Chapter 52: Sneaking Out (1/2)

Lin Xiao ignored the look his brother gave to him and put down the sack in front of the house. He glanced inside, wondering why Wenren Yu didn't come out like usual.

”Wenren Yu, are you there?”

”I'm on the back.” Wenren Yu's head popped out from the back garden. He was carrying a bucket in his hand. His eyes landed on the two sacks that Lin Xiao brought with him. ”You're buying supplies?”

”Yes. Help me out a bit. After this, let's train.”

”Fine.”

The rice sacks were put into the house then Wenren Yu came with Lin Xiao and Lin Yun to the front. Lin Xiao explained that he managed to somehow learnt Moon Evasion skill while they were in the village not long ago.

Wenren Yu blinked his eyes. ”It's impossible for you to learn new skill so easily like that. If you can learn just from watching, there will be thousands of skilled cultivators.”

”It's true. Watch.” Lin Xiao changed his stance. His mind was replaying how that third disciple, Hong, did it as his stance changed. It was only a split second movements before Lin Xiao suddenly moved a few inches away.

Seeing that, Wenren Yu felt his mind blanked. He obviously knew Moon Evasion because he had come to visit other sects in the past or they came for competition. Moon Evasion was one of the trademark skill of Yue Da Sect and normally wouldn't be taught to outsiders so easily.

Besides, even if one could see the skill outside, they wouldn't necessarily be able to learn it just from watching.

”That's… impossible,” Wenren Yu muttered.

Lin Xiao grinned. ”It's not impossible. Now, do you want to learn the skill too?”

Want?

”Of course!”

For the rest of the evening, Lin Xiao taught Lin Yun and Wenren Yu how to use Moon Evasion based on his own comprehension. It didn't take long for the other two to be able to use the skill to move a centimeter away from their position.

While it might look small, if they used the skill at critical juncture, they would be able to evade their opponent's attack. It might be a live saving technique when the time was right.

”It's already late,” Lin Yun remarked. ”Let's eat and rest, Brother.”

”Sure.”

Lin Xiao stretched his body to cool it down. Even though he wanted to practice all the time, he knew that it was important for him to divide his time between rest and practicing. If he didn't take care of his body, he would break down very quickly and possibly got sick because of overwork.

Wenren Yu sat down on the ground and heaved a sigh. He couldn't believe he learned Yue Da Sect trademark skill in just a few hours. It felt unbelievable that he managed to learn something like this in such a short time.

Looking at Lin Xiao, who was still contemplating, he shook his head. Probably, only Lin Xiao would be able to pull something like this.

”Do you know who come from Yue Da Sect?”

”The one who come?” Lin Xiao raised his head. He tilted his head. ”I don't know him, but he looks very powerful. He goes by the name Hong. Have you heard about him before?”

”Hong?”

”Yes.”
