Wandering Sword Seller's Life in the Qin Dynasty

Author's Note on Chapter 83's Launch!

It has been about forty days since the book was published.

After my last book flopped, I didn't have the idea of ​​writing for a long time.

It wasn't until I heard the song "Tian Xing Jiu Ge" that I had saved in my playlist (the song has been taken down due to the singer's situation, and can only be seen in my collection), and occasionally came across clips related to Qin's Moon, plus some snippets of the sword-forging competition I watched in my spare time, that this book came about.

Qin's Moon is a world of swords.

So at that time, I wanted to write about a swordsmith.

However, traditional swordsmiths, like those depicted in old Shaw Brothers movies, often spend their entire lives forging a single sword. In a fast-paced storyline, it's clearly impossible to spend several years or even decades forging a sword.

Thus, the system came into being.

The initial version of the system was similar to that in online games, where swords were directly synthesized by decomposing raw materials. However, due to numerous complaints from readers, it was changed to a system where swords were forged within the system space.

So stop saying the protagonist doesn't know how to forge.

He was still forging iron in the system space.

The system space simply provides him with a world distinct from the outside, where time flows almost at a standstill, giving him more time to forge swords. Furthermore, he can enchant swords, imbuing the forged blades with various strange powers.

After all, the world of Qin's Time is not a simple world; it contains gods and immortals. The Nine Songs is even more outrageous, with the methods of the Corpse-Driving Demon controlling corpses and the ability of the Eight Linglong to absorb other people's souls, all of which are like fantasy.

Therefore, ordinary swords are of little use in that world.

It absolutely needs to be enchanted!

In addition, since I haven't written any Qin's Moon fanfiction for a long time—the last time was probably four or five years ago—and since both Qin's Moon and Nine Songs had unfinished endings, I've forgotten a lot of the plot. I'm filling in the gaps as I write, which may result in some plot holes.

If anyone sees this, please point it out to me.

Most importantly, the Qin Dynasty world isn't a historical world; it even contains things like stockings and Kung Pao Chicken.

It's normal for something to seem a little off occasionally, so don't worry about it too much.

I still vividly remember Liu Ji's use of the word "boss" in the sixth installment!

Well, there's a lot I want to say, but in the end I don't know what to say.

In short, it will be available tomorrow at noon.

There will be ten chapters that day, totaling about 20,000 words.

I will continue to update steadily with 6,000 words per day, with occasional extra updates. That's all!

I will try my best to adjust my mindset and write better and better!

I hope everyone will give me a first-order as support when it's released!!

…………

Finally, I'd like to offer a few books by author friends in the group, which I promised to promote.

Douluo Continent: Huo Yuhao Returns from Naruto

Family Rise: Starting with Daily Intelligence

"The Powerful Minister of the Ming Dynasty: My Team is Made of Cats and Dogs"

Chapter 84 Blood-Clad Marquis felt he was being targeted!

In the past, Tianze's combative nature would have made him happy to challenge any provocateur.

But things are different now.

He knew his place.

His abduction of the Korean crown prince and Princess Honglian has made him a target of public criticism.

Entering the city this time is like dancing on a knife's edge; every step is fraught with danger, and he absolutely cannot afford to make a mistake.

As long as we hold these two crucial trump cards, there is still much to be gained in the future.

Thinking of this, a cold glint flashed in Tianze's eyes, and he coldly shouted to Yan Lingji beside him, "Retreat!"

Two figures instantly left the place and sped away into the distance.

When Wei Zhuang chased back to the original spot, he only caught two afterimages flashing past the high wall.

His brows furrowed suddenly.

When he arrived here after receiving the news, he originally intended to follow the clues to try to find Tianze's hiding place. Unexpectedly, the other party dared to be so rampant and took the initiative to show himself. At this moment, he no longer cared about any ambush or trap and chased after him without hesitation.

The Baiyue assassin group's encirclement and suppression? He didn't care at all.

His eyes were fixed on the abducted figure—Princess Honglian.

Han Fei and his sister may have long forgotten that accidental favor, but the help they received years ago in the ruins of the cold palace was a lifeline for the desperate young man. This deep-seated gratitude is also the reason why he decisively bet on Han Fei after leaving Guigu and returning to Han.

Princess Honglian has been kidnapped.

If Han Fei was the most distressed person in Zilan Pavilion, then he was the second most distressed.

Unfortunately, since he had no relation to Princess Honglian, he could only hide his concern.

Ahead, Tianze and Yanlingji moved nimbly and elusively. Wei Zhuang's lightness skill was superb, but he had not yet driven them to their doom.

until--

A tall, imposing figure with white hair reaching his shoulders and two swords hanging at his waist silently blocked the only way.

