The two of them stared at each other silently for a long time. The surroundings were silent and no one made a sound.
Lu Xiaofeng looked left and right and found that there was something wrong with the two of them. Only then did he remember that he hadn't introduced the other party yet. He coughed lightly and said, "This is Qi Tong's adoptive father."
Hua Manlou closed his eyes and nodded at Simon Suisue, who was looking at him.
Simon Suisue shifted his gaze and looked at Xie Lige. He said with certainty, "You are very strong."
"I don't use a sword!"
Xie Lige said faintly and rejected Simon Suisue very rudely. On the way to Wanmei Villa, he had read about Simon Suisue. The book said that he was obsessed with the way of the sword and had been pursuing swordsmanship all his life. He was even more passionate about competing with people who used swords.
Xie Lige rejected him immediately. He leaned on the rockery and glanced at Simon Suisue, who was also expressionless.
Simon Suisue frowned when he heard the rejection.
"Your internal energy is very strong. I will only compete with you."
Simon Suisue sat on the stone table with his back straight. His words were clearly heard. He slowly spat them out. They were as sharp and tough as him.
The white silk in his hand was wrapped tightly around the long sword. Simon Suisue put the sword in his arms and looked at Xie Lige under the rockery.
Xie Lige raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you sure?"
Wow, he really opened his eyes today. Someone actually took the initiative to find a flower garden full of imperial energy. He looked at Simon Suisue's health bar. It was very long, very thick, and hard. He couldn't help but feel itchy.
He silently took out his jade flute from his arms. He didn't lean on the rockery anymore and his expression gradually became serious.
Simon Suisue nodded and looked at Xie Lige without avoiding his eyes. He said, "Of course I am sure."
"But I'm not here to compete with you."
Xie Lige smiled. His pale and cold face looked very fragile. His lips were very thin, but the aura around him made people not dare to underestimate him.
Simon Suisue was puzzled. "Why?"
"To find you for treatment!"
"I'm just a swordsman," Simon Suisue frowned and looked at Xie Lige. "A swordsman only knows how to kill."
Simon Suisue was not willing to let the murderous swordsman take the initiative to save people.
Xie Lige chuckled and glanced at Simon Suisue, who was frowning. He said, "If you agree, I will agree to be your sparring partner."
As Hua Jian, he also attacked others. It was impossible for him to be a sparring partner, but it could be used as an exchange.
Simon Suisue knew which was more important. On one hand, he only had to save someone once, while on the other hand, he could find a new opponent. He simply said, "Sure."
"But after the competition."
Xie Lige nodded. "Of course!"
Simon Suisue immediately stood up from the stone table and walked out. He held the sword in his hand and prepared to find a place to compete.
Everyone followed behind him. Along the way, they passed by a plum forest full of blooming flowers. Thick white snow piled up on the branches, and below the branches was an open space about the size of two houses. When they looked up, they could even see the clear blue sky.
Lu Xiaofeng had expected this scene. He originally hoped that if Xie Lige did not use a sword, Simon Suisue would not challenge him. In the end, he still failed.
His good friend was obsessed with the way of the sword as usual.
He weakly dragged his body behind the two people in front of him and sat down on the steps next to the open space. He held his face and looked at the two people in the middle of the open space.
Hua Manlou smiled gently. In his arms, Tanshu stayed leisurely.
Simon Suisue held the sword in his hand, raised it in front of him, and said to Xie Lige, "This sword is the sharpest weapon in the world. The blade is three feet and seven inches, and the net weight is seven pounds and thirteen ounces."
His clothes were whiter than snow, his hair was black, and he held the sword. He was as cold and emotionless as a statue. Only when he talked about his favorite sword did he show some vitality.
Hearing the introduction, Xie Lige looked down at the jade flute in his hand. He clenched it tightly, and it felt warm to the touch. He copied Simon Suisue's words and said with a smile, "The jade brush is two feet long and weighs twenty-seven ounces. It was a gift from a friend in the past."
As soon as he finished speaking, Simon Suisue flew over with the sword in his hand.
Fast, as fast as lightning.
The sword in Simon Suisue's hand seemed to be alive. It skillfully bypassed the obstacles in front of him and stabbed toward Xie Lige. Seeing this, Xie Lige immediately threw a Tai Yin over.
He turned around and was already far away from Simon Suisue.
He turned his head and looked at Simon Suisue, whose eyes suddenly lit up. He smiled. What a joke. Why would he, a Flower Court cultivator, fight in close combat? The right thing to do was to break the channeling and break the jade. Staying thousands of miles away was the right thing to do.
Now, it was the real beginning.
