Zongwu: Eavesdropping on the inner voices, the female warriors have become strange

Chen Liu really didn't want to bring so many people with him on this trip to the Great Sui. Although Zhong Ling and Mu Wanqing had both reached the Xiantian stage, too many people wouldn't be convenient for movement, and it would also easily reveal his whereabouts. After all, going to the Great Sui this time, whether to search for the "Eternal Life Secret" or the Evil Emperor's relics, was extremely dangerous.

The Secret of Immortality is one of the four great books in the Sui Dynasty. Although no one has mastered it before, its reputation is too great. If it were known, many people would rush to grab it, even Yang Guang would come to grab it.

The Evil Emperor's relic was a treasure treasure shared by the six sects of the Great Sui Dynasty's Demonic Sect. Zhu Yuyan and Shi Zhixuan weren't the only ones seeking it. If the rest of the Demonic Sect knew they had it, would they let them go? Impossible. Xie Ji Sect's You Niaojuan, Ding Jiuzhong, Zhou Laotan, and Jin Huanzhen had dared to kill even Shi Qingxuan for the relic, let alone them.

This trip to the Great Sui Dynasty was too dangerous, so Chen Liu didn't want to bring so many people. Apart from Wang Yuyan, whose strength was above that of a Grandmaster, he didn't want to bring anyone else. Of course, Shi Feixuan, Qin Mengyao, and Wanwan were not included.

Although Chen Liu didn't want to take Zhong Ling, Mu Wanqing, Mu Nianci and the other girls with him, he couldn't say it directly, so he said, "I'm thinking that it's been almost a year since you left Dali. Your mother must miss you very much. Don't you miss them?"

Huang Rong said quietly, "Brother Chenliu wants to get rid of us again and go enjoy some time alone with Sister Yuyan."

Chen Liu:......

Chapter 247: Thirteen Deadly Swords (Part )

After breakfast, Chen Liu followed Huang Rong to the cave where Zhou Botong lived. The cave was located on the outskirts of Peach Blossom Island, a little way from the Peach Blossom Island manor. Furthermore, they had to walk along the small paths through the peach and bamboo forests, so it would take at least several miles to reach it.

"Old naughty boy." After arriving at the cave, Huang Rong shouted inside from the entrance.

Zhou Botong was contemplating his martial arts with his eyes closed when he heard a clear, daughter's voice. Overjoyed, he quickly ran to the cave entrance and shouted, "Little Huang Rong, you're back! When will you cook the meals you owe me?"

Huang Rong is quite heartless. To escape Peach Blossom Island, she used three meals to trick Zhou Botong into a fight with her father. But since her escape, she's forgotten Zhou Botong. It's been months since she returned, and she hasn't even visited him once, let alone cooked for him. If it weren't for Chen Liu's desire to see Zhou Botong, who knows when she would have visited him.

Chen Liu looked at the old naughty boy and saw a man with long hair that reached down to his waist, long eyebrows and beard, and even his nose and mouth were covered.

【This is the old naughty boy. 】

The old naughty boy's hair and beard were gray. Although they were not completely white, it had been many years since he had shaved them. They were as hairy as a savage and looked a little scary.

"Huh?" Zhou Botong saw that Huang Rong was not the only one who came, but also a handsome man. He immediately asked Huang Rong with some disdain, "Little Huang Rong, is this your lover?"

Zhou Botong was madly in love with martial arts, finding the practice of martial arts to be endlessly enjoyable. But the world's people are incredibly foolish. Some love studying and becoming officials, some love gold and jade, and some love stunning women. But are the joys of these even one-tenth of what martial arts practice offers? To the Old Boy, those who cherish gold, silver, jewelry, beauty, power, and wealth are fools. Women are no match for martial arts. A man can go without food, marry a woman, or even sacrifice his life, but martial arts training is absolutely essential.

The Old Boy practiced martial arts not for fame and fortune, revenge, or to be competitive and strong so as to dominate the world. It was purely out of an irresistible curiosity and love for martial arts.

Huang Rong blushed slightly, and without refutation, she said to the old naughty boy, "Old naughty boy, this is my brother Chen Liu."

"Chen Liu greets the Old Boy." Chen Liu bowed to the Old Boy.

"You're not bad, kid." The old naughty boy said with some satisfaction.

The Old Naughty Boy was born to be mischievous and playful. He didn't get upset when people scolded him or made him angry, and he didn't take it to heart when people loved and spoiled him. As long as he could play pranks on others, he was happy. This is how he got the nickname Old Naughty Boy. If Chen Liu had called him "Uncle" or "Senior" like his nephews and grandsons did, he wouldn't have bothered to pay any attention. But when Chen Liu called him "Old Naughty Boy", it cheered him up, and he felt that Chen Liu, like him, was not a person who followed the rules.

