From the beginning of the game of power, I became the protagonist

Catelyn Tully glared at Chen Hui coldly, her eyes full of undisguised disgust and rejection. She had no intention of paying any attention to him at all. She grabbed Bran Stark and was about to leave.

"Madam," Chen Hui called out softly upon seeing this, and took two steps forward to ask, "May I ask if Lord Stark has decided to go to King's Landing?"

Catelyn Tully paused when she heard this, and looked at Chen Hui with a hint of suspicion. She narrowed her eyes and asked, "How do you know this? Who told you?"

"That's actually not hard to guess, ma'am," Chen Hui replied respectfully. "I heard that His Majesty the King came to Winterfell immediately after the former Prime Minister passed away. Considering the past friendship between His Majesty the King and Lord Stark, the purpose of his visit is most likely to invite Lord Stark to King's Landing, and Lord Stark is likely to agree."

"You are not qualified to participate in these matters." Catelyn Tully said coldly: "Don't forget your identity."

"I haven't forgotten that, ma'am." Chen Hui, completely free of Jon Snow's burden, replied frankly, "I simply wish to ask Madam to advise Lord Stark that if he truly decides to go to King's Landing, please take me with you."

Seeing Catelyn Tully's eyebrows furrowed slightly upon hearing this, Chen Hui explained respectfully, "Since His Majesty has personally invited us, I'm afraid the situation in King's Landing is not simple. Considering Lord Stark's safety, I hope to go with him and do my part to repay the Stark family for their years of nurturing us."

"" Staring at Chen Hui's face for a long time, the secret letter she received last night flashed through her mind. After a moment of silence, Catelyn Tully slowly said, "I will talk to Eddard about this matter. You are not allowed to mention it again until there is a result."

Seeing Chen Hui nod in agreement, Catelyn Tully did not stay any longer and quickly left with the curious Bran Stark, accompanied by Bran's direwolf, Summer.

Chen Hui did not feel that there was anything wrong with Catelyn Tully's indifferent attitude. As the wife of a top noble family, she watched her husband's illegitimate child coming into the house in front of her all day long, and she did not take action to get rid of Jon Snow. It was already a kind heart of a bodhisattva. What did a few cold words mean? Thinking about the treatment of King Robert's illegitimate children, Jon Snow should really thank God.

As for whether Duke Ed would agree to let him go with him, Chen Hui said that it didn't matter at all. If it could be done with a legitimate reason, that would be the best. Otherwise, even if he went on his own, it wouldn't be a big deal. He was not a native bound by the etiquette and laws of this world. The Chinese have always been a people who believe that no one is born without a son.

To be honest, if the Stark family had not treated Jon Snow so well, especially Lord Eddard who protected him at great risk, Chen Hui's way of completing the task would have been to cripple Eddard Stark directly. Naturally, he would not have gone to King's Landing if he could not walk.

While he was thinking about all sorts of things in his mind, he returned to Winterfell with his own direwolf, Bai Ling. It seemed that this special white wolf did not notice that his master had changed his heart. He was still very close to Chen Hui and was inseparable from him whenever he went in and out.

Bending down, he picked up the little wolf and stroked its smooth fur affectionately. Chen Hui couldn't help but feel a strange feeling in his heart, as if he was connected by blood to the white wolf in his arms.

Skinchanger—one of Jon Snow’s innate abilities. Unexpectedly, Chen Hui also inherited this. Speaking of which, Jon Snow actually has both dragon and wolf bloodlines. The wolf bloodline makes him a skinchanger, so what kind of gift can the dragon bloodline bring him?

Just as Chen Hui gradually fell into deep thought, a sound of breaking wind suddenly came from behind him. Without even turning back, Chen Hui reached back and easily caught a light pine cone. He said with a hint of amusement, "Arya, I know it's you. Come out."

Looking at the young girl who was jumping out from behind him, and her unhappy and depressed expression, Chen Hui rubbed her little head lovingly and asked with a little curiosity: "What's wrong, Arya, who made you angry?"

"Hmph, Father and Robb went hunting with the King, but they refused to take me with them." Arya Stark pouted in dissatisfaction, then asked with great interest, "How did you do that just now? How did you catch the pine cone I threw without even turning around? Can you teach me?"

