“It’s such a coincidence that there’s also the word ‘Jun’ in his name,” the young girl across the table said.

She had been able to speak of a spirit vein calmly, but at this moment, she was completely restrained. Looking at the word ‘Jun’, her eyes were filled with complicated emotions.

Although her emotions could definitely be considered reserved and could be covered up in an instant, as a young girl, when she thought of the person in her heart, she would still reveal some emotions that were difficult to hide.

Duan Lanruo was not an inexperienced girl. She could tell at a glance that the person Ye Cike was talking about must be the one she liked.

It seemed that only the impulse and stubbornness in the pursuit of love would cause the Young Mistress of the Xuanyin family to go to such great lengths for a single person, even using the Skyring Sword as a condition for exchange.

This sword had been taken away from the Sword Pavilion by the Xuanyin family several hundred years ago.

When the forger of the Skyring Sword and the Young Mistress of the Xuanyin family fell in love, he was just an ordinary, unknown sword forger. The Xuanyin family did not accept men because of their unique constitution, and it gradually became an unspoken rule. This was especially so for the Young Mistress with the purest bloodline. Whether it was to maintain her purity or to maintain her strength, it was not advisable for her to get together with a man.

As a result, both sides were met with great obstacles. The forger worked hard and finally created one of the Ten Great Swords in the world, but the Xuanyin family maintained their pride and refused to allow their Young Mistress to become a cripple by being together with a man. In other words, once this precedent was set, there would be even more Xuanyin bloodlines flowing out, losing them, or being coveted.

In short, after a series of tragic events, the Skyring Sword was eventually left in the Sword Pavilion. The lover was eventually depressed and alone for the rest of his life. This incident had also caused some irreconcilable enmity between the two forces.

Although the two sides were now respectful to each other, in fact, their relationship was only maintained on the surface. Apart from the polite greetings, there was basically no other contact.

Returning the Skyring Sword could even be seen as lowering one’s head to express goodwill. To the Xuanyin family that Ye Cike represented, this was already a great concession. Adding on the spirit vein and mineral resources, it was basically giving them away for free.

The City of Ten Thousand Swords had no reason not to take this great deal.

Logically speaking, Duan Lanruo felt that she should immediately agree, but Ye Cike’s words caused a sliver of doubt to rise in the City Lord’s heart.

The person you want to trap with the myriad sword array has the word ‘Jun’ in his name?

What a coincidence, the ‘Jun’ I wrote represents a word in someone’s name.

How could there be such a coincidence?

Could there really be such a coincidence in this world?

As an elder who had experienced many things in life, the person in charge of the City of Ten Thousand Swords for many years, and a high-level Immortal cultivator at the Synthesis stage, Duan Lanruo had her own views and understanding of fate and coincidences.

In that instant, as her thoughts flew, she had an extremely bold thought-was the other party testing her?

As for why he was testing her, it was the boldest guess in her mind.

Could the person with the word ‘Jun’ in his name and the person in Duan Lanruo’s heart be the same person?

The City Lord of Ten Thousand Swords controlled his expression and muttered to herself, “If it was just for one person, why would we need to mobilize so many people and have the Young Mistress come here personally? With the strength of the Xuanyin family, isn’t it a very simple matter to capture a person?”

Ye Cike raised her head and sat up straight, “I’m not sure if I can catch him or not. Even the Ten Thousand Swords Formation might not be able to catch him. He seems to have a supernatural power that can come and go at any time outside of the law of space and time. Even cultivators at the crossing Calamity stage can’t lock onto his position.”

Duan Lanruo’s expression changed. “He’s… like a ghost? No matter when or where, he can suddenly appear out of thin air, and it’s the same when he leaves. When he disappears, no spell can be used to trace him, as if he has never appeared.”

Ye Cike was stunned for a moment, then she nodded and asked suspiciously, “City Lord Duan, how do you know so much about this? ”

Duan Lanruo suddenly realized that she had been too excited. She calmed herself down, picked up the teacup, and played with it as if she was trying to hide it. She smiled and said, “It’s nothing. I just suddenly remembered something after I encountered a similar situation.”

