Time Travel: The Heroine Has Arrived!

Chapter 95: Chapter 95: The Legendary Genius Junior Ancestor VS White Lotus Outer Sect Junior Sister (Part 9)

Gu Shengyin sheathed her sword.

“Thank you for the bout.” She cupped her fists toward the Guardian of Clumsy Sword Emperor and turned to leave.

Behind her, the Guardian of Clumsy Sword Emperor struggled to support himself with his hands.

The outcome was immediately clear.

Back at her temporary residence, Gu Shengyin could no longer endure and spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

The Guardian of Clumsy Sword Emperor, a renowned swordsman for many years, had injured her with his Sword Qi despite her narrow victory, leaving her with internal injuries.

...

“Detected host body sustaining Grade B damage, it is recommended that the host avoids intense battles for a month,” the system’s voice echoed in Gu Shengyin’s mind.

Gu Shengyin smiled faintly, “Understood, I’ll rest well this month.”

At that moment, a Communication Talisman in Gu Shengyin’s Storage Ring lit up, her eyes brightened—it was Xuan Ke!

“I’ve already learned of your duel with the Guardian of Clumsy Sword Emperor. Are you alright?” Xuan Ke understood Gu Shengyin’s level in Sword Dao best. He knew her strength was nearly on par with the Guardian of Clumsy Sword Emperor; even if she had won, it must have been a narrow victory.

“All is well, do not worry, Senior Brother.” After thinking, Gu Shengyin replied with these eight words.

Given Gu Weixin’s character, he would probably only say that much.

On Lingyun Peak of the distant Astrolabe Sword Sect, Xuan Ke looked at the reply from his junior sister, his handsome eyebrows furrowed.

Sigh, my junior sister, like her senior uncle, has a reticent nature; she never speaks up about anything. It’s really hard to be at ease.

Perhaps, after some time, I should go and see her? Xuan Ke thought to himself.

Gu Shengyin held a sword in one hand, and in her left, she clutched an object emitting faint silver light.

Many people surrounded her. @@novelbin@@

“Ice Heart Sword Emperor, we have so many people here, you can’t possibly escape. It’s better if you wisely hand over the Tai Sui, we won’t make things difficult for you.”

“Yes, hand over the Tai Sui, and we won’t make things difficult for you!”

The Tai Sui had appeared in the marshes of the South at dusk; Gu Shengyin had been waiting there for half a month before she finally obtained it—how could she possibly hand it over willingly?

The Tai Sui in her hand was at least eight hundred years old; with it, her master could last a while longer.

Gu Shengyin’s expression warmed as she stored it inside her Storage Ring.

Seeing Gu Shengyin’s actions, the crowd immediately knew her intentions.

“Ice Heart Sword Emperor, I advise you not to reject a toast only to drink a forfeit! With your beauty, why plunge into these pointless fights?” A man in a black robe stood among the crowd, his eyes obsessively fixed on Gu Shengyin, his level was also that of the Sword Emperor realm.

Gu Shengyin responded with a brilliant flash of her sword.

The man hadn’t expected her to strike so suddenly and barely dodged in time. Afterward, he angrily shouted at the people behind him, “Attack, boys! Remember, don’t take her life— A beauty of the Sword Emperor realm, this young master hasn’t had such a pleasure yet!”

Bai Xinya leaned against a man in blue, watching Gu Shengyin fighting off a group of attackers.

She hesitated, pulling the man next to her and asked, “Xinya, what’s wrong?”

Bai Xinya appeared hesitant, her lips trembling as she forced a smile and said, “Never mind, it’s not convenient to talk about it. It’s nothing.”

Despite her words, she kept glancing in Gu Shengyin’s direction.

The man asked curiously, “Does Xinya know that Ice Heart Sword Emperor?”

Bai Xinya nodded, “I’ve seen that senior once; she seemed… somewhat disdainful of me?”

The man in blue immediately felt protective, “What? Did that woman really act like that?”

Bai Xinya seemed embarrassed, her eyes welling up with tears as she nodded.

Looking at her, anyone who didn’t know better might think Gu Shengyin had wronged her in some way.
