Liver into a martial arts legend: starting with Embroidered Spring Blade

Chapter 15: The Great Accomplishment of Body Skills [Seeking Follow-up Reading]

thunderbolt--

During the summer solstice, the climate is changeable.

The sky was originally hot and clear, but with a thunder, it started to rain.

At this moment, the sky was getting dark. The three horses stood in the rain and arrived at a fork in the road.

"Sir, it's getting dark. It's not convenient to travel at night. There's an official post station not far ahead. How about we go there to take shelter from the rain and then set off tomorrow morning?"

Xu Longqing proposed loudly in the heavy rain.

Jiang Xuan looked at the small path that forked ahead, pondered for a moment, then turned his horse around and said, "Let's not go to the post station, let's take the small path!"

Xu Longqing's expression changed slightly. "Sir, this post road is the only way to the northern border. Taking this path is too far. If you want to go back to the north, you will have to travel at least three times as far."

"Then take three times the detour!"

Jiang Xuan was decisive. Without waiting for the two to say anything, he rode his horse onto the path on the left and entered the lush jungle.

Xu Longqing and Chu Mo looked at each other. Although they were puzzled, they could only ride their horses to catch up.

The rain gradually got heavier, and soon the horse hoof prints were washed away.

Not long after, another fast horse came galloping over. After arriving at the intersection, it slowed down, hesitated for a moment, and then continued towards the post road, disappearing in the rain.

According to normal people's thinking, no one would have thought that Jiang Xuan would deliberately take a detour and do such a thankless task.

……

Half an hour later.

Jiang Xuan and the other two arrived at a dilapidated mountain temple and planned to rest there for the night.

After lighting the bonfire, the three men took off their clothes and hung them by the fire to dry, revealing their strong bodies.

We are all men, there is nothing to be embarrassed about.

It was only then that Xu Longqing asked the question in his heart: "Sir, why do we deliberately take a detour?"

Jiang Xuan said calmly, "Anyway, the higher-ups haven't specified how long we have to complete the mission. It's a rare opportunity for me to come out, so I'll just enjoy the scenery along the way."

"Ah, this..." Xu Chu and the others were both stunned, obviously not quite believing that Jiang Xuan actually thought this way.

No matter how beautiful the scenery is, can it compare to the prosperity of the capital?
"Starting tomorrow, you must change your attire and address, and don't reveal your identity unless absolutely necessary."

Jiang Xuan did not explain too much. After he finished speaking, he began to practice the Wind Chasing Step in the dilapidated temple by the light of the fire, and he had no intention of carrying the two of them on his back.

Xu Longqing naturally recognized the Jinyiwei's body movements and couldn't help but sigh: "Even in such an environment, they are so diligent. No wonder they were promoted so quickly!"

Chu Mo secretly curled his lips. In his opinion, Jiang Xuan's behavior at the moment was like a schoolboy being forced by his teacher to read and study. In order to complete the task, he turned the page before finishing reading. How could he remember anything?

When it comes to martial arts training, haste makes waste. It's not that easy to master.

What's more, it's impossible to make any progress by practicing in such an environment. Do you really think you are a genius?
Jiang Xuan ignored their thoughts and continued to practice the Wind Chasing Step over and over again. After getting better at it, his practice speed became faster and faster, and his proficiency began to increase steadily.

The same thing happened in the next few days.

The three men changed their clothes, hid their identities, traveled during the day and rested at night.

If you pass through a populated area, you will find an inn to rest. If you pass through the wilderness, you will have to sleep in the open air. Such days are never easy.

Xu Longqing was fine, but Chu Mo had some complaints in his heart. However, due to Jiang Xuan's power, he didn't dare to say much. However, he had secretly made up his mind that he must find a way to transfer after returning.

Following a superior like this, there will probably be no future for you.

It was just a simple job, killing a weak woman who was powerless. It could be done in three days at most and then returned to report. But you had to take a detour to suffer this torture. You must have nothing better to do.

Jiang Xuan naturally had no idea what the two were thinking, and he was too lazy to pay attention.

He practiced martial arts every day, rain or shine, occasionally practicing swordsmanship and bows and crossbows to avoid getting unfamiliar with them, but he mainly focused on his body movements.

His swordsmanship has reached a high level, but to reach perfection, he needs too much proficiency, and he cannot make a breakthrough in a short period of time. Therefore, he can only think of ways to improve his body movement and archery skills, and try his best to improve his strength before arriving at Jinglu Tunbu.

