"Oh? Flying swords? So swords can be used in this way?" Miyamoto Musashi looked at the six swords floating beside Yan Qing with interest.

Hundreds of years ago, he created the Ertian Yiliu (Two Heavens, One Short) fighting style, pioneering a fighting method involving two swords, one long and one short, which caused a sensation among the warriors of the time. In his opinion, two swords were the limit of the human body, so how could he wield six flying swords?

"Miyamoto Musashi, look carefully at the hilts of these flying swords." Guo Haihuang on the side suddenly reminded.

Looking in the direction indicated by the Sea Emperor, Miyamoto Musashi discovered that there seemed to be some kind of mechanism hidden in the hilt of the flying sword that he could not understand. It was through this that the young man could control the flying sword smoothly.

The six flying swords seemed like six completely different peerless swordsmen, each using different moves, but they complemented each other and could be released and retracted freely. In just a split second, they killed the three demonic bodies on the spot.

King Lie Haiwang standing by was so shocked that he was shaking all over. His lips trembled for a long time, but he couldn't say a word.

"Are these six swords all controlled by Yanqing alone?" Although Huashan Xun could not understand the specific sword techniques, as a fighting expert, he could read the murderous aura contained in the swords.

This murderous aura obviously came from one person.

"...This is impossible." Lie Haiwang wiped the sweat from his forehead, his pupils widening. "In a split second of distraction, he simultaneously controlled six flying swords to kill the enemy, and used six completely different sword techniques... How is this possible? At this age?"

It was not until he saw Yan Qing's flying sword put back into the scabbard that Miyamoto Musashi reluctantly turned his gaze away from the light curtain.

"Wonderful, wonderful."

Putting on a more respectful attitude, Miyamoto Musashi clapped softly.

Chapter 135: The disciple meets the master and receives one-on-one tutoring from a famous teacher!

"Wonderful, wonderful."

At the Emiya household, Sasaki Kojiro slowly clapped his hands in front of the quilt, his eyes full of admiration.

Six flying swords... An ordinary person may not be able to practice a sword to such a level in his entire life, but this little brother Yan Qing can control six at the same time. It is no exaggeration to say that he is "astonishingly talented".

"Assassin, can't you deal with his flying sword?" Emiya Shirou asked doubtfully. He had the impression that the only ones who knew the most about swords were him and Saber.

"If it's just one or two of them, I might still have a chance of winning..." Sasaki Kojiro shook his head slightly, "If it's six, I'm afraid I'll have to act together with Saber to have a chance of survival."

"Is this true... This is too exaggerated." Shirou looked at Saber in disbelief, but when he turned around, he found that cold sweat had already slid down to the chin on the girl's pretty face.

It wasn't Yan Qing's swordsmanship that made him sweat profusely, but the white-haired woman in front of him with her eyes covered by a black veil...

It’s Mirror Flow!!

-

"Thank you for your help, little brother." Jingliu tilted his head slightly. Although he was thanking her, his cold tone didn't convey much gratitude.

"Oh, that's my job. The port of Luofu is blocked, why are you still here alone?"

"I came here on a merchant ship. The shadows of several old friends from the past have been spinning in my mind. I wanted to meet up with them and reminisce about the old times... Who would have thought that Luofu is now so dangerous?"

"You came at an unfortunate time. Something unexpected happened on the Immortal Boat. But the General will take care of it. Let's go. You can't stay here. We have to go to the nearest Cloud Cavalry Station." Yan Qing suddenly remembered something, "Oh, by the way, have you seen a man in black clothes with long hair——"

"Before he could finish his words, Jingliu had already turned around, and Yanqing's words were cut short - he saw the black veil covering the woman's eyes."

"You...can't you see? Sorry, I thought..." Yan Qing was a little embarrassed for a moment, and quickly introduced himself: "My name is Yan Qing, and I'm an officially registered Cloud Cavalry. I haven't asked for your name yet, big sister?"

"My name is Kagami Ryu."

"Um... Sister Jingliu, let me lead you for a bit. It might take a bit of a detour, but I promise to get you to Yunqi safely."

