Chapter 20: An Old-Fashioned But Useful Approach
Chapter 20: An Old-Fashioned But Useful Approach
What's the hurry at this late hour?
Zhang Yunlu withdrew her gaze and looked at the red jade in her hand. Her spiritual power had been fully restored at this time, but the warm current was endless, pouring in from the palm of her hand and flowing to her limbs and bones. She felt that the fatigue in her body was relieved a lot.
After moving the hand holding the sword, the soreness had completely subsided.
'Practice a few more times! ' she thought to herself.
There is also a red string in the jade box. After passing the red jade through it, it can be worn around the neck.
Soon, the long sword was in his hand again, and spiritual light covered the sword. Zhang Yunlu recalled the sword moves and swung the long sword in his hand.
Compared with the previous sword moves that were a bit awkward, this time they were extremely smooth and harmonious.
Strands of warm current flowed through the body, and the long sword in his hand was like a breeze blowing past, the clouds dissipated, and the sword body disappeared quietly, but suddenly appeared in the next moment.
Swish!
A flash of white light shot out and disappeared after it reached a distance of three feet.
This is the sword edge, it can cut stone into mirrors and penetrate three points of cold iron!
The first move of "Liuyun Sword Technique" is done!
It actually happened?
Even Zhang Yunlu herself was stunned. She was clearly so far away from it just now.
Biting her lip, she held the red jade on her chest. Even through her clothes, she could still feel its warmth.
"So, he deduced that he would get this red jade, and then concluded that he could master the "Liuyun Sword Technique" before the day after tomorrow?"
Does that also mean that he knows the origin of this red jade?
Zhang Yunlu was in a state of confusion and it took her a long time to calm down.
I'll ask after school tomorrow!
If she said she didn't care at all about the truth about her parents' death, she would be lying, and I believe her brother is the same.
And now there is an avenue of investigation, and you would be a fool not to catch him.
As for the risks…
Oh, if a great monk of that level were to plot against us, would my brother and I be able to resist?
I am only at the Qi training stage, and my brother is only at the Jindan stage!
Having made up his mind, Zhang Yunlu put away his sword, picked up the jade box and Huiyuan Lingye beside him, turned around, left the rooftop and returned home.
After washing up, she went straight into the bedroom.
She lit a soothing incense, and as the smoke rose, Zhang Yunlu lay down on the bed and closed her eyes, still holding the red jade tightly in her hand.
Soon she fell into a deep sleep, but she did not sleep until dawn.
In a strange grey space with unclear boundaries, Zhang Yunlu looked around in confusion.
Suddenly, a line of golden text appeared before my eyes.
[Okay, I admit that this may be a little old-fashioned, but with your aptitude and comprehension, if you want to master the Flowing Cloud Sword Technique before the day after tomorrow, this method is the most suitable.]
"???"
[Enemy: A swordsman at the ninth level of Qi training, with a minor mastery of the "Liuyun Sword Technique"]
【Goal: Kill! 】
What?
What the hell?
Am I dreaming now?
Without giving her a chance to react, the surrounding fog swirled and gathered into a long sword in her hand.
It feels cool to the touch, and the heavy weight proves that this is indeed the real thing!
and many more!
Could it be that he was not talking about the red jade, but this strange place?
A figure holding a sword walked out of the gray fog. He was dressed in black and his face could not be seen clearly. His spiritual power, which was at the ninth level of Qi training, was not concealed at all and was comparable to hers.
Gulu!
Do you really want to fight?
Without any delay, the shadow of the swordsman took a step forward, raised his sword, and appeared in front of her in an instant, and the sharp blade, shining with cold light, slashed towards her head.
His actions fully explained that this was not a fight, but a fight of blood!
Ding!
Zhang Yunlu swung his sword to block and quickly moved back, but the sword followed him like a shadow. He retreated several steps and his numb right hand finally recovered.
She fell backwards, and the sword in the sword cultivator's phantom's hand only cut off a few strands of her hair, but she continued to rush forward due to inertia.
Seizing the opportunity, Zhang Yunlu thrust his sword forward, and the situation instantly reversed, and he was about to pierce it.
But then the shadow of the sword cultivator drew out a short sword from his waist, and the sword was covered with a layer of spiritual light.
Ding!
He blocked the attack!
"This is cheating!" After shouting, she rolled to the side, quickly stood up and raised her hand to slash with a sword!
The sword disappeared for a moment and then quickly reappeared, and the terrifying sword light pierced straight into the lower back of the sword cultivator's phantom. However, the sword cultivator's phantom had already stabilized his body at this time, and he dodged the sword light by just turning sideways.
Then he returned her sword, and the sword body disappeared for a moment like a breeze and floating clouds.
Zhang Yunlu's heart was filled with alarm and he quickly bent backwards to avoid the oncoming sword light, but he felt a pain in his waist and abdomen. When he turned around, he saw a white light occupying his sight.
Minor success in "Liuyun Sword Technique", three sword beams!
At the critical moment, Zhang Yunlu raised his right hand, and then... gave him the middle finger. The next moment, his head burst like a watermelon, disintegrating into a ball of gray mist.
…………
"Very naughty."
Inside the villa, Xu Xing watched Zhang Yunlu's headless figure fall down, but her last action was quite interesting, as she did not lose the battle even though she lost the life.
"You have a good grasp of timing and on-the-spot judgment. You should follow my sword cultivation lineage."
"And he actually learned the Flowing Cloud Sword Technique. This is a bit surprising."
Zhang Yunlu's performance can be said to be outstanding.
He can make calm judgments in a sudden fight, and can quickly make up for it even if he is taken advantage of.
Today's era is much more peaceful than before, and there are fewer conflicts.
Therefore, practitioners like Zhang Yunlu who have good fighting talent are easily buried.
His physique is still a little lacking, otherwise, even in the Sword Sect, he would be an outstanding disciple who could become a disciple of Elder Fanxu.
"Well, since you have such talent, how about I help you achieve a natural foundation?"
Once her natural foundation is established, coupled with her excellent fighting talent, it may not be impossible for her to become a disciple of the four great elders in the future!
The next moment, the entire gray space seemed to have pressed the fast-forward button, and the picture became blurred.
Xu Xing turned around and looked outside.
"Sure enough, you are still worried. Have you come here?" Someone was approaching here cautiously, "But it's not wise to do so."
In the villa next door, someone was about to notice it, and a vast and powerful divine consciousness gradually spread out.
"Forget it. Since you want to see me so much, I'll help you."
Xu Xing raised his hand and gently pointed it in front of him.
hum~
Invisible ripples spread out, and just after he finished doing this, the vast divine consciousness had enveloped the entire community.
After taking a quick look around and finding nothing, he had to retract his divine sense.
…………
In the residential area, Zhang Xiu approached the target cautiously.
As he came closer, a faint force tried to distort his senses.
This is the formation.
Zhang Xiu had done some research before coming here, and found out that even a practitioner in the Qi training stage could not withstand a formation of this level, let alone him.
Soon, he came to the wall and made a spell.
Wall-walking.
Then he walked straight towards the wall. The wall with forbidden properties seemed like a decoration and he passed through it easily.
When we got inside, it looked dark and a bit eerie because the lights were off.
'Go on, there is no time to lose.'
In order to save time, he passed through several walls and arrived at the living room.
The living room was empty, but the moonlight shining in made the place much brighter.
"Breaking into someone's house should be against the law, but I still want to say something."
The sudden sound that reached his ears made Zhang Xiu's scalp tingle. A young-looking man suddenly appeared on the sofa which was originally empty, and looked at him with a smile.
"good evening."