Ten days passed quickly.

That night, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and the three of them camped by a stream.

Xu Longqing and Chu Mo had already fallen asleep by the fire, while Jiang Xuan was still practicing the Wind Chasing Step by the stream.

He was agile and leaped back and forth on the protruding rocks beside the stream. Every step he took was precisely on the edge of the rock. When he was about to fall into the water, he instantly moved his toes away and used the force to step into the next place. His whole body was as light and nimble as a butterfly.

After practicing over and over again, Jiang Xuan even closed his eyes and jumped back and forth on the edge of the rock relying entirely on his memory.

At that moment, Jiang Xuan felt as if he had truly transformed into a butterfly. His body was light and his footsteps were brisk, making no sound. However, he could clearly feel the blood flowing rapidly through his body, especially in his legs. He could even hear a faint gurgling sound, which echoed with the flowing stream beside him.

"Click~"

After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Xuan suddenly woke up with a strange noise coming from under his feet. It turned out to be a piece of rotten rock. After being stepped on by him countless times, it finally couldn't bear it anymore and broke.

Jiang Xuan's body tilted, his center of gravity shifted to the right, and he was about to fall into the stream.

But the next second, as if by instinct, Jiang Xuan moved, and his falling body turned over in mid-air. Then he stepped lightly on the rock with his toes, used the force to step backward, and jumped onto a rock in the middle of the stream.

Jiang Xuan looked up and saw that he had jumped five or six meters in one step.

[Martial Arts: Wind Chasing Step (Great Mastery)]

【Progress: 7/3000】

It turned out that just now, without realizing it, the Wind Chasing Step had reached the great perfection level.

Jiang Xuan exhaled lightly and vaguely felt the changes in his body.

First of all, the leg muscles seem to have become stronger, and the blood flow has become faster.

As muscles become stronger, weight should increase accordingly, but Jiang Xuan feels that his body now seems much lighter than before.

shuh~
He jumped lightly and returned to the shore without making any sound.

"Is this still basic physical skills?"

Jiang Xuan chuckled and gained more confidence in the system.

As long as he has enough time, he can turn even a basic physical skill into a peerless light skill!

"Great achievements in swordsmanship and body movements, plus minor achievements in archery..."

"My current strength shouldn't be considered weak even among second-rate opponents. Even if I can't win, I can still run away. This increases my chances of completing this mission and returning alive!"

Jiang Xuan's eyes flickered as he made plans secretly.

He didn't know what preparations Lu Wenzhao had made to get rid of him this time, maybe he had no preparation at all.

But he still habitually thought of things in the worst possible way, made preparations in advance, and tried his best to improve his strength before the crisis came.

That's why he chose to take a detour and delay his journey to Jinglu Tunbu.

That is to say, there is not enough time. Otherwise, he would like to wait until he has mastered the sword skills, body skills and archery skills to perfection, and even practiced the legendary "momentum" before completing the task.

However, to kill a mere daughter of Yang Lian, a round trip of 1,200 miles would take at most half a month. If he delayed for a few more days, Lu Wenzhao might not say anything, but if there was no movement for a month or two, Lu Wenzhao would definitely be suspicious.

If the imperial court sends someone again, he might be the one to be killed.

"We can't delay any longer. We must speed up tomorrow and rush to Jinglu Tunbao as soon as possible."

Jiang Xuan made a plan, then walked to the stream, scooped up some water to wash his face, and then found a comfortable place to sleep.

at the same time.

In the capital, in a house in the south of the city.

"Gone?"

Lu Wenzhao frowned as he looked at the man in black in front of him: "Three people and three horses, how could they lose such a conspicuous target? Are you kidding me?!"

"Excuse me, my lord!"

The man in black quickly knelt down, his face filled with fear. "It was my fault. It rained all night, and all the traces on the road were washed away. I followed the post road all the way to the border, but couldn't find any trace of them."

"I suspect they took a detour..."

Lu Wenzhao's face darkened. After a moment's thought, he ordered, "Have the border guards keep an eye on them. If they haven't appeared in three days, issue a wanted order immediately!"

"Also, send a message to Xue Yanchuan, asking him to keep an eye on the Jinglu Tunbao. If they spot them, take action immediately!"

"Yes, sir!" The man in black took the order and left.

Lu Wenzhao turned his head and looked towards the northwest with cold eyes.

I don't believe you can still fly!