Tianze's pupils suddenly contracted, and his feet were firmly planted on the ground.

With a flick of her slender fingers, Yan Lingji released the Fire Spirit Hairpin into her palm, and a burst of intense flames suddenly rose, illuminating her icy face.

"Bai Yifei!" Tianze's voice was as cold as ice.

"You've got some nerve, daring to step back into Xinzheng City." Bai Yifei's tone was calm, but with a hint of surprise in his scrutiny.

"I can come whenever I want, why should I care about your opinion!" Tianze retorted sarcastically.

As he spoke, his hand quietly tightened around the "Tears of the Sword" he had just snatched from Jade Tiger. The cold blade exuded a ferocious aura, but whether it could subdue his nemesis was still unknown; they would have to fight to see.

Bai Yifei's appearance signifies the complete breakdown of the tacit confrontation at the Crown Prince's residence. Although it is true that Bai Yifei released Tianze, and Bai Yifei believed he could control Tianze, Tianze still did many things beyond his expectations. Kidnapping Princess Honglian was the most resounding slap in the face to Bai Yifei's desire for control.

As expected, Bai Yifei's sword pointed straight to the core: "Hand over the Crown Prince!"

"Want to save him? Go find him yourself!" Tianze shouted.

The Tear-Stained Sword was unsheathed with a fierce roar. Tianze, who once loved collecting famous swords, was also a formidable swordsman. A terrifying and malevolent aura burst forth as if it were a tangible force, heading straight for Bai Yifei's face.

Bai Yifei raised an eyebrow, and the red and white swords at his waist instantly transformed into two intersecting bolts of lightning to meet the attack.

The two clanged together.

The bloody, icy aura clashed violently with the eerie, malevolent power, and illusory images of dragons and snakes writhing in the air appeared faintly.

Bai Yifei activated his internal energy, and a chilling aura emanated from his body, intending to freeze Tianze along with the surrounding space.

In the blink of an eye, a sudden change occurred.

When Tianze poured all his inner strength into the Tear-Stain Sword, the sword seemed to transform into a greedy vortex, and an indescribable suction force suddenly emerged.

Bai Yifei's smooth internal energy flowed suddenly halted, and he discovered that the blood and qi in his body were beginning to stir.

The pervasive chill instantly froze, as if choked by an invisible lock.

Taking advantage of the moment, Yan Lingji's body erupted with raging flames, the ice and fire clashing with a hissing sound, the biting cold being forcibly dispelled by the scorching heat.

Taking advantage of this fleeting moment of delay, Tianze and Yanlingji moved like ghosts and disappeared once again.

A hint of surprise flashed across Bai Yifei's eyes, which then transformed into an even colder killing intent as he leaped into the chase.

Where is Princess Honglian?

Just as Tianze was flying away, another sharp sword light, like a shadow, came from his blind spot with a sharp whistling sound.

Tianze swiftly twisted his wrist, and with a backhand flick of the Tear-Stained Sword, he precisely parried the strange longsword called the Demon Sword.

The swords clashed, sparks flying.

Wei Zhuang's deep voice pierced Tian Ze's ears through the strong wind.

Princess Red Lotus?

Tianze paused almost imperceptibly.

He found it somewhat amusing.

Two similar people found themselves one after the other, and their results and purposes were also extremely similar.

It's all for the sake of the hostages they hold.

But why are they only asking about the whereabouts of one person?

Shouldn't we rescue both of them?

That said, the person in front of me seems to be acquainted with Han Fei.

After escaping his predicament, Tianze had already figured out the power dynamics of various factions in Qingzheng. Han Fei, the ninth prince of Han who had solved many strange cases, was deeply involved in the power struggle and had become a thorn in Ji Wuye's side. Although the conversation in the cold palace ended unhappily without reaching an agreement, Tianze did not have any ill feelings towards Han Fei.

Thoughts raced through my mind.

Tianze wielded the Tear-Stained Sword in succession, clashing fiercely with the attacking Shark Tooth Sword.

He then said in a deep voice, "Want to know Princess Honglian's whereabouts? Hold off that person behind me, and come find me in person outside the city tomorrow. I can talk to you then."

The sound came intermittently amidst the explosive bursts of energy.

It was just a talk; Tianze didn't mention a word about whether to release Honglian.

However, a rare and intense surge of emotion welled up in Wei Zhuang's icy eyes.

The decision was made in an instant.

Even if we can capture Tianze now, Honglian's whereabouts are still unknown, and she may have suffered a terrible fate because of it, which would probably make us regret it.

Wei Zhuang has always liked to take unconventional and risky approaches, but at this moment, for the safety of Princess Honglian, his choice is to "play it safe"!

"I hope you keep your word."

After saying that, he stopped.
