Bai Ruanqing shook her head and shook her head. She hesitated for a moment before pushing open the door and walking out.
In the courtyard, Dan Xiaotian was still practicing his swordsmanship.
Dozens of meters away, Cao Chengli had a nut on his head, and his legs were trembling.
Whoosh!
A sword flew over, and in the next moment, it pierced into his head. It was just a few inches away from his nuts, and blood spurted out.
"I think I'm injured …" Cao Chengli said as he touched the blood on his head.
"It's fine. Who doesn't get hurt?" Dan Xiaotian replied with a smile. "Just continue holding your ground …"
"I'm really hurt …"
Before he could finish his words, another sword pierced through the same spot.
Seeing the fresh blood flowing from his face to the ground, Cao Chengli was frenzied. "Ah, I'm going to die …"
"Don't worry, I controlled my strength very well this time around. I only managed to pierce your scalp; I didn't injure your bones, let alone your head," Dan Xiaotian replied with a smile as he walked up to Zhang Xuan and began plucking out the swords one after another.
Sure enough, it was just as he said. His scalp was pierced, and his bones were not injured. Naturally, he would not die.
After his teacher's guidance, Zhang Xuan had been practicing his control over it, and he had already made some progress in it. Otherwise, he wouldn't have experimented on Cao Chengli's head.
Bai Ruanqing walked up to Dan Xiaotian and asked apologetically, "Junior Dan, can you impart your sword-throwing technique to me?"
Dan Xiaotian was taken aback for a moment before nodding. "Sure …"
He hadn't come into contact with his teacher for too long, but he could tell that his teacher was a magnanimous person. While he had named this swordsmanship after him, he had also imparted it to Cao Chengli. Elder Yi shouldn't hold it against him to impart it to another person.
He was such a knowledgeable and powerful person who regarded fame and fortune as dirt!
"This move is called 'Third Young Master's Sword'. You might not be able to learn it in one go, but you can first learn how to exert your strength and how to circulate your zhenqi so that you can execute the sword technique. As for the changes that occur in battle and how to deal with it, you can slowly study it later …"
Dan Xiaotian replied.
The Sword of the Third Young Master was a very simple technique to use, which was why he was able to learn it even though he was only a Great Sage.
Under Zhang Xuan's guidance, it did not take Bai Ruanqing more than three minutes to figure out what to do.
Whoosh!
With a flick of his wrist, his sword transformed into a streak of cold light, and in the next instant, it had already appeared on the wall beside Cao Chengli.
"Ah …"
Housekeeper Cao collapsed on the ground.
Given the speed and strength of this sword, if it really pierced his head, he might die immediately.
"Third Young Master's swordplay is one thing, but the moment it is used, it must be able to kill in a single strike. How to kill, how to predict the opponent's moves, how to find their flaws, these are the most important things …"
Seeing that Luo Ruoxin had learned how to exert her strength, Dan Xiaotian explained.
The reason why this move was so powerful was not because the sword was fast, but because it could predict the opponent's movements and attack the opponent's flaws.
This was the so-called inner force mental cultivation method. Throwing the sword was just a superficial move.
"How long will it take to learn it?"
Bai Ruanqing frowned upon hearing that Zhang Xuan was going to explain it to her.
There was still a huge group of people waiting for him in the Ethereal Hall, so it would not be appropriate for him to spend too much time studying them.
Dan Xiaotian scratched his head awkwardly. "If it's my teacher, I'll be able to finish the lecture within an hour. However, my comprehension of the subject isn't too comprehensive to begin with, so if I were to explain it to you, it might take me two days …"
Even though he had practiced this move for more than ten days and was starting to see some results, he was still far from being able to match up to his teacher.
They were not on the same level at all.
His teacher's explanation was profound and profound, and he was able to construct a huge system through simple logic. If he were to do it, things would not have been as easy.
"Forget it, I'll learn it later. I'll give it a try first …"
Bai Ruanqing shook her head and returned to her room.
She had always been an impatient person, or else she would not have earned the nickname 'Female Tyrannosaurus' in the first place. It was impossible for her to make others wait and spend several days learning a single sword art.
Hu!
Bai Ruanqing returned to the location of the duel, and she saw Tang Yan and the others still standing on the spot.
"I'm here. Let's continue!"
Bai Ruanqing said as she got into a stance.
Seeing that it had only taken Bai Ruanqing less than five minutes to finish the duel, a hint of doubt surfaced on Tang Yan's face. However, he still nodded in response. With a flick of his wrist, he executed the Immaculate Sword once more.
Countless sword slashes filled the air, reminiscent of a wisp of green smoke.
"Forget it, I'll give it a try then …"
Even though Bai Ruanqing had not learned the sword art's corresponding internal energy cultivation technique, she was a formidable swordsman to begin with. On top of that, her grandfather was an elder of the sect, so she had a deep understanding of many of the sword arts in the sect. As such, she had also explained the flaws and flaws of the Immaculate Sword to her.
It was just that she had not been able to decipher them previously.
It was just like how she knew that she could kill Mike Tyson with a single spear strike, but she might not be able to do so against him.
Previously, in order to decipher these flaws, she would have had to charge through the wisp of green smoke, and if she had really tried to do so, she would have been struck first and sustained severe injuries.
But now that she had the Immaculate Sword Art, things were different.
Without any hesitation, she flicked her wrist.
Hu!
The sword flew out of her hand.
"You threw your sword away?"
