Chapter 49.1
Chapter 49.1
On the way back home, the young man kept trying to strike up a conversation with Lu Qingyuan, but Lu Qingyuan was not interested in him at all, and just wanted to see Feng Shao as soon as possible, so she didn’t respond much to the youth’s words along the way.
The young man was a little dissatisfied, but Lu Qingyuan’s delicate face made it difficult for him to get angry. After some probing, the young man found that Lu Qingyuan’s mind seemed to be only on her senior brother, the young man immediately rolled his eyes, thinking about it.
So he said with a smile, “Speaking of which, Brother Feng Shao is really a dragon among men. I was lucky enough to see Brother Feng Shao make a move. When he swung a sword with astonishing momentum, several devil cultivators couldn’t even react and their heads fell off in an instant. At that time, I admired him so much that I invited Brother Feng Shao to come to my house as a guest. Brother Feng Shao didn’t have any pretensions and readily agreed. Because of this, I and Brother Feng Shao became like brothers who know and take each other as confidants…”
The young man talked nonsense and made up a story casually. It’s just that he didn’t make up stories aimlessly. When he saw the long sword hanging by Lu Qingyuan’s waist, he guessed that her sect used the sword, so he made up such a story.
Lu Qingyuan didn’t feel any difference, but smiled and said, “Indeed, Senior Brother Feng’s sword technique is outstanding, far beyond the reach of us, his junior brothers and sisters. If I can learn one-tenth of Senior Brother Feng’s sword technique, I will be satisfied.”
The young man’s eyes lit up. He felt proud of himself, and continued to make up, “Brother Feng Shao is really good at the sword, and I admire him very much. Brother Feng Shao once discussed swords with me all night, and he said that the most exquisite sword technique in this world is the Tiangang Thirty-Six Sword Arts, followed by Xiaoyao Thirty-Six Sword Arts!”
The young man’s words are quite satisfactory, because every cultivator knew the two great Sacred Lands in the hearts of sword cultivators, Tiangang Sword Sect and Xiaoyao Hall. It is expected that since Feng Shao is a sword cultivator, he should also highly respect the sword techniques of these two places.
Lu Qingyuan nodded and said, “Indeed, the sword techniques of Tiangang Sword Sect and Xiaoyao Hall are both exquisite sword techniques that can’t be seen anywhere else in the world.”
The young man laughed again, “Brother Feng Shao once told me that if he has the opportunity, he must go to Xiaoyao Hall and ask Fairy Xiaoyao to learn the Thirty-Six Sword Arts of Xiaoyao Hall. However, I feel that although the Thirty-Six Sword Arts of Xiaoyao Hall are powerful, they may not be comparable to the swordsmanship performed by Brother Feng Shao. Although Fairy Xiaoyao has been famous for a long time, in terms of sword technique alone, she may not be comparable to Brother Feng Shao.”
The young man thought that his words were extremely beautiful. After all, he used the Fairy Xiaoyao to raise up and praise Feng Shao.But when the young man said this, he found that Lu Qingyuan had stopped in her tracks and was looking at him suspiciously.
The young man’s heart suddenly thumped, and he realized that he might have said something wrong. But his face remained calm, and he asked with a smile, “Miss, don’t you think I’m right?”
Lu Qingyuan narrowed her eyes slightly, showing more vigilance in her eyes.
She put her hand on the hilt of her sword and said in a calm tone, “Brother Feng Shao’s sword technique is a combination of the techniques, learned from the Taiwei Sect, and the other part is learned from Xiaoyao Hall. How can he say he wants to go to Xiaoyao Hall to seek advice regarding sword technique?”
Lu Qingyuan might be ignorant of the dangers of people’s hearts, but she is not stupid! After realizing that the other party was lying, she already understood the other party’s purpose in her heart.
The young man was startled, he could only sigh, and said quietly, “I didn’t expect to show a flaw here…”
Then, a malicious smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said, “Girl, I am Qu Xuan, the eldest son of the Qu family in Qingdi City. I saw that the girl looked like a celestial fairy, and wanted to ask the girl to marry me. I wonder if the girl can agree?”
Lu Qingyuan’s eyes were cold, and she said coldly, “You really are lying to me!”
“Oh, you can’t blame me! Who asked you to be too beautiful?” Qu Xuan said with a smile and continued, “Although the story I made up is false, my admiration for the girl is real. Can’t you think about it?”
Lu Qingyuan drew out her long sword and shouted.
“Stop talking nonsense! If you dare to speak rudely again, I will cut off your tongue!”
Qu Xuan sighed and said, “You don’t drink a toast and don’t appreciate wine, it seems that I have to use some tricks.”
Having said that, his tone turned cold and he ordered, “Old Shui, catch her alive!”
Before Lu Qingyuan could react, a male voice was heard calmly responding, “Yes, young master!”
Lu Qingyuan suddenly felt the wind blowing behind her. She was startled, and unconsciously used her movement technique to avoid it. When she looked back, it turned out that the one attacking her was a cultivator in the Divine Transformation realm.
“Oh, little girl, your reaction is quite fast.”
The other party snorted coldly, approached again, and reached out to grab Lu Qingyuan’s shoulder.
Lu Qingyuan quickly used her sword skills and fought with him.
But the other party, relying on their strength, actually fought against her sword with empty hands.
The afterimage of his two hands was so fast that it was almost impossible to catch with the naked eye.
Lu Qingyuan also tried her best to survive, but anyone could see that she wouldn’t last long at all.