Huang Rong took out the wine and food from the basket she had brought and placed it at the entrance of the cave. The old naughty boy was overjoyed and took the lead in picking up the wine pot. He uncorked it, took a sniff, and then took a gulp. He sighed, "It's still the wine you brought, little Huang Rong, that's so fragrant. Your father was so stingy that the wine he had the servants bring me was bland and tasteless, without any kick at all."

Huang Rong chuckled.

The old naughty boy took another sip, then glanced at Chen Liu with a sidelong glance, sighed, and said, "Little Huang Rong, did you run away to find him?"

"Yes."

"They are all fools!"

Chen Liu smiled faintly, unconcerned. He knew Zhou Botong loved martial arts more than women, and he'd even stumbled over women before, so he kept his distance from them. Therefore, he believed that anyone who liked women, or married a wife, was a fool.

However, Huang Rong was a little angry and said, "Old naughty boy, you are not allowed to say Brother Chenliu, otherwise I will not bring you wine or food."

"Okay, okay, I won't say anything." The Old Boy said he wouldn't say anything, but from the expression on his face, he just thought Huang Rong and Chen Liu were more stupid.

Chen Liu and Huang Rong did not stay too long. They chatted with the Old Boy for a while, and after he had eaten and drunk his fill, they left together.

The Old Boy loves to play, but he is not stupid. If Chen Liu's goal is too obvious, he can easily see through it. So if you want to obtain the Nine Yin Scriptures, it will take some time, and it is best to become friends with the Old Boy first.

After returning to the manor, Chen Liu saw Mu Nianci, Zhong Ling, Mu Wanqing, Zhou Zhiruo and other girls. Some of them were practicing sword, some were practicing boxing, some were fighting, and some were watching from the side.

When the women saw Chen Liu and Huang Rong return, they stopped. Wang Yuyan came forward and asked, "Husband, how are you?"

"How can it be so fast? I just met Zhou Botong first and got to know him." Chen Liu said with a smile.

Chen Liu clapped his hands and said to the girls, "Come here."

"Husband, what's the matter?" Mu Wanqing came over and asked.

"I learned a set of sword techniques in Daming. I think it's pretty good, and I'm going to teach it to you."

Currently, Mu Nianci, Mu Wanqing, and the other girls practiced Yuenu Sword the most. They didn't have the savvy of Chen Liu and Wang Yuyan, so they didn't practice many sword techniques. Most of them only chose one or two sword techniques, and one or two fist and palm techniques. Moreover, biting off more than one can chew is not good enough. In martial arts, concentration is more important than quantity. Rather than learning a multitude of sword and palm techniques, it's better to master one or two sword and palm techniques until they are as proficient as one's own arms.

Murong Fu suffered from this disadvantage. His talent and understanding were insufficient, but in order to maintain his Murong family's reputation of "returning the favor as you would have done them," he learned a large amount of useless skills, wasting a lot of his time and energy. If he had put that time and energy into internal cultivation and family heirlooms like the Dragon City Sword Technique, the Fighting Stars Shift, and the Canghe Finger, his current strength would definitely be much greater than this.

The Thirteen Deadly Swords that Chen Liu learned from Yan Shisan were very powerful, even stronger than the Yue Girl Sword that he had improved. So he wanted to teach this set of swordsmanship to the women to increase their strength.

"Husband, what kind of swordsmanship is this?" Mu Nianci asked.

"The Thirteen Deadly Swords." Chen Liu took Mu Nianci's longsword from her hand and said, "It's called the Thirteen Deadly Swords, but there are fifteen of them in total. The first thirteen swords are a set of extremely powerful sword techniques that progress from simple to complex. The subsequent changes in each move also implicitly complement the flaws of the previous move. After learning this set of sword techniques, as long as you practice it skillfully, and your cultivation level is not much higher than yours, ordinary people will not be able to defeat you."

After a pause, Chen Liu continued, "However, the fourteenth sword transforms from a 'killing technique' into a 'law.' You can't learn it yet. To evolve the fourteenth sword, you must at least reach the Grandmaster level. As for the fifteenth sword, I can't say for sure. This sword is called the 'Sword of Death.' It is said that when it is unleashed, the sword energy forms a field of absolute stillness. Anyone or anything that enters this field will be instantly strangled."

Chapter 248: Thirteen Deadly Swords (Part )

Chen Liu had a system, although it was a system without energy and had already died. However, after Yan Shisan demonstrated the Thirteen Deadly Swords to him, the system was still able to automatically evolve the fourteenth and fifteenth swords and instill them into him.