Tang Yan was taken aback. Just as he was about to block the flying sword, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head.
Sou!
A sword had pierced through his head, and his body swayed weakly before collapsing to the ground.
Dead!
"He died just like that?"
"Tang Yan was killed in a single slash?"
"That sword was really swift. I don't think there's such a sword art in the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion, right?"
"I've never heard of it before either. Not only that, I don't think I've seen the move that killed us before either …"
…
A huge commotion broke out in the surroundings.
"He succeeded?"
The crowd was rendered speechless, and Bai Ruanqing leaped in shock.
She had only learned the Immaculate Sword Art for a few minutes, so she had only thought that she could scare Tang Yan a little and force him to retract his strength. Who could have thought that she would be able to kill Tang Yan with just a single slash?
This was too formidable!
"Let's continue!"
Bai Ruanqing's eyes glowed in excitement as she regained her confidence. She continued challenging the sixth disciple.
…
In the Elder's Residence …
"How did it go?"
Elder Bai Ye looked at Bai Feng.
"I followed Young Mistress, and I saw her heading to the residence of an inner disciple. However, the inner disciple's name isn't Zhang Xuan but … Dan Xiaotian!"
Bai Feng passed a jade token over. "This is his information!"
"Dan Xiaotian?" Perplexed, Elder Bai Ye quickly scanned through the information and said, "I know who he is. Elder Lu Yun invited him over, and he reported the matter to me during the Elder Council. I didn't attend the meeting, but I've seen the minutes of the meeting. Despite being only at Ancient Sage 1-dan, he was able to extend his Sword Intent to 499 meters, a step away from becoming a Sword God! "
"It's him … Based on my investigation, he brought a friend into the sect as well. That friend of his goes by the name of Zhang Xuan, but his cultivation is only at Dimension Shatterer realm primary stage."
Bai Feng passed another set of information over.
Given Elder Bai Ye's standing, it was not too difficult for him to investigate a person.
Zhang Xuan had followed Dan Xiaotian into the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion as a subordinate. Even though it had not been too long since he had arrived, his name was still recorded in the records.
"That should be him …" Elder Bai Ye nodded in agreement. He had no idea why there was such a discrepancy between the information recorded and the real Dan Xiaotian, but the rest of the information seemed to fit together.
Most likely, it was the same person.
"The reason why Ruanqing went to Dan Xiaotian's residence is probably to look for Zhang Xuan … Let's continue looking into the matter. Zhang Xuan isn't an inner disciple, but he's impersonating one. I fear that he might be up to no good!"
Elder Bai Ye said.
"Yes!" Bai Feng rose to his feet, but just as he was about to leave, an elder suddenly rushed in and said, "Elder Bai Ye, we're glad that you have recovered from your injuries, but you should at least keep your granddaughter in check!"
"Granddaughter? What's wrong? "
Elder Bai Ye was taken aback.
"Don't feign ignorance here. Ever since she entered the core disciples' Ethereal Hall, she has been challenging opponents from the sixteenth place onward. She has defeated all of them with a single move, and she has already made her way to the top five!"
The elder said with a wave of his hand.
"She has already made it to the top five?"
Elder Bai Ye and Bai Feng were stunned.
They were well aware of Bai Ruanqing's strength, and it was already very difficult for her to make it to the top seventeenth place.
How was that possible?
"This is a recording of her battle. Take a look for yourself!"
The elder said as he tossed a Record Crystal over.
Elder Bai Ye quickly tapped on it and took a look.
He saw Bai Ruanqing slaughtering the core disciples with a single move, leaving them doubting the meaning of life.
His granddaughter only had two moves in her arsenal. One was a horizontal slash, and the other was a toss. As long as one was struck by it, their head would surely fall to the ground.
These two moves were incredibly profound … Who did she learn them from?
"It's … It's his ultimate move!"
Bai Feng narrowed his eyes in astonishment.
"Who?"
Elder Bai Ye asked.
Bai Feng quickly sent a telepathic message over. "This horizontal slash was executed by I Am Low Profile. I've studied it before, and I've even explained it to Milady. It's just that I didn't think that she would be able to execute it in such a profound manner. It feels like …"
"What do you feel?"
"It feels like I Am Low Profile is the one who executed it!"
Bai Feng said.
There was no one in the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion who did not know of I Am Low Profile. Even though Elder Bai Ye was still injured, he had long heard of the matter regarding his granddaughter being slain twice and his old servant being killed once.
As one of the Three Grand Elders of the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion, how could he possibly not pay attention to the matter?
Yet, the swordsmanship that his granddaughter executed was actually the same as his …
"You mean to say that I Am Low Profile imparted Ruanqing's swordsmanship to her before challenging the core disciples?"
Elder Bai Ye narrowed his eyes in realization.
There was no other explanation other than that.
"That's right!"
Bai Feng nodded.
"The entire sect is looking for I Am Low Profile, but he imparted Ruanqing's swordsmanship to her and challenged the core disciples … Interesting, interesting!"
With a bitter smile, Elder Bai Ye turned to Zhang Xuan and asked, "Who do you think that fellow is?"
"I'm not too sure …" Bai Feng shook his head.
Bai Feng shook his head. Halfway through his words, he suddenly widened his eyes in shock. Staring at the Old Master before him, his lips began quivering uncontrollably. "Old Master, do you suspect that it's … Zhang Xuan?"
"Other than him …"
Elder Bai Ye nodded. "Who else could it be?"
