Chapter 367 Learning Sword
Jing Ke, who was sparring with Han Shen, glanced at Gongsun Li and his pupils shrank slightly.

"careful!"

Jing Ke swung out his sword without hesitation, trying to block the sword energy.

Han Shen's eyes focused, and even though he had tried his best to retract the sword he had swung, its remaining force was still undiminished.

Jing Ke took Han Shen's sword head-on and his body was covered in blood.

But he didn't care, his eyes were fixed on his sword, he could block the sword energy, hoping that the girl would not be hurt.

Cheng Jiao was the farthest away from the girl, but he had already noticed it.

He walked over slowly, grabbed the sharp sword shot by Jing Ke, and waved his hand to break the sword energy.

"Are you OK?"

Cheng Jiao threw the sword back into Jing Ke's scabbard, causing Han Shen's pupils to shrink. He was so strong.

Be it Cheng Jiao's footwork that seemed to shrink the distance into an inch, or his casual sword swing, none of them could be done without high-level internal skills and mental strength.

Gongsun Li, who was standing behind Cheng Jiao, had her heart beating wildly and she was almost injured.

Who is he?
He seemed to be a young man invited by his grandfather, perhaps the Chang'an Lord of Qin.

I thought he was a weak young man, but I didn't expect him to be so powerful. His swordsmanship is better than those two young men.

"I am fine."

Gongsun Li took a breath and said with lingering fear.

Cheng Jiao looked at the girl and his heart moved. Could this be Li Ji?

If you look closely, they do look a bit alike, but she is still in her teenage years and has not yet fully developed.

But she is also a rare and precious beauty.

Compared with Niang Rong, he has sharp eyebrows and handsome eyes, and has a more refreshing and capable temperament.

Gongsun Li felt a little embarrassed when Cheng Jiao stared at her.

"who are you?"

Cheng Jiao retracted his gaze and said with a smile: "Cheng Jiao, I came from Qin State, passed through Wei State, and went to Zhao State as an envoy."

Gongsun Li was certain in her heart and couldn't help but laugh.

"My name is Gongsun Li. My grandfather said I was as beautiful as Xi Shi, so he gave me the nickname Li Ji."

Niangrong, who was walking over with Mengniang, couldn't help but cover her little face.

It's over, it's too late, the girl is doomed.

Han Shen came over supporting the seriously injured Jing Ke.

"I'm so sorry."

Li Ji thought Han Shen and Jing Ke were from Chengjiao, and said straightforwardly: "No problem, your swordsmanship is very strong, um, a little weaker than his."

Jing Ke smiled bitterly, "He is not a human being, there is no comparison..."

Niang Rong deeply agreed with the first half of Jing Ke's sentence.

Cheng Jiao didn't care. He took out a healing pill and flicked it out with his finger.

The pill turned into powder in mid-air and evenly covered the wound caused by Jing Ke's sword.

There was a gleam of light in Gongsun Li's beautiful eyes, she looked so elegant.

Niang Rong snorted, "Why are you trying to be cool? You're seducing women again, what a lustful man."

Cheng Jiao waved his hand and said, "Han Shen, take Jing Ke down to rest. Don't disturb his injuries, he will recover by tomorrow."

Han Shen supported Jing Ke and left.

Li Ji hesitated and said, "That..."

Cheng Jiao smiled and said, "I will bear all the losses."

Li Ji shook her head repeatedly: "No, I want to learn swordsmanship from you."

Niang Rong said anxiously, "No!"

Gongsun Li's heart skipped a beat: "No...Is it not possible?"

Niang Rong nodded vigorously: "Of course not, his swordsmanship is not... No, I came here first, I am learning his swordsmanship! After I finish learning, I will teach you."

I wanted to say that Cheng Jiao’s swordsmanship was not good, but I almost made a fool of myself, so I quickly changed my words.

Li Ji looked at Niang Rong's hand suspiciously and said, "You have never practiced sword." Niang Rong said confidently, "Get ready to practice!"

