Chen Hai's words sounded like a joke, but they were the only feasible solution.

The reason that villain has been at large for so long is simply because of his legs.

Other uses of poison and disguise are merely icing on the cake.

"Those who fought that villain all said that his lightness skill was superb, almost perfect."

"With such high talent in lightness skills, why did he become a thief?"

Li Yun stroked his short beard, clicked his tongue, and shook his head.

"rumor."

"The lightness skill he practiced was the long-lost Wind-Catching Style."

Chen Hai gasped and asked urgently:

"The light-foot technique created by that Wind-Catching Swordsman?"

Seeing Li Yun nod slightly, Chen Hai's last bit of hope was shattered.

Cheng Ye, standing to the side, also looked at Chen Hai with curiosity:

"Chen Tou'er?"

"What is this?"

Chen Hai took a deep breath, then his voice became heavy:

"The Wind Catcher was an extraordinary person from two hundred years ago. When he first entered the martial arts training, he showed remarkable talent in lightness skills."

"Before entering the True Martial Realm, he was able to use his self-created Wind-Catching Style to stay in the air for the time it takes to drink a cup of tea."

"Most other light-body skills rely on borrowing force, but this Wind-Catching Style is extremely domineering and often produces unimaginable and unpredictable footwork."

Cheng Ye listened, his surprise growing.

"what?"

"Why does this sound somewhat familiar?"

suddenly.

Cheng Ye suddenly had a flash of inspiration; he remembered.

In the third major event of the official 1.0 version, following the main storyline will trigger an opportunity.

One can acquire a light-body skill from it, called "Soaring Through the Wind".

This light-body skill and the "Wind-Catching Style" that Chen Hai is now talking about have almost identical characteristics.

"But I remember that opportunity was..."

Cheng lowered his head in deep thought, a hint of surprise flashing in the depths of his eyes.

"I will try my best to get more people to help us, and try to trap that villain as much as possible," Chen Hai said, trying to comfort Cheng Ye, who looked so heavy-hearted.

At this time.

Cheng also came to his senses.

He calmly looked at Chen Hai, but what he said left the two of them stunned for a moment:

"Chen Tou'er".

"Leave that villain to me."

what? !

Both Chen Hai and Li Yun unconsciously opened their mouths slightly.

They all thought they were hallucinating.

"This, this, Xiao Cheng."

"Although that villain's martial arts skills are not high, his lightness skill is quite remarkable."

"We absolutely cannot let our guard down."

They all knew that Cheng Ye's talent for cultivation was extraordinary.

In such a short time, even with the help of elixirs, to be able to step into the seventh rank of the mortal realm is enough to be considered a genius in a small county town.

In the Southern Sea Prefecture, such talent, even if not top-tier, is still outstanding.

but.

Internal martial arts techniques and internal cultivation methods differ from each other.

Some say the former is a prodigy, able to dominate simply by relying on his powerful internal energy.

Some people excel at the latter, using their skills to launch surprise attacks and often ensure their own safety.

In general, internal energy and true qi are actually more important.

When cultivation reaches its peak, one can overcome all laws with a single force.

Chen Hai was afraid of upsetting Cheng Ye, so he gave the same explanation.

but.

Cheng smiled and said slowly:

"actually."

"My talent for light footwork is not bad either."

Seeing that Cheng was stubborn, Li Yun stepped in to smooth things over:

How about this?

"One of the head镖师 (bodyguards/escorts) of my Shengyuan Trading Company happens to be quite skilled in light-body techniques."

"Why don't you two have a little sparring match first?"

Chen Hai nodded, feeling that Cheng Ye really should see a wider world.

"Come."

Not long after.

A middle-aged man with a calm demeanor, dressed in a dark, close-fitting outfit, came to the courtyard in front of the reception hall.

"Zhang the镖头's martial arts cultivation is similar to that of the villain, both at the sixth rank of the mortal realm."

"Today, let's have a contest to see who can move lightly."

Li Yun said to Chen Hai in a low voice.

