"Using water to control the sword, the Sword Heart Technique's Scatter Word Formula …"
Lin Muyu quickly calmed the surging qi and blood caused by the excessive consumption of true energy, and said with a smile, "Xiao Xi, what do you think of this move? Is it flashy enough?"
Tang Xiaoxi was almost petrified. After a while, she blinked her eyes and said, "So … so powerful …"
These words made Lin Muyu's confidence almost explode. She said with a smile, "Of course. What should I call this move?"
Tang Xiaoxi said, "I've seen experts of the Imperial Sword Technique use the Innumerable Sword Formula. It's similar, but this move of yours uses the law of water. Why don't we call it Innumerable Sword Absolute Ice?"
"Mm, good name!"
"Anything else?" Tang Xiaoxi asked weakly.
"There's still one last move, and it's also the move with the most explosive power."
"Mm, show it to me!"
"Alright!"
…
Lin Muyu muttered to himself. Immediately, the Burning Prairie Sword flew up with a 'swoosh' and stood vertically in front of him. He opened his palms and wisps of True Dragon Primary Fire condensed between his fingers, slowly transforming into a flaming chain between his palms and the blade of the sword. After activating the rotational force, the Burning Prairie Sword slowly rotated on its axis, while the wisps of True Dragon Primary Fire in his palms spiraled around the blade of the sword like a long dragon. With a dragon's roar, Lin Muyu shouted, "Go!"
"Whoosh!"
The longsword whistled through the air, carrying with it a vast spiral of fire. The heat spewed out, and the pond water to the side sizzled. Lin Muyu's target was a huge rock with a diameter of at least five meters, and it was an extremely hard black rock!
"Peng!"
Amidst the loud noise, rocks flew everywhere. Lin Muyu opened his hand, and the wall of the gourd came out of his body, protecting him and Tang Xiaoxi. The impact of this blow swept through the entire courtyard, and the guards outside couldn't help but knock on the door, "Princess, there's such a big commotion inside, are you alright?"
"I'm fine, don't come in." Tang Xiaoxi said loudly.
"Yes, Princess!"
…
"Controlling the sword with fire." Lin Muyu calmed herself down and said faintly, "Flame is the source of power. Together with the piercing effect of the whirlwind, this strike's penetrative power and power are the strongest among all of my moves. Its weakness is the same as Gale Break, the charging time is too long. It's said that the speed at which battle energy is condensed is faster. Maybe when I step into the Heaven Realm and understand battle energy, I can improve this move. Xiao Xi, what do you think of this move? What's a good name?"
Tang Xiaoxi became even more restless. Her face was roasted red by the flames as she said, "I vaguely heard the roar of a dragon just now. Mu, why is there dragon force in this move of yours? Is it … a move cultivated from the true dragon bone I gave you last time?"
"Yeah, Xiao Xi is so smart!"
"So that's how it is. Let's call it Dragon Flame Spiral Break. This style looks really good!"
"En."
Lin Muyu stood proudly in the courtyard. The sword elder had taught him the Heart of the Sword and Controlling the Sword with Heart, so he could be considered as his sword art's first teacher. However, the Four Elemental Sword Control Law that he had comprehended in the past few days had surpassed his teacher. Perhaps it could be said that he already had the demeanor of a transcendent master.
Tang Xiaoxi, on the other hand, was sullen.
"What's wrong, Xiao Xi?" He asked with concern.
Tang Xiaoxi raised her head and looked at him with a pair of starry eyes. She said, "When we were in Cathaya City, you were still so weak and needed my protection. But after we came to Lanyan City, Mu has completely surpassed me. My realm is already far inferior to yours …"
"It's okay, I can protect you in the future!" He smiled brightly.
Tang Xiaoxi's heart warmed and she nodded happily. However, she couldn't show it too obviously, so she pouted and said, "Mu, are you about to step into the Heaven Realm?"
"My current cultivation is Battle-Saint, just one step away, but I still can't break through." Lin Muyu shook her head and said, "I probably need another opportunity. I plan to find a day to cultivate in the Dragon Seeking Forest. If I meet a suitable spirit beast, it can help me break through and step into the Heaven Realm!"
