Martial Arts: After ten years of sword-drawing, the Sword God must bow his head when he sees me

Chapter 41 Nine-bearded Red Jade Ginseng

Looking at the system prompt message that popped up in front of him, Shen Ping'an's expression became a little strange.

Zhang Sanniang is fine, but Shen Pingan did say a lot about sword intent yesterday and even gave some methods to cultivate sword intent.

But it was not Shen Ping'an's original intention for Yao Yue to comprehend the sword intent today.

If there is any reason to count, it can only be attributed to Yao Yue's own good talent and luck.

Unexpectedly, because of this reason, Shen Pingan unexpectedly achieved an achievement.

After a quick look, Shen Ping'an also knew the function of this Sword Intent Pill.

Simply put, after using it, one can randomly comprehend a sword intent that suits him or her.

But it can only allow the user's sword intent to reach the first level, which is the entry level of sword intent.

For Shen Ping'an, it is something better than nothing.

After collecting his thoughts and putting away the jade token that Yao Yue had just given him, Shen Ping'an turned his head and looked at Zhang Sanniang beside him.

Noticing Zhang Sanniang's frown, Shen Pingan said softly, "It seems that Miss Zhang has a suitable opponent next."

Hearing Shen Ping'an's words, Zhang Sanniang was stunned for a moment, as if puzzled, but she quickly realized what Shen Ping'an meant.

"Rival?"

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Sanniang looked in the direction where Yao Yue left, and a smile appeared on her face again: "She is indeed a good opponent."

After sitting down in a pavilion with Shen Pingan, Zhang Sanniang took a few sips of tea. She looked at Shen Pingan and said softly, "I came here today to thank Mr. Shen for his guidance yesterday."

As she spoke, Zhang Sanniang reached into her bosom and pulled out a two-inch wooden box, placed it on the table, and gently pushed it forward in front of Shen Ping'an.

"I heard that Mr. Shen Er was buying a lot of medicine these days. It just so happens that Sanniang accidentally got something when she was traveling around the martial arts world in her early years. I hope Mr. Shen won't despise it."

Shen Ping'an opened the wooden box on the table, and when his eyes fell on the things in the wooden box, Shen Ping'an's eyes froze.

I saw that the thing in the box was a ginseng.

Even without getting close, Shen Ping'an could still smell the scent of ginseng entering his nose.

Almost the moment he saw the ginseng, Shen Ping'an recognized what it was.

"Nine-bearded Red Jade Ginseng."

Unlike ordinary ginseng, the Nine-bearded Red Jade Ginseng is round like a red cinnamon and about the size of a lychee.

The most peculiar thing is that this ginseng is white all over, and its nine roots are bright red.

It can be said to be a unique species of ginseng, and it has miraculous effects in healing wounds and removing toxins.

The reason why Shen Ping'an reacted so strongly was probably because among the medicinal wine recipes Shen Ping'an knew, one of them was brewed mainly with Nine-bearded Red Jade Ginseng.

After taking it, it can improve the warrior's roots.

Nowadays, if Shen Ping'an has any shortcomings, apart from his cultivation, it is the problem of his own bones.

A once-in-a-century physique sounds good, but to put it bluntly, it is neither as good as the best nor as good as the worst.

If you practice ordinary Xuan-level or even Earth-level martial arts, it is enough.

But Shen Pingan himself practiced the top-grade martial arts of the heavenly level.

Not to mention anything else, just the sword he used against Yao Yue before, although it seemed to be understated, in fact, that sword had already consumed 10% of the true energy in Shen Pingan's body.

This is when the "Heaven-Cutting Sword Art" has not yet accumulated strength.

The sword that was just used against Yao Yue only exerted 50% of its power.

The real way to use it is to build up momentum with a special mental method, and then draw the sword when the sword intent and the momentum in the body reach the peak.

But now Shen Ping'an's physique is only one in a hundred, and the amount of true energy that his dantian can accommodate is limited.

