My Ironclad System is ahead of schedule.

"It's good to have such a divination technique. If we know in advance what danger we are in, we can deal with it more easily."

He thought in his mind.

Then Ji Yuan began to carefully study the art of divination.

His expression darkened further.

This divination technique comes from an unknown planet and boasts an absolute accuracy rate. However, it has significant limitations. Firstly, it can only show a single scene of the future, without revealing any other causes or consequences. Secondly, this divination can only be performed on others; one cannot use it to predict their own fate.

Finally, and most importantly, this divination technique consumes one's own life force.

Ji Yuan felt that the divination technique wasn't very effective.

However, I still kept it in mind.

Setting aside the matter of divination, Ji Yuan looked at the last two achievements.

[You have sponsored the impoverished Sword Master of Luofu, and are rewarded with the weapon Sky Dome (Part 1)]

[You have received an IOU personally written by the Sword Master of Luofu, and the reward is the weapon Sky Dome (Part 2)]

What?

The two achievements combined became a weapon.

And how exactly do you get this weapon?

It couldn't have just appeared out of thin air, could it?

Ji Yuan thought to himself, then silently recited the command to take out the weapon.

Just as he finished thinking this, a mechanical bird flew into the restaurant. After circling the lobby, the mechanical bird landed next to Ji Yuan.

Is this how it's delivered?

Ji Yuan thought to himself.

I glanced at the receipt and saw that it was indeed my name.

Then he immediately signed his name on it and opened the package.

Ji Yuan was dumbfounded when he saw the longsword in the box.

The box probably didn't contain a longsword, or rather, fragments of a longsword would be more accurate. A hilt with several pieces could barely be pieced together to resemble a short sword.

What's happening here?

You guys can't get along if you separate yourself into superiors and subordinates!

This system is such a rip-off!

Ji Yuan thought to himself, then picked up the sword hilt.

As soon as Ji Yuan picked it up, he immediately sensed that something was wrong.

As he placed his hand on the sword hilt, a faint blue particle light instantly appeared on the hilt, enveloping all the fragments of the longsword.

The hilt was pulled out, and the fragments were linked together by light to form a complete longsword.

"This is?"

Looking at the weapon in Ji Yuan's hand, Yan Qing swallowed hard and said.

"This is the longsword I bought for myself. What do you think?"

Ji Yuan smiled smugly, then said to Yan Qing.

Yanqing examined the longsword carefully and then drew a conclusion about Ji Yuan.

"Brother, your swordsmanship is not worthy of this sword."

Chapter 12 My sister is about to face danger as soon as she arrives!

Upon hearing Yanqing's words, Ji Yuan's expression instantly turned sour.

I know my swordsmanship is a bit lacking, but you shouldn't say that.

"After we finish eating, I'll show you my swordsmanship."

Ji Yuan said to Yan Qing.

"Uh-huh."

Upon hearing Ji Yuan say this, Yan Qing naturally nodded in agreement.

Nothing is more interesting than practicing swordsmanship.

He ate his meal quickly, and after finishing, he pulled Ji Yuan outside.

……

Walking outside, Ji Yuan was constantly studying his own longsword.

The longsword appeared to be fused together using some kind of high technology, and the light emanating from its hilt was somewhat similar to the laser swords Ji Yuan had seen in the game. Ji Yuan sensed the hilt and discovered several mechanisms on it.

Ji Yuan moved slightly, and the longsword also changed.

The longsword softened in an instant, then hardened just as quickly. Then, with a press of the hilt, the fragments suddenly extended several meters. Ji Yuan then pressed another mechanism, and the fragments returned to form the longsword.

Ji Yuan twirled his sword and struck a cool pose.

The two found a secluded spot in Changletian, and Yanqing drew his longsword from his waist and assumed a defensive stance.

"Brother Ji Yuan, attack!"

He said to Ji Yuan.

"it is good."

Ji Yuan nodded, and then his longsword instantly shot out, aiming for Yan Qing's wrist. Yan Qing immediately parried, deflecting the sword tip. Ji Yuan then retrieved the fragments and rushed in front of Yan Qing to launch an attack.

The two exchanged a few quick moves.

