daytime.
Emperor Qing remained lying on his side on the low couch.
He held a folded book in his hand, as if he were reviewing a memorial to the throne.
However, upon closer inspection, it becomes apparent that Emperor Qing's gaze was not on the memorial.
He was waiting for news from Ye Zhong.
I sent Ye Zhong to Su Yu's residence tonight to test the waters.
By now, the person should have arrived.
Emperor Qing swirled the teacup in his hand and took a sip.
He simply put down the memorial and walked out of the hall.
Eunuch Hou also turned around and stood outside the hall with Umbrella Qi.
They bowed their heads respectfully, ready to obey the emperor's orders.
Emperor Qing looked out of the palace with his deep eyes.
Wu Zhu's whereabouts were extremely important to him.
Whether it's Wu Zhu or the box he always carries with him.
These were all nightmares that Emperor Qing had been haunting for years.
This is also why he spent his days practicing archery in the imperial study and painstakingly developing breastplates.
He will not have peace of mind as long as Wu Zhu is not eliminated.
That is precisely why it is so important.
Therefore, they were willing to send Ye Zhong, even if it meant his death.
If the test revealed the result, Ye Zhong was still lucky to be alive.
Upon his return, he was reinstated and sent to infiltrate the military.
Ye Zhong was indeed a powerful expert of the ninth rank.
It is very useful.
Of course, it doesn't matter if you die.
On the contrary, it is more helpful.
After all, Ye Zhong's status speaks for itself.
He is Ye Liuyun's nephew.
Ye Zhongruo died at the hands of Wu Zhu.
Ye Liuyun thus formed a complete enmity with Wu Zhu.
Therefore, Ye Zhong was sent to test Wu Zhu.
This is something that is entirely beneficial and without any drawbacks.
Emperor Qing had already made up his mind before selecting the person.
A chess player who always thinks several moves ahead before making a single move.
It's impossible to just randomly pick someone to do the job.
In fact, every single one of his decisions...
I have never done anything arbitrarily.
Emperor Qing stood outside the palace gates, quietly waiting for Ye Zhong to send a message.
Or perhaps news of Ye Zhong has arrived.
Suddenly, a powerful and beautiful sword light appeared outside the palace.
Emperor Qing's deep eyes flickered slightly.
"What a beautiful sword strike."
Judging from the direction, it's near where Su Yu lives.
Ye Zhong must have already arrived there.
That sword strike.
Could it be Ye Zhong?
In just a moment, Emperor Qing shook his head.
