Gradually, he became quite familiar with the girl's seemingly boundless sword techniques.

He discovered that the girl's swordsmanship was frighteningly advanced, and her reactions were as sharp as a wild beast.

but!

She was ultimately just a simple girl who loved to play.

She has a fatal flaw.

That was the kind of treacherous and cunning combat experience that humans have, and she was pitifully weak in it!

Every attack and defense she makes is driven by pure instinct.

She doesn't understand the concept of feinting to the east while attacking in the west.

They don't understand the concept of "luring the snake out of its hole."

They also don't understand the insidious and elaborate disguises that humans use in life-or-death struggles!

A sly glint flashed in Lin Xuan's eyes.

After another fierce battle between the two.

Lin Xuan suddenly exclaimed, "Ouch!"

His right hand, which was holding the bamboo stick, trembled slightly as if it could not withstand the repeated impacts.

Immediately afterwards, his steps seemed to become unsteady by half an inch.

The entire central gate was now wide open, facing the girl!

This is a flaw!

A fatal flaw!

But this was actually a deliberate act by Lin Xuan!

How could a naive young girl understand the treacherous tricks of these seasoned veterans?

Her instincts, even her natural sword intent, instantly detected this "flaw".

Without the slightest hesitation!

The bamboo stick in the girl's hand, like a shark smelling blood, transformed into a sharp green light and decisively stabbed straight at Lin Xuan's wide-open vital point!

"We've been tricked!"

In that extremely brief instant when the girl threw the bat!

Lin Xuan's eyes instantly cleared!

"Snapped!"

His wide-open central gate seemed to have been premeditated.

With a strange angle, he suddenly flicked the green bamboo branch in his hand upwards!

"boom!"

Two bamboos intertwine.

A powerful surge of true energy traveled along Lin Xuan's bamboo branch and was transmitted to the girl's bamboo stick!

hum!

The girl felt a jolt and numbness in the mouth of her hand.

Her slender wrist was instantly rendered numb by the violent force.

He could no longer hold onto that bamboo stick!

It flew out of his hand!

It traced a weak parabola in mid-air and fell far away into the grass.

The battle came to an abrupt end.

Lin Xuan held a green bamboo in his hand and stood steadily in place, his white clothes fluttering gently in the wind.

And the girl standing opposite.

Looking at his empty hands, and then at the bamboo stick that had fallen to the distance.

There was no anger in her eyes because of her defeat.

in contrast.

Her pure eyes widened in surprise.

In her life.

This was the first time she had ever seen someone so amazing!

Chapter 314: Undergoing Surgery

A mountain breeze swept by.

Lin Xuan casually tossed the green bamboo on the ground, clapped his hands, and smiled as he looked at the surprised girl opposite him.

"Miss, you're too kind."

The girl was stunned for quite a while.

Her gaze lingered on her empty little hands for a long time, as if she was still savoring the strange feeling from that moment.

Then, she looked up.

A bright light shone from those clear eyes.

"You're so amazing!"

The young girl did not have the sore anger that comes with defeat for someone from the martial arts world.

Her words were direct and pure, like praising a beautifully blooming flower.

"I've been in so many fights, and no one has ever been able to knock my bamboo stick away. You're the toughest person I've ever met!"

The girl smiled radiantly, her innocent smile seemingly capable of melting away the ice and snow of the Kunlun Mountains.

Lin Xuan was touched by her innocent and guileless demeanor.

In this world full of deceit and treachery, such a pure soul is extremely rare.

"You're amazing too."

Lin Xuan walked to the grass in front of her and sat down casually.

He looked at the girl with sincere eyes and exclaimed in admiration, "If I hadn't tricked you with that last move, it would have been very difficult to win against you. Your swordsmanship is truly divine."

Hearing this praise, the girl smiled broadly.

She also sat down on the grass.

The enormous white ape seemed to sense that the danger had passed when the two stopped fighting.

It limped over and gently rested its large, furry head on the girl's knee.

It made a low whimpering sound, as if it had been wronged.

The girl stretched out her slender fingers and gently combed the white ape's fur, soothing its emotions.

"My name is Aqing."

After a competition, the two became much closer.

Aqing, without any suspicion, introduced herself to Lin Xuan very naturally.

Upon hearing those two words, Lin Xuan understood.

Sure enough it was her!