Originally, with Chen Liu's current level of cultivation, he would not be able to use the fourteenth sword, but Chen Liu's situation was somewhat special. His mental power was extremely strong. He developed spiritual consciousness in the innate stage, and was able to absorb the essence of heaven and earth into his true qi, possessing the ability of a master.

However, Chen Liu had never dared to use the fourteenth sword before. He felt that this sword would put a huge burden on him. If he used it, it would definitely drain all his true energy.

As for the fifteenth sword, "Sword of Death", Chen Liu knew how to perform it, but he couldn't perform it. Moreover, the fifteenth sword instilled in him by the system was slightly different from Yan Shisan's fifteenth sword in the original novel.

In the original novel, Yan Shisan's fifteenth sword technique is described as "a sword technique that shouldn't exist in this world." To unleash the full power of the fifteenth sword technique, it requires the accumulation of momentum from the previous fourteen. Furthermore, once the fifteenth sword technique is unleashed, it creates a field of sword energy, placing the user at risk of a fatal backlash from the energy, absorbing both the attacker and the target. This is a sword technique that promises mutual destruction.

However, Chen Liu was able to influence the sword energy of the fifteenth sword he unleashed, preventing it from attacking the wielder. This fifteenth sword was somewhat similar to the twenty-third sword of the Sword Saint in the Wind and Cloud World.

Sword Twenty-Three freezes the space, and only the caster can move freely within it. However, if someone attacks from the outside, as long as the power is strong enough, they can break through the sword energy barrier of Sword Twenty-Three.

The fifteenth of the Thirteen Deadly Swords also used sword energy to create a realm of absolute stillness, strangling any living being that entered. There was no way to break this move; the only option was to endure it until the caster's Qi was exhausted. If they couldn't withstand it, they would die.

The sword energy field of the fifteenth sword of the Thirteen Deadly Swords consumes a huge amount of true energy. With the amount of true energy Chen Liu has now, he doesn't even dare to use the fourteenth sword, let alone the fifteenth sword.

Wang Yuyan, Lianxing, Mu Nianci, and the others were all shocked upon hearing this. Forming an absolutely static sword energy field? That was something only an immortal could do. Could the Thirteen Deadly Swords actually accomplish this? While that would require the fifteenth sword strike, it was still incredibly powerful.

"Husband." Wang Yuyan was very interested in the Thirteen Deadly Swords and said quickly, "I want to learn it."

"I will definitely teach you." Chen Liu smiled and said, "But I can only teach you thirteen swords. The fourteenth sword requires personal understanding because it involves the law. I can't teach you that. If you can understand it, then you can understand it. If you can't understand it, then you can't understand it. There is nothing I can do."

The reason why Chen Liu was able to perform the fourteenth and fifteenth swords was due to the system, not something he figured out himself, so he had no way to teach him.

"Okay!" Wang Yuyan nodded quickly.

"Come on, let's go somewhere else."

Lian Xing looked at Shi Feixuan, Qin Mengyao, and Wanwan, who had also been left behind, and suddenly felt a little depressed. There were twenty women, and Chen Liu had even brought Cheng Ying with him, leaving only these four. Chen Liu clearly didn't consider them his own.

Chen Liu naturally would not regard Lianxing, Shi Feixuan, Qin Mengyao, and Wanwan as his own people. Although Lianxing, Shi Feixuan and the other two girls had secretly formed an alliance with Wang Yuyan, Chen Liu did not know about it.

Chen Liu was puzzled as to why Lianxing and Qin Mengyao were going with them. Shi Feixuan and Wanwan were understandable; they were from the Great Sui Dynasty, and Chen Liu's next stop was the Great Sui Dynasty, so it made sense for them to go back with him. Qin Mengyao's reasoning about traveling was understandable, but Lianxing was the Second Palace Master of Yihua Palace.

Chen Liu once quietly asked Wang Yuyan what was going on with Lian Xing. Wang Yuyan said that Lian Xing got along well with her and that she wanted to travel with her, as she had never left the Song Dynasty. Although Chen Liu didn't quite believe it, what else could he do with Wang Yuyan's words?

As for Shi Feixuan and Qin Mengyao, they only care about the Way of Heaven. If you fall in love with these two women, they won't play real games with you. They will only play a spiritual game with you to practice the Cihang Sword Canon. When you are no longer useful, they will kick you away. Xu Ziling and Han Bai ended up like this.

As for Wanwan, she's a seductress. Would she like a playboy like me? She'd only use him.

In a forest on Peach Blossom Island, Chen Liu explained the moves of the Thirteen Deadly Swords in detail, and then demonstrated them again to teach the girls.

And with a sword technique, the classmate could easily see the level of comprehension of the girls.