"Yes, I want to go with you! Also, you must remember our promise. The Shang Xi Festival will be held three days later. This is the invitation, you must come! "
"Okay!"
After sending off Tang Xiaoxi, Lin Muyu secretly let out a sigh of relief. Xiao Xi was approachable, smart, and cute. She was definitely a very good girl, but his status was too different from hers. Moreover, he was currently a wanted criminal. He had a deep feeling that she was out of his league. He didn't want to be a gigolo. Even if he had any status in this world, he had to rely on his own fists to make a name for himself!
He didn't want to think about anything else and obediently went to forge a new sword. This could be considered as his tuition fee for the sword elder, right?
After all, the sword elder was a businessman. He definitely wouldn't lose out on this point.
… …
At night, the stars shone brightly.
The imperial army camp was brightly lit. The cavalry galloped in front of the central army tent. The ten chiliarchs on duty at night had already led their subordinates to patrol the capital.
In the central tent, Feng Jixing was holding an oil lamp and holding a bamboo scroll in his hand. On the bottom of the scroll, there were four big words, "Seven Scrolls of Victorious Tactics". This was the military strategy passed down from generation to generation by the founding hero of the Great Qin Empire, Xiang Wentian, who was known as the "God of War". Every general of the empire would study the Seven Scrolls of Victorious Tactics, but it was unknown how many people could truly comprehend the profound meaning within.
"Rustle …"
The curtain was lifted and a Captaincy cupped his fists and said, "Lord Commander, the people from the Military Police Battalion have arrived."
"Military Police Battalion?" Feng Jixing raised his head and looked. The light from the oil lamp flickered slightly, illuminating his handsome face. "What are the people from the Military Police Battalion doing at the Forbidden Army? Who led them?"
"It's the commander of the Military Police Battalion, Xiang Yu."
"Xiang Yu?"
Feng Jixing frowned and stood up. He brushed his battle robe and said, "Follow me to welcome them."
"Yes!"
Outside the tent, Xiang Yu walked over with dozens of Military Police Battalion generals. From afar, he cupped his fists and said with a smile, "Brother Feng, long time no see. You are still as handsome as ever!"
Feng Jixing smiled and cupped his fists and said, "Subordinate Feng Jixing greets Lord Xiang Yu!"
Xiang Yu smiled and said, "You and I are both commanders of the empire. There is no need to be so formal!"
Even so, Feng Jixing still gave a military salute. Although the total number of Military Police Battalion was only 2,000 people, they had the most power in the imperial army. Even he, the commander of the 30,000 imperial army, had to be respectful to Xiang Yu!
"I wonder what important matter Lord Xiang Yu has come to the imperial army camp this time?" Feng Jixing asked.
Xiang Yu laughed and said, "It's a small matter. Let's talk inside the tent!"
"Yes!"
After entering the Imperial army tent, Xiang Yu sat down on the commander's seat without a trace of politeness. The high-ranking Imperial Army generals immediately glared at him. Luo Lie had already placed his palm on the hilt of his sword, but Feng Jixing stopped him with a stern look. Xiang Yu naturally had his reasons for being so arrogant. He had the right to be so.
Pressing his hand on the table, Xiang Yu looked at the Seven Victorious Scrolls next to the oil lamp and couldn't help but laugh. "General Feng is studying the military books passed down by our ancestors?"
"Yes." Feng Jixing smiled respectfully and said, "I can only study one or two of them. This general is slow-witted and cannot completely understand the essence of the war god."
"General Feng is too modest."
Xiang Yu smiled coldly and said, "General Feng should have heard of the murder of Cathaya City's Hua Tian, right?"
"Yes."
"The murderer, Lin Muyu, is said to have infiltrated Lanyan City."
"Oh? What do you mean, milord? "
Xiang Yu waved his hand lightly and said with a smile, "Our military police camp is short on manpower and cannot search the entire city for Lin Muyu. That is why we have come to the Imperial Army camp to ask General Feng to act on our behalf. The Imperial Army of thirty thousand is enough to turn the imperial capital upside down to capture Lin Muyu."
Feng Jixing's heart trembled. He cupped his hands and said, "Milord, please forgive this general for being powerless."
"Why?"
