Zhao Yaqing and her daoist protector flew over and stopped in mid-air in front of Qin Ran and Li Shiyin, with no intention of landing on the ground.
"Miss Shiyin..." Zhao Yaqing looked down condescendingly at Li Shiyin from mid-air, carrying some noble temperament. She smiled and her tone was very mild, but because of the relative positions of the two, she could not give people any affinity at all. She said to Li Shiyin,
"Just now I saw an anomaly from afar in this direction, Miss Shiyin's innate sword must have come out of the furnace. To tell you the truth, although I entered the world of cultivating immortals a few years earlier than Miss Shiyin, I have not yet seen an innate sword that needed to cross the celestial tribulation. Could Miss Shiyin lend me the sword to take a look?"
However, Li Shiyin was no fool. She could tell at a glance that although this person was disguised, she had also come to rob the sword. That is to say, when Zhao Yaqing greeted her the other day, it was in preparation to rob the sword today.
She replied coldly, "I won't lend it!"
"Sister Shiyin, we have been good friends for many years. It's just to take a look at the innate sword. Why does sister Shiyin have to be so wary?" Zhao Yaqing said.
"Who is good friends with you?" Li Shiyin sneered. She extremely disliked this kind of hypocritical person with a belly full of evil intentions, just like her master.
She disdainfully said, "Calling so affectionately, in fact you just came to rob the sword, right? If you want to rob it, then come down and fight me for it! If you win, you can take it. Acting so high and mighty and saying so much nonsense!"
Zhao Yaqing did come to rob the sword, and she came at just the right time. She had been watching from afar and hurried over after seeing Wu Li Xian's failure, at just the time when Li Shiyin and her apprentice had finished a battle and did not have time to catch their breath. But she was a noble person with good manners, so how could she keep words like robbery and killing in her mouth all the time?
Even for robbery, some justification had to be found, some elegance maintained, some reasonableness kept.Hearing Li Shiyin say such words, she immediately looked down on her in her heart and mocked her, as expected of a general's descendant, so vulgar and low.
"Sister Shiyin really, wants to get violent with others again..." She had really forgotten that she was beaten by Li Shiyin three years ago. She laughed and said, "Still as heroic as ever."
"Are you coming down or not?" Li Shiyin said impatiently. "If not, we're leaving."
"Ha ha ha..." Zhao Yaqing laughed elegantly, glanced at her protector on the left, glanced down at Qin Ran below, and maintained her graceful demeanor. She said, "It seems sister Shiyin really wants to discuss and compete in the dao with me. It just so happens that in the past three years I have also been concentrating on cultivating, and learned some exquisite techniques. So let me cross hands with sister Shiyin to exchange pointers."
She took out a magnificently styled sword from her Universe Bag and said to Li Shiyin, "This is a magic weapon grade treasure sword, named..." She seemed to have forgotten, glanced at the hilt of the sword, and continued, "named Snow Pear Flower."
A magic weapon grade treasure sword? Li Shiyin took a close look at the sword, rolled her eyes, a low grade magic weapon is a low grade magic weapon, and she calls it a magic weapon grade treasure sword.
She raised up her Qingxing Sword but did not say anything.
"This move is called Colorful Clouds Chasing the Sun!" Zhao Yaqing seemed to have great martial prowess. She danced a beautiful sword maneuver elegantly in midair, called out the name of the move to warn Li Shiyin, then sent a sword flying over from midair.
Wearing a light blue long skirt, with her sash fluttering, when this sword came, clouds arose and mist came with it, following behind her, making her seem like a heavenly fairy. This sword was also like clouds and fog, unfathomable, making it difficult for people to respond.
Since Zhao Yaqing wanted to come down to engage in frontal combat with Li Shiyin, Qin Ran took out a Thunder Tribulation Pill from his Universe Bag and held it in his hand to be prepared. He looked up at the protector in midair. At this time, the protector had also drawn out his sword and was vigilant towards him. Qin Ran smiled and tossed the Thunder Tribulation Pill at the protector, then retreated some distance to make space for Li Shiyin and Zhao Yaqing.
Qin Ran and the protector's intentions were very clear. Zhao Yaqing and Li Shiyin were juniors, and their contention would stop between them.
And they both had great confidence in their own disciple.
Needless to say, Zhao Yaqing's cultivation was higher than Li Shiyin's, she had mastered more techniques than Li Shiyin, and she had cultivated longer than Li Shiyin. No matter how you looked at it, she could not lose.
While in Qin Ran's eyes, although Zhao Yaqing's cultivation was high and her techniques exquisite, from this move Colorful Clouds Chasing the Sun, it could be seen that her cultivation was actually superficial. And this little girl Li Shiyin's talent for combat was probably something Zhao Yaqing could not catch up to even on horseback.