Chen Hui was silent for a moment, recalling Arya's extraordinary swordsmanship in the TV series. Suddenly, an idea emerged in his mind. He slowly put the white wolf down from his arms, picked up two branches from the ground, and handed them over. He smiled and said, "How about this, Arya, let's play a game. Can you draw a circle with your left hand and a square with your right hand at the same time?"

Chapter 4: Remember not to bully the poor young

In Jin-style martial arts novels, besides the nearly immortal "True Yuenu Sword," there are four strongest sword techniques: the invincible Tai Chi Sword Technique, the unparalleled offensive "Nine Swords of Dugu," the incredibly swift "Evil-Defeating Sword Technique," and the equally renowned "Jade Girl Pure Heart Sword Technique."

As for the "Black Iron Sword Technique" and the "Six Meridians Divine Sword", Chen Hui said that in essence they are not sword techniques at all.

Although gold-based martial arts rarely have strict gender restrictions, invisible bottlenecks still exist; for example, with the same book "Jade Girl Heart Sutra", Lin Chaoying and Xiaolongnu can both practice to the level of the Five Supremes, while the talented Yang Guo can only use it to lay a foundation; even the top-level magic "Nine Yin Scriptures", which is practiced to a high level by all men, even women as smart as Huang Rong and Zhou Zhiruo are only at the level of first-class masters. As for the yellow-shirted woman, it is obvious that she still uses the martial arts of "Jade Girl Heart Sutra" as the foundation, and the "Nine Yin Divine Claw" is just used temporarily to teach Zhou Zhiruo a lesson.

Therefore, if we talk about the most powerful sword technique in the gold system that is most suitable for women to use, apart from the long-lost "True Yue Goddess Sword", the only one left is the "Jade Girl Pure Heart Sword Technique" of the "Ancient Tomb School".

However, to truly master this supreme sword technique, the threshold is no lower than the other three sword techniques. The "Two-Handed Fighting" technique is only the basics. The most important thing is that the practitioner must be extremely passionate and have a rare talent for swordsmanship. Otherwise, he will not be able to comprehend the essence of this sword technique driven by "emotion".

In short, in the world of The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, among the women Chen Hui met, except for the woman in yellow, no one could truly learn this set of swordsmanship. Even Chen Hui himself was able to master it only after the "Nine Yang Divine Art" was perfected, relying on the plug-in feature of "all martial arts in the world can be used".

In fact, even the left circle and right square of the first level were not truly mastered by Chen Hui until that time. After all, he was just a veteran who had been in modern society for decades. How could he have such a high-end thing as the Pure Heart?

Therefore, seeing Arya Stark complete the first level of the test almost effortlessly, Chen Hui began to doubt his life. He stared blankly at the perfectly calibrated left circle and right square on the ground for a long time before forcing out a slightly awkward smile and asking, "Okay, that's good. Arya, have you played this game before?"

"No." Arya Stark asked excitedly, "Why is it difficult? I think it's quite simple."

"Haha, haha..." Staring at Arya Stark's innocent and excited expression, Chen Hui resisted the urge to ravage her little face and nodded slightly bitterly, "It's quite simple... Then let's move on to the next level."

Unlike the Old Boy who only treated "Double-Handed Fighting" as a game, after realizing the auxiliary role of this set of skills to the "Jade Girl Pure Heart Sword Technique", the "Ancient Tomb Sect" spent decades to develop a complete and targeted training system to lay a solid foundation for learning the "Jade Girl Pure Heart Sword Technique".

As time went on, seeing Arya Stark completing a series of exercises for "Two-Handed Combat" with great success, Chen Hui felt a little numb but also had to sigh sincerely that Arya was worthy of being the chosen one in the TV series who could kill the "Night King" with her own hands. She was indeed a rare swordsmanship genius.

Just when Chen Hui was about to teach the martial arts immediately, a sound of footsteps suddenly came from not far away, and then he saw Jaime Lannister and Cersei Lannister, a pair of dogs and bitches, coming together.

