Relating Yearning with Sword - C69
The Eighth Old Patriarch smiled and said, “That’s fine too. I know that your ‘Drunken Zhong Kui’ boxing technique has already penetrated deep into your heart. It’s just that I’m afraid that you won’t be able to do anything good if you meet me tonight.”
Hu Lie laughed and said, “Is there even a need to say that? I came to you for advice. You just don’t have to hide it! ”
As he spoke, he stood up and said to Guo Jiu Ru beside him, “Seventh Brother, don’t you want to try your hand and foot? If you miss tonight, it’ll be difficult to find an opportunity like this!”
Guo Jiu Ru smiled and said, “The one the old gramps favors is little brother Wu, why should we bother?”
Hu Lie said, “I don’t care about that. Everything has to do with first come first served. Old Master, take a look at your fist!”
As soon as the words were out of his mouth, the horse split apart under his feet, and then he threw a punch straight at the Eighth Lord.
This punch of Hu Lame’s must have been full of strength, to the point that when the fist was thrown, the entire pavilion would rumble loudly for it.
This punch of his was directed towards the chest of the Old Master of the Eighth Old Master. It was quite impressive.
A wind pillar formed a tremendous force.
The Eighth Lord’s long robe and snow-white beard were all rolled up behind him. The force of this force was so strong that it was hard to imagine.
The eighth grandfather chuckled, “Good punch!”
As soon as the words left his mouth, both of his palms suddenly flipped outwards. Strangely, that sharp wind was drawn away by the Eighth Lord’s gesture, vanishing with a sudden sound.
This method of ‘tipping things four times a thousand kilograms’ was extremely ingenious.
Normally, when hands and feet came into contact with a saber, the old man’s method of “using the air to guide the air” had never been seen before.
Hu Lie was stunned for a moment before he quickly added, “Old Master, please look at this again.”
He was tall and big, so he suddenly jumped up into the air like a whirlwind.
It was like a black cloud amidst a gale. It came quickly.
The Eighth Lord still sat motionless on the ground.
Hu Lie’s body suddenly descended, and his uninjured thigh suddenly shot out, kicking towards the Eighth Old Master’s head.
“Pa!” “Whoosh!” Consecutive, the pants made two crisp sounds as the wind blew.
The eighth grandfather’s left and right temples were already in the care of the other.
Wu Yu Xue looked on from the sidelines. She knew that Hu Lie was going all out just like that and was not merciful in the slightest. How could he be so reckless, if he could not predict that Hu Lie would be able to resolve the conflict?
Indeed, when he saw that the pair of flying feet were about to land on the eighth grandfather’s temple, he saw the old man turn his head. His posture was as natural as it seemed, just swinging a little.
Hu Lie’s fierce flying feet actually kicked empty air.
The moment Hu Lie’s feet missed, he knew that the situation was not good. He laughed loudly and said, “I admit defeat.”
The cry had not stopped when he suddenly made a somersault in the air, wanting to land on the spot, but he was still unable to escape the Eighth Lord’s swift hands. With a “pu” sound, he was already on Hu Lie’s leg, which was used to kick people.
Naturally, the Eighth Lord was being extra merciful to him. It was just a joke between the two, otherwise, they would have to pay attention to facing each other in battle. Don’t even think about getting Cripple Hu’s leg.
Hu Lie came in from outside the pavilion in a daze and said loudly, “The old man is truly a god. I, Hu Lie, have truly admired you from the bottom of my heart.”
The Eighth Old Patriarch’s eyes flickered as he looked at Hu Lie in shock and said, “I haven’t seen you for over a year, but your skills have improved so much.” “It seems like you already have a deep and profound foundation in internal energy. You can very well go up a level and spend some effort on your vital energy and blood.”
Hu Lie chuckled, “Then I’ll have to ask your old man to break the rules and take care of you.”
The Eighth Lord nodded and said, “Very good. I’ve brought along a book about the secret police, the Blood Leaks. You can come and take a look one day. As long as you practice it, you’ll see how useful it is in less than three months.”
Hu Lie could not help but feel overjoyed as he repeatedly expressed his gratitude.
Only then did the Eighth Old Master move his eyes towards Wu Yuxue and said, “What? Do you want to try?”
Wu Yuxue observed him coldly and concluded that this old man was indeed very skilled. He was a rare mutant in this world. If she could get some advice from him, she would definitely benefit a lot. However, she didn’t dare to act recklessly in order to keep her family’s name in mind.
