Chapter 62 Preparing to Go to the Central Plains
Chapter 62 Preparing to Go to the Central Plains
Not far from the two, Bai Axiu supported Shi Xiaocui, looking at them with concern.
Unlike Bai Axiu, Shi Xiaocui's eyes were full of anticipation. She had witnessed Shi Zhongyu's knife skills and knew that he had already reached the pinnacle of his craft.
She was in no way inferior to Bai Zizai, Shi Xiaocui heard Bai Zizai order Shi Zhongyu to draw his sword.
She suddenly called out, "Stone boy, catch the knife!"
Shi Xiaocui took out a knife and threw it to Shi Zhongyu.
Shi Zhongyu replaced his sword with a knife.
Seeing this, Bai Zizai glared angrily at Shi Xiaocui.
"Shi Zhongyu is a disciple of my Snow Mountain Sect, and he practices swordsmanship. What kind of saber technique are you going to teach him?"
Shi Xiaocui snorted.
"I'll show you, you arrogant fool, that the sword technique I created can overpower the Snow Mountain Sect's sword technique."
"My swordsmanship is called the Golden Crow Swordsmanship. When the sun rises, the snow-capped mountains will melt!"
Bai Zizai snorted coldly again upon hearing this, then fixed his gaze on Shi Zhongyu.
"Young Shi, have you even mastered the seventy-two forms of the Snow Mountain Sword Technique before haphazardly trying to learn the sword? Today, I'll show you the power of our Snow Mountain Sword Technique!"
"Come on, draw your sword!"
Shi Zhongyu's expression remained calm.
"Grandmaster, please forgive this disciple's insolence!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he lightly raised his long sword, the tip pointing diagonally at the ground, and used the Golden Crow Sword Technique that he had learned from Shi Xiaocui.
This sword technique was created to counter conventional martial arts; its sword strikes are extremely powerful and fierce.
The blade gleamed coldly as it clashed with Bai Zizai's longsword, producing a crisp metallic clang.
Bai Ziyi immediately sensed the difference in the jade within the stone upon contact.
His swordsmanship was fierce and flawless; he couldn't find the slightest flaw.
Shi Zhongyu had no idea what Bai Zizai was thinking; once he drew his sword, he didn't stop.
With each flip of the iron sword in his hand, he brought the ferocity of the Golden Crow Sword Technique to its fullest extent.
The Golden Crow Saber Technique has no unnecessary frills; every move is specifically designed to counter the Snow Mountain Sword Technique.
Bai Zizai became increasingly frustrated as the fight progressed. Every time he used a new move, Shi Zhongyu would counter it with a different sword technique.
Moreover, every cut struck his vital points.
"Bai Zizai, weren't you supposed to be so capable? How come you're getting completely dominated by that kid Shi?"
Seeing that Shi Zhongyu had the upper hand, Shi Xiaocui spoke with a hint of relief.
"Don't get cocky!"
Bai Zizai shouted angrily, but then fought more and more frantically, wielding his long sword in a dense and impenetrable manner, trying to suppress Shi Zhongyu.
However, just like before, no matter how he changed his moves, Shi Zhongyu easily dismantled them with his Golden Crow Saber Technique.
Throughout the entire process, Shi Zhongyu remained calm and unhurried, his iron knife precisely dodging every attack, and instead using the opponent's sword moves to launch counterattacks.
After dozens of rounds, Bai Zizai's breathing became erratic, and fine sweat beaded on his forehead.
He never imagined that his Snow Mountain Sword Technique, which he had cultivated for many years, would be so thoroughly suppressed by the Golden Crow Saber Technique, which his wife had researched.
Both sides sparred with swords, and both tacitly refrained from using too much internal energy.
After thirty moves, Shi Zhongyu caught his master's disordered breathing and knocked the long sword from his master's hand with a clang.
"Grandmaster, you flatter me!"
Bai Zizai stood there, looking completely incredulous.
He actually lost?
Bai Zizai's face flushed red, and he clenched his fists tightly.
Shi Xiaocui stepped forward.
"What's wrong? Can't accept defeat?"
She felt extremely happy.
However, she did not provoke Bai Zizai excessively.