If it was a competition in poetry or literary grace, he would have to worry for Li Shiyin, but in fighting...
Zhao Yaqing had pulled herself into Li Shiyin's domain to compete with her.
This sword came from the sky, erratic and unpredictable. Li Shiyin could not find the real thing, knowing that she could not take this sword. So she raised her sword, only pretending to meet the move, then flashed her body to dodge when the sword arrived.
"Shhh..."
This sword slashed into the ground. The sound of the sword edge slashing the ground was like the sound of slicing through the air.
Li Shiyin looked back and saw a long gash and a ten-zhang sized dent on the brown magma ground. The gash was cut out by the sword, and the dent was smashed out by the cloud.
Seeing this scene, Li Shiyin looked back at Zhao Yaqing and saw a smug look of satisfaction on Zhao Yaqing's face. She knew Zhao Yaqing was very pleased with the might of this move. Li Shiyin thought disdainfully to herself that the arrogant girl's control of power was so poor that she would punish her to dig a lake for a month.
Zhao Yaqing pursued with her sword, carrying an arrogant smile. This sword could be sensed, and as Li Shiyin turned around to block it, she warded off this sword.
It seemed that kind of erratic moves could not be used casually. Li Shiyin knew the depth of it in her heart, so she attacked with her sword.
The two beautiful girls fought beautifully in long skirts and swords. There were constant pleasant shouts and the crisp sound of clashing treasure swords. It was actually an artistic scene.
In midair, as Zhao Yaqing's protector watched the two women fighting, she gradually frowned. She saw clearly that Zhao Yaqing was at a disadvantage! Zhao Yaqing was superior in cultivation and strength and speed to Li Shiyin, but her combat skills were far too lacking compared to Li Shiyin...
Compared to Li Shiyin, Zhao Yaqing simply did not know how to fight!
As the battle progressed, Li Shiyin also gradually figured out Zhao Yaqing's depth. This young miss is just a young miss, gentle and delicate. Where would she know how to fight? Gradually, she began to take the initiative and control the situation. Her sword moves were aggressive and her offensive was sharp.
It was very strange. Although her own cultivation was higher and her sword techniques more exquisite, Zhao Yaqing found that she was actually at a disadvantage, and was gradually being led by Li Shiyin's rhythm.
This would not do... Zhao Yaqing's eyebrows wrinkled. She displayed her movement techniques, making her form erratic and unpredictable.
"I have cultivated for several more years after all. My metaphysical arts surpass yours!" She laughed and said, "Little sister, how do you like my Wandering Cloud Dance Steps?"
Zhao Yaqing's figure became unpredictable again. Li Shiyin attacked several times but all hit empty air. This gave Li Shiyin the feeling of punching cotton—very uncomfortable.
"Not bad, being able to run is also an advantage," she replied.
Li Shiyin had not learned body movement techniques yet so she could not catch up to Zhao Yaqing and could not hit her. She gradually lost her advantage and fell into a disadvantage.
"Humph!" She told herself to keep calm. Master had said that only by keeping calm can one find the way to break out of a situation.
Since she could not catch up, then don't chase. She soon thought of meeting the ever-changing with the unchanging. No matter how Zhao Yaqing ran, she still had to attack to beat her in the end.
She unfolded her Starlight Guidance Technique and started defending.
Then Zhao Yaqing was able to fully display her movement techniques, unleashing moves as she pleased around Li Shiyin.
But after more than a dozen moves, Zhao Yaqing found the problem—she could attack freely and held the initiative, but it seemed Li Shiyin had activated some technique. Her strength and speed had greatly increased. Every time she attacked, she would be blocked by Li Shiyin, and then their swords clashed...
Zhao Yaqing found her own hand going numb!
"Such brute force from a fool..." She cursed inwardly, but still had to pull away to activate new techniques again.
"Sword Moving Clouds and Rain!" She shouted lightly, dancing her sword. Wind rose, blowing at her sword. The swaying sword gathered clouds. She pointed forward and the wind blew the clouds above Li Shiyin's head, and it started raining...
But it was not rain, but sword after sword!
"Can't win so you cheat?" Li Shiyin scolded. She quickly spurred her magic power to flee, and swung her Qingxing Sword to block away all the swords falling from the clouds.
But the cloud had locked onto her and chased along with her.
"Trying to cheat, are we?" She was furious in her heart, "I can also attack from afar!"
Thinking thus, starlight began to coalesce on her sword...
"Foolish child, are you going to shoot out the starlight so quickly?" Qin Ran frowned.
But he saw Li Shiyin wave her sword and slap it on a drop of rain sword, dispersing that rain sword. It did not completely disperse, instead all flying towards Zhao Yaqing. Every droplet of the dispersing rain sword elongated into a sword.
"It's not the power of stars..." Qin Ran was dumbfounded, murmuring, "It's Sword Qi!"