The one with the best comprehension was Wang Yuyan, who almost mastered the technique after only needing Chen Liu to explain and demonstrate it once. After learning the thirteen swords, Wang Yuyan began to deduce and develop the fourteenth sword mentioned by Chen Liu.

The second is Huang Rong. Although Huang Rong is lazy and doesn't like learning martial arts, she is more interested in various miscellaneous studies. However, her comprehension is also not to be underestimated. She can remember everything after Chen Liu explains it once or twice.

Next was Zhou Zhiruo. She only listened to it two or three times and basically had no problem with it.

After them came Jiang Yuyan, Cheng Ying, Lin Shiyin, Qu Feiyan, Mu Nianci, Ah Zhu, Zhong Ling, and Mu Wanqing, all of whom had similar levels of understanding. Then came Ah Bi, Lu Wushuang, Hong Lingbo, Yue Lingshan, and Shui Sheng.

To Chen Liu's surprise, Lin Shiyin's comprehension was surprisingly good. After Chen Liu corrected her several times, she was able to perform the Thirteen Deadly Swords with considerable skill. Of course, mastering the Thirteen Deadly Swords would take a long time; it wasn't enough to just master the form.

By the time Chen Liu had taught all thirteen deadly sword moves to the girls, it was almost dusk.

Chen Liu was about to invite the women back to eat when Wang Yuyan asked, "Husband, can you show us the Fourteenth Sword Technique?"

"The fourteenth sword?" Chen Liu pondered for a while. He also wanted to try it. Even though this sword was a bit of a burden for him, he was now on Peach Blossom Island and with Wang Yuyan by his side, so it should be no problem. He nodded and said, "That's fine."

The first thirteen deadly swords were nothing special; even with their immense power, they still fell within the realm of martial arts. However, with the fourteenth sword, things began to change. Not only were the moves more swift and powerful, but the surrounding vital energy of heaven and earth was also mobilized, forming a vital energy field.

This energy field not only suppressed the opponent's actions, but also affected their mind. Furthermore, the surrounding heaven and earth energy continued to rush towards Chen Liu crazily. As he entered the field, the long sword in Chen Liu's hand also continuously absorbed the heaven and earth energy in the field, and the blade of the long sword emitted a bright white light.

Chen Liu thrust forward lightly, and invisible sword energy instantly rushed forward, sweeping across an area in front of Chen Liu. Nothing within twenty feet of the sword energy could withstand its power. More than ten large trees in the direction of the sword energy were broken in the middle by the sword energy, forming a flat incision, and slowly fell backwards.

Chen Liu's face paled slightly. The fine steel sword in his hand suddenly made a slight cracking sound, followed by more cracking sounds. Cracks appeared on the sword, covering the entire blade within a second or two.

"Wow, so powerful!" Huang Rong, Mu Nianci and other girls were stunned by the destructive power caused by the fourteenth sword.

Chapter 249: The Old Naughty Boy (Part )

The Fourteen Deadly Swords were indeed too much of a burden for Chen Liu. By the time he had finished unleashing the fourteenth sword, the zhenqi in his dantian had already reached its lowest point, practically emptying it with a single blow. Furthermore, his body felt a bit sore, his limbs weak. Even a small child could have knocked him down.

"Husband, how are you?" Chen Liu's face was pale and his shaky body frightened Wang Yuyan. She hurried to Chen Liu, supported his body, put her palms on his back, and injected her Beiming true energy into his body.

"Husband!"

"Brother Chenliu!"

Huang Rong, Mu Nianci and other girls also changed their expressions and gathered around with worried looks on their faces.

"I'm fine." Chen Liu smiled with some difficulty.

At this time, the fine steel sword in Chen Liu's hand finally couldn't hold on, and broke into small pieces, falling to the ground, leaving only the hilt.

Chen Liu glanced at the hilt of the sword in his hand and thought to himself, "It seems the power of the Fourteen Deadly Swords is too great. An ordinary fine steel sword can't withstand it. I need to find a more refined cold iron sword or meteorite iron sword."

"Alright, Yuyan, no need to lose any more Qi." Chen Liu knew there was nothing wrong with his body and that he would be fully recovered after a day or two of rest. It was just that draining all his Qi at once made him feel a little uncomfortable. It seemed like he couldn't do this kind of thing anymore.

"Are you really okay?" Wang Yuyan asked worriedly.

"fine."

At dinner, Huang Rong personally prepared several nourishing dishes for Chen Liu, such as ginseng chicken soup, pigeon soup with ganoderma lucidum, and bird's nest. During the break, Wang Yuyan, Mu Nianci, Mu Wanqing, and the other girls didn't bother him. After all, they had all witnessed Chen Liu's terrifying appearance today and didn't dare to touch him again.
