"I should have known that nothing good would come out of following you!"
Zhao Hao smiled bitterly. "I don't want to go to Beijing City. I want to go back to Yuzhang City to do my research. Is that okay?"
"Then please continue to stay in prison …" Guhan nodded. He was telling the truth. Guhan could only ask Liu Lei to put Zhao Hao back in prison and forbid anyone from visiting him, not even the prison guards. Only the robots would deliver his meals every day. This way, Guhan could feel a little more secure.
"Then when can I be released?" Zhao Hao asked again. "You don't want to lock me up forever, do you?"
"Not really … I promise you, when I become a sword wielder of the immortal sword one day, I will definitely let you out. When that time comes, you can say whatever you want. I will not interfere!" Guhan promised.
"Then can I continue my research in prison?" Zhao Hao tugged at his beard.
"Yes."
Gu Han readily agreed. This was easy to deal with. They could just directly lock Zhao Hao back in the original prison. The laboratory and the like were all ready-made.
However, the prison had to be remodeled. At the very least, all the prison guards had to be replaced with robot prison guards. This way, he could ensure that no rumors about Zhao Hao would spread.
…
A few hours later, Guhan returned to Yuzhang City again.
Once again, he entered through the small door and disguised his appearance. Then, he stealthily contacted Liu Lei's personal terminal.
"Master!" Guhan said respectfully.
"What do you want from me?
I am busy and have no time to deal with your trivial matters. "
Although Liu Lei was unhappy, he took the initiative to ask, "Kid, how are you doing in Beijing City?
Are you living so comfortably that you have even forgotten about your master?
After more than ten days, there is no communication at all. I really wasted my time taking you as a disciple. "
Guhan did not complain about Liu Lei's contradictory words. He asked very straightforwardly, "Master, do you have time to come out for a while?"
"No!"
Liu Lei's answer was also very straightforward. "There are a lot of trivial matters today. Your master's head is about to explode … Your master is an old man in his eighties!
How could they withstand such torment?
Besides, why do you want me to go out?
Have you returned to Yuzhang City? "
"Cough cough!
Master, your disciple is unfilial. Your disciple is now in the Starbucks Teahouse in Yuzhang City. "Guhan said in a low voice.
"What did you say?
You bastard, Master will be here soon. You better wait for me. How dare you come back! "The other end of the communication was hung up with a bang.
Hearing Liu Lei hang up the phone, Guhan calmly picked up an empty teacup from the side, picked up the teapot, and slowly filled the empty teacup.
In less than five seconds, a Void Door opened beside Guhan, and Liu Lei directly teleported out from the Void Door … This made Guhan very envious, so the Void Door could actually be used at this time.
"You stinking brat, running back without a word, just what are you up to?
Don't tell me you're trying to trick me like last time! "
Liu Lei said unhappily. The mess that Guhan left behind before leaving Yuzhang City had not been cleaned up by Liu Lei until now.
"Master, please have some tea!"
Guhan handed the freshly filled teacup to Liu Lei. Liu Lei snorted coldly and directly drank the tea in the teacup.
"Your disciple wouldn't dare trick Master!
Your disciple will return this person to Master. "When Liu Lei finished drinking, Guhan pointed to Zhao Hao beside him and said.
"Tianri!
It's actually you!
Where the hell did you run off to? The entire Yuzhang City is going crazy looking for you! "Liu Lei finally realized that Zhao Hao was also sitting next to Gu Han. He roared in a loud voice.
Liu Lei wasn't lying. Yesterday morning, his subordinates reported to him that Grandmaster Tianri, Zhao Hao, who was originally staying in Mount Tai Prison, had disappeared. Along with Zhao Hao was the broken Zhongdian Sword.
Moreover, according to another prison report, Zhao Hao's prison laboratory showed signs of being used. After Zhao Hao left Mount Tai Prison, he should have returned to that prison laboratory. Unfortunately, a day had passed, and there was still no trace of Zhao Hao.
Losing the Zhongdian Sword was not a big deal. Liu Lei didn't care about the broken Sword Maiden. What Liu Lei really cared about was Zhao Hao.
As one of the three rare Grandmaster Swordsmiths in Yuzhang City, losing one meant that Yuzhang City had lost one-third of its high-end blacksmithing ability. How could Liu Lei not be anxious?
"Master, don't be angry. Your disciple has returned Grandmaster Tianri to you." Guhan chuckled and handed over the Zhongdian Sword. "Master, look at this sword."
"This is the Zhongdian Sword!
She's been repaired! "Liu Lei's eyes lit up.
As the former Sword Pavilion Master, Liu Lei naturally had all the information about the Sword Lady in his mind. Thus, he recognized that this was the Ultimate Sword that had caused all the trouble at first glance.
"That's right!
It's been repaired completely. Even the sword's spirituality has been restored. This is an Innate Ancient Sword Maiden that can be synchronized at any time! "
Liu Lei said excitedly. He thought that he had completely lost the Innate Ancient Sword Maiden. He didn't expect it to appear in front of him in perfect condition again.
"Tianri!
You didn't fix it, did you?