Encountered? Such a terrifying divine power that touched the power of the laws of heaven and earth. Even the ancestors of the family were powerless, and she had actually encountered a second one?

How could there be such a coincidence?

Could there really be such a coincidence in this world?

Ye Cike was a young girl who was in the sensitive period of love. She was the Young Mistress of the Xuanyin family. She was a genius Immortal cultivator who had reached the Void Refinement stage at the age of 28. She had her own views and understanding of fate and coincidences.

The word ‘Jun’ might not be enough to prove it, but what about the same ability?

Ye Cike looked at the City Lord. The woman’s movements were calm and composed, and it did not seem like she was testing him or showing off.

The Young Mistress of the mysterious dark sect revealed a faint smile and said, “City Lord, you’ve also encountered this kind of special magical power? I really didn’t expect this. I wonder where you are and who you saw this situation from. I asked the elders in my family to search for his traces for a year, but they didn’t find any clues. It was only recently that I was able to use spells to lock onto him again. I was still worried that he would disappear again. Perhaps you can provide some clues?”

It was a coincidence that they were both in the same situation, and it was also a coincidence that Duan Lanruo had calculated that the person was also in the City of Ten Thousand Swords. Was it also a coincidence that he came and went without a trace?

This was definitely not a coincidence!

Duan Lanruo was certain that the person Ye Cike was looking for was Liu Junxuan!

The Xuanyin family did not have much contact with the outside world for many years. Their businesses were all managed by girls like Xiu’er, who had been recruited and raised since childhood. Ever since the incident at the Sword Pavilion, the younger generation of the family had never had the chance to see any men with impure intentions.

Unless this person could ignore the defense of the Xuanyin family.

And it just so happened that a certain person with the word ‘Jun’ in his name had this ability to appear and disappear like a ghost.

Otherwise, how could Duan Lanruo, the wife of the Sword Pavilion’s former Pavilion Master, easily meet a strange man in this heavily guarded City of Ten Thousand Swords, and then some unclear things happen?

Moreover, whenever Duan Lanruo tried to investigate this man, she would always end up with nothing. It was as if this person had never left any traces in the world.

But more importantly, in this world, those who dared to attack the Xuanyin family had to have the courage to face several old ancestors at the Calamity stage. There were only a few people like this in Shangyang, and they were all old monsters who had long been famous.

Someone who had dared to provoke her, the wife of the former Sword Pavilion Master, was already extremely bold. Normally, he would not be able to stop her, so it seemed reasonable for him to provoke a Young Mistress of the Xuanyin family.

The enemy is in the light while I’m in the dark, and I have a great advantage. If she’s looking for someone to catch him, then I, Duan Lanruo, must protect him and let him understand who’s truly good to him.

This day had finally come. Duan Lanruo had deeply understood from a long time ago that she would not be that man’s only one. Therefore, she had always been very humble because she could not hand over some things to him. At the same time, her expectations of him were also much lower.

There would be people who would fall in love with him, but these young girls who were overly paranoid of love would never understand the importance of a peaceful, generous, and gentle land.

Duan Lanruo’s expression did not change, but she felt that the overall situation had already been decided. She took a sip of tea and said, “I’ve seen it on an old senior. He’s already passed away, so it’s not convenient for me to mention his name. I’m sorry, I can’t provide you with any clues, but I can give you the temporary use of the Ten Thousand Sword Array once — under our supervision.”

When you force him into a desperate situation, it’ll be my turn to appear…

Ye Cike was still a little hesitant, but since Duan Lanruo had already agreed, there was no point in asking further. In any case, as long as she could trap him, the people she had brought this time would definitely be able to tie him up and bring him back to Xuanyin.

Regardless of whether Duan Lanruo was related to Junxuan or not, she was going to take over her territory and snatch him away.

“If that’s the case, the next time I come to visit will be the day the Ten Thousand Sword Array formation opens. As for the transfer of ownership of the spirit vein, you can speak to Xiu’er.”

“Happy cooperation.” Ye Cike looked up at Duan Lanruo.

“Happy cooperation.”

In the room, the City Lord of Ten Thousand Swords and the Young Mistress of the Xuanyin family exchanged a glance and smiled. They were both very satisfied with the result.
