Chapter 371 News about Venerable Qianhua
The white snow is like a delicate velvet blanket, gently covering the antique eaves.
In the early morning, the golden sunshine quietly fell, just lighting up this silver-covered world. The warm sun in Bei Aozhou is like a gentle paintbrush, painting everything in the snow with a golden edge.
In the yard, the young man was wearing a carefully tailored black velvet robe. The robe looked simple, but in fact it had a fine velvet surface and a faint sheen. But pure black is taboo in Bei Aozhou, so the collar of the velvet robe is dotted with a circle of high-collared white hair, which is like a pile of snow in winter, forming a sharp contrast with the black body of the robe. Wearing this outfit on the young man, it complemented his restrained and calm temperament, and also revealed a faint sense of distant nobility.
The young man holds the sword, and the sword is beautiful. The collar and felt hat covered most of the young man's face, but his outstanding aura alone was enough to highlight his specialness.
But there are actually two such special men.
You Su's black pupils were as deep as ink, and he was completely focused on the opponent in front of him - a being who looked exactly like him, like a shadow in the mirror.
The two people's body shapes, movements and even their eyes are strikingly similar, as if they are the same person traveling through time and space. They all held long black swords, the tips of the swords shone coldly in the sun, and a silent but fierce battle began.
At the beginning of the battle, there was a tense atmosphere in the air. You Su and his "shadow" were strong and strong, and their sword moves were fierce. Every confrontation was accompanied by the sound of wind, as if even the air was cut by the sharp sword energy.
Sometimes they were fighting in close quarters, their swords blazing like weaving, airtight; sometimes they were confronting each other at a distance, testing each other and looking for flaws. However, whether it was speed, strength or strategy, the two were equally matched, and it seemed like a never-ending tug-of-war.
The strange thing is that even though the battle is so fierce and the fighting must be exchanged several times within a breath, there is no harsh metal collision sound, as if... the two swords have never really collided together.
At this moment of stalemate, one of You Su suddenly stopped, as if time had frozen at this moment. He no longer dodges or attacks, he just stands there quietly, letting the other Yusu's sword stab at him like lightning, straight into his chest.
However, when the long sword penetrated the chest of the "target", it did not bring the expected blood and screams. Instead, a strange light flashed through, and the "pierced" Yusu was unscathed. You Su, who was holding the sword, gradually dissipated in shock, turned into dots of starlight, and finally returned to nothingness.
After the battle, the courtyard returned to calm again, leaving You Su alone. Looking at the "shadow" that gradually dissipated, a trace of complicated emotions flashed in his eyes:
"They were all taught by the same master, so they can't break the tricks..."
He sighed softly, with a hint of helplessness in his tone, but more of an excitement.
Just now, when he stood still and waited for the other 'self' to penetrate him, he still couldn't help but feel a hint of fear. Even though he knew it was fake and the sword couldn't hurt him at all, that self was so real that it was completely possible to fake it. In that dazed moment, he would also have a trace of hesitation, what if that was true?
Then after the false alarm, there was an even bigger surprise.
The ability that the black jellyfish brought to Yusu was not the rare spatial ability, but the ability to transform into one's true form at will was definitely considered the best.
Yu Su considers himself to be a formidable opponent to all his past enemies. Yuan Sword and Liansheng Sword Technique combined have a wide range of moves, allowing him to easily deal with most situations. As long as there is not an absolute gap in strength, there is almost no chance that You Su will be defeated by one blow. And now, coupled with his illusion trick, which is false and true, false and true, it wears down the opponent's will and exhausts his patience through constant fighting, and then finds the enemy's flaw to kill him with one strike.
You Su could already predict that this move would become another weapon for him to turn defeat into victory in the future.
However, the illusion also has limitations, that is, it can only transform itself, and the transformed self cannot make sounds, and its movements have no real feeling. For example, when you swing a sword quickly, there will be a corresponding sharp sound that tears the air, but the illusion does not really exist in this world, and swinging the sword cannot even bring up a wisp of wind.
More importantly, illusions cannot cause any effective damage, so in most cases illusions only have the function of confusing the opponent. In order to make this function as realistic as possible, Yu Su needs to artificially add some realism...
The more You Su thought about it, the more excited he became. All in all, this ability still has a lot of room for optimization, but its potential is also very great.
"What would be a good name for it..."
