Chapter 156 - 156 Please
156 Please
Baili Yin’s heart was as clear as a mirror. He naturally knew that Kang Wang was deliberately provoking him to fight with Chu Yi.
But so what?!
Kang Wang and Chu Yi, the uncle and nephew, were not on good terms. They fought endlessly and caused chaos in the royal court of the State of Jin. This was what the State of Yue was happy to see.
Otherwise, why would they let Chu Yi back so easily?
Baili Yin stared at Gu Yanfei’s exquisite face with a smile.
Beauties were just pleasing to the eye.
However, a beauty was always just a pastime. Just like this fine wine, it would be over if he tried it and enjoyed it.
Gu Yanfei and Baili Yin looked at each other from afar and took in each other’s subtle emotions.
She could see the superiority and contempt in his eyes.
It was just like when those male cultivators with high cultivation levels looked at the female cultivators who were trying to attach themselves to them in the Bright Spirit Realm.
Gu Yanfei did not like it at all.
In the Bright Spirit Realm, no one could force her.
It was the same here!
“Yes.” Gu Yanfei raised her chin and said calmly, “I don’t like it.”
As she said these three words, she exuded an oppressive aura. Her arrogance was like frost, making people feel that she was beyond their reach.
“This knife is not as good as my sword.” She reached for the sword at her waist. “If you don’t believe me, you can try!”
Meeting Gu Yanfei’s cold eyes, Baili Yin’s smile deepened. He laughed again and said frivolously, “Then I do have to ‘try’.”
“This feeling…”
There was a double meaning in his words. It was as if he was testing a sword or a person.
The teasing intent in Baili Yin’s words was obvious.
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, a silver light flashed. Gu Yanfei’s short sword had already been unsheathed and swung out.
Her movements were free and easy, as fast as lightning. It was almost difficult to catch with the naked eye.
The middle-aged man felt a silver flash in front of him, and his forehead turned cold.
Then a few wisps of fine hair fell from his eyes.
He still did not know what was going on. He looked confused and afraid, but the others could clearly see that one of his eyebrows was missing.
There was an uproar.
Gu Yanfei had casually cut off one of this person’s eyebrows.
This strike was just right. If it had gone any lower, it would have pierced the man’s eyes.
If it was any deeper, it would have cut his skin.
Several people who were good at wielding swords were secretly shocked.
If not for the fact that Gu Yuan still had a trace of rationality to remember that he was working, he would have clapped and cheered.
He secretly thought that when he returned to the capital, he would have to find a few scoundrel friends and beat up Baili Li.
“How is it?” Gu Yanfei casually twirled her sword and raised it to point at Baili Yin in front of her. She asked with a smile, “Do you still want to try?”
Baili Yin’s eyes turned cold. The two of them were clearly far apart, but he seemed to be able to feel the coldness of the sword light.
Chu Yi looked at Gu Yanfei almost directly, his jade-like face gentle.
Under his long lashes, his dark eyes suddenly rippled like spring water, and his gaze darted to the familiar short sword.
She was quite handy with his sword.
Suddenly, he smiled, as if pleased by something.
“Knock, knock.”
Chu Yi clenched his right hand into a fist and knocked on the table twice, attracting the attention of the others in the shed.
Chu Yi nodded seriously. “Indeed, it can’t be compared.”
His words were light but meaningful.
“Oh?” Baili Yin narrowed his eyes, still smiling.
Chu Yi continued, “Third Prince Baili’s Persian scimitar is flashy but useless.”
“It can’t compare to this sword. It’s made of cold iron and was forged by the swordsmith, Ouyang Jun, after three years and painstaking efforts.”
Baili Yin stroked his square chin and teased, “Young Master Yi, you’re so familiar with this sword. Have you seen it before?”
“Of course,” Chu Yi said matter-of-factly. His phoenix eyes curled slightly as he smiled.
His smile was so warm and elegant, and his dark eyes were calm.
“…” Baili Yin choked. He met Chu Yi’s gaze and felt an inexplicable chill. The hair on his neck stood on end.
Two young men of similar age and different appearances looked at each other, as if they were in a smokeless battle.
Chu You drank leisurely at the side, as if it had nothing to do with him.
Outside the shed, the warm sun hung in the sky, flickering with a resplendent golden light. Even the interior of the shed was illuminated by the sunlight.
