Great Love for All Heavens Begins with Huang Yaoshi

Chapter 77: Innate Invisible Sword Qi

Hua Manlou was actually somewhat used to it. What could he do? After all, this kid was his younger brother. He could only smile bitterly and said:

"Boss Jin, he's always been tactless with his words, please forgive me."

"It's okay. Brother Hua is a genuine person and he speaks the truth. Why should I be offended?" There was no trace of anger in Jin Jiuling's eyes.

"This place is remote and just outside the palace treasury. It's getting dark now, so we can eat first. I think Lu Xiaofeng should sneak into the palace soon."

Zhuang Bu Ran nodded, then turned his head to the outside, and seemed to see a man with a white face and a slight beard, wearing a snow-white robe, holding a black-sheathed sword, sitting upright on the eaves.

"It seems I wasn't the only one who saw Lu Xiaofeng and the Xue family's tigress having tea and snacks in the old street. Chief Steward Jin's people saw it as well. No wonder the palace seemed relaxed on the outside but tense on the inside tonight, and even invited the Lord of Baiyun City to sit in charge of the treasury."

"With City Lord Ye in charge tonight, Lu Xiaofeng will definitely return home in defeat."

"It's just a pity."

"What a pity?" Shi Xiuxue couldn't help but ask.

Zhuang Bu Ran said slowly:

"It's a pity that City Lord Ye doesn't have murderous aura, so we can't see the peak state of 'Flying Fairy from the Sky'."

"Xiao Ba, why can't you stand seeing others doing well?" Hua Manlou said helplessly.

"Because I'm blind, I can't stand seeing people being better than me!" the young man in red said nonchalantly.

Suddenly, everyone was speechless.

Jin Jiuling noticed that although the youngest son of the Hua family and the seventh son of the Hua family were both blind, they had completely different temperaments.

I felt that this young man in red was probably blind since birth, and there might be some mental problems, so he liked to speak ill of others and embarrass them.

While he was recuperating from his injuries some time ago, he was quiet for a while and kept thinking about who was plotting against him, until he thought of the sudden abdication of the head of Emei, Dugu Yihe, and the brutal murder of Huo Xiu and others.

I then learned from Lu Xiaofeng that the person behind the scenes was an unknown organization that had set its sights on the so-called Golden Roc Treasure. I wondered if they had discovered that I was the Embroidery Thief and were targeting the intercepted treasure.

But after so many days, everything has been peaceful and safe, so I wondered if I was being too suspicious and was fighting a battle of wits with the air again.

There are countless masters in the world, and perhaps there is a peerless master who has a weird temper and can't stand others taking the left foot first.

After enduring for a long time and spending a large sum of money, he asked the skilled craftsman Zhu Ting to tailor-make an iron foot for him. After he got used to it, his martial arts skills became three times stronger than before.

Since he was nineteen, he felt that the robbers who were caught were all stupid pigs. They had long been planning to commit a perfect crime, which, combined with the treasures they had previously obtained, might be enough to last them for one, two, or three years.

But if it takes longer, it is simply impossible, so after feeling that it is still under control, I decided to continue as planned.

Fortunately, there have been no accidents until now. Lu Xiaofeng has already suspected the red shoes, and the seemingly majestic Snake King is probably already in his grasp.

The only annoying thing was that a certain disgusting young man in red came again tonight, which immediately ruined the mood of the audience watching the show.

"There are always some people in this world who claim to be masters. They always think they are the most special people in the world. No matter what they do, others can't find them."

The young man in red suddenly said something without any context. Jin Jiuling's pupils shrank slightly, but before he was ready to say anything, everyone seemed to have noticed something and looked at him from afar.

Ye Gucheng suddenly stood up, and then a sword light flashed. Then, an extremely brilliant and swift sword light enveloped a sudden figure.

The figure's toes touched the ground and he began to retreat, but the sword light was chasing him like a rainbow and lightning. No matter how fast he retreated, he could not be as fast as the sword's attack.

In an instant, Lu Xiaofeng was forced to lean against the stone wall of the treasure house. Seeing the sword light piercing towards his chest like lightning, he had no time to dodge to the sides.

His chest suddenly collapsed, as if it had stuck to his back, causing this perfectly executed sword move, which should have pierced his chest, to have almost lost its force.

