Chapter 59: A Meeting to Study Brother Jiang

“Alright, that’s all for today’s lesson. Also, I have something to announce. In three days, we will have a friendly match with the Order of Blue Heart. I hope that everyone will perform well and not tarnish the name of our sect.”

“Eh!? Friendly match?”

“Will there be a prize if we win?”

“Is the Order of Blue Heart very powerful? Why would they suddenly want to have a friendly match with us?”

After hearing the enforcer’s words, the Order of Water Mirror’s disciples asked curiously one after another.

However, at this moment, Liu Zijin was completely stunned.

“Isn’t it the place where Brother Jiang is… The Order of Blue Heart!”

“Sister Zijin, Sister Zi

While Liu Zijin was still in a daze, she heard Fang Qiuyao’s shout. She looked over and realized that Fang Qiuyao’s expression seemed to be even more excited than hers.

“Yup.” Liu Zijin naturally understood what Fang Qiuyao meant and nodded at her with a smile.

At this moment, the enforcer on the stage knocked twice on the lectern and said, “Silence!”

Inan instant, the disciples all stopped talking.

“Each and every one of you, what a disgrace.” The enforcer frowned and criticized the student. She then continued, “The reason why this friendly competition is held is because Order Master intends to cooperate with the Order of Blue Heart to develop and learn from each other.”

“Eh!!?2”

Liu Zijin’s beautiful eyes almost popped out.

“Could it be that our sincerity has touched the god?”

These two days, the five of them had been immersed in the regret of not waiting for their senior brother the last time. They thought that such an opportunity would take a long time, but they did not expect it to come so soon, and it was simply a pleasant surprise!

Fang Qiuyao even wished that she could grab Liu Zijin’s shoulder to shake it violently, and then give her a big hug and spun four rounds.

In their excitement, Liu Zijin and Fang Qiuyao patiently listened to the enforcer finish explaining everything they needed to know. Then, the class was dismissed.

After the enforcer left, the Tingyu Pavilion immediately started a heated discussion, and one after another, they recounted their understanding of the Order of Blue Heart.

Liu Zijin and Fang Qiuyao ran out together, but before they could feel happy, they saw three identical figures rushing towards them.

“Sister Zijin! Sister Zijin!” Yu Guishui, who was leading the group, shouted as she ran.

“Slow down, slow down. We already know.” Liu Zijin smiled and waved her hand.

‘When the three of them heard this, they stopped in front of Liu Zijin and Fang Qiuyao.

“This is too much of a coincidence. There are so many orders in the sect, yet they chose the Order of Blue Heart to cooperate.”

“This must be fate.”

“Yes, yes, yes. Now we can finally meet Brother Jiang.”

The excited voices of the three of them attracted the attention of the other disciples who had just walked out of Tingyu Pavilion. This made Liu Zijin immediately signal for them to keep quiet.

The three Yu sisters covered their mouths and nodded.

Putting down her finger, Liu Zijin said in a faint voice, “I think we need to have a small meeting before we go to the Order of Blue Heart.”

Fang Qiuyao asked in puzzlement, “What are we discussing?”

Liu Zijin thought for a moment and answered, “We are discussing how should we interacting with Brother Jiang.”

“Oh~” the three Yu sisters nodded their heads at the same time, then raised their hands in turn.

“Tm in charge of the pastries!”

“Tm in charge of the tea!”

“Tm in charge of the incense!”

“What do you need an incense for?” Fang Qiuyao asked curiously.

“For the chilled vibe.” Yu Guimiao replied.

“Oh… If that’s the case, then I’ll be in charge of the place. Let’s chat in my room. My roommate Qiulan have gone down the mountain for a trial, so I’m the only one in the room.”

After saying that, four pairs of eyes looked at Liu Zijin at the same time.

Liu Zijin smiled slightly. “Tl be in charge of the problem solving. Then… we’ll gather in Qiuyao’s room at eight o’clock.”

“Roger that!”

‘When the darkness gradually filled the sky, countless stars appeared. They began to emit their own unique bright light.

Under the starry sky, three figures sneakily came to the front of a small house. The leader had just raised her hand, but she tuned around and asked with some doubt, “How do you knock two short and one long?”

The two people behind lowered their heads and thought for a moment, and one of them replied, “It should be two quick knocks first, and then the third knock after a short while.”

“Oh, clever.”

“Hehe.”

After solving the difficult problem, the leader turned around and reached out her hand to knock on the door hurriedly twice, and then waited for a short while before knocking the third time.

Not long after, a sentence was heard from inside the door.

“A beautiful countryside at night.”

The leader replied, “and the vast stars.”

Then, with a click, the door opened. Three figures walked in after checking around and no one was around.

“Wow, aren’t you guys exaggerating? Where did you get the nightwear?” Liu Zijin couldn’t help but laugh when she saw Yu three sisters wearing black one-piece clothes.

“Didn’t the novels say that the mighty hero would often wear the nightwear to fight for justice? So, we brought it with us, just in case.” Yu Guishui said as she pulled down the black mask, “But compared to the straw hat that Brother Jiang gave us last time, this nightwear is far inferior.”

