Chapter 205: Departure to Nanjiang

ut what >Su Qingying looked at him blankly, but when the horse she was leaning against suddenly reared up, her heart skipped a beat."Holy crap! I'm going to be trampled to death!" Su Qingying's eyebal..."Wait! I remember!" Shangguan Jinghong hadn't finished her sentence when Zhao Tianyu, who had been lost in thought for a long time, suddenly interrupted her. His eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, "The Golden Cicada Gu is afraid of dirt. Perhaps we can use this weakness of it to buy Dongyue Huang another month of time."

Upon hearing this, Su Qingying and her brother exchanged glances, both seeing a glimmer of excitement in each other's eyes.

"A month isn't enough time, it took us a whole month just to reach Nanjiang, how can we possibly find a cure" Shangguan Jinghong said again.

Upon hearing that there was a way to control the Golden Cicada Worm, Su Qingying's face relaxed slightly. A heart that had been hanging in her throat finally settled down. She smiled with ease and confidence, two shallow dimples on her cheeks radiating cuteness and brilliance. “Don’t worry! I have a way to shorten the journey to within fifteen days.”

Shangguan Jinghong was not a foolish person. After a moment of stunned silence, he quickly figured out the answer. His long eyebrows shot up. "Little girl, are you trying to borrow that flying thing"

Last time, she and Heixinye escaped death from the bottom of the cliff on that huge creature. But it caused a big stir in Ximing Kingdom. If so, the travel issue is indeed resolved.

"Flying over Are you talking about a glider" Zhao Tianyu had crawled and tumbled through the modern world. Hearing this, his eyebrows twitched slightly, and he immediately guessed it.

“Well! Previously, because there were no materials, I could only use bamboo to make do. Tomorrow morning, I will draw the detailed design drawings of the glider. Please invite Dong Yue’s best craftsmen to the palace and work all night to complete the glider.” Su Qingying smiled gracefully, her teary eyes shining like stars. Because she had just cried, they now reflected a crystal-like brilliance, and as her eyes flickered, they were dazzlingly beautiful, breathtaking in their loveliness.

I really don't want to pour cold water on her, Zhao Tianyu opened his mouth and hesitated: "But after all, this is not the 21st century. Can they build what you draw"

"So you're still here. Well, let's try to keep things simple, okay Even if we have to force it!" Su Qingying tilted her head and gave him a sideways glance. Her obsidian eyes seemed to be dancing with a flicker of fire.

……

Su Qingying had always been a decisive person. The very next morning, she grabbed Zhao Tianyu and worked together to study the design drawings.

Zhao Tianyu, like her, had once come from the technologically brilliant 21st century. Both were extremely talented geniuses in the field of mechanics. Working together, they completed the initial design drawings for the glider in just two days.

On the floor of the Chaoyang Palace, countless parts design drawings were scattered. When Su Ziyue and Shangguan Jinghong arrived, they saw this scene.

Two people sat amidst a pile of scattered drawings, each with two large panda eyes on their faces. They occasionally picked up some drawings to discuss, nodding and frowning at times, creating quite a lively scene.

Shangguan Jinghong shook her jade bone fan and casually picked up a few drawings from the ground. After scrutinizing them for a long time, even though there were many annotations on the edges of the drawings, Shangguan Jinghong still looked dumbfounded. "What are these drawings This palace has been looking at them for ages, but I still can't figure it out. Could someone please explain"

For the first time, he felt his intelligence was not enough.

"Yinger, don't push yourself too hard. Look at you, you even have dark circles under your eyes. Have something to eat first," Su Ziyix brought over some of her favorite dishes, carefully avoiding the blueprints, and walked to her side.

"...... engrossed in their work, the two of them seemed not to see him at all, automatically blocking out his voice as if he were air. "

Zhao Tianyu sat cross-legged, his eyes skimming over several blueprints. A wolf figurine spun continuously on his finger, and he rubbed his weary brow in frustration. "The design is quite ingenious, I'll give you that. Although we've simplified it as much as possible, for this technologically backward era, it's simply too difficult to realize. To build it...I doubt it's even feasible."

On the side, Su Qingying suddenly had a flash of inspiration. She took a few drawings and brought them over, pointing at the drawings and saying seriously: "Tianyu, look at these parts. I think we can do it like this..."

"Well, maybe that could work..."

“......”

"This palace has never seen this young lady so focused. Forget it, let's not disturb them. Let's just put the food here; they'll eat when they're hungry." The two people who were ignored as if they were air silently placed the meal down and then silently left. From beginning to end, neither Su Qingying nor the other person raised their heads.

After countless rounds of arguments and discussions, Su Qingying and Zhao Tianyu finally finalized the glider design drawings before sunset. Not only was it simplified to the bare minimum that a skilled craftsman could manufacture, but they also maximized its performance as much as possible.

With the design drawings finalized, Su Qingying immediately gathered all the most skilled craftsmen in Dongyue, supervising the entire construction process and completing it within three days.

In the vast imperial martial arts arena, a small and exquisite glider stood quietly. After resting for a night, Su Qingying couldn't wait to run out.

Looking at the results of days and nights of hard work, Su Qingying was so happy that her eyes narrowed, a sense of pride welled up in her heart, “Finally, it’s done!”

"Ying'er, you designed this thing" Su Ziyi frowned. He couldn't see how it could possibly fly and couldn't help but worry, "Can this really fly"

“You’ll know if we can fly or not. By the way, where’s Al-li Haven’t heard from him these past few days” She had been so consumed with her work that she almost forgot about Jun Liye. Now that she had a moment to relax, a wave of anxiety washed over her.

Given his temperament and abilities, it's unreasonable for him to be delayed this long. Even if something prevented him from returning on time, he should have sent a message.

Could he really be in trouble

Upon hearing this, the smile that had been constantly gracing Shangguan Jinghong's lips gradually disappeared, replaced by deep worry. Her tone suddenly took on a hint of coldness, "These past few days, I have sent all my personal guards to scour every corner of Kyoto, but there hasn't been a single lead. It's as if he vanished into thin air. With Ye Shi's cunning nature, there's an eighty to ninety percent chance something has happened."

"Yufeng, what about you" A few days ago, she contacted Yufeng and asked Luoyue Palace to help find Jun Liye's whereabouts.

"Palace Master, we don't have any news here either." Seeing her so concerned about Jun Liye, Yu Feng twitched the corner of his mouth, then immediately settled his eyebrows, a hint of bitterness in his heart.

It seems he truly has no chance at all. Of course, he's already tainted. With her personality that can't tolerate even a speck of dust, how could she ever love him

After all, it's just wishful thinking.

"What happened to Ari" A sense of unease, like a tidal wave, surged within Su Qingying. Her heart pounded in her chest.

After much deliberation, she gently closed her eyes. When she opened them again, her eyes were clear and resolute. She gritted her teeth and said, "Father's poison is pressing, we can't delay any longer. Yu Feng, your Luoyue Palace has influence all over the place. I entrust you to continue searching for it. Notify me immediately if there's any news."

"Yes, Master." Guifeng stiffly nodded, suppressing the bitterness in her heart.prove her personal cultivation, some cannon fodder would come along and try to show off their existenceRaising an eyebrow, Su Qingying stood silently in the middle, neither moving nor speaking. A cold...
