“But Junior Sister doesn’t seem to like Senior Brother.” Ye Xiu shrugged.
"You're talking nonsense. In the entire Huashan, apart from Master and Master's Wife, Junior Sister likes Senior Brother the most."
"Since Junior Sister likes Senior Brother the most, why did you come to me? Senior Brother likes Junior Sister, and you said Junior Sister likes Senior Brother. Then what difference does it make whether I am there or not?" Ye Xiu spread his hands and said innocently.
"You guy - if you hadn't been causing trouble, how could the relationship between the senior brother and the junior sister have encountered twists and turns? Ye Xiu, in the future on Huashan, be honest and don't always think about getting close to the junior sister. The junior sister is not someone you can wishfully dream about." Lu Dayou warned Ye Xiu very sternly.
Ye Xiu looked at Lu Dayou speechlessly: "Big Brother didn't say anything, but you jumped out."
"Senior Brother just doesn't want to embarrass you, but I, Lu Dayou, am different. I, Lu Dayou, will not allow you to interfere in the relationship between Senior Brother and Junior Sister. You should stay away from Junior Sister in the future, otherwise I will make you pay." Lu Dayou said bluntly.
Ye Xiu rolled his eyes.
To be honest, Ye Xiu has a certain liking for Yue Lingshan.
After all, Yue Lingshan was a very pretty and lovely girl, with a naive personality. Although she was a little spoiled, she was not arrogant. She was also kind-hearted.
With such a pretty girl always around, any normal man would inevitably develop a liking for her.
Of course, Ye Xiu had a crush on Yue Lingshan before, but it was just a crush, not a particularly deep one, and he never thought that he had to marry Yue Lingshan.
But ever since Yue Lingshan came back from Fujian, she has been pestering him, chatting and joking with Ye Xiu from time to time, or acting coquettishly towards him for no reason.
As a result, Ye Xiu's favorability towards Yue Lingshan was also increasing rapidly. After all, how could a man refuse such a cute and soft girl to act coquettishly towards him?
Moreover, Yue Lingshan's attitude towards other people has not changed much except for herself. Even towards Lin Pingzhi, Yue Lingshan's attitude towards him is lukewarm. She does not like Lin Pingzhi as in the original book.
Therefore, Ye Xiu obviously would not push away Yue Lingshan, whose attitude towards him became better as she got older.
Even though Ye Xiu met Yi Lin and Dongfang Bubai, who were as beautiful as Yue Lingshan, when he came to Hengyang City this time, he did not have much communication with them. Emotionally, he was not as close to them as Yue Lingshan.
"What do you mean by rolling your eyes?" Lu Dayou became even more angry at Ye Xiu's attitude.
In fact, Lu Dayou felt more envy and jealousy towards Ye Xiu.
As mentioned before, Yue Lingshan is very cute, very pretty and has a very innocent personality. Although she is a little bit spoiled, it is just right, which makes her more charming.
Normal men would like this kind of girl. Lu Dayou was naturally also within the normal range of men.
It's not just Lu Dayou. Most of the male disciples of Huashan Sect have a vague liking for Yue Lingshan.
It was only because of Linghu Chong that Lu Dayou and his fellow disciples had to suppress their affection and maintain their relationship at the level of senior and junior brothers and sisters.
But Ye Xiu, a guy who in their opinion is just handsome but has the worst martial arts skills among them, and who doesn't like to play with them and is a loner, has won the love of junior sister Yue Lingshan. It would be abnormal if Lu Dayou and the others were not envious and jealous.
Originally jealous of Ye Xiu, Lu Dayou became furious when he saw Ye Xiu still had this attitude. At the same time as he was angry, he also felt a little secretly happy because now he had a legitimate reason to attack Ye Xiu and teach Ye Xiu, the person who made him jealous, a good lesson.
"Ye Xiu, I'll ask you one last time, can you stay away from Junior Sister?" Lu Dayou asked again in a pretentious manner.
“Senior Brother Lu, if you can stop Junior Sister from looking for me, I won’t look for her. Otherwise, just stop talking nonsense.” Ye Xiu curled his lips and said nonchalantly.
bass--
Lu Dayou drew his sword and pointed it at Ye Xiu: "Ye Xiu, go ahead. Let me, your senior brother, teach you a lesson today. I will teach you when to respect your teachers."
Chapter 52: Pine Trees Welcoming Guests
Ye Xiu saw through Lu Dayou's little thoughts clearly, so when Ye Xiu looked at Lu Dayou, it was as if he was looking at a clown. He felt that he was simply too funny.