You Su crossed his arms and thought with interest. Suddenly he had an idea and said to himself happily:
"Let's just call it Shadow Stream Technique."
You Su had been fighting swords with his clone all morning, and now he was tired. I have to admit that the improvement brought about by myself and my sword skills is far beyond what I can achieve by practicing swordplay alone.
Knowing his own sword moves well, he can command the illusion to respond with clever moves, and then he can use them again. This goes back and forth, but it is not endless. Eventually, you will encounter a situation that even You Su cannot deal with perfectly. In this way, the loopholes in the past practice can be seen at a glance, and the efficiency is extremely high.
Bai Ze lay on the bed and slept lightly, his eyelids raised, he seemed relieved to see You Su returning to the room, he subconsciously meowed and rubbed his head, sleeping more soundly.
You Su shook his head helplessly. Just as he was about to sit down, he suddenly seemed to sense something.
Under the warm sun, Master Oshu, dressed in colorful Taoist uniforms, was already standing in the yard. He waved to You Su and said kindly:
"Good morning."
Without waiting for You Su to answer, Master Oshu walked into the room on his own, and Bai Ze quickly slipped into bed, not daring to reveal his presence.
"Not bad, not bad." Master Oshu looked at You Su, "These clothes from Qianhua Pavilion are really good. I spent a lot of money to buy them for you. They look like me."
These clothes were specially sent to You Su by Master Oshu last night. The reason is naturally very simple. Since You Su wants to walk as a disciple of Master Oshu, it would be better to wear the beast robe like a primitive man than to wear fancy clothes. More arousing suspicion.
You Su also thought it was reasonable, so he had to change it.
"Did you buy this from Qianhua Pavilion?"
"Do you know Qianhua Pavilion?" Master Oshu sat down casually, pouring himself a drink and looking at You Su with raised eyebrows.
"I've heard a little bit." You Su didn't forcefully deny it. He knew very well that covering one's ears at this time would only make others more suspicious.
"Qianhua Pavilion is not something everyone knows about in Bei Aozhou. Just like the good tea, good clothes can only be worn by the rich and powerful." Lord Oshu smiled and fiddled with the tea cup, and continued road, "Qianhua Pavilion originated in Zhongyuan Continent, and is quite popular in Nanyang Continent and Xihuang Continent in Zhongyuan Continent. Unfortunately, it is freezing cold in North Aozhou, so everyone wraps up their coats and wears cotton just to keep warm. As for beauty, Not important at all. Therefore, everyone in Bei Aozhou wore black, white and gray. Until forty years ago, the master of Qianhua Pavilion, Venerable Qianhua, did not believe in this evil. Under the ridicule of many people, he forcibly opened a new store in Bei Aozhou. A store. Guess what will happen from now on? "Obviously that woman is as dangerous as a snake, and the relationship between You Su and her cannot be described as warm, but when you hear this familiar name, You Su's heart is still touched.
She had bet her treasure on herself, but now that her 'master' was being beaten by everyone in the five continents, she was afraid that she wished she could have distanced herself from her relationship as early as possible. I just hope she can protect herself wisely and don't add insult to injury. After all, You Su couldn't really guarantee that this family relationship would be able to secure a venerable Dongxu realm, let alone such a smart woman.
"Hey, I have a question for you." Master Oshu knocked on the table to remind You Su to come back to his senses.
Only then did You Su react, "Guess what?"
"I don't even need to count your fingers to know that you are thinking about women." Venerable Oshu rubbed his chin and smiled maliciously, "I'll let you guess what Venerable Qianhua looks like. What does it look like?”
"Not interested." You Su replied coldly.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you are no longer interested in the beauties who rank among the top in the five continents at such a young age. Are you not the Snow Rabbit?" the Master of Mathematical Olympiad joked.
You Su twitched the corner of his mouth. He had also heard some slang in Bei Aozhou. Snow rabbit means "Long Yang" in the slang of Bei Aozhou.
"I see you are dressed in fancy clothes, you are the one, right?" You Su retorted.
"Young hero, you have such good eyesight!" Master Olympus immediately agreed without any hesitation.
You Su's expression immediately changed, thinking of all the things the other party had done to help him, he suddenly felt a chill in his back.
