"Legendary, huh..."
Yanqing lowered his head thoughtfully.
"Of course, although their current identities are not honorable, you should know that they were already famous seven hundred years ago. You should already know the true identity of the white-haired swordsman you met, right?"
"Know."
"That's settled then. He's a legendary swordsman who became famous a thousand years ago. You're only a teenager, so it's normal that you can't beat him. The same goes for Dan Heng and Ren."
"Does the teacher mean that if Yanqing grows up a bit older and becomes more capable, he will be able to beat them?"
Without realizing it, Yanqing's way of addressing Wei Yi had changed.
"Forehead..."
Seeing Yan Qing's hopeful gaze, Wei Yi was speechless for a moment, but in the end he still told the truth: "Of course not. Strength is not about who is older. You are only a teenager now, and aren't you one of the top experts in Luofu? It's just that you are not strong enough when facing those old men."
"Old...Old Deng...Teacher's words are...apt."
Hearing Wei Yi address those people, Yan Qing looked like she wanted to laugh but dared not.
"Alright, I know you're in a bad mood, so I won't bother you anymore. No one can help you with this kind of thing; you have to figure it out yourself. But I suggest you just do what you can first. You should understand what I mean."
Wei Yi patted Yan Qing on the shoulder, then walked towards Fei Xiao's location.
"What does the teacher mean?"
Watching Wei Yi's retreating figure, Yan Qing seemed lost in thought...
Even though Wei Yi didn't say anything particularly insightful, Yan Qing's mood inexplicably improved.
After all, he had just been discouraged and was having a hard time accepting it for a while, but after Wei Yi's explanation, Yan Qing felt somewhat relieved.
Losing to them isn't shameful. What I need to do is hone my martial arts skills so that next time we meet...
Yanqing originally wanted to make a bold statement, saying that he would definitely defeat them, but after thinking about it, he realized that it seemed a bit arrogant.
As I said before, my intention to capture the criminals was good, but it was indeed a bit unwise to try to catch them all by myself.
"Then let's take another sword strike from her!"
Yanqing took a deep breath; that sword strike was still etched in her mind.
What I need to do is to comprehend it, and then apply this sword technique in battle. If we meet again, I will return the favor with a sword strike.
"What? Simply treating and saving lives is no longer enough for you. Are you now turning to becoming a psychologist?"
When Wei Yi walked over, Fei Xiao had already ordered a full meal, and she looked at Wei Yi with a smile.
"It's just that his fatherly instincts suddenly kicked in. But even without me, he would probably be able to get through this on his own. I just accelerated the process a little."
"Of course, he is a famous prodigy on the Immortal Ship. If we're talking about martial arts, even General Shence might not be able to beat him. Of course, I'm not talking about a life-or-death battle."
Feixiao felt something was amiss as he spoke, so he added a sentence.
"We're colleagues, is it really appropriate to tease someone like that?"
Wei Yi couldn't help but complain.
"That's true. Let me put it another way: in terms of martial arts alone, you might not even be able to beat him!"
After thinking for a moment, Fei Xiao realized that something was wrong with the cricket colleague behind him, so he slandered him in front of Wei Yi.
"Who said that? I can fight all the time! He's just a kid, how could I possibly lose to him?"
Wei Yi said somewhat unconvinced.
"Don't disbelieve me. As a member of the Cloud Cavalry, Yanqing's skill is quite impressive. Didn't you see? This kid was able to fight Yinyuejun and that Star Core Hunter Blade to a standstill. Although those two held back because he was a junior, the fact that he could make them go all out already says a lot."
Fei Xiao rolled his eyes and couldn't help but sigh.
Luofu is truly a place where talented people emerge in large numbers.
Back then, there were legendary figures like the Five Heroes of the Clouds. Now, Yan Qing's talent is almost demonic; he truly has the bearing of a general.
Compared to Yan Qing, all the geniuses on the Immortal Ship seemed somewhat overshadowed.
"Tell me, if Yun Li and Yan Qing were to fight, who would win?"
Wei Yi looked at Yan Qing and suddenly realized that Yun Li and Yan Qing seemed to be about the same age.
"If it's just a friendly spar, Yun Li will have the advantage, but if it's a fight to the death, Yun Li has no chance of winning."
Upon hearing Wei Yi's question, Fei Xiao pondered for a moment before speaking earnestly.
"Are you so sure?"
"I trust my judgment."
Feixiao nodded, extremely confident.
Before this incident, the two might have been evenly matched, but now Yanqing...
"I also think Yanqing will win."
Wei Yi nodded.
"I thought you were going to say Yun Li would win, and then we'd make a bet!"
Fei Xiao looked at Wei Yi with some dissatisfaction. Now the bet was off!
“I’m not stupid. Why would I gamble on something I can’t win at all? That’s not gambling, that’s suicide.”
Wei Yi rolled his eyes.
"That's true."
Nodding, Fei Xiao realized that this was indeed the case.
