My enemies became my companions

Chapter 105 Why is it so easy?

The sword body is thin and narrow, with a sharp edge but a dark color. It shines coldly but sternly, the blood groove is smooth and the arc is slightly concave. It looks like an eight-sided Han sword but not a Han sword. There is an eight-character sword inscription on the sword body: "If the heart is sad, it will be healthy afterwards."

After Zhou Yitang read it again, he sheathed his sword.

"Is this... the sword you prepared for him?"

Yin Tingxue asked curiously.

Even she could see that this sword was of extraordinary origin. Not to mention that the blade was as sharp as rice paper, just looking at the sword body gave one a feeling of seeing its shadow but not its light. She wondered how much money Zhou Yitong had spent on this sword.

"Ah."

Zhou Yitang responded and said:

"You need to go back."

"Go back to him, right?

I actually prefer to be with you.”

Yin Tingxue said softly.

When they were talking on the lake before, she was still nervous and afraid, but after a few days of contact, she found that Jianjia was not a difficult person to talk to. She didn't need to be afraid when getting along with Zhou Yitong, and she gradually relaxed.

When Yin Tingxue was with Chen Yi, she would always feel nervous from time to time.

"If it weren't for him, you would have nothing to do with me."

Zhou Yitang said in a rare gentle voice,
"Even though you are not the Saint of the Demon Cult this time, but... I still have a prejudice against you."

The prejudice in people's hearts is a mountain.

"He also said before that I was originally a saint of the Demon Sect, and that I would definitely be cruel in the future and do things that would kill people and entire families."

Yin Tingxue also rarely talked about her relationship with Chen Yi.

"I told him that people will change if they keep company with the good. If I hadn't joined the Demon Sect, I would have been a good person if I stayed with him."

Zhou Yitang seemed to be thinking about something.

Then she asked softly:
"Why would he say that to you?"

She wanted to know the whole story and confirm some things.

"He... wants to consummate the marriage with me..."

Yin Tingxue said honestly.

Zhou Yitang sneered.

He really hasn't changed.

After walking for a while with Yin Tingxue, Zhou Yitong brought her to the edge of an underground river and told her that she would wait for Chen Yi here as this was a route he had to take.

"After leaving the underground palace, you decide whether you want to go to Yinjian Mountain with him or stay in the capital."

Zhou Yitang said slowly.

Yin Tingxue didn't know what to do. She neither nodded nor shook her head. She didn't want to leave the capital, but she had to follow Chen Yi.

Seeing this, the one-armed woman softened her heart and confided:
"Don't worry, he probably won't be that vicious by then."

Yin Tingxue was delighted when she heard this, but then she changed her mind and thought that Chen Yi's personality had changed drastically after he killed the three corpses. Isn't this too cruel? She felt some natural pity for him, and her joy was washed away, and her thoughts were entangled.

In the distance, Yu Zhen Yuan Jun, dressed in golden robes, was seen walking towards them hurriedly.

Zhou Yitang turned around and was about to raise his hand to salute when he heard Yu Zhen Yuanjun said in a panic:

"Master, he went straight to the main tomb chamber!"

In that instant, Yin Tingxue saw Jianjia's posture slightly out of control, and he stood still with a look of surprise in his eyes.

It was as if a plan that had been planned for a long time had been disrupted.

"How could he..."

Zhou Yitang lowered his eyes and sighed after a long while:

"In this case... the only thing left is strategy."

Yin Tingxue blinked.

What on earth is Chen Yi doing?
"…I hope he hit on it by mistake."

Yin Tingxue said in her heart,

Otherwise, she always had a...bad feeling about Zhou Yitang.

Avalokitesvara, please don't let that evil guy succeed.

...........................

Chen Yi walked in front, carrying the unconscious Lin Wanlang on his back, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.

Min Ning followed closely behind him. She walked with her head down, thinking about something.

From time to time, she waved her hands in the air, as if there was an invisible blade in her hands, moving as her mind wished. Halfway through the wave, she would stop immediately if she felt something was wrong, and then wave again.

Chen Yi interrupted his train of thought, glanced at Min Ning, and asked:
"What... have you realized?"

Min Ning paused for a moment and nodded slightly.

"But... the method is wrong. I feel like I can only grasp one-third of it. It may be because I am not using a sword, but a knife."

Chen Yi's eyes lit up and he said softly:
"Tell me your feelings, I can help you."

Min Ning tilted her head in confusion, scratched her ponytail, and nodded:
"Okay, but it may not be accurate and may lead you astray."

"fine."

Chen Yi swallowed his words and didn't say anything.
This is to prepare for what’s next.

During this period of time, Yin Weiying and Lin Wanheng brought him a lot of true energy, a total of seventy years, plus the remaining fifty years of true energy, a total of one hundred and twenty years.

One hundred and twenty years of true energy was not enough to allow him to advance from the fifth rank to the fourth rank. In the martial arts world, the fifth rank and the fourth rank were almost separated by a river. At that time, You Xu from the Bailiu School, who had barely recovered his fourth rank strength, and was not yet complete, was able to suppress him to the point where he could hardly fight back.

Therefore, he needed Min Ning's understanding to be in the top ten of the martial arts list in the future.

Min Ning caught that feeling, organized the words, and described it:
"Then listen carefully. The sword intent on the bronze sword is calm when it comes out, but suddenly becomes fierce when it lands. When facing the enemy, it does not matter what the enemy's moves are, but what matters is the enemy's artistic conception of moves. If you break his artistic conception, you will break his moves. It can be said that the stronger you are, the stronger you will be..."

After Min Ning finished his story, a new technique appeared on the panel in Chen Yi's eyes.

[The Inzai Sword Fragments (Not Yet Learned)]

Without hesitation, Chen Yi injected all of his one hundred and twenty years of true energy into it.

