The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 573
[Chapter 573 Discussing Tao]
When the middle-aged swordsman heard this, he was slightly startled and looked at the old woman. For a moment, he didn’t know what to say.
Qiang——
A bit of cold light bloomed in the night sky, and a sharp sword moved forward.
The light sword made Fang Xiu and Zhao Yan behind the old woman feel even more pressure, as if they were not facing one person and one sword, but thousands of troops!
Zhao Yan almost cursed when she saw this scene.
How could it be like this? Just a moment ago, you asked someone for their identity, and the next second, you took action without saying a word. What is the difference between this and a sneak attack?
When Fang Xiu saw this sword, he thought differently from Zhao Yan.
Although his martial arts skills are poor, he knows quite a few people with strong martial arts skills.
If nothing else, Liang Hu is also a master of swordsmanship. Of course, his natural weapon is actually a sword. Only Fang Xiu knows this.
This middle-aged swordsman’s sword seemed sharp and unstoppable, but in his opinion, it was only slightly stronger than Liang Hu’s sword at best.
Moreover,
Liang Hu’s sword was made from the blood of his enemies after years of fighting on the border. However, the sword of this middle-aged swordsman was just like when he was swinging it. It was light and graceful, but it was actually too soft and completely Not as sharp as a swordsman should be.
Such a swordsman may not be able to win even if he faces Liang Hu, let alone a true master-level master?
Sure enough, as Fang Xiu expected, when the swordsman drew his sword, the old woman also used her hidden weapon.
This time, it was not a hidden weapon that looked like a stone, but a small sword.
To be precise, it was only one-tenth the size of a normal sword blade. If you didn’t distinguish it carefully, you would think it was slightly larger. Needle.
Clang –
the two ‘sword blades’ collided, and sparks burst out in the night sky.
The old woman’s ‘sword blade’ was deflected, but the swordsman also took back his sword.
It seemed that they were evenly matched, but in fact
the hand holding the sword of the middle-aged swordsman was trembling slightly.
With just one move, the middle-aged swordsman already knew in his heart that he was no match for the old woman in front of him.
His eyes narrowed slightly and he assumed an offensive posture.
The old woman had the same indifferent expression as before, as if she didn’t care about the swordsman at all.
“You want to save the emperor?”
The swordsman glanced at the old woman, then at Fang Xiu and Zhao Yan behind her, and asked.
None of the three spoke.
When the middle-aged swordsman saw this, he sneered and said calmly: “He has been poisoned by the Poison Gu Sect’s unique secret technique. Even if you rescue him, it will be useless!” On
this point, what he said was correct.
After Zhao Yan heard this, her expression became a little cold. She took a step forward, looked at the middle-aged swordsman, and said coldly: “How will you know if you don’t give it a try?”
The middle-aged swordsman was slightly startled when he heard her voice. , seemed to have recognized her identity, and called her by name: “Who is it? It turns out to be Her Royal Highness
the Princess. What’s the trouble? Your Majesty the Emperor is living a good life in the other courtyard. There is no trouble with documents, no mess with silk and bamboo.” , isn’t this what he has always wanted?
What’s wrong with His Majesty Prince Ning supervising the country on his behalf? This is the same in the
world
. No matter who sits on it, the result will be the same.
Do you know that His Highness Prince Ning is not as good as the current emperor?
In the end, the current emperor is not responsible for the natural and man-made disasters in the Central Plains?”
The middle-aged swordsman kept talking as soon as he opened his mouth.
His talkative appearance was completely inconsistent with Fang Xiu’s image of a swordsman.
When Zhao Yan heard what he said, she couldn’t help but argue with him: “If an unfaithful, unfilial, benevolent, and unjust person dominates the world, it will only be a disaster for the people of the world!
What’s more, my father is also Without confirming the candidate for the crown prince, he did such a crazy thing. Is it possible for a future king to do this?” When
the middle-aged swordsman heard this, he sneered twice, opened his mouth, and wanted to say something else ?
something.
At this time, there was a sudden sound of heavy armor stepping on the ground not far away.
Fang Xiu and Zhao Yan subconsciously turned their heads to look.
Not far away, he saw an endless line of heavily armored guards holding swords and shields, walking towards them.
When Zhao Yan saw this, she turned back to look at the middle-aged swordsman and cursed loudly: “So you are delaying time, shameless!” When
the middle-aged swordsman heard this, he sneered twice, with a smug expression on his face and said: ” You obviously have the strength to crush them, but you can’t do anything about it. I can only say that you are too stupid!”
Zhao
Yan looked angry when she heard this and was speechless.
At this time, the old woman who had been silent before looked at the middle-aged swordsman and said, “Do you know why you are so far behind your master?”
When the middle-aged swordsman heard this question, he was slightly startled, and his expression became a little cold. He looked at the old woman and asked, “Why?”
The old woman looked at the middle-aged swordsman, shook her head, and said: “Your master cultivates the way of freedom, but you are blinded by the fame and fortune in front of you. You have mastered the way of swordsmanship to this point, which is already a gift.
You want to go further, but It’s even harder than climbing to the sky.”
When the middle-aged swordsman heard this, his expression became extremely cold.
He has been practicing swordsmanship with his master since he was a child, and his swordsmanship has improved day by day. His master once told him that he was born for the art of swordsmanship!
However,
ever since he entered Prince Ning’s Mansion and served as Prince Ning’s servant, his swordsmanship has stopped there and has not improved at all.
It turns out that his master once told him that talent is the most important thing in martial arts.
However, even those with extraordinary talents need to study hard for thirty years if they want to reach a first-class level.
To become a master, the right time, place, and right people are indispensable, and it will take fifty years at the earliest.
But
if he studies swordsmanship carefully, he will have the opportunity to become a master in just forty years.
Now, he has practiced martial arts for more than forty years, but his swordsmanship is even worse than before.
After hearing what the old woman said, she finally became angry and cursed: “A foolhardy bird knows the ambitions of a swan!
Martial arts and swordsmanship are only small roads, and temples are the main road!”
After saying this, he once again clenched the weapon in his hand. The sword, using sword skills, pointed at the old woman.
When the old woman saw this, she shook her head, sighed, and waved her sleeves.
Three more small swords flew towards the middle-aged swordsman, so fast that they even left tracks in the night sky!
When the middle-aged swordsman saw these small swords, his pupils shrank slightly, and he naturally stopped and raised his sword to block.
But not far away, the guards in heavy armor were getting closer and closer!
Seeing this, Zhao Yan looked anxious, looked at the old woman, and said loudly: “Mommy, hurry up and save your father, otherwise it will be too late!”
The old woman ignored her and looked at the palace wall. Position, tap the ground lightly, and the whole person flies backwards.
When he passed Zhao Yan and Fang Xiu, he grabbed their collars and led them directly onto the palace wall!
