Chapter 219: You Want to Try?

Jiang Feng's Fingers lightly brushed the cover of the Standing Blade Secret.

He immediately opened the booklet and began reading; at first his gaze still carried a hint of casualness, but after a short while he was completely absorbed.

His eyebrows occasionally furrowed slightly, then relaxed.

His fingers unconsciously traced the movement paths in the air.

Throughout his being, he seemed immersed in the Blade Intent world of the Standing Blade Secret, oblivious to everything outside.

Lu Xiao originally could quietly Standing beside the side waiting, calculating in their mind how long Jiang Feng might need to master this Blade method.

But as time passed Minute by Minute, they suddenly sensed a faint aura emanating from Jiang Feng.

The aura was initially very faint, but after a short while it grew increasingly fierce.

It was a Pure Blade Intent!

At first Lu Xiao didn't pay much attention.

But soon, they felt as if an invisible massive blade hung above their head.

That pressure made their Breath become rapid, and a cold sweat instantly seeped across their back.

They subconsciously gripped the knife hilt at their waist, their Pupils suddenly contracted, full of Shock.

This Blade Intent is too strong!

They had practiced the blade since childhood under their grandfather.

Grandfather was a Dao Zu of the Empire's Three Kings Five Ancestors, a being standing at the pinnacle of the Blade Path.

They had once felt the Blade Intent released at full power by their grandfather, and the Blade Intent now emanating from Jiang Feng, surprisingly bore some similarity!

It should be noted that grandfather had immersed himself in the Blade Path for decades to reach such a Realm.

But Jiang Feng only glanced at the Standing Blade Secret booklet for a while, yet released a Blade Intent comparable to grandfather's?

Lu Xiao couldn't help widening their eyes, heart pounding, their expectation of Jiang Feng instantly maxed out.

Could Jiang Feng be a top Blade Path master comparable to my grandfather? What is his background?

How could someone who runs a Medical Hall possess such terrifying Blade Intent?

The few practice knives placed in the courtyard corner emitted a faint hum, as if trembling.

This pressure lasted for over ten Minutes, and just as Lu Xiao was about to collapse, Jiang Feng suddenly gently closed the pages.

The terrifying Blade Intent vanished instantly without a trace, as if it had never appeared.

The surrounding air began to flow again, and Lu Xiao finally exhaled a great breath, panting heavily.

Jiang Feng, however, remained completely unaware of the powerful Blade Intent he had just released.

He stretched lazily, rubbed his slightly sore neck, and gave Lu Xiao a Laughter.

"Your Standing Blade Secret is indeed impressive, its foundation solid, a good Blade method, but there are many aspects to improve; some moves are too rigid, and several flaws are obvious, making it easy to be targeted in real combat."

He paused briefly, scanning the small courtyard of Ji Shi Tang.

"However, this Place is too small, unsuitable for practicing and improving; do you have any good Place?"

Lu Xiao hadn't recovered from the earlier shock when Jiang Feng spoke, and quickly nodded.

"Yes! The military assigned the Dragon Group a Texun Chang in Chengjiao; there the Place is vast, all kinds of weapons are complete, fully sufficient for improving the Blade method."

"Alright, then Front lead the way."

Jiang Feng said no more, and led the way toward the entrance.

Lu Xiao hurriedly followed, heart still pounding.

The Blade Intent's impact just now was truly overwhelming for them.

They now fully believed Jiang Feng definitely had the ability to improve the Standing Blade Secret.

The two exited Ji Shi Tang.

Lu Xiao arrived in a military‑green off‑road vehicle.

After a little over half an hour, the vehicle stopped outside a heavily guarded gate.

At the gate, several armed guards with loaded rifles stood, and upon seeing Lu Xiao's vehicle, immediately stepped forward to block, their eyes cautiously scanning Jiang Feng inside.

Lu Xiao quickly got out, took out their Dragon Group credentials, and handed them over.

"I am Dragon Group Lu Xiao, bringing a friend to the Texun Chang for some business, routine reporting."

The guard carefully inspected the credentials, then saluted Lu Xiao.

"Group Leader Lu, please enter!"

The vehicle slowly drove in, passing a long tree‑lined path, arriving at the entrance of the Texun Chang.

Jiang Feng's eyes lit up.

The Texun Chang was a massive open plaza, easily several football fields in size.

The ground was cast from a special alloy; around the area, racks displayed the eighteen categories of weapons neatly—knives, spears, swords, halberds, axes, war hammers, hooks, forks, everything, even some heavy training apparatus.

Jiang Feng nodded with satisfaction.

"This Place is indeed good, spacious, weapons complete; we can begin now."

Lu Xiao was stunned for a moment, looking at Jiang Feng with some disbelief.

"So quickly? Mr. Jiang, our family's Standing Blade Secret you still seem not fully familiar with, shall we read the booklet a bit longer?"

After all, the Standing Blade Secret is a blade method passed down in the Lu family for over Hundred Years, its Essence and details countless.

She had thought Jiang Feng would need at least a day or two to study before handling, but after only a little over half an hour he was ready to improve; that was absurd.

Jiang Feng waved his hand, tone relaxed.

"This method isn't difficult; I've already grasped the Core, no long time needed. Now, perform the Standing Blade Secret fully before me; any issue I will immediately point out, this works far better than me just speaking."

"Alright."

Lu Xiao, though full of doubt, had already witnessed Jiang Feng's prowess, chose to trust him, and nodded.

She turned and walked to the weapon rack, pulling out the big sword she usually wields.

The sword was entirely jet‑black, its blade broad and thick, with a faint seep of blood‑Qi emanating.

Lu Xiao gripped the sword with both hands, inhaled deeply, and steadied herself.

Just as she was about to execute the opening move of the Standing Blade Technique, a voice laced with a hint of mockery suddenly came from the entrance of the Texun Chang.

"Group Leader Lu, this place is the Dragon Group's Forbidden Ground; you bringing in an unrelated person at will is probably breaking the Dragon Group's rules, aren't you?"

Lu Xiao's movements halted abruptly, and her complexion darkened instantly.

She turned her head toward the doorway and saw Lei Zhen and Shao Jinpeng walking in from Outside, one after the other.

Lei Zhen wore a haughty Laughter on his face, his eyes full of Provocative Smile as they fixed on Jiang Feng.

Lu Xiao furrowed her brows, stepped forward to stand before Jiang Feng, and said to Lei Zhen in a cold voice.

"Lei Zhen, I brought Mr. Jiang here to improve the Method; we already reported it at the entrance, so it isn't breaking any rule. Moreover, this is the Dragon Group's Texun Chang, not your personal territory, Lei Zhen—you have no right to dictate whom I bring in!"

Lei Zhen glanced at Jiang Feng, and the mockery in his Tone grew stronger.

"Improved Method? He's just a guy who runs a Medical Hall; how can he talk about improving a Method? Group Leader Lu, aren't you being duped by this kid?"

Shao Jinpeng echoed in agreement.

"Exactly, Group Leader, this kid is a Jianghu Swindler, he knows nothing about improving a Method; don't be fooled by him. If he ends up abolishing your Lu family's Standing Blade Technique, it would be a loss you can't afford!"

Although Lu Xiao's Injury was almost fully cured, Lei Zhen did not leave; instead, he continued to act as Group Leader.

Thus during this period, Shao Jinpeng stayed by Lei Zhen's side almost constantly, effectively becoming Lei Zhen's confidant.

Upon hearing that, Jiang Feng faintly.

"How about it? You want to try touching?"
