Chapter 359 Disappointment

Chapter 359 Disappointment
Various ceremonial guards led the way.

On both sides were guarded by the Zhenwu Division and the City Patrol Guards, preventing the crowds of onlookers from getting closer.

Chu Zhiyuan and Cheng Miaozhen walked side by side.

Gao Lingfeng and his group walked in the back row with Gao Jiuqu and the two grand masters.

Others followed along.

Both sides of the avenue were bustling with activity. Among the crowd of onlookers there were many masters from the Zhenwu Division, with eyes as sharp as hawks, ready to strike at any time.

Chu Zhiyuan and Cheng Miaozhen hardly spoke to each other.

Chu Zhiyuan sensed her coldness and alienation, and knew that she was unwilling to come on this trip. She must have been forced to do so.

He felt quite sympathetic and empathized with the other party, so he didn't go forward to avoid making things awkward for either of them.

It's best to keep this cold and distant.

The two came to the Dazhen Hall in the Sifang Hall, and Chu Zhiyuan said goodbye and left.

As soon as he walked out of the Dazhen Embassy, Gao Jiuqu's voice came from behind: "Lord Zuo Shilang, please stay."

Chu Zhiyuan turned around and looked at Gao Jiuqu with a smile.

Gao Jiuqu stepped forward and clasped his fists: "I am Wen Tianya Gao Jiuqu. I heard that Lord Zuo Shilang is the first prince of Dajing. I would like to ask the prince for some advice."

Chu Zhiyuan looked at Gao Jiuqu with a smile: "Mr. Gao is a disciple of Wen Tianya, right?"

"Exactly."

"Are you here because of Brother Cheng?" Chu Zhiyuan said with a smile, "Brother Cheng said at the beginning that a senior brother from Wen Tianya would help him get back on his feet."

Gao Jiuqu clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Junior Brother Cheng is young and full of energy, and he takes winning and losing too seriously."

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Mr. Gao doesn't take it seriously?"

Gao Jiu said: "If it doesn't involve life and death, victory or defeat is not that important. Finding the weakness of your own martial arts through victory or defeat is the most important thing."

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Mr. Gao, you have reached the level of a perfect Grandmaster, right? I am only at the eighth level of Grandmaster, and I am still two levels short. If you fight me, I am afraid you will not gain anything."

"I know that the prince's flying knife is amazing. Is it the Heart-searching Sword Technique of our sect?"

"The Heart-Searching Sword Technique?" Chu Zhiyuan smiled.

Two white lights suddenly flew out from his sleeves, turned a corner and arrived above his head, stopping one foot above his head and floating quietly.

Gao Jiuqiu is gentle and refined, but his Dharma appearance is that of a fierce tiger.

The tiger sat one meter above his head, sitting majestically, with the aura of the king of beasts.

Chu Zhiyuan knew that his gentleness and elegance were just outward appearance, a temperament cultivated by his acquired environment.

His true nature is fierce, domineering and arrogant.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Is this the Heart-Searching Sword Technique?"

Gao Jiuqiu looked at the two flying knives in amazement and felt the biting cold air coming from them.

Although there was a distance of five meters between them, the tip of the flying knife seemed to be touching his forehead.

The cold air penetrated into my bones, my whole body tensed up and my breathing became rapid.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Didn't Brother Cheng tell you, Mr. Gao, that there is no sense of accomplishment in sparring with me? Often, I only use one move, and I either lose or win. It is useless."

After he said that, the flying knife suddenly turned into three white lights and shot towards Gao Jiuqiu.

Gao Jiuqu hurriedly drew his sword and rushed forward.

The three flying knives suddenly turned in the air, nimbly avoiding the sword light, finding a gap to penetrate, and hitting Gao Jiuqu's eyebrows and body.

One is placed between the eyebrows, one is placed between the heart, and one is placed between the dantian.

These three locations are all critical.

The lowest one can destroy his cultivation, the middle one can harm his life, and the top one can kill him instantly, with no cure.

Gao Jiuqiu stopped moving, and his sword stopped in mid-air, with a hazy glow covering the sword.

The sword energy is even and dense, showing the depth and sophistication of his cultivation and his solid foundation.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and asked, "How is it?"

The three flying knives suddenly flew back to his head and hovered in the air like three flying birds overlooking Gao Jiuqiu.

Gao Jiuqu's face was stiff, and he barely managed to pull the corner of his mouth: "What a powerful flying knife!"

