T/N: Also, I would like to apologize for a confusing translation with Bai Chengyu’s weapon. Gun? Spear?? It’s described like a bayonette, shooting things with an added pointy thing? Just bear with me whenever his weapon is being discussed… cuz there was also talk of marksmanship… idk. Will change it once I recover my “better judgement” bar

Chapter 085: Bullied

Su Tingyun is completely unaware that Bai Su, who’s just down below, is just itching to drag her down and beat her up. She throws the wreath, says hello to the orchid tongue grass next to her feet, then she makes her way back.

Su Tingyun comes down the mountain but she doesn’t immediately go home. With a few spirit stones in her pocket, she walks around the foot of the mountain. She happens to see a salt seller so she buys some, and she also spots what looks to be ginger and garlic. She praises the fresh ginger like a ninth-grade elixir, and she buys a pile of them with a low-grade spirit stone.

Seeing that there are people selling meat from low-level spirit beasts, Su Tingyun also buys some, then she has an entire stock of some kind of small red berry packed up, taking them all away. Everything totals to three low-grade spirit stones.

The flying magic device Ning Xuzi gave her is a Bagua (eight trigrams). She only needs to sit at the center. There is a formation in the Bagua, and it requires spirit stones to maintain its flight. She does not need to inject spiritual energy, but the flying device is not fast. It is much worse than Master’s big iron sword, so its rank is not high.

So it’s only after two days, at noon, that she returns to the Obliteration Sword Tower.

The sun is high up in the sky, and the water in the Cleansing Sword Lake is warm from it. There are ripples on the clear water, and there are a few pieces of floating driftwood that move gently with the waves.

As soon as Su Tingyun steps on the first piece of driftwood on the Cleansing Sword Lake, she hears someone shout, “Senior Sister is back!”

Two heads pop out of the pool with some splash. It’s the twins that Little Uncle Yan Yuqing recently received. The boy is called Yan Wuyou, and the girl is called Yan Wulu.

Two small heads emerge from the water, and one of them blows out some bubbles. They are children, and although the sun is out, the weather is still quite cold. They have only cultivated to the Qi condensation period, so for them to soak in the pool water this much…

It must be the way the killing faction cultivates. Little Uncle is a little too strict.

As soon as Su Tingyun thinks that, she sees Xiao Budian stepping on a flying sword and swooping down from the Obliteration Sword Island, making the water spray the whole way. He goes to the center of the little isle and sees two heads, which he doesn’t avoid. He zooms up and up and flies over the boy Yan Wuyou’s head— spraying water on the little girl Wulu’s head and face. He only starts to slow down once he’s just in front of Su Tingyun, almost knocking her down into the water.

Someone should get Xiao Budian under control, maybe get Little Uncle to be his Master.

“Senior sister, you’re back.” Xiao Budian says cheerfully.

Su Tingyun still doesn’t have her own sword, so she has to hop on the driftwoods to move forward, one at a time. But this time, it isn’t as troublesome as before— she doesn’t have any tests, so it’s very easy to get through.

Xiao Budian eagerly waits at the side, but he’s restless. He gets on a flying sword and circles around her while she’s on the water, saying, “Senior sister, you should get your own sword.”

When the pair arrive at the middle of the lake, another person suddenly emerges from the water in front of her, just less than three feet away. Su Tingyun is so surprised that she loses her footing on the next wood, almost falling into the water.

Little Uncle comes out of the water with a longsword in his hand, but there isn’t a single drop of water on his clothes. His face is stern, black eyebrows like swords, his thin lips are slightly pursed, and it’s as if a thin layer of ice coats his body.

But right as he appears out of the water, droplets still fly from the tips of his hair, which happen to land on the back of Su Tingyun’s hand.

She wipes it off, thinking that the water is cold, but she feels a slight heat on the back of her hand.

The next moment, Su Tingyun watches Little Uncle hold his flying sword and strike the water once, then once more, as if hacking the lake to split it into sections. The paths of that sword qi are moving towards the two children, Wuyou and Wulu.

The two children do not dodge at all, they endure the sword qi.

Both of their faces are taut. They grit their teeth hard and bear it without making a sound.

Is this the training method of the killing faction?  Seeing this, Su Tingyun looks at Yan Yuqing strangely. She shouldn’t give her opinion on the disciples of others. But now that she has returned to the Island, she sorts out the ingredients she bought, and selects a few to make dishes with could supplement and nourish. Later, she will invite the two children to come over for dinner.

—-—

Su Tingyun’s return has the whole Obliteration Sword Island become rowdy. Her master and the Uncles bring their own bowls and chopsticks to surround them. If she hadn’t set aside some food earlier, they would have eaten Wuyou and Wulu’s food.

Bai Chengyu has returned to the Obliteration Sword Tower for a while now. He also grabs a bite and contributes a pot of plum wine.

After eating his fill, Bai Chengyu says, “At first, I was waiting for you at the Wuliang Sect, but…” He points at Yan Yuqing, who’s still cultivating in the water, “Master came to find me, and brought me back to the Island.”

The Obliteration Sword Island also has mysterious features that nobody knows about.