Ye Xiu's barely concealed look hurt Lu Dayou's heart even more.
But what can I say about Lu Dayou? Despite all his shortcomings, his character is actually quite good.
So even though Ye Xiu's eyes made Lu Dayou even more angry, he still just pointed his sword at Ye Xiu and did not take action first.
Seeing Lu Dayou like this, Ye Xiu shook his head and then drew his sword.
Ye Xiu didn't hold back on fighting Lu Dayou. Because if he didn't fight Lu Dayou once and let Lu Dayou know how powerful he was, he might still keep pestering him.
It would be better to just show off his strength and let Lu Dayou understand how great Ye Xiu is. This way he could avoid more trouble.
And Ye Xiu had no intention of pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger.
Playing the pig to eat the tiger, that is, pretending to be a pig, being bullied and laughed at by others. After being bullied, he resisted and defeated the opponent. What's the matter, is this person born to be a M or something? Must he be bullied to feel good? This is completely sick.
Although Ye Xiu would not deliberately show off his strength or be too high-profile, he would not deliberately hide himself and turn himself into a pig.
Showing off one's strength appropriately and making one's life better and easier, this is what Ye Xiu likes.
Seeing Ye Xiu holding the sword, Lu Dayou's posture of pointing at Ye Xiu changed and directly turned into the starting posture of the Cang Song Welcoming Guests in the Huashan swordsmanship.
Ancient pines welcoming guests, this is a move in the basic sword technique of Huashan. Generally, when exchanging martial arts or fighting without any malicious intent, most of the Huashan disciples use this move as the starting point to show respect to the opponent and to express their own humility.
In fact, it is a bit similar to bowing to the opponent before a Taekwondo match. It is a kind of etiquette and politeness.
After seeing Lu Dayou making the opening move of the Welcoming Pine Tree, Ye Xiu also made the same move.
It’s just that even though both of them assumed the starting posture of welcoming guests with a pine tree, the feelings they gave people were completely different.
Lu Dayou's "Pine Tree Welcoming Guests" opening move just gave people the feeling of an ordinary sword move. But Ye Xiu's "Pine Tree Welcoming Guests" seemed like he had turned into a pine tree, and the long sword in his hand seemed to have turned into a branch of the pine tree, welcoming visitors. At the same time, although it was welcoming visitors, it did not give people a casual feeling like those in a brothel, but rather had edges and corners, making people feel that if you are a guest with good intentions, I am welcoming you, and if you are a person with bad intentions, then I will draw my sword.
However, it was during this period of time that Ye Xiu kept writing in his diary every day. Not only did his internal strength increase, but even the level of Huashan Sect's swordsmanship was rapidly improving. In particular, the basic swordsmanship of Huashan Sect had almost reached perfection.
It can be said that in terms of the Huashan School's basic swordsmanship alone, even Yue Buqun is not as good as Ye Xiu.
The basic swordsmanship of the Huashan School has already shown signs of transformation in Ye Xiu's hands. If Ye Xiu is given a little more time, his Huashan swordsmanship will reach a higher level.
Lu Dayou was a man of third-rate internal strength and third-rate swordsmanship. His own strength could be said to be almost mediocre. So he could not see anything new in Ye Xiu's swordsmanship, which was perfect and almost at the level of returning to nature. He just felt that Ye Xiu's "Pine Welcoming Guests" was similar to his own.
"Ye Xiu, take action!"
When Lu Dayou saw Ye Xiu take the opening pose of the Cangsong Welcoming Guests but didn't attack first, he couldn't help but frown and yelled at Ye Xiu. After all, he felt that as a senior brother, he should be the one to attack last.
Hearing Lu Dayou asking him to attack first, Ye Xiu couldn't help but shake his head, but he didn't refuse. After all, for him, there was actually no difference between attacking first and attacking later.
So Ye Xiu drew his sword and used the move of Welcoming Guests with Pine Trees. The next moment, the sword was already in front of Lu Dayou.
Lu Dayou saw Ye Xiu’s Welcoming Guests with Cang Song, and then used the same Welcoming Guests with Cang Song.
But the next moment, Lu Dayou was confused, because Ye Xiu's sword had stopped at his throat at some point. The cold sword edge emitted a biting chill, causing goose bumps to rise in his throat.
However, Lu Dayou's sword seemed to be a million miles away from Ye Xiu.
It only took one move for Lu Dayou to be defeated, especially since Ye Xiu used the "Pine Tree Welcoming Guests" move, which represents humility and politeness.
