Chapter 215: Another God-Demon Wanderer
Many people know the name of the swordsmanship master Robert.
On the one hand, his swordsmanship is very handsome and superb; as one of the top five swordsmanship masters, he should naturally "have a name."
On the other hand, it is because the legendary figure from the previous generation, who was called the Sword Saint, once commented on Robert, saying his swordsmanship should have reached a higher level, but unfortunately he became lazy after gaining fame.
He did not continue to diligently improve his swordsmanship; otherwise, he would have become a stronger swordsmanship master than he is now.
Whether this is true or just a rumor, people speculate endlessly.
But Robert is indeed not a diligent person, as can be seen from his taking the easy job of royal swordsmanship instructor.
For a swordsmanship master like Robert, teaching a little prince and a little princess can exercise the body, involve some flashy but impractical swordsmanship, and is absolutely effortless.
So when Tang Luo appeared out of nowhere, Robert had sufficient reason to be angry.
It was already a very easy job, yet he did not expect someone to be lying around nearby, clearly slacking off.
This made Robert feel very hard-pressed, even though he himself knew the workload had not increased, he could not get past that mental hurdle.
Why should that bastard be able to be more lazy than me?
Is having great strength so impressive?
As for the so-called Lonely Nine Swords, Robert clearly knows that it is not swordsmanship at all, merely relying on one's great strength to bully people—let alone him, Charles can also see that.
And what Charles cannot see, Robert can also see, such as, besides having great strength, control is also very strong.
This can be included in having great strength, or it can be excluded.
A person who can lift 300 jin, when lifting a 50-jin object, naturally finds it as light as a feather, with perfect control, able to stop whenever he says stop.
But if lifting a 280-jin object, he cannot achieve this.
If after rigorous training, one can improve one's control, achieving the effect of lifting 280 jin as light as a feather.
Of course, at this point, the upper limit of weightlifting is also increasing.
In short, Robert knows that the Mirror Master is a dangerous person.
So he chooses to "temporarily avoid the sharp edge."
He first takes several days off, letting that Xuanzang take over himself, to see what he can do.
Robert even drew inspiration from Tang Luo's behavior, perhaps he can encourage hiring another royal swordsmanship instructor, so that he too can slack off.
Best of all, he could kick Xuanzang out, leaving only himself to slack off and be lazy, which would be ideal.
For this, Robert looks at the person before him and asks: "Do you want to help me?"
"Yes." The person opposite Robert nods.
This can barely be counted as an acquaintance of Tang Luo, his "sworn younger brother."
When Tang Luo first encountered the "Little Li Flying Dagger" in the martial arts legends, it was probably because the character Li Xunhuan was truly special, and even using the name felt strange.
So he generally calls himself "Li Huan."
Later, Tang Luo also encountered Yunxiao Huan, the holder of the Ye Kai destiny, who is closely related to this Li Huan.
Li Huan can be considered the "shadow" of Yunxiao Huan; the two are almost like master and disciple, despite having different destinies, the relationship between the two destiny holders happens to be reversed.
Yunxiao Huan, the holder of the Ye Kai destiny, is Li Huan's master.
"How to help me?" Robert sits on his soft chair at home, looking lazy.
However, one can see that his sword is placed within easy reach.
"See what level you want to achieve." Li Huan says, appearing to be alone, with no other god-demon wanderers around him.
I also do not know exactly what the mission is, whether it conflicts with Tang Luo's mission, or if anyone is with him doing the same mission.
Generally speaking, even if missions differ, being on the same side does not mean they will conflict completely.
The same mission does not necessarily occur in the same place.
Tang Luo's previous survival mission was like this—finding companions was part of the mission.
This time, what will it be like?
"What level? Of course, to get that damned Mirror Xuanzang to roll away, and best to find someone to replace me in teaching those two little brats, while I just watch from the side." Robert says.
One can see that Li Huan's eye corners visibly twitched twice.
His mission is actually very similar to Tang Luo's, both being to protect the life of the person before him named Robert, and then fulfill his wish.
Compared to Tang Luo's relatively clear mission of making Olianna the queen and ruler of Taosent.
Fulfilling a wish like this is comparatively vague and broad.
It can be said to be very easy to complete; if lucky, Robert wanting to eat something in the morning, Li Huan lets him eat it, and that counts as completion.
If unlucky, Robert wanting the stars in the sky—then he's screwed.
The former is called the gods and demons' mercy, the latter the gods and demons' malice.
If it is malice, Li Huan will definitely abandon Robert and go dig for other benefits in this mission world, until the mission fails and he returns.
Now the situation is even more complicated.
The Lonely Nine Swords, this title was heard by Li Huan from Robert's mouth just yesterday, and at that time he took note of it.
As Robert spoke of what he wanted, Li Huan became even more certain that the self-styled Xuanzang, who claims to use the Lonely Nine Swords, is none other than Tang Xuanzang!
