Just Discharged From the Military and Got Tied Down by A Cold Beauty
Chapter 424: Ordinary People and Liuli Hong

Chapter 424: Chapter 424: Ordinary People and Liuli Hong

Lu Xiao still knew Old Luli quite well, who was also a big shot in the realm of pretense, never using his sword unless it involved a threat to himself.

"Give up; when I wield a sword, I am invincible," Liuli Hong called again.

It was no boast—his skill with a sword was on a whole different level compared to without.

Liuli Hong was absolutely confident in his swordsmanship.

"That’s just your own delusion. In terms of swordsmanship, you’re no different from common poultry in my eyes," Lu Xiao said with disdain.

Liuli Hong instantly began to grind his teeth and grimace.

These words from Lu Xiao, the little rascal, were rather hurtful.

I, Liuli Hong, have been practicing swordsmanship since I was three, reaching the Transformation Realm long ago. Calling me common poultry is simply an insult.

"Fine, fine, fine, then enlighten this common poultry’s swordsmanship! Let’s not compete in Inner Qi today, just the moves," Liuli Hong declared, pointing his sword at Lu Xiao.

Lu Xiao’s lips slightly curled, inwardly thinking, that’s exactly what I was waiting for.

Truthfully, if it really came to a clash with Liuli Hong, he wasn’t very confident.

And even if he could beat Liuli Hong, the expended Mutant Energy would be immense.

He didn’t have that much superpower to waste right now.

"Alright, then ... just the moves," Lu Xiao said cheerfully as he drew his ... belt.

Liuli Hong: ???

Yan Yun on the deck: ???

This skill of taking off your pants at the drop of a hat, so saucy.

"With a sword in the heart, everything becomes a sword," Lu Xiao said to Liuli Hong.

Liuli Hong could barely keep a straight face, thinking, You must have been reading those Immortal fantasy novels too? Damn, are you kidding me, can this really be the same?

In those Immortal fantasy stories, a mere slap could tear mountains and part seas, can we do that?

Can we my der...

"Come on Old Luli, feel what it’s like to face a real master of the sword path," Lu Xiao snapped his belt a few times.

Liuli Hong almost went numb, thinking, me a sword path master with a belt, really outrageous.

"Alright, here I come." But Liuli Hong wasted no more words; he stimulated his Inner Qi and charged towards Lu Xiao.

They weren’t competing in Inner Qi, but to maintain their stance on the sea surface, Inner Qi was necessary; otherwise, they’d simply sink.

Seeing Liuli Hong attack, Lu Xiao waved his arm cheerfully.

In Lu Xiao’s hand, the initially floppy belt instantly stiffened.

Bang!

The next moment, when the sword met the belt, a sound like metal clashing rang out.

Liuli Hong grimaced, knowing Lu Xiao was definitely using Inner Qi to harden the belt.

But that was also fine, not counting as using Inner Qi.

"Come on!" Liuli Hong began to attack frantically, the sword whistling through the air.

Even without using Inner Qi, the sea around Liuli Hong was still stirred up.

The myriad reflections of the sword brought with it mists of water, delivering quite an explosive visual impact.

Yan Yun on the deck was already dumbfounded.

This... was too inhuman.

As for Lu Xiao, he barely attacked, just silently blocking throughout.

Wherever Liuli Hong’s sword appeared, his belt would too.

Since he was using Inner Qi to control the belt, he didn’t have to worry about it being cut by the sword.

One minute, five minutes, ten minutes...

Liuli Hong’s breathing became increasingly rapid.

Had this been on land, Liuli Hong wouldn’t have felt tired so quickly.

In a sea battle, the attack itself required him to use Inner Qi to maintain his form afloat.

"This is the swordsmanship you’re so proud of? Not very impressive," Lu Xiao’s arrogant voice rang out.

Liuli Hong nearly spat blood.

He was now both shocked and furious, shocked that Lu Xiao’s swordsmanship was indeed very strong, strong enough that he hadn’t broken through the defense even after ten minutes of fierce attack; furious that this kid was mocking him again.

"You brat, don’t get cocky, the old man hasn’t given his all yet," Liuli Hong roared, ready to go all out.

"Then save your all for defense. You’ve been attacking for so long, now it’s my turn," Lu Xiao raised an eyebrow, and the next moment, he launched a fierce attack, switching from defense to offense.

"Stab!" Lu Xiao’s first move was a thrust.

A simple frontal stab.

Quick as thunder, elusive as a ghost.

Liuli Hong’s eyes widened instantly. He barely managed to parry with his long sword, the tip clinking as it flicked Lu Xiao’s belt away.

"Cut!" The moment Lu Xiao’s belt was flicked away, the second move followed swiftly.

Almost riding the rebound from the flick, he slashed diagonally downward.

Forceful as splitting bamboo, unstoppable.

The dreadful pressure nearly overwhelmed Liuli Hong.

He could clearly feel the strength of Lu Xiao’s swordsmanship, completely surpassing his own.

His own moves were glamorous and complex, they looked impressive; but Lu Xiao ... one stab, one cut, had already driven him to despair.

To be honest, he had tried this so-called ingenious simplicity himself before.

For nearly twenty years, he practiced only basic sword moves every day.

But the results were never good.

No matter how much he practiced, a simple stab remained a stab, a simple flick remained a flick.

"Impossible! It can’t be!" Liuli Hong gritted his teeth, lifting his long sword, trying desperately to block Lu Xiao’s move.

What he was blocking was not just the technique but his own dignity.

A hundred and fifty years of a swordsmanship career, yet he couldn’t match up to Lu Xiao’s twenty years...

If he couldn’t block it, he would lose face too.