"Then, let's bet on something else. Guess what this braised pork ribs taste like to you?"
Fei Xiao placed a plate of braised pork ribs, its color vibrant and glossy, looking incredibly appetizing, in front of Wei Yi, and asked with a smile.
"What does it taste like? I'm the one that's salty and savory."
As Wei Yi spoke, he picked up his chopsticks to taste the flavor.
In an instant, the ribs on the plate were all gone, leaving only a little broth.
"You guessed wrong, it has no taste. As punishment, you have to grant me one request!"
After swallowing the food in his mouth, Fei Xiao looked at Wei Yi with a smug smile.
"I didn't even mention gambling, and besides, is your ability meant for this kind of thing?"
Few people could keep up with Fei Xiao's speed if he really got serious. Wei Yi looked at Fei Xiao and couldn't help but twitch his lips.
"Any ability that can be put to use is a good ability!"
Feixiao stood with his hands on his hips, completely self-righteous.
Seeing this, Wei Yi sighed, wiped the soup residue from the corner of her mouth with his hand, and then casually put it in his mouth and licked the soup clean.
"Hmm, too much soy sauce was added; the soy sauce flavor is a bit too strong."
After a moment's thought, he commented.
"At this time, it's good if any shops are open."
Feixiao rolled his eyes and said.
"That's true."
Wei Yi nodded. Luofu was in a state of chaos, though it couldn't be said that everything was in ruins. Many shops had closed down. But miraculously, there weren't many casualties.
This is different from the previous Yaoqing.
During the Yaoqing incident, many evil creatures were mixed in during the chaos. At that time, the Cloud Cavalry suffered heavy casualties in order to resist the evil creatures. However, there were not many evil creatures lurking in Luofu. Most of them were dealt with in the Youqiu Prison. This resulted in the fact that although Luofu looked severely damaged, the number of casualties was much smaller than the last time.
Of course, Wei Yi and Fei Xiao also contributed to this. With Fei Xiao's involvement, many crises were nipped in the bud, and Wei Yi also dealt with the leader of the Medicine King's Secret Teachings in advance, preventing the other party from causing any trouble.
Although Wei Yi was somewhat concerned about Shuhu, he wasn't in a hurry. The Immortal Boat Alliance was so powerful; they must have a way to deal with it.
I've only been in Luofu for a short time, just one day, but I have this strange feeling that I've already experienced so much...
At this moment, the sun sets in the west and gradually disappears. Like an old painter, it uses the sky as a canvas to scatter brilliant and gentle colors, dyeing the whole world with a faint golden glow.
The clouds on the horizon, like burning orange-red flames, gradually blended into the azure sky.
Fei Xiao and Wei Yi walked hand in hand on the cobblestone path, their pace unhurried, as if they were enjoying this moment of peace.
The disaster of Jianmu had little impact on Changletian. On the streets, vendors gradually began to pack up and head home.
Changletian still maintains its old traditions: people work at sunrise and return home at sunset, without the scenery of a city that never sleeps.
Or rather, it wasn't that lively.
Especially after a day of Jianmu's growth and the star core's mutation, people didn't have much leisure time to go out for a stroll.
"By the way, when are we going back?"
Wei Yi suddenly realized that their purpose in coming here was to escort Hu Lei back. Now that Hu Lei was dead and Chi Yue had been obtained by Fei Xiao, their trip to Luofu could be considered a complete success.
If that's the case, then they seem to have no reason to stay here?
"Hmm... no rush, let's stay a few more days. Jiaoqiu and the others have nothing to do, so they can go back early to handle Yaoqing's official business. As for us, we can stay in Luofu for a few days, just like a vacation. Anyway, Yaoqing will be anchored for a while, and I can't go on an expedition for the time being."
Fei Xiao stroked his chin and said with a smile.
"You're so selfish, aren't you? You send your subordinates back to suffer while you go on your honeymoon, huh?"
It has to be said, it's really unbelievable that Jiaoqiu has such a boss.
Feixiao wasn't exactly a diligent person. She delegated all official duties to her subordinates. In her words, a general only needed to oversee the overall situation; official duties? That was the subordinates' job. "I've already killed all the enemies. If I still have to do official duties, what use are you all?"
Although Jiaoqiu felt something was off, he didn't know how to refute it. He knew that Feixiao was just saying that to be lazy, but he felt that Feixiao made sense.
"What does it matter?"
Fei Xiao looked at Wei Yi with a touch of arrogance: "Aren't you also a beneficiary? Why are you criticizing me?"
She was a little dissatisfied.
"How could I dare to criticize my great wife? I'm overjoyed that you've condescended to come and keep me company."
Wei Yi said with a smile, "Better to die than to die, my friend. Jiaoqiu, you should go back and handle your official business."
"Moreover, although the biggest mastermind behind Luofu has been identified, there are still many internal problems. This place is not like the other side where the troublemakers are just a bunch of old fogies. This place is much more complicated. If we stay here for a few more days, we might be able to help in some way. We're already here."