"Is his mission different from mine?" Li Huan silently wonders, "Should we jointly cancel the backlash?"
Both being members of the Martial Arts Legends, after signing the contract, if they attack each other they would suffer a great backlash, but Martial Arts Legends is not entirely harmonious, always having disputes, and in the end they must rely on force to resolve them.
God-demon wanderers are essentially also a group of people who use force.
The contract naturally takes this into account; whether it existed before is unknown, but at least now it definitely does.
As long as the contract members agree, they can cancel the mutual harm backlash and can attack each other without worry.
"Hey, how is it, can you do it?" Seeing Li Huan silent, Robert speaks somewhat impatiently.
"Is this your wish?" Li Huan does not immediately agree.
If it is confirmed to be Robert's wish, he can then boldly and wholeheartedly go about completing it.
Robert tilted his head and thought for a while before saying, "I guess so."
"What do you mean 'I guess so'? It either is or it isn't." Li Huan said, he really disliked this type of mission.
Having to accommodate others, I don't fear divine opponents, I fear pig teammates.
This kind of task, similar to protection, helping people fulfill their wishes, encountering a "pig teammate" really makes one want to kill.
Compared to that, Li Huan would rather go kill some dangerous target, this kind of simple and brutal task.
Fulfill wishes? He's not Santa Claus.
"Let me think." Robert thought again, then stated clearly, "Yes, this is my wish."
"Good!" Santa Claus Li Huan immediately agreed, "I will help you fulfill your wish."
"So kind-hearted?" Robert looked at this person he had not known for long.
"Of course, because I also need a job." Li Huan said, "Court swordsmanship instructor is a decent job."
"You know swordsmanship?" Robert asked curiously, he also didn't know Li Huan very well.
Knowing this person's strength is not ordinary, his origins mysterious.
"Want to see?" Li Huan asked, he didn't know any profound swordsmanship.
But however you say it, he is also of the fate of Little Li Flying Dagger, a martial arts master, many things are shared.
Performing a swordsmanship that is both beautiful and powerful is no problem, being a court swordsmanship instructor is no issue.
"Just take a look, not practice." Robert said, recalling that day's experience, his expression not very good.
He felt the person before him was somewhat similar to that Xuanzang, not in appearance or demeanor, but in a feeling, feeling they came from the same place.
"Alright, give me the sword." Li Huan stood up, he must demonstrate his worth to better complete the task.
Robert pointed to the sword placed on the wall.
This sword looks quite ornate, but actually it's just a prop, a typical decoration.
Used to demonstrate swordsmanship it's fine, but in actual combat, it basically breaks with one strike—even a harder piece of wood could smash it.
Li Huan didn't mind, stood up and took the decorative sword from the wall, glanced at the rather spacious living room: "Here then, I can perform."
"Fine." Robert nodded.
Li Huan then could dance with the sword in his hand.
Robert's lazy expression on his face tightened, the swordsmanship used by the person before him was not the same as the swordsmanship he had known and come into contact with.
Not like Tang Luo who holds a shield and insists it's swordsmanship.
As a swordsmanship master, Robert could tell, this is genuine swordsmanship, being a court swordsmanship instructor is certainly sufficient.
But the problem is, how to squeeze out that damned mirror master.
"Not bad." After Li Huan finished his performance, Robert said, "I can recommend you to become a court swordsmanship instructor, but how are you going to drive away that mirror master?"
"You investigate first, find out his situation, I'll look for an opportunity." Li Huan said, his eyes gloomy.
"Still need to investigate?" Robert asked.
"You're more suitable." Li Huan stated the reason, then couldn't help but add a jab, "I'm helping you, you're not just going to lie there, are you?"
"Alright, alright." Robert waved his hand, "I'll tell you his information."
"Quickly." Li Huan emphasized.
He needs to quickly know Tang Luo's whereabouts, understand his purpose, so as to make countermeasures.
Originally Li Huan definitely bore a grudge against Tang Luo, but later as some events occurred, he sadly discovered, he seemed to have no way to take revenge anymore.
That Tang Xuanzang entered the martial arts mythos, quickly rose to fame, became a master-level "nurse-mama".
And according to Yunxiao Huan's statement, this person's strength is also strong, advised himself not to think about some nonsense.
Now Li Huan is definitely not what he used to be, his strength has increased by more than just a little bit.
But he is not sure what level Tang Xuanzang is at now, in his heart he regards him as a formidable opponent, without any relaxation of vigilance, no intention of rushing in headlong.
Besides, one who dares to directly say something like "Lonely Nine Swords" exposing his demonic wanderings, is either a madman or possesses strong strength.
According to Li Huan's understanding, that Tang Xuanzang has both.
"I don't know if he's like me, also alone……"
