Chapter 308 The Sword God Visits
I don’t know if it’s Li Shiyin’s illusion, but it seems that the New Year atmosphere in Danyang City this year is particularly weak.
Danyang City is so big, with hundreds of thousands of people living there, but it feels deserted.
There are many people walking on the street, but few people speak loudly; there are voices, but it’s not lively enough.
“Strange…” Li Shiyin frowned and asked Li Shiwen, who was picking ornaments at a roadside stall, “Why are you all so serious?”
“What?” Li Shiwen picked up a hair accessory and turned back to ask Li Shiyin, “Do you think this looks good? Is it suitable for Zhenzhen?”
“Well, it looks good, and it’s suitable.” Li Shiyin said perfunctorily, pointing at the people on the street, “People on the street, everyone is very dull, why? The New Year is coming soon, aren’t you happy?”
Li Shiwen put the hair accessory on his head casually. He looked in the direction of Li Shiyin’s finger and saw that the people on the street were all worried.
Of course he knew what caused the people in Danyang City to become like this.
Because there was going to be a war.
Xuan Qin is becoming increasingly powerful and ambitious. Taking advantage of the fact that Northern Chu is weak due to the robbery, it will attack with cavalry. It will also win over Dayan and Yanhan, and teach these two neighboring countries to put pressure on Northern Chu. If this wave of Xuan Qin invasion is not handled well, Northern Chu will be in danger of extinction.
Li Shiwen smiled, but did not answer Li Shiyin's question. Instead, he pointed at himself and asked with a smile: "How is it, does it look good?"
He is a rough man of 1.9 meters wearing a girl's hair accessory, and he also gestured in a charming manner. It is as disgusting as it is scary.
"Hey, you are so disgusting!" Li Shiyin pouted and shook her head, reaching out to take off the hair accessory on Li Shiwen's head.
Li Shiwen let Li Shiyin take the hair accessory away, and continued to look for it on the stall.
While trying on other hair accessories, he casually asked: "When will you return to Daojianmen?"
"?" Hearing Li Shiwen ask this, Li Shiyin frowned.
Because her mother also asked her when she would go back a few days ago. In the past, they never asked about this, because this was her home, and she could stay as long as she wanted. But this year, one by one, they all came to ask her when she would leave, which was really strange.
"Let's talk about it after the New Year!" She replied, and asked Li Shiwen, "Why do you ask that too?"
Li Shiwen was stunned and asked, "Who else asked you?"
"Mom, she also asked me when I would go back to the mountains." "Oh..." Li Shiwen smiled, "Everyone cares about you, what's so strange?"
Li Shiyin shook her head, picked up a purple head flower from the stall and put it on her head, and said to Li Shiwen, "You bought it for Zhenzhen, and you have to buy it for me too."
"Haha!" Li Shiwen sneered, "Pay for it yourself..."
However, Li Shiyin didn't listen to him, took the head flower, turned around and got into the crowd, leaving Li Shiwen alone in the wind.
... He still had to pay.
The two siblings walked and stopped on the street, played for a whole morning, and went home at noon.
As soon as they entered the door, they saw the housekeeper waiting anxiously in front of the screen wall. Before they could ask, the housekeeper said to Li Shiyin in a hurry: "Miss, the Sword God has been waiting for you for a long time."
"Sword God?" Li Shiyin felt unfamiliar with this title at first, and then she realized that there was a Northern Chu Sword God Jiang Xiaobai, so she was very curious, "What is he waiting for me for?"
But it was useless for her to ask, how could the housekeeper know such a thing.
The Northern Chu Sword God was indeed very famous in the mortal world of Northern Chu. His arrival made the entire Li Mansion solemn, and the air was full of murderous aura.
Everyone in the mansion was on high alert. Although the soldiers who came down from the battlefield to become servants held weapons in their hands, there was fear in their eyes.
Li Zhan, although he was a general of Northern Chu and a person who could compete with Cheng Lixue; but when the Northern Chu Sword God came, he still overwhelmed the entire Li Mansion.
Along the way, everything she saw and heard was like facing a great enemy, which made Li Shiyin feel puzzled. She whispered to Li Shiwen: "Why are they so scared?"
Li Shiwen had seen Jiang Xiaobai's methods, so he was serious at this time. He replied: "That's the Sword God, who wouldn't be afraid?"
For Beichu, the word Sword God is enough.
"Didn't I tell you? He is very weak." Li Shiyin asked in confusion.
"I still remember the flying swords in the sky, killing thousands of soldiers in an instant." Li Shiwen shook his head, "This is the Sword God."
Li Shiyin rolled her eyes and asked Li Shiwen: "Are you afraid of me?"
"What are you afraid of?"
"I'm much better than him." Li Shiyin said seriously.
Li Shiwen looked at his sister a few more times. He knew that she was somewhat proud and complacent, so he warned her: "Shiyin, although you have some talent, although you were lucky enough to tie with the Sword God two years ago, you must remember to remain humble and respect and fear the strong and the seniors."
"Alas!" Li Shiyin sighed, "There is no hope for you."
As the brother and sister talked, they came to the door of the lobby for receiving distinguished guests. They looked inside and saw that only their father Li Zhan and the Sword God Jiang Xiaobai were there, and the two were talking.
Li Shiyin found that although her father Li Zhan was sitting in the main seat, his attitude was very low in his words and deeds.
This made her frown and feel very unhappy.
In Li Shiyin's eyes, Jiang Xiaobai was just a rookie who could be easily killed by her. But now, such a rookie came to her house to show off, and then really got the respect and fear of her father, brother and other people she cared about. Who can stand this? If other people in the cultivation world knew about it, where would she put her pretty face?
So the aura that Li Shiyin brought when she entered the room was already very wrong. She was no longer the eldest daughter of the Li family, but the peerless female swordsman.
Li Shiwen entered the room first and was about to salute, but suddenly felt a murderous aura behind him. Before he looked back, he was pushed aside by Li Shiyin who followed him into the room.
"What's the matter?" Li Shiyin stepped forward and questioned Jiang Xiaobai with a very high attitude.
Li Shiwen saw that this posture was not right, so he was eager to say something nice, and then he saw Li Zhan, who was sitting in the main seat, winking at him. He hesitated and still withdrew.
"Three years ago, a battle..." Jiang Xiaobai saw that Li Shiyin came with bad intentions, but he was not willing to admit defeat. He held the demeanor of a sword god, raised his chin, and confronted Li Shiyin, "We were evenly matched. Three years have passed, and I have recovered to my peak strength. How about we fight again?"
Just hearing Jiang Xiaobai's words, Li Shiyin wanted to laugh, and she was almost unable to maintain the persona of a cold swordsman.
First, no winner means that if they were not sparring, but fighting on opposite sides, he would be defeated by her instantly; second, it took him three years to get over that defeat, and he was so weak that he became a scum; finally, it took him three years to recover his original strength, while Li Shiyin, after three years, she couldn't even say how many times stronger she was.
Even so, Jiang Xiaobai still wanted to fight her.
In Daojianmen, people with Jiang Xiaobai's strength who wanted to challenge Li Shiyin had to line up from the main peak to the front of the mountain gate, but at home, Li Shiyin decided to give him face and said, "I'll give you a chance."
Li Shiyin's arrogant attitude made Jiang Xiaobai frown, but he finally nodded and said, "It's better to have a fight today than to choose a day!"
