Martial Arts Secret Realm: Only I Can Know the Plot?

Unperturbed that his little scheme had been exposed, Yan Shisan simply asked Sun Fan, "Would you be willing to learn swordsmanship from me?"

Sun Fan immediately knelt down and kowtowed three times to Yan Shisan.

"Master, please accept my bow."

When a master tries to take on a disciple, the crows consciously avoid the situation.

Yan Shisan looked at Sun Fan, and the more he looked, the more he liked him.

But he still has one last test to face.

He said to Sun Fan, "My sword technique is called the Thirteen Deadly Swords. Each of the thirteen swords is faster and more ruthless than the last. With your current strength, you can only learn one sword. Which sword do you want to learn?"

He didn't demonstrate, he only described it.

He wanted to see just how greedy Sun Fan was when it came to martial arts.

Greed is a major taboo in learning swordsmanship.

If you try to do too much, you'll end up with nothing to chew.

He had seen countless superb sword techniques throughout his life, but he still only practiced his own sword.

The Thirteen Deadly Swords that belong to Yan Shisan.

One sword?

Sun Fan said calmly, "Then I'll just learn the sword technique that can kill."

Yan Shisan shook his head: "Every sword strike could kill."

Sun Fan smiled and said, "Then let's learn that sword strike that can kill anyone."

Yan Shisan was about to say something when he suddenly froze.

He suddenly realized that, without knowing when, his journey to Divine Sword Manor had become a death sentence.

A swordsman's most important edge has been lost without him even realizing it.

If you don't even believe in yourself, how can you expect to win?

Swords fight for edge, people fight for pride.

Having figured all this out, Yan Shisan laughed heartily: "Hahahaha, good, I didn't expect it was you who woke me up."

"In that case, you may have to stay with me for a while longer."

Sun Fan heard the system notification again.

Main quest changed.

Main Quest: Follow Yan Shisan to Shenjian Manor

Quest Reward: Yan Shisan's swordsmanship.

From that day on, Yan Shisan began teaching Sun Fan the basics of swordsmanship: horizontal strokes, upward thrusts, slashes, and stabbing.

Experience in facing the enemy, and swordsmanship skills.

He was the only one who wasn't taught sword techniques.

Since he wants to learn the best, then I will teach him the best!

The crow would occasionally chime in, usually offering rebuttals, but his skills were mostly focused on assassination.

The three of them walked towards the Divine Sword Manor at a leisurely pace.

Until one day, they met a woman.

Or rather, that woman had been waiting for them all along.

There were three of them, but the woman was only waiting for one.

She was waiting for Yan Shisan.

She is Murong Qiudi, the eldest daughter of the Murong family of Qixingtang in Jiangnan.

Perhaps no one in the martial arts world knows yet, but Murong Qiudi is actually a master.

He is perhaps the second-best martial artist in the world today, after Xie Xiaofeng and Yan Shisan.

She and Xie Xiaofeng have one child.

Her swordsmanship was also Xie Xiaofeng's swordsmanship.

She was waiting there to demonstrate Xie Xiaofeng's swordsmanship to Yan Shisan.

She wanted Yan Shisan to find the flaws in her swordsmanship.

She wanted Yan Shisan to kill Xie Xiaofeng.

The deeper the love, the more intense the hate; perhaps Murong Qiudi truly loved Xie Xiaofeng deeply when she was young.

Unfortunately, the third young master of Shenjian Manor is destined not to belong to any woman.

With Yan Shisan being asked to leave, Sun Fan also encountered his biggest crisis yet.

In the story, when Murong Qiudi demonstrates Xie Xiaofeng's swordsmanship, there is another person besides Yan Shisan.

Cao Bing, a master of the Diancang School.

He once challenged Yan Shisan, and although he was no match for him, he managed to escape with his life thanks to Yan Shisan's appreciation of his talent.

After that, he kept a close watch on Yan Shisan from the shadows.

As a result, he was able to secretly learn Xie Xiaofeng's swordsmanship.

After secretly learning Xie Xiaofeng's swordsmanship, he couldn't wait to find someone to test his skills against.

They bumped into a crow at the door.

He was originally no match for Crow. Crow had said that he only needed three moves to defeat Cao Bing.

But that was the Cao Bing from before.

Crow had no idea that Cao Bing was using martial arts from the Diancang School at all.

It was the Third Young Master's swordsmanship.

With just one sword strike, the crow was severely wounded and then disappeared without a trace.

Sun Fan dared not gamble that Cao Bing, after severely injuring Crow, might also kill him with a single sword strike.

Therefore, it's best to keep the crows from getting hurt.

Besides, he always thought their group was pretty good.

There's no need to change.

So he said to the crow, "Do you want to know who's inside?"

The crow scoffed, "Tch, I'm not that curious."

Sun Fan continued, "There's a woman inside, an extremely beautiful woman."

The crow remained unmoved: "I've seen women before. No matter how beautiful a woman is, she's just like any other woman in bed."

Sun Fan laughed: "But you've definitely never seen a woman who can use the Third Young Master's sword technique."

What?

Not only the crow, but even the annoying little messenger was the son of Murong Qiudi and Xie Xiaofeng. Xie Xiaodi looked at Sun Fan in surprise.

No swordsman would refuse to witness the Third Young Master's swordsmanship.

If the crow doesn't want to see, he won't come.

When a crow is in a good mood, it is willing to follow the rules.

But now is absolutely not the time to follow the rules.

Without saying a word, Crow led Sun Fan and quietly sneaked inside.

During their infiltration, they also unexpectedly discovered another voyeur—Cao Bing.

However, neither side disturbed the other; their attention was focused on Murong Qiudi.

Or rather, in the sword techniques used by Murong Qiudi.

In the courtyard

Murong Qiudi held up a withered branch and demonstrated Xie Xiaofeng's swordsmanship to Yan Shisan.

Xie Xiaofeng's swordsmanship is not only beautiful, but also perfectly natural, as if swordsmanship is supposed to be like this, full of natural beauty.

However, there is one flaw in it.

Murong Qiudi said to Yan Shisan, "You can tell because my movements were many times slower than his." Yan Shisan believed her calculations were absolutely correct.

A true master's estimation of sword speed is ten times more accurate than a pawnbroker's estimation of the value of goods.

Murong Qiudi said, "When I actually made my move, although I was a little slower than him, it wasn't by much." Yan Shisan couldn't help but believe her.

Now those present finally realized that this delicate and fragile woman was truly a master he had never encountered in his life.

Murong Qiudi said, "Now I am about to make my move."

Yan Shisan asked, "Whom will we deal with?"

Murong Qiudi said, "You."

Yan Shisan let out a soft breath and said, "Do you want to see if I can break this sword strike?" Murong Qiudi replied, "Yes."

Yan Shisan said, "If I break this sword, won't you die by my sword?" Murong Qiudi replied, "You don't need to worry about that."

She is very confident.

Yan Shisan continued, "What if I still can't break this sword strike?...

Murong Qiudi said, "Then you must die!"

She coldly continued, "If you still can't break this sword strike, there's no benefit for either of us to live any longer. I'll have no choice but to kill you!"

She wouldn't allow Xie Xiaofeng's swordsmanship to fall into the hands of a mediocre person.

Even if he is one of the most renowned swordsmen in the martial arts world today.
