Chapter 452: The Emperors Opinion And Public Will! (1/2)
There was an ancient proverb in the kingdom: To hide a lie, a thousand lies are needed.
Li Muyang, of course, did not use the 'Clumsy birds have to start flying early'.
He also would not have such baseless footwork at all.
In order to avoid Mu Dingyi's Free and unfettered swords, Li Muyang had no choice but to activate the Black dragon's 'Art of Traveling through Clouds and Summoning Rain'.
It should be said that Dragons were divine beings that were born to soar to the Ninth Heaven, and the Art of Traveling through Clouds and Summoning Rain was the most basic flying bodywork that every dragon should master.
The majority of the human race practiced qi to fly, or perhaps practiced sword to fly. There were also some divine objects and pets that could a.s.sist with flight.
However, flying was a unique talent of the Dragon clan, it was their innate ability.
Perhaps their fighting strength may be inferior to some powerful human martial artists, but based on the ability to escape——there was most likely n.o.body that can match up to them.
Li Muyang was naturally no match for Mu Dingyi. He did not have the slightest thought to counterattack Mu Dingyi's Free and unfettered swords.
However, it was at this moment that he fully displayed the Art of Traveling through Clouds and Summoning Rain, which he had been painstakingly practicing for half a year.
He was like a divine dragon soaring in the sky, freely maneuvering up and down in the midst of the glints and shadows of swords, and the flashes of lightning and rolling thunder. He avoided Mu Dingyi's sword formation that was composed of the three Free and unfettered swords, and calmly retreated.
He had once again escaped from death.
From the beginning, no one had ever thought that Li Muyang would win.
Of course, Li Muyang also did not think about it.
He had calculated before and the best result was to use the Art of Traveling through Clouds and Summoning Rain to escape from the battlefield. No matter what, he had to protect himself.
He just did not expect that, the battle had just begun, but Mu Dingyi's fierce swordsmans.h.i.+p had already forced him to use the Art of Traveling through Clouds and Summoning Rain to escape.
“Shameless child.” Elder Chengfeng roared, “You actually want to exchange your inferior martial arts for my 'Still water sword technique'?”
Li Muyang shot a cold glance at him. “Inferior martial arts can dodge your Old immortal's 'Still Water sword technique'? If my 'Dragon wounding fist' and 'Clumsy birds have to start flying early' are inferior martial arts, then how superior is your 'Still water sword technique'?”
“Li Muyang—— ”
Li Muyang did not pay attention to the surrounding people, looked at Mu Dingyi to say: “You want to exchange?”
“No.”
“Fine.”
“The bodywork that Li Muyang just used are unheard of. I also have never seen them before.” On the viewing platform, Cui Xichen turned to Chu Xianda. “I am also very curious what sort of bodywork is that? Why is it so wonderful? It allowed him to easily escape from Old immortal's Free and Unfettered sword. Moreover, when Li Muyang evaded the attacks, his movements were like that of a dragon playing in water, and there was a faint dragon cry with the wind——What is this magical martial arts?”
“How come I didn't hear any dragon cries? I couldn't even see a dragon playing in water.” Lu Xingkong refuted. “It's not something that needs to be concealed anyway. Li Muyang has already answered Old immortal's question. That punch is the Dragon wounding fist, which was taught by the Dean of Starry Sky Academy. If someone doesn't believe it, then they can write to him to ask. As for this bodywork, it is called 'Clumsy birds have to start flying early', a technique that Li Muyang created himself. Li Muyang is a gifted youngster with outstanding talent, and have received guidance from the Starry Sky Academy teachers. It is not difficult to imagine that he created his own set of footwork. The Divine continent is vast, what could not happen? It's just whether you believe it or not.”
“Everyone knows he talks nonsense. Does he think we're three years old?”
“Since you think he talks nonsense, then you should tell your Majesty what punch that was? And what was the footwork?”
“It will come out eventually.” Cui Xichen's sight s.h.i.+fted to Li Muyang on the Sword G.o.d Square, “it'll only takes another sword strike from Old immortal.”
Mu Dingyi was indeed ready to launch another sword attack.
He looked at Li Muyang and said aloud, “Your talent is rare in the world. No matter what punch you made, no matter what the footwork is called, it is still from your hard work. There is nothing to be criticised. The reason why I made an inquiry was just to find out what is going on, and to satisfy my curiosity.”
“Since you do not want to talk, then I will not ask anymore. Today, I have met my match. Now, please take another sword of mine again. If you can take this sword, the battle will be over.” “
The square was empty and vast, therefore Mu Dingyi's voice naturally spread widely.
“Did you hear? Old immortal said that he had met his match today——he actually said that Li Muyang is his match——”
“Li Muyang can die without regret——die without regret——
“I didn't expect Li Muyang to be this strong——The Starry Sky Academy really has the power to change something rotten into something magical?” ——
On the Stargazing observatory.
A frail girl sat by the windowsill, resting her cheek in the palm of her hand.
Her gaze was fixed on the handsome man on the Sword G.o.d Square as she whispered, “The first time I saw him, I already thought he was special. But I could not say why he was special——and then, thinking back, his eyes are particularly bright, and his smile is particularly warm. Although it was our first encounter, but it felt like we already knew each other a long time ago. He doesn't make people feel unfamiliar at all. One can't help but get close to him, as though——he is a brother who dotes on me. The same as Third elder brother and Second elder brother.”
“Chenxi——” Song Tao did not like his little sister constantly mentioning Li Muyang. The more she talked about him, the less he liked him. Hearing his precious little sister constantly talking about another man gave him a very sour feeling.
“Chenxi feels that he is a peer and a companion who had grown up with me. It is only today that I know he's this strong——At his age, he can already 'match' up to Old immoral——In the divine continent, isn't Li Muyang the best of the younger generation?”
“Chenxi, don't talk nonsense. There are countless cultivators in the world. How can he be ranked at the top?”
“The Divine continent is vast, I don't know about the other places. But, at least he's the best in our West Wind, right? Does Third elder brother have another candidate?”
Song Tao pondered for a while, and then sighed out loud.
He could not think of a better youngster than Li Muyang, nor could he think of someone of similar age who was more powerful than Li Muyang.
There was no way he could shamelessly say his own name out loud.
“So what if he's the best in West Wind?” A cold voice sounded from behind and a youngster in green was seen opening the door. Looking over the Sword G.o.d Square, he uttered, “Since he's going to die anyway.”
“Tinyun.” Song Tao turned around to look at the young man who came in and asked, “Didn't you go to the old mansion to accompany Grandfather? Why are you here?”
“How can I miss such a good show?” Song Tinyun answered.
Song Tao, noticing the icy cold expression on Song Tinyun's face, gently sighed.
“Li Muyang will definitely be able to take this sword.” The maiden said softly, putting her palms together and prayed——
