Goddess Summoning System

Chapter 326 Baiyan River.

……

"Patriarch, Miss Bai Ling is back." The old housekeeper of Xue Tan Shuang Huan cupped his hands towards Bai Yanhe who was writing behind the desk.

"What did you say?" The brush in Bai Yanhe's hand froze, and the thick ink bloomed a dark flower on the paper, and the faint fragrance of ink wafted in the air.

"Patriarch, Miss Bai Ling has returned and is waiting outside the door." The stooped old butler immediately replied.

Bai Yanhe looked back at the white paper, picked up the pen and continued writing. At the same time, he ordered the old housekeeper, "Let her come in."

"Yes." The old butler lowered his hand to express his understanding, then opened two antique wooden doors and said to the girl outside, "Miss, please come in."

Then a young and beautiful figure stepped into the house on canvas shoes, and Bai Yanhe put the brush on a piece of jade at the right time, looked at the girl in front of him and said, "Sit down."

"No need." Bai Ling looked at Bai Yanhe who was wearing a royal blue suit and said.

"Do you still have resentment towards the family?" Bai Yanhe looked up at Bai Ling's expression.

Bai Ling nodded calmly upon hearing this.

"It's okay to have resentment, after all, at that time no one could resist the decision of the elders." Bai Yanhe said softly, "Including my elder brother, who is your father."

"But it's different now." Bai Yanhe suddenly raised his voice and said, "As long as you want to go back to the Bai family, you can do it anytime, and there will be no objection."

But Bai Ling shook her head slightly and refused, "I won't come back again."

"It's because of the outside world." Bai Yanhe said with a faint smile, "The outside world is indeed very exciting, enough to make people forget to return."

Bai Ling remained silent, she was simply used to a certain life and didn't want to change it.

"Today is a bit special, why did you choose to come today?" Bai Yanhe asked.

"I heard that many people don't practice swords anymore. This is not the Bai family I know." Bai Ling replied.

"That's true." Bai Yanhe admitted, and then calmly said, "But it's not my fault, but their own reasons."

"I know they gave up on their own initiative, but I don't want the Bai family's knives to be mixed with other things."

"I didn't expect that after so many years, you still have the shadow of your father in your thoughts." Bai Yanhe looked at Bai Ling quietly and said.

"A knife has always been just a knife."

"You're wrong, a knife is never just a knife." Bai Yanhe stood up, not a single wrinkle visible in his flatly ironed suit.

Baiyanhe walked slowly to a map hanging on the wall, looked at the map and said calmly, "We belong to this world, and we are in contact with this world every moment. And this world is changing all the time , so we are slowly changing.”

"As we change the world, the world changes us."

Bai Ling pondered for a while and said, "But there are some things that require us to persevere."

"Persistence?" Bai Yanhe shook his head and smiled helplessly, "Is it just to persist in those wrong things?"

Bai Yanhe raised his eyes and pointed to an area the size of a fingernail on the map and said in a deep voice, "This is the ninth district of the imperial capital. It is only so small, but it accommodates four or five families the same as the Bai family, and one of them The two families could have been easily destroyed decades ago, but now they are standing side by side with the Bai family on the same land."

"It's ridiculous."

Bai Yanhe turned his head to look at Bailing who was on the side and said calmly, "Now, do you think it's still correct to insist on these things?"

Bai Ling was silent for a while, and then said, "The Bai family's sword once stood tall in the whole world."

"It is precisely because of this that we, immersed in the glory of the past, did not realize that we are being abandoned by this world step by step, and when we look back, we find that we are out of tune with this world, what we were once proud of is now It has become a joke that the world talks about.”

Bai Yanhe said lightly, "This is reality."

Bai Ling opened her mouth to refute, but was interrupted by Bai Yanhe waving her hand,
Bai Yanhe moved away the map hanging on the wall, and a hidden grid appeared before Bai Ling's eyes.

Hidden in the secret room is a knife, placed on a knife rest made of yellow pear wood.

The cold air of the mirror-like blade reflects Bai Yanhe's slightly vicissitudes of face, and the cold light that flows continuously flows on the high burning blade.

Bai Yanhe raised his hand and gently stroked the back of the knife, his eyes were gentle, as if he was comforting his own child.

With a light tap of the index finger, there was a clear buzzing sound from the blade, and the blade was loud and clear.

Bai Yanhe held the gilt-edged knife handle, and took the whole knife off the knife holder.

"Wanxiang?!" Bai Ling looked at the knife in Bai Yanhe's hand and was stunned.

"I didn't expect you to remember the name of this knife." Bai Yanhe smiled faintly at Bailing, and then said, "Everything is inclusive, everything can be listed."

Bai Ling said softly, "The reason why it is called Vientiane is because those who died under this knife have seen the most beautiful sight in their lifetime."

"You're right," Bai Yanhe nodded slightly, and then put the knife back on the knife holder, "It's a pity that even if it is as perfect as it is, it will be abandoned by the times in the end."

"I haven't used it since I returned to Bai's house. It's been four years."

Listening to Bai Yanhe's emotion, Bai Ling couldn't help but asked, "Do you really want it to be covered in dust?"

"It's just time to rest, and according to us, it's the end of its life."

Bai Ling frowned slightly, expressing her dissatisfaction, "The Bai family's saber can only be returned when it is broken."

Bai Yanhe said unhurriedly, "Are you willing to let them be broken?"

"You use them as decorations, so what's the difference between death to them?"

However, Bai Yanhe sat back at the desk again, took out a long box from the table and placed it in front of Bailing, lightly picked it with his index finger, and the lock of the long box opened with a sound, and there was another "Vientiane" handle lying quietly inside. ".

Looking at the girl's surprised gaze, Bai Yanhe said calmly, "In the past, the person changed, but the knife remained the same. Now it's the other way around, the person is still the same person, but the knife is no longer the same knife."

"This knife is imitated from 'Vientiane', just to choose a material that can hold magic power." Bai Yanhe explained to Bai Ling.

Bai Ling looked up at Bai Yanhe and said, "Not only the sword has changed, but the person has also changed."

"I want to participate in the family competition."

"Why are you wading in this muddy water?" Bai Yanhe asked.

Bai Ling said calmly, "No matter what you think, what I want to prove is-"

"The sword of the Bai family has never been surpassed before."

"It's the same now."
