Truth Exposed, Empresses Beg for Forgiveness-Chapter 90: Draw This Scar Another Day, Visit the Grand Elder, Upper Three Floors of the Sword Spirit Library Pavilion! The Sword Heart Cannot Be Bestowed!
In the room, Jian Ling’er leaned closely beside the young Luo Xuan.
And the young Luo Xuan remained unmoved.
Or to put it accurately, how he interacted with Jian Ling’er before was still the same now.
The cultivators in the Celestial Emperor Palace saw this, and couldn’t help but recall what Wang Teng said before.
"In fact, the young Celestial Emperor’s aloof temperament... is indeed rare in the world."
"Indeed, not to mention the previous unattractive Jian Ling’er, even the now stunning Jian Ling’er, the Celestial Emperor still remains unmoved."
"Looking at it this way, at least at this moment, the young Celestial Emperor truly is a gentleman..."
Some cultivators subconsciously glanced over at Wang Teng.
There was a somewhat peculiar look in their eyes.
These people didn’t say anything, yet Wang Teng’s face was visibly turning ugly.
He had adamantly claimed before that the Celestial Emperor acted like such a gentleman just because Jian Ling’er was undeniably unattractive.
If Jian Ling’er possessed the unparalleled grace of the Sword Spirit Empress, the Celestial Emperor definitely wouldn’t be able to resist!
As it turns out, the words were quite prophetic, as Jian Ling’er indeed possesses the same grace as the Sword Spirit Empress.
And yet, the young Celestial Emperor was completely unmoved.
Feeling the eyes of the people around him, Wang Teng couldn’t help but feel utterly humiliated!
...
In the image revealed by the Reincarnation Mirror, Jian Ling’er always wanted to lean close to the young Luo Xuan.
She somewhat didn’t want to return to her previous unattractive state.
However, she was clear that today the young Luo Xuan still needed to go to the Sword Spirit Library Pavilion.
After clinging to young Luo Xuan for a while, Jian Ling’er eventually faced the bronze mirror, wanting to draw the fake scar back.
The young Luo Xuan noticed.
"Ling’er, let me draw that scar for you."
Jian Ling’er was taken aback.
"You?"
"Yes."
The young Luo Xuan had a good memory, having recalled the position and shape of the scar from earlier.
"Hehe, alright."
Jian Ling’er handed the brush and paint to the young Luo Xuan.
In the picture, the young Luo Xuan seriously drew the scar for her.
The cultivators in the Celestial Emperor Palace saw this.
They originally thought the Celestial Emperor would surely be able to perfectly recreate the scar.
After all, the Celestial Emperor had always presented an omnipotent demeanor.
It seemed that as long as the Celestial Emperor was present, there was nothing in the world that he couldn’t do.
If it weren’t for the Ancient Artifact Reincarnation Mirror sealing the Celestial Emperor within it this time.
They wouldn’t have even dared to entertain the thought of resisting the Celestial Emperor.
Just as the cultivators thought that the Celestial Emperor would certainly draw the scar perfectly.
The result, however, was truly surprising!
The scar drawn by the young Luo Xuan was crooked and truly hard on the eyes.
It seems the definition of deceit couldn’t be more fitting!
"This..."
Countless cultivators subconsciously found themselves agape.
For a moment, they almost forgot.
No matter how invincible the Celestial Emperor in the future is, the current young Celestial Emperor is just a teenager.
Jian Ling’er looked at the mirror.
"Pfft!"
Jian Ling’er burst into laughter.
"Hehe, who would’ve thought there would be something even you, this blockhead, couldn’t do~"
The young Luo Xuan was rather embarrassed.
Unexpectedly, this scar looked simple but was actually quite difficult to draw.
Jian Ling’er’s beautiful eyes were bright and shiny.
All along, young Luo Xuan had been the kind of omnipotent figure.
It was only now that she realized this blockhead also had things he couldn’t do.
This made her feel the distance between her and the young Luo Xuan had invisibly closed quite a bit~
Jian Ling’er laughed charmingly.
"Blockhead, you should take some time to practice once we return.
When we leave here, then you can redraw this scar for me~"
The young Luo Xuan handed over the brush.
"Okay."
Once Jian Ling’er flawlessly restored the scar.
The young Luo Xuan thought for a while.
"Ling’er, remember when I come back, I’ll go to your ceremony with you."
Jian Ling’er stuck her tongue out.
"I know, don’t worry, it’ll be in time.
The ceremony is arranged for five days later at the hour of You, and blockhead even if you stay the full five days, it’s totally in time~"
The young Luo Xuan nodded.
On this matter, he’d heard from Jian Ling’er before.
The hour of You, not only is it in the afternoon but closer to nightfall.
No matter how you look at it, the timing is perfect.
...
The young Luo Xuan prepared to return early, and after dining with Jian Ling’er he left the room.
Upon leaving the room, he didn’t immediately head to the Sword Spirit Library Pavilion.
Instead, he sought an excuse to meet with the Sword Spirit Race’s Eastern Sword Domain’s Grand Elder whom he hadn’t met before.
From what he heard from others and from his own feelings.
The young Luo Xuan completely confirmed the Grand Elder’s realm.
Mahayana Realm!
Though stronger than the Tribulation Realm’s Second Elder and Third Elder, still not reaching the True Immortal Realm.
Clearly, in the entire Eastern Sword Domain, only the Sword Master Jian Kuanglan reached the True Immortal Realm.
As for the Grand Elder’s personality, the young Luo Xuan could sense was arrogant and conceited.
The cultivators also noticed why the young Celestial Emperor sought out the Grand Elder.
"Is... is the Celestial Emperor visiting the Grand Elder to assess whether there’s any threat from him to Jian Ling’er?"
"Is the Celestial Emperor trying to see how long the Origin Sword Intent left for Jian Ling’er could withstand if the Grand Elder made a move?"
"I have to say, the Celestial Emperor is indeed excessively cautious. Actually, I feel the Celestial Emperor has done enough; Jian Ling’er’s safety is certainly assured."
"It can only be said the Celestial Emperor genuinely regards Jian Ling’er as a friend and doesn’t want to see any possible mishaps befall her."
"Indeed, since such loss and pain the Celestial Emperor had borne once before, he surely doesn’t want to bear it a second time..."
After the last Quasi-Emperor finished speaking, he realized he might’ve misspoken.
Even Wang Teng felt the tremor of the Heaven-Caging Tower escalate perceptibly at this moment.
If it weren’t for Wang Teng being the leader of the Righteous Alliance, he’d have wanted to kill the Quasi-Emperor!
If the words provoked the Lixing Empress, the Heaven-Caging Tower might not hold her for long!
...
In the scene, after the young Luo Xuan visited the Grand Elder, he went to the Sword Spirit Library Pavilion.
Actually, he wanted to visit Jian Kuanglan, but was informed the Sword Master would be secluded for the next few days, thus had to give up.
The young Luo Xuan went to the upper three floors of the Sword Spirit Library Pavilion to read.
Even though Jian Kuanglan had stated he would personally awaken Jian Ling’er’s Sword Heart, he first checked the methods to awaken Jian Ling’er’s Sword Heart.
But still to no avail.
However, the books on the upper three floors were helpful for him in experiencing the Sword Dao of the Sword Spirit Race.
Though the Sword Dao of the Sword Spirit Race differed from his own Sword Dao, they shared similarities and the reading gave him some insights.
Meanwhile, some concepts he hadn’t understood before seemed to open up new worlds for him.
"Sword Heart, Liuli Jianxin..."
"Sword Heart cannot be given..."