Upon hearing Shi Xiaocui's words, Bai Ziyi immediately jumped up in anger.
"What do I have to lose?"
"I lost!"
"But martial arts aren't just about swords and sabers. Kid, do you dare to test your internal strength against me?"
Shi Zhongyu shook his head, choosing to refuse.
"Grandmaster, let's stop competing. This is enough!"
Bai Zizai got anxious.
"I told you to compete, so let's compete!"
As he spoke, he took the initiative and struck Shi Zhongyu with a palm.
Shi Zhongyu subconsciously raised his hand, his inner strength circulated automatically, and his whole body exuded boundless power.
boom!
Bai Zizai was sent flying backwards, crashing hard into a tree in the valley.
"grandfather!"
Bai Axiu cried out in surprise and ran over immediately.
"Old man!"
Shi Xiaocui's heart tightened, and she quickly went over.
The two approached Bai Zizai and inquired about his physical condition with concern.
They all breathed a sigh of relief after discovering that Bai Zizai was only slightly agitated and not seriously injured.
Shi Xiaocui looked at Bai Zizai, intending to say a few words, but ultimately decided not to provoke him further.
Bai Zizai noticed Shi Xiaocui, and he couldn't save face.
"I...I lost. This kid isn't human, he's a psychopath!"
He considered himself to have the best internal strength, but he was sent flying by this kid the moment he met him.
As Bai Zizai spoke, he turned to look at Shi Zhongyu, his face filled with existential skepticism.
"If I didn't know your background, I'd really suspect you started practicing martial arts from the womb!"
Bai Zizai knew that Shi Zhongyu possessed the Northern Darkness Divine Art, and after a moment, he sighed.
"The Northern Darkness Divine Art, truly worthy of its name!"
"From this day forward, you are the leader of the Snow Mountain Sect!"
As Bai Zizai spoke, he stood up and looked at Shi Xiaocui.
Are you satisfied now?
Shi Xiaocui moved her lips and looked at Shi Zhongyu.
Shi Zhongyu quickly said, "Grandmaster, I have no interest in the position of sect leader. I need to practice my skills regularly. It would be better if you became the sect leader!"
Bai Zizai snorted coldly.
"Whoever wants to be the sect leader can be; I won't!"
Shi Zhongyu looked at Granny Shi.
Shi Xiaocui reached out and grabbed Bai Zizai's ear!
"Are you trying to use sect affairs to keep Yu'er occupied? He has to practice martial arts every day, how can he have time to deal with sect matters?"
"You'd better just stick to being the sect leader!"
"Anyway, Yu'er won't take it!"
Shi Zhongyu nodded repeatedly and joined in the persuasion.
"Grandmaster, please let me take the position of sect leader for now!"
"By the way, Grandmaster, Grandmother, I want to go down the mountain!"
Shi Xiaocui asked in surprise, "Going down the mountain?"
Shi Zhongyu hummed in agreement.
"I've been practicing martial arts on this mountain for years, and I'm starting to miss going back to see my parents!"
Over the years, Min Rou has consistently written to him to express her concern.
Min Rou told him to practice his skills diligently in the sect, listen to his master, and not cause trouble.
Of course, if you have any grievances, you can talk to her about them...
The letter was filled with a mother's longing for her son.
In addition, it was almost time for Zhang San and Li Si to arrive, so he needed to go to the Central Plains to make preparations.
In addition, he should also visit his younger brother, Shi Zhongjian.
The skill that Xie Yanke had his younger brother practice, which seemed to balance Yin and Yang, was actually extremely risky.
If you're not careful, you could go berserk and die.
He also needs to deal with this matter.
Before Bai Zizai could speak, Shi Xiaocui said, "You should go down the mountain to see your parents. They'll be so happy to see you like this."
"Let's go back and talk about it slowly!"
As Shi Xiaocui spoke, she grabbed Bai Zizai. This time, Bai Zizai didn't dare to shake her off at all, but let Shi Xiaocui lead him.
He followed Shi Xiaocui's every step.
Bai Axiu stood behind Shi Zhongyu, gazing at her grandparents' harmonious appearance, and said softly, "Senior brother, thanks to you this time, I think my grandfather and grandmother won't quarrel anymore!"
