　　“Yeah.”
　　Jiang Zhi nodded with a smile.
　　Naturally, she wouldn’t take Xu Taiping’s comforting words seriously.
If it were an ordinary imperial object flight, it would be okay. Changing a magic weapon could also be done. But the weight bears when suspending the iron and engraving the words are too great. Only by the natal magic weapon or the spirit sword can it be done. And as far as she knows. Xu Taiping has not refined his own natal magic weapon. So if he doesn’t use a sword, three hundred catties of suspended iron is his limit, and this kind of weight can never defeat the several people of the First Peak.
　　“If he doesn’t use the sword, the pain of the soul’s wail that he has to endure will double.”
　　This was the warning that Fairy Lingyue had just given to Xu Taiping.
　　But if it really came to that critical moment, there would be no choice for Xu Taiping either.
　　In any case, in this round, he must win.
　　Because he had already made an agreement with his second senior brother that he would win the first place for the Seventh Peak, and the second senior brother would ask the sect leader for the sword.
　　“Xu Taiping.”
　　Just as Xu Taiping was secretly making up his mind, a familiar voice came into his mind.
　　“Buyu？”
　　He tentatively transmitted his soul’s voice and asked.
　　“It’s me.”
　　The voice sounded again.
　　This time, Xu Taiping could already be completely sure that it was Lin Buyu.
　　The reason why only her voice could be heard but not her person seen was presumably due to the effect of her magic robe.
“I just used the wind-listening technique to eavesdrop on the conversation between Jin Hezhi of the First Peak and his junior brother Huang Qi, and found something is not right.
　　Upon hearing this, Xu Taiping’s heart tightened, and he immediately transmitted his voice and asked：
What’s wrong?
　　“That Jin Hezhi asked Huang Qi to suspend 1,800 catties of iron, but as far as my senior sister knows, the weight that Huang Qi can currently suspend when controlling objects should be around 1,200 catties. He shouldn’t have improved so much in a short time.”
　　Lin Buyu’s voice sounded again in Xu Taiping’s mind.
　　At the same time, Xu Taiping also felt that a person sat down on the empty seat beside him.
　　“One thousand eight hundred catties…”
　　But what Xu Taiping cared most about was the number one thousand eight hundred catties.
　　“During the conversation between the two, they also repeatedly mentioned that there was a treasure that could delay the onset of the Soul Weeping Syndrome for them.”
　　Lin Buyu then said again.
　　“There is such a treasure？”
　　Xu Taiping was slightly moved.
　　If the Soul Weeping Syndrome could be suppressed, even a sword cultivator who had just started practicing for a short time could at least reach a thousand catties in the weight of the flying sword hanging iron. For a sword cultivator like Huang Qi, not to mention one thousand eight hundred catties, even three thousand six hundred catties was possible.
　　If that was really the case, then how could they compete？
　　“Judging from the conversation of the two, using this thing is not without cost, but specifically why, they are very cautious and didn’t mention anything. If you want to know, perhaps you can use the bracelet to listen to their hearts.”
　　The voice of Lin Buyu rang out again.
　　Upon hearing this, Xu Taiping’s eyes lit up immediately, and he immediately thanked Lin Buyu and said：
　　“Thank you, Junior Sister Buyu.”
　　The bracelet obtained by the two from the Listening to the Wind Tower has a supernatural power called Heart-to-Heart Connection, which can hear the hearts of the people around.
　　“You’re welcome. Last time you saved Senior Sister, this time I’ll return you a favor.”
　　Lin Buyu said in a very calm tone.
　　At the same time she said this, Xu Taiping clearly felt a hand grab his hand.
　　“What are you stunned for？ Hold my hand.”
　　Xu Taiping, who didn’t react immediately, was said by Lin Buyu.
　　“Okay.”
　　Xu Taiping quickly held Lin Buyu’s hand.
　　Compared to seven years ago, Xu Taiping’s hand was much bigger and rougher. In contrast, Lin Buyu’s hand had not changed at all. It was slender, soft, and boneless, so much so that Xu Taiping didn’t dare to hold it too tightly.
As if sensing something, Lin Buyu exerted a little force with her small hand, tightly clasping Xu Taiping’s hand with her five fingers, and then transmitted a voice:
　　“If you don’t hold it tighter, this telepathy won’t work.”
　　“Hmm.”
　　Xu Taiping nodded seriously.
　　Since the girl didn’t mind, why should he be so hesitant？
　　Immediately, he also firmly held Lin Buyu’s hand, and his big hand almost completely wrapped Lin Buyu’s small hand in his palm.
　　“Dong,　dong,　dong…”
　　Just as the two intertwined their fingers, they suddenly heard each other’s “dong dong” heartbeat.
　　However, Xu Taiping found that Lin Buyu’s heartbeat at this moment seemed a little rapid, so he asked worriedly：
“Junior Sister Buyu, are you not feeling well?”
　　“No！”
　　Lin Buyu denied it outright, and at the same time changed the topic and said：
　　“The competition is about to start soon. Quickly listen to the thoughts of those disciples from Yifeng and see if we can find some flaws.”
　　Upon hearing this, Xu Taiping’s expression immediately became solemn again. He immediately turned his head and looked at the group of disciples from the First Peak opposite.
　　Just like the first time they used this telepathy supernatural power, as long as they focused their attention on someone, that person’s thoughts would be transmitted into their minds.
　　The two of them very tacitly locked onto Huang Qi.
　　Immediately, Huang Qi’s thoughts began to appear in their minds——
　　“One thousand eight hundred catties. Second senior brother, do you want me to die?”
“I don’t know where you got this Ecstasy Talisman. It can actually eliminate the Soul Weeping Syndrome, but what’s the use? It will still have an episode after an hour.
　　“Forget it, forget it. As long as I can get the Shangqing Yulei Technique, I might as well lie in bed for ten days and a half month.”
　　“Speaking of which, the few female disciples from Qifeng really have good looks.”
　　“When Qifeng completely collapses this time and all the disciples are taken over by our First Peak, I will definitely go and beg the Peak Master to choose one of those female disciples as my Taoist partner.”
　　“Hehe, coincidentally, when I went down the mountain to experience a few years ago, I obtained a dual cultivation technique of taking yin and nourishing yang.”
　　“However, which of these three female disciples should I choose？”
　　“Zhao Linglong？ Hmm… It seems that Second Senior Brother has always wanted this woman. Forget it, I’ll just choose one from Jiang Zhi and Wu Mo…”
　　“Jiang Zhi is indeed very beautiful, especially those long legs… But she is a bit too thin. Although Wu Mo looks petite, the places that should be thin are thin, and the places that should have flesh…”
　　Hearing this, Xu Taiping’s face had become so gloomy that it seemed as if water was about to drip from it.
