Age of Heroes (Age of Heroes Chronicles) Chapter 311: Conflict in the waterfall peak (1)

'Teacher, wake up. Wake up' Arial open his eyes and he saw Xiyun.

He already notices the presence of Xiyun even before he opens his eyes so it did not co as a shock but truthfully Arial wanted to rest a little bit more.

The Waterfall Peak is peaceful and a very tranquil place that even Arial, the hardworking lord of Arrandy is tempted to just sleep all day, enjoying himself on the bed.

'Xiyun.'

'Teacher' she said bowing slightly. She is still wearing the pink dress and there is so blushing on her cheeks.

She must not be accustod of waking a man from sleep. On second thought, no maiden ever does.

'Did you sleep well last night, Xiyun?'

'I didn't have to teacher. My body is overflowing with energy.'

Arial smile. It is within Arial expectation. His technique is after all what made him the monster he is today.

'That is good. What did I say? Do you believe now?'

'Yes teacher. I will keep practicing the cultivation technique diligently and I never will doubt teacher words again.'

'Good.' Arial then get up from his bed.

'Bring the towel.'

'Yes teacher.'

There is bath in the house so Arial is going to bathe first. Who created it and why, is beyond Arial understanding but who is he to complain when there is such a convenient facility?

'I will prepare so snacks and tea for teacher.' Xiyun said excitedly

'Do it if you want to.'

She nodded. Arial then went to clean himself up. After choosing his clothes he went to the kitchen.

'Deer at' Arial said.

'Amazing teacher. How did you know?'

'I have an amazing sense of sll.' And Arial grins a little. Another one of his new talents, no doubts courtesy of Gaveror.

Xiyun is standing while; Arial is sitting and was just about to eat the at. He is puzzled by Xiyun behavior.

This is not the court neither is Xiyun his courtier or slave so why is she standing? Then he said

'Why are you standing?'

'It is disrespectful to eat while the teacher is eating.' She explained. Arial looking at Xiyun sighed. Is this one of the martial art world custom?

'I allow it. Co on. Sit. Eat.'

Xiyun then also hesitantly sit down while looking at Arial expression and then confident her teacher ant what he said, she began eating with Arial.

'Hmm. Delicious. You are a good cook, Xiyun.' Arial complinted Xiyun cooking.

Arial in his castle has his own cook and true, his cook also cooks many great dishes but Xiyun cooking has that hint of amateurism but still her cooking has that holy feeling.

'Teacher, my task in Erishan is always cooking, cleaning and finding and gathering herbs. So this is nothing.'

'Is that so? Hmm. It seems Erishan has lost a great cook' and Xiyun chuckled slightly.

Arial also chuckle a bit. It was like a morning with serenity feelings and calm atmosphere and with the birds chirping outside, Arial is reminded of his wife.

His lovely Helia. And at night seeing the stars he is then reminded of his star, Velamina. Arial is enjoying the food yet his mind wander soplace else.

But Xiyun could see there is sothing on her teacher minds. But she did not dare presu.

Then Xiyun ask.

'Teacher'

'Yes, What?' Arial said, startled a bit, as he is brought back to the dining table.

'Can you teach sword technique?'

'Sword technique? ... No.'

'Eh, why?'

'Because you are not ready. Our school technique requires high level internal energy to execute even one of my swords techniques. Rember this, and keep this a secret. Our school only has one sword style.'

Xiyun was shocked but then she asked

'One sword style? Wouldn't that be disadvantageous?'

'No. Do not worry. No one can defeat my sword style.' Arial said, clearly proud and confident of his created technique.

'My sword style is Heaven Punishnt Style. I daresay there is no one in any of the school could compare to my sword style.'

Arial know this because he has combined every school technique that he had mastered in this one style, ways to counter it and etcetera. (Not all technique from the schools. Only those that he witnesses and already learned)

But what Arial didn't know how effective it will be against the Four Immortals. Which is why every day he practices it.

He wanted to try it against those Four Immortals

'So, I have to wait three years before I learn even one of the sword styles?' Arial laughed a bit and then he said

'I can teach you so technique. But choose. One technique that could defeat any enemies you encounter or. a multiple technique that maybe or maybe not can overpowered your opponent. One needs three years for you to be patient. Another, you can learn today. Maybe in three years you will then master one hundred sword techniques. But by then I will not teach you the Heaven Punishnt Style.'

Xiyun face beco complicated and then helplessly she asked

'Teacher, why make choose?' Arial smiles and then he said

'In life there is always a choice. There is a choice to keep walking or stay in place. There is a choice in waking up and keep sleeping. Hahaha' he laughs at his own joke. Xiyun was clearly not pleased.

Then Arial said

'Now it's your ti to choose. Three years of waiting or right now?'

Xiyun look at her at and sipped her water and after deciding she tell her decision to Arial.

'IIwill wait three years' teacher.'

'Hahaha. Wise choice. Wise choice'

That is how they spend their morning.

In the afternoon, both of them train. Then suddenly as they were training in the open space of the house Arial notices a group of people is coming towards the vicinity of his house.

'Open your eyes Xiyun. It seems a group of people is coming to the house.' Arial get up from his cross legged position and open his door.

There he sees a hundred of Erishan disciple, a few of Yilin monk, and Sun Moon Sect disciples and even Lishan disciples and there are other sect and schools that is behind them.