"Xiao Cheng has great talent."

"Sooner or later I will be able to enter the highest halls of society, and the sky's the limit for birds to fly."

Chen Hai trusted Cheng Ye a lot, believing that he wouldn't be discouraged by a single sparring match.

not to mention.

This is also a good thing.

otherwise.

When someone thinks they are an extremely talented person, they will feel frustrated once they enter the third hall and find that their supposedly outstanding talent is everywhere there.

It's a good thing to temper Cheng Ye's arrogance in advance.

Just as the two were discussing in hushed tones...

In the courtyard.

The exchange has already begun.

Zhang Biaotou's figure suddenly disappeared, transforming into a gust of wind that swept towards Cheng Ye.

The speed was so fast that even Chen Hai couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

At the same time, he was mentally calculating how to persuade this镖头 (bodyguard) Zhang to come.

Cheng remained calm and unmoved even as Zhang, the镖头 (bodyguard), attacked him.

To others, it seemed as if Cheng Ye hadn't reacted at all and was standing there dumbfounded.

until.

A figure in white robes fluttered gracefully, gliding through the air like a startled swan.

Under everyone's incredulous gaze, he dodged Zhang Biaotou's fierce palm strike.

"what?"

When Zhang Biaotou saw that his palm strike had missed, a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.

"What is this? A fleeting glimpse of a swan in the snow?"

Not far away.

The old constable Chen Hai naturally recognized at a glance what kind of light-body skill Cheng Ye was using.

"hiss!"

"When did he start practicing this lightness skill?"

At least.

Before Cheng Ye went to Lingzhi County and was trapped in Nanming Prefecture, Cheng Ye had never been exposed to light-body skills.

In such a short time, he actually mastered this lightness skill to such a high level.

Chen Hai couldn't help but rub his eyes.

yard.

Zhang Biao Tou shouted a cheer, and then his figure became even more ghostly!

Zhang, the镖头 (bodyguard), was somewhat annoyed that his employer had summoned him here today to spar with a young man in terms of lightness skills.

He had a reputation in the martial arts world of Nanming Prefecture for his outstanding lightness skills.

Why would he want to compete with a mere brat?

Just now.

He still harbored some contempt for him.

But an expert's skill is immediately apparent.

At such close range, Cheng Ye actually used his lightness skill to avoid his attack, which shows that the young man in front of him has extraordinary lightness skill.

call!

As if a gust of wind had swept by, Zhang Biaotou transformed into a blur and entangled with Cheng Ye, his sixth-grade internal energy surging through his meridians.

visible.

Zhang Biaotou has become serious and is using his strongest skills.

Upon seeing this, Cheng drew his long sword.

Since you've decided to show your skills, then show some of your true strength and put Chen Hai at ease.

hum!

The long sword rang softly.

Cheng Ye moved with unpredictable steps, like a fleeting glimpse of a startled swan leaving no trace, before the blade struck down.

"It's the Wave-Piercing Blade!"

"Has Xiao Cheng become so proficient in this sword technique?"

This first cut immediately caught Chen Hai's eye!

"drink!"

Zhang Biao Tou gave a soft shout, and his palms gradually turned black.

This is his most proficient palm technique, "Iron Sand Palm," besides his lightness skill.

clang!

When the blade and the palm clashed, they produced a metallic clang.

This moment.

Zhang the镖头's expression changed slightly.

however.

Cheng didn't intend to continue.

Clang!

Clang!

Clang!

With the blessing of the "Stunning Snow Steps" technique, each charge of the "Layered Waves Blade" was almost perfect.

Zhang, the镖头 (bodyguard), could only struggle to hold on, and found it increasingly difficult to defend himself, with Cheng Ye completely seizing the initiative.

The blade flashed.

Chen Hai and Li Yun stared in disbelief at the scene.

"I'm not fighting anymore!"

Feeling the force emanating from the blade, it increasingly resembled a raging storm.

Zhang, the镖头 (bodyguard), blocked the long sword with a palm strike and hurriedly shouted!
