As the bells on Wanwan's bare feet jingled, a sense of alarm rose in Shi Feixuan's heart.
As her true energy surged forth, forming a dense barrier, Shi Feixuan held her longsword before her chest. Her true energy circulated along a special path, and then she lightly flicked her fingers on the sword, producing a series of trembling sounds.
However, just as Shi Feixuan held her longsword to her chest, Wanwan's Heavenly Demon Ribbon quickly drew an arc in the air, with one of the ribbons landing directly in front of Shi Feixuan.
"boom!"
Just as the Heavenly Demon Ribbons struck Shi Feixuan on both sides, a noticeable tremor came, and Shi Feixuan suddenly felt her feet sink into the ground.
The moment Shi Feixuan noticed the change beneath her feet, her eyes narrowed.
When Shi Feixuan looked down and glanced down, she immediately saw the bamboo spikes with sharpened tips at the bottom of the pit.
"She had dug this trap beforehand."
Upon seeing the bamboo spikes at the bottom of the pit, Shi Feixuan quickly circulated her inner energy and leaped high into the air.
But just as Shi Feixuan stood up, a Heavenly Demon Ribbon suddenly fell from above her head and slammed straight down on her.
Seeing this, Shi Feixuan had no choice but to raise her sword and thrust it out.
When Shi Feixuan's sword struck the Heavenly Demon Ribbon in mid-air, although it knocked the ribbon away, the residual force caused Shi Feixuan's body to sink back into the pit.
Fortunately, Shi Feixuan reacted quickly. After stabbing her longsword into the pit wall, she used the resistance inside the pit to stop herself from sinking.
But before Shi Feixuan could regain her balance, she seemed to sense something and quickly lowered her head again.
But as the rubble and soil fell, a hint of pink was seen in the dust kicked up beneath her.
At the same time, Shi Feixuan also smelled a strange fragrance.
"No, it's poisonous."
The moment she realized this, Shi Feixuan quickly mobilized her internal energy to protect her heart meridian while simultaneously expelling toxins from her body.
At the same time, after discovering that her pre-arranged trap had worked, Wanwan did not immediately pursue the enemy. Instead, she smiled smugly and then quickly flew towards the direction of the Tang Dynasty.
Ten breaths later, as Shi Feixuan successfully forced the poison out of her body, she quickly flew out of the pit and rushed in the direction Wanwan had just left.
Meanwhile, as the dust that had been swirling in the air gradually settled, a figure reappeared beside the pit.
A pair of bare feet stood out against the swaying of a long pink dress.
Who else could it be but Wanwan, who left before?
However, upon returning to the place where they had fought before, Wanwan coughed up a mouthful of blood the moment she regained her footing.
After glancing around the pit, Wanwan murmured, "Luckily, I was careful beforehand and set a trap here when I passed by this bamboo forest. Otherwise, I might have really fallen into the hands of this stupid woman today."
As the words left her lips, Wanwan let out a soft hum in her heart.
"No wonder she was brainwashed by those guys at Cihang Jingzhai. She's not big-breasted and not very bright either."
"If you're not prepared, who would willingly fight you when they're injured?"
Then, she gently raised her hand and waved it, burying the blood on the ground with some dust, before looking towards the direction of the Tang Dynasty.
"Just you wait, this is definitely not over yet."
As soon as she finished speaking, Wanwan focused her inner energy, ensuring that her aura did not leak out, before turning around and moving towards Yushui City.
Yushui City.
Inner courtyard.
After sitting down amidst the enticing aroma, and downing a glass of wine, the slight coolness of the wine helped to dissipate some of the lingering heat from the bath.
After several drinks, Qu Feiyan asked, "By the way, young master, you said before that Ximen Chuixue deliberately drew sword intent into his body. Wasn't he just asking for trouble?"
Hearing Qu Feiyan's question, Chu Qinghe glanced at Qu Feiyan and said, "He wants to sense Ye Gucheng's swordsmanship by feeling the Flying Immortal Sword Intent."
Lin Shiyin asked in surprise, "You injured yourself just for this?"
In response to Lin Shiyin's words, Chu Qinghe slowly said, "If one hears the Way in the morning, one can die content in the evening. For swordsmen like Ye Gucheng or Ximen Chuixue, who are purely devoted to the Way of the Sword, what does it matter if they suffer a little injury as long as they can improve their swordsmanship?"
At any time, talent and hard work complement each other and are both indispensable.
Whether it's Ximen Chuixue or Ye Gucheng, the effort they put in to become the top swordsmen among the younger generation of the Ming Dynasty was beyond what ordinary people could imagine.
As he spoke, Chu Qinghe glanced at Qu Feiyan and said, "Your sword intent has already reached the perfect level. Starting tomorrow, you can officially begin practicing swordsmanship."
Upon hearing this, Qu Feiyan asked in astonishment, "Why would you want to practice swordsmanship all of a sudden?"
Chu Qinghe said calmly, "Why do you think that even now, your 'Transplanting Flowers and Jade' and 'Indulging in the Steps to Immortality' have not yet reached the level of returning to simplicity?"
"Um?"
At this point, Qu Feiyan and the other two women all looked at Chu Qinghe.
Qu Feiyan spoke up, "Isn't it because the time is still short?"
Chu Qinghe said irritably, "You've used more wood carvings than Situ, Yaoyue, and Dongfang, and it's been more than half a year already. Isn't that a short time?"
Then, amidst the three women's confusion, Chu Qinghe slowly said, "You have encountered a martial arts obstacle."
