Keyboard Immortal - Chapter 2771

Chapter 1284 of
Standing at the doorway was a charming young woman with almond-shaped eyes and rosy cheeks, her face strikingly beautiful. She wore a royal blue brocade fur coat, a mink fur patch peeking out from the collar. Her attire was remarkably
luxurious. On another woman, this attire would have looked gaudy and garish, but on her, it felt perfectly attuned, and rather, it seemed as if such opulent attire perfectly complemented her beauty.
Zuan immediately realized this must be Guo Fu, the eldest daughter of Guo Jing and Huang Rong. It was said that she inherited her intelligence from her father and her beauty from her mother. Though the true creator, Wang Shaohua, had passed away,
he could still sense some of her former charm in the young woman before him. Guo Fu’s mind was still spinning. Curious as to why her parents had addressed her siblings but not her, she had come to investigate.
But upon pushing the door open, she was met with such a shocking scene.
Yanhua was now sitting on Zuan, her hands firmly pressed against his. The struggle had forced her to exert all her might to maintain control. Their upper bodies were now pressed together, their faces so close they looked as if they were about to kiss.
What were they doing?
Wait, didn’t Xiang’er like Yang Guo?
Had Xiang’er been pursuing Yang Guo unsuccessfully for years and now, overcome with loneliness, was she in love?
Was she too discerning to care about other men, so she was looking for a younger man?
A myriad of thoughts raced through her mind, causing her already sluggish brain to shut down.
Yanhua and Zuan had been fighting, oblivious to the situation, but seeing Zuan’s stunned expression, she realized something was amiss. Yanhua
could clearly sense the masculine energy radiating from his body, the heat permeating even through his clothes.
Zuan could also clearly sense the exquisite curves and incredible vitality of Yanhua’s body. She had held his arm before, disguised as a young girl, but never in such close proximity.
The next moment, the two men tacitly stopped fighting. Yanhua stood up, uncomfortably adjusting her clothes and hair. “That kid just disobeyed me, and I’m teaching him a lesson.” She
glanced at Zuan provocatively, “Do you accept?”
Zuan replied gruffly, “Of course not. We’ll fight another day.”
Despite this, he remained deeply impressed. His mastery of the techniques was astounding. He’d gained more from their brief encounter than he’d ever gained from battling many powerful warriors.
Yanhua, in her own heart, was deeply impressed. She’d secretly observed Zuan, knowing his true strength. Beyond his miraculous abilities, her limited cultivation was completely unimportant to her.
While this world forbade supernatural powers, she wasn’t born this powerful. She’d climbed to the top step by step, experiencing countless life-or-death battles and near-death escapes along the way.
Furthermore, her increased strength had deepened her understanding of power. She’d initially assumed that even without the aid of supernatural powers, subduing him would be easy. But who knew, after that initial battle, she’d nearly lost.
It’s been a long time since she had such a hard fight?
She couldn’t even remember how many years had passed since the last such a fight.
Seeing the two people’s natural expressions, Guo Fu blinked and blushed secretly. Why did she think that way just now?
What a sin…
But of course she would not admit that she was wrong. Instead, she frowned and scolded: “Humph, you are not children anymore. You should act like a competition. What will happen if others see you?”
Yanhua raised her eyebrows. How dare such an ant talk to her like that?
Zuan hurriedly came out to smooth things over: “Sister, why are you here?”
He was afraid that Yanhua, who had been in a high position for too long, would impulsively push Guo Fu away.
Then hell would really begin.
“I heard that my parents were looking for you. What’s the matter? Why didn’t they call me?” Guo Fu was very unhappy.
“They asked us to come over and test our martial arts skills. We’ve made some progress, so we were just verifying them,” Zuan explained. “Big sister, do you want to practice martial arts too? I’ll go talk to them.”
“Forget it,” Guo Fu waved her hands repeatedly. She couldn’t bear the hardship of martial arts training. Her curiosity was instantly extinguished. Worried that her younger siblings would see through her timidity, she acted like an older sister and warned, “You should practice martial arts in the training grounds. Fighting in the room is not the right thing to do.”
Turning to leave, Zuan stopped her, “Big sister, where’s my brother-in-law?”
“He’s busy with Beggar Gang affairs. He doesn’t have time to spend with me all day. It’s so annoying.” Guo Fu, irritated, casually said and left.
After she left, Yanhua asked curiously, “Why are you asking about my brother-in-law?”
She was no fool to have grown to this point. She had gradually become immersed in the role.
The other party would never ask about someone unrelated for no reason.
Zuan hesitated, thinking that they were currently on the same side, and it was best to share some information. “Because our brother-in-law is called Yelü Qi, and his father is Yelü Chucai. He was originally a member of the Liao royal family, but after the Liao’s fall, he became a commoner. However, in the original history of this world, Yelü Chucai later became a prominent minister of the Mongols, even holding the rank of prime minister.”
Yanhua’s face changed. “Are you saying they will betray the Song Dynasty and ultimately defect to the Mongols?”
Zuan shook her head. “It’s hard to say yet. After all, this is just a trial world created by the God of Death. It may not be shaped according to real history, and there’s no such person as Yelü Qi in real history.”
“That’s not necessarily true. You’re a believer in memory yourself, so you should know the tricks of the historians. A person not mentioned in the history books doesn’t necessarily mean they didn’t exist. They’re either unimportant, or important but omitted for other reasons. We must not take it lightly.” Yanhua sneered.
Zuan had actually been pondering the difficulty of the Heaven Sword and Dragon Slaying Plan. After all, it didn’t seem that difficult, so why had so many previous trialists failed?
Is it true that the success of the trial is not determined by whether the Heaven Sword and Dragon Slaying Sword plan is completed or not?
Or is it because of some other reasons that the plan is bound to fail?
He thought about it and thought that the biggest risk should come from the Yelu family.
They defected to Mongolia in the future and were able to become high-ranking officials like prime ministers. Obviously, they made great contributions to Mongolia.
Moreover, they are now closely related to the Guo family and are most likely to be exposed to the Heaven Sword and Dragon Slaying Sword plan. To be honest, he even wondered why Guo Fu came to inquire.
You know, Guo Jing and Huang Rong called them to the meeting in secret, and it was unlikely that Guo Fu would know about it with her careless personality.
Could it be that Yelu Qi instigated her to come and gather intelligence, and she was so stupid that she didn’t even know that she was being used?
