Chapter 670: Chapter 63 Li Guanyi and Shaking Light’s Martial World_4

"What are you talking about, Pharmacist?"

"What’s the use of such a giant crossbow? If it were smaller, it would be perfect for protection in the Martial World. Why make it so big? It’s inconvenient to carry around, and this isn’t a battlefield between two armies. Why create such a huge crossbow?"

The woman casually took back the crossbow.

Then she naturally introduced other types of crossbow arrows.

Among them, there were arrows with a double-layer structure that, once they hit the enemy, would trigger a hidden mechanism inside for a secondary strike. This mechanism used a flint-shaped needle hidden with kerosene and combustion powder to create an explosion of fire.

"Even a Martial Artist from the Third Layer Heaven who turned their Inner Qi into armor would get a fright."

"And those from the Second Layer Heaven could get hurt if they aren’t careful."

"There’s also the Armor-piercing Crossbow."

The first layer of the crossbow could only pierce the armor, making it tough to penetrate skin and flesh. At that moment, upon impact, a hidden needle made of cow hair hidden within the crossbow would pierce into the flesh, tipped with poison, specifically designed for Armored Soldiers.Lǐ Guānyí’s eyes lit up at the effects.

He almost felt like his heart was racing with excitement.

But the price immediately killed the brightness in his youthful eyes.

The little deer in his heart just dropped dead.

The corner of the Young Pavilion Master of Piaomiao Pavilion’s mouth curled up, revealing a smile that was both breathtakingly beautiful and sly, "Pharmacist, why not buy a few? Your martial arts are strong, but if you encounter an Armored Soldier, breaking armor with a sword can be tiring."

"Buy some, and I can give you a discount..."

Li Guanyi grinned, stretching out his hand.

Then, with his reasoning not quite straight but his spirit high, he replied:

"Broke!"

Gongsun Feixue was stunned.

Then she burst into laughter, her hands trembling like blooming flowers. Wiping the tears of laughter from her eyes with her fair fingers, she stuffed the crossbow into Li Guan’s hand, saying, "In that case, I’ll just give you this crossbow."

"You can’t do that. You are Elder Zu’s disciple, and in all his life, Elder Zu has never been short of money. You, you..."

She couldn’t stop laughing, taking out a mechanical bird and somehow making it work.

The mechanical bird flapped its wings and just like that, flew away.

Gongsun Feixue looked at Li Guanyi, her eyes curved and brimming with affection, her voice soft and pleasant, "Just one thousand five hundred taels..."

"Taoist."

Li Guanyi focused on his breathing, trying to still his mind.

At this moment, even the seventh wonder of the Martial World’s beauty couldn’t stir a ripple in his heart.

Damn, why is it so expensive?!

Gongsun Feixue laughed so hard she shook, barely composing herself before saying, "I’ll tell grandma you’re here, don’t worry. I have a lot of mechanisms here, but grandma has even more. She’ll definitely send you a new set."

This mechanical ship, foregoing all other destinations, headed straight for the Gongsun aristocratic family. Li Guanyi and Yao Guang sat at the stern admiring the scenery while many young knights with nothing else to do sat in another spot.

They drank wine, ate lotus seeds, and discussed various major events in the Martial World.

The Emperor of Central State was touring, and the Sword Madman roamed the Martial World.

Following that was the imminence of the Martial Arts Alliance Hierarch election, as well as the mighty Sky-reaching Sect’s ambition to cross the river like a fierce dragon.

Gongye Boxu said, "I’ve heard that the old Sect Master has offended the Qilin of Jiangnan, which is why he seeks to expand his power and preserve himself, leading a great sect like Sky-reaching Sect from the northern Martial World of Chen Country to extend its reach."

Li Guanyi: "???"

The young Taoist turned his head and whispered to Shaking Light, "No, he’s the one who ambushed me. How come it sounds like I’m the one who wants to bully him?"

The silver-haired girl’s eyes were serene, yet her body swayed slightly.

The conversation among the others continued, "The Qilin... His panic is understandable; Li Guanyi, at such a young age, secured the top spot in Chen Country’s grand ceremony, and at fifteen, defeated the Immovable Ming King Venerable General, spanning ten thousand miles, battling across various states.

"Sweeping through the realm like rolling up a mat, at only sixteen years old, his fame spreads far and wide, earning him the title Marquis Qin Wu."

"I hear that the Qilin’s army is now heading towards Central State, and Marquis Qin Wu is among them, isn’t he?"

Gongsun Feixue expressed regret, "What a pity, if it weren’t for family matters, I, too, would wish to ascend the river like a knight of the Martial World, and go to the Academy to witness the grace of Marquis Qin Wu Li Guanyi."

The silver-haired girl blinked but seemed not pleased.

She reached out and poked Li Guanyi’s cheek.

Li Guanyi couldn’t help but laugh.

Wan Mingyi said discontentedly, "What are you laughing at? Do you think what we said about Marquis Qin Wu is wrong?"

Li Guanyi replied, "It’s nothing..."

He reached out and grasped Shaking Light’s hand, answering, "It’s just that Marquis Qin Wu isn’t all that impressive either. Poor and miserable, it’s all luck. Without people like those from Tuyuhun, the Overlord, and the Red Emperor in Jiangnan, he wouldn’t have risen to prominence."

Wan Mingyi scoffed coldly.

Shaking Light seemed tired, pulling at Li Guanyi’s sleeve and curling up her body, gently leaning on the young Taoist’s shoulder, with the Qilin beside her, the silver-haired girl tugged at Li Guanyi’s sleeve, and without a trace of ripples in her voice, quietly said:

"I want to hear a tune..."

This was as coquettish as this emotionally reserved girl would get.

The young Taoist picked up a bamboo flute, put it to his lips, gazing at the ripples on the water. The lotus flowers had withered in the pond, and he just softly played, the Divine Weapon’s sound clear and distant, spreading far away. Suddenly, Gongsun Feixue and the others paused in their speech.

Their gaze shifted unconsciously, looking towards the young man. The wilted flowers around the pond began to bloom anew, the blossoms opening ethereally, ripples danced on the water, carps leaped forth, the silver-haired girl was calm, the blue-robed Taoist lowered his eyes, his hair by his temples slightly raised.

His grace was exceptional, almost celestial.

Wan Mingyi was momentarily stunned, looking at Li Guanyi, suddenly a frenzied thought surged within him.

He felt he should know who this Pharmacist Li was!

Who is he?! Who is he!

But it was as though his mind instinctively resisted recalling at this time.

So familiar, yet he couldn’t remember at all.

As if instinct and intuition blocked the memory at the gate.

Li Guanyi noticed that Shaking Light’s injuries were rapidly healing.

Just as the sound of the bamboo flute filled the air, they had arrived at the Gongsun aristocratic family.