One has to admit that judging from their appearance alone, this pair of golden siblings are indeed very pleasing to the eye. However, considering what they have done, Chen Hui can't help but feel a little nauseous and ashamed from the bottom of his heart.

After all, for a modern person, even cousins ​​cannot marry each other, let alone this pair of siblings who have the same father and mother.

The level of incest is only surpassed by the bird gods in Greek mythology.

Considering that this practice seemed to be quite common in this era, and even the half-Targaryen in his body was a staunch supporter of this behavior, Chen Hui vaguely felt a little disgusted with himself, as if something important had been tarnished.

However, no matter how disdainful he felt in his heart, at least at this moment, Chen Hui and this couple were still very different in status, so he immediately pulled Arya to stand up straight and bowed to the two of them.

In the moment they passed each other, Cersei Lannister glanced at Chen Hui, who bowed his head in salute, and then focused her gaze on Arya Stark. She seemed to be kindly admonishing him, "A noble lady of the Stark family should not stay with a lowly bastard. This will lower your status."

Noticing that Arya Stark seemed to want to argue, Chen Hui, who didn't want to cause trouble, quickly pulled her hand tightly, signaling her not to refute Cersei Lannister.

After all, he knew very well how vicious this woman's heart was.

Seeing Arya's indignant but silent look after hearing this, Cersei Lannister sneered disdainfully, and then walked into Winterfell with Jaime Lannister, who looked like he was enjoying the show, and soon disappeared from sight.

Perhaps it was because they didn't see any lowly people in their eyes, so neither of them noticed that Chen Hui's fingers had just moved slightly, secretly sending out a feminine wind that hit Cersei's vital point, making this woman feel very uncomfortable for the next few days, so that this man and woman would not be like dogs in heat, looking for a place to mate at any time.

"Don't worry about it, that's just how she is." Just as the two figures completely disappeared, Tyrion Lannister, also shimmering with gold, but only half the size, suddenly appeared from nowhere. He drank from a bottle of wine and quipped, "Anyway, except for that handsome brother, she doesn't care about anyone, including my dwarf brother."

Seeing Chen Hui's indifferent expression after hearing this, Tyrion Lannister, who had originally planned to just make a joke and leave, suddenly became interested and asked curiously, "How does it feel to be called lowly in public? Don't you feel very uncomfortable?"

Chen Hui knew that Tyrion Lannister was speaking out of pure curiosity, not out of any intention to insult him. After all, he himself was the target of discrimination. So, he pulled the somewhat indignant Arya Stark aside and shrugged nonchalantly, saying, "You can't choose your birth, can you? But you can choose your future. Perhaps one day I'll make this noble queen understand the meaning of 'It's better to bully an old man than a poor young man.'"

"'It is better to deceive an old man than a young man in poverty'..." Chewing on this well-known golden line, Tyrion Lannister's expression suddenly became a little dazed. After a long while, he stared at Chen Hui with complicated eyes and said hesitantly, "Perhaps you can really do it. I look forward to that day."

With that, this 'little devil', who could also be called the chosen one, turned and left. However, his back looked somewhat desolate.

Chapter 5: Robbery is the fastest way to make money

After being interrupted by the three Lannister siblings, Chen Hui no longer had the intention to teach them his skills immediately. He returned to Winterfell with Arya Stark, who was full of curiosity.

Since the adult men had already accompanied the king on a hunting trip, and the minors were being kept under close watch by the Duchess, Chen Hui returned to his room after instructing Arya Stark not to tell anyone about what had just happened, lest he wander around and cause trouble.

Well, another point is that after what happened between Jaime and Cersei, Chen Hui suddenly felt a little averse to being alone with his cousin Arya Stark, and decided to wait for two days before considering the matter of passing on his skills.

As for the opinions of Mr. and Mrs. Ed, it doesn't matter at all. If such a talented person is not well cultivated, it will definitely be a sin that will be punished by heaven. If they object, the worst thing that can happen is that they can elope with Arya. Anyway, this little girl is very rebellious.

Hmm... How come things became so ambiguous while we were talking? It's all because of Jaime and Cersei, that couple. I'm feeling a bit weird too.

After closing all the doors and windows again, Chen Hui took out a pen and paper from the storage room, intending to make a detailed plan for teaching Arya the skills.

