Chapter 6, The Muni Divine Mirror

Su Hua did not take it to heart, but simply asked Ya'er: "Do you like your current life?"

He agreed, "I will add a seat for you among the protectors, but the higher the position, the greater the responsibility. Are you capable of handling it?"

After exiting the customs, Lan Zhan seemed to intend to set her aside. He planned to kill the Left Alliance Leader of the Imperial Platform and only intended to send Po Jun and Tan Lang to carry out the task

She only now understands why she is different from ordinary people. While others cannot see through the enchanting illusions, she can perceive them clearly. What others cannot refine, she can effortlessly absorb. Everything relies on this divine jade. Upon reflection, it feels so tragic; the divine jade can discern the heavens, spirits, and gods, yet it is utterly helpless when it comes to the human heart. Those sects in the martial world are striving to seize it, while her father, accompanied by his pregnant wife, fearing he cannot protect them, has always concealed the whereabouts of the divine jade. If he had been alone at that time, would those rabble still have been his opponents?

Lan Zhan squinted his eyes and said, "Are you not afraid that I will ask you to serve me?"

In today's martial arts world, the leaders are divided into left and right, with the left leader being somewhat weaker, yet still the second most prominent figure on the divine weapon list. The two guardians, feeling the pressure, reluctantly accepted the order, their faces showing some difficulty. After a long silence, Ya'er suddenly spoke: "Guan Shan Yue is not an ordinary person; if we fail, the Bo Yue Pavilion will be in grave danger. I request permission to accompany the two guardians, or I can go alone if that is preferable."

A very small number of the Bai Di people can refine the Zang Lingzi after death, which is further divided into Liu Ye and Qi Ye, with Qi Ye being the superior and Liu Ye being the next best. What exactly it is can be roughly understood as something akin to the soul. Typically, after an ordinary person dies, their soul disperses, but the Bai Di people condense it. As long as you have the ability to forge it, it can transform into a soul-guiding banner, or even into a sentient and the purest of weapons

The Muni Divine Mirror, everything arises from it. She is very curious about what that object is like. It is said that after her parents passed away, this artifact disappeared, but judging by Lan Zhan's actions today, this divine mirror is more or less related to her

The battle between Bai Di and the Library was earth-shattering. Upon returning to Wang She Zhou, Lan Zhan greatly praised her abilities. She still appeared calm and unperturbed, as if all her experiences in that vast wilderness had vanished like a sudden rainstorm into the sea, leaving no trace behind.

Staying in the Wave Moon Pavilion, there is always a third eye watching whatever one does. Fortunately, over the years, she has become familiar with the surrounding terrain. There is a little-known cave in the Abyss of Rushing Water, where one can swim against the heavy water curtain and ascend. The cave is above the water surface and has only an underwater entrance. There, one can refine and store spiritual essence, secure from prying eyes.

Su Hua smiled slowly after listening, "But it seems that I have nothing more to teach you now."

The two guardians exchanged glances in secret, as the master of the pavilion's heart for cherishing beauty was once again stirred. However, only Ya'er knew the reason behind this; after this incident, Lan Zhan was determined to take action against her.

Yar stared blankly, as if an old wound had been suddenly torn open, and the heart that had nowhere to rest finally found a place to settle.

Over the years, she has been quietly improving herself, and Su Hua has noticed it all. Her accomplishments in martial arts are secondary; what is most gratifying is that she has suddenly become enlightened, no longer speaking harshly when facing men. When necessary, she can also skillfully navigate situations with a deep understanding, charmingly and without any hint of vulgarity.

Pursuing for a thousand miles, with over a hundred heroes, she meticulously gathered the experiences of her parents, and with each additional understanding came a deeper, bone-crushing pain. On the seventh night, she forged a pair of sword spirits in her rage; when the transformed young man and woman bowed before her, she felt that the time was drawing near. She awaited an infallible opportunity to eliminate all those from the Wave Moon Pavilion who had participated in the initial pursuit, to restore justice for her parents.

Perhaps at the moment of desperation, Lan Zhan might chop her into pieces to prove his conjecture.

