Chapter 16 Learning from each other

Ling Xiao returned to his residence and smelled a seductive fragrance in the room, which seemed to arouse the appetite in people's hearts. He swallowed his saliva quietly and then looked towards the kitchen.

At this time, the maid Chunlan walked out of the inside with a plate of snacks. She was thinking about something, but there was a happy smile on her face. She suddenly saw Ling Xiao and was startled. She unconsciously loosened her hands and the plate was about to fall to the ground. Although there was a thick carpet on the ground, if it fell on it, the pastries would obviously not be eaten.

Before Chunlan screamed, Ling Xiao's body rushed over like a afterimage, and then barely caught it with his hands before the plate fell to the ground. What's amazing is that none of the pastries inside fell out.

Chunlan was so scared that her face turned pale, she covered her plump chest with one hand, and even forgot that her young master, who was not as good as hers, suddenly had such ability?

Ling Xiao twisted up a piece of pastry with his hands, threw it directly into his mouth, chewed it for a few bites, and shouted it was delicious.

Chunlan then realized and said with flushed cheeks: "Young Master, you, you haven't washed your hands yet."

Ling Xiao smiled embarrassedly. Perhaps because of the influence of Ling Xiao, his personality seemed to be gradually becoming cheerful. Just like today, if Ling Xiao was still in Shushan, he would rather retract his head than agree to the other party's challenge.

What is dignity? Dignity is a manifestation of strength! Without strength... where does dignity come from? But it seemed like an impulse at that time, I agreed directly. Now that I think about it, it is one aspect that I can't stand Ulanto's constant provocations, but in my bones, Ling Xiao's unyielding soul should still occupy a more important aspect!

Now Ling Xiao truly understood why Xie Xiaoyan was plotted against him at that time. It was because Ling Xiao originally loved Xie Xiaoyan deeply. Even though she knew that she had designed herself, she would rather go home with sadness without saying a word. She was hit by her father Ling Tianxiao with anger. Rather than saying that Ling Tianxiao failed in anger, it would be better to say that Ling Xiao was disheartened and wanted to die.

After Ling Xiao washed his hands, he realized that Chunlan and Qiuyue had learned that they were going to duel with Ulanto tomorrow, so they specially prepared a sumptuous dinner for themselves, and cheered Ling Xiao in this way.

The maids of noble families, especially those who are close-fitting maids like Chunlan and Qiuyue, are not qualified for everyone. They must be very outstanding girls. They have been trained since childhood. Whether it is piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, or martial arts, from astronomy, geography, and cooking skills, I dare not say that they are proficient in everything, but at least they can do it.

Most personal maids will basically become the master's concubines in the end. Therefore, many maids from large noble families are much better than those of ordinary wealthy families.

After dinner, Chunlan saw that Ling Xiao was in a good mood and said carefully: "Young Master, you are going to duel with that Ulanto tomorrow, right?"

Ling Xiao nodded, Chunlan said, "Qiuyue and I are both ninth-level sword servants. Do you want to... Let's fight with the young master? It's also possible that the young master has a clear understanding of tomorrow's competition."

Qiu Yue nodded and looked at Ling Xiao. It was obvious that both women felt that tomorrow's competition was not optimistic. The gap between the ninth-level sword servant and the fifth-level sword servant was not small, especially when I heard that Ulanto had already stepped into the ranks of sword masters with half his feet.

Chunlan's eyes suddenly fell on the sword that Ling Xiao brought back, lit up leisurely, and then said in surprise: "Young Master, where did you get this enchanting weapon? That's great! With it, I guess tomorrow's battle will be...uh." Chunlan realized that she was saying the wrong thing, so she covered her mouth suddenly, and then looked at Ling Xiao carefully.

Ling Xiao waved his hand: "I'm not that fragile, and you two don't have to be so careful when you speak in the future, okay?"

"Young Master is magnanimous!" Chunlan and Qiuyue stood up together to disrespect Ling Xiao, their eyes were a little red. They served the young master carefully for so many years, and finally got such a thoughtful sentence from the young master. Chunlan and Qiuyue felt that even if they died for Ling Xiao now, they would be willing to do so.

It is rare for aristocratic young masters to be as kind as Ling Xiao. Even if ordinary people don’t beat and scold the maids around them, they will at least protect the dignity of their nobles and will never say something like Ling Xiao.

Otherwise, so many wealthy and noble people tried their best to get a noble title. Nobles are not just a manifestation of honor, but a real privileged class!

Qiu Yue said softly from the side: "Young Master's enchanted sword seems to be of high level! Sister Chunlan, look, this crystal core should be of second level, right?" As he said that, he pointed to the light red magic beast crystal core that was firmly embedded on the handguard.

Chunlan came over and nodded and said, "It should be, this sword looks like..." Chunlan said, stopping her mouth and looking at Qiuyue. The two of them smiled in a sympathetic way. Both of them saw from the decoration of the scabbard that this should be the sword used by girls. They thought that the young master is excellent! Xie Xiaoyan has eyes but no beads, and now there are still girls who like the young master.

Ling Xiao had never fought with people in this world. Seeing that Chunlan was interested in fighting with him, he happily agreed. The three of them came to the yard. The sky was dark in the evening, and the stars had already begun to flash. Several street lights provided by the magic beast crystal core in the yard emitted a soft light.

