Chapter 32: CH-32: The training is over?

The night has fallen upon the sword sect, the moon and stars illuminating the sky.

A shadow was seen going here and there in silence, moving quickly towards a fixed direction.

Jian Yulan had just sat down to meditate when suddenly she sensed someone in front of the entrance.

Confused, the door opened, revealing a closed figure, he quickly came in, the door closing behind him.

"Why are you here!?"

Jian Yulan asked, her tone taking a sudden shift, her voice felt more solemn than ever.

"The Blood Moon sect is planning a rebellion!"

The cloaked figure didn’t mind her rudeness, a neutral voice coming out and then, as if he was never there, the cloaked figure disappeared, leaving behind a last message.

"We’re even now, so don’t knock at my footsteps ever again. It won’t be..."

But Jian Yulan didn’t pay any attention to what the guy left behind, instead her mind only focused on one and only one thing.

Those Blood Moon b*stards are planning a rebellion!!

The crazed smile returned, so did a strange emotion that turned intensely in her eyes. With saneless laughter, she looked beside her bed, there on a weapon stand were two cold weapons.

One of them a broken staff, while the other...

Her own sword.

"The debt is due, L-I S-U-M-I-N-G!!"

...

Next morning.

Once again Gu Changsheng and group came to the sword arena to train, but Elder Jian wasn’t here today.

Though they didn’t know the reason, they still continued on with their training.

"Sister Mingyue, let’s have a match!"

Ye Che asked, he wanted to ask her to have a go for a while now, but never got the opportunity to do so.

"If you lose, you will have to do the laundry for a week!"

He said teasingly. He had been trying to get close to her for a few days, and it was working, at least it looks like that.

"Sure."

Su Mingyue answered calmly..

"Elder Jian seems to have some matters to attend to."

An Jian commented, looking around the empty sword arena, a bit surprised that Elder Jian wasn’t here to train them.

"Maybe he really does have something important to deal with."

Gu Changsheng didn’t say anything, his eyes instead falling onto An Jian. For some reason, An Jian had been unusually quiet since they arrived.

Unlike Ye Che, who was already pestering Su Mingyue for a match, An Jian simply stood there with his sword in hand, staring at it.

"What’s wrong with you?"

Gu Changsheng finally asked, he felt a bit strange seeing An Jian, though he couldn’t pinpoint it.

But before An Jian could answer, Elder Jian appeared behind him, as if she was there all along.

"What are you both talking about?"

She didn’t look at them, instead watching the ongoing battle, just asking on a fluke.

When they finally turned to look at her, Gu Changsheng was a bit off about her too, as if she was... Happy, not in a good sense?

The match between Su Mingyue and Ye Che also concluded, with Ye Che taking the win.

"Your training session is over. In afeq days, Elder Ye will come to pick you all up. An Jian, let’s go!"

Time waits for no one, so does Jian Yulan, leaving behind an emotionless sentence, with An Jian follows behind.

The others left, though confused, nonetheless bowed to her retreating figure.

In this half month of time, she has taught them a lot, to say the least.

...

Evening.

"The training is over, hurray! Now we can roam together!!"

Said Dong Mulan, she had been roaming around the sword sect after being pardoned by Elder Jian with Ning Rongrong, enjoying the beautiful sunsets up the waterfall.

When she finally came home, found Gu Changsheng already home, explaining that the training session is over.

She was very happy about this, not noticing Gu Changsheng’s weird gaze.

"My dear Mulan..."
