Although Li Ling had spent more than ten years in the world of "Young Zhang Sanfeng," his mental energy, tempered by the world's original liquid, was already capable of carrying him into flight. However, each flight consumed a great deal of mental energy, and he could not sustain it for long.
Now that he has his natal magic weapon, the Qiankun Sword, Li Ling discovered that controlling the sword to fly consumes far less mental energy than flying himself. This energy consumption is almost the same as the replenishment from the World Essence Liquid. This means that Li Ling can now fly without restraint.
Hehe~
Watching the Qiankun Sword fly as if it were his own arm, Li Ling let out a joyful laugh.
With the Qiankun Sword floating freely in mid-air, Li Ling was like a child who had received a new and exciting toy, having a great time playing with it.
After that, Li Ling thought of another question and immediately communicated with the system: "System, now that I have obtained these eight precious swords and combined them into the Qiankun Sword, does that mean that the eight precious swords from Zhang Sanfeng's world are gone?"
The system voice sounded: "Ding, the items or skills that the system rewards the host with are all copied from the mission world and upgraded by the system before being rewarded to the host. The original items and skills in the mission world will not disappear."
"I see." Li Ling said, understanding dawning on him.
Li Ling had asked this question before, but the system didn't answer and told him to explore it himself. Today, he finally solved one of the problems.
At this moment, Gu Ziyun also came over with orange juice and opened her mouth wide when she saw the Qiankun Sword floating in mid-air.
"Ah, a flying sword!"
Gu Ziyun excitedly ran to Li Ling's side, handed him the orange juice, and then excitedly pointed to the Qiankun Sword floating in the air and asked, "A flying sword that can fly?"
Li Ling smiled and nodded: "Yes, it can fly. Shall we fly together tonight?"
Gu Ziyun rolled her eyes at Li Ling: "If you hadn't said [at night], I would have believed your lies!"
Li Ling feigned innocence, saying, "Oh dear, wouldn't flying during the day attract attention? At night, when it's pitch black, I won't worry about being discovered."
"Hmph!" Gu Ziyun retorted angrily, "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking?"
Li Ling chuckled: "Then tell me what I'm thinking?"
Gu Ziyun ignored Li Ling's words and reached out to tentatively touch the Qiankun Sword. Under Li Ling's control, the sword's energy was contained and would not harm Gu Ziyun.
Gu Ziyun felt the warm, smooth blade of the Qiankun Sword, then examined the beautiful and intricate patterns on it, feeling that the sword was incomparably beautiful.
She turned to Li Ling, blinked her big eyes, and said, "Honey, I want a flying sword like that too, okay?"
Li Ling looked at Zi Yun, who was blinking her big eyes at him, and felt incredibly curious. The once ruthless witch was now becoming more and more charming, but only towards him.
He laughed and said, "Not yet. This sword was a system reward, and I can't forge it myself."
Before Gu Ziyun's face could fall, he continued, "However, once we enter the world of immortals and heroes, forging a flying sword will be a piece of cake. I'll forge you a beautiful sword then."
"Hehe." Gu Ziyun chuckled, "That's a deal. I'll have to make a few more. I've been studying Chinese culture lately and have seen many beautiful swords."
As she spoke, Gu Ziyun counted on her fingers and said, "I'll forge swords like the 'Cheng Ying Sword,' 'Long Yuan Sword,' and 'Chi Xiao Sword' for you, one in each hand, hehe."
Li Ling smiled as he watched Gu Ziyun counting on his fingers, and said, "Alright, alright, we'll make a lot more, not just one for each hand, but one for each foot, so my Ziyun is armed from head to toe."
"Hey! You dare make fun of me? Watch my 'Tickling Dragon Claw Hand'!" Gu Ziyun scratched Li Ling with his claws outstretched.
"I still have orange juice in my hand." Li Ling quickly put down the orange juice and started playfully fighting with Gu Ziyun.
"Ha, tickling me? Watch out for my Dragon Claw Hand! Take this!"
"Oops! My underwear fell down!"
"What's a little panty? There's also a little cutie!"
"Oops, my [moral integrity] has been lost..."
"Pick it up later!"
Then a gasp rang out, and then silence fell.
Next came a sweet moment for the two of them.
A crab-like mythical beast named '404', which monitors all living beings, silently sheds the tears of a single dog!
...
After the clouds cleared and the rain stopped, the two started chatting.
Gu Ziyun said, "Tell me about your experience in this mission world."
Li Ling gently stroked her black hair, which was damp with sweat after her work, and recounted her experiences in this world.
Gu Ziyun listened as he recounted anecdotes and stories from a dynasty hundreds of years ago, and recounted the things he had done...
"So, you married two wives and had a baby in that world?" Gu Ziyun stared at Li Ling with wide eyes.
Li Ling chuckled and said somewhat awkwardly, "This was all arranged by my parents and the matchmaker, and I can't let them down."
"Ouch, why did you bite me?" Before he could finish speaking, Li Ling felt a slight pain in his arm.
Gu Ziyun released her grip on Li Ling's arm, looked at the teeth marks on his arm, and although she felt a little sorry for him, she still stubbornly said, "This is your punishment for messing with other girls."
As she said this, Gu Ziyun knew that Li Ling needed to have children in that world, but she still felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
As a modern woman, how can I let other women share my lover?
She said, "I will keep a close eye on you from now on and make sure you don't get involved with other girls."
Li Ling could only chuckle and agree, "Alright, alright, from now on you'll have to keep an eye on me at all times. Unless there's a special reason, I won't bother with any other girls."
Gu Ziyun nodded, not dwelling on the 'special reason' Li Ling mentioned. Who knows what kind of wish the system will receive!