Xie Lige smiled from ear to ear as he watched Simon Suisue. His expression was relaxed, but his movements were very flirtatious. Every time Simon Suisue's sword was in front of him, he would immediately use the Twin Lotus Flowers. The tip of the sword paused in the air and then stabbed forward, but it hit nothing.
In the field, Simon Suisue looked at Xie Lige's clothes with bright eyes and asked, "Is this your martial arts?"
He was certain that there was no problem with his internal energy. When he used the sword technique, it was as usual. However, at the moment when he attacked, the sword seemed to have pierced into a very obscure place, and there was a momentary pause.
Thinking of how Xie Lige had distanced himself from him at the beginning of the fight, Simon Suisue said with certainty.
Xie Lige's lips curled up slightly. His silky silver ornaments fell to his chest. His snow-like long hair was combed back, revealing his handsome face. He narrowed his long and narrow eyes and looked at Simon Suisue, who was full of fighting spirit after saying these words.
"Yes and no. It is a move, but it is not my main martial arts."
His jade hadn't been broken yet.
Simon Suisue didn't say anything. He immediately moved forward and tried to close the distance between them.
Xie Lige's reaction wasn't slow either. He quickly threw Shang Yang, which was dodged. Then, he threw a Scattering Green Lotus, which was dodged again. Xie Lige's reaction wasn't difficult either. He immediately threw a Water Moon, which was blocked by Simon Suisue's sword. The ink was blocked by the sword, but it spread out and burned the surroundings.
Simon Suisue immediately looked at Xie Lige and followed closely behind him.
Xie Lige calmly put away the jade pen in his hand and looked at the cooldown time of his skills. Very good, he could run again.
Then, he started to sneak away again.
Simon Suisue wasn't slow either. He quickly caught up with Xie Lige's footsteps and held his sword tightly.
The battle between the two on the open ground caused quite a commotion. Bai Mei, who was on the side, had been hit by an ink. It swayed with difficulty but didn't fall. However, in the next second, a wisp of sword energy appeared in front of it.
The tree trunk let out a tragic cry, and with a crack, it was broken into two.
Simon Suisue didn't care what his sword energy did. He just approached Xie Lige again and again. He understood his opponent's attack style. If he wanted to defeat his opponent, he had to get close to him.
Xie Lige wandered around the open ground. He narrowed his eyes and immediately understood Simon Suisue's intention. He sneered. Many people wanted to use this move, but Hua Jian was not a place where you could get close to.
One, two, three, four!
One more time!
Xie Lige immediately started using the same move. Just then, the cooldown time was up. Ink began to appear one after another. Xie Lige came back to his senses and looked at Simon Suisue, who was chasing after him. He smiled at his opponent, but the pen in his hand didn't stop.
His moves were fast.
Ximen Chuixue was caught off guard by Xie Lige's sneak attack as Shang Yang Zhi was sent flying.
"Woo!"
Ximen Chuixue dodged out of reflex, but he did not expect that the Ink Dot Block would crash into his body while it was flying. He grunted, but did not even frown. He immediately raised his sword and charged forward.
Xie Lige, who was moving at high speed in front of him, was very patient. After throwing the ink, he left without hesitation. He didn't expect to feel that the Qi and blood in his body had been fully replenished. He turned around and gave Simon Suisue a kind smile.
You're poisoned, and you still want to beat me?
Xie Lige's hands moved even faster. However, at this time, Simon Suisue found that the move he had just been hit by was different.
The people on the side of the open ground looked at the two people flying up and down in the center. They looked at Xie Lige, who was leisurely admiring flowers in front of a courtyard. They looked at Simon Suisue, who was pursing his lips and calmly trying to close the distance between them again and again. Simon Suisue always watched as Xie Lige escaped in front of him the moment he was about to succeed.
Simon Suisue's face darkened.
Lu Xiaofeng watched several times. His expression was a little strange. He couldn't help but look at Xie Lige in the air, and then at Simon Suisue, whose aura was getting colder and colder.
He hesitated again and again. In the end, he couldn't help but say, "Why do I feel like Senior Xie is teasing Ximen?"
It was clear who was stronger and who was weaker in the open ground. Simon Suisue's swordsmanship was indeed excellent, and his body movements were also very exquisite. However, in front of the white-haired man, he was a little lacking. The corners of the man's purple and black clothes always dodged Simon Suisue's sharp sword qi the moment it arrived. Before he left, he seemed to be playing with him as if he was greeting a child.
Hua Manlou couldn't see the scene in the open ground. His expression was calm. When he heard Lu Xiaofeng's words, he couldn't help but laugh. Then, he listened to what was happening in the open ground.
As for the old housekeeper standing on the side, he looked at his village lord with a gentle gaze.
When he heard Lu Xiaofeng's voice, he glanced at Lu Xiaofeng.
He secretly decided that he would be a little slower when he opened the door next time.
