Legendary Fighter
23. The Sacred Sword Technique
"Are you really just cultivating for a year?" asked Wei Guanlin who got the nod from Zhou Fan.
"How can it be, instead of me not believing, but this sounds absurd," said Wei Guanlin who was a little less trusting, he also wanted to know the secret behind it all.
"Content .. Oh yes, he said you entered the dead forest to improve your fighting techniques, how about we clash sword techniques, I saw yesterday there was a sword scratch on the corpse of the silver wolf beast that you killed..." Zhou Fan said as he pulled out a sword from within his storage ring.
Getting such an answer, Wei Guanlin was dissatisfied with the answer he had obtained, but Wei Guanlin did not ask again,
Perhaps Zhou Fan could not tell yet, as he looked like he was switching the conversation as he asked about it, Wei Guanlin thought
"Mmm, may be it, I want to feel the fighting technique of a genius who reaches the level of a master fighter in a year." Wei Guanlin was seen thinking for a while after which he agreed to compete sword technique with Zhou Fan.
"Remember the sword technique, can't use energy in." Zhou Fan said to Wei Guanlin.
"Alright, are you ready for 'Young Master Zhou'?" Wei Guanlin asked with pressure said Young Master Zhou,
"You're the..." Zhou Fan gave a signal for Wei Guanlin to attack him first.
Feeling belittled by the young man before him, Wei Guanlin attacked Zhou Fan with his flagship sword technique, 'holy sword technique'.
Zhou Fan who recognized the sword technique that Wei Guanlin was using smiled faintly.
"Is Miss Wei a disciple of the holy sword sect?" Zhou Fan spoke casually as he fended off any movements issued by Wei Guanlin.
"Why do you call me on the frills, miss, didn't I tell you just call me 'Guanlin', or some other call!" notya answered Zhou Fan's question, he was even angry when Zhou Fan called out to him with a miss fringe.
"I'm just following you." Zhou Fan said without feeling guilty.
"It wasn't him who called me Young Master Zhou himself, why was he angry when I called him miss, what was my fault?" Zhou Fan nodded in a complaining tone.
Wei Guanlin stopped attacking Zhou Fan, then he looked like he was thinking with his right hand rubbing his chin.
"Ah... you idiot, did he not realize I was mocking him by suppressing Young Master Zhou's words to him?" Wei Guanlin was upset as she recalled that.
"Forgot it first, let's continue the duel." Wei Guanlin said to Zhou Fan.
Hearing Wei Guanlin's words, Zhou Fan only shook his head, even though he himself was the one who had the problem, but he said as if I was the one who started it.
"Bas with women..," sis Zhou Fan inwardly said, he could not possibly dare to issue his complaint, for he knew 'the woman is always right'.
"By the way, how do you know I'm a holy sword sakte disciple?" Wei Guanlin asked where Zhou Fan knew he was from from the holy sword.
"Everyone must know that you are a disciple of the holy sword sect, if you use the sect's flagship technique, even the entire empire knows the prowess of its sword techniques." Zhou Fan explained how he learned that Wei Guanlin was from the holy sword sect.
The holy sword sect was the largest sect in the Wei Empire, it was famous for its sword techniques which were already very legendary, that holy sword technique was the name of that extremely famous sword technique, it was the name of that sword technique, this technique was also what gave the sect its name.
"Oh... Is it too visible, but I haven't been able to defeat your sword technique, I've never seen a sword technique like the one you used, which obviously isn't weaker than a holy sword technique." Wei Guanlin tried to assess the sword technique that Zhou Fan used.
"This is just a technique left by my teacher" Zhou Fan said humbly.
The two of them continued to fight while occasionally chatting, they greatly enjoyed the sword technique battle match that they were doing.
"I'm giving up..." Wei Guanlin suddenly said the word surrender.
"Why?" Zhou Fan was astonished when Wei Guanlin suddenly said 'give up'.
"I'm not strong anymore, you don't even look tired at all." Wei Guanlin complained to Zhou Fan, then he rested under one of the trees that were near the mouth of the cave.
Zhou Fan walked up to the woman, he then sat down beside Wei Guanlin.
"The mastery of your sword technique is already quite high, but you are too focused on your sword movements, you should also pay attention to the movements of your opponents, and also how to slash you should be calmer, you are too stiff." Zhou Fan gave Wei Guanlin a suggestion,
But after knowing there was a flaw in the movement that Wei Guanlin had made, Zhou Fan could not help but say it.
"Fa..." Wei Guanlin called Zhou Fan slowly.
"Hmm..," Zhou Fan turned his head towards Wei Guanlin.
"Thank you...." Wei Guanlin exclaimed softly.
"No problem, somehow I feel comfortable when close to you," Zhou Fan said suddenly.
"Really?" wei Guanlin asked Zhou Fan.
"No, I feel claustrophobic every time around you, you are so noisy," Zhou Fan replied with a chuckle that irritated Wei Guanlin.
"Huh! you stupid man," Wei Guanlin said resentfully before leaving Zhou Fan alone.
Zhou Fan who did not know why the woman arrived angry even just scratched his back of the head that did not itch.
Actually what Zhou Fan said earlier was the truth, somehow when he was near the woman who he had only met a few days ago, Zhou Fan felt warmth and comfort.
****
Wei Guanlin entered the cave with an annoyed face, he actually also felt the same way that Zhou Fan felt, whether since when his feelings had existed.
As Zhou Fan said that he was comfortable nearby, Wei Guanlin felt her heart blossom.
He tried to convince himself by asking Zhou Fan, but the young man denied it.
Wei Guanlin had expected the young man to answer as he expected, but reality did not match his expectations.
"Based on a stupid, stupid man..."Wei Guanlin continued to call Zhou Fan ignorant, until a voice called out to him.
"Guanlin..," said a young man as he entered the cave, which was none other than Zhou Fan.
Seeing Zhou Fan enter the cave, Wei Guanlin immediately pretended like nothing had happened between the two.
After calming himself down, Wei Guanlin turned her body to face Zhou Fan.
"What's wrong?" wei Guanlin asked still in a slightly annoyed tone.
"No, no so it looks like you are in a bad mood," Zhou Fan said without feeling guilty.
Hearing Zhou Fan's remark, Wei Guanlin only grieved in annoyance.
"Cihh, she could have said that, didn't she realize who made me like this, you stupid man!" wei Guanlin said inwardly.
Wei Guanlin tried to calm down more, she took a breath.
Phew...
"Now what?" wei Guanlin asked Zhou Fan.
Zhou Fan looked at Wei Guanlin, their gazes clashing against each other, feeling that he had gained perfect intuition he opened his mouth.
"Will you .... "
