"...Strange, why is it this kind of corpse? Swordsmen like to kill people so much?"

Balliard is on his way to the imperial capital. Isn't Janna guarding the jade sword and so on? Although Janna's demigod-level strength is somewhat limited, it is not something that ordinary people can deal with.

Coupled with the special location of Jinghu Lake, if Janna doesn't open the door, the knights outside will basically be unable to enter. There is no need for Balliard to go there to join in the fun, and it won't be lively in a short time anyway.

However, Beard's true words have already revealed that there is Jhin's shadow in this crisis affecting Runeterra. Jhin is at least one of the masterminds behind it. Balliard must go and see what Jhin wants to do.

Then, he encountered these corpses, almost all of which had been severed. Before the body was severed and before the brain lost consciousness, they seemed to have not realized that they were dead. This may be considered the compassionate heart of those swordsmen.

Which swordsman likes killing so much? Yasuo? It's not impossible. Yasuo is an Ionian. Now the border of the empire is Wuji, which is also on Ionia. Yasuo can still learn to fight according to his destiny.

Feng Jian Dao, and then lived a miserable life in exile.

Hmm... Counting the time, Yasuo shouldn't be here yet, right? The demon clan is about to invade, and Master Suma will respond to the demon clan's invasion and die in the war. Yasuo is probably still learning the sword under Master Suma at this moment.

.

So which swordsman is more bloodthirsty? Yi? No, the Wuji Way has always disliked using violence to solve problems. Yi is the successor of the Wuji Way, so naturally he doesn't like violence.

Fiona? It's not like that, even in a duel, Fiona will leave the lives of those opponents she could have killed, and she is not an indiscriminate killer.

"It's so pitiful, but it has nothing to do with me."

Balliard walked by the corpses of these people. The corpses had not yet rotted, and there were no insects or ants climbing on the corpses. Coupled with the residual breath at the incisions, Balliard could definitely identify the swordsman who killed these people.

Even if he is not at the ninth level, he has awakened his swordsmanship.

"You are...Second Senior Brother?"

The voice came from behind Balliard. Balliard looked back and did not recognize who the person was.

But, if you call him Second Senior Brother, he is obviously a disciple of Wuji, and his strength is not weak, so that means - Fiona?

"Fiona? Are you out of the army?"

Balliard felt that it was no coincidence that Fiona appeared here, because this was not the road to Qingzhu Peak. Balliard was heading to the Imperial Capital, and there was another way to Kaiyang City.

Could it be said that these people were all killed by Fiona? It is not impossible. This world line is, after all, the world line of swordsmen. Under the influence of countless swordsmen in this world line, as the best swordsman training hall in the world

, the concept of Wuji Gym will be affected to some extent.

"It seems like we haven't started yet."

Fiona did not connect the corpses here with Balliard. How good was Balliard's swordsmanship? They knew very well that these people were definitely not killed by Balliard.

"Senior brother's strength seems to have not changed at all."

"I'm very busy. I'm running around all day long for all kinds of things. I don't have time to practice."

Fiona did not doubt Balliard, but Balliard was very suspicious of Fiona. It was a coincidence to appear in this place at this time. More importantly, Fiona had not yet left the army. How could she go down the mountain without leaving the army?

Dolan would allow Balliard to run around because Dolan had no intention of teaching Balliard the swordsmanship and swordsmanship. He did not need to teach the swordsmanship of an extraordinary scholar to delay others. Dolan was only providing Balliard with the necessary resources.

Some conveniences, by the way, are provided to the swordsmen of Wuji Gym.

Swordsmen will always be plotted by the literati. If there is someone in the court, the possibility of being plotted is relatively low. Dolan is not worried about Fiona. After all, she is the daughter of the Laurent family. She is very knowledgeable about political struggles.

Even if you haven’t seen darkness with your own eyes, you still know it more or less.

But Yi is different. Yi only has swords in his heart. He is not very familiar with everything in the outside world. He only knows the world he knows. Such a simple and pure swordsman is really easy to use.

Not to mention that swordsmen with swordsmanship can detect the good intentions and malice of others. This ability can only deal with ordinary bandits and other low-level characters. Those nobles and literati who want to scheme against swordsmen will not stupidly rush up to play with them.

Conspiracy and conspiracy.

It is not difficult for them to hide behind and use various coincidences to lure unrelated people to the swordsman's bait. In addition, those unrelated people do not know the calculations of these nobles and literati. In the eyes of the swordsman, these people are sincere.

To be honest, it is too easy for swordsmen who do not understand this method to get into the network.

Fiona and Yi are Dolan's recognized disciples. If their swordsmanship practice has not reached a certain level, Dolan will not let these two people go out and ruin Wuji's reputation.

What? Is it wrong to work behind closed doors? As a swordsman, you have to travel around the world to increase your strength?

This is really embarrassing. In other world lines, the masters and disciples of Wuji basically stay at home, and they never leave Wuji.

But even behind closed doors like this, they are still one of the best kendo schools in the world.

Therefore, Fiona is not released yet and is unlikely to be released by Dolan.

"What about you? Why are you here? Teacher won't let untrained disciples run around, right? Or is it time to go home again?"