[Min Ning had some understanding of Zhou Yitang's sword, and you learned from him, but due to your lack of understanding, you still couldn't get the hang of it, and a year's hard work went to waste.] [After nearly ten years of precipitation, you realized the problem. Yinjianshan's swordsmanship is a method of practicing both Taoism and martial arts. Taoism and martial arts are indispensable, like yin and yang. You finally began to try to use the sword. Although it was rough, it was on the right track.]

[Forty years have passed in a flash. Although you have learned sword moves, you don't know how to use them. You think that Yinjian Mountain has only accepted female disciples for many years. There is a reason for this. After much investigation, you know that it is because sword skills and mental skills complement each other, and mental skills can only be practiced by women. You only have sword skills, but not mental skills, so the effect is very small. Moreover, it is a fragment, and the result is half the effort. ]

[Seventy years, hard work can make up for lack of talent. You have spent an ordinary person's lifetime practicing, and finally gained something. You have already gained a glimpse of the way. ]

[One hundred and twenty years, after years of persistence, you have also caught a glimpse of the sword's intention. Following the sword's intention, you have finally achieved success. The Yinzai Sword has finally achieved some success.]

【Toraya Sword (Small Achievements)】

Chen Yi closed his eyes slightly, and vaguely sensed the sword intent left by Zhou Yitong.

After a while, he let out a deep breath.

The group crossed the corridor and seemed to squeeze into a wide space. An Hou frowned slightly and took a step forward.
"Yi Er, stop for a moment."

Chen Yi stopped and didn't ask why.

Because he saw, in the distance, on the bank of the underground river surrounding the main tomb chamber, among the interlaced blue and green fluorescent lights, a one-armed woman was standing with her back to the camera, and she was holding the hand of a girl with a bun on her head, as if they had been waiting here for a long time.

Chen Yi took a deep breath and handed Lin Wanheng on his back to Queen An.

Then he strode forward.

"Yi'er!"

Queen An cried out.

Chen Yi stopped for half a step, just smiled and signaled her not to worry.

Arriving at the bank of the dark river, Chen Yi met the gaze of the one-armed woman and saluted with his fists.
"Master Zhou, we meet again."

Glancing at the somewhat embarrassed Yin Tingxue, Chen Yi said softly:
"Thank you, Master Zhou, for protecting my wife."

When the word "wife" came out, Yin Tingxue felt her little hand twitching, and Zhou Yitang squeezed her so hard that it hurt a little.

Yin Tingxue was a little flustered and wanted to kick Chen Yi.

"No need to be polite."

Zhou Yitang said softly:

"Easy to do."

After saying that, she let go of the girl. Yin Tingxue took two steps towards Chen Yi awkwardly, and looked back at Zhou Yitang, only to find that the latter had a calm expression.

Yin Tingxue turned around and was about to call Chen Yi, but she didn't expect him to take a big step forward and hug her in his arms.

"Little fox, did you miss me?"

Being hugged by him in such an inappropriate manner, Yin Tingxue blushed and stammered:

"think…"

"Don't lie."

Chen Yi said this and patted her butt.

In public, Yin Tingxue's face turned red as if blood was about to drip out, but she only dared to hold him with one hand and protect herself with the other hand behind her back.

"I'd rather you say you don't want to than lie."

"No, I don't want to..."

After hearing this, Chen Yi clapped again.

Yin Tingxue was so anxious that she almost cried, her almond eyes showing grievance.

"This is your punishment for not wanting me."

Chen Yi said with a grin.

Yin Tingxue could only nod repeatedly to this unreasonable man.

Because she always felt a chill on her back.

They were fighting each other, why was it me who got hurt...

Fortunately, the sword armor will not do anything to him.

Zhou Yitang watched this intimate scene, dispelled his thoughts, then glanced at Tushan not far away, and asked in surprise:

"Is that Tushan? Is she following you?"

"Yes, for some reason or other, she seems to treat me as her son."

Chen Yi pretended not to know.

Zhou Yitang lowered his eyes and pondered for a while after hearing this. After a while of silence, he slowly said:

"In that case, it seems that she... is willing to return to the seal?"

"Probably so."

Chen Yi said calmly.

Yin Tingxue, who knew everything, looked at Chen Yi and then at Zhou Yitang. She had no idea what the two were up to. She always felt that the two seemed to have some tacit understanding, but also seemed not to have, as if they were testing each other.

"I have five remains in my hand. Together with the ones you have, I should be able to put her back into the seal."

Zhou Yitang suggested,

"Only two people can enter the main tomb chamber, one yin and one yang, one female and one male. You and I can enter it later and seal it."

As she spoke, she turned her eyes and looked into the distance.

If Chen Yi's body had not been beheaded at the Temple of Heaven, and if Chen Yi had not suddenly changed his whereabouts and headed directly for the main tomb chamber, she would not have had to show up in person and resort to such a desperate measure.

Those words were a trap. She and Yu Zhen Yuanjun had already entered the main tomb chamber using a secret method.

Zhou Yitang also wanted to take a few more detours to lure Chen Yi into the main tomb chamber, but this was not in line with her personality and would make it easier for her to be discovered. Instead of doing this, it would be better to just say it directly.

Thinking of this, she lowered her eyes slightly.

Given his personality, he would probably first confirm whether she really had five sets of remains, and then confirm the situation outside the main tomb chamber. Finally, after some thought, he would make a desperate move.

Zhou Yitong had already anticipated this and knew she could wait patiently. Even if it was a bad idea, she had already made all the necessary preparations.

"Well then...we'll go in tomorrow."

Chen Yi smiled.

Zhou Yitang suddenly raised his eyes to look at him.

How did he... fall into the trap so easily?