Moreover, Lu Dayou didn't even know how Ye Xiu put the sword at his throat. As a result, Lu Dayou's eyes were full of confusion, and in the confusion, there was also a hint of fear.
"You--" Lu Dayou couldn't help but wanted to say something, but his voice became a little hoarse.
Ye Xiu retracted the sword, and the sword went back into the sheath with a clear sound.
"Senior Brother Lu, you should put more effort into practicing martial arts. Don't always think about playing, and don't think about those random things. My mistress has told you before that your talent is not as good as that of our senior brother. He only practices sword once, because he has learned it after practicing it once. You haven't learned the sword skills, but you still try to play as recklessly as our senior brother. I'm afraid you will never achieve anything in your life." Ye Xiu said casually.
He said this with the intention of persuading Lu Dayou, after all, Lu Dayou was also a disciple of Huashan Sect. However, Ye Xiu himself understood that his words would probably not have any effect.
Master's wife Ning Zhongze once said that at that time, Lu Dayou and the others practiced diligently for only three to five days, and then they returned to normal.
So if Ye Xiu were to say these things now, it would probably be useless.
He said this to fulfill his duty as a disciple of Huashan Sect, and that was enough.
Lu Dayou's face was a little pale, and he looked at Ye Xiu's figure turning and leaving in confusion. He still didn't understand why Ye Xiu had become so powerful all of a sudden. He felt that at this moment, Ye Xiu, even his senior brother Linghu Chong, was no more powerful than him.
"No, that's not right. No matter how good Ye Xiu is, he can never compare to Senior Brother." After Lu Dayou came back to his senses, he quickly shook his head, denying the thought that had just occurred to him.
But even if he denied this idea, his mind was still in a mess.
After all, Ye Xiu’s martial arts skills were not that good before, so how come he suddenly became so powerful?
"No, Ye Xiu always practices alone, so I have no idea how strong he was before—" Lu Dayou showed a bitter look on his face.
Chapter 53: Face Project
After Ye Xiu and Lu Dayou left, Yue Buqun appeared at the place where the two had just fought.
Yue Buqun's expression showed a bit of surprise: "Xiu'er's martial arts has become so powerful? I'm afraid his current strength is not inferior to Chong'er."
Yue Buqun had already discovered that Ye Xiu and Lu Dayou had made an appointment to fight. As their master, he wanted to prevent any accidents, so he followed them. Then he saw the fight between Ye Xiu and Lu Dayou.
In fact, at the beginning, when Lu Dayou asked Ye Xiu to stay away from Yue Lingshan, Yue Buqun also frowned slightly.
In fact, in Yue Buqun's opinion, his daughter is the most suitable for Linghu Chong.
After all, Linghu Chong was Yue Buqun's eldest disciple, and all of Linghu Chong's martial arts were taught by Yue Buqun himself. Although Yue Buqun also taught martial arts to other disciples, the amount of energy he put into teaching them was much less than that put into Linghu Chong.
So it can be said that among the many disciples in the entire Huashan Sect, the one Yue Buqun is closest to and likes the most is actually Linghu Chong.
Even in Yue Buqun's plan, when he gets old, the position of the leader of the Huashan Sect will be passed on to Linghu Chong, and he will also betroth Yue Lingshan to Linghu Chong.
However, the situation now seems to have happened unexpectedly. The relationship between Yue Lingshan and Ye Xiu seems to be a little different, so much so that Lu Dayou and others feel that the relationship between Yue Lingshan and Ye Xiu may pose a threat to Linghu Chong.
Originally, Yue Buqun was thinking about whether he should intervene to make sure Yue Lingshan would not be with Ye Xiu just because of that pretty boy.
After all, what matters in the world is strength.
But now, Yue Buqun discovered that Ye Xiu’s strength seemed to be no worse than Linghu Chong’s. Now, Yue Buqun’s previous thoughts were temporarily put to an end.
Moreover, Ye Xiu is seven years younger than Linghu Chong, but their strengths are almost the same. From this point of view, Ye Xiu's potential may be even greater.
In fact, Yue Buqun had a darker idea in his mind, which was to bring Yue Lingshan and Lin Pingzhi together. If his daughter and Lin Pingzhi were together, then they would be a family, and the Manual of the Sword of Exorcism would then belong to them at Huashan.
However, Yue Buqun hesitated when he remembered that Ning Zhongze had once told him that the Book of the Sword of Exorcism was an evil martial art that required castration of one's self to practice.
……
In fact, Ye Xiu had noticed Yue Buqun's spying from the very beginning.
