Jun Ling didn't walk towards Ding Meng, but came to Spiritual Sword's side. "Prince Spiritual Sword, may I ask if you can let me take a look at your sword?"
Spiritual Sword found that Jun Ling's waist also had an ancient sword that was almost exactly the same. They both had perfectly straight sword bodies and jet-black scabbards, looking very similar.
After the long sword was pulled out from the ground, Ding Meng noticed the true body of this sword. This sword reminded him of the sword that Qu Xiaoqing gave him. In fact, the two swords were very similar. The scabbards were pitch-black, the mouths were square, the hilts were short and sharp, and the whole body was slender and straight. It was the most standard ancient sword.
However, this sword was different. It was surrounded by a layer of faint cyan light, as if a halo surrounded the sword body, causing the hilt to not have the cold sharpness of the Krypton Gold Ancient Sword. On the contrary, its brilliance was filled with a kind of gentle, tranquil, and sacred temperament. At a glance, one could tell that it was a famous weapon.
Jun Ling also slowly pulled out his long sword. Then, Spiritual Sword was shocked because Jun Ling's sword was the same. The sword body was covered with a layer of cyan flame. The aura of this layer of cyan flame seemed to be manic and restless, giving the sword a kind of murderous, violent, and crazy temperament.
However, when the cyan flame sword was unsheathed this time, the sword body hummed and trembled spontaneously, echoing with Spiritual Sword's sword. Even a person who didn't know the value of the sword should be able to see that the two swords must have a mysterious connection. Perhaps they came from the same origin.
"You …" Spiritual Sword raised his head in horror. "Where did you get this sword from?"
Jun Ling was very calm. "This sword was passed down from generation to generation by my ancestors. Its name is Red Lily. Where did your sword come from?"
Spiritual Sword was completely stunned. "My sword is the sacred sword of my Azure Tree Divine Clan's royal family. It was also passed down from generation to generation. Its name is Red Lily."
The Red Spider Lily was the Red Spider Lily. It had two meanings. One of them was endless love, the omen of death, and the summons of hell. The other was endless yearning, desperate love, and a letter from heaven.
The two meanings foretold two different results. These two swords were indeed related. Even the temperaments of the swords were completely different. Spirit Sword indeed had the elegance and bearing of a royal family, so it wielded the gentle as water Red Pearl Sword. Jun Ling was also a forest woman who killed decisively, so she wielded the violent and bloodthirsty Sand Flower Sword.
Ding Meng thought to himself, "No wonder even the Catoptric Deflection could not cut it. It turns out that this sword has a great background."
At this time, Ding Meng found that the extremely dangerous threat nearby had suddenly disappeared. The "eye" had mysteriously disappeared again. He took a deep breath and said, "Prince of Spirit Sword, I have no malice toward you. I just want to ask you some questions."
Spirit Sword looked at Ding Meng and then looked at Jun Ling. Then, he stretched out his hand and said, "Please come to the Thousand Leaves Sect's camp for a detailed discussion."
His action had already shown that the one he trusted was not Ding Meng but Jun Ling. Because Jun Ling held the Sand Flower Sword, even if they were not of the same kind, she was definitely not his enemy.
The one who taught him the sword technique was a highly respected Sword Saint Grandmaster of the Azure Tree Clan. The Grandmaster had also mentioned to him that there was more than one sacred sword. Anyone who held a sacred sword had close contact with the Azure Tree Clan. As for more information about the sacred sword, even the Grandmaster did not know.
There was a large green grassland outside the church building above the waterfall. Since Spirit Sword was the Prince of the Azure Tree Clan, Luo Buluo naturally had to arrange something for him. However, this arrangement was somewhat shabby. It was nothing more than a few simple tables and chairs. Because Spirit Sword had always disliked being surrounded by attendants and was extravagant, his material requirements were not high. Although he was an aristocrat of the royal family, his interest was in cultivation and swordsmanship.
After sitting down, Spirit Sword was not in a hurry. He very gracefully invited Jun Ling to taste the "Green Spirit" of the Azure Tree Clan. This Green Spirit was a fine wine unique to the Azure Tree Clan. It was brewed with a variety of spirit leaves and herbs, and had a very good refreshing effect. It was similar to the calming tea Ding Meng had obtained in the Meteor City.
Jun Ling was also extremely fond of wine. Madison Planet was poor in resources, and fine wine was a rare luxury. As long as there was wine to drink, Jun Ling and the other five would often have to compare notes with each other to determine who was better and who was better.
The Green Spirit was filled with two wide spirit leaves. It felt like dewdrops on a lotus leaf, very tempting.
Only after the fine wine entered their stomachs did Jun Ling open his mouth and say, "Prince Spirit Sword, we don't have any other intentions. As the inspectors of the factory, we found that the quality of the wood you provide has been declining year by year. Your representative has been unwilling to give us an explanation, so we came."
Spirit Sword sighed and said, "Although I am responsible for providing the wood outside the divine forest, this is actually not my intention. I am also acting under orders."
"Oh?"
Jun Ling was somewhat surprised. "If you can provide the wood within the divine forest, who should we talk to?"
Spirit Sword smiled bitterly and said, "It's useless to talk to anyone!"