“Is this the Heart-Searching Sword Technique?” Chu Zhiyuan asked with a smile.

Gao Jiuqu shook his head.

The Heart-Searching Sword Technique is a flying knife, a hidden weapon, but Chu Zhiyuan's flying knife has transcended the category of flying knives.

Similar to the legendary imperial sword.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "This is the sword control technique. Mr. Gao, I will take my leave first."

Gao Jiuqu was silent for a moment, then said, "It is said that the prince's swordsmanship is also unique."

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "My swordsmanship...is indeed pretty good. Do you want to compete in swordsmanship again?"

"It would be great if you could learn from me." Gao Jiuqiu said hurriedly.

Chu Zhiyuan said, "I have something else to do today, so I can't delay any longer. Let's learn from each other another day." "...Okay." Gao Jiuqu couldn't force him, so he clasped his fists and said, "Then I'll learn from you another day, Your Excellency."

Chu Zhiyuan clasped his fists, smiled and turned to leave.

He found it dull.

Gao Jiuqiu was a martial arts genius who knew the true teachings of Wen Tianya. With the same perfection of a grandmaster, his attainments were naturally far superior to those of grandmasters from other sects.

If he is so vulnerable, other masters may be even more vulnerable.

For myself, the real challenge is the grandmaster, not the master anymore.

For a moment, I felt quite lonely. I originally thought that Gao Jiuqiu could give me some surprises.

Unfortunately, it is still vulnerable.

Then let's see his swordsmanship.

The sword techniques passed down in my mind from the Baiyun Sword Monument have now been almost sorted out.

The vast and vast library of sword techniques is finally being sorted and categorized.

It's not easy.

If I hadn't merged with the Miaoling Pearl, which allowed me to disperse my thoughts into countless ones, and hadn't used the Tianyuan Jue to replenish my mental strength at all times, it would have taken me half my lifetime to compile all these sword techniques.

Too complex, too vast.

It can be regarded as a complete collection of sword techniques from ancient times to the present.

He felt that it was not just the sword techniques of this world, but the sword techniques of many worlds were included in it.

Each world has its own martial arts style, movement habits, and even thinking habits.

This resulted in some sword techniques being strange and bizarre, contrary to common sense.

It's not that the sword technique is wrong, but the way of activation and the opponent are different.

If Gao Jiuqu really practiced the Questioning Heaven Secret Technique, his swordsmanship should be different.

Maybe you can give yourself a surprise.

Thinking of this, he suddenly laughed.

Compare the situation of his fight with Cheng Tianfeng in the past, and then look at the current situation of his fight with Gao Jiuqiu.

My state of mind has undergone a drastic change.

In the past, I was walking on thin ice, fearing that I would fail and be embarrassed because of my lack of cultivation.

But now I am looking down from a high place, trying to find a little excitement.

He then reminded himself not to be proud, to remain humble, to see the strengths of others, and to constantly improve himself.

I am not a grandmaster yet, and I am still a long way from achieving immortality.

He returned to the palace, sat on the bed in Tingtao Courtyard and began to practice the Liuli Knife Sutra.

The aura around him suddenly changed, like a divine sword unsheathed, ready to cut through the sky.

The strong sword intent forced Zou Fang to retreat out of the house. If he stayed inside, he would only feel a stabbing pain in his head and he was about to faint.

Chu Zhiyuan's sword intent became stronger and stronger, and when two flying birds passed by in the sky, they suddenly fell straight down.

A figure flew up in the air and lightly picked up the two birds. It was a young guard from Tingtao Court.

He looked down at the two flying birds in his hands. They were already dead, and there were no scars on their bodies.

He looked towards Chu Zhiyuan's room in surprise, and felt the sharp sword intent, as if a knife was stabbing at his forehead. He quickly floated back and returned to his original position.

……

It was not until lunchtime that Chu Zhiyuan stopped his practice in the Spiritual Transformation Realm.

Chu Yi came over curiously and asked, "Brother, is the Eighteenth Princess really that beautiful?"

Li Suyue also looked over curiously.

Chu Zhiyuan nodded: "She is indeed quite pretty."

"How is it compared to Sister Xiao?"

"Just half a pound."

"It's so beautiful?!" Chu Yi was surprised.

Bai Ningshuang also looked over, opened her mouth and then closed it.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "Mom, what can't be said?"

"Do you know why this eighteenth princess came here?"

"I don't know."