"Along the way, Yanqing asked Jingliu a lot of questions, such as where she was from and how long it had been since she had been to the Immortal Boat. However, Miss Jingliu remained cold and indifferent. Apart from knowing that she was from Cangcheng, he was unable to get any other information out of her."

In a cheap capsule hotel on the outskirts of Shinjuku District, Japan, Caesar, Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang had a rare chance to meet.

"You need to have some skills to chat with women, especially when you want to trick a woman into talking, you need to pay special attention to details." Looking at Yan Qing's silly and almost unpretentious words, Caesar shook his head.

"Asking beautiful women where they're from or where they're going—ah... I stopped asking these kinds of questions when I was eight," Caesar said. "Questions that are too purposeful are easy to be wary of. Questions need to be subtly integrated into the conversation."

"Hey, hey, hey! Boss, please don't bring up your elementary school love history at this point, okay? Just look at the beauty and focus on appreciating her!"

"The principal told us to study her swordsmanship well. Maybe they'll add a 'Mirror Flow Swordsmanship' course at the end of next semester. If we don't pass it, we won't get any credits." Chu Zihang said, "But now is definitely a good time to learn."

"Good time? Sorry, I can't calm down at this time." Caesar's eyes were a little straight.

As he was speaking, the camera just happened to cut to Jingliu's lower body. Under the light-colored petal-shaped pleated skirt, two thighs as white as cream were so dazzling that it made people's eyes dizzy.

"Boss, staring at a girl's thighs is ungentlemanly! If you keep staring, the Gattuso family's reputation will be in jeopardy!"

"Gattuso's reputation has nothing to do with this matter. According to our family tradition, I should continue watching. If it were my stud father, he would probably hold a rose in his mouth and invite Jingliu for late-night swordsmanship instruction."

Caesar raised his eyebrows. "Besides, don't you think? This is the part that needs to be savored the most."

"Yanqing and Jingliu rushed to the ferry together, but the only way was blocked by a demonic spirit."

"He told Jingliu to stay where he was while he went to deal with the monsters. The demonic bodies were not difficult to deal with, but their clear minds made Yanqing look startled."

"Who are these guys? Alas, the general was right about the internal troubles on the Immortal Boat." Yan Qing sighed worriedly.

"At this moment, Jingliu suddenly said, "Little brother, your swordsmanship is quite good."

“Eh? You… can see?” Yan Qing was shocked.

"I can hear it. The ringing of a flying sword, the sound of a sharp blade cutting through the air... these traces will invisibly reveal the quality of the swordsmanship."

"Like a musician listening to a zither, a poet listening to a melody. A skilled swordsman leaves no trace of stagnant or cluttered movements amidst the shifting flow of sword moves. There are only a handful of Cloud Riders capable of simultaneously controlling six flying swords in a single breath."

Yan Qing felt a little embarrassed by the compliment for a moment. He scratched his head and said, "Uh, haha, thank you very much."

"You were so focused on attacking without concealing your strength..." Jingliu paused, "That's why the ending of your sword song seems a bit messy."

"...It seems there are indeed similarities between zither music and swordsmanship. The general made similar comments, saying that my sword is too arrogant and angular, and that I still lack maturity to claim the title of "Sword Master"..."

"Sword Master? I remember that being the title bestowed upon the person who reached the pinnacle of swordsmanship within the Cloud Cavalry. It's so far away..." Jing Liu's gaze shifted from the distant sea of ​​clouds back to the sword in Yan Qing's hand. "Speaking of which, the Cloud Cavalry each has its own tradition of martial arts. Little brother, who taught you swordsmanship?"

"When mentioning his master, Yan Qing raised his head with a hint of pride and said with a faint smile, "Since you are a swordsman, I won't keep you in suspense. It is none other than General Jingyuan of Luofu."

"This is like a disciple meeting his master... Tsk tsk, if I were Jing Yuan, I'd feel stressed just thinking about it."

Just imagining that scene made Hu Tao break out in a cold sweat. "If the master is not satisfied with the disciple I trained, will he come and punish me personally?"

"How could that be? Hall Master, you're overthinking it." Zhongli chuckled, "There's a talented junior in our sect. I'm afraid Jingliu won't be able to protect him enough."