The path of cultivation sounds complicated, but to sum it up it's just the old sayings like 'Dharma, friends, wealth and land'. As for the techniques, they are all ready-made. Just take the 'Postnatal Internal Alchemy' as the foundation, supplemented by the 'Ancient Tomb School's' light swordsmanship, and with my own careful teaching, there will definitely be no problem.

The more troublesome things are 'wealth' and 'land'. Although the Stark family is the top noble family that commands the North, financial resources have never been their strong point. It is probably too much to expect Duke Eddard to pay.

Although he brought some gold from the previous world, it could only be used for emergency purposes at most. It was definitely not enough to train a true disciple.

The poor are good at literature but the rich are good at martial arts. Learning martial arts costs a lot, especially if you want to learn real kung fu, the cost is astronomical.

In the previous life, if it weren't for the dedicated cultivation of the Wudang Sect and the Sky Eagle Sect, and the powerful blessing of the two rare treasures, the 'Kunlun Fairy Peach' and the 'Bodhi Snake Gallbladder', it would not have been so easy for Chen Hui to practice the peerless martial art "Nine Yang Divine Art" to the level of perfection at the age of 16.

The top martial arts in the low-level martial arts world are so difficult to practice, let alone the "Post-natal Internal Alchemy" which is more than ten times more difficult. Thinking of this, Chen Hui fell into deep thought and wrote down a series of names such as "Lannister", "Baratheon", "Tyrell" and so on on the paper one by one in Chinese characters, and finally drew a huge check mark behind the name of "Euron Greyjoy".

Euron Greyjoy, a notorious but also wealthy legendary pirate, is said to have plundered the entire world, even the ruined Valyria, from which he found a large number of super-divine equipment such as the "Dragon Horn" and the "Valy Armor".

Although this is not explained in the TV series, considering that a lean camel is bigger than a horse, even if Euron Greyjoy's robbery ability is only 10% of the level in the novel version, it is definitely more than enough to train an Arya Stark.

It just so happens that this guy has been expelled from the Iron Islands and has no powerful force backing him up, so he can be used as a soft persimmon to squeeze.

And if his luck is good and he has been to Valyria, then he would make a lot of money. After all, Chen Hui is also very curious about this once legendary place.

As for how to find this bastard, Chen Hui said it was a piece of cake. He didn't know where Euron Greyjoy was, so how could he not know where Balon Greyjoy was? As long as he killed this sinister old man, there would be no worry that Euron Greyjoy would not come to him on his own initiative. Then he would be eaten clean... No, it should be eaten alive.

Well, it’s such a happy decision.

The problem of "wealth" has been solved, and the problem of "land" can only be put on hold for the time being. After all, the most likely "paradise" in this world is the former Valyria. It is better to solve the problem of Euron Greyjoy first and then make long-term plans. If it really doesn't work, we can only ask the "Mother of Dragons" Daenerys for help.

He slowly put down the pen in his hand and stared at the plan that had unknowingly filled a large sheet of paper. After confirming again and again that there were no omissions, Chen Hui put all the paper and pen into the space.

Touching his slightly hungry stomach, Chen Hui realized that several hours had passed without him noticing, and he seemed to have not eaten since last night.

He stood up and opened the door, intending to find something to eat when he saw the Young Wolf, Robb Stark, hurrying over. Seeing Chen Hui, he grabbed him and said, "Jon, come with me! Father wants to see you."

Chapter 6: Convincing Duke Ed

When Chen Hui saw Lord Eddard, he discovered that Benjen Stark, a member of the Night's Watch, was also there.

Seeing Chen Hui approaching, Benjen Stark immediately went forward and hugged him warmly, saying with a smile, "I haven't seen you since last night. I thought you were sick, but you still look lively."

Chen Hui feigned a bitter smile upon hearing this, but didn't respond. His ban from the banquet was Duchess Catelyn Tully's order, and it was his due as a bastard. Hearing this, he felt he would be utterly irritated and frustrated.

Realizing that he had made a slip of the tongue, Benjen Stark laughed to ease the awkwardness and chatted about some family matters. Then, Lord Eddard, with a serious face, said, "Catelin said you also wanted to go to King's Landing."

