Chapter 261 - 261 No Better Time Than the Present
261 No Better Time Than the Present
Dong Xi immediately nodded in agreement. Dong Xi said, “Let’s start today?”
Gu Yao did not expect that the little girl would be so anxious. She looked at Dong Xi in surprise and said, “Thank you, I can’t ask for more!”
Although Dong Xi was a little out of place, she was very serious when it came to serious business.
Gu Yao said directly, “That day, I saw your sword technique. It seemed to be very powerful. After fighting with you, I also gained some insights. Although my control of sword technique is better than Junior Sister’s, in terms of understanding sword technique, Junior Sister’s is much better than mine.”
Gu Yao was very humble when she said that. After besides sword technique, Gu Yao was much better than Dong Xi.
Dong Xi also knew her own limits and said with a smile, “Senior Sister, you’re being humble. I admit that I saw Senior Brother Liang Yan’s all-out sword attack by chance, so I had some enlightenment. However, my understanding of swordsmanship is not very good. It can only be said to be relatively ordinary. The way of the sword is brilliant and emotionless, it is both for killing and protection… Cultivators are born from heaven and earth, and their clothes, food, shelter, and transportation all come from heaven and earth, including our spiritual energy. After casting the spell, we can only rely on the spiritual energy in our bodies to cast the Sword Art, and its power is naturally related to our cultivation, but if we borrow the power of heaven and earth…”
Dong Xi explained seriously while Gu Yao also listened to her seriously.
However… Although she could understand what Dong Xi was saying, there was still a problem. Borrowing power of heaven and earth… How could she borrow such power?
Dong Xi could understand her Senior Sister’s confusion. That day, Dong Xi happened to suddenly think of something and gained enlightenment.
Dong Xi did not know how to explain. After thinking for a moment, Dong Xi looked up at Gu Yao and said, “Senior Sister, since I can’t explain it well, let’s go out. I’ll show you. Maybe you’ll learn something?”
It was a great thing to have the opportunity to comprehend other people’s Sword Dao.
Many people pretended not to be dumb after they comprehended some secret technique. None of them were as foolish as Dong Xi, who wanted to teach it personally.
Gu Yao was a little touched. No wonder all the disciples of the Sword Sect liked Dong Xi. This girl was really likable.
The two people directly came to the deck. There were not many disciples on the deck. Most of them were cultivating in their rooms. Only some people who were a bit excited as it was their first time taking an airboat were looking around.
Dong Xi and Gu Yao were both famous people in the sect. One was the king of hard work, while the other was an icy beauty. No matter where they went, they would become the focus.
Everyone’s eyes occasionally swept over the two of them. Gu Yao frowned and looked at Dong Xi. She wanted to say something but was too embarrassed to.
Gu Yao thought that there were too many people, so she would come again next time.
However, Dong Xi did not care that others were secretly learning her technique. Despite learning this for a long time, all she could do is borrow the power of the wind. It would be impossible to copy her just by looking.
Dong Xi did not take out her long sword. She said, “Senior Sister, look at my feet.”
Gu Yao was a little confused. Wasn’t Dong Xi going to talk about sword techniques?
Before Gu Yao could figure it out, Dong Xi suddenly moved. She directly jumped up to the second floor and then gently fell down.
It looked no different from an ordinary movement technique. Dong Xi said, “Senior Sister, do you understand?”
Gu Yao’s face was solemn.
Dong Xi looked at Gu Yao and knew that she did not understand anything. She sighed and took out her wooden sword, “Senior Sister, now let’s look at the sword technique.”
Dong Xi’s swordsmanship seemed to be in a mess, but it had an indescribable rhythm.
Dong Xi was drawing the wind, using it to attack. Every sword attack contained the Qi of the Phoenix, so the killing power was naturally greater.
Gu Yao still did not understand. Dong Xi demonstrated it a few times and Gu Yao felt a little embarrassed. She said, “Junior Sister, I’ll repeat what you did just now. I’ll think about it when I get back.”
Dong Xi was afraid that Gu Yao would go to a dead end, so before they parted, she said, “Senior Sister, maybe I shouldn’t say this, but if you really can’t comprehend and borrow power, don’t hold it against yourself. Maybe it’s not suitable for you. There are so many great Dao, there must be one that suits you.”
Gu Yao looked into Dong Xi’s clear eyes, as if she could see through her at a glance. No wonder Dong Xi could cultivate so quickly. Although she was young, her heart was more determined than many people.
Dong Xi knew what she wanted and would not be affected by external things or outsiders.
Although Gu Yao did not make any substantial progress with Dong Xi’s advice, it helped her temperament a lot.
Gu Yao decided to work hard first and leave the rest to to God’s will.
Dong Xi returned to her room. The rooms next door were very quiet.
Dong Xi sneakily leaned against the crack of the door, wanting to see if Second Senior Brother was cultivating.
But before she could see anything, the door opened.
Dong Xi slipped and fell right in. A ball of spiritual Qi protected Dong Xi’s lower body, so when Dong Xi fell, it did not hurt much.
