Lu Li knew that Jiang Ningxue was deeply in love with him.
Given Jiang Ningxue's status, family background, looks and talents, she was the best choice for him.
However, compared to the best sword in the world, Jiang Ningxue was not so important.
In his mind, how could a beautiful woman be more important than his future in martial arts?
Jiang Ningxue saw that he was silent, as if he was considering something. She immediately became anxious, and the anger on her face became even more apparent.
"Lu Li, what are you thinking? Do you … do you want me to agree to his rude terms? "
Jiang Ningxue thought that Lu Li would be as angry as she was and refuse the terms.
However, Lu Li's reaction was as if he was weighing the pros and cons, considering whether to say yes or not.
This made Jiang Ningxue feel even more indignant and disappointed. Her clear eyes were gradually covered with a layer of mist.
Lu Li came back to his senses. He glanced at her and thought to himself, "The Burial Of Heaven is the best sword in the world. Ji Tianxing is neither a fool nor a lecher. How can he give away the Burial Of Heaven so easily? Is he plotting something? Or does he not understand the value and significance of the Burial Of Heaven? "
Lu Li looked at Jiang Ningxue and comforted her, "Xue-er, don't worry. There are still many suspicious points.
The black sword that Ji Tianxing took out, he said it was the Sword of the Burial Of Heaven. Tell me, what is that sword like? "
Jiang Ningxue paused for a moment and thought of a possibility. She answered honestly, "That sword is one meter long and two inches wide. It is pitch black and cold. There is a lifelike black dragon carved on the hilt.
I have examined the sword carefully. It has a soul and strong fluctuation of divine energy. It is not an ordinary sword. "
After Lu Li heard this, he frowned. "That sword is intact? There is a black dragon carved on the hilt? "
"Yes." Jiang Ningxue nodded.
Lu Li's expression changed. A cold glare flashed across his eyes. "Xue-er, you have been fooled by Ji Tianxing. That is not the Sword of Burial Of Heaven!
The real Sword of Burial Of Heaven had been severely damaged when Kenshin fell, and was now incomplete.
With Ji Tianxing's strength, it was impossible for him to completely repair the Sword of Burial Of Heaven!
Furthermore, the hilt of the Burial Of Heaven doesn't have a black dragon engraved on it! "
Jiang Ningxue was trembling with anger. Her face turned pale as she felt even more ashamed and furious.
"Damned lecher, you despicable bastard! He actually used a fake sword to impersonate the Sword of the Burial Of Heaven and tried to cheat me of my innocence? "
Lu Li waved his hand and comforted her, "Xue-er, don't be so angry. It hasn't happened yet."
Jiang Ningxue finally suppressed her hatred and anger. She frowned and asked, "If that is not the Sword of the Burial Of Heaven, why would Ji Tianxing use a fake sword to trick me?"
Coldness surged in Lu Li's eyes as he said coldly, "Clearly, Ji Tianxing has become suspicious. He deliberately used a fake sword to impersonate the Sword of the Burial Of Heaven to test your reaction.
Judging from all the signs, that guy is not simple. He must know the value and significance of the Sword of the Burial Of Heaven. He has become suspicious of our motives. "
Jiang Ningxue appeared to be worried. She asked, "Then what should we do? Should I continue to get close to him? "
Lu Li thought about it and said calmly, "Of course, you have to stay in the Hall of Tranquility and continue to live next door to him. But you don't have to take the initiative to get close to him. Just let nature take its course.
Even though he has become suspicious and we cannot get the Sword of the Burial Of Heaven for now, I still have a follow-up plan.
I will take this opportunity to drive a wedge between him and the Empire of Chu Yun. I will try my best to rope him into the Empire of Thousand Snow.
If my plan works and he can leave the Mount of Gods, then his life will no longer be in his hands. The Sword of the Burial Of Heaven will be mine. "
Hearing this, Jiang Ningxue understood what he meant.
Lu Li could not take the Sword of the Burial Of Heaven by force on the Mount of Gods.
Once Ji Tianxing left the Mount of Gods, Lu Li would not have to hide anymore. He could do whatever he wanted!
Then, the two discussed some more matters and decided on their next plan.
After about seven minutes, Jiang Ningxue said goodbye to Lu Li and left the study.
…
Three days passed before they knew it.
During the three days, Ji Tianxing had been cultivating in the yard of the Hall of Tranquility.
Just as he expected, Jiang Ningxue still lived in the room next to his but she never came to see him again.
Sometimes, when they saw each other, Jiang Ningxue would turn around and leave with a cold face. Anger could be seen between her eyebrows.
Ji Tianxing was not surprised by this outcome at all.
After all, Jiang Ningxue was a beauty with both talent and beauty.
She was not a scheming beauty. Of course, she would not throw herself at Lu Li for a sword.
Geniuses had their dignity and pride.
However, compared to the quietness of the Hall of Tranquility, the palace where the geniuses of the six states lived was bustling with noise and excitement.
It was unknown who spread the news, but it spread among the geniuses of the six nations.
Now, everyone knew that Ji Tianxing had turned to Lu Li, the Crown Prince of the Empire of Thousand Snow. He was living in the Hall of Tranquility.
Lu Li was once a disciple of a god and was highly regarded by the two Guardians and several envoys.
Every few years, Lu Li would go back to the Mount of Gods to pay his respects. He respected his teacher and was very sincere to the Immortal Master.
The geniuses of the various states were talking about how Ji Tianxing could be appreciated and valued by Lu Li. It was like a silver lining at the end of the tunnel.
Even if he could not become a disciple of a god in the future, he could be cultivated by Lu Li and he could do well in the Empire of Thousand Snow.
More than a dozen geniuses of the Chu Yun Empire were angry and contemptuous about Ji Tianxing turning to Lu Li.
As far as they were concerned, Ji Tianxing was the number one genius of the Chu Yun Empire. He had disgraced himself by ruining the worship ceremony.
Now, he had turned to the Crown Prince of the Empire of Thousand Snow. How shameless! He had disgraced the Chu Yun Empire!
If it were not for the fact that it was inconvenient for them to go to the Hall of Tranquility, they would have reprimanded Ji Tianxing in person.
Apart from this, some insiders said that Lu Li had begged the Chief Guardian to give Ji Tianxing another chance.
When the seven days were up, Lu Li would bring Ji Tianxing with him when he went to the temple to pay his respects.
As long as Ji Tianxing bowed to the temple devoutly and repented sincerely, the anger of the Chief Guardian could be appeased.
By that time, Lu Li could put in a good word for Ji Tianxing to the Chief Guardian. Maybe he could be exempted from punishment.
When the geniuses of various states learned about this, they were all criticizing secretly. They were waiting for Lu Li to go to the temple to pay his respects so that they could see Lu Li and Ji Tianxing with their own eyes.
Soon, the seven days were up.
Today was the day Lu Li would go to the temple to pay his respects.
Early in the morning, the maids and guards in the Hall of Tranquility were busy. There was a hubbub of voices.