In this split second, Lu Xiaofeng struck out with such a deftness and speed that no one could describe it unless they had witnessed it with their own eyes. With a pinch of two fingers, he clamped the sword's tip, preventing Ye Gucheng's sword from advancing any further.

"Wonderful! Even without the wings of a phoenix, he has such a profound connection with the world. His Qinggong is excellent, and his fingering is even better."

A young man in red appeared outside the treasure house like a ghost, and said with a lazy smile:
"The Lord of Baiyun City's 'Flying Fairy from the Sky' is even more remarkable. It is formed before the move is launched, and the spirit remains after the move has been launched. It uses the most rigid to become the most flexible, and the unchanging to become the changing. It is truly a sword technique that is unparalleled in the world."

"It is a sword technique that is unparalleled in the world."

Ye Gucheng stood with his sword sheathed. His face was very pale, not pale nor cadaverous, but a color as translucent and lustrous as white jade. Then his eyes, like two cold stars, shot directly at the young man in red who had come inexplicably.

"I didn't expect another master to emerge in the martial arts world. Your Qinggong is probably not inferior to Lu Xiaofeng. It's a pity that you don't have a sword, so you are not a swordsman."

The young man in red stood with his hands behind his back:

"The Lord of Baiyun City seems to be an immortal, but why is his knowledge so mundane? Is the sword art such an inconvenient thing?"

"Are you practicing sword?" Ye Gucheng's eyes lit up frighteningly.

"Xiao Ba, City Lord Ye is in front of us, so don't act rashly." Hua Manlou hurried over.

The young man in red acted as if he hadn't heard anything and said calmly:
"A few days ago, I wanted to find a top swordsman to show me what first-class swordsmanship is like, but unfortunately, my wish was not fulfilled."

"I don't know if it's my bad luck or her good luck that she managed to escape death again and again."

"But seeing the swordsmanship of Lord Baiyun tonight has relieved a lot of my annoyance."

Seeing the calm and composed look of the young man in red, Ye Gucheng said:
"You look so arrogant, just like a swordsman. If your swordsmanship wasn't good enough, you would have died at the hands of others long ago."

"I know a martial art called the 'Six Meridians Divine Sword' that uses invisible Qi and sword energy. It means that wherever I can reach, I feel like I have an invisible sword. Whether I sweep it horizontally or point it in the air, I can injure the enemy. The sword energy is tangible and invisible. When I strike, it's as fast as lightning, with incredible swiftness and power. I can use it in a crossover, using Qi and sword energy to kill people without them even realizing it."

Ye Gucheng showed a happy expression and nodded:
"Using the human body as a scabbard, and drawing the sword as soon as you strike, it does sound like a pretty good sword technique."

"But I thought it was too petty and usually didn't like to use it until I heard about two peerless swordsmen in this era. Then I picked it up." Zhuang Buyan smiled.

"He even used this as a foundation to create a completely new sword technique."

"I'd like to hear the details." Ye Gucheng said directly.

"Hahaha"

The young man in red clapped his hands and laughed, his robes moving without wind, and a strong wind was stirred up around his body, forcing Lu Xiaofeng, Hua Manlou and others around him to retreat three or four feet.

Only Ye Gucheng exuded an extremely sharp edge, breaking the strong wind that was shaking the surroundings.

"In the martial arts world, many people claim to know how to wield a sword, and they are also proficient in Qigong and can use sword energy."

"But even though many people talk about it, I'm afraid there are very few people who can truly use sword energy, let alone those who can truly use sword energy."

"Since I can mobilize my internal energy to burst forth from my fingertips, transforming it into a sharp sword of energy to strike the enemy, why should I distinguish between my hands and feet? Therefore, I named the skill I created 'Innate Body-Splitting Invisible Sword Qi'."

When the young man in red said this, his boots exploded, his white hair flew wildly, and his hands and feet flashed with extremely sharp edges.

He looked like a white-haired young devil, which frightened the people around him. Especially Hua Manlou, who felt his extremely sharp aura and finally realized that this was his younger brother's true face.

Shi Xiuxue was the only one who remained calm on the field, because she had already seen the arrogant and unbridled side of the young man in red.

Lu Xiaofeng was surprised:
"Hua Manlou, I think I was wrong before. Your family doesn't hide a master whose martial arts ability ranks among the top five in the world. He can clearly fight for first place, second place, and third place."

Jin Jiuling had an inexplicable expression on his face and said nothing, as if he had discovered something.
