Rebirth: The Time-locked Girl-Chapter 272 Falling from Horse, Warm Sibling Affection [2 updates]

Chapter 272: 272 Falling from Horse, Warm Sibling Affection [2 updates]

This comment left Xie Linyuan’s mind a blank.

"Clang——"

His hand loosened, and the Sword Saint’s Sword also fell to the ground.

The Sword Saint was always carefree and unrestrained, seldom showing such an out-of-character expression.

Xie Linyuan was already confused due to arriving in an unknown world, and now, for the first time, he felt completely at a loss.

He looked at the unfamiliar face before him, lost and confused, as he began to search his mind for any memories related to it.

"Linyuan, yes, that’s right, it is indeed Her Royal Highness the Princess!" the Jade Luan Pin shouted anxiously, "I can recognize her; it’s Her Royal Highness without a doubt!"

Unfortunately, no one but Ye Wanlan could hear its voice.

Ye Wanlan didn’t say anything more but waited for Xie Linyuan to calm down.

After all, only she knew that the Sword Saint Xie Leyou had three disciples 300 years ago in Jianghu.

The eldest disciple was Xie Leyou’s son, Xie Linyuan, who inherited his mantle and the title of Sword Saint.

The second disciple was the mysterious Master of Highest Heaven Tower, who had never shown his true face to anyone.

The third disciple was her, but she only studied with Xie Leyou for a short time before returning to the East Palace of Fengyuan to deal with affairs.

Ye Wanlan knew that Xie Linyuan himself had an unresolved conflict with Xie Leyou; he paid no heed to Xie Leyou at all, and thus did not know that Xie Leyou had taken the Master of Highest Heaven Tower as a disciple.

However, she and Xie Linyuan had genuinely met a few times, and Xie Linyuan always referred to her as "Little Junior Sister."

"You call me big brother, and I do have a junior sister, but she—" Xie Linyuan gradually calmed down, but his eyes turned cold, "she’s long gone."

Princess Yongning, Xiang Lan.

Even he had not expected her to leave so soon, dying at the most beautiful age of seventeen.

The death of Princess Yongning was indeed a big blow to him, and as he wandered through Jianghu, he would often hear different people talk about the Princess, which deepened the pain in his heart.

If anyone dared to impersonate Princess Yongning, not only he, but even the most ordinary civilian of the Ning Dynasty with no strength to truss a chicken, would tear the person to pieces.

Ye Wanlan still didn’t speak this time, but instead crouched down and picked up a twig from the ground.

She used the twig as a sword, her wrist flicking swiftly.

Xie Linyuan’s pupils suddenly constricted. This was...

The first sword of the Nine Heavenly Swords—

Long Song Ask Heart!

After the death of his father, Xie Leyou, apart from himself, only Princess Yongning knew the sword techniques of the Nine Heavenly Swords.

He was absolutely sure of this.

"Ah... Lan?" Xie Linyuan was still on guard, "How did you..."

After performing the entire move of Long Song Ask Heart, Ye Wanlan threw down the twig and said with a smile, "Big brother has traveled far to Fengyuan City, and just in time, the newly brewed Peach Blossom Snow is ready. Wouldn’t you sit down for a drink before leaving?"

The girl stood under the tree, and this scene gradually overlapped with a leisurely afternoon from 300 years ago.

"Little Junior Sister?" Xie Linyuan could not believe it, "What exactly is, how did... I remember going to see you off, you..."

He had personally watched the Xiang Imperial Family put Princess Yongning into the coffin and bury her with the honors of a sovereign.

He took two steps forward, his hands intending to grasp Ye Wanlan’s shoulders, but he saw his hands pass right through.

Xie Linyuan was taken aback once more.

"It’s a long story," Ye Wanlan shook her head gently, "Big brother need not be so shocked; logically speaking, the one to be shocked should be me."

She had carried her memories into another life when she was reincarnated.

But what exactly was Xie Linyuan’s current situation?

"Me?" Xie Linyuan also shook his head, "I don’t know what happened either. I only remember that at the moment I unified with my sword, my mind was filled solely with the thought of annihilating all enemies, without any other consciousness."

When he became conscious again, he heard a psychic from the Northern Lands on Shenzhou Land publicly boasting about killing people of Shenzhou with his psychic powers.

This severely violated his bottom line.

He didn’t know why he was still conscious when he was clearly dead, and even able to hold the Sword Saint’s Sword again.

Xie Linyuan returned to the present and looked at Ye Wanlan: "Little Junior Sister, you just mentioned that this is Fengyuan three hundred years later..."

"Yes, three hundred years later," Ye Wanlan sat down beneath the tree, "There are many archaeological teams in Fengyuan, and I happened to find your Broken Sword. I found the sword tip and the blade, but I could never find the Sword Tassel."

Xie Linyuan felt a burning pain in his nerves: "The Sword Tassel... Ah Yin..."

"When I was trapped in a desperate situation just now, the Sword Tassel that I’d been unable to find suddenly appeared," Ye Wanlan reflected in her eyes, "And then, after the complete Sword Saint’s Sword was assembled, I saw you, big brother."

Xie Linyuan clenched his hand: "The old man never told me that I could survive after using the Unity of Man and Sword technique."

