Chapter - 10 Thinking of the Unforgettable Man Far Away (10) (1/2)

He Zudao said, ”If brother Fang really wants to battle I'll use the short sword of Miss Guo.” He drew the broken sword, the sword originally was very short and after Wei Tianwang broke it was even shorter. Furthermore, the tip was gone now and it didn't even resemble a dagger.

He Zudao held the scabbard in his left hand and thrust the sword forward. This was a very fast manoeuvre, Fang Tianlao saw a white flash and already He Zudao attacked with three stances, because the sword He used was too short he couldn't wound Fang Tianlao. But Fang was still frightened and thought, ”Very fast three stances, most difficult to block. What kind of swordsmanship does he use? If he used an ordinary long sword I would be dead by now.”

After He Zudao attacked with three stances, he backed away and stood still. Fang Tianlao displayed his sword techniques in half defending and half attacking. He Zudao avoided the attacks and didn't counter attack. Suddenly he attacked with incredible speed again forcing Fang Tianlao to be in a frantic rush. And He Zudao jumped back again. Fang Tianlao displayed his sword into a white light, and his movements were very swift.

Guo Xiang thought, ”This old man's techniques are violent, fierce, ruthless and viscous. Similar to the palm techniques of Wei Tianwang, but he's swifter and makes him more lethal……”

When she thought of here, she heard He Zudao yell out, ”Be careful!” After saying 'careful' his scabbard in his left hand was quick as lightning and encased Fangs' sword and his right hand sword pointed at the throat of Fang Tianlao.

Fang Tianlaos' sword was stuck in the scabbard and couldn't be used to block that stance. Seeing that sword was about to thrust through his throat, he let go of his sword and rolled away on the ground and avoided that lethal blow. Before Fang got up, Pan Tiangeng seized the hilt of the sword and pulled it out of the scabbard. Both Guo Xiang and He Zudao exclaimed, ”Excellent movement!” This sickly looking old man didn't say a word, but it was evident his martial arts were above his two younger martial arts brothers.

He Zudao said, ”Sir, you have very good martial arts. My respects.” He Zudao turned his head to Guo Xiang and said, ”Miss Guo, after hearing your enchanting performance earlier, I've composed another song. And I would like you to give me your opinion.”

Guo Xiang asked, ”What kind of song is it?” He Zudao sat on the ground and started to prepare his zither.

Pan Tiangeng said, ”You've defeated my two martial arts brothers. I would like to compete with you.”

He Zudao shook his hands and said, ”I have already competed and had no pleasure in it. I want to play a song for Miss Guo now. It's a new song, if you're interested you can stay and listen if you don't understand you're welcome to leave.” And started playing the zither.

Guo Xiang was amazed and pleased. Somehow He Zudao composed this new song from the song she played earlier. Making it even more brilliant and interesting. The music was very mesmerizing.

The actual translation will have to wait for some time, or someone else already knows the translation. He/she is welcome to do that part.

At one point of this song, He Zudao mentioned a ”she” in his lyrics, Guo Xiang thought, ”The ”she” in his song, could it be me? The music was very touching, moving and was filled with admiration and love.”

Realising that Guo Xiang blushed. Never in her life did she even hear such beautiful music.

Pan Tiangeng and others didn't understand any of this. They don't know that He Zudao was a rather arrogant man with a flair of a silly bookworm behavior.