You escaped from Mount Tai Prison to find a chance to repair this sword to atone for your sins, right? "
The more Liu Lei spoke, the more surprised he became. "I've really underestimated you. You can actually repair the broken Sword Maiden. It seems that you've advanced to become a Grandmaster Swordsmithing!"
"Hahahaha!
After two hundred years, Yuzhang City finally has its own Grandmaster Swordsmithing! "Liu Lei suddenly laughed maniacally.
"Ahem!
Lord Liu Lei, I'm very sorry. I didn't repair this Zhongdian Sword! "Zhao Hao coughed and said awkwardly.
"You didn't repair it?"
Liu Lei vividly demonstrated the essence of changing his face, directly changing from ecstasy to the current contempt, "Did you go and ask Grandmaster Chi Yue to come back and help you repair it?"
"… Of course not … Master doesn't recognize me as his disciple anymore … I don't have the face to ask Master Scarlet Moon to repair it."
Zhao Hao said shamefully. "Actually, it was Lord Guhan who repaired the Zhongdian Sword Maiden. It has nothing to do with me."
"After all this time, it's still because of you!" Liu Lei punched Guhan's shoulder. "Tell me!
What's going on?
As long as you don't tell me that you've become a Grandmaster Swordsmithing, I can accept anything that happens to you. "
"It's not a big deal. I just used the Furnace of Heaven and Earth to repair the Sword of Zhong Dian!" Gu Han replied with his head lowered. After that, Gu Han eagerly filled Liu Lei's teacup.
Clang! The teacup in Liu Lei's hand fell to the ground, and hot tea splashed all over the table.
"What did you say you activated?" Liu Lei slapped himself in the face. He could not accept Guhan's words.
"Lord Liu Lei, Lord Guhan did activate the Furnace of Heaven and Earth. I can testify to that!" Zhao Hao said with a bitter smile.
"What's going on in here?
I'll give you five minutes to explain everything clearly to me! "Liu Lei heavily slammed the table and sternly reprimanded.
… …
Five minutes was more than enough for Gu Han to explain the situation in a simple manner.
Guhan first sent Zhao Hao away, then told Liu Lei everything. He even told Liu Lei about the changes in the King of Yue and Fleeting Lina.
After interacting with him for so many days, Guhan had a deep trust in his master. That was why Guhan did not hide anything from him.
"What the hell is going on?" Liu Lei did not know how long it took for him to digest Guhan's words.
He then said in disbelief, "That means that you, who is only a Famed Sword rank, already have six Swordmaidens!"
"Yes!"
Gu Han nodded and waved his hand. The six Sword Ladies — Pure Poverty, Shishui, Heavenly Reliance, Douyu, Ju Zi, and Qidian — were released from Gu Han's scabbard one after another. They started arguing and complaining about why Gu Han had kept them in the scabbard for so long. They were expressing their serious protests.
"This is my master!
Hurry up and greet them! "Gu Han's face flashed with a trace of awkwardness, and immediately spoke to his 6 Sword Ladies.
"Greetings, Master!"
"Greetings, Grandmaster!"
"Greetings, Senior!"
"Greetings, Master!"
All sorts of greetings came from the mouths of the six Swordmaidens. The first greeting and the last greeting were actually separated by ten seconds. When Liu Lei heard it, it was as if a group of demons were dancing.
"Greetings!"
"Greetings!"
However, Liu Lei did not have the time to care about this. Even though he was used to such a scene, he seemed to be at a loss. He acted like a father-in-law who had suddenly seen his six daughters-in-law. He was completely at a loss.
"Damn it, those who don't know might think that you have become Jiandi!"
Liu Lei kicked Guhan. "Tell me honestly, are you Jiandi now?"
"Master, I am a true Famed Sword rank sword wielder. I am honest with you," Guhan replied with his head lowered.
"How did you do it?
How can you, a Famed Sword rank, have six Swordmaidens at the same time? "
Liu Lei felt that his worldview had been completely destroyed. If this news was made public, the worldview of the entire human world would be completely destroyed.
A Famed Sword rank sword wielder actually had six Swordmaidens. Could it be that a sword wielder who was even more terrifying than Kenzu was about to be born?
"I don't know either. I am also at a loss right now …" Guhan was telling the truth. Other than the reason for Douyu, Guhan was clear.
This Shishui, who had inexplicably become the starting point of his second Famed Sword rank Swordmaiden and the second Ancient Sword rank Swordmaiden, was something that Guhan really could not understand.
Liu Lei suddenly moved closer to Guhan's ear and whispered, "Brat, have you ever heard of this saying?"
"What?" Guhan was at a loss.
"Da Mei Xing, King Chuanpu!"
Liu Lei said a common saying. Guhan knew this saying. This was a saying found in the ruins of Washington a few years ago. It seemed to be talking about the story of the penultimate president of the American Empire before the apocalypse, Trump.
Legend had it that before he ascended to the throne, the entire American Empire was talking about this saying.
"I think this saying can be changed. You can call him that in the future."
"Your Excellency, King Gu Han!" Liu Lei said with a straight face.
