Ye Jingtang nodded. “That shouldn’t be a big problem.”
Liu Qiansheng continued, “1 won’t teach my fist techniques to diocre people. 1 will only pass them on to the Grandmasters of the Imperial Court. The Imperial Court also has to arrest Jiang Zhahu and bring him to justice. He smuggles salt and iron at the border, so he should be punished for his cri.”
Ye Jingtang stood a little straighter. He didn’t expect Liu Qiansheng to want to use the Imperial Court to take revenge. “If there’s a chance, the Imperial Court will destroy Jiang Zhahu without you saying anything. But it’s too easy to escape from Liang Province, and it won’t be easy to capture Jiang Zhahu. The Imperial Court can only do its best.”
Liu Qiansheng said, “Sir Ye, your predictions are godlike, and your eyes and ears reach everywhere. It’s not difficult for you to find Jiang Zhahu. In terms of talent, you’re not necessarily weaker than Jiang Zhahu. As long as you are sincere and are willing to investigate Jiang Zhahu, this matter is really not difficult.”
Ye Jingtang thought about it carefully. “I will do my best. Tell about the Prince of Wu’s case first. You can give your martial arts to the Imperial Court later.”

?
Qiu Tianhe knew that this kid didn’t know the ways of the world at all and wouldn’t save face for an elder like him.
But Qiu Tianhe’s comprehension ability was not bad, and he had decades of Jianghu experience, so he wouldn’t be left too far behind.
Qiu Tianhe nodded thoughtfully. His gaze was deep, as if he was studying sothing exquisite. But in fact, he was stalling for ti. After deducing the hidden qi circulation thod in his mind, he turned around and raised one hand in front of him. “This technique is quite exquisite. It’s worthy of the reputation of the Eight Chiefs.”
Ye Jingtang stood in front of him and placed his right hand on the back of Qiu Tianhe’s hand. Through the touch of the back of his hand, he could faintly feel the details of the qi flowing in the ridians of Qiu Tianhe’s palm and even his arm.
Liu Qiansheng stood with his hands behind his back and explained, “When a martial artist attacks, he must first circulate his qi. The Heaven Equaling Saber can only react when the opponent’s muscles exert force and there’s abnormal movent. This technique of mine is even faster. 1 can figure out my opponent’s moves even without them moving their hands and feet. Therefore, when Sir Ye fought against , your moves were always half a step slower than mine. The reason why you could win was purely because of your powerful physique.
“The disadvantage of this technique is that it’s close-range, but its advantage is the sa. When two fists et, there is not much room for changing moves. 1 can know in advance if my opponent changes moves, and I can change my moves to counter him. If my opponent changes moves again, I can still know in advance. This is the capital that I used to attain the title of Fist Chief.”
Ye Jingtang nodded thoughtfully and carefully sensed the feeling on the back of Qiu Tianhe’s hand. He moved first, but he realized that Qiu Tianhe’s palm was as light as a gauze, and he couldn’t touch it at all.
Qiu Tianhe imdiately struck back, and so did Ye Jingtang.
Whoosh!
A slight breeze stirred up in the cell. Ye Jingtang and Qiu Tianhe stood facing each other, their right hands against each other as they pushed their palms back and forth.
Because if you changed moves, I had to change moves. And if I changed, you had to change too. The result of pushing hands back and forth was that the speed was getting faster and faster. It depended on whose reaction couldn’t keep up first.
Qiu Tianhe’s talent was not bad, and he had extraordinary experience. He had developed his muscle instincts to deal with moves, so his countering speed wasn’t slow at all.
As for Ye Jingtang, although he relied purely on his reaction speed, he could circulate his qi so quickly that it was almost instantaneous. Just as Qiu Tianhe felt the fluctuation of Ye Jingtang’s qi in his ridians, the force was already coming, basically not giving him a chance to react.
Both of them felt pressure in their hearts. In order to prevent hurting their own person’s face, the two of them stopped fighting before they could decide the victor.
Ye Jingtang cupped his hands and praised, “This technique has the highest attainnts I’ve seen in my life. 1 have learned a lot from it.”
Qiu Tianhe also cupped his hands. “Elder Liu, you live up to your reputation. Just the mastery hidden in this technique is enough for to ponder for several years.”
Liu Qiansheng was indeed old, but martial arts was genuine. There was a hint of pride in his eyes as he sat down again. “This is the technique that I pondered over decades ago. I’ve road Jianghu for eighty years and have accumulated more than this. But after I teach everything, I will be of no value to the Imperial Court, so I have to teach slowly. I will only teach you my trump cards before 1 die. Sir Ye, I hope you don’t mind.”
Hearing this, Ye Jingtang didn’t say anything else.. He flew up with Qiu Tianhe and left the dungeon…
