Chapter 220 The Secret of the Sword
Lin Qingqing recalled that the injuries on her body when she just woke up were not serious or numerous, and she immediately replied:
"Of course, Master and Senior Brother will protect me."
Mulan shook her head and forced a smile.
"guessed wrong."
"Missed?" Lin Qingqing felt that the possibility was very slim, and her tone was a little hesitant.
"Come again."
"I won't guess anymore," Lin Qingqing spread her hands helplessly and said, "It's boring."
"This is not like your style. Outside..." Mulan was about to say something, but suddenly Mu Jin's face appeared in her mind, and she stopped abruptly.
"Senior, please stop teasing me." Seeing Mulan lose her composure, Lin Qingqing was afraid that Mulan would become depressed again, so she immediately took over the conversation.
"That's true," Mulan sighed and said, "I won't tease you anymore. Yunmeng's target is not you, but the sword at your waist."
After hearing this, Lin Qingqing was stunned for a moment, then she touched her waist belatedly, only to find it was empty. She looked down and saw nothing inside, how could there be a sword?
"No wonder I always felt something was wrong. It turns out that I lost my sword." Lin Qingqing murmured to herself.
"At that time, I was puzzled by the incredible expressions on Murong Li and Rong Zhao's faces, until I saw the hilt of the flying sword split in two and something flew out of it."
"What is it?" Lin Qingqing's eyes flashed with a golden light, and she asked Mulan calmly.
"A peculiar jade pendant."
"And then?" Hearing Mulan's answer, Lin Qingqing's heart seemed to be lifted up, and her heart was pounding.
"Beyond everyone's expectation, Yun Meng leaped up and caught the jade pendant. She suddenly started laughing, but Rong Zhao's face turned as black as ink."
Lin Qingqing didn't say anything and listened quietly to Mulan continue talking.
"That is the key to the Rong family's treasure house." Mulan glanced at Lin Qingqing, and there was something intriguing in her eyes.
"So, the question now is why your sword contains the key to the Rong family's treasure house."
"Good question! I want to know too." Lin Qingqing laughed it off, trying to get away with it. She certainly wouldn't tell Mulan that this was a "token of love" given to her by "that person".
"Well, it has nothing to do with a dying man like me." How could Mulan not see Lin Qingqing's little thoughts?
"What happens next?" Lin Qingqing continued to ask.
"That's not hard to guess. What followed was naturally a battle for the key. The three of them fought fiercely, and the result is predictable."
"We are evenly matched," Mulan added, "negotiating peace? That's impossible."
Lin Qingqing nodded to show her understanding. After all, who would be willing to share the family's honor with their enemies? Wouldn't that bring shame to the family?
"After that, something happened that I will never forget in my life." Lin Qingqing began to tremble when she heard Mulan's voice. It seemed that this "unforgettable in my life" was not the same as that "unforgettable in my life". Lin Qingqing was a little curious about how "unforgettable in my life" this scene was that made Mulan so frightened.
“It can only be described in four words.”
She stared at Lin Qingqing closely and uttered each word slowly:
"Purgatory on earth."
"That guy released the things in the blood river!" Mulan suddenly screamed, covering her ears with her hands, her eyes full of fear, "They are all monsters! Monsters!"
"Senior, calm down." Lin Qingqing gently held Mulan's hand.
"I'm sorry, I scared you," Mulan quickly recovered and said expressionlessly, "You should be thankful that you didn't see that kind of scene, otherwise it would have been a nightmare."