Chapter 136 The Demon Slayer Corps must engrave Mirror-Ryu’s sword skills in their minds!

"'General...' Jingliu's tone seemed a little surprised."

"Even if you haven't been to Luofu for a long time, you've probably heard of General Jingyuan's reputation. Although the general always claims he's not good with a sword and his skills are rusty... every time he teaches me, he's always very enthusiastic." Yan Qing looked around. "Okay, the area is safe now. Let's continue."

"The Xingcha Ferry was very close to them. They didn't walk far before arriving at a Xingcha. After retrieving the navigation records, Yanqing planned to send Jingliu to a safe place."

"Isn't the Cloud Riders' base safe these days?" Jingliu said coldly, folding his arms.

"Yes," Yan Qing continued, "so instead of going to the Cloud Cavalry base, we'll send you directly to the Prison of Desolation. You'll be provided with food and lodging, and heavily guarded, so it's absolutely safe."

Jingliu remained calm and composed: "...Little brother, if you want to arrest someone, there should be an explanation."

"You act suspiciously, hiding your true self. That alone is enough. You don't think I'm a child, so I can be easily fooled, do you?" Yan Qing said with a wary look. "Let's not even talk about how a stranded passenger suddenly appeared in the blockaded port. As you walked along, I noticed you walked with a light and steady pace. You don't look blind at all."

"As for swordsmanship, you might have been able to understand it well enough, but you even managed to accurately count the number of swords I've flown. Such knowledge is beyond the reach of ordinary people."

Teyvat, Sumeru.

"Hey, hey, hey! This is not good! Looking at Yanqing's posture, is he planning to draw his sword against Master?"

Seeing Yan Qing's fierce expression, Kawei was afraid that his master's demonic body would attack accidentally and kill this disciple on the spot...

The scene is not difficult to imagine. After all, when Jingliu Demon was in the Yin body, he was ruthless when he chopped his apprentice!

"Logically speaking, Yan Qing is one of the best swordsmen on the Immortal Boat. Could it be that he can't sense the strength of this white-haired woman?"

Seno put down the Seven Saints Summoning Card in his hand with confusion and began to analyze the situation in the light curtain: "Could it be that he did this on purpose? To force Jingliu to take action?"

"...Seno, you're overthinking it." Tinari chuckled. "Perhaps it's simply the Cloud Cavalry's sense of responsibility. He may have realized that this woman is very dangerous, but given the current situation on the Immortal Boat... such a dangerous person can't be left alone."

"But then again, even if Jingliu is willing to use her sword, given the difference in strength between her and Yanqing... I'm afraid it would just be a game."

As Cole's teacher and also a senior among the forest rangers in Huacheng, Tinari can now understand the uncontrollable joy in his heart when he sees outstanding juniors.

Even though Miss Jingliu is indifferent by nature, when she sees a disciple like Yanqing, she will at least feel a little bit of appreciation for his talent, right?

-

"You're not blind at all, are you?" Yan Qing asked, his eyebrows raised.

"Heh." Jing Liu sneered, "I never said I couldn't see. You just assumed it when you saw me with my black veil covering my eyes."

"Uh..." Yan Qing was still asking fiercely just now, but after Jing Liu refuted him, his tone softened immediately."

Sensing the awkwardness, Jing Liu took the initiative and said, "Don't worry, little brother. I have no grudge against you, and I never intended to harm Xianzhou. This black veil is proof that I don't want to be reminded of the past, fall into the evil shadow, and commit another crime."

"I came here just to capture someone, so it's a good idea for me to go with you."

Yan Qing frowned slightly: "You are here for the blade too?"

"'Blade?' Is that his current name? He abandoned his body to the sharp edge, and sharpened his sword to the heart. He's quite good at choosing names."

Jingliu walked past Yanqing and said softly, "Take me to see him, little brother. You are no match for me, and so, you are no match for Ren. With me accompanying you, your life will not be in vain, little brother."

"This sentence seemed to hit Yan Qing right in the heart, making him feel very dissatisfied. He didn't turn back to look at Jing Liu, but snorted coldly: "How can we know the outcome before the sword light is released? I advise you not to underestimate my sword."