Jun Ling was immediately stunned. "Why?"
Spirit Sword sighed and said, "This is a long story. In fact, your God War Starfield and our Azure Tree Clan originally had no intersection, and everyone was at peace. However, seven years ago, the God War Alliance came here and proposed the wood trade condition. My father thought about it again and again and finally agreed."
Jun Ling and Jun Ling listened quietly. There must be a reason behind this.
Spirit Sword continued, "Your human world is very different from ours. At least, the level of technology that you have is something that we can't reach. My father also agreed because of this point. His purpose is also to change the situation of our Azure Tree Clan, which has been farming and hunting for generations."
Ding Meng and the others had also thought about this point. Interstellar travel and slash-and-burn farming were really one in the sky and one in the ground. At least the Azure Tree Clan's king's starting point was good.
"It's just that my father's idea has always been opposed by my sister!"
Spirit Sword's tone changed. "Moreover, she is not the only one who opposes. Many priests have also expressed their disapproval."
Jun Ling said, "Why?
Could it be that they reject human technology? "
Spirit Sword shook his head and said, "The reason for their opposition is not this. My sister's view is that our Azure Tree Clan has always been blessed by the Tree God. The Tree God himself worships nature, and our planet is originally a natural civilization. Once we accept human technology, the two may not be compatible. Even if they are compatible, no one can predict whether the consequences of development will be good or bad."
Jun Ling nodded. She obviously agreed with this statement. "The God War Alliance is so powerful, but they don't even have their own planet. What they build is a space fortress. Powerful technology may not be beneficial to you, and it is very likely to destroy the ecological balance."
Spirit Sword said, "There is another reason that I believe you should also understand. The Alliance provides us with all the daily necessities. The daily necessities are indeed very complete. The armor on my body is custom-made by the Alliance. However, the starships, ships, weapons, three cabins, energy storage and other technologies that my father is looking forward to are never provided by the Alliance. Every negotiation between our priests and your commanders has been very unpleasant …"
Ding Meng and the others had also thought of the following situation. That was, the Azure Tree Clan would also reduce the quality of wood year by year to deal with the Alliance's approach.
Spirit Sword explained, "My father was also forced to issue such an order under the pressure of the opposition. Therefore, it's useless for you to discuss it with anyone."
Ding Meng and Jun Ling suddenly fell into silence. This matter was no longer something that people at their level could solve.
Spirit Sword said, "Actually, the opposition's suspicion is also reasonable."
Ding Meng finally spoke, "What are they suspecting?"
Seeing that it was him who asked the question, Spirit Sword immediately shut up.
Jun Ling couldn't help but smile and said, "Prince of Spirit Sword, this is my companion, Ding Meng. Although he is also a factory inspector, the two of us have no malice toward your family. Nicole was rescued by him, so I absolutely trust him."
In the distance, Nicona immediately put her hand on her forehead and gently reached out to Ding Meng, who was sitting on the straw stool. Ding Meng slightly nodded.
Spirit Sword nodded. "Miss Nicona's breath is a rare pure person in our Azure Tree Clan. I have reason to believe that the Royal Band will accept her."
Nicona immediately bowed to Spirit Sword to express her deep gratitude.
Spirit Sword then sighed. "According to our information, the six major sects of the God War Alliance are actually very warlike. They constantly expand the star ring in space and compete for resources everywhere. This is not a peace-loving sect. The opposition suspects that their motives are impure."
Ding Meng nodded. "Actually, I think so too."
Spirit Sword said, "Our Azure Tree Clan, from people to things, including rivers, mountains, and birds, all rely on the protection and grace of the Tree God. On the surface, they are trading our wood, but in fact, I'm afraid that they want to spy on our great God through the study of the Azure Spirit Divine Wood. The God is supreme and will never allow outsiders to touch it."
Ding Meng pondered and said, "Prince Spirit Sword, I have a hypothesis that I hope you don't mind. You should know that the fleet on the space station is so huge and powerful. Why don't they directly descend on your divine forest?"
Spirit Sword snorted disdainfully. "How can the power of God be imagined by ordinary people?
No matter how powerful the Alliance is, they still have scruples about God. How can they easily invade?
That's why they used this indirect method. But unfortunately, my sister is a wise person. She saw through the Alliance's intentions. "
Ding Meng hesitated. "Is your Tree God really so powerful?"
Spirit Sword also seemed to hesitate: "You obviously had the chance to kill me before, but you didn't do it. Did you feel that the Tree God was nearby? You are also a Warlock, so you should be able to feel it."
Ding Meng felt a little uncomfortable at the mention of the mysterious "eyes", but he also felt that there was no need to lie. "Yes, it should be nearby at that time. I couldn't see it, but I'm sure it definitely exists. I have this feeling."
Spirit Sword hurriedly asked, "Is it this feeling? It is silently watching you, as if it is far away from you, but also as if it is beside you."
Ding Meng nodded. "Yes, it is this feeling. From the space station to the ground, it was almost always there. It is very magical."
Spirit Sword suddenly showed an envious expression. He sighed deeply. "Human, you are actually the lucky one of our Azure Tree Clan."
Ding Meng was stunned. "Why do you say so?"