"Yes, Lord Stark." Not wanting to be noticed by Lord Eddard, Chen Hui pretended to be Jon Snow and replied, "If you have decided to go, I would like to accompany you."

"why?"

"Because I'm worried, Lord Stark," Chen Hui replied seriously. "There have been quite a few unexpected incidents recently. King's Landing is not within our sphere of influence, so perhaps something unexpected will happen."

"I will bring enough guards and vassals, and they will protect my safety." Lord Eddard knew very well how sensitive Jon Snow's true identity was. If possible, he hoped that the child would never get close to King's Landing in his life, especially not stay within the sight of Robert Baratheon.

"Lord Stark, I'm worried about you, and Arya and the others as well." Chen Hui sighed deeply, turned to look at Benjen Stark beside him, and pleaded sincerely, "I had originally decided to ask Uncle Benjen to take me to the Wall soon to become a Night's Watchman dedicated to the Far North. But the King's sudden arrival has made me very nervous. I don't want to be thousands of miles away and helpless when something happens to the people I care about. I just hope that if the emergency really comes, I can do something, even if it's just a little bit more."

Chen Hui's words were not acting. In fact, these were also the inner voice of the original owner, Jon Snow. Many years later, he always regretted that when the tragedy happened, he was at the Wall and could only watch the entire Stark family fall apart and do nothing.

"Edard, I think Jon is right." Benjen Stark was well aware of the danger of Lord Eddard's journey, so he nodded in agreement. "The boy's intentions are very good. I think you should seriously consider it."

"Yes, father." Young Wolf Robb Stark also echoed: "If Jon goes with us, I will feel more at ease."

Seeing that his brother and son both agreed, Duke Ed couldn't help but feel a little relieved. After hesitating for a while, he slowly said, "You go back first. I will think about it today and give you an answer tomorrow."

"As you command, Lord Stark." Chen Hui nodded and then continued, "There's one more thing. If we can go to King's Landing together, I hope you can consider one more thing."

Having said this, Chen Hui paused for a moment and said, "I hope you will allow me to teach Arya swordsmanship."

Seeing the three people present frowning slightly after hearing this, Chen Hui continued to explain, "Lord Stark, the best way to protect someone is to give her the power to protect herself. The future of King's Landing is uncertain, so we are doing this just in case, hoping that the worst will not happen."

"" Duke Ed took a deep breath after hearing this, and after a moment he slowly waved his hand and said: "I will reply to you tomorrow, please leave."

Chen Hui nodded when he heard this, bowed slightly to Lord Eddard, gestured to Benjen Stark and Robb Stark, then turned and left.

Although Duke Eddard did not respond on the spot, referring to the situation in the TV series, Chen Hui felt that the possibility of his agreement was more than 70%. After all, Duke Eddard was now very aware of the risks of this trip and would not refuse to increase his own strength. The only thing that needed to be considered was Jon Snow's true identity. Would Duke Eddard refuse his request to go to King's Landing because he was too concerned about this?

In short, be prepared for both situations. If all else fails, go on your own. After all, you have your own legs, and it's no one else's business to tell you where you want to go.

Even if it's Duke Ed, give him face and call him "Sir". If not, just let him stay in bed for a long time. This will save him from running around at his age. What's the point of being so nosy?

After finding some food to fill his stomach and secretly complaining about the rough food in this world, Chen Hui went straight back to his room and continued to practice the "Postnatal Internal Alchemy" without distraction. After all, the world is so big, and nothing is more important than seizing the time to improve one's strength. The greatest fortune in this world must be in the hands of the "Night King" who has lived for nearly ten thousand years. He must find a way to kill "him" to make this trip worthwhile.

Another night passed quickly, and just at dawn the next day, Chen Hui's door was suddenly pounded with a "bang bang" sound, which woke him up from his trance.

He opened the door with a slight displeasure, and watched a petite figure rush into the room like a whirlwind, jumping and dancing happily, saying, "Jon, I have good news for you. Father has allowed me to learn swordsmanship with you!"

