Chapter 60: Ch. 29 Part 2

Xiao Ling regained some momentum, he activated the acquired skills and stood on guard, he listened on carefully differenciating each sounds. Yanzhi smirked satisfied seeing that Xiao Ling was catching on to what he was trying to teach him, in a blink of an eye he disappeared from where he stood moments ago and appeared at the side of Xiao Ling as he striked.

Clang!

Their weapons clashed together as Xiao Ling reacted to Yanzhi’s attack and defended, although his reaction wasn’t perfect and in time he was still able to defend perfectly. This made him regained his confidence thinking he can do it if he tried, they both jumped back creating a distance in between. "That’s it, you’re starting to get it. You already have the abilities and you’ve been thought them, learn how to use them well in your battles" Yanzhi praised. "En!" he answered in his nasal and nodded.

"Mistress was able to perceive master’s attack and defended!!!!" Liu said belated, the rest also had smiles on their faces. "I think mistress won’t be taking more damages from master!" Lin added. Doctor Shi and Jinhua just watched quietly without uttering any words, they were astonished and speechless, to be able to witness such sparring between two masters, they were glad.

Xiao Ling still not able to use the skills acquired properly chose to defend instead of attacking, he remained in his spot guarded. He felt something within him changing at fast pace, when he first occupied his now current body Xiao Ling could tell that he wasn’t able to control the body well and make it solely his. But now he felt that changing, the body and his soul was merging at speed making him very comfortable with the body than he was not long ago. He could feel the body and his soul becoming one making movements and actions more easier for him.

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

The continuos clashing sounds of metals continued to resonate as Yanzhi strike Continuously with Xiao Ling doing his best to defend. With him being on his guard and perceiving his surroundings Continuously, Xiao Ling perfected himself in using the skills.

Xiao Ling decided to go from defending to attacking after getting used and familiriazed with the skills, he charged at Yanzhi who looked at him with approving eyes and with great anticipation. Xiao Ling strike with the dagger in his right hand, but just as the attack was breaths away from Yanzhi, Yanzhi vanished from the spot. Xiao Ling maintained a cool head and listened on picking out the sounds, he raised his left hand and blocked an incoming attack from his side then attacked straight away with his right. Heavy clang resonated as Yanzhi blocked his attack with a whoosh sound of wind, both their aura resonated with each other creating a strong clash of aura. It was as if they were no longer fighting with their weapons but instead they were having a clash with spiritual energy. They were ingulfed in strong wind which rised from their energy clashing together, they both withdrew back their weapons as if having the same thoughts to clash one more time. It was as if they both tactically agreed that they were going to decide the end of their sparring with that one last clash. Xiao Ling striked head on infusing all his qi into his attack, Yanzhi also put a little effort in his attack as both their weapons clashed. Strong striking wind was sent to each other, Yanzhi easily deflected the sword aura sent by Xiao Ling to his side. He intentionally made his attack missed Xiao Ling by an inch leaving a very deep and long slash on ground right beside Xiao Ling.

"Mistress!"

"Master Ling!"

Yue and her siblings as well as doctor Shi and Jinhua shouted in unison, their hearts almost leaped out of their mouths thinking Yanzhi’s attack was going to hit Xiao Ling. But what they didn’t know was that the whole time Yanzhi was sparring with Xiao Ling he was making sure to take notice of Xiao Ling’s situation and what Xiao Ling could stand. If he really wanted to harm Xiao Ling he would have done that since considering the numerous of times he made his attacks missed it’s targets. When he told Xiao Ling he wasn’t going hold back that didn’t mean he was going to attack with full strength, Yanzhi only used 1/100 of his full strength and Xiao Ling himself could tell that Yanzhi went easy on him.

’Ah.....I’m so tired. I just wanna rest’ he thought as his body looked very weak and frail at the moment. Unable to support himself due to him being out of strength, his body swayed and was about to fall. Yanzhi hurried over to him and caught him in his arms in time, he laid Xiao Ling on his laps.

