Chapter 674 Strike the Saber Only
In the imperial capital.
In the underground base, Yue Xincheng groans inwardly in pain.
“Holy crap. Boss only asked me to come here and chat with Lord Dragon King. He didn’t tell me to practice the saber skills!”
Now, Yue Xincheng has bruises on his face and several injuries on his body. It seems that he has been beaten up to some degree.
Thinking of that Gao Ge is still running around west Huaxia, he is unwilling to stay in the capital, but when he tries to leave, he will be stopped by a strong man holding the saber.
At first, Yue Xincheng would try to fight with the man but shortly, he realized that there was a wide strength gap between him and the man.
If he insists on rushing out, he will be causing trouble for himself.
Yue Xincheng is a very wise man.
After realizing that he is no match for the man, his attitude softens.
“Lord Horn Dragon, could you please let me go back first? When I have time, I will come to practice the saber skills with you, okay?”
“Sit back.” Sitting on a cane chair, Horn Dragon, with a saber on his knees, is conserving his energy by closing his eyes. “Besides, if you dare to talk to me coquettishly again, I’ll continue beating you.”
“Oh my…”
With a bang, Horn Dragon hits Yue Xincheng and sends him flying away.
Yue Xincheng starts to curse in his heart again.
At first, he actually cursed Horn Dragon verbally but afterward, he finds that Horn Dragon is really bad-tempered.
It must be him who suffers loss in the end.
He has thought it through.
His curses can only let him have some pleasure but Horn Dragon won’t be hurt at all.
However, if he really pisses off Horn Dragon, he will probably get hurt.
“Before dusk, if you still can’t get the hang of the first move, I will teach you by actually exerting it.”
Hearing Horn Dragon’s words, Yue Xincheng can’t help shivering.
Teach him by exerting the move?
Horn Dragon will be beating him up actually.
Men are such big liars…
He is angry indeed.
Yet, Yue Xincheng knows that he is in a hopeless situation.
He raises his head to look at the light. He really wants to ask how he can know when it will be dusk since he is in the underground base… There is not even a clock in this place.
He feels so furious.
Faced with an unreasonable man, he has no other way than tolerating since he is no match for the man.
He takes a deep breath and stands up. Holding his Slaying Dragon Broadsword, he tries to recall the move Horn Dragon showed him before. Then, the sword Qi starts to surge from the broadsword in his hand.
Previously, although Yue Xincheng practiced the saber skills, Horn Dragon just rubbished him relentlessly. According to Horn Dragon, the saber is different from the sword.
If he wants to practice the saber skills, he must leave everything behind and exerts the moves to the point. Otherwise, he will leave an opportunity for his opponent.
At first, Yue Xincheng was unreconciled but after struggling with Horn Dragon, he gradually understands what Horn Dragon actually meant.
Even when Horn Dragon suppresses his own realm, Yue Xincheng is still no match for him.
He is totally convinced by Horn Dragon’s saber skills.
It has nothing to do with his being beaten.
“Let’s take a break.” Horn Dragon stares at Yue Xincheng and suddenly stands up.
Blinking his eyes, Yue Xincheng looks at Horn Dragon, with a glimmer of fear hidden in the depths of his eyes.
“Stop practicing,” Horn Dragon says.
Yue Xincheng is instantly ecstatic.
“Do I finish my apprenticeship?”
“Finish your apprenticeship?” Horn Dragon sneers. “You are so unbelievable. How can you have the courage to think of that? I really want to let you have half of my self-abasement. Don’t you have any self-knowledge?”
Yue Xincheng gives a forced smile.
Horn Dragon doesn’t talk much but as long as he speaks, he can take a dig at others to the extremity.
Therefore, in general cases, Yue Xincheng won’t piss off Horn Dragon easily.
He is quite confused actually. Now, he is no longer a member of the Dragon Court. Why does the Dragon Court still ask Horn Dragon to teach him the saber skills?
Is it because he is good-looking?
Well.
It is quite likely. After all, beauty conquers all nowadays.
Oh, he is too charming anyway…
“What are you thinking about?” Looking at Yue Xincheng immersed in reveries, Horn Dragon asks with a frown.
“Ahem. Nothing.” Yue Xincheng is still not that cheeky to voice out his true thoughts.
Otherwise, Horn Dragon will show his sharp tongue again.
Yue Xincheng will not give this man such a chance to dig at him.
“From now on, you only focus on drawing out your broadsword,” Horn Dragon says calmly.
Yue Xincheng blinks his eyes.
Obviously, he doesn’t understand what Horn Dragon means.
“Here is what I mean.” Horn Dragon holds his saber, raises his arm and slashes down.
“This is it,” he continues saying.
Yue Xincheng is dumbfounded. “That’s it?”
Horn Dragon gives a smile. “Do you think it is simple?”
Yue Xincheng responds with silence.
“Practice this first. I hope you will hold the belief all the time,” after saying that, Horn Dragon sits back, holding two arms together with his eyes closed in a catnap.
Yue Xincheng sighs.
The first time Horn Dragon did so, he tried to escape but he was thrown back by Horn Dragon. He can even think of the pain now.
After all, he was thrown face down.
Therefore, without any thought of escaping, he is only recollecting what Horn Dragon said just now. Then, he waves his broadsword and slashes it down.
After all, he doesn’t find anything special about Horn Dragon’s movements.
Now, he should be 100% copying Horn Dragon’s movements.
Well…
He is Copycat Yue now!
“Tsk. He is just too idle and wants to torture me. What’s funny about this?” Yue Xincheng keeps complaining in his heart.
Obviously, even by now, Yue Xincheng doesn’t think Horn Dragon’s arrangement is meaningful.
It is probably because he was so seriously tortured by Horn Dragon before that he still thinks that Horn Dragon is tormenting him in another way.
Horn Dragon only snorts after hearing what Yue Xincheng said.
“You are too young,” he says to Yue Xincheng in his heart.
He doesn’t dare to voice it out.
Yue Xincheng feels that he is so sharp-tongued but actually, Yue Xincheng is quite mean too.
The first time he said to Yue Xincheng, “You are too young,” Yue Xincheng replied, “No, you are even younger.”
It sounded very uncomfortable but he couldn’t find a reason to get angry. Horn Dragon thinks that it may be the highest level of picking on someone…
Gradually, as time passes, Yue Xincheng’s face becomes somewhat stern.
He gradually feels as if his broadsword became as heavy as 500 kg.
His movements are no longer standard and also get slower.
“What? It has been a little while only. And now you cannot hang on?” Horn Dragon lying on the chair has closed his eyes but he seems to see Yue Xincheng’s performance.
Gnashing his teeth, Yue Xincheng sweats a lot and tries to keep his movements as standard as before, but it is really difficult…
