Chapter 153 Dual Blades, Icy Brilliance in the Martial World (22)
Weng Quan exclaimed, “Such a miraculous flower! It is truly a blessing for many.”
Why is Female Hero Bai searching for this Lifeless Flower1?
Bai Tang said, “The Lifeless Flower grows in the Narrow Heaven, the deepest of cliffs, accurately described as boundlessly deep. I observe that Young Master Qi’s Lightness Skill and martial arts are not exceptional, and the cliffs of the Narrow Heaven are exceptionally smooth. Isn’t Young Master Qi afraid of falling into this abyss of thousands of feet and shattering to pieces?”
Even if he shattered to pieces, Qi Jiayan wouldn’t die, and Bai Tang wasn’t worried about him.
Qi Jiayan said seriously, “Young Lady Bai, everyone has their pursuits in life. What I seek is to leave behind a legacy, to save more people tortured by illness. I know this journey is extremely dangerous. If successful, it will bring good news to those crippled by accidents, which is such a beautiful thing. If it fails, there is nothing to regret. Young Lady Bai, Young Hero Weng, I may not have high martial arts skills, but I came prepared.”
As he spoke, Qi Jiayan took out a mechanism-like iron claw.
“This is a commonly used mechanism-type hidden weapon, often used for climbing rocks. As long as you open the mechanism, find the right direction, the iron claw will extend and drill into hard rocks, providing a support point.”
Qi Jiayan then took out a sharp dagger, opened it, and the dagger gleamed white as snow.
“Then I use this incredibly sharp dagger to carve a hole in the cliff for me to step on. Although it takes time and effort, at least there is a chance.”
After finishing, Qi Jiayan asked again, “Young Lady Bai, why are you looking for the Lifeless Flower?”
Tantai Ziheng listened attentively. He only now learned that Bai Tang went to the Narrow Heaven for the Lifeless Flower.
Bai Tang pretended to be mysterious, “Because…”
“Because it’s beautiful! As a woman, I naturally love beautiful things the most. Moreover, it’s rare. They say rarity makes things precious, and something so rare and beautiful must be obtained, serving as a symbol of my identity.”
Bai Tang’s eyes were full of confidence. As if it really seemed to be the truth.
Weng Quan instinctively felt that it was not the case. Bai Tang definitely did not want it just because the flower was beautiful.
Tantai Ziheng snorted coldly, intentionally making the carriage move to an uneven place.
It was simply outrageous, showing no regard for Yaoyao’s body.
She mustn’t bring Yaoyao along if she wanted to court death! He had to make this woman give up such thoughts.
The carriage ventured onto uneven roads, and the people inside were unprepared, nearly falling as it jolted.
Bai Tang remained as steady as a mountain and quickly helped the two who were on the verge of stumbling.
Weng Quan apologized, “Young Villa Master Tantai, you’ve been driving the carriage for a while. Let me take over.”
Tantai Ziheng returned to the smooth road, refusing, “Thanks for your kindness, Young Hero Weng, but I don’t want to see this person inside with the face of my beloved.”
Bai Tang, “…”
Qi Jiayan timely revealed a perplexed expression, but tactfully refrained from asking more.
Interesting. It seemed that she was not the original Bai Tang.
Only then did he say, “Just now, please forgive me, Young Lady Bai. It wasn’t my intention.”
How could Bai Tang quarrel with Qi Jiayan? She said, “Why apologize, Young Master Qi? Who could have anticipated that the carriage would happen to travel on an uneven road? Besides, I was holding the scabbard, and Young Master Qi didn’t take advantage of me. Even if we had collided, it wouldn’t matter. We, men and women of the martial world, shouldn’t fuss over trivial matters.”
Tantai Ziheng couldn’t resist a jab, “Men and women of the martial world may not fuss over trivial matters, but lonely ghosts and wandering spirits might.”
Qi Jiayan quickly changed the topic, “Young Lady Bai, if you’re only seeking the Lifeless Flower for its beauty and rarity, I suggest you reconsider. It’s too dangerous. The prosperity of Wind Guardian Hall now relies on you. You can’t afford any mishap.”
Weng Quan also added, “That place, Female Hero Bai, be cautious.”