"I don't want to fight against the Cloud Cavalry. How about this—" Jing Liu turned and suggested, "Let's have a duel. Let's test our swords on the evil creatures on the Luofu Immortal Boat. Let's see whose sword is faster and who can cut more. How about that?"

"If you win, I will accept the bet and surrender, be tied up, and be taken to the prison for trial and be dealt with as you wish." Jingliu changed the subject, "But if I win, you will share Blade's whereabouts with me. How do you do that?"

Yan Qing shook his head confidently, "Yunqi doesn't trade official duties. Besides, you can't win."

The buried Fulilian——

"Heh, I like his confidence... What an interesting little guy."

Celie nodded appreciatively. As a teacher, she liked this kind of talented yet rebellious young people. Only such people could break the old rules, create history, and bring surprises.

Young and full of energy, he doesn't know how to hide his strengths... The shortcomings that Jingliu saw were not a problem at all in Celie's opinion.

Can you still be called a young man if you are not passionate?

She had seen countless gifted magicians learning from her. They followed the routine when they were young, were entangled in various affairs in their middle age, and their spirits were tempered by the years in their old age. It was too late to regret, and looking back, they saw only an obscure life.

On the contrary, those who liked to contradict her since childhood achieved remarkable achievements in their short lives, just like fleeting meteors, which were shining even if short-lived.

Looking at Yanqing's confident expression, Celie's smile deepened.

With this little guy's talent and temperament, his future is truly limitless...

On the other side of the demon world——

"Hurry up!"

"Hold the wooden sword! Act quickly!"

In the middle of the night, the loud voice of Shigeya Busei echoed in the mountains and forests.

In the blink of an eye, most of the Demon Slayer Corps were mobilized. Most of them were bleary-eyed, yawning, and bewildered. Inside the Butterfly House, even wounded soldiers like Tanjirō and Zenitsu were forcibly awakened and rushed to the courtyard where the meeting was taking place in front of the pillars.

"Mr. Giyu, this is..." Tanjiro pointed to the large group of Demon Slayer Corps members in front of him.

He, Zenitsu and Inosuke were all sleeping and had no idea what was happening. When they were suddenly awakened from their sleep, they thought that an Upper Moon had come to the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters.

"It's more important than this." Tomioka Giyu gripped the long sword at his waist and warned, "Yanqing and Jingliu will demonstrate their sword skills later. We must engrave every move of their swordsmanship in our minds."

"Eh? Kagami-ryu?" Hearing this name, Tanjiro's sleepiness was immediately swept away. "Didn't she die? Died at the hands of General Kagemoto..."

"I don't know exactly what happened, but she has appeared in the Immortal Boat and is planning to pursue Blade."

"But her sword skills are too fast. I'm afraid..."

Thinking back to her fight with the general—honestly, even now, Tanjiro couldn't fathom the Lens Style's moves. He watched the entire fight and felt only one word: "fast." Even with ordinary sword techniques, the speed was many times faster than Zenitsu's Ichi-no-kata.

Chapter 137 I admit that Jingliu's swordsmanship is very powerful, but it still requires too much skill.

It was obvious that the boy was very nervous, just like the other members of the Demon Slayer Corps who were kneeling in the yard.

At this time, Sound Pillar Tengen Uzui came over. Although he had lost one hand and retreated from the front line after the battle with Upper Six, he still had to be present at this critical moment.

He was behind the scenes and put on a white kimono. His long hair, which was originally tied up, was draped over his shoulders, making him look quite handsome.

"Don't worry, Tanjiro. Except for the pillars, the rest of the Demon Slayer Corps only need to memorize Yanqing's sword moves. It doesn't matter if you can't remember the whole picture. We can just piece it together through everyone's memories later."

"But……"

"Tanjiro, don't feel too burdened. You are not the only one responsible for recording sword skills. The entire Demon Slayer Corps is also responsible. You must believe in yourself and your companions."

Uzui Tengen patted Tanjiro's shoulder and said, "Also, we will be responsible for recording Mirror Style's sword techniques, so you don't have to worry about it."
