Great Love for All Heavens Begins with Huang Yaoshi

Chapter 22: Jade Flute Sword, every move hits the air, splitting the air palm, every palm splits the air

"What nonsense are you talking about? You are my only daughter in this whole world." Huang Yaoshi frowned slightly.

Huang Rong looked suspicious after hearing this:
"It's fine if he looks like you, but how come he also knows your unique hidden weapon, the 'Bone Attachment Needle', and even the 'Finger Magic', and can even see through every one of my moves."

Huang Yaoshi frowned even deeper:
"After I married your mother, I only had you, my daughter. Besides that, I have been living in seclusion on Peach Blossom Island, never leaving. You know that I vowed to create the foundation of the internal energy of the first volume from the second volume of the Nine Yin Manual. I will not leave Peach Blossom Island until I have mastered the martial arts described in the manual."

"Then what on earth is going on?" Huang Rong suddenly remembered something and muttered in disbelief:
"Could it be, as he said before, that it came from forty years ago?"

Huang Yaoshi obviously heard these words, but how could anyone believe such fantastic words?

"I don't know how you fell out with your family in this life. Let me think about myself."

The young man in green robe suddenly started preaching without any beginning or end:
"We have been a prominent family for generations, a family of scholars, and every generation has produced noble civil servants. If they had not been wronged by treacherous officials, they would not have left the court. This is our family background."

"I was weak and sickly since childhood, so my parents named me Pharmacist. After a long illness, I became a doctor and no longer had to rely on those so-called cures prescribed by quack doctors."

"At thirteen, with my health strong, my father, who was determined to bring honor to our family, told me to focus on the imperial examinations and achieve fame and honor, which was the right path."

"I'll be frank. If a person has no dreams, what's the difference between that and being carefree?"

"The greatest joy in this life is to be a leisurely and carefree peach blossom fairy."

Huang Rong burst out laughing when she heard this, thinking to herself:
"It has to be him!"

The others were completely confused, except Huang Yaoshi who continued to listen with an expressionless face.

"Besides, what is the imperial examination?"

"In times of peace and prosperity, the world belongs to the rich and powerful. When a country is about to fall, the world belongs to the common people. But when prosperity comes, the common people have no share. But when danger and need help, the common people have a responsibility."

"They are cattle and horses in prosperous times, cannon fodder in troubled times. Their strength is squeezed out in peacetime, and their lives are used in wartime. How ridiculous."

"Tsk tsk, once these words were spoken, it was unbearable. I thought that my previous rebellious and arrogant character would at least not bring trouble to the family. But now this rampant and rebellious heart is deeply afraid that the Huang family will not be exterminated."

"Finally, they insisted that I admit my fault. If I didn't, they would just pretend that I, their rebellious son, had never existed. But I said something that only added fuel to the fire."

Zhuang Buyan spoke leisurely:
"I examine myself three times a day and I have done nothing wrong."

To the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan and the others, these words seemed to challenge their own sense of right and wrong, such as loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness. However, to Huang Rong, they seemed to be very amusing.

"Although I also had a falling out with my family in the past, I left home out of anger, and besides, I was not the only son in the family." Huang Yaoshi's face was calm.

"It's about the same." Zhuang Bu Ran nodded.

"After traveling around the martial arts world for a few days, something happened that martial artists were very happy to see: in the East China Sea, fragments of various martial arts were discovered."

"Could the East China Sea you mentioned be Peach Blossom Island?" Huang Rong couldn't help but ask.

Zhuang Bu Ran said with regret:
"I don't know which senior master placed so many martial arts on that island and engraved them on the cave walls."

"Unfortunately, most of them had been eroded by the time I discovered them. I had no choice but to use them as a foundation to create various martial arts that suited my own taste."

"If that's really what you said, no wonder you knew all my moves so well before." Huang Rong paused.
"But since you and my father share the same circumstances, why are your martial arts skills so different now?"

"As the saying goes, a miss is as good as a mile. I cured my stubborn illness myself, hoping to improve my health. While traveling around the martial arts world, I also acquired a lot of physical training skills."

Zhuang Bu Ran smiled lazily:

"In this case, the martial arts styles are naturally very different. After all this talk, it still seems too superficial. Why not show us the real thing with your own hands?"

"After all, words can deceive, but the skills you possess cannot." He casually clasped his hands together.

"In this world, my name is Zhuang Bushan, and I would like to learn a few things from the East Evil."

Huang Yaoshi gestured for Huang Rong to step aside and said:

"At your age, do you think you can defeat me?"

"Dad, don't underestimate him. Some time ago, he fought with Qigong for two or three hundred rounds and never lost." Huang Rong reminded quickly.

"The Beggar of the North, Hong Qi?" Huang Yaoshi was surprised.

"That's right. The two of them fought for over a month without a clear winner. Not only that, this Zhuang took the opportunity to secretly learn Qi Gong's 'Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms'."

Huang Rong was afraid that her father would be disrespectful and lose to the young man in green robes, so she kept telling him what she knew:

"He not only possesses a body of invulnerable martial arts skills, but also possesses extremely refined skills accumulated over thirty or forty years."

"Seventh Lord once lamented that if he fought against him again in two or three years, he would probably lose more than he won."

After these words were spoken, the expressions of the people present at the green-robed young man changed again and again, becoming much more complicated.

"If you have anything else to say, just say it. I don't mind." Zhuang Bu Ran said calmly.

"Dad, he still has some."

Huang Rong had no idea what politeness meant, but when she was about to continue, she was interrupted by Huang Yaoshi:
"I guess Brother Seven has slacked off over the years, so much so that he can't even defeat a young man under twenty. It looks like I'll be the sole victor at next year's Huashan Sword Contest."

"Well, your boastful and arrogant attitude is quite like my style." Zhuang Bu Ran clapped his hands and laughed.

"Reverse Tiangang."

Huang Yaoshi jumped out silently, swung the jade flute in his hand, and hit the vital point on Zhuang Bu Ran's chest.

Zhuang Bu Ran misstepped his feet and used the "Lingbo Weibu" technique to dodge the attack.

Then, Huang Yaoshi used the flute as a sword. His sword style was elegant and graceful, and he targeted all the major acupuncture points on the body, which dazzled others. There was another sticky force inside him, and he would attack from time to time.

Everyone saw that the young man in green robe had extremely miraculous movements and with his ethereal steps, he easily dodged Huang Yaoshi's attacks.

At this time, a mocking remark appeared:
"So this is the Jade Flute Sword Technique. It's just so-so, nothing special."

Huang Yaoshi's eyes narrowed slightly. At the moment when his right hand drew out the sword, he suddenly slapped his left hand and launched an extremely sharp palm force into the air, attacking the young man in green robe from the front and back.

Zhuang Bu Ran stumbled and seemed about to fall, but he took half a step to the left and dodged it.

Huang Yaoshi didn't take it seriously and his attacks became more fierce. He used the "Jade Flute Sword Technique" with his right hand and the "Splitting Air Palm" with his left hand, but the young man in green robe still dodged them one after another.

"Jade Flute Sword, every move hits the air, splitting the air with your palm, splitting the air with your palm."

Zhuang Bu Ran suddenly made a move:

"Let me teach you how to use the Air-Splitting Palm."

With a few "whoosh" sounds, seven or eight fierce and ferocious palm strikes hit Huang Yaoshi's body directly.
