Chapter 285: An Unexpected Ending

ped down a mouthful. He probably drank too quickly, as he choked and grimaced in discomfort. 。“Indeed, it's quite ridiculous” 。"I agree with that," Kinuki said, after a pause he continued, "But it's p..."Who won" The head monk was a bit nervous, blinded by the flash, and hurriedly asked the caretaker beside him anxiously.

"Yes, yes, yes..." The official's eyes widened in shock, so much so that he couldn't even speak. The head monk was so exasperated he almost cursed.

As for General Li, after all, he was a man who had been on the battlefield and seen the flash of swords and shadows. So he was the first to see the situation clearly. Then, he excitedly rushed to the center of the courtyard and patted Li Yunfan's shoulder excitedly, exclaiming repeatedly, "Good! Good! Good sword!"

Li Yunfan let out a long, hard breath. His hand holding the iron sword was already numb from the previous blow, but his heart felt as if a giant stone had landed, finally easing the anxiety that had been weighing on him. In this moment, he suddenly realized that he had been worried about Qin Luoyan. He was worried that if his iron sword couldn't win against Li Yue's sword, she would be pushed out by the Fangzhu as a sacrificial pawn.

Although they had only met once, these past few days, as he went from courtyard to courtyard looking for her and couldn't find her, his mood began to sour. He didn't even know why, even though they had only met once, he craved to see her again so much. Even thinking about her being punished made him feel uncomfortable.

"How is this possible This is a sword made by the master craftsman of Beiming Nation, how could it possibly lose On my way back from the border, it helped me win hundreds of sword fights!" Li Yue seemed to still not believe this fact, but the broken sword in his hand constantly reminded him of this cruel reality, which ultimately still existed.

The blacksmith wiped the cold sweat from his brow, wanting to take a step forward but found his legs were a bit weak. He took several deep breaths, barely stabilizing his emotions, before walking up to General Li and saying, "General Li, as long as you are satisfied, that's all that matters. This blacksmith is one of our new recruits who worked all night to make it."

"Why didn't you bring out this sword sooner You had to wait until the very last moment" General Li was clearly not buying his excuses, and his attitude towards the peddler remained frosty.

The head monk's back was chilled, and he had to bite the bullet and say: "This blacksmith doesn't look very good, so I'm afraid of taking him out for General Li to see..."

“Nonsense! Do you think I, Li Someone, am a good-for-nothing drunkard I, Li Someone, went to battle at the age of thirteen and still have an eye for swords. I'm not a pretty pillow, why would I need it to be so beautiful” General Li interrupted him, no longer looking at him, but took the sword from Li Yun’s hand to examine it.

At the moment General Li received the iron sword, his expression immediately revealed approval. "Not bad, the feel and weight are just right. It's not too light to give a flimsy feeling, nor is it too heavy to make it cumbersome. Who made this sword"

Finally, General Li inquired about the origin of the sword. The monk saw an opportunity to curry favor and quickly pushed Qin Luoyan forward with a cheerful smile. "General Li, this sword was crafted by this artisan."

Only then did General Li take a closer look at Qin Luoyan, and he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "How young are you"

Although young, what he does is truly remarkable.” Li Yunfan seemed to dislike General Li's tone when he looked at Qin Luo'yan, so he couldn't help but interject.

General Li nodded upon hearing this and then asked Qin Luoyan, "To be able to create something so good at such a young age, you must have come from a renowned school This sword being able to defeat the masterpiece of the master craftsman from Beiming Country proves that our Nanyue Country is truly a land of talented people. This puts my mind at ease."

Qin Luoyan saw that General Li's attitude was still polite, which eased some of the displeasure she had felt earlier. However, she didn't share their joy, but instead sighed deeply and said: "Actually, the sword I made is not as good as the one in Young Master Li's hand."

She said that, and suddenly everyone around her was stunned.

Inside the pavilion, Li Yue, upon hearing this, was so agitated that he rushed out, growling, "What are you saying Don't think that because I lost to you, you can insult my sword! If you don't explain clearly, I'll make you pay today!"

Qin Luo Yan only slightly frowned, walking to General Li's front under everyone's astonished gaze. Then she raised her hand and gently tapped the iron sword in his hand...

A shocking scene unfolded. The once perfectly fine sword shattered into pieces. General Li's face was reflected on the iron blade, and as the sword broke, his visage seemed to be torn and fractured as well.

"Look, even my sword has broken." Since she knew who made that sword, she knew her iron sword couldn't win against it. At best, she could only draw with it.

Li Yue walked over and immediately laughed, "I told you so, how could I possibly lose This is great, I didn't lose! Then I don't have to marry that she-devil as a wife."

As for General Li, perhaps because of the drastic shifts in his mood, his face seemed even gloomier than before. This appearance made those around him reluctant to speak out of turn.

Li Yunshen was a little worried, and he couldn't help but stand up to smooth things over: "Although we didn't win, we didn't lose either. It's not bad at all. Well, let's just leave it at that. Let's continue drinking and eating..."

However, this time, he underestimated General Li's persistence. General Li stared at the monk with wide eyes, his gaze full of reproach. He was clearly and openly expressing his dissatisfaction and anger.

He was a soldier. In his mind, there was no losing or drawing; only winning! On the battlefield, who would care if you lost or drew They wanted nothing but victory!

The head monk's face was already creased into a ball. He had thought he had escaped disaster, but who knew something like this would happen again He couldn't help but blame Qin Luoyan. If she hadn't pointed out that the sword was damaged, General Li wouldn't have noticed at all, and they might have won!

"You!" the head of the village pointed at Qin Luoyan's nose and shouted: "I gave you so many people and resources, yet you can't even make something decent! You saw it yourself, General Li is unhappy with the sword you made. You have to take full responsibility for this!"

"…" Qin Luoyan didn't speak, she just unconsciously clenched her teeth. At this time, the person who first pushed her out to take the blame was cunning. As smart as she was, she instantly understood the connection in it. No wonder they let a newcomer like her take over the blacksmithing job. The original intention was that even if she failed, someone else would take the blame.

Now Lao Liu, standing beside him, seemed a little unwilling to concede. "Master Abbot, in such a short time, this is already quite good. We haven't lost after all..."