Seeing his nervous demeanor, Master Oshu couldn't help laughing heartily. When he was tired of laughing, he teased:
"I'm not kidding you anymore. I'm telling you the truth. Don't deceive yourself. That Venerable Qianhua is a famous beauty from all over the world. She is rich and powerful. I don't know how many men want to be close to such a smooth and tender thigh. . If you see it, I will take away your soul.”
"Oh?" You Su raised his eyebrows, pretending not to care, "How stunning is she?"
"That's true. The fish falls before the wild goose, and the moon closes and the flowers shy away. Every frown and smile can melt the ice and snow in Bei Aozhou." Venerable Oshu touched his chin, with an afterthought on his face, "There are so many beautiful female cultivators in the world, If you want to stand out, you must have your own characteristics, and this Venerable Qianhua is very unique. Years of traveling in the business world, dealing with shrewd and cunning merchants, this experience gave her an indescribable shrewd temperament, and her long stay in the world has made her a naturally noble woman. It really has a unique charm.”
"It's full of contrast." You Su commented.
Upon hearing this, Master Olympus glanced at You Su meaningfully: "It seems that you understand very well..."
"It's just a guess." You Su also sat down casually and drank tea.
"Everyone can guess, but it's a pity that no one has been able to conquer such a woman so far." Venerable Oshu sighed with emotion, but there was no admiration in his eyes. For the famous Venerable Qianhua, he also felt that Just admire its skin.
"You came to me just to talk about a woman you can't catch?" You Su asked back.
"What you are saying is so boring." Master Olympus frowned in disgust, "If you can't catch me, why don't you just take a look? There are so many beauties in this world, do you have to keep them for yourself? Young man, you can't Too narrow-minded.”
You Su also frowned when he heard this, "Look? What do you think? Isn't she in Zhongyuan Continent?"
"How did you know she was in Zhongyuanzhou?"
You Su was stunned, "It was you who just said that Qianhua Pavilion originated from Zhongyuan Continent."
Venerable Oshu smiled with a sudden smile on his face, "You are smart. I haven't finished talking just now. Qianhua Pavilion established a branch in Bei Aozhou. I thought it would end in a violent death, but it turned out to be the end of Venerable Qianhua. It was brought back to life under the operation, and now it is even more Leading the aesthetic trend of the second generation of officials in Bei Aozhou, it will be the 40th anniversary of the opening of the first Qianhua Pavilion in Bei Aozhou in a while. Venerable Qianhua recently visited Fei City to prepare for the celebration. ”
"That is to say...she is in Bei Aozhou?!" You Su unconsciously tightened his tea cup.
"Yes, otherwise why would I have been chatting with you for so long?" Venerable Oshu blew the steam from the warm tea in the cup, "I came here to say that the matter in Shuocheng is over, and we can return to the Holy Mountain today. Just now I only thought about this when we talked about the Venerable Qianhua. The road from Feicheng to the Holy Mountain is not smooth, but it won't be too far. I wonder if you have any idea about the beauty of that fairy. If you are interested, I will take you to take a detour to see the excitement. After all, although the trail is not famous, it still has some status in Bei Aozhou. It is not difficult to get a closer look at this famous fairy at the celebration... but you. I told you that you are not interested. It seems that there is something urgent to do, so we will set off immediately and rush to the sacred mountain."
You Su was silent for a long time after hearing this, but suddenly asked: "How close can it be?"
Venerable Oshu was stunned at first, and then he said at a loss of whether to laugh or cry: "How close do you want to be? You just said you were not interested, but now you want to get into someone's arms? I advise you to give up. Venerable Qianhua secretly said The reputation of it is not good, and many men end up with hemiplegia.”
However, You Su knew that this was not the case. Venerable Qianhua appeared to be a wild man, but he was actually a virgin. She is also extremely disgusted with men. Even if she plays with them, they are actually playing with slave girls. Those men are actually disliked by her or have annoyed her, and she just found a reason to punish them.
"How will you know if you don't try? Even if it doesn't work, it's not a bad idea to take a look."
"That's the truth." Master Olympus clapped his hands, "Young people, don't suppress the desires in your heart. If you don't look at beautiful women at your age, how can you do it at my age?"
You Su raised his eyebrows, "What is your purpose of coaxing me to go to that celebration all the time?"
Lord Olympus chuckled, "I know I can't hide it from you, kid. I'll take you closer to see that rare beauty in the world. This is a big help. In return, you should do me a small favor."
"What are you busy with?"
"Let that Venerable Qianhua... shed some water!"
