The Devil Sword Swordsman
Ch. 78 - Shen Xuemei's
Shen Xuemei was one of the genius disciples who had a loner nature and did not want to add friends, his nature was so indifferent and haughty made people unwilling to approach him. Apart from his arguably handsome face, Shen Xuemei managed to rank first out of the 3 strongest disciples in the Lotus Temple sect.
After listening to Huang Kun's words, Xin Fai had a slight picture of this figure named Shen Xuemei.
Huang Kun advised him to be as good as possible when on the way Xin Fai did not deal too far with this person named Shen Xuemei. Without Huang Kun saying, Xin Fai had already thought so first because he himself did not like people from noble families very much.
Tao Wei said their journey would be escorted by Li Yong, Xin Fai was grateful to hear it. He himself was quite familiar with the man, Huang Kun did not mind either.
After explaining the other important thing Tao Wei moved away after saying goodbye, Huang Kun exhaled softly at that moment.
"The journey to Sinhua City will take quite a long time. Make sure your body condition is excellent before we start the journey," Huang Kun said before he also left. Xin Fai nodded her head slowly.
The afternoon sky began to be golden in color, Xin Fai enjoyed the cool breeze around him before leaving this place. After all Xin Fai liked the atmosphere here, the atmosphere in the Lotus Temple sect was very comfortable in contrast to his former village which was shabby and full of noise.
But not for a moment did Xin Fai's gaze fall on a young man who was practicing a sword not far from him. The young man's face was like a prince, the clothes he wore were also quite luxurious. He showed himself to be from a noble family.
Seeing the movements of the young man, Xin Fai came to the conclusion that he was a genius as well from the Lotus Temple sect. That haughty facial line also made Xin Fai recall Huang Kun's words.
"Don't let him be Shen Xuemei who was told earlier..."
Xin Fai was about to turn her face away for a moment before the young man looked back at her. Xin Fai's face turned horrified as she got that extremely cold gaze.
Xin Fai never expected, just now she was thinking of staying away from this young man named Shen Xuemei suddenly that person was already before her with a troubled look.
His cold face was like the north polar ice, Xin Fai moved clumsily.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" The young man's tone was flat, yet his voice was extremely haughty.
"Currently... These are my eyes, not yours. So it's up to me to look wherever I want." Xin Fai replied exasperatedly, she felt that she did not offend the young man at all.
Shen Xuemei was unmoved, she was still standing in her place with an unfettered look from Xin Fai who was now beginning to be bothered by her.
"Why are you still standing there?"
"This is my leg, not your leg. So it's up to me to stand wherever I want."
Shen Xuemei reversed Xin Fai's words earlier, her interlocutor opening his mouth in disbelief.
"What are you imitating my words!"
"This is your mouth? It's up to me to imitate or not" Shen Xuemei replied lazily.
Xin Fai was still inexhaustible with the young man before her, unwilling to prolong the matter of her trying to apologize perhaps the young man did not bother her anymore after this.
"Yes, I'm sorry Senior I was wrong to look at you" Xin Fai said. But Shen Xuemei seemed to be indifferent to his apology, instead he offended something else.
"Do you want to practice a match with me too?"
That sudden statement made Xin Fai cough a small cough, he immediately frowned in puzzled brows.
Just as Xin Fai gulped his saliva, he felt that Huang Kun would be in trouble ahead of him with this person.
Xin Fai scratched the back of her head awkwardly, "Ehehe... Less is more, Senior."
Shen Xuemei's flat face did not change in the least, she said softly but could still be clearly heard by Xin Fai.
"I've seen your match practice with Huang Kun, your strength is fine."
"E... Thank you," Xin Fai said, not knowing what to react to face a person like Shen Xuemei. For a moment the young man looked at him more closely.
"Hows it? Do you want it or not?"
Xin Fai could not refuse Shen Xuemei's request, how the handsome young man was his senior. Given that Shen Xuemei was the number one disciple in the Lotus Temple sect, he chose not to look for trouble with the young man.
Xin Fai took his position, originally Shen Xuemei did not make any attack different from how to fight Huang Kun who first attacked him without hesitation.
Shen Xuemei himself was more calculating in taking a step, he was not at all rash to win the fight.
Feeling that there was no other choice Xin Fai came forward to attack first, with Xin Fai's Lightning Steps trying to outwit the opponent but it seemed that Shen Xuemei's eyes could see his movements clearly.
Thanks to his battle with the demon monsters first, Xin Fai had easily reached back the level of the Lightning Steps with his original body, and also his comprehension in fighting was already better than before.
Shen Xuemei himself had a unique sword technique, he was very calm in response to the incoming attack. His flat face had not changed at all even Xin Fai had thought this person named Shen Xuemei was a living statue.
The exchange of moves went on for a while without any of them getting hurt, it continued until the sky started to darken.
Xin Fai relaxed her attacks as she felt that day was starting at night, they should immediately return to the sect.
Shen Xuemei stabilized his intermittent roar of breath, their state to date was indeed still a draw. But if Xin Fai continued his fight then Shen Xuemei was not sure he could win.
Xin Fai himself did not look exhausted in the slightest as he continued to recover his inner power using natural energy. Using high-level breathing techniques, it was easy for him to absorb that energy into his body.
Shen Xuemei was speechless again, she stared at Xin Fai for a moment making the atmosphere gradually awkward. The birds have returned to their cages, the sun is no longer visible, only a little light is visible in the far west.
"It looks like the practice this time should be postponed, we'll finish it sometime."
After a long time of not speaking, Shen Xuemei finally made a sound, he actually had a hard time stringing up words and expressing them to others.
Xin Fai nodded in agreement, she put on a respectful attitude.
"Good Senior."
Feeling that he had no interest anymore, Xin Fai immediately left after the permission to leave. He did not look back just to look at Shen Xuemei, to him the young man was very strange. His extremely cold gaze was completely unfriendly, his face was as stiff as never smiling.
And Xin Fai had only met such a person for the first time.
