Chapter 170: Misdirection (2/2)
Xiao Fang faced the door then pushed it open. As soon as he stepped in he immediately sensed Li Xiang inside.
”Long Wang, you're here,” LI Xiang's face lit up as her sweat trickled down her beautiful skin.
”It seems I interrupted your training session. I could come back at a better time,” Xiao Fang said.
”No, it's okay. Come in. I was just about to take a break anyways.”
Xiao Fang closed the door behind him.
”Would you like a drink? It's a fruit mix with qi infused into it. It's pretty sweet.”
”Thanks for the offer, but I'll pass,” Xiao Fang said as he took his shoes off.
Feeling the hard wooden floor beneath his feet gave him a nostalgic feeling. It reminded him of when he used to train in the Divine Sword sect's main training hall.
”It seems you really worked up a sweat. What technique were you practicing?” Xiao Fang asked.
”It's a movement technique called [ Misdirection ].”
.

.
[ Misdirection ]:
The ability to perfectly time when to make an illusory image the moment you change directions. Once this technique is practiced to a high level, even cultivators a realm or two above you would have a hard time catching you.
The Li Family clan bought all the scrolls for this technique, so it became the Li family Clan's signature move in the inner court for decades.
The idea of monopolizing a technique wasn't just something the Li Family Guild did, most guilds had at least one signature technique that became exclusively for their guild members.

”It's a pretty strong technique. I just started learning it, but not even Fei Lin was able to catch me.”
Hearing that shocked Xiao Fang. If what she was saying was true then this was definitely a heaven defying technique.
”Aren't you curious? I could show you if you want,” she said.
Xiao Fang became interested when she said that not even Fei Lin was able to catch her.
'Just how fast did the technique make her?' he wondered.
Before Xiao Fang could respond, Li Xiang put her cup down then began to run circles around him.
”Alright, come try to catch me,” she said happily.
Suddenly, Li Xiang's eyes widened. She didn't know how, but Xiao Fang was suddenly gone. Not even a fraction of a second later, she saw him standing only a few meters in front of her. There was no time to be surprised, she immediately used her illusory technique.
[ Misdirection ]
Suddenly, she changed direction.
A smirk appeared on her face as she successfully executed the technique. However, the unexpected happened.
”Ahh!”
Li Xiang ran straight into Xiao Fang's body.
Xiao Fang was surprised, was this really the extent of her technique? He could've stopped her from running into him, but he wouldn't have been a dual cultivator if he did.
