"Senior Brother, are you welcome?" Chu Yunying looked at Lin Fan, her jade lips parted slightly, and she uttered a melodious and clear voice.
Her appearance was stunning, and under the moonlight, she was even more breathtaking, like a fairy descended from heaven.
"If I say you're not welcome, will you leave?" Lin Fan asked.
Chu Yunying has a calm personality, doesn't like to communicate with people, and usually lives a secluded life, engrossed in cultivation. It seems that he didn't have much interaction with her in his previous life.
But one thing is certain: in her past life, she was also in Long Aotian's harem. With her cold personality and asexual appearance, it would be difficult for ordinary people to move her.
Only someone like Long Aotian, a shameless, overpowered chosen one, whose charm is enhanced by the protagonist's halo, can easily accomplish this.
"Senior Brother, you're joking," Chu Yunying said.
Damn it, I really want to get away from you. You always have this cold face, like everyone owes you something. And you're the harem of some arrogant protagonist. Get as far away from me as possible.
Lin Fan inwardly scoffed, but he still calmly said, "Please say what you need to say, or I'm going to sleep."
Seeing that he didn't seem to be joking, Chu Yunying explained, "I'd like to ask my senior brother for a favor!"
"I won't help, we're not familiar with each other!" Lin Fan raised his hand to refuse, then closed the door directly.
“After it’s done, I will pay my senior brother a Leaf of Ice Crystal as a reward!” Chu Yunying said.
creak
The door opened, and Lin Fan walked out, his face full of righteousness, and said, "Helping my junior sister is my responsibility as her senior brother, and it's definitely not for the sake of Yi Ye Bing Jing. I wonder what you need my help with, junior sister?"
"Please come with me, senior brother!" Chu Yunying said with a smile.
Watching her retreating figure, Lin Fan felt a pang of regret. He shouldn't have agreed to her so rashly. If Long Aotian had asked him to lure him out and then set up an ambush, he would be in danger.
But the Ice Crystal Leaf is too tempting. Legend has it that an ancient emperor left behind a legacy, and the key to opening the legacy cave is the Ice Crystal Leaf.
In his previous life, after he became a demon, he was easily defeated by Long Aotian. It was he who obtained the inheritance of that emperor, and his key was also given to him by Chu Yunying.
Very few people know the secret of the One Leaf Ice Crystal. The reason why Chu Yunying has such a personality is because of the disaster brought by the One Leaf Ice Crystal. Her family was wiped out, and Leng Xingyue happened to pass by and saved her, taking her back to Youzhu Peak and making her the fourth personal disciple.
He just couldn't understand why she would so easily hand over such an important piece of ice crystal to an outsider.
Lin Fan's expression kept changing until they arrived at a deserted place, at which point his desire to back out grew stronger.
As Chu Yunying slowly drew her sword, Lin Fan took two steps back and reminded her, "Junior Sister Chu, harming a fellow disciple is punishable by death. You must remain calm and not let momentary love cloud your judgment."
"Senior Brother, what did you say?" Chu Yunying asked, puzzled. "I just want to ask you to practice swordsmanship with me."
Lin Fan's eyes twitched. He cautiously surveyed his surroundings. Why did he have to come in the middle of the night to practice swordsmanship, and to a deserted place? It was terrifying.
He was genuinely terrified that Long Aotian and Chu Yunying had conspired against him.
To give her a leaf of ice crystal just for practicing swordsmanship is a bit too extravagant; even the sect leader wouldn't dare to do that.
"No problem. If it's just for sword practice, you don't need to travel this far."
“It’s quiet here, and I usually prefer to practice here,” Chu Yunying explained.
Lin Fan drew his sword and said with a smile, "Since Junior Sister wants to practice swordsmanship, I'll accompany her to the end."
He released his divine sense to keep a close watch on his surroundings, and remained vigilant even when safety was uncertain.
As a cultivation fanatic from Youzhu Peak, Chu Yunying charged forward earnestly, her sword flashing and leaving behind a dazzling display of color in the moonlight.
Lin Fan was startled and dodged to the side, only to see the sword shadows coming like a rain of pear blossoms. He was annoyed; the speed of the sword strikes was too fast.
Even though they were both at the late Foundation Establishment stage, why was he unable to withstand the attack?
Chu Yunying's sword was fast, accurate, and ruthless, forcing him to retreat repeatedly. She flashed a sword shadow in the darkness and knocked his sword away with a bang.
Lin Fan knelt on the ground, supporting his body with his hands, breathing heavily. Is this the strength of the female lead?
"Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the hidden mission and obtaining a set of Dragon and Phoenix Sword Techniques."
The system's voice came through: "Host, do you want to learn?"
Lin Fan opened his inventory and found two new manuals: the Dragon Soul Sword Technique and the Phoenix Spirit Sword Technique. He knew without a doubt that these were a set of sword techniques for couples to practice.
"The host has agreed to cultivate the Dragon Soul Sword Technique and has reached the first level of the Dragon Soul Sword Technique!"
He was still considering whether or not to learn it when the system helped him unlock the skill.
"Damn system, enough already! Now you're not only making many new tasks hidden, but you're also making decisions for me directly. You're a scoundrel!"
He couldn't help but curse. This bastard was getting more and more arrogant; he couldn't let it get away with it.
As expected, the system fell silent again. He felt a powerful sword intent permeating his body, as if his sword had developed a tacit understanding with him.
"Senior Brother, are you alright?" Chu Yunying walked over and asked with concern.
Lin Fan noticed the improvement in his swordsmanship. He decided to ignore it and show off tonight, intimidating his junior sister and letting her know what it means to respect her senior brother.
