An Unparalleled Master of Martial Arts - Chapter 9

Chapter 9: The Whispering Saber Method

The first move is named the Killing Feather. The practitioner is as swift as a flying wild goose. His opponent will be killed by the unnoticeable wind blade when his attention is attracted by the swift movement.

Lu Yun starts with the practice of the pace. With his hard work and high comprehensibility, in the afternoon, he has become as swift as a bird.

Combined with the use of saber method, he has thoroughly grasped the first move of the method.

Like a bird, he moves swiftly to ascend and descend in the deep bamboo forest. The wind blade he casts can cut off the bamboos ten meters away.

When he has grasped the creative concept of the method, his opponent whose level is higher than him can evade his wind blades only by feeling.

When Lu Yun has completely grasped the first move, it is close to the evening. There remains still some time before the dinner, he puts away his sword and sits down to cultivate his vital energy.

After a while, the warm stream of the Boundless Guide circulates in his body relieving his fatigue.

Because of the improvement of cultivation and the concentration of attention, Lu Yun’s hearing becomes exceptionally good.

First, he hears the chirping birds. Then Lu Yuan’s voice comes to his ears. He is talking to someone. But the other one is not Lu Xin.

“Brother, I am telling the truth. Lu Yun has suddenly improved his cultivation. I am no match for him at all. Moreover, he is ruthless now!” Lu Yuan says.

The other voice says, “No matter how much he has improved in his cultivation, he is still a good-for-nothing. He defeated you days ago because I was not there. I once said, whoever dares to touch you, I will destroy him. I will let Lu Yun kneel in front of you to apologize.”

Lu Yun opens his eyes frowning, “It’s Lu Fan!”

Lu Fan is Lu Yuan’s elder brother, a mid-fifth-level commoner of the Mystery, practices the tyrannical sword method. He became an official member of the family last year and often fulfills tasks out of the town.

As soon as he is back, Lu Yuan asks him to help to fight against Lu Yun for revenge.

Lu Yun stops his energy cultivation and stands up.

Lu Yuan and Lu Fan appear ferociously in front of him.

Lu Fan roars, “Lu Yun, it has been some time since we saw each other last time. It’s said that you’ve improved a lot and intend to defeat us all.”

“Yes.” Lu Yun utters the word coldly.

Lu Fan originally wanted to ridicule Lu Yun. But unexpectedly, the other party answers in this way. He explodes with anger.

Lu Fan sneers, “Today, I am in a good mood, not wanting to smudge my sword with you the dirty good-for-nothing. I will spare you if you give yourself three slaps in the face, kneel down and apologize.”

“I advise you not to ask for that, otherwise it will only be you who is to do so,” Lu Yun says.

“Hey, Lu Yuan, this guy really becomes impudent. See how I am to let him lick your boots even without my sword.” At the words, Lu Fan starts his attack with his famous “Eighteen Fell Touches”, a set of strange combat methods to make the opponent fell to the ground by merely a touch.

Lu Yun is not strong enough to fight back directly, so he evades the attacks by employing the swift paces he learned from the Whispering Saber Method.

In the beginning, Lu Fan doesn’t think high of Lu Yun. In his mind, it is impossible for Lu Yun to escape from his “Eighteen Fell Touches”.

But he couldn’t touch Lu Yun after ten strokes in a row.

This made Lu Fan angry. He accelerates his attacks and becomes more fierce.

But when he wanted to play with Lu Yun before, the moves have been thoroughly understood by Lu Yun. It’s too late for him to think about strengthening the attack now.

Lu Yuan thought that his brother could teach Lu Yun a lesson. But, quite out of their expectation, it is Lu Yun who has the upper hand.

“Lu Yun… Why? He has become so strong!” Lu Yuan says to himself with envy.

Lu Yun evades Lu Fan’s touch with great ease. Lu Fan hastens his attacks but becomes chaotic in the movement. Lu Yun suddenly comes close to Lu Fan at the right moment. Seeing that the flaw of Lu Fan’s method is in the unprotected legs in spite of the unpredictable moves in the hands.

While leaning back to evade Lu Fan’s attack, he stretches his right leg and trips Lu Fan down.

Lu Fan is shameful and angry.

He never expected that he can be defeated by Lu Yun.

Lu Fan draws his sword out of its sheath, “Shit! I am to make you kneel down today!”

“You are not capable enough to do so.” Lu Yun answers coldly with his hand on the scabbard. “Lu Fan, you have no chance to go now!”

“Damned!” Lu Fan stabs his sword directly at Lu Yun, irritated by his words.

The corners of Lu Yun’s mouth raise with a strange smile.
