Chapter 913

For a moment, they didn't even have the courage to meet each other's eyes.

With a staggering gait, they slunk off the martial arts stage in disgrace.

Many people could see that Yan Huifeng's martial Dao heart had already been shattered to pieces.

From now on, it would surely be difficult for his cultivation base to make any progress.

The gazes directed at Gu Hanyuan also became increasingly complex.

Those who were hostile toward him were filled with even more apprehension.

Zhen Sushan, however, felt her eyes light up.

She believed she had finally caught a glimpse of the tip of the iceberg of Gu Hanyuan's martial arts.

Her beautiful eyes flickered with growing intensity.

Gu Hanyuan stepped off the martial arts stage with an air of ease.

Amidst Fu Junyu's look of disbelief,

he handed over the long sword in his hand.

He said with a light chuckle:

"Miss Fu, your sword has not been stained with dirty blood. Are you satisfied?"

Fu Junyu was stunned upon hearing this.

Her expression immediately became complex.

She had not expected that Gu Hanyuan would still be mindful of not letting her sword get stained with blood.

As for being "satisfied,"

he was naturally referring to whether the "Yi Sword Technique" was enough to shock her.

Fu Junyu did not immediately take the sword Gu Hanyuan was handing over.

She asked with a solemn expression:

"How do you know the 'Yi Sword Technique'?"

Gu Hanyuan smiled playfully:

"I learned it just now."

Fu Junyu subconsciously denied it:

"Impossible!"

Her expression was extremely unsightly.

For Fu Junyu, who had studied the "Yi Sword Technique" for over a decade,

Gu Hanyuan's words were tantamount to denying her hard work.

She was already jealous of her junior sister, who possessed higher natural talent.

Now, encountering Gu Hanyuan, whose talent was ridiculously strong,

her eyes became somewhat dazed.

Seeing Fu Junyu so concerned about him learning the "Yi Sword Technique" on the spot,

a flash of satisfaction crossed Gu Hanyuan's eyes.

He said in a faint, mysterious tone:

"Actually, I had previously learned a sword technique extremely similar to the 'Yi Sword Technique.' By drawing inferences from that, I naturally learned it very quickly."

Upon hearing this, Fu Junyu seemed to have grasped a lifeline.

A lifeline to prove that she was not a good-for-nothing.

She asked urgently:

"What sword technique?"

Gu Hanyuan chuckled lightly:

"The 'Nine Swords of Dugu'."

"The 'Nine Swords of Dugu'?"

Fu Junyu was filled with confusion.

She had never heard the name "Nine Swords of Dugu" before.

This was actually quite normal.

Dugu Qiubai had gone into seclusion a long time ago.

There were few people in the entire Song Guo who knew the name Dugu Qiubai.

The only successor, Feng Qingyang,

had been living in seclusion on the Siguo Cliff ever since the sword-qi dispute of the Huashan Sect.

As a Goguryeo person, Fu Junyu would be even less likely to know.

Gu Hanyuan said with profound meaning:

"If Miss Fu is interested, you can come and find me."

Fu Junyu was startled upon hearing this.

She thought of what Gu Hanyuan had said earlier about being able to teach her a set of sword techniques.

She wondered if it could be the "Nine Swords of Dugu"?

Since Gu Hanyuan could learn the "Yi Sword Technique" at a glance by drawing inferences from the "Nine Swords of Dugu,"

then if she learned the "Nine Swords of Dugu,"

could she also advance the realm of her "Yi Sword Technique"?

She was immediately greatly tempted.

If the occasion hadn't been inappropriate,

she would have wanted to agree immediately.

After a moment of silence,

Fu Junyu reached out with complex thoughts to take the long sword Gu Hanyuan was handing over.

However, her expression changed again.

Because at the very moment she took the long sword,

she felt the back of her hand being stealthily touched by Gu Hanyuan.

She subconsciously looked at the calm-faced Gu Hanyuan.

And saw the corners of Gu Hanyuan's mouth suddenly curl into a playful arc.

He said softly in a voice only Fu Junyu could hear:

"Miss Fu, remember to come find me at night."

Having said that, he left Fu Junyu with a dashing silhouette,

turning and leaving with an air of ease.

Fu Junyu watched the departing Gu Hanyuan.

Her expression was incomparably complex.

She truly wanted to learn the "Nine Swords of Dugu."

But Gu Hanyuan's near-explicit actions and words made her hesitate.

Coupled with Gu Hanyuan's widespread reputation,

it was equivalent to him having already told her the price of learning the "Nine Swords of Dugu."

This price was too heavy for Fu Junyu, who was still a young girl.

But her jealousy toward her junior sister made it difficult for her to refuse sternly.

Fu Junyu's junior sister, Fu Junqiang,

was not only superior in appearance,

but her talent for martial arts was also extremely high.

Fu Junyu had grown up in the shadow of her junior sister since childhood.

Although there was not much difference in their ages,

Fu Junyu's progress in martial arts could never catch up to Fu Junqiang's.

And as they grew older,

the gap pulled away by Fu Junqiang only grew larger.

Usually, among three brothers or three sisters,