Chunlan stood in the yard, holding a wooden sword for practice in her hand, looking at Ling Xiao with a smile. She would not have had such a chance to be arrogant in the past. Seeing that the young master seemed to have walked out of the storm, Chunlan and Qiuyue were much happier in their minds.

Chunlan put her hands together, put the wooden sword in her palm, and the sword tip was facing upwards, bent slightly towards Ling Xiao. This is the etiquette of the warriors' mutual exchanges.

Ling Xiao made the same gesture to return the gift.

At this time, Chunlan's temperament changed in vain, from a gentle and cheerful beautiful maid to a solemn and murderous chivalrous woman.

Knowing that the young master would not take action first, Chunlan shouted softly, "Young master, be careful!" Mu Jian made a "huh" sound that broke through the air and stabbed Ling Xiao's chest straight towards him.

Ling Xiao could see from Chunlan's starting move that Chunlan was practicing the family-borne law Hurricane Break. Although Chunlan's cultivation level was only a ninth-level sword servant, the mid-level sword skills of the heavenly level were indeed extraordinary. The wooden sword swept a shadow, and it looked like thousands of swords stabbed Ling Xiao's body at the same time.

Qiuyue, who was standing beside her, looked a little nervous. Her two fair and slender hands were clenched unconsciously, and her teeth bit her lower lip and stared at the two people in the field without blinking.

Ling Xiao shouted, "Good come!" The wooden sword in his hand knocked upwards, blocking Chunlan's wooden sword very accurately, and then he cut along Chunlan's wooden sword to her hand at a speed faster than Chunlan.

A brilliant flash burst out in Chunlan's eyes, and she burst out: "Okay!" Then she twisted her body to the left with a very light touch, left Ling Xiao's wooden sword, turned to Ling Xiao's side, and wiped the wooden sword in her hand like Ling Xiao's neck with her backhand.

Qiu Yue, who was beside her, couldn't help but open her mouth slightly, and she was about to scream nervously.

Ling Xiao's expression remained unchanged. He blocked the wooden sword in his hand, and a huge force came from knocking Ling Xiao away. Then the wooden sword in Chunlan's hand was like falling leaves rolled up by the wind, stabbing Ling Xiao's lower abdomen at an unruly angle!

This is the true essence of Hurricane Break, otherwise why would it be called a heaven-level martial art? Chunlan and Qiuyue and the other two are of average martial arts talent and are not of high level, but they have practiced hard and serious for so many years, and their strength should not be underestimated.

Speaking of which, it wasn't that I met Ling Xiao, a guy with countless sword skills in his head, even a first-level sword master who practiced sword skills below the heaven level, he might not be able to get it from the hands of the two women.

Ling Xiao smiled long, and with the power that Chunlan had just knocked him away, he suddenly took several steps back. He was about to hit the courtyard wall, but Chunlan's long sword rushed over like a wind.

Qiuyue over there was extremely nervous watching and even wanted to open her mouth to remind Chunlan, just at this moment...

Ling Xiao actually stepped backwards to the high courtyard wall, and walked upright for three or four steps, which made Qiu Yue stunned. With this force, Ling Xiao rushed towards Chunlan from a high place like a big bird, with an irresistible momentum, and the wooden sword in his hand roared towards Chunlan's head.

Chunlan was too fast and it was too late to close her momentum at this time. She was startled by the ferocious distortion on her face when Ling Xiao pounced down. Her eyes closed unconsciously. Even if it was a wooden sword, it would knock people out if they were hit hard.

After waiting for a long time, I heard Qiuyue’s surprise voice: “Wow, Master, you are so handsome!”

Chunlan quickly opened her eyes, but saw a wooden sword barely stopping on her head. Chunlan only realized that she was shocked and sweated in cold sweat. Her back was soaked, and her clothes were tightly attached to it, which was very uncomfortable.

Looking at the indifferent smile on Ling Xiao's face, Chunlan even wondered if she had read it wrong just now. The sword that was like a stroke of God was really used by the young master?

Ling Xiao put down the wooden sword, took the towel handed over by Qiuyue, wiped the sweat from his face, and breathed a sigh of relief, and said in his heart: If it weren't for the foundation of Shushan's many martial arts, and Chunlan had no practical experience, he would not be Chunlan's opponent in any case.

It seems that the sword technique in this world is not as bad as I imagined, and it has advantages. I have underestimated the people of the world. If I hadn't had the trick with Chunlan today, I might have really suffered from Ulanto's losses tomorrow.

Ling Xiao thought to himself, and a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. It seemed that he still had to speed up his sword skills.

Chunlan changed her clothes, her face was still rosy after movement, and her eyes stared at Ling Xiao: "Chunlan has never seen the sword skills and skills that the young master used today..."

Seeing Chunlan and Qiuyue’s intentional appearance, Ling Xiao knew what they were thinking, and said with a smile: “You two, practice Hurricane Breaking well, you can’t chew too much. Do you think the swordsmanship of the mid-level heaven level are bad? But what if I have time, I can pass it to you. I believe that it won’t take long to break through to the swordsman realm!”

"Ah... that's great!" Chunlan said in surprise, and then bowed to Qiuyue and Yingying: "Thank you, Master, you will definitely win tomorrow!"
