Chapter 12: I Don’t Understand Sword Training
The cold blade pierced forward in the scorchingit trembled violently as if a held by a feeble old man
But it was by no accounts an old ht nowPresently, her hair was disheveled and the jumbled in whichever directionHer forehead was covered in lines of sweatThe occasional drops fell from her chin to her feet below
Nearby were two olderGo under the shaded eavesIt was a leisurely occasion with the two chatting, drinking tea, and laughing
The weather this h it neared the end of su in the open sun felt like a scorching punishment of the heavens
“zing!” Gu Nan gritted her teeth and continuedThe sword stabbed and stabbed, thesein repetition
This , she’s thrusted her swordbody, she felt as if her bones were creaking and
Her hands felt irath
“There’s not enough power in your ain” The oldto lift his head from the board
His perception developed to where he can judge a sword’s attributes just from the sound of her sword on the airBut Gu Nan wasn’t focused on the skills of her teacher
‘your speed is getting worse’ pah! How about you try a couple thousand times!
She rolled her eyes and launched curses inwardly
But she didn’t have the ti her teeth, her swollen wrists resu
The oldme the ‘way of the sword’But the entire first as only the simplest of movesSince that’s the case, I could just practice by randpa that only sits around all day!
No rievances she felt in the courtyard, it didn’t affect the serenity indoors
Inside, Bai Qi and Ghost Valley sat opposite each otherOne wearing a pale-white robe and the other wearing a black robe
Each held a black or white piece in their hands, playing slowly and leisurely
Bai Qi gently placed a piece down and looked outside
“Hmm, Ghost Valley, how is my disciple?”
Ghost Valley paused and seniusFor ordinary people, after practicing a move thousands of times, they would be unable to continueAnd even if they did, they’d risk injuring their physique permanentlyBut to have done that and only be exhausted, I must say, it’s remarkable”
Pausing again, he placed his piece doith a firm click
“I’ve been watching the last couple of days when you teach her thethe saood disciple you’ve picked up”
“Haha, even out of thousands of choices, it’s hard to find a good one”
Ghosts Valley eyed him with a suspicious look“But I irl off the street? And for her to enter your household so obediently?”
“H? Do you think I’m the type to trick and swindle? I’ll have you know, I’ to co of the heavens”
After that, he forcefully placed down a black piece
“Is that so? If it weren’t for you, I’d already have taken her to be my disciple” Ghost Valley calmly retorted“If she was my student, she would learn the profound principals of our sectAnd there, she can help us foster a better worldBut a shame”
Bai Qi scoffed at his foolish remarks
“Hu my disciple up? All for the ideals of you philosophers? NoShe is destined to becoeneral of Qin!”
Ghost Valley sighed resentfully“That view is far too narrowWhich is bigger, the lands under the heavens or your Qin?”
Bai Qi smiled confidently“The day that Qin can be safe in this world, that is when all lands under heaven will become Qin”
Ghost Valley didn’t answer, only gazing at Bai Qi for a few quiet ame
The roo time
Ghost Valley finally muttered, “You are still stubborn as ever”