’Ah~ the names of some of my skills has been changed, is it to adjust to this era or because I’m cultivating? It seems the Shadow Monarch’s System has taken over the player’s System, and dungeon monsters and system? Does that mean i could go back to the original world? Not that i care about it now but if I’m truly able to go back, hmph then Xiao Fan should be prepared for what’s coming. I hope Xiong gong would agree for us to go when the time comes, but for now i need to get stronger and be able to use 100% strength and power of the Shadow Monarch. Sparring with Xiong gong made me level up so many times, i guess that’s more effect for me if i want to regain back my previous strength. I should let Xiong gong spar with me from time to time’ he thought weakly. He blink a couple of times before his eyes completely shut off not able to hold onto his consciousness.

Yanzhi holding the weak and fainted youngster in his arms felt depressed and his heart ache. Seeing Xiao Ling in such a state felt as if his heart was being crushed by a heavy force, but he knew that for Xiao Ling to get stronger and get better at harnessing his full strength he couldn’t go easy on him in training. In training Xiao Ling he pushed away the guilty of hurting Xiao Ling but after training and him regaining back his carefree and calm demeanor the guilt came crashing him as if he was carrying a heavyweight on his conscience. He took out a porcelain bottle from his space, he opened the cork and took out a pill from it feeding it into Xiao Ling’s mouth. The pill melted as soon as it touched Xiao Ling’s lips as it flowed down into his throat passing in Xiao Ling’s veins and dantian, Xiao Ling who had passed out moaned out comfortably feeling better and warmth. Yanzhi chuckled, the pill he fed Xiao Ling is a medicine to heal his wounds. The wounds on Xiao Ling’s body vanished after the medicine set in, Yanzhi brought his finger to Xiao Ling’s forehead and started sending his qi into Xiao Ling’s depleted dantian, he raised his other had to carress Xiao Ling’s face when he noticed that half of his sleeve has been cut off at the side. He stared stunned for moment before he smiled "you were able to leave a cut on my clothes, i truly commend you. But little wife you’re far faraway from being able to fully make that power yours, i wait in anticipation to see when you’re strong enough to wield that power then we can fight seriously and with full power, hopefully by then i would also regain all my power" he said lightly with a smile as he stroked Xiao Ling’s face. He suddenly stopped and frowned "i guess i should also start taking things seriously since I’ve decided to take disciples, my disciples now are truly weak" he stated with a frown. He hadn’t seriously been training Yue and her siblings since taking them under his wings, things weren’t convenient for him living with the Jun family but now that he was no longer being held down by them Yanzhi has decided to prepare his disciples and started training down seriously. He stood up on his feet carrying Xiao Ling in his arms, he turned his attention to the people around. "Feng I’ll leave Mei Lin in your care to teach her alchemy, since she has suffered qi deviation from force advancement, she can not be a combat cultivator. So have her try with alchemy and if she’s not suitable for it, I’ll teach her something else" he voiced out. Feng saluted "Feng understands" Feng respectfully replied. There are different types of cultivation, Yue and the rest were combat cultivators with the exception of Feng who was cultivating for alchemy, because of his body structure and him not having the suitable body for combat. Yanzhi thought him alchemy, but like the others who were learning a little bit of alchemy to go by in case of emergency when one needed medicine to survive but lack them and in a dangerous and inconvenient situation when they couldn’t get an alchemist to refine for them. Then they could do it on their own even though it wouldn’t be as perfect as refined by an alchemist, just like them Feng was also learning some martial arts and combat techniques to be able to get himself out of dangerous situation.

"All of you now get back to training, Baihu and Chang you’re excused from your punishment.."

"Chang thanks master!"

"Baihu thanks master!"

They both saluted and respectfully said. "From now on your training starts seriously, you all are too weak compared to little wife. But as you can see without proper training he is considered this weak, and how will you all far when he couldn’t do much. From now on I’ll be taking the training seriously with you" he informed coldly. The disciples shivered with their attentions on Xiao Ling, they really didn’t want to end up like their mistress. Their mister didn’t go easy on Xiao Ling who was his wife, then how would he train them who were his disciples. They didn’t want to think about it at all, but still they all saluted respectfully "disciples understand!" they said in unison with no one having the courage to refute. "Good! Liu continue with doctor Shi and Jinhua’s cultivation and Lin train your juniors, since Yue doesn’t have anything to do now let her assist you. I’ll go back with little wife" he walked away as soon as his words fell giving no one the chance to add anything to his words. They sighed resigning to their fates.
