The Thirty-Six Styles of Lingyun Swordplay is Qin Changhe's signature swordplay. The moves are complex and difficult to master, but the posture is graceful, like floating clouds, and extremely agile.
Qin Ying fell hopelessly in love with this sword technique after seeing her father perform it, and begged Qin Changhe to teach it to her on her eighteenth birthday.
Qin Changhe naturally wanted to pass on any special skills he possessed to Qin Ying.
However, there are conditions for practicing this sword technique. One must master the basic skills of the school and have a solid foundation. Otherwise, learning such a complicated sword technique will be more harmful than beneficial and may even injure one's health.
In the story, Qin Ying celebrates her eighteenth birthday, and Qin Changhe plans to fulfill his promise to teach her swordsmanship.
As a result, Qin Ying's foundation was too weak, and she couldn't understand the essence of this sword technique at all. Qin Changhe taught her one move and then left in a huff. Qin Ying was also extremely angry. He said he had promised to teach her, but he only taught her one move and then stopped. This was clearly a lie.
In a fit of anger, she ran away from home and went down the mountain to roam the martial arts world, which led to her later encounter with Jin Wuyou, a love that would haunt her for life.
Over the years that followed, this was the thing she regretted most: why did she get angry with her father back then?
Her father had already kept his promise. It was her own martial arts skills that were not up to par and she was not worthy of that sword technique. Why did she have to leave? If she hadn't left, would the fate of the Lingshan Sect have been changed?
Linghu Lan was filled with emotion and smiled, "Thank you, Father! I will practice diligently and will not disappoint you. However, I have another request. If I master this sword technique, Father, you need to teach me other martial arts. If one day I can defeat you, I will go down the mountain and roam the martial world on my own."
Qin Changhe was somewhat surprised that his daughter, who used to be lazy and shirk martial arts practice, would say such ambitious words. Although it was a bit presumptuous, it did show some spirit.
He nodded and laughed, "Alright, Father agrees. Don't underestimate the Spirit Cloud Sword Technique. Every move and stance has different variations. It took Father three months to learn this martial art and thirty years to master it. Even now, I still have new insights. It's good for young people to be ambitious, but excessive confidence is arrogance, which is not a good thing. You want to beat me? Hahaha, you'll have to learn the Spirit Cloud Sword Technique first."
"yes!"
Linghu Lan smiled, not taking it to heart.
Qin Changhe's words make sense. Martial arts skills improve day by day through diligent practice. Nothing can be accomplished overnight. The reason she has been practicing martial arts so quickly these days is because she has a lot of experience in cultivation and combat.
More importantly, Qin Ying herself was already very proficient in those martial arts techniques, and she used her experience to present them even more perfectly.
However, Qin Ying had never practiced the Lingyun Sword Technique before, and Linghu Lan had to rely on her own comprehension to learn it again.
Without saying much, Qin Changhe immediately passed on the sword techniques and moves to Linghu Lan, and carefully explained his insights and understanding of this martial art. Linghu Lan listened quietly from the side, nodding and asking questions from time to time. Her questions were all to the point, and Qin Changhe was overjoyed, feeling as if his daughter had grown up overnight.
However, he soon realized it wasn't just his imagination. His daughter had truly changed.
