Legend of the Heavenly Fruit
Eps. 188 — Back Practice III
"Hm, Yuan'er have you never seen anyone hold your sword?" Yun Feiyu looked at Zhou Yuan puzzledly.
Zhou Yuan smiled faintly, "No Aunty, but no one has been able to withstand this sword as Auntie has done."
Yun Feiyu laughed. "That's because of your lack of knowledge, with great power you can do something that is considered humanly impossible..."
Zhou Yuan nodded, not knowing the extent of Yun Feiyu's strength, but Zhou Yuan believed that the woman in front of him was stronger than anyone he met.
Yun Feiyu sighed before putting on a regretful face, "Yuan'er, it seems like my plan will be to hunt you down not so, you turned out to be more expert than I thought..."
Yun Feiyu had originally thought of teaching Zhou Yuan some martial techniques but seeing the young man's abilities just now, he began to rethink his training plans.
"You've been great at swordplay and as talented as it is, I'm not a swordsman so there's not much I can teach you..."
Yun Feiyu said it was better for Zhou Yuan to focus on increasing his martial power with resources, you could say Zhou Yuan's ability was already high enough just that his martial level was low.
Although only a glance at the two exchanged attacks, Yun Feiyu understood that Zhou Yuan was a very talented young swordsman even for the size of his world.
Zhou Yuan actually agreed with the decision despite not saying it directly, Zhou Yuan understood the situation the most he was in now and indeed all he needed was resources to support his training.
Yun Feiyu then swung his hand to create a portal. "Yuan'er, as I said there are many Sun Orchids and Moon Orchids in the skull forest, I will go there and bring a lot of orchids for you, maybe I go quite a while, maybe I go, I'll be back by two to three weeks."
Zhou Yuan was surprised, he did not expect Yun Feiyu to directly do anything big for him.
"Yuan'er may I ask for your help, as long as I go looking for the Sun Orchid can you teach Lian'er your swordsmanship?" Feiyu Pinta.
"Teaching swords?"
"Yes, you're even more skilled at swordplay than I am, Lian'er isn't a swordsman but I want her to be able to use that weapon."
Zhou Yuan then turned to Yun Bailian who was now nodding softly at him. "Okay, Auntie, I'll teach Miss Yun swordsmanship."
Compared to just teaching the sword, Feiyu's services of wanting to bring the Sun Orchid for him were much bigger so Zhou Yuan had no problem teaching the girl his swordsmanship.
"Thank you Yuan'er, then I'll go first." After saying that Yun Feiyu jumped into the portal before disappearing into it.
"Brother Yuan, please seek his guidance and cooperation..." After his Grandmother left, Bailian bowed respectfully to Zhou Yuan.
"Miss Yun, you don't have to act like that." Zhou Yuan scratched his head, in his smallest heart he also respected Bailian so there was no need to give a salute until he bowed.
"It's okay Brother Yuan, according to Grandma we should respect who has contributed to us, because now I am studying with you so I must respect you."
Zhou Yuan scratched his head, Bailian's words were indeed true so Zhou Yuan couldn't refute him.
Zhou Yuan could see that in addition to Yun Feiyu teaching martial arts to Bailian, he had also been taught about ritual tatak, manners, and being kind to others.
Zhou Yuan's gaze then fell on Linxia, thinking of having to explain something to him, "Xia'er, I hope you don't mind about this..."
Linxia stepped closer to Zhou Yuan before suddenly peeping at the young man's cheeks, Zhou Yuan was startled, yet he said something Linxia immediately turned around and hurriedly left with a blushing face.
Zhou Yuan smiled, not expecting Linxia to be that aggressive, he could see that the girl's cheeks were blushing after kissing her.
"Brother Yuan, why did Miss Yue stick her lips on your cheeks and she immediately ran over with a reddened face? Is he hot?" Bailian who witnessed the incident looked confused.
Zhou Yuan coughed softly, he was sure even a fool would know there was a special relationship between him and Linxia.
"You could say we have a bond that is more than just a friend, Miss Yun..."
Zhou Yuan scratched his head, he found it difficult to explain this even though it was actually very simple. Zhou Yuan had only this first relationship with a woman so did not know what to respond to.
Bailian looked still clueless but Zhou Yuan did not want to explain any further, Zhou Yuan tried to change the topic of the incident by asking Bailian to pull out the sword from its sheath.
Just as he trained Feiyu, Zhou Yuan first wanted to know Bailian's ability in swordplay, he asked the girl to attack him with all her might.
Bailian without refuting immediately moved quickly as he suddenly stood in front of Zhou Yuan and swung his sword.
Zhou Yuan almost choked on his own breath, he managed to hold back the swing of Bailian's sword but was surprised by the force the girl exuded.
"Crystal Realm Power?!"
Zhou Yuan did not expect that Bailian who did not differ much from his age had reached such a level of strength.
The shoulder-haired girl did not stop there, she then used her skill in swordplay and released considerable qi on each of her attacks.
Zhou Yuan smiled wryly, if he knew Bailian's strength was in the crystal realm he probably wouldn't have told him to use his full strength. Zhou Yuan realized that now he did not have a strong and sturdy physique that he might not be able to withstand every swing of the girl's sword.
Bailian continued to attack Zhou Yuan for dozens of moves until he finally stopped after Zhou Yuan told him to.
Zhou Yuan felt his sword-wielding right arm ache a little as a result of holding Bailian's sword continuously. If he continues he is not sure he can hold it.
Zhou Yuan observed the power that Linxia had unleashed, he still could not believe that the fifteen-year-old Bailian had already reached the Crystal Realm.
Zhou Yuan initially thought that only he could get to that stage at a young age because of his experience in his first life and his special body.
Not himself expected, there was someone who could rival his achievements even Bailian was more talented than him.
'If I didn't have the Sky King Body now despite having memories in the first life though, I wouldn't be able to rival his talent...' Meeting a young swordsman like Bailian made Zhou Yuan understand so little of his world as Feiyu had said.
"I now know some of your weak points in playing the sword, rather than fixing every move we better learn about the sword foundation first."
Zhou Yuan then began to explain his knowledge to Bailian about the sword, what he had to improve as well as what to focus on.
Bailian was actually quite talented in learning swords just that his body was still not used to holding the weapon. Zhou Yuan intended to teach the girl the basics of the sword first.
