Chapter 60: The Order Master Was too Wise
Nyoi-Bo Studio
After a heated discussion, Liu Zijin and the other three finally decided on the intention of the first rule of the three rules, which was to never reveal Brother Jiang’s skills. Even if they did, they could only say something about zither, Go, calligraphy, and painting. They could never mention alchemy or
making hidden weapons, which would easily attract the attention of others.
“Very good. Next, let’s discuss the second rule. You are not allowed to recommend Brother Jiang to be an iron seal for others. Please express your opinions.”
In the end, the discussion continued until almost midnight, when the five of them finally completed the first edition of the handbook, “Things to take note of when interacting with Brother Jiang.”
‘The most important rule was that one must never approach Brother Jiang or try to greet him when there were too many people around. One must also not reveal Brother Jiang’s strength to others, including their own master.
“Wow… it’s finally done.” Yu Guimiao said as she stretched lazily. Her face was full of fatigue.
“You have been eating the pies, and you still have the nerve to say it.” Yu Guizhui mercilessly exposed her.
“No way! I only ate three pieces, okay? And I also came up with an idea!”
“Yes, yes, yes. Look, I still have one piece left. Do you want it?”
“Yes! Sister is the best.”
Fang Qiuyao couldn’t help but laugh as she watched Yu Guizhui lovingly feed the last piece of Tuckahoe pie into Yu Guimiao’s mouth.
Back when they were not very familiar with each other, she had always felt that the three sisters had a strong sense of tacit understanding, They were also cheerful and lively. Sometimes, she couldn’t distinguish the three of them. But after spending some time together, she realized that the three of them
were actually quite different.
Although the triplets were born at almost the same time, the youngest, Yu Guimiao, was like a little sister, naive and cute. Yu Guishui was like a mature big sister who would take care of the two sisters. As for Yu Guizhui, who was sandwiched in the middle, she was a reliable sister in front of her third
sister, and a coquettish little sister in front of Yu Guishui.
However, when faced with the same problem, the three sisters would show the same reaction. It was very interesting.
“Since we have finished discussing the problem, let’s go back and rest. It’s getting late.” Liu Zijin said after tidying up the paper and plates on the table.
“Eh, I don’t want to go back yet!” Yu Guimiao, who was still longing for more, shouted.
Fang Qiuyao, who had the same feeling, responded, “How about… We all sleep at my place today. Just like when we went camping, we can have a sleepover.”
“Okay, okay.” the three Yu sisters raised their hands in agreement.
Liu Zijin said, “But this is against the rules.”
“Sister Zijin~” four delicate faces said coquettishly to Liu Zijin at the same time.
“Sigh… Okay then, remember to wake up early.”
“Got it!”
‘Three days later, back at Yan Peak, the disciples of the Order of Blue Heart and Order of Water Mirror gathered together. Both of their expressions were filled with curiosity and excitement.
Because 80% of the disciples of the Order of Blue Heart were male, and 70% of the disciples of the Order of Water Mirror were female, the meeting of these two orders could be said to be like firewood striking fire.
After the disciples of the Order of Blue Heart and Order of Water Mirror stood properly, Zhang Heqing leaped up onto the green stone platform. The powerful aura caused the disciples of the Order of Water Mirror to exclaim in surprise.
“Wow… is this the order master of the Star Luo Sword, Zhang? How awe-inspiring.”
“That sword aura is almost materializing. What kind of strength does he have to achieve this?”
“With such a sharp sword aura, he must be a very cold person.”
On the green stone platform, Zhang Heging coughed lightly, using mystic energy to strengthen his voice, he said, “Hello Everyone, I am the Order Master of the Order of Blue Heart, Zhang Heqing, I welcome all the disciples of the Order of Water Mirror to return to Yan Peak today. I will personally host
this friendly match. I hope that both parties can learn something from this exchange.”
“Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap…”
After Zhang Heging finished speaking, thunderous applause immediately sounded from below.
After giving a few more opening speeches, Zhang Heqing announced that the friendly match had officially begun. At the same time, he retreated to the back and sat next to Yu Manwen.
“I’s been hard on you to lead the team today, Law Protector Yu.” Zhang Heqing said as he poured some hot tea for Yu Manwen.
The collaboration between the two orders was a huge event. It was supposed to be hosted by the Order Masters of both sides. However, Order Master Shi of the Order of Water Mirror always acted mysteriously, and almost no one had seen her in important public places. Zhang Heqing also understood it
very well. After all, with Order Master Shi’s dressing style and her image, she was indeed not suitable to appear in places with too many disciples.
Yu Manwen smiled slightly. “It’s alright. I’s usually like this. I’m used to it.”
“Is this chair comfortable to sit on? If it’s not comfortable, I’ll find someone to change it for you.”
“I’s quite comfortable. There’s no need to trouble yourself.”
“Then is this viewing position still suitable? Do you need to move it a little?”
“It’s quite good too.” After saying that, Yu Manwen pointed forward. “Order Master Zhang, the competition has begun.”
“Oh, okay. Let’s watch the competition first.”
On the competition stage, the disciples of the Order of Water Mirror and the Order of Blue Heart fought against each other. For a moment, there were flashes of swords and sabers. It was a beautiful remarkable sight.
However, Liu Zijin and the others were not focused on the competition at all. Their beautiful eyes were searching for someone among the disciples of the Order of Blue Heart.
However, their gazes were a little too aggressive when they landed on the disciples of the Order of Blue Heart.
“Is that girl looking at me? Isn’t she too good-looking? She’s so outstanding even among the beautiful female disciples of the Order of Water Mirror.”
“Long live Order Master Zhang! Thank you for holding a friendly match with Order of Water Mirror. We might even have a long-term cooperation with them. This must be to boost our enthusiasm. I didn’t expect Order Master care about us so much. I, I was born to be a member of the Order of Blue Heart,
and I’m willing to die for the Order of Blue Heart!”
“The three women in blue look exactly the same, this is too… my hair is not messy right? Do I need to change my posture? Is holding a sword makes me more handsome?”
On the other side, in the Mirror Garden, Jiang Beiran was teaching Shi Fenglan’s maid how to take care of the flowers.
“This kind of flower is divided into hard-leaf and soft-leaf types. For example, this pot of cold moonlight is a hard-leaf type. The biggest characteristic of hard-leaf types is that there are white spots on the surface, or the nodes are in a velum shape. Meanwhile, hard-leaf types and soft-leaf types have
completely different needs for light. Hard-leaf types prefer shaded light to direct sunlight…”
Hearing this, the maid who was taking notes asked, “I know about direct sunlight. What is a shaded light?”
“For example, the light that passes through the gaps between the leaves is a shaded light.”
“Oh, I understand.” the maid nodded and quickly jotted down this knowledge.
Just as Jiang Beiran was about to continue, Shi Fenglan’s voice sounded from the side.
“Is it really alright for you not to participate in the friendly matches today?”
“But you didn’t go either.”
“Tm the Order Master! I have special privileges!”
“Then I’m an outer disciple. I also have special privileges.”
“You’re the only one I’ve seen who can proudly say that you’re an outer disciple. However, this is why I admire you.. How about it? Since Manwen isn’t around, should we play something more exciting?”
