Ghost Valley took one last glance at Bai Qi, and his heart sighed helplessly“Old friend, there are so over”
“I kno far to go” Bai Qi nodded slowly
Ghost Valley turned and left
…
Glancing at Ghost Valley’s receding figure, Gu Nan looked back at Bai Qi“Master, should I send MrGhost Valley off?”
“No need” He shook his head and looked back to the interior of the house“You, come with me”
Gu Nan scratched her head with a puzzled look but still followed him in nonetheless
In the house, Bai Qi abruptly stoppedHis back turned, he asked a sudden question
At the first line, Gu Nan’s pupils shrank in shock
“Nan’er, the fighting at Changping, have you heard of it?”
Chapter 17: The Fighting at Changping
Glancing at Gu Nan’s inco sword strike, Ghost Valley felt a happy excitement fill his face
Not bad, her sword is imbued with a distinct aura
The essence was condensed and propelled, giving the sword a doWith such a narrow, focused thrust, the strike would feel unavoidable and death inevitable
Such an all-out strike a this old ant sith a slow and gradual motionBut, his acute control allowed him to deflect the bloithto the side, Bai Qi watched Gu Nan’s flickering actions with slight ain
“Haha, not bad, there’s a little bit of strength!” Ghost Valley laughed heartily
Although his hair has turned white, his age held no factor in this fightHis swords were varied and agile, focused but enco blade”
The clashi+ng swords ru air and filled it with the sounds of battle
In only a few breaths, the tords collided more than a dozen swords
“vhain, and both of them retreated
Ghost Valley juentle feather
Gu Nan stu lines across the snow
Her wrist felt nuy
It wasn’t that Ghost Valley was necessary stronger than her, but that his actions tapped upon her key weaknessesWith every soft contact, her sword’s speed was chipped away
“zing!”
She bounced back several feet and quickly readjusted her gripThe frosty air per onto her handFocusing once more, she prepared her next strikeLike a venoain
Her body fleard, but her right-hand grip opened and the sword began to fall
Losing the sword is one of the most fatal htly

With Gu Nan’s ability, she could only avoid defeat for maybe a dozen or so roundsThe two are on coa
…
Her hand twisted back and then slammed forward on the pommel
The sword accelerated forward like a cold coht, the sword had already neared hi forward
Ghost Valley nodded at this sword techniqueThe Hundred-Step Flying Sas a vertical style ht to her, and she’s already trained it to a dangerous level
However, this sword isn’t enough to make him serious
He took this opportunity to examine the intricacies of her development
Her moves are imbued with a desperate desire for deathHowever, unlike the finesse of a swords in one’s defenses
But as Ghost Valley was analyzing her attack, he failed to notice so else

With a turn of the wrist, Ghost Valley’s sword executed its Horizontal techniqueThe projectile sas easily redirected with Ghost Valley’s subtle deflection
“Clank!”
The sword quickly lost its h the air
But beyond his expectations, Gu Nan was already airborne and caught the falling sword, landing right behind Ghost Valley
The sword in her hand shi+fted from the Vertical stance to the Horizontal one

The glint of a sword abruptly appeared in the corner of Ghost Valley’s vision, cutting towards his unguarded back
“whoosh”
The sword hummed and the sno
Gu Nan looked up and saw that her sword strike was pinched between Ghost Valley’s two fingers
His fingers were unscathed and claers were also covered in a slight, visible aura
Ghost Valley used internal qi
To use internal qi against a little girl with threeloss of face for hih he wouldn’t have been injured anyways, he felt like the purpose of this spar was fulfilled
“I lose” Gu Nan said with a sly sh she said that, to make Ghost Valley use internal force, it’s obvious that it was really her that won
This girl… She’s really a hundred-year talent
Noticing her shtly
Inwardly though, he was quite surprised
To use the Hundred-Step Flying Sword of the Vertical Sword and Horizontal Piercing Eight Directions of the Horizontal Sword in sequence, it was an unprecedented idea [TL: Fro about it, the Directionalist Sect has always been divided into the Vertical and Horizontal path
Each swords theh it’s perhaps not the most efficient, it’s innovative
Gu Nan launched her sword and then predicted it’s deflected courseIt’s unorthodox and difficult, but it’s not i
Ghost Valley nodded at Gu Nan with satisfactionIt’s good that she’s thinking out of the boxThat’s the first step ofon fro Sword

“Old friend, s have completedYour hospitality was nobleBut, it is now ti to the end, Bai Qi hadn’t said a single wordBut now, his voice seee and exhaustion“Farewell”
Ghost Valley took one last glance at Bai Qi, and his heart sighed helplessly“Old friend, there are so over”
