Zhou Xiao was so angry that he laughed. He specialized in swordsmanship, and even if you look at the entire Zhongzhou, there might not be anyone whose swordsmanship could match his.
Although she has lost her skills and still has a thin body, she can still make use of them.
But these few moves were enough to deal with Lu Chen, a kid who had only been practicing sword for a few days.
"Okay, in that case, I will teach you today what the sky is high and the earth is thick."
After saying that, Zhou Xiao snorted coldly and walked to the other side of the martial arts training ground.
Lu Chen couldn't help laughing. After all, no one in the entire Zhongzhou, even in the upper realm, dared to compete with him in swordsmanship.
"Okay, then please give me some advice, Third Junior Brother."
After saying that, Lu Chen also walked to the other side of the martial arts training ground. The two men locked eyes and started fighting right away.
Zhou Xiao rushed forward shouting angrily. As he couldn't reveal his identity, he could only use some basic moves, but he thought it should be enough.
But who would have thought that the fierce killing moves he launched were simply unable to deal with Lu Chen, and all of them were blocked by Lu Chen one by one.
...
...
Lu Chen put his hands behind his back. Even though Zhou Xiao was holding an iron sword that could hurt people, he still didn't care.
He blocked Zhou Xiao's attacks one by one with one hand, and even took the time to yawn.
Zhou Xiao sensed something was wrong and took several steps back, looking at Lu Chen suspiciously.
Lu Chen stretched lazily, as if nothing had happened just now.
"Junior brother, were you just joking with me? How come I couldn't detect any intention to hurt me?" Lu Chen said lazily.
Zhou Xiao put away his previous contemptuous look, he looked at Lu Chen seriously, and asked suspiciously:
"Brother, who taught you how to use the sword?"
"Who else but Master could ask this question? But most of it is something I figured out on my own because of my natural talent."
This time Zhou Xiao did not refute Lu Chen. After all, anyone who could practice swordsmanship to this level at this age was no ordinary person.
There was no longer the previous contempt in his eyes, but instead a hint of respect.
"Okay, senior brother, I'm going to be serious from now on!" Zhou Xiao said in a cold voice.
Then, he gathered his thoughts and rushed towards Lu Chen again.
This time, Zhou Xiao's swordsmanship was even more ferocious than before. Every move was filled with murderous intent, and he no longer had the playful look he had just now.
But even if Zhou Xiao was serious this time, he still couldn't hurt Lu Chen at all.
Lu Chen still blocked with one hand and didn't even take a step back.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Lu Chen suddenly collided with the sword swung by Zhou Xiao. The powerful shockwave instantly knocked Zhou Xiao back several steps.
He quickly changed his hand to hold the sword. After all, the previous blow really made his palm numb.
Zhou Xiao pinched his knuckles and then looked at Lu Chen in surprise.
"You...how come your swordsmanship is so strong?"
Lu Chen shrugged indifferently and explained: "Practice every day, and you will naturally become stronger."
"But you don't have to be so sad. Your swordsmanship is pretty good. At least among so many people, you are one of the few who can fight with me for a few moves."
"Even though I didn't even use one percent of my sword skills, you still deserve praise."
Zhou Xiao felt that his worldview had collapsed. So what he thought was the top swordsmanship in Zhongzhou was actually not as good as that of a little brat?
"Are you kidding me?!" Zhou Xiao roared, and then rushed towards Lu Chen again.
Looking at Zhou Xiao rushing towards him with a roar, Lu Chen shook his head helplessly.
"Alas... children are full of youthful energy."
"boom--"
As the sword energy surged, Zhou Xiao lost control of the iron sword he was holding and was knocked away.
And the next moment, the tip of Lu Chen's wooden sword was pointing directly at Zhou Xiao's throat.
As long as Lu Chen is willing, his uncle can end Zhou Xiao's life in the next second.
Zhou Xiao stared at the scene with dull eyes and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
After a while, Lu Chen put away his wooden sword and said calmly:
"Okay, don't feel so sad. You are already a genius for having such sword skills at your age."
"But I'm different. I'm considered a monster."
After saying that, Lu Chen put the wooden sword back on the weapon rack and patted Zhou Xiao on the shoulder.
"Don't be sad. Practice hard. In ten years, you might be able to achieve one percent of my sword skills."
"I'm going to go take a hot spring bath first. I've almost finished my training today."
After saying that, Lu Chen left straight away, leaving Zhou Xiao alone there, unable to recover for a long time.
After a while, Zhou Xiao fell to the ground like an upright dead tree.
"I... lost? Lost to an eight-year-old kid?"
…
Three days later, Lin Yang, who had been hiding from Zhang Xianfeng, finally returned to Chiyang Peak.
Seeing this, Lin Hongye, who was cooking with fairy fire in the kitchen, immediately pouted and said in dissatisfaction:
"Master, where have you been these days? I can't find you even if I want to. I watered your tea fields and flower gardens for you."
"Thank you, Hongye. I haven't been traveling these days." Lin Yang explained with a smile.
"Really? How did you come up with the idea of asking Xiao Lu and Zhou Xiao to kneel down before the Sect Master? The Sect Master has been hunting you down for several days."
"It was because that old man was chasing me that I ran away. Besides, I was trying to help you get resources."
Faced with Lin Yang's matter-of-fact words, Lin Hongye felt helpless.
"You really are..." Suddenly, Lin Hongye remembered something and immediately continued to say to Lin Yang:
"Master, you should go check on Xiao Xiao. He has been listless these past few days, and it's no use trying to get him to practice."
Hearing Zhou Xiao's listless tone, Lin Yang scratched his head in confusion.
"It shouldn't be that serious, right? I just asked him to kneel down and kowtow to old man Zhang, and he's already devastated?"
"Oh, that's not the reason. Never mind. Go and see for yourself. I'll go cook first."
After saying that, Lin Hongye returned to the kitchen. Seeing this, Lin Yang shrugged helplessly, and then flew directly to Zhou Xiao's cave.
Outside Zhou Xiao's cave, Lu Chen was sitting on a stone bench with a troubled look on his face.
"Why are you sighing here instead of practicing sword?" Lin Yang asked curiously after landing.
When Lu Chen heard the voice, he turned around and saw that it was Lin Yang, and shouted in surprise:
"Master, are you back?"
Lin Yang nodded, then he sat opposite Lu Chen and asked, "Okay, tell me, what happened?"
Lu Chen chuckled and then told him about the sword-fighting competition with Zhou Xiao a few days ago.
Lin Yang understood now. It turned out that Zhou Xiao's self-confidence was shattered by Lu Chen, so he became depressed.
When Lin Yang thought of Zhou Xiao's depressed look, he couldn't help but laugh.
