Qin Shi Huang: Swordsmanship begins with picking up Xiao Meng

Chapter 112 The Flame Spirit Princess Who Played with Fire and Got Burned
Zilanxuan!
The Left Sima's Residence!

The streets are quiet and deserted late at night!
Things are happening everywhere.

So Xinzheng was destined to have another turbulent night, but this had nothing to do with Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu returned to the manor with Nongyu and Madam Hu. Because they returned later than usual tonight, the manor was quiet.

In addition, she had angered Dongjun in the afternoon, so Dongjun was unlikely to come to greet Jiang Yu.

There was a faint, intense aura emanating from her, and it was obvious who it was. However, since she wasn't coming out, Jiang Yu didn't have time to pay attention to her.

He then turned to Nongyu and Madam Hu and said:

"Come with me."

"Yes!"

The two followed closely behind Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu quickly settled the mother and daughter, explained the taboos of the mansion to them, and then turned to leave, giving the mother and daughter some space to be alone.

Earlier at Zilan Pavilion, the mother and daughter came out so quickly so as not to keep Jiang Yu waiting.

Just as Jiang Yu was on her way back to her room!
Yan Lingji finally stepped out from the shadows, smiling brightly as she said:
"No wonder Master came back so late today. It turns out it was because of these two beauties. Congratulations, Master."

In response, Jiang Yu simply replied with a quiet remark:
"It's so late at night, aren't you going home to rest? Are you really planning to warm my bed?"

"Sigh, I was just thinking of telling you, Master, that there might be a way to cure your sister."

Yan Lingji lowered her head and sighed, then pitifully turned and left.

"Since Master doesn't want it, then I'll go back to rest."

"Buzz!"

Jiang Yu moved in a flash, directly blocking Yan Lingji's path, startling her greatly.

"Hmph, you bad master!"

Yan Lingji patted her chest gently, calming her frightened heart.

"Let's get down to business!"

Jiang Yu got straight to the point.

"Whee!"

Seeing that Jiang Yu had indeed taken the bait, Yan Lingji's smile widened. Of course, seeing Jiang Yu's eagerness, Yan Lingji didn't waste any time and directly stated her plan:
"Master, don't you know what your sister went through in the past? We have a Fire Charm Technique here. We can use illusions to induce her past experiences and then treat her accordingly. Wouldn't that be much better than trying to find out indirectly like this?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yu stroked her chin and fell into deep thought.

Judging from the way illusions are portrayed in the anime, Yan Lingji's suggestion is indeed a good idea.

However, Jiang Yu didn't want to act rashly; she needed to provide psychological counseling to Shao Siming first.

Otherwise, if something goes wrong, not only will all the previous efforts be in vain, but Shao Siming's heart will also be completely sealed off, with no possibility of ever being unsealed again.

Therefore, Jiang Yu ultimately said the following:
"If a suitable opportunity arises, I will let you try it. Otherwise, you are not allowed to act recklessly without my orders."

"I never said I was going to take action."

Upon hearing this, Yan Lingji pouted her red lips and said with dissatisfaction:
"In this matter, the more she trusts someone, the higher the probability of success. So, the person who told the master wanted the master to come by herself."

"I come?"

Jiang Yu pointed to herself, sizing up Yan Lingji. There seemed to be a hint of malice in her beautiful smile.

"You're going to teach me the Fire Charm Technique?"

"If Madam is willing to teach me such a precious fire control technique, why should I be reluctant to give up my mere fire charm technique?"

Yan Lingji extended her slender fingers, and a wisp of flame flickered from between them, dancing before Jiang Yu. "If I accidentally offend anyone during this teaching process, please forgive me, Master."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yu finally understood what Yan Lingji was up to.

When Yan Lingji taught herself the Fire Charm Technique to help Shao Siming, she was sincere and had no other intentions.

If only I could be tricked by the Fire Charm during the teaching process, that would be even better.

Under normal circumstances, given Yan Lingji's strength, she would not have had the opportunity to use her Fire Charm Technique on Jiang Yu.

But now, Yan Lingji has successfully lured Jiang Yu to come to her doorstep by using the healing of Shao Siming as bait. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that she must seize, since her bad master keeps exploiting her.

Of course, now that Yan Lingji is clearly explaining things to Jiang Yu, she is also asking for his opinion. If Jiang Yu is unwilling, Yan Lingji will naturally listen obediently, put away her curiosity, and seriously teach Jiang Yu.

Looking at the mischievous Yan Lingji in front of her, Jiang Yu did not refuse her, because Shao Siming needed treatment, and Yan Lingji's condition was not much better, even more urgent than Shao Siming's.

So Jiang Yu kindly reminded her again:
"Just be careful not to burn yourself."

Subsequently, Jiang Yu lowered her guard and allowed Yan Lingji to do as she pleased.

"Then I will..."

Yan Lingji extended her flickering, flaming index finger toward Jiang Yu, her voice gradually becoming muffled:

"Waiting for my master to set me on fire..."

"Om..."

As Yan Lingji's last words faded, flames suddenly erupted around her.

next moment!
Jiang Yu suddenly felt a sense of weightlessness, as if she were falling into the deep sea. However, Jiang Yu kept her eyes closed and did not resist or struggle. She just quietly fell into the endless depths.

As Jiang Yu fell, Yan Lingji's naked figure hovered around him, just like when he was in the crystal cage.

Yan Lingji swam over and caught the falling Jiang Yu, gently turning Jiang Yu's head to face her.

Yan Lingji gazed at Jiang Yu's handsome face, which had become serene and peaceful after he fell into a deep sleep due to the illusion, and gently stroked it with her slender hands.

Finally, she smiled gently and said:

"As expected, the most handsome master is the one who is quiet."

He's clearly a very handsome person, but unfortunately, he has a heart that's completely black.

Thinking of how she had been exploited by Jiang Yu, Yan Lingji instantly broke free from Jiang Yu's alluring charm.

"Humph!"

Looking at Jiang Yu, who was now powerless to resist, she slightly parted her red lips and chuckled mischievously.

This is my own world now, I can do whatever I want to my master.

Well, she plays with fire, and her bad master makes her blacksmith. But since her bad master is so good at playing with water, why not let him irrigate a thousand acres of orchids first?

Having made up her mind, Yan Lingji leaned down towards Jiang Yu, her red lips getting closer and closer to Jiang Yu's, the two almost kissing.

But suddenly, Yan Lingji froze, because her beautiful eyes met a pair of deep eyes filled with a wicked smile.

Jiang Yu, who should have been asleep, had somehow awakened.

Yan Lingji blinked in disbelief, causing the eyelashes of the two who were too close to each other to flutter.

Before Yan Lingji could react, flames flickered in Jiang Yu's eyes.

Yan Lingji's beautiful eyes widened instantly:
"No!"
