Chapter - 182 The Cripples of Wuhu (15) (1/2)
Master Lu was surprised and curious by his visit and asked, ” I wonder what has caused Senior Qiu to come here? If you need junior's help, I would be more than happy to offer it.”
Qiu Qianren stroked his beard and laughed, ” It's nothing big actually, just that that I haven been too softhearted and fate has it that it will not end…erm, I would like to seek a secluded place to practice my skills, we talk again in the night.”
Master Lu saw that he wore no evil expression but was still unsettled and asked, ” I wonder did Senior happen to meet the Twin Killers of the Dark Winds?”
Qiu Qianren replied, ” The Twin Killers of the Dark Winds? This evil pair are not dead yet?”
Master Lu was greatly comforted by what he heard and spoke out, ” Ying'er, please bring Senior Qiu to my study to rest.” Qiu Qianren gave everyone a nod and left with Lu Guanying.
Although Master Lu had never seen Qiu Qianren's skills before, he had heard of his formidable name. He knew that when the five greats, Eastern Heretic, Western Poison, Southern Emperor, Northern Beggar and Central Divinity met for the Hua Shan tournament, they had invited him but he had something to attend to and thus turned down the invitation. But his skills must have been exceptional to get the invitation, even if he was not up to the standard of the greats, he should not be far from their standard. Even if the Twin Killers of the Dark Winds came, they would not be able to mess around with him.
He turned to Guo Jing and Huang Rong, ” Both of you haven't left? That's great. The elderly Qiu's skills are formidable, how lucky that he should appear this moment. I do not have to fear my opponents anymore! Later you can rest in your rooms but please do not leave them and you will be fine.”
Huang Rong gave a little laugh, ” Can I watch the fun?”
Master Lu have a deep sigh and replied, ” I'm afraid that my enemy will bring lots of people and I'm afraid that I wont be able to protect myself and allow you two to be hurt. Alright then, but you two must stick with me later. With Senior Qiu around, it would be useless no matter how many people they bring!”
Huang Rong clapped her hands in delight and laughed, ” I love seeing people fight. It was so interesting that day when you defeated that Little Jin Prince.”
Master Lu replied, ” This time, it would be the Little Prince's teacher who is much more skilful and hence I'm worried.”
Huang Rong answered, ” Ah! How do you know?”
Master Lu replied, ” Miss Huang, you wont understand these fighting matters. That claw technique which the Little Jin Prince used to attack my Ying'er's thigh is the same as the skill used to create those finger holes on the top of the skull.”
Huang Rong answered, ” Oh, I understand now. Wang Xianzhi's calligraphy was taught by Wang Yizhi and Wang Yizhi was taught by Lady Wei whose teacher was Zhong You. Thus, any professional would be able to guess the family or sect the calligrapher belongs to merely by looking at him works.”
Master Lu laughed, ” Miss is highly intelligent. I just have to give you a hint and you are able to understand everything. My two opponents are evil and vicious. Compared to Zhong Wang, they have smeared the reputation of their teacher and ancestors.”
Huang Rong pulled Guo Jing's hand and said, ” Let's see what great skill white bearded Grandpa is practicing.”
Master Lu was alarmed and said, ” Ah, don't, don't disturb him.”
Huang Rong laughed, ” It's alright.” And stood up to leave.