Cheng Jiao hugged his chest and watched Niang Rong perform quietly.

Good man, I didn’t even know when I got a new disciple.

Meng Niang couldn't bear it anymore.

It was so embarrassing that he dragged Niangrong back into the house regardless of her resistance.

Cheng Jiao shrugged, "She is a poor student, not as good as you. As for teaching you swordsmanship, I will be leaving in two days, so I can't teach you."

Gongsun Li said disappointedly: "Is that so... Then is it okay for the next two days?"

Cheng Jiao was a little confused when he saw Gongsun Li's distraught look. Is it really that serious?

Or has it been that I have met someone I fall in love with at first sight?

"Okay, you can learn whatever you want while I'm here."

Although his swordsmanship is not as good as the legendary figures, it is more than enough to teach a little girl.

……

Cheng Jiao was just trying to please Li Ji, but who knew that Li Ji actually took it seriously.

He had nothing to do at night, so he simply started teaching Li Ji how to practice sword.

What surprised Cheng Jiao was that Li Ji's swordsmanship was quite advanced and her understanding of swordsmanship was very strong.

The drawback is that his talent for cultivation is mediocre and his internal strength has just reached the innate level.

Of course, compared to the whole world, he can be called a genius.

Niangrong did not listen to Mengniang and go back to the house. Instead, she pulled Mengniang back.

Seeing Cheng Jiao teaching Li Ji swordsmanship in a serious manner and not taking advantage of her or saying anything fancy, she began to doubt her life.

This is not a trick!
Meng Niang felt a little relieved. It seemed that she had won the bet with Niang Rong.

"Niangrong, do you believe it now? Let's go back to the house."

Niang Rong said unwillingly, "Let's wait a little longer. Maybe Cheng Jiao didn't make a move because we are here."

Mengniang yawned. She really didn't understand what Niangrong and Chengjiao were arguing about.

Niang Rong whispered, "Let's go out first and watch secretly."

Meng Niang said casually: "It's useless. The young master can sense the movements within a radius of 100 meters. There is no difference between you being inside the courtyard and outside the courtyard."

Niang Rong froze and forgot about this matter. It would be great if there was something that could observe from hundreds of meters away.

Seeing that Niangrong was a little discouraged, Mengniang said with a smile: "Why do you care about him? Do you still want to marry him?"

Niang Rong's face darkened. "Even if I never get married, I will never fall for him. He is a man who only likes women!"

Meng Niang explained: "Not entirely. He is a celestial being after all. He is also the brother of the King of Qin, Lord Chang'an. He also invented papermaking. He is good to us. If..."

Niang Rong was somewhat absent-minded, and subconsciously asked, "If what?"

Meng Niang shook her head slightly: "Nothing..."

I can't tell Niangrong to kill your father, and then I have to beg Chengjiao to let you go.

Li Ji was sweating profusely from exhaustion, her eyes were determined.

She is not as weak as Lianyi, nor as willful as Niangrong.

She lost her parents at a young age, the country was in turmoil, and she witnessed her grandfather fighting in wars. She knows what is hard-earned.

She was truly lucky to meet a peerless master like Cheng Jiao.

Not to mention that being able to personally teach her swordsmanship is a rare opportunity.

Cheng Jiao put down his sword and said, "Let's stop here for tonight. It's late..."

Li Ji followed Cheng Jiao's gaze and saw many more men in black around the courtyard.

Cheng Jiao chuckled and said, "Haha, I wonder who is this expert who came here to cause trouble."

Lu Feng shouted, "I am Lu Feng from the Yin Family, Cheng Jiao, if you know what's best for you, hand over the Blue Dragon Seven Stars!"

The eyes of the men in black around them immediately focused on Lu Feng.

Good man, do you have to be so direct?
As if you are afraid that others don’t know who you are!
Now that you mention it, we might as well just take off our face coverings!

What are you still lurking about!
