Chapter 156
Chapter 156
Everyone’s eyes were fixed on this branch. Even the people of Qinghe Village felt that Xuan Yi seemed a little arrogant, a child holding a branch against an adult holding a sharp sword?
“Are you joking?”
The City Lord’s daughter frowned as she stared at Xuan Yi.
Using a random branch to defeat her?
The person in front of her looked so handsome dressed in a white robe, but what was wrong with his head?
Not to mention that the sword could break the branch with a single swing.
“I never joke about such things.”
Xuan Yi stood tall, his arms folded.
“I, Xia Ziwei, a middle-stage Awakened, have never slacked when it comes to the sword!”
Xia Ziwei looked at Xuan Yi with a complicated expression and wanted to refuse, but seeing the eager Lu Yao, she changed her mind.
If she couldn’t show these little guys the truth today, she was afraid that they would still practice this kind of misleading swordsmanship, and that would hamper their foundations in the future.
It didn’t matter, she would knock some sense into them first, and then she would present them with a book of swordsmanship afterward so that they could understand what real swordsmanship was!
Clang!
Xia Ziwei drew her sword, thought about it for a moment, and placed it back into the sheath.
She straightened her expression and looked at Lu Yao confidently, her eyes narrowing.
She was serious about swordsmanship, no matter who her opponent was!
“Come!”
Swipe!
Lu Yao directly held the branch and attacked with a swiping motion.
Looking at Lu Yao’s posture, Xia Ziwei wanted to laugh. Although the sword strike did not deliberately pursue speed, the faster sword would naturally strike others faster.
As everyone knew, the only way to reach the opponent in the fastest time was to strike in a straight line!
But the kid on the opposite side was obviously taught incorrectly by this Xuan Yi, he actually drew an arc as he attacked.
Xia Ziwei shook her head and casually raised the sword in her hand, attempting to block it.
Snap!
However, before she could lift her hand, Lu Yao’s branch had already been swept to her wrist. If it weren’t for her cultivation being on a higher level, she would never have been able to retract her hand in time and she would be hit.
“How?”
Xia Ziwei’s eyes widened in shock.
If her opponent was of the same cultivation base as her and was holding the same sword and had attacked with the same move.
She was afraid that she might have even lost one of her hands.
Why?
“Sister, be serious, I am also an Awakened!”
Lu Yao’s gaze was piercing, he was able to defeat her opponent with a branch. He had now seemed to have gained more confidence, especially under the special care of Xuan Yi. Although he was not talented, with the help of Spirit Pills, he had already reached the Qi Gathering Realm, corresponding to the early stage of the Awakening Realm!
Hum!
Although minute, in Xia Ziwei’s opinion, the tree branch was clad in an extremely pure aura by Lu Yao.
This child was actually in the early stage of the Awakening Realm…
Xia Ziwei’s eyes squinted, she placed her hand on the hilt of her sword, and slowly drew it out of its sheath. After almost getting hit, she didn’t dare to be careless anymore.
With her sword out of its sheath the sharp edges converged in one point, the wind howled, as she stabbed out fiercely.
This time, she took the initiative to attack.
However, after the sword was thrust out, Xia Ziwei held her breath, her pupils dilating.
An incomprehensible scene was visible again. Lu Yao slowly picked up his ‘sword’, using a stance that seemed extremely weird to her, as if it was slow and yet fast at the same time, as he moved it to the top, blocking her sword.
Clang!
Xia Ziwei’s heart trembled slightly. Before she could react, Lu Yao was already close to her body, slashing the branch from bottom to top, swiftly like a bolt of lightning, and pointed directly at her throat.
Ha!
With a soft sound, Xia Ziwei let go and the sword fell to the ground.
From beginning to end, her sword wasn’t even able to touch Lu Yao’s branch. Her proud swordsmanship was like a broken net in front of Lu Yao, filled with loopholes.
The five guards were shocked. Their lady was at the mid-stage of the Awakening Realm, but she couldn’t beat a child?
“Why? You clearly have no technique…”
Xia Ziwei took two steps backward, her eyes were filled with shock, she turned her head and looked at Xuan Yi, her pretty face drenched with puzzlement.
She was also a genius at her age. In the city of Surabaya, she could crush others in the same Realm. As such, in such a remote village, how could she be defeated by a child using a branch?
Mid-Awakening stage adult, holding a sharp sword, couldn’t even beat an early-Awakening stage child who was holding a branch?
Xia Ziwei’s face turned pale, somewhat unaccepting of the outcome!
In front of Lu Yao’s swordsmanship, she felt that the swordsmanship she had studied hard for decades seemed vulnerable!
Xuan Yi smiled slightly and shook his head.
The sword techniques he taught were the techniques that had been refined over thousands of years in the Southern Continent, and the sword moves that had been streamlined over tens of thousands of years, how could they be so ordinary?.
And as Lu Yao was the younger brother of Lu Yaoyao, Xuan Yi had deliberately taught him a little more, how could the sword skill of Antelope Sword Art be resisted by those thick and shallow sword moves that just went straight back and forth!
“Don’t understand the sword?”
Xuan Yi smiled, touched the head of Lu Yao who was excited and turned away, leaving everyone present in shock…
Xia Ziwei seemed even more desperate as she followed the people of the Qinghe Village step by step into a cleaned-up room.
One night passed, Xia Ziwei was barely able to restrain her mind.
She didn’t do anything on this day, just sat aside, staring at the little guys in Qinghe Village without blinking.
They practiced the sword, and she stared at them.
Anyway, for someone who had practiced swordsmanship for more than ten years, staring at it for a long time she could also comprehend the meaning behind one of the moves, and this comprehension immediately earned her respect!
Standing behind them, a flushed Xia Ziwei blushed, holding a wooden stick in her hand, as she couldn’t help but follow the little guys to practice. The more she practiced, the more shocked she felt.
Although she didn’t want to admit it, the swordsmanship taught by Xuan Yi was obviously better than the swordsmanship she had learned in the past.
Even the teacher who taught her swordsmanship was nowhere near as good as Xuan Yi’s sword style!
There was such a peerless character in a small village!
She practiced this time for one whole day. After the practice, although she still had a lot of unclear points, she never dared to proclaim that Xuan Yi didn’t understand the sword anymore.
Xuan Yi’s attainments in the sword were as impressive as a mountain.
The one who really didn’t understand swords was clearly herself!
Crunch!
Xia Ziwei had been practicing the sword technique for a day. Now she was aching and hungry. At this moment, there was a fragrance that she had never smelled before, accompanied by the fragrance, and there was also a rattling sound.
Xia Ziwei turned around, but she saw Lu Yaoyao staring at her with her big black eyes for a long time.
Xia Ziwei blushed, wanted to speak but then she glanced at Lu Yaoyao and suddenly stopped.
This little girl was holding something which seemed like jelly beans, wait, wasn’t that a pill?
The more Xia Ziwei looked at it, the more it resembled one. The fragrance kept wafting between her nose as a refreshing aura escaped from Lu Yao’s hands.
This was a genuine pill!
There might even not necessarily be a few of these precious pills in the whole city of Surabaya!
Lu Yaoyao didn’t understand why she was looking at her, so she raised his hand and stuffed a pill in her mouth.
Crack!
“Hiss!”
Xia Ziwei was shocked.
She took a deep breath and asked in disbelief, “You eat pills like jelly beans?”
The precious and incomparable pill was stuffed into her mouth at will, like a jelly bean.
Peerless swordsmanship, precious medicine…
What kind of unique village was this?