Ji Yuan was still quite unskilled when wielding the Longsword Sky for the first time, and he didn't change his stance, fighting Yan Qing in the longsword form. Ji Yuan's swordsmanship was a modified version of Yan Qing's techniques from a century later, almost identical to Yan Qing's current style. In particular, after seeing his modified moves, Yan Qing had cleverly adapted them, making his own swordsmanship even stronger.

After a dozen or so moves, Ji Yuan was clearly at a disadvantage and was on the verge of defeat.

"Fifteen moves have passed, Brother Ji Yuan, your strength is increasing at an even faster pace." Feeling that he could defeat Ji Yuan in the next move, Yan Qing said to him.

"I have one more trick up my sleeve."

Seeing his defeat, Ji Yuan immediately decided to use his last remaining move. He seized the opportunity, instantly appearing in mid-air and slashing down.

As Yan Qing watched Ji Yuan's swordsmanship, he was about to tell him that such moves had too many openings and were easy to hit when he suddenly realized that Ji Yuan had locked onto him with his aura.

In the sky, Ji Yuan swung his longsword, and countless icy frosts enveloped Yan Qing.

"it is good!"

Yanqing shouted happily, then broke free from Ji Yuan's restraints and swung her sword to attack the ice shards flying from the sky.

He drew graceful arcs, sending the ice flying. However, he still missed a mark, leaving a bloody scratch on the back of his hand.

This was the first time he had been injured in a battle with Ji Yuan.

He looked very excited.

Ji Yuan landed on the ground and sheathed his longsword. He had used up all his strength with that single strike; he was no longer capable of fighting back.

Seeing Ji Yuan land, Yan Qing ignored the wound on her arm and approached Ji Yuan, saying:

"Brother Ji Yuan, that move of yours is truly amazing!"

Yanqing felt that he could also perform this sword move. Other secret techniques could not be mastered just by looking at them, but after performing this sword technique, he understood the source of all its power, and after a little deduction, he could perform it.

Yanqing thought about it and felt that Ji Yuan might not have learned any swordsmanship before. He had just imitated and modified his own swordsmanship.

Yanqing truly didn't know how to describe such talent.

"Hmph, then you still say my swordsmanship is unworthy of this sword?"

As Ji Yuan said this, she still blushed a little.

His swordsmanship relies entirely on the system and has little to do with his own efforts.

"Um... still a little." Yanqing scratched his head and said to Ji Yuan.

Ji Yuan forcibly suppressed the urge to beat Yan Qing.

Of course, the main reason is that they can't beat them.

"Let's go, I'm going back to sleep. What if I encounter danger if I go back now that it's really night?"

"Ah."

Yanqing nodded.

After taking a few steps, he said to Ji Yuan somewhat embarrassedly, "Um, Brother Ji Yuan, I learned the swordsmanship you just displayed after just one glance. This swordsmanship is really strong, and I just secretly learned it. Don't worry, I definitely won't use it on anyone."

"No, this is not stealing knowledge at all. Yanqing, if you want to use it, then use it to your heart's content."

When Ji Yuan heard Yan Qing ask him so earnestly, he was so frightened that he ran away.

Ji Yuan would have accepted it if it were someone else's technique. But this was Yan Qing's own swordsmanship, and Ji Yuan wouldn't stoop to such shamelessness.

Watching Ji Yuan escape, Yan Qing couldn't help but sigh.

He truly lives up to his reputation as my elder brother; he's incredibly generous.

……

The next day, Ji Yuan went to work at the Tianbo Company again.

Upon arriving at the Tianbo Bureau, Ji Yuan found it even busier than the day before.

However, this time it wasn't the maritime trade officer who was busy, but other staff members.

What happened here?

Ji Yuan arrived at his workstation and asked the maritime trade officer sitting next to him, "What's going on today? Why is everyone else so busy?"

"It's said they're investigating the Orion Merchant Guild. Apparently, they're colluding with the Buli people. The Tianbo Bureau is investigating their business dealings to see if there's anything fishy going on," the Maritime Trade Officer sitting next to Ji Yuan said to him.

After finishing speaking, he lowered his voice and said, "It is said that after the investigation is completed, the Luofu Immortal Ship's Cloud Cavalry plans to launch a devastating attack on the Orion Merchant Guild. Some time ago, it was said that a group of Cloud Cavalry from other immortal ships came over, and they were planning to use this merchant guild to train these newcomers."
