To her surprise, Gu Linchao was dressed in a black outfit today, his hair was tied up, revealing his smooth forehead, and he looked capable yet dignified...
It's still as beautiful as ever, but there's something different about it.
Wen Nongnong was stunned for a moment, then came to her senses and walked towards the pavilion.
"Your Highness." She bowed as was customary.
Gu Linchao put down his teacup and turned to look at him.
Seeing that she was wearing training clothes and clearly had just finished practicing, I was somewhat surprised.
His gaze lingered on her clean-cut face for a moment.
Her face was already small, and now that all her hair was tied back, it made her face look like it was only the size of a palm.
Because she had just finished practicing her martial arts, her face was flushed, as if she had applied the finest rouge, making her look stunningly beautiful.
After a long while, Gu Linchao finally looked away. Seeing that she was still holding a stick, he paused and asked gently, "Were you practicing your martial arts just now?"
Wen Nongnong nodded, "Yes." Seeing that he had brought it up himself, she seized the opportunity to say, "But I feel that my staff skills are already quite proficient, yet I can't seem to improve any further. Could Your Highness help me?"
Gu Linchao paused for a moment, then asked, "How do you want me to help you?"
Wen Nongnong couldn't help but take a step closer. "Your Highness promised to teach me lightness skills last time. Why don't you teach me today?" she said, looking at him expectantly.
Gu Linchao called her over today precisely because of this matter, but she brought it up herself, saving him the trouble of explaining.
"Alright." He stood up. "Show me a set of staff techniques first, so I can know your foundation."
“Okay.” Wen Nongnong readily agreed, picked up her stick, walked out of the pavilion, and stood in the open space in the courtyard.
Gu Linchao stood on the steps with his hands behind his back, watching.
As she herself said, her staff skills were indeed very proficient, and she was quite strong. Every swing of her staff brought a gust of wind, and her attack speed was fast. However, because she had no internal energy, her staff skills looked impressive, but in reality, they had little killing power. She could handle a few ordinary people, but if she encountered a real master, she would be in danger.
Thinking of this, Gu Linchao frowned and couldn't help but recall the assassination attempt he had suffered in the suburbs last time.
In retrospect, her ability to kill the Northern Di assassin last time was purely by chance.
If we encounter assassins again...
Gu Linchao's expression was somewhat cold.
After Wen Nongnong finished demonstrating a set of staff techniques, she put the staff away, turned to him, and asked, "Your Highness, how did I do?"
"His staff skills are passable," he commented casually.
Upon hearing this, Wen Nongnong was not annoyed, but humbly said, "I know I lack internal energy, so my staff skills are greatly diminished. Does Your Highness have any way to help me learn quickly?"
Gu Linchao didn't speak, but stepped down the stairs and stood in front of her.
Wen Nong Nong glanced at him, and was about to speak when he suddenly said, "Attack me."
"Huh?" Wen Nongnong thought she had misheard.
"Attack me," Gu Linchao repeated.
Wen Nongnong was sure she hadn't misheard, and seeing his serious expression, she realized he wasn't joking, so she had no choice but to make her move and attack him.
With his hands behind his back, Gu Linchao simply tilted his head slightly to avoid her attack.
Wen Nongnong missed her first move and was stunned for a moment. Seeing his relaxed and unhurried appearance, she bit her lip, unwilling to admit defeat, and attacked him again.
Gu Linchao remained with his hands behind his back, and without making any visible movement, he easily dodged her attack.