Although Ye Xiu could not compare to Yue Buqun in terms of internal strength, his swordsmanship was several levels higher than Yue Buqun's. After his swordsmanship reached a certain level, Ye Xiu's five senses became more acute.
In addition, Yue Buqun underestimated Ye Xiu and did not deliberately hide his figure, so it was normal for him to be noticed by Ye Xiu.
However, Ye Xiu noticed Yue Buqun's surveillance, but still did not try to hide his edge.
Because Ye Xiu was not worried that his trump card would be discovered, and because he had a cheat, his strength was improving every day. Even his internal strength was one month deeper than the day before, not to mention his sword skills, boxing, palm skills, and knife skills.
In fact, Ye Xiu's internal strength at this point was no worse than Linghu Chong's, even though Ye Xiu was seven years younger than Linghu Chong.
Ye Xiu became a disciple and entered Huashan three years ago. In the second year, he began to practice internal skills. Due to his poor aptitude, after three years in Huashan, his internal strength was still very weak.
But since his cheats arrived, his talent has been improved, and his internal strength has increased by one month every day. So far, Ye Xiu has been writing a diary for more than 40 days, which means that he has increased his internal strength by one month every day, and Ye Xiu has cultivated his internal strength for more than four years, plus the one year of cultivation from the monthly bonus. In total, Ye Xiu has cultivated for about six years.
Different people, when practicing the same martial arts, have different speeds of practice.
When Ye Xiu got the diary, he had cleansed his marrow and cleared his meridians, and his aptitude increased significantly, almost as good as Linghu Chong. Therefore, the internal strength training in the past six years has almost pushed Ye Xiu's cultivation to the extreme of the acquired realm, that is, the ninth level of the acquired realm.
In fact, Linghu Chong's internal strength at this time was only at the ninth level of the acquired realm. Because of Linghu Chong's personality, he simply couldn't concentrate on practicing internal strength, so he had a talent for internal strength cultivation that was no less than Ye Xiu's at this time. After practicing in Huashan Sect for more than ten years, his internal strength cultivation was only about the same as Ye Xiu's at this time.
As for Ye Xiu, he has been practicing diligently and has never been lazy, so in two or three days at most, Ye Xiu's internal strength will be able to surpass Linghu Chong, and directly break into the innate realm and become a innate warrior.
In addition, Ye Xiu practiced the Hunyuan Gong, which cultivates both internal and external aspects. Once he breaks into the innate realm and becomes an innate warrior, his combat power, with the blessing of the Hunyuan Gong alone, is likely to be no less than that of an ordinary innate third-level warrior.
If one adds to the sword skills that Ye Xiu has cultivated through hard work, Ye Xiu's combat power is probably no less than that of a warrior in the middle stage of the innate realm, that is, a warrior at the fourth to sixth level of the innate realm.
All of this was obtained by Ye Xiu's hard work, yes, hard work in writing a diary. After all, the diary, which was no less than a thousand words every day, was written by Ye Xiu himself.
Yue Buqun drew out the long sword in his hand, assumed the starting posture of the Cang Song Welcoming Guests, and then used the Cang Song Welcoming Guests move -
"It feels like something is not right." Yue Buqun compared his moves with the one Ye Xiu had just used, and always felt that his moves seemed to be a little different from the one Ye Xiu used.
They were clearly the same move, and Yue Buqun's move was even more standard, but it didn't feel as good as the one Ye Xiu used.
“Could it be that Ye Xiu has embarked on the path of the Sword Sect?” Yue Buqun frowned.
In fact, Yue Buqun doesn’t care that much about the Qi Sect and the Sword Sect.
In other words, after Yue Buqun started to covet the Manual of the Sword of Exorcism, he was no longer as concerned about the sword energy dispute within the Huashan Sect as before.
But after all, he is the successor of Huashan Sect's Qi Sect and the leader of the Qi Sect. In front of outsiders, even in front of his wife Ning Zhongze, he needs to maintain the dignity of the Qi Sect.
So, like at this moment, if Ye Xiu was not in front of him, or at least not obviously showing off his style to be similar to that of the Sword Sect in front of him, Yue Buqun would not pursue it.
Of course, if Ye Xiu was competing with his fellow disciples or practicing sword skills under the supervision of Yue Buqun, and his style began to lean towards the Sword Sect, Yue Buqun would still reprimand Ye Xiu, saying that Ye Xiu had embarked on an evil path, and then would tell Ye Xiu that the Qi Sect was the right way, and then would give Ye Xiu a certain punishment.
This kind of face-saving project is necessary.