However, he kept on urging her, as if he had a deeper meaning. If he really did so, then it would be inconvenient for him to persist and he would miss this opportunity.
Guo and Hu were both aware that the Eighth Lord wanted to break the rules, but he refused to do so. They were both puzzled.
Guo Jiu Ru smiled slightly and said, “Little brother, do you have any obstacles?”
Wu Yuxue said, “Senior Guo, there’s no need to be suspicious. I really don’t dare to make a fool of myself. Since the Eighth Lord wanted to make a fool of me, I have no choice but to make a fool of myself.”
With that, he walked up to the Eighth Old Master and stood still, clasping his fists as he said, “Old senior please advise me more, this one is too presumptuous.”
He had seen how amazing the eighth grandfather’s skills were, and that move of his just now was even more ingenious. He was afraid that if he were to make another mistake, he would be able to gather his strength as he stood, carefully observing the other party’s movements, but he was in no hurry to make a move.
The eighth grandfather was still the same as before, with his hands behind his back, looking calm and composed. His diamond-shaped eyes, however, were destined to look at his opponent without blinking.
If I were to attack him directly from the front, I would definitely encounter the same situation that Hu Lie was in earlier. I might as well lure him in through false pretense before making a move.
As he thought this in his heart, he followed the Yan Clan’s “Bow Steps” technique and started to rotate in the pavilion.
He knew that the three people present were all rare experts and had some connections with the Yan Clan. There was really no need to hide anything. Once he used his movement technique, it was all a secret of his sect.
The Eighth Old Master slightly nodded his head and said: “Don’t blame the Yan Clan’s movement technique. “Little friend Wu, you don’t have to hide anything. You just have to call for me.”
Wu Yuxue replied, “Yes!”
Meng Ke Li sat back and swung out his left and right hands at the same time. He was using the Yan Clan’s famous “Swallow School Split Palm”.
The two palms, one on the left and the other on the right, each released a wave of force, aiming for the Eighth Lord’s shoulders.
The Eighth Old Master scolded, “So powerful.”
He had his hands on the handles of the chair, and with that cry his whole body jerked backward and stood upright.
Wu Yuxue’s ferocious palms actually hit nothing but air.
For Wu Yu Xue, this was to be expected. The two Sky-Splitting Hands were originally just a feint, but as soon as he made a move, his whole body was already flying towards her.
The Eighth Old Master sat down on his butt at the same time and faced Wu Yuxue’s pouncing body. Wu Yuxue had made his second move, thrusting his palm forward towards the old man’s chest.
The eighth grandfather’s left hand was raised upwards. He seemed weak but Wu Yuxue felt a strong suction force pulling his arm towards her. When she looked again, the eighth grandfather’s slender white hand was already pressed against her arm.
Wu Yuxue felt as if she had been struck by lightning. She felt her body shudder as if there was a force of forward motion. She was alarmed and quickly used her strength to sit back, allowing her to do so. It was still difficult to slow him down. The force he felt from his sitting position had magically turned into the force of his opponent’s hand, but it had all been transferred into his body.
In this way, Wu Yuxue could not bear it any longer. She knew that she could do anything against such a method. Even though she was so careful, it was still hard to avoid her following his path.
With this thought, he flipped his left hand, and in an instant of crisis, used one of the Yan Clan’s lifesaving moves, the “Tailtail Dragon” technique. With a swing of his palm, he suddenly counterattacked the Eighth Old Master’s arm.
The Eighth Old Master snorted, as if he was surprised.
He was confident that he could send Wu Yuxue out, so he had no choice but to forcefully retract the power that he had drawn out. He raised his hand to meet Wu Yuxue’s palm.
Wu Yuxue exerted a great amount of force.
The eighth grandfather was even more secretive.
The moment their palms came into contact, the Eighth Lord’s seat creaked! A sound rang out.
Wu Yuxue was drawn out for the second time.
Even so, he still fell for the eighth grandfather’s words. “Hu!” He was sent flying.
Wu Yuxue was extremely intelligent. She had more or less seen through the tricks of the Eighth Lord’s technique just now when she had been observing the fight from the sidelines.
The good thing was that the eighth grandfather kept using the same principle again and again, which gave Wu Yuxue great enlightenment.
He had a deep understanding of martial arts and had great talent. How could he not understand this careful comprehension?
Therefore, the Eighth Lord used the same trick to send him flying again, but it was ineffective because Wu Yuxue had grasped the key to strength.