The upcoming task is indeed much more challenging than the previous ones. She was ordered to assassinate General Baidi, a member of a tribe that evolved from beasts, known for their habit of moving in large groups and their astonishing combat capabilities. She had been lurking in the army for seven days and finally waited for General Baidi to leave the camp, accompanied by a smaller team of about seventeen or eighteen people. Once they had traveled five miles from the camp, they arrived at a plain surrounded by mountains on three sides, with excellent weather and terrain, marking the moment for her to unleash her killing spree.

The eagle that Lan Zhan used to monitor her was quite impatient; as soon as the battle ended, it hurried back to report, missing such crucial intelligence in vain. She was quite satisfied as she collected the Cang Lingzi into her palm and was about to leave when suddenly a strange vibration enveloped her body, and her eyes began to burn, growing hotter and hotter... until it felt like molten lava.

The so-called Yunzhiche is certainly not a vehicle made of Yunzhi. Yunzhi is a concept, a swirling mist of smoke and clouds, where one sits in the fog; it is a fine thing only suitable for those who are half human and half immortal in the Cangling Ruins.

Later, she found Lan Zhan and candidly told him: "I do not wish to stay at the Weak Water Gate any longer; that place is not suitable for me"

Ya'er did not disappoint Lan Zhan; she rapidly grew according to the goals he set for her many years ago. Sometimes, the power that erupted inexplicably even startled herself

Because of her confidence, she becomes arrogant. She never wants to trouble others, nor does she wish to be troubled by them. In life-and-death situations, she resigns herself to fate, and if she cannot find a good partner, she would rather fight alone than expend energy to ensure another person's safety.

Speaking of her father, it was as if a spring had been pressed down, and naturally, Lan Zhan could not muster any interest. However, since she intended to stay at the main gate, it was not out of the question. The whereabouts of the Muni Divine Jade had been unknown for twenty years, and no one's enthusiasm could withstand such a long period of time. It seemed to be just the right moment; the people in the martial world had mostly forgotten about it. He had trained his troops for a thousand days, yet he could not wait indefinitely. But to shatter such a rare beauty would be a waste. As a man, there would always be some different thoughts; the more she feigned rejection while inviting him, the more it would ignite his passion.

The silk satin woven by the spring rain is called "Bingwan". The Bingwan fan can dispel the summer heat, a skill that Yuer learned by chance from an outsider. Su Hua's fan frame is luxurious, and the fan they created together is truly exceptional

She reached out and touched her dagger; for the time being, she could only gamble, betting that Lan Zhan did not have complete confidence and dared not take the risk of killing her. Because if she died, the only person in this world who could reveal the whereabouts of the divine jade would be gone. Without finding the Muni divine jade, let alone the solitary mountain of the merfolk palace, she wouldn't even be able to pass through Longxian Isle.

She said she could, "The subordinate is willing to dedicate everything for the esteemed lord."

This remark immediately provoked the displeasure of the two guardians, who furrowed their brows and scolded: "Yue Yier, do not be so arrogant!"

The general of the Bai Di is quite difficult to deal with, and my subordinate has been severely injured, I am afraid he will need to enter seclusion to recuperate for a while. " She managed a difficult smile, her eyes reflecting a weak undertone, "May I request the lord to allow me a few days to rest?"

She fell silent, as the faint light of dawn broke in the east, and the blue of the crab shell gradually faded away. She exhaled softly, "It is dawn."

Both seem to possess great patience, enduring one storm after another, and it has been four years of waiting again

The two guardians scoffed at her act of playing the fool, yet Lan Zhan chuckled, his tone laced with a hint of indulgence: "You have just emerged from seclusion, and I wonder how well your body has recovered. This time, you will be going with Tan Lang and Po Jun... It is good to have an extra person for added assurance. However, this will be the last time I send you into battle; after all, you are still a girl, and seeing you covered in injuries over the years, I cannot bear it in my heart.

She said: "I wish to enter the Gate of Life and Death. If the Lord permits, I am willing to accompany the Lord and serve the Lord with all my efforts."

The Lady Fish of Cangling Ruins wishes to acquire a carriage and has sent someone to convey her message, offering to exchange it for a Yunzhiche. I have not yet agreed. She smiled as she spoke, lowering her head to continue threading the broken silk, the verdant ribbons accentuating her slender neck, making her appear as pure and clean as an orchid. While speaking, she turned her head to ask her, "Master mentioned last time that he wanted to exchange for a carriage, how about a Yunzhiche?"