Once all the strength is exerted, after one strike of the sword, ninety percent of the true energy in the body will be gone.

Originally, Shen Pingan was thinking that in the following time, besides practicing, he would also look for medicines that could improve his bones. For Shen Pingan, this Nine-bearded Danyu Ginseng was undoubtedly a pillow when he felt sleepy.

In response, Shen Pingan nodded and said, "To be honest with Miss Zhang, this is indeed what I need. Since Miss Zhang gave it to me, I won't be polite."

Zhang Sanniang smiled and said, "As long as Master Shen likes it, that's good."

The sunshine at noon is still somewhat warm.

When Zhang Sanniang twisted the teacup in her hand, her green fingers were actually whiter than the teacup she was holding.

The little bits of sunlight cast a halo on his hands, making them shine brightly.

When the wind blows, the copper bells on the eaves tremble slightly, startling a few petals of the weeping crabapple trees off.

The petals swirled across the stone table, and one of them fell into Zhang Sanniang's undrunk tea, and a hint of rouge appeared on the amber tea surface.

He withdrew his gaze from the petals in the cup and looked up at Shen Pingan opposite him. There seemed to be a special and complex emotion brewing deep in his eyes.

After a few breaths, Zhang Sanniang said, "Sanniang will need to return to her sect to retreat for a while. If Master Shen needs anything, please send a letter to the Zhang family in Xuzhou."

Shen Ping'an's thoughts turned, and he suddenly understood.

He nodded immediately and said, "Miss Zhang, if you have any questions about swordsmanship, you can come to me."

"must!"

Zhang Sanniang nodded first, hesitated for a moment, and then said softly: "There are many disputes in the capital, and Cao Zhengchun and Tiedan Shenhou are fighting constantly. It's okay for both sides to fight endlessly now."

"I'm afraid that if there's a win or loss between the two of us in the future, Mr. Shen's presence will only make people wary."

"Instead of going through unnecessary trouble, it would be better to leave the capital and choose a place far away from the fighting."

Hearing this, Shen Pingan nodded: "I understand Miss Zhang's good intentions."

"That's good."

Zhang Sanniang smiled, drank the tea mixed with flower petals in the cup, slowly stood up, and jumped away.

After Zhang Sanniang left, Qu Feiyan, who was standing outside the pavilion, asked curiously while clearing away the teacups, "Sir, why did Miss Zhang suddenly decide to go into seclusion?"

Shen Pingan said softly: "If I'm not mistaken, he must have been provoked by that Yaoyue Palace Master!"

As two extraordinary women in this world, Zhang Sanniang and Yao Yue have similar reputations.

Although Zhang Sanniang did not express it as obviously as Yao Yue, she was actually also proud.

Judging from Yao Yue’s conversation and attitude just now, it seems that the two women have already fought, and Yao Yue was the winner.

Today, Yao Yue has even comprehended the sword intent, and her strength has surpassed Zhang Sanniang.

How could Zhang Sanniang possibly be willing to accept this?

At this time, Shen Qingshan suddenly asked: "Cousin, before Miss Zhang left, she suggested that we change places, and you didn't object. Could it be..."

Shen Pingan did not hide it and said truthfully: "I do have such thoughts."

Shen Qingshan's expression changed slightly.

But before Shen Qingshan could speak again, Shen Tiannan quickly entered the garden.

When Shen Tiannan saw Shen Pingan in the garden, his eyes lit up and his pace unconsciously quickened.

After arriving in front of Shen Ping'an, Shen Tiannan handed the gilded invitation in his hand to Shen Ping'an.

"Safe, the head of the East Depot has personally delivered an invitation, saying that Cao Zhengchun invites you to meet at Wangjiang Tower at noon tomorrow. He's waiting in the front hall."

Just when Shen Ping'an took the invitation, Shen Tiannan suddenly spoke again, but this time, his voice was a little heavier.

"Also, I just received news that the Wang family is gone."