Balliard didn't know the time very clearly, but judging from the color of the leaves, it was probably not the time for Wuji Gym to send its disciples home yet.

"I...actually...ran away secretly."

Children of the world shouldn't be coy, but Balliard is Fiona's senior brother, and he was the one who personally introduced her to the school. When they were practicing at the Wuji Gym, she and Yi were basically in Balliard's

Living in the house, Fiona had not seen this second senior brother for several years. After a long separation, she actually saw herself "truanting". Fiona was really embarrassed.

"Sneak out?"

What's going on? How could Dolan, a demigod, allow his disciples to escape secretly? This is of course impossible. In other words, Fiona thought she escaped secretly, but in fact she had Dolan's tacit approval.

Why? Dolan let Fiona go?

"Um."

Fiona's face turned red and she turned away her head and answered, "It's so embarrassing. I've always been a good student who studied hard. I occasionally skipped school."

, he was actually bumped into by his senior brother.

However, she still has important things to do now.

"Second Senior Brother, have you seen Yi?"

"easy?"

Balliard seemed to know why Fiona appeared here. Yi was too pure, and a pure swordsman could easily be plotted by others. Dolan allowed Fiona to sneak out because he knew Fiona would follow Yi.

Let Fiona help Yi with those aspects of the literati's calculations.

But why didn't Fiona find Yi?

"Yes, second senior brother, Yi has entered the devil's way. He only has swords in his heart. He doesn't care about anything else. Look at those corpses. They are all made by Yi. That's the aura of his sword. Senior brother, you are ahead of me.

Did you see Yi when you got here?"

Fiona has always been catching up with Yi's footsteps. This was the case when she entered school, and it was the same when she was studying under Dolan. When she was trying to understand the swordsmanship on the mountain, she was also catching up with Yi's footsteps. Yi was progressing too fast.

, and whenever she asked Yi why he was progressing so quickly, Yi simply said, "Your heart is not pure."

What, how can a person have a pure heart? Is a person whose heart is filled with one thing considered a human being? Fiona only thinks that those people are puppets, and so is Yi, just a member of the sword.

puppet.

"I didn't see him, but isn't this the way to the Imperial Capital? After hearing the news about Yujian, shouldn't you go to Kaiyang City?"

Yi only has swords in his heart, so it should be clear where Yi's destination is this time. But in fact, Yi is walking on the road to the imperial capital, and Fiona also thought that Yi would go there.

Kaiyang City, that’s why you didn’t catch up with Yi?

"Who knows what he was thinking. Perhaps his attention was attracted by something strange nearby, so he put the jade sword aside."

Fiona curled her lips. She still didn't understand what Yi was thinking. After living as classmates for so many years, she didn't understand what Yi was thinking.

"He's not worried that the jade sword will be taken away by others?"

Balliard felt that this reason was a bit far-fetched. Although when he was in Freljord, according to Ezreal's report, Yi's performance was a bit like a curious baby, wanting to see everything he had never seen before.

Look, there are priorities in doing things. Is it easy to have a moment of pleasure or to get the magic weapon? I don't think I would choose the former.

"Worried? Why should he be worried? When the news about the jade sword came out, he was saying that the jade sword was barely worthy of him, but he did not go directly to Qingzhu Peak. I asked him why, Second Senior Brother

What do you think Yi answered?"

Fiona and Yi had known about the birth of Jade Sword more than ten days ago, but they had only set out in the past few days. Would Yi be worried if they passed by in such a leisurely manner?

"What did he say?"

Balliard never guesses what the swordsman is thinking, because they are swordsmen and illiterate, and their way of thinking is completely incompatible with Balliard. Why should Balliard embarrass himself?

"He said that the sword was destined to be his, and no one could take it away."

Fiona thought it was a joke at the time, thinking that Yi must be very anxious and eager. Every night, she waited to catch Yi who was about to sneak away, and then left with Yi. As a result, she didn't find out for more than a week.

Yi was about to leave, so he finally relaxed and found out the next morning that Yi was leaving.

She thought that Yi actually didn't want the jade sword. After all, for geniuses like them, the Mu Xin Sword bred with their own swordsmanship was the most suitable sword for them.

"It sounds a bit arrogant, but...he may really think so."

Yi is a genius, a genius favored by swordsmanship. In this world where swordsmanship flourishes, Yi is the protagonist of the entire world. He can say such things.

However, even if you know that there is a high probability that the thing will fall into your hands, you can't just wander around. What if it is taken away by others? Balliard can create the worldless rune fragments.

The sword is sent back to Salvation. When the time comes, where will you find the sword?

"What are you going to do next? Find Yi with these corpses? I think this is the place. There won't be many bandits who will rob the road and provoke Yi. Being able to meet these people should be a big prize."

This place is already considered the hinterland of the empire. An empire may turn a blind eye to bandits in remote areas, but the bandits who appear in the hinterland of the empire basically don't survive more than a month. Yi can encounter those people, and he really hit the jackpot. Those people just

Not long after he became a bandit, before the novice course of Jie Dao ended, he encountered a big boss, which was regarded as a big win.

"If that doesn't work, I will go to Qingzhu Peak and wait for him. He will definitely go there. Second Senior Brother, where do you plan to go?"