His body, which was flying in the air, suddenly stretched and twisted before spinning in the opposite direction and landing lightly on the ground.
This move undoubtedly shocked Guo and Hu Diao, who were watching on the side.
The Eighth Old Master’s novel ‘trump card’ was undoubtedly his own invention. Wu Lin had only seen it for himself, but it seemed that Wu Yu Xue had already seen through it. It was astonishing.
Wu Yuxue’s body was as light as a feather when she landed in front of the Eighth Lord.
“I am honored to be able to receive the guidance of an old senior.”
Wu Yuxue clasped her hands and retreated to the side.
The Eighth Old Master’s eyes were intertwined with joy. He stroked his beard with one hand and nodded repeatedly.
“You are indeed smarter than others. If my heart is able to produce you, then in less than a year, you will surely shine like a great martial artist.”
Wu Yuxue was lucky enough not to make a fool of herself on the spot. On the contrary, she had learned the wondrous movement of forms.
His heart was filled with joy. With this realization, he could use his wisdom to create many different movement techniques, imperceptibly increasing his own strength.
The reason why the Eighth Lord had such an episode was probably to test if Wu Yu Xue was a capable person. As for what would happen next, it was hard to fathom.
After the four of them took their seats, the Old Master did not mention anything about martial arts anymore.
It was already late in the morning. Since Wu Yu Xue was someone who worked together in the business, she couldn’t stay any longer. She got up and said her goodbyes.
The Eighth Lord did not force him to stay.
“Well, we’ll see you tomorrow!” With that, the eighth grandfather turned to look at Guo Jiu Ru, “Jiu Ru, send him on his way. We’ll talk when he gets back.”
Guo Jiu Ru replied and left the pavilion with Wu Yu Xue, beaming with happiness.
“Did you and the eighth master know each other before?” Guo Jiu Ru probed Wu Yuxue.
Wu Yuxue shook her head and said, “No, we only got to know each other at the inn. It’s only been three or four days.”
Guo Jiu Ru exclaimed with a surprised expression.
“It seems that the old tutor is rather considerate towards you.” Guo Jiu Ru said as they walked, “This is indeed strange.”
“Why?” Wu Yuxue said.
This refined and elegant Guo Jiu Ru hadn’t given him a bad impression. Perhaps he would be able to reveal some information about the Eighth Lord from his mouth, and even a few words would be better than being completely at a loss.
Guo Jiu Ru looked at him and said with a smile, “You may not know this, but this old tutor is known as a difficult person to deal with …”
“Why is it so hard to deal with?” Wu Yuxue smiled and said nonchalantly, “I thought he was kind to people and didn’t have anything strange about him.”
Guo Jiu Ru smiled a little and said, “Of course, it’s all because of you. Little brother, you must have a certain level of confidence in yourself. A person who can be favored by the Eight Elder is someone that will be hard to meet in this lifetime, and that old man will not easily teach you martial arts. ”
“This … I know …” Wu Yuxue said.
“You know?” Guo Jiu Ru shook her head and said, “No, you still don’t know.”
Wu Yuxue suddenly stopped and said, “Senior Guo, there’s something in your words, please say it in front of your face …”
“No …” I can’t tell you right now … ” A mysterious smile appeared on Guo Jiu Ru’s face, “There’s something I want to ask you, what do you think we are?”
“Well,” Wu Yuxue shook her head and said frankly, “I don’t know!”
“What do you think?” Guo Jiu Ru said, “What do you think the Eighth Lord is doing?”
“It is said that this is the business of drying paper and ink, is it not?” Wu Yuxue said.
Guo Jiu Ru smiled mysteriously and said, “You’re half right.”
“What about the other half?” Wu Yuxue said.
Guo Jiu Fa ignored the astonishment on Wu Yu Xue’s face and continued walking forward as if he didn’t hear what he said.
When the two of them arrived at the gate, Wu Yuxue was still waiting for his reply.
Guo Jiu Ru paused for a moment, the previously relaxed expression on her face was suddenly replaced with a heavy one. She sighed softly and said, “You will know in the future.” I won’t send you off, please go back! ”
Wu Yuxue blanked out for a moment. Guo Jiu Ru was about to turn around, but stopped herself. She rolled her eyes at him and said hesitantly, “Forgive me for being nosy. How long have you been here?”
“I — Senior Guo, what kind of question is this?” Wu Yuxue said.
“Forget it …” Guo Jiu Ru shook her head, looking as if she wanted to say something but stopped and turned back.