In this world, who else but "A Qing" could possess such profound swordsmanship!

“I’ve lived here since I was a child, growing up in these mountains with my father and mother. We made a living by raising sheep and collecting herbs, and we’ve never been to those crowded places outside.”

As she said this, a hint of sadness flashed in Aqing's eyes.

"However, a few years ago, there was a huge snowfall in the mountains. My father and mother both fell very ill and couldn't make it. They left me all alone..."

Aqing's voice was soft, tinged with sadness, but in the years she spent living in harmony with nature, she seemed to have learned to accept birth, aging, sickness, and death as readily as she accepted the rising and setting of the sun and moon.

Lin Xuan listened quietly without interrupting.

"Later, I lived here alone. I usually herded sheep and played with the small animals on the mountain."

Aqing reached out her little hand and gently stroked the snow-white fur of the big white ape beside her. "This is Grandma White. She was a white ape that roamed around these mountains when I was very young."

"It's my good friend! It's very smart and it can even fight me with a bamboo stick. I actually learned all my sword skills little by little from it when Grandma Bai and I were playing and hitting each other with bamboo sticks every day."

These words were spoken in a very understated manner.

Learn the Way through play, and take nature as your teacher!

There were no internal energy cultivation methods or martial arts manuals; he simply played with a sentient white ape using a bamboo stick.

Unbeknownst to him, he had comprehended the supreme sword intent that was unparalleled in the world!

This is Aqing!

This is the true origin of the legendary "Yue Maiden Sword Technique," which exists only in stories and can break through three thousand armors!

"Your talent is truly amazing."

Lin Xuan exclaimed in admiration, then his expression turned serious.

"Aqing, since you consider this white ape your best friend, haven't you noticed that it has been in a lot of pain and seems very weak lately?"

Hearing Lin Xuan steer the conversation back to the white ape.

Aqing frowned deeply, tenderly stroking the white ape's unusually swollen belly, her eyes filled with worry.

"I've found it."

Aqing's voice was anxious. "Grandma Bai used to be so agile, she could jump around in the trees. But for the past six months or so, her belly has gotten bigger and bigger, she can't walk anymore, and she cries out in pain every night. I've found a lot of herbs from the mountains for her to eat, but it's no use at all... Big brother, do you know what's wrong with her?"

At this moment when trust had been established through the martial arts competition, Aqing's way of addressing Lin Xuan changed accordingly.

"Of course I know."

Lin Xuan explained gently, "Aqing, I come from the outside world. I came to this mountain to find it, and I have no ill intentions towards this white ape."

"Its illness cannot be cured by herbal medicine. Because many years ago, someone forcibly sewed something into its stomach!"

"what?!"

Aqing exclaimed in surprise, her face filled with disbelief.

"That thing grew bigger and bigger inside its belly, which is why its belly became bloated and it suffered every day."

Lin Xuan pointed to the deep scar on the white ape's abdomen and patiently explained, "When I said I was going to cut open its belly, it wasn't to kill it. It was to remove the foreign object inside, like a doctor treating an illness. Only by removing that thing can the white ape truly recover its health and stop feeling pain."

Hearing Lin Xuan's simple and easy-to-understand explanation...

Ah Qing's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down.

She may be naive, but she's not stupid.

She could sense that the older brother in front of her had no murderous intent, and although he could have easily defeated her and captured the white ape, he stopped to reason with her.

He must be a good person.

"Big brother, so you're here to treat Grandma Bai's illness!"

Ah Qing's eyes filled with joy, and she nodded repeatedly, "I misunderstood you. But... but cutting open her stomach, how painful would that be? And with so much blood loss, Grandma Bai would die!"

"Don't worry, I have a way to make it feel no pain and I can guarantee that it will not die."

Lin Xuan smiled confidently, then looked at A Qing and asked, "However, after we retrieve the items, we need to sew its belly back up. A Qing, do you know any needlework?"

"I can! I sew my own clothes myself. They may not look very nice, but they're very sturdy!"

"Okay, that's enough."

Lin Xuan stood up and picked up the white ape from the ground.

The white ape seemed to sense Lin Xuan's kindness, and with A Qing comforting it from the side, it became surprisingly docile, obediently letting Lin Xuan hold it.

"Come on, take me to where you live. It's inconvenient in this remote area, we'll perform the surgery at your home."