She covered her eyes, falling to the ground in panic, only to feel something suddenly struggle within her eye sockets and shoot out. When she focused her gaze, she saw two round jade discs resembling the yin-yang symbol, one a deep blue and the other a purple gold. Initially, they whirled around joyfully, and after they had played enough, they returned to her side, lingering and circling around her.

A woman, possessing exceptional skills, a tenacious spirit, and a melodious voice, has seamlessly integrated these qualities, rendering her beyond reproach. Even Lan Zhan's gaze towards her has increasingly become infatuated. Each frown and smile can be enchanting, yet she remains untainted by the world, forever embodying the innocent brilliance of spring sunshine. On rainy days, sitting beneath the black sweetgum tree, she accompanies me in making fans, her pure white wrists swaying in the wind, weaving the rain into threads. Who could have imagined that such hands have long been saturated with human blood

A dreamy smile appeared on her face, "The master holds a place in my heart like that of a father."

She blinked her eyes and murmured with a sense of grievance, "I just wanted to help."

In this world, there are always masters who are not so unkind; although Lan Zhan is suspicious, he ultimately refrains from saying much. Understanding the situation, he gives a few instructions and allows her to take her leave

The blade traverses the wilderness, still clad in the armor worn during ambush. The White Di people are tall and robust, their blood abundant; when a single strike descends, it is as if a water pouch has been slashed open, splattering all over in an instant, leaving one drenched and covered.

There are no longer any teachers in Boyue Pavilion who can teach her martial arts. She has fought against the four great guardians beside Lan Zhan, achieving a draw in one-on-one battles. Although she is still unable to defeat the four of them when they work together, it is not a difficult task to accomplish given some time.

The Seven Nights Ghost Lantern, as the name suggests, requires seven nights of contemplation. Success and failure both hinge on these seven nights. For the average person, the process of refining it is exceedingly difficult; however, due to the assistance of the divine jade, Ya'er clearly achieves results with half the effort.

If it were an ordinary person, upon learning the cause of their parents' death, they would undoubtedly launch an investigation. However, Ya'er did not. She merely stood quietly in the shadows, waiting. Six years of living among wolves had taught her the patience required for hunting. Lan Zhan must have begun to suspect her; he was always cautious in his dealings. Since he was not worried that she would draw her sword against him, it was certain that he had prepared a way to deal with her.

Lan Zhan seemed to have anticipated this day and calmly asked her, "What do you think?"

At last, the last troublesome general has fallen. She stands among the countless corpses, blood trickling down the armor plates. A majestic eagle soars overhead, flapping its strong wings, soaring into the sky, its sharp cry echoing in the moment the sun sets. She surveys her surroundings with her sword drawn, as everything gradually fades into darkness. The corpse of General Bai Di lies on its back, facing the sky. She bends down, her hand hovering over his face. With a slight exertion, the hidden spirit within him is shaken out, a beam of light about three inches high floats in the air, swaying slightly before bursting into brilliance, revealing the Seven Night Ghost Lantern.

The smile on Ya'er’s face was even more radiant, and her eyes were calm as if the winds and smoke had settled. She said: "I like it. Once I complete the things I want to do, I will love this world even more. In fact, many people's fates in the Wave Moon Pavilion are fraught with misfortune; the greater the suffering endured, the more one should enjoy the splendor of the world. I am a person of great commonality; I love all the riches and honors, and I am fond of everything that brings joy. One should not live in self-imposed suffering; wasn't that what my master taught me in the beginning?" I am a person of great commonality; I love all the riches and honors, and I am fond of everything that brings joy. One should not live in self-imposed suffering; wasn't that what my master taught me in the beginning?

She pressed her lips tightly together, gazing through tear-filled eyes at the flickering light in the dark night, which represented her parents whom she had never met, bidding her a gentle farewell. She had not anticipated that Cang Lingzi could actually compel the divine jade to emerge. From this day forward, her father's wishes would be inherited by her, and his belongings would also be taken over by her

Regarding battle, she has never retreated. She does not require assistance from anyone. According to the evaluation of the Four Great Guardians, she is described as valiant, bloodthirsty, and arrogant
