Ms. Diviner: The Prodigal Daughter's Return

Chapter 1141: Chapter 1141: The Funniest Joke in the World

Due to years of neglect, the array had no barrier concealment, and the array base stones around were clearly visible.

”What are you doing? I have warned you, this array is extremely dangerous, idle people must not approach lightly, or they risk losing their lives. Don’t blame me then,” Tian Wenliang sternly warned.

”Hmph, if you can’t save anyone, does that mean we can’t try ourselves?” Han Yan snorted coldly and said.

”Save someone? You actually want to save someone yourself!” Tian Wenliang looked as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world, his face full of disdainful laughter.

”Precisely, since you lack the capability, we can only rely on ourselves.” Han Yan looked at Tian Wenliang contemptuously and said.

”Han Yan, don’t think that just because you saw through Qiu Ping’an’s cunning scheme, have some eye power, forged the Blood Gall Sword, and have some talent, you can be arrogant in front of me, Tian Wenliang. You think you can break the Heavenly Sword Seven Killings Array? Do you really believe that tens of thousands of years ago, those strongmen of Western Qin Country were all of no renown?” Tian Wenliang, provoked by Han Yan’s contemptuous gaze, scolded.

Upon hearing Qiu Ping’an’s name, Han Yan realized why Tian Wenliang held such great hostility towards him - wasn’t it because he hadn’t exposed Qiu Ping’an earlier, causing him to lose face while arguing with Yu’s mentor? He lacked eye power and capability, yet still hated Han Yan for it.

Understanding the reason, Han Yan was more suspicious that Jiang Yuzhe being trapped in the Heavenly Sword Seven Killings Array was Tian Wenliang’s doing.

Obviously, now was not the time to confirm this matter, the most urgent thing was to rescue Jiang Yuzhe first. With Han Yan’s strong Six Senses, he had vaguely sensed that the array is filled with fierce Sword Intent, though not possessing the power of a deadly strike, Jiang Yuzhe’s ability is likely insufficient to cope.

”I don’t know if they’re of no renown, but I must save Jiang Yuzhe.” After Han Yan finished speaking, he swiftly approached the exposed array base to study it.

Array Formation Barrier Technique actually has many similarities with the Sealing and Breaking Sealing Technique, considered somewhat of a single heritage. But compared, Sealing and Breaking Sealing merely require personal strength and comprehension of the techniques, having a much smaller scope, whereas Array Formation requires various array materials, demanding less from personal strength but is far more complex, with a larger array scope.

Han Yan had somewhat understood the Sealing and Breaking Sealing Technique on his way to Flying Peak, already having some array foundation, as he inspected the array base meticulously, he observed some patterns.

However, this array was exceedingly complicated, merely the runes etched on the array base were countless, with the materials constructing the base being varied in thousands.

The power of the Heavenly Sword Seven Killings Array stemmed partly from the combination of the array runes, though the different properties of the thousands of array materials, their mutual compatibility, were an important reason.

No wonder generations of Array Masters at Long Yan Academy failed to repair the Heavenly Sword Seven Killings Array; the complexity of the array far exceeded Han Yan’s imagination, and how could she possibly find a way to break the array in just a moment?

Within the array, the Sword Intent became sharper and more murderous, even Huayue and others felt it, their faces changing simultaneously.

Han Yan’s forehead also seeped a fine sweat. With the current array’s power, Jiang Yuzhe should already find it extremely difficult to cope; if delayed further, there is a great risk to his life.

”Hmph, still thinking of rescuing people, lack the sense!” Seeing the sweat on Han Yan’s forehead, and Huayue and others’ faces full of seriousness, their eyes betray the worry, Tian Liangguang was secretly pleased and mocked. Then with a sweep of his robe sleeves, he walked far to the side, too lazy to spare Han Yan another glance.

”Yes, with so many array predecessors unable to solve the profound meaning of the array, how can he manage? Bragging without fearing the tongue being struck by the wind.”

”Did he really think that just because he forged the Blood Gall Sword, it’s remarkable? He’s nothing more than a petty fool.” Few academy disciples echoed in cold mockery.

These few were the Qiu Family’s disciples who had once colluded with Qiu Ping’an to frame Han Yan during the enrollment selection, among which were Qiu Pingcheng and Qiu Pinghe, one generation younger than Qiu Zizhong.

Han Yan coldly glanced at those few, then quickly withdrew her gaze, worrying about Jiang Yuzhe’s safety; she had no time to bother with them. To talk about petty fools, they were the real ones.

”Master, can you think of a way to open the array?” Feeling that the Sword Intent within the array grew sharper, and the killing intention stronger, Huayue asked worriedly.

Han Yan shook her head, facing such complex deep insight of the array, she truly was helpless.

”What should we do then? How about inviting other Array Masters to help?” Tang Bufan tentatively suggested. Long Yan Academy is profoundly founded, obviously not only having Tian Wenliang as an Array Master.

”Do you think they’ll help? Even if willing to help, it’s likely too late.” Zirong shook her head, denying the suggestion.

Tang Bufan sighed, said no more.

With the academy’s mentors holding prejudice against Han Yan, if she came forward to invite help, others might not be willing; even accounting for the mentor’s prestige, including Gong Hongru’s face, willing to help, they might not exert themselves fully. Even an upright and wholehearted effort wouldn’t be timely.

For the moment, everyone was silently dejected.

”If you just want to enter the array, I do have a way.” At this moment, Ling Baobao suddenly said.

”What did you say?” Han Yan and others were joyfully looking at him.

”I said, I can help you enter the array.” Ling Baobao repeated once.

”Why didn’t you say so earlier?” Han Yan complained.

Ling Baobao indeed carried much strangeness, so Han Yan did not doubt his words; just everyone was urgent, him being slow naturally seemed to deliberately provoke anxiety.

”Because I can only let you in, unable to let you out.” Ling Baobao spread his hands, helplessly said.

Everyone understood his meaning, this Sky Sword Seven Absolute Formation is extremely dangerous; if one can only enter and not exit, wouldn’t it mean Han Yan, along with Jiang Yuzhe, would be trapped inside. Ling Baobao didn’t speak earlier, fearing Han Yan taking risks; so only spoke when there was no other choice.

Knowing he was worried for Han Yan’s safety, Huayue and others didn’t blame him.

”Let’s not think too much, let me enter the array first.” Han Yan said without hesitation.

If delayed further, the array’s power strengthens, Jiang Yuzhe surely fails to resist; her strength at least exceeds his by far, and with the protection of Cangxuan Cloud Silk, it’s better than him trapped alone.

”Let me go instead,” Zirong too didn’t want Han Yan to take risks, stepped forward suggesting.
