"Damn it, this old woman is deliberately making things difficult for me!"
Bai Hao is disgusted to death today.
I never expected Su Yuewan to pull this trick; I really underestimated him.
Not only did she give her a senior brother who hadn't changed anything, but she also made him cook for her personally every day.
Even after having someone to help him, he was still expected to cook the meal himself.
That's absolutely disgusting!
"You think I'll cook for you in the future? You're dreaming!"
"What are you muttering about?" A voice suddenly rang out, making Bai Hao shiver. He turned around and saw Su Yuewan had arrived. He smiled awkwardly and said,
"Sect Master, what brings you here?"
"Can't I come?" Su Yuewan casually sat on the wicker chair in the courtyard, her jade feet slightly raised, having taken off her white jade shoes, revealing her fair ankles.
"I said I would guide you in sword practice, and I've come while it's still early. Aren't you welcome?"
"Welcome, of course you're welcome." How could Bai Hao not welcome him?
However, he had absolutely no interest in practicing swordsmanship.
Could Su Yuewan's swordsmanship be better than the one given by the system?
But he couldn't say it clearly.
[Let her practice. I don't expect this woman's swordsmanship to be that great. I'll just give it a go.]
How powerful can it be if used casually?
Just give me a perfunctory response?
Su Yuewan gritted her teeth, suppressing her emotions. With a flash, a cyan longsword appeared in her jade-like hand, which she gripped tightly.
How dare they look down on her, the number one sword saint?!
So arrogant!
Today she's going to show this little rascal what it means to be the number one sword saint!
"Watch closely, I'll only demonstrate once!"
Su Yuewan took a light step and began her stance. The long sword in her hand moved like the wind and rain, sometimes fast and sometimes slow.
Wow, I never would have guessed this woman had this side to her.
Bai Hao's exclamation of surprise finally gave Su Yuewan a sense of pride.
Are you dumbfounded?
Were you amazed by my swordsmanship?
Su Yuewan's sword technique was the one she was most proficient in. Although the sword moves were simple, the sword intent contained within was as elusive as the wind and difficult to fathom.
They can often deliver a fatal blow when the enemy is off guard.
It was with this sword technique that she became famous throughout the land and became the number one sword saint.
Now that he's unleashed his power, no one can rival him.
That little rascal was probably so amazed he was ashamed he wanted to disappear.
Let's see if he still dares to look down on my swordsmanship!
【True white. 】
[I wonder if having no acting opportunities for so many years has caused your feet to smell bad?]
Um?
Smelly feet?
How does this relate to swordsmanship?
Su Yuewan turned around and found that Bai Hao wasn't paying attention to her swordsmanship at all, but was staring at her... feet?!
Because of a sudden interest, Su Yuewan took off her shoes and danced with her sword while stepping on the fallen leaves.
She thought this would make Bai Hao admire her even more.
But now, this bastard isn't watching her sword dance, but is staring at her jade feet?
You little pervert!
Su Yuewan was so angry that she couldn't even lift her sword.
But she couldn't openly go back and put her shoes on, as that would seem strange, since Bai Hao hadn't said anything.
"Were you even looking at it properly?!" Su Yuewan shouted in embarrassment and indignation.
"I'm looking carefully." Bai Hao nodded seriously, but in his mind he continued to critique Su Yuewan's feet.
[I didn't expect this woman to have such beautiful feet.]
I'm just wondering if I have athlete's foot, since I haven't washed in so many years.
"What a pity."
[But it really is beautiful...]
Hearing his comments about her feet, Su Yuewan was filled with shame and indignation. She could no longer continue her swordplay demonstration and abruptly stabbed her longsword into the ground in front of Bai Hao, startling him.
"Now that you've finished demonstrating, show me how to do it once!"
"Huh? Is that all? I haven't seen enough yet."
"Huh?" Su Yuewan immediately glared at him.
"What I mean is, I don't understand it yet. Would you like to demonstrate it again, Sect Master?" Bai Hao said cautiously.
Su Yuewan's face turned cold.
How could she not know what that little pervert was up to!
He wasn't failing to see his own swordsmanship clearly; he simply hadn't seen enough of his own feet!
That damn little pervert!
"Practice it right now!" Her voice was as cold as ice.
Bai Hao was startled and quickly picked up the sword stuck in the ground, but because Su Yuewan had used too much force when she stuck it in the ground, he couldn't pull it out immediately. He had to use both hands for a while before he could finally pull it out.
Good heavens, this sword is so heavy! It's heavier than my kitchen knife.
This is my first time holding a sword. Should I be excited or scared?
I was so focused on her feet that I didn't even remember her swordsmanship.
Bai Hao was very upset.
Making him imitate something after watching it only once is just making things difficult for him.
Besides, he wasn't even looking at it.
[Fine, I'll just mimic a couple of gestures to prove I really can't. This way I can also admire her feet—a win-win situation. I'm so clever.]
Su Yuewan's eye twitched violently, and she snapped, "What are you standing there for? Get up and do it!"
That little pervert is so infuriating!
She wanted nothing more than to stomp on his face and say, "You like watching, don't you? Then watch to your heart's content!"
I never imagined that this little rascal, who looks so respectable, could have such a filthy heart!
"oh."
Bai Hao looked completely innocent, then gripped his longsword and began to dance, following the movements that automatically came to mind...
Su Yuewan looked at him and had already made up her mind that no matter how badly Bai Hao danced, she would not demonstrate it a second time.
She would never give that little pervert a chance!
Let him go back and check his own foot!
Su Yuewan grew angrier the more she thought about it, but her gaze was still drawn to Bai Hao's swordsmanship.
"This is……"
She was surprised to find that Bai Hao's swordsmanship was surprisingly... good.
That swordsmanship was like the wind, like rain, moving without a trace. The fallen leaves in the courtyard moved with the sword, as if everything in the world moved with him.
What shocked her even more was that Bai Hao not only perfectly replicated the sword technique she had just demonstrated, but there was also a trace of... sword essence in this sword technique!
Sword essence is a higher form of existence than sword intent.
If sword intent is the soul of a sword technique, then sword essence is the soul of all sword techniques.
The saying goes that all sword techniques under heaven are variations on the same theme, and this "theme" refers to the essence of swordsmanship.
If one can comprehend the essence of swordsmanship, then even without having learned other sword techniques, one can instantly discern the strengths and weaknesses of a sword technique after just one glance. Thus, one can learn a sword technique at a glance, or find its flaws, thereby defeating the enemy.
Back then, Su Yuewan comprehended her own Dao essence, which is why she became the number one sword saint in one fell swoop.
But now, Bai Hao actually possesses sword essence?!