"Lanyan City is the imperial capital, the city of true dragons. If we wish to search the entire city for Lin Muyu, we must have His Majesty's handwritten decree. Otherwise, this general cannot comply. The Imperial Army's mission is to protect the imperial city, not to capture felons."
Feng Jixing said it straightforwardly, without the slightest intention of giving in.
Xiang Yu slowly rose to his feet and looked at him coldly. "General Feng has reminded me that I must go to Ze Tian Temple to have an audience with His Majesty first before I can search for the criminal!"
Feng Jixing smiled faintly. "Yes, milord, you have come in vain."
Xiang Yu's expression was cold. He walked down from the commander's seat and stepped on the dark blue carpet of the central army tent. He looked at Feng Jixing with a cold gaze and said with a smile, "How can I come in vain? I heard that General Feng has studied ancestor Xiang Wentian's Wind Saber Technique for many years and is known as the strongest master of Wind Saber Technique in the empire. I happen to be free today. Can you enlighten me? "
Feng Jixing was stunned. "This general dares not fight with you, milord."
"It's okay. It's just a sparring session!"
Xiang Yu raised his hand and pulled out a saber from his subordinate's waist. He said with a smile, "Xiang Yu is not good at using a saber and is not qualified to use one. Is it okay for me to borrow this subordinate's saber, General Feng?"
Feng Jixing's heart trembled. He took the saber from his subordinate and cupped his hands and said, "Milord, we won't overdo it!"
"Okay!"
… …
Slowly spreading his battle qi, Xiang Yu's battle robe fluttered behind him and the light on the saber soared. He was a powerhouse who had stepped into the second layer of Heaven Realm. Naturally, his aura was much stronger than Feng Jixing, a first layer Heaven Realm powerhouse. With a slight tremble of the saber, he had already launched an attack. The blade cut through the air fiercely. After five consecutive slashes, the flames all over his body soared. The first-grade martial soul, Trampling Fire Tiger, was released. This was the legendary martial soul that Xiang Wentian once possessed, Mighty Battle Qi!
"Dang dang dang …"
Sparks splashed. Feng Jixing blocked several times in a row and lowered his feet to sweep out.
Xiang Yu leaped up to avoid this attack. In the air, the sharp claws of the Trampling Fire Tiger fused with the saber, and a powerful and heavy saber slashed toward Feng Jixing's neck.
Feng Jixing's movement technique was excellent. As soon as the saber hilt touched the ground, he used the force to slide half a meter and soared into the sky with his battle boots covered in battle qi!
"Bang!"
With a heavy blow, Xiang Yu's fist landed on Feng Jixing's battle boots. Battle qi surged and the wind formed a shock wave, causing the surrounding generals to retreat several steps.
Feng Jixing looked up at the sky, purple battle qi all over his body. His second-grade martial soul, Purple Electric Flame Wolf, had already been released, and his eyes were filled with an unyielding fighting spirit.
"Again!"
Xiang Yu stayed in the air for a few seconds, then suddenly waved his long saber and slashed down again, using the same Windwalking Saber Technique.
"Dang dang dang …"
Another series of collisions occurred. Feng Jixing was forced to retreat again and again. Suddenly, a cold light was pressed against his neck. Behind him was a pillar of the tent, and there was no way to retreat.
The saber in Xiang Yu's hand was pressed straight against Feng Jixing's neck, his face brimming with a smile. "It seems that General Feng's Windwalking Saber Technique has not been cultivated to perfection!"
With that said, he withdrew his saber and said, "Since the Imperial Guard is unwilling to move out to search for Lin Muyu, then it's a good thing the Military Police Battalion came."
… …
Watching Xiang Yu's receding figure, Feng Jixing let out a long sigh of relief.
At the side, Luo Lie said, "Commander, with your saber cultivation, you shouldn't have been subdued by Xiang Yu's clumsy move just now!"
Feng Jixing's expression was complicated. He slowly shook his head and said, "A loss is a loss, there's no need to say anything more. Xiang Yu … he's someone we can't afford to offend. Even Xiang Yu has begun to interfere in this matter. Yu is becoming more and more dangerous. Immediately send Yu Yu's letter to Silver Fir City and have the people there search for evidence faster. Otherwise, we won't be able to prove Yu's innocence."
"Yes!"