But his current state was very strange, and he certainly couldn’t be called a living person.

"We must investigate this matter," Xie Linyuan frowned, "Little Junior Sister, we first—"

His voice suddenly stopped there.

Because he had just noticed that Ye Wanlan had many wounds on her body, and now they were all burst open, bleeding profusely in a shocking sight.

"You’re severely injured, yet you dare to use Long Song Ask Heart in front of me?" Xie Linyuan forcefully suppressed his anger, "Do you know what you’re doing?"

The Skywalking Nine Swords are highly damaging, but they also cause certain harm to oneself.

Although Long Song Ask Heart is the first move, using it when gravely injured would only exacerbate the injury.

Ye Wanlan gently exhaled a breath, her blood flowing out even faster, yet she was still smiling: "I almost forgot about the injury on my body."

"Foolish!" Xie Linyuan’s forehead vein throbbed, "You always said you hoped to have a healthy body, so you could do more things, but now that you have a healthy body, why won’t you cherish it?"

Ye Wanlan coughed a few times, stuffed a pill into her mouth, and said lightly, "Yes, I finally have a healthy body and can do more things."

"Doesn’t it hurt, are you not going to scream out?" Xie Linyuan took a deep breath, obviously infuriated to the extreme, "Aren’t you in even more pain by enduring it?"

Ye Wanlan just smiled: "After enduring it so much, I’ve become used to it."

In her previous life, when she fell ill, even the bones all over her body ached.

Even Shui Yunqing, the Palace Master of Taiyi Palace, could only concoct medicine to lower her pain but was unable to eradicate it.

The Supreme Elder of Taiyi Palace had diagnosed her illness, stating that it was caused by the palace change during her mother’s labor that disturbed the fetal energy, leading to her congenital insufficiency and thus leaving a root of disease.

"I can’t touch you, how can I take you to the medical hall?" Xie Linyuan became agitated, "Or should I say, what is the medical hall called now, three hundred years later?"

"It’s called a hospital." Ye Wanlan took another pill, struggling to stand up, "In this state, going to the hospital would frighten the others."

"Xiang Lan!" Xie Linyuan called out the name for the first time, "Even now, you’re still thinking of others, why don’t you think about yourself?"

If Princess Yongning hadn’t personally dealt with that catastrophic epidemic back then, perhaps she could have lived a little longer.

Ye Wanlan stood up, but her body was swaying violently, she sighed lightly: "It seems, I’ll have to sleep here for a while before going back."

"Don’t you dare sleep!"

"Miss Ye?"

Two voices rang out at the same time.

Xie Linyuan suddenly turned around and saw two figures rushing towards them.

He heard one of them telling the other, "Brother Yan, we’ve found Miss Ye, she’s badly injured, but don’t worry, I’ve brought a miracle drug this time, it can heal her."

Upon hearing these words, it was as if the other person let out all his breath at that moment, and he actually collapsed.

"Rong Yu!" Rong Qi called out, "Hurry, come help!"

One by one, they are all truly worrisome.

Hearing the surname "Rong", Xie Linyuan’s eyebrows raised slightly: "Great Purity Pulse?"

The inheritor of the Great Purity Pulse in this life indeed seems not too bad, somewhat resembling the air of that youth Rong Shi.

Depending on that no one could see him except for Ye Wanlan, Xie Linyuan followed leisurely behind and also entered the hospital.

A multitude of strange things flooded in, overwhelming his brain with too much unfamiliar information, making him stop dead in his tracks.

Although he had learned from Ye Wanlan’s mouth that three hundred years had passed since that devastating battle, and the People of Shenzhou had changed generation after generation.

These generations of People of Shenzhou rebuilt their homeland on the ruins; the present-day Shenzhou might not stand as steadily at the pinnacle of the world as during the Ning Dynasty Period, but its strength is not to be underestimated.

This is very good indeed.

Xie Linyuan slightly closed his eyes, his eyelashes trembling gently.

They staked their lives then to halt the enemy’s march, wasn’t it all so that the Shenzhou Land and the common folk could have a better future?

Then, everything they had done, was all worth it.

Rong Qi had the floor where Ye Wanlan and Yan Tingfeng’s hospital rooms were located sealed off, and medical personnel were coming and going.

Xie Linyuan had no time to study these modern new things and instead guarded by Ye Wanlan’s bedside.

It wasn’t until three in the morning that Ye Wanlan’s hand moved slightly.

She slowly opened her eyes.

"You’re finally awake," Xie Linyuan’s voice sounded above her head, tinged with a touch of teasing, "If you didn’t wake up, I was afraid some people would be in a frenzy."

Ye Wanlan felt that her strength had recovered quite a bit, she leaned on the bed and slowly sat up.

Xie Linyuan wanted to help her, but his hand passed through her arm at the moment of contact.

"..."

Xie Linyuan silently withdrew his hand, chuckling softly, "I almost forgot that I’m in a special state now."

What is he if not in a spirit state?

The door was knocked at this moment.

"Xiao Wan?"

"Come in."

Yan Tingfeng pushed the door and walked in.

Xie Linyuan also looked up.

At that instant, Yan Tingfeng seemed to sense something, he abruptly looked up with a "whoosh," his gaze swinging towards Xie Linyuan’s location.