Then, the youngest Yu Guimiao also took off the black mask and said, “It’s so fun. I want to do it again! Let’s change the password, okay?”

“We’re not here to play. We have business to do.” Yu Guizhui said as she took out a food box from the storage ring and handed it to Liu Zijin. “Sister Zijin, these are the Tuckahoe pies that I brought. I brought them from home. They’re delicious.”

“Well, they look delicious. Put them on the table first.”

Then, the other two Yu sisters took out the incense and tea leaves that they had brought.

After lighting the incense, the five of them sat around the square table.

“Hmm… I’ve already mentioned the topic that we’re going to discuss today. That is the various things that we need to pay attention to when we’re interacting with Brother Jiang. I’ll share my thoughts first.”

“First of all, Brother Jiang’s three rules are definitely the most worth discussing. The…”

Just as Liu Zijin was speaking, Yu Guimiao’s hand stealthily extended towards the plate of Tuckahoe pies. However, just as she was about to reach it, her hand was slapped away by Yu Guimiao.

“Rude, Wait until Sister Zijin finish talking.”

“Oh… got it.” Yu Guimiao stuck out her tongue and retracted her hand.

Liu Zijin saw it and smiled as she picked up a Tuckahoe pie and placed it on the plate in front of Yu Guimiao. She said, “Just take it. There’s no need to be so serious.”

“Hehe, thank you, Sister Zijin.” Yu Guimiao shook her legs and shouted.

Liu Zijin touched Yu Guimiao’s nose, she then sat back in her seat and continued, “The first rule that Brother Jiang made with us is that we can say what we have learned, but we can’t tell others what he has done. For this rule, I think Brother Jiang expressed that he doesn’t want strangers to know that he

is outstanding and is good at all kinds of skills.”

Fang Qiuyao nodded thoughtfully, then she raised her hand and said, “We also have to be careful on sharing what we had learned. It means that even if Brother Jiang allowed us to talk about his secret skills, there is still a difference between what we can and what we can’t talk about.”

“Well…” Yu Guishui thought for a moment and took out a piece of paper. “Why don’t we write down what Brother Jiang is good at first?”

“Oh, no need. I have already prepared this.” After saying that, Liu Zijin distributed a few pieces of paper to the others. “I have already summarized it on the paper. If there are any more additions, feel free to mention them.”

“Wow, Sister Zijin is so thoughtful.” Yu Guishui took the paper and glanced at it. She found that it was very comprehensive, and there were even some things that she did not expect.

“Brother Jiang is also good at drawing?” Yu Guishui asked in surprise.

“Yes.” Liu Zijin nodded. “Do you still remember the drawing records that he gave me? I found out later that it wasn’t sold on the market. He probably drew it himself.”

“Wow!” the four junior sisters exclaimed at the same time.

“and…” Liu Zijin took out the drawing records as she spoke and turned to the middle page. “Look at this drawing.”

“Wow…” the four of them exclaimed in unison.

‘They saw that the map on the middle page had mountains, rivers, residential areas, and roads. Moreover, they were not marked with symbols, but lifelike ink paintings.

‘The branches of the river in the painting stretched naturally, which made the painting even more eye-catching.

“This… this drawing is amazing.” Yu Guizhui could not help but stand up and say to Liu Zijin, “Sister Zijin, can you show it to me?”

“Of course.” Liu Zijin said and handed the drawing records to Yu Guizhui.

After reading it several times, Yu Guizhui took a deep breath and said with emotion, “When I was at home, I studied painting for two years. In the words of my teacher, this drawing uses water as its bloodline, plants as its hair, and clouds as its divine color. In the drawing, the mountains live with water,

the plants are beautiful, and the clouds are mesmerizing, Every kind of scenery is arranged perfectly. It’s hard to imagine that this is actually a practical map…”

Putting the drawing records that Yu Guizhui returned on the table, Liu Zijin nodded and said, “I realized this painting was very unique after listening to your explanation. I feel that Brother Jiang must be incredibly good in many skills.”

Yu Guimiao nodded. “Yes, I feel that Brother Jiang must be proficient in everything. This is simply too amazing.”

“Yes, other than what I wrote, is there anything else you want to add?”

.. Ihave something else to add.” At this moment, Fang Qiuyao weakly raised her hand and spoke.

‘The other four looked at her, Fang Qiuyao said, “But what I’m going to say next, you must not tell anyone. This can only be a secret between the five of us.”

Hearing Fang Qiuyao speak so seriously, the other four promised that they would not tell anyone.

“Brother Jiang… he should also be very good at making hidden weapons.”

The black smoke that Brother Jiang created when he saved her that night was still fresh in Fang Qiuyao’s memory. The effect of sealing her five senses was simply terrifying. If someone attacked her in the smoke, she probably would not even know where she was stabbed.

“Hidden weapon!?”

The three Yu sisters were shocked. Only Liu Zijin showed a thoughtful expression, as if she had understood something…