Chen Hui curled his lips upon hearing this, and in a very mean manner, stretched out his hands to rub Arya Stark's head, messing up her hair into a mess. Then he responded in a very unhappy tone: "Such a small matter makes you disturb my sleep so early in the morning? I already knew it yesterday."

"Hate it! I just tied my hair up." Arya Stark angrily straightened her messy hair, then hugged Chen Hui and said with a smile, "Father also said that you will go to King's Landing with us. That's great! This way I won't be lonely anymore."

"Don't you still have Sansa with you?" Chen Hui poured a glass of water and handed it over.

"Don't mention that nympho." Arya Stark took the cup and drank it all, then replied with a look of disgust: "All he does is stick to that Jolliver all day long. He's almost going crazy thinking about becoming queen."

"That blond idiot always looks down on everyone with his arrogance. He's even more annoying than his annoying mother. Speaking of which, that woman seemed to have a sudden fever last night. The doctor said it was just a cold or something. She really deserved it."

"Don't talk nonsense, she is the queen, not some woman." Chen Hui frowned and scolded him lightly, thinking that after being hit by his feminine finger power, Cersei Lannister would at least have a high fever for the whole day, and would be weak for a while. She probably wouldn't have the energy to discuss the meaning of life with her own brother.

"Jon, when are you going to teach me swordsmanship?" It has always been Arya Stark's dream to become a brave warrior, but she has never been able to do so due to her mother's opposition. Now that she finally has the opportunity to formally learn martial arts, Arya Stark can't wait even a moment and wants to start immediately.

Chen Hui pondered for a moment, then looked up at the rising sun. He then pulled Arya Stark and walked out of the room, replying as he walked, "Let's teach you now. Let's find a suitable place."

Chapter 7: Transmitting Kung Fu and Teaching Methods

Chen Hui inherited Jon Snow's memory and was familiar with the surrounding environment of Winterfell. He quickly found a secluded place outside the city where few people went.

Although she was a little curious about why she couldn't teach in the city, out of trust in her brother, Arya Stark didn't say much along the way and was brought here obediently by Chen Hui.

After repeatedly confirming that there was no one around, Chen Hui suppressed his smile and stared at Arya Stark's eager face. He said, "Before I officially teach you, Arya, I need to make an agreement with you. Everything I teach you from now on, you must not mention it to anyone, including the Duke and his wife. Can you do this?"

Seeing Alia's puzzled face, Chen Hui didn't explain anything. He simply bent down, picked up a pine cone from the ground, and with a flick of his finger, the cone shot out like an arrow. With a bang, it struck a large tree a hundred meters away. The immense force shook the trunk violently, shaking off many branches and leaves.

"Didn't you want to know yesterday how I caught a pine cone without looking? That's what I'm going to teach you."

She walked forward in disbelief, staring blankly at the pine cone that was now deeply embedded in the tree trunk. After a moment of silence, Arya Stark suddenly jumped up, ran back, and hugged Chen Hui. She hung on him like a koala, swinging back and forth, and said, "I promise! I promise everything! Teach me! Teach me!"

With a look of disgust on his face, he pulled the little girl off him and pushed her head as far away as possible. After a long while, he looked at Arya Stark, who had calmed down a little, and said in a deep voice, "Don't think this request is unreasonable. In fact, what I want to teach you has a special origin. It is said to come from the birthplace of dragons hundreds of years ago, which has been destroyed by wildfire. Do you know where that place is?"

"Could it be Vale..."

Chen Hui covered Arya Stark's mouth, stopping her from screaming. He placed a finger against his lips, silencing her. "Now you know why I insist on keeping this a secret. This is a serious matter. If it gets out, not only us, but the entire North will be in trouble. You must keep this in mind."

Seeing Arya Stark nodding with a flushed face, Chen Hui suddenly felt funny in his heart. His martial arts must have a history, and the destroyed Valyria was the best choice. However, there were suspected gods in this world, and speaking carelessly might lead to unpredictable things. So he could only speak vaguely, as long as he knew it in his heart. There was no need to say it directly.

As for the two "Three-Eyed Crows" who were probably spying on him right now, Chen Hui could only say that he had to get used to it, as there were some things he just had to accept.
