Starry sky, I can hear their secrets.

"You asked me to practice lightness skills, but I have already mastered the Flying Swallow skill to the point of leaving no trace in the snow."

"You taught me the Taixu Sword Qi, and now my sword heart is formed, I have mastered all the sword forms, and my sword intent has broken through the shackles."

"You taught me to read and write, and now I have read extensively."

"Brother Jinyan, I miss you..."

Su Chang opened her lips, her eyes blurry with tears, and gently took a bite of the taro cake.

It's salty and doesn't taste good.

“Miss Su Chang, as you can see, he doesn’t want to see you.”

"You've won the lightness skill contest and got the letter, so shouldn't you let me, old Sangbo, go?" Sangbo shook his head helplessly.

With red eyes, Su Chang glared at Sang Bo and said, "You're lying."

"If he didn't want to see me, why did he leave so many letters?"

He said he was going to the river to go boating with an old friend, which clearly meant he wanted me to go find him!

With that, Su Chang lightly touched the ground with her toes, her figure ethereal, and in the blink of an eye, she disappeared from Sang Bo's sight.

Sambo squinted: "I, old Sambo, have done my best to do what you asked me to do."

"You saw it yourself, it was her insistence on going to find you, it has nothing to do with me."

Yaoqing, a merchant ship on the riverbank.

Su Chang held her sword, her beautiful eyes cold as she asked, "Miss Tingyun, is Brother Jinyan with you?"

Tingyun lightly waved her folding fan and said with a faint smile, "What an impolite little girl."

"How can you be so sure that Jin Yan is with me?"

"You've come to see him several times over the years, why haven't you given up yet?"

Su Chang lightly bit her lip: "He said he was going boating with old friends. I've thought about it and realized that you're the only one who would be interested in that."

"Where is he? Tell him to come out now, I must see him today."

Tingyun sighed: "Little girl, go back quickly. He left before you even boarded the ship."

"If he doesn't want to see you, with his abilities, you'll probably never find him in this lifetime."

Su Chang shook her head firmly: "No, I can't stand living like this anymore."

"I have done everything that Brother Jinyan asked of me, so why hasn't he shown up yet?"

"I must find him, even if it means traversing thousands of mountains and rivers."

Tingyun's pretty face froze for a moment: "In that case, I have underestimated you."

"Since you're so determined, then defeat these guards around me first."

“They are all top-notch guards of the Luofu Tianbo Division’s Minghuo Merchant Guild. If they all attack together, I’m afraid you won’t be able to handle them.”

Su Chang gripped the Xuanyuan Sword tightly, fearlessly charging forward to meet the enemy: "Another test like this..."

"I am no longer the naive and ignorant little girl who only knew how to rely on Brother Jinyan!"

Su Chang raised two fingers together, and an astonishing sword intent erupted from her delicate body, with thousands of sword shadows attacking dozens of guards like flashes of light.

The elite guards of the Luofu Sky Ship Company were no match for Su Chang's swordsmanship.

Before three breaths had passed, they had all collapsed.

Tingyun's beautiful eyes showed a slight seriousness: "I underestimated you."

"I never imagined you'd change so much in just a few years. What have you been through?"

Su Chang asked anxiously, "I won! Where is Brother Jin Yan?"

Tingyun asked in a low voice, "Sushang, do you really want to see him?"

Even if he no longer likes you, even if he has become a stranger to you.

"Then you'll regret it—"

Su Chang interrupted without hesitation, "Impossible, Brother Jin Yan's favorite is me."

"He said that when I grow up, he will marry me."

"Tell me quickly, where is he?"

Tingyun waved her hand: "Please come with me."

Su Chang followed Ting Yun, boarded the Star Raft, and after several turns, arrived at the Qingnang Pavilion of the Luofu Danding Division.

Su Chang's unease grew stronger.

Why did Brother Jinyan leave without saying goodbye? Why did he only leave letters for the past five years but never meet her?

Why is he not in Yaoqing, but in Luofu? What exactly happened to him?

Inside the Qingnang Pavilion, after hearing approaching footsteps, a blond-haired youth stepped out with a sword in hand and blocked Su Chang and Ting Yun's path.

He is Yan Qing, the strongest swordsman on the Immortal Ship Luofu and General Jing Yuan's personal bodyguard.

Yanqing looked at the two of them coldly: "Stop, you two."

"This is a restricted area of ​​the Dan Ding Division; unauthorized personnel are not permitted to enter."

Yanqing was very disappointed in Tingyun. Only five years had passed, and Sushang had not grown to the level that Su Jinyan had expected. Why did she bring Sushang ahead of time?

Su Chang drew her Xuanyuan Sword and pointed it at Yan Qing: "Yan Qing, tell me, is Brother Jin Yan here?"

Yanqing shook her head slightly: "Step down, it's not the right time yet."

Su Chang's beautiful eyes were sharp, and she raised two fingers: "Three feet of water can cut through the clouds!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than a giant sword appeared in the clouds, hurtling towards Yanqing with unparalleled force.

Yan Qing: “?”

boom--!

In an instant, the mountains collapsed and the earth cracked.

Yanqing, who was hiding in the Qingnang Pavilion, broke out in a cold sweat.

If not for the protection of the barrier, the Qingnang Pavilion of the Dan Ding Division would have been reduced to ruins.

Tingyun's pupils contracted sharply. She had brought Sushang here with the intention of using Yanqing to make her back down.

Did I not expect that Su Chang would grow to this extent in just a few years?

Su Jinyan knew that although Su Chang was exceptionally talented, people are inevitably prone to laziness, a trait that was particularly evident in the long history of the Immortal Boat people.

If Su Chang were to suffer a blow after his death and never recover, he would undoubtedly have betrayed the trust his adoptive father and mother had placed in him.

That's why he always avoided seeing Su Chang.

In Su Jinyan's plan, Su Chang would need at least another ten years to complete all the tasks he assigned her.

Who could have imagined that Su Chang's determination and perseverance far exceeded everyone's expectations?

"Who's making a ruckus in front of Qingnang Pavilion? Don't they know there are patients who need to rest? Humph!"

The petite dragon girl Bai Lu, carrying medicine, walked out of the Qingnang Pavilion.

Su Chang's beautiful eyes turned serious: "Another one. I'm not afraid of you."

Just as Su Chang was about to make her move.

A familiar cough came from inside the Qingnang Pavilion: "Ahem, Su Chang, don't be silly."

The figure that haunted Su Chang's dreams walked out of the Qingnang Pavilion.

"Jinyan...Brother..."

Su Chang stared blankly at Su Jinyan, then suddenly threw herself into his arms, tears welling up in her beautiful eyes.

Although Su Jinyan stumbled after being bumped by Su Chang and frowned slightly, he still gently stroked her hair without saying a word.

His body was still tall and upright, and his appearance was as handsome as before, but why were his temples gray and his eyes filled with death?

Bai Lu scolded, "You bastard, get away from him right now! What are you going to do to my patient?"

"His body can't withstand any more damage. Do you know how much harm you caused by that collision?"

Su Chang hurriedly left Su Jinyan's body, asking in a tearful voice:

"Brother Jinyan, how did you become like this?"

Su Jinyan gently stroked Su Chang's delicate cheek, his expression tender: "Su Chang, you've grown up."

“I thought it would take you at least five more years to complete the test I set for you.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he was coughing violently again.

Bai Lu angrily put her hands on her hips and urged, "That's enough! A patient should act like a patient. Go back to bed and rest!"
