Chapter 96: Teammates
“Sword Dao, Sword Dao...”
“Since it’s called Dao, it naturally needs to follow certain rules.”
“The three core elents of a Sword Dao are: strength, speed, and technique. Your sword technique only focuses on strength. Although your speed isn’t slow, there are too many unreasonable aspects with the way you slash your sword. There’s no technique to speak of.”
...
In the clearing in Lanruo Temple.
Yan Chixia stood aside with the brass sword in hand and “taught” Ji Ye, who was waving the Black Serpent Sword.
It couldn’t be helped. He refused to believe that the gray wolf nad Blondie was reared by Ji Ye.
However, this changed after Ji Ye brought him out of Lanruo Temple where he saw the wolf pack outside bowing down to him. The black-eyed alpha wolf that Ji Ye called a “husky” whimpered and rubbed against Ji Ye’s leg, as if it was crying about the tragic fate of its companion.
In such a situation, Yan Chixia had no choice. He could only compensate him by guiding him in perfecting the Demon Slaying Sword Art.
“Thus a superior man may be imposed on by what seems to be as it ought to be!”
Ji Ye, who heard Yan Chixia impart Sword Dao to him, could not help but feel a little guilty.
However, it was a world of providence after all. If he missed this opportunity, it was difficult to say when he could obtain the guidance of a “number one” swordsman like Yan Chixia!
However, it seed that it was impossible to directly convert Honor points into skills to obtain the guidance of heroes in this world of providence.
It was also because of this that he had to truly understand and master Yan Chixia’s teachings with his own abilities.
Thankfully, before entering the City of Humans, he had already asked Wu Song about his martial arts, movent techniques, and footwork, thus reaching a sufficient realm.
As a result, there were no problems with his basic skills. All he lacked was technique when using a sword.
“That’s right. You understood it very quickly!”
Even Yan Chixia was sowhat surprised by Ji Ye’s perceptivity. He was forced to teach him, but the more he taught him, the more efforts he placed into his teaching.
Of course, there was a reason for this. It was also because when he returned with the wolf last night, he realized that this young man was sending the female ghost nad Nie Xiaoqian away.
...
“That fast?”
As Yan Chixia narrowed his eyes and mumbled, he heard the young man admonish the female ghost loudly. He said that he had carried her back indoors because she had been playing the zither by the lake in the evening while wearing too little. He was afraid that she would catch a cold.
He didn’t have any improper thoughts. Now that she had ward up, it was impolite of her not to leave. Therefore, he chased the female ghost out.
“I misunderstood this kid?”
Yan Chixia’s eyes were sharp. He could tell that the female ghost hadn’t absorbed any Yang energy. Theoretically, since he had just left, the thousand-year-old tree demon should have taken action if anything happened!
“Practice diligently... Rember, those who use swords must not be overly impulsive. You have to cultivate a calm mind. For example, I’ve been calming my mind for more than two decades!”
Yan Chixia, who snapped out of his montary daze, continued teaching Ji Ye.
...
Ji Ye spent most of the day practicing his swordplay with Yan Chixia.
However, when it was almost evening, his swordplay practice was interrupted.
“Awoo!”
Wolf howls ca from the forest outside, implying that soone was approaching Lanruo Temple.
This was sothing Ji Ye specially instructed the wolf pack to do. Although ordinary wolves lacked intelligence, the alpha wolf he nad “Husky” had rather high intelligence. It was completely capable of taking on the job of a sentry.
Of course, to prevent the deaths of wolves like Chow Chow, Dober, and Sausage from happening again, he specially ordered the wolves to stay away from any intruders.
The reason why he delegated these wolves as sentries was naturally to wait for the other two “participants” from the sa faction to co.
This was because theoretically, most of the people who could enter the City of Humans were beta players. Based on their ages, they would be very familiar with A Chinese Ghost Story. Coming to Lanruo Temple was a certainty.
Of course, he could not eliminate the possibility of foreign players.
However, Ji Ye estimated that with a setting like A Chinese Ghost Story, the chances of having players of the sa country as him were higher.
However, even he could not help but feel surprised when he saw the two people Lu Zhishen brought into Lanruo Temple.
“Haha, Dear Brother Ji, nice to see you again!”
“We haven’t seen each other for days, right? I happened to bump into your wolf pack and I knew you were in there. It was just as I guessed!”
Fatty Zhu was wearing bloated runic armor that had been warped from his fats. He held a large bag that contained many things and smiled until his eyes were narrowed into slits.
“Brother Zhu, indeed. I’m afraid it’s been more than a year!”
Ji Ye smiled in response.
The red-haired hero nad Katarina who was with Fatty Zhu, she did not say a word as before.
However, her scarred eyes stayed on Yan Chixia for a while, seemingly curious.
...
“In fact, I thought you would bring Ning Caichen along.”
In a wing room, Ji Ye said to Fatty Zhu, who had put on his armor and was so heavy that his couch almost collapsed.
This was also why he wasn’t in a hurry to find Ning Caichen.
Since he and Lu Zhishen had appeared in Lanruo Temple, and the other two hadn’t arrived until this morning,
it was obvious that the other party had gone to seek out the protagonist, Ning Caichen.
Furthermore, as long as they weren’t stupid, they should protect Ning Caichen.
“Actually, we’ve already found Ning Caichen. Furthermore, we helped him fend off a few people who mistook him for a wanted criminal!”
Fatty Zhu narrowed his eyes and revealed a smug smile.
“Eh...”
Ji Ye waited for him to speak, knowing that there had to be sothing else.
“Then, we took him to the hotel owner and directly helped him get back his money. Then, we captured the wanted criminal, Liu Yidao, and got silver in exchange at the governnt office. We hired a carriage and two ‘bodyguards’ to escort him ho.
“He should be dozens of kiloters away by now!”
Fatty Zhu chuckled.
“That’s... brilliant!”
Ji Ye stared at Fatty in surprise.
He had originally wondered what to do with the other two if they really brought Ning Caichen back.
Did they have to arrange for people to specially protect this weak scholar at all tis to prevent him from being killed by the enemy?
Fatty Zhu’s way of handling things was really not bad.
Even if the other party knew about Ning Caichen, it would probably be difficult to pursue him!
“Hehe, how can I let him et my goddess?”
However, the deep smile on Fatty Zhu’s face suddenly turned wretched as he revealed a smug expression.