"I'm fine. I was just letting you win earlier. Now I'm going to get serious." He dusted himself off, picked up his sword, and raised it.
Chu Yunying rarely smiled, her smile as beautiful as moonlight.
"good…"
Lin Fan circulated his spiritual power, and in a flash, he disappeared from the spot, leaving no trace of his presence.
Chu Yunying was startled and noticed the movement behind her. She then swung her sword to strike, but Lin Fan appeared out of nowhere. He bent slightly, turned sideways, and slashed, unleashing a powerful force.
When the two swords clashed, it was Chu Yunying's turn to suffer a great loss. She felt a slight numbness in her arm, the sword hummed, and she was so shaken that she could hardly hold the sword.
Seeing her sword being knocked away, she could hardly believe that her senior brother, who had just been struggling to defend against her attacks, had suddenly knocked her sword away with a single move.
His movements and strength were completely different, as if he were a different person altogether.
Lin Fan was astonished. As expected of a product of the system, it directly boosted his strength to a higher level.
"Senior Brother, what kind of swordsmanship is that?"
She asked curiously, feeling that the swordsmanship displayed by her senior brother was domineering and fierce, like a flying dragon in the sky with a grand and sweeping momentum.
"This is called the True Man's Sword Technique!" Lin Fan said, head held high and chest puffed out, with a mysterious expression.
Chu Yunying: ...
She was eager to know what her senior brother's swordsmanship was. Knowing that it didn't belong to the Qingxiao Sect, perhaps it was his own destiny, and guessing that he was unwilling to reveal it, she naturally didn't want to force him.
"Then I'll get serious too, Senior Brother, watch out!" She winked and said playfully.
Then the two figures clashed and separated repeatedly under the moonlight, their sword energy raging and invisible waves of energy spreading out in circles, producing clanging metallic impacts.
"Senior Brother, be gentle!"
A delicate cry rang out, and Chu Yunying's sword was once again knocked away. Her arm was numb from the shock, and she could no longer grip the sword tightly.
The Dragon Soul Sword Technique was extraordinary. Lin Fan simply unleashed a flurry of attacks with his sword, and Chu Yunying couldn't withstand it. She was defeated in just a few rounds, her hair disheveled, her head covered in sweat, and she was panting heavily.
"Senior Brother, can you teach me this sword technique?"
She looked at Lin Fan expectantly, hoping to learn the sword technique. She could tell that this sword technique was extraordinary, even stronger than the sword technique she was currently practicing.
Seeing his strange gaze, which seemed both wary and suspicious, Chu Yunying steeled her heart, took out an ice crystal from her bosom, and said, "Senior Brother, this is the Ice Crystal I promised you. As long as you come and practice swordsmanship with me every night for the next three months, that's all you need to do."
Lin Fan took the ice crystal with some skepticism. Under the moonlight, the ice crystal shone brightly.
If I spend three months with her, could it be that she wants to improve herself for the sect competition three months from now?
The sect holds a grand competition every year to assess the disciples' cultivation progress over the past year, and the rewards are very generous.
However, the Qingxiao Sect has seven main peaks, each with nine personal disciples under its master, fifty inner disciples, and three hundred outer disciples. It is not easy to win a top ten ranking.
"Since Junior Sister is so magnanimous, Senior Brother cannot be petty. This is the sword technique I have cultivated."
He glanced at the two manuals in his inventory, decided to take out the Dragon Soul Sword Technique, and said with a smile.
Chu Yunying was overjoyed and reached out to take it, but Lin Fan pulled back and said, "You swear that this sword technique cannot be passed on to a third person."
"Okay!" Chu Yunying understood his concerns. After she nodded and made the oath, Lin Fan handed the sword manual to her.
"Phoenix Spirit Sword Technique!"
As Chu Yunying looked at the sword technique, she felt the ancient aura emanating from the sword manual, along with a faint but powerful pressure. Her breathing became slightly rapid as she eagerly flipped through the pages.
?
When Lin Fan heard the name of the sword technique she mentioned, he was shocked. Wasn't he supposed to be using the Dragon Soul Sword Technique? How could it be the Phoenix Spirit Sword Technique?
He immediately opened his inventory and was furious. The item in his inventory was the Dragon Soul Sword Technique, which meant that the Phoenix Spirit Sword Technique he had just given him was the same one.
"System, what are you up to now?"
"Host, please have some self-respect. You've made a mistake because you're old and blind. Don't wrong an innocent person," the system said.
Lin Fan gritted his teeth, wishing he could grab this traitor and give him a good beating.
"Junior Sister Chu, I'm sorry, I misread it just now. This is the sword technique that was meant for you."
He took out the Dragon Soul Sword Manual, intending to snatch it back from her, but Chu Yunying moved aside and skillfully dodged it.
"Senior Brother, there's no reason to take back something once it's been given away." She glanced at the book in Lin Fan's hand, a faint smile playing on her lips.
She could tell that the Phoenix Spirit Sword Technique and the Dragon Soul Sword Technique were a set of sword techniques. The Phoenix Spirit Sword Technique focused on skill to gain advantage, which is called "opening up"; the Dragon Soul Sword Technique focused on momentum to gain substance, which is called "closing out". The way of opening up and closing out is invincible.
The two methods complement each other. As you can tell from their names, they are separate sword manuals for men and women, making them a set of sword techniques that are very suitable for couples to cultivate diligently.
From their exchange just now, she could guess that her senior brother was practicing the Dragon Soul Sword Technique.
Lin Fan watched as Chu Yunying put away her swordplay and started practicing with her sword, so he had no choice but to give up.
That damn system is messing with him again.
