Chapter 52: Chapter 52 Zhao Family Six Harmonies Saber!
In the courtyard.
Chen Yuan and Zhao Nanshan sat opposite each other, the atmosphere sowhat solemn. Chen Yuan remained silent, waiting for Zhao Nanshan to speak:
“The saber technique passed down by our Zhao family is known as the Six Harmonies Saber. It’s a fierce technique that once made quite a na for itself, but unfortunately, I have been incapable of further developing the reputation of the Zhao family’s Six Harmonies Saber…”
Chen Yuan, listening to Zhao Nanshan’s sighs, remained silent, quietly listening to the conditions he was about to propose. If they were too difficult, Chen Yuan would turn around and leave, without a second thought.
“You may learn our Zhao family’s Six Harmonies Saber, but… you must agree to two conditions from . First, you need to be the backbone for Sanhe Boxing Club. In a few days, so other martial arts halls are looking to expel Sanhe Boxing Club, and you must stand up for the club.”
Zhao Nanshan held up two fingers.
...
“Fine, what’s the second condition?”
If it was just about dealing with a few other martial arts halls, that wouldn’t be much of an issue for Chen Yuan.
“Second…” Zhao Nanshan took a deep breath before continuing,
“I originally thought of asking you to exchange it for the Spirit dicine Qing Jade Disconnecting Integrating Paste, but you certainly wouldn’t agree, so instead, help kill soone.”
“Kill who?”
This Qing Jade Disconnecting Integrating Paste that he had never even heard of was naturally out of the question for him to exchange, but killing soone—if the person was not too powerful—might be tried.
“Nanling Prefecture, Sect Leader of Dragon Tiger Sect, Xu Lingtian!”
Hate flashed through Zhao Nanshan’s eyes.
“What’s his strength?”
In Chen Yuan’s heart, it seed clear. Perhaps it was this Xu Lingtian who had crippled Zhao Nanshan, which explained his deep hatred.
“If nothing unexpected has occurred, he should now be at the peak of Gang Condensation Realm.”
“I will take my leave then!”
Chen Yuan bowed and was about to leave.
What a joke, with his own inferior constitution, a single finger from that man could kill him. For a saber technique whose power he was unaware of, it wasn’t worth it.
“The youths of today are too hasty, I never said you had to kill him now…” Zhao Nanshan glanced at Chen Yuan.
“Then what do you an?”
“Wait until you are capable in the future before you act. As for the saber technique, I can teach it to you in advance,” Zhao Nanshan spoke softly.
“There aren’t any constraints, right?” Chen Yuan suspiciously eyed the elder before him.
“If I constrained you, would you definitely not break your promise?”
Zhao Nanshan stared at Chen Yuan.
Chen Yuan shook his head and said:
“I am always true to my word.”
“Very well, old man will trust you this once, wait here…” Zhao Nanshan stood up and walked towards a room. Before long, he returned with a thin booklet in his hand and laid it before Chen Yuan.
“This is our Zhao family’s Six Harmonies Saber, I hope you can make a na for yourself with this technique in Jianghu soday.”
Chen Yuan narrowed his eyes, picked up the yellowed booklet, and carefully flipped through it. It was filled with annotations, evidently written in recent years.
With this thing, it could save Chen Yuan quite a bit of trouble.
Afterwards, Chen Yuan assud a stance in the backyard. Under Zhao Nanshan’s guidance, he looked quite adept, even causing Zhao Nanshan to exclaim that Chen Yuan was exceptionally gifted in saber skills.
Additionally, his fundantals were solid; each stroke of the saber was fierce and forceful.
Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to advance so quickly.
After a long while, Chen Yuan sheathed his saber, letting out a breath.
“You are quite talented; it’s just a pity that you are older, those prestigious sects won’t accept you…” Zhao Nanshan seed sowhat regretful.
“The strongest force under the heavens is the Imperial Court!”
Chen Yuan said softly.
Zhao Nanshan shook his head:
“The court is indeed powerful, but how many people does it have? To get support, one must climb to an extrely high level to wield real power.”
Chen Yuan chuckled lightly and stopped discussing the topic, only saying:
“In three days, when those from the Martial Arts Hall co knocking, I will be there.”
“I naturally trust the words of Officer Chen,” said the old man.
Chen Yuan nodded and turned to leave. As he was stepping out of the door, he suddenly turned and asked:
“Elder Zhao, how many people have you transmitted this Six Harmonies Saber technique to?”
Having obtained this saber technique so easily, Chen Yuan couldn’t help but suspect that he might just be one of several selected, and not the only person to have learned this technique.
Zhao Nanshan’s expression remained unchanged:
“Do you think my Zhao family’s Six Harmonies Saber is as common as cabbage on the streets?”
Chen Yuan said nothing more, rely smiled, and turned to leave.
Once Chen Yuan’s figure had completely disappeared, Zhao Nanshan’s smile vanished. He strode firmly to the bed, lifted a wooden plank, and revealed underneath it five yellowed booklets identical to the Sword Manual Chen Yuan had taken.
“The fourth one, with so many people, there’s bound to be soone who can take revenge for ,” Zhao Nanshan said with a shake of his head and a smile.
He actually harbored a bit of hope for this Chen Yuan, for no other reason than his solid foundation, strong physique, and decent talent, making him likely to reach the Gang Condensation Realm or even higher realms.
Actually, when Chen Yuan had asked to learn the Six Harmonies Saber, Zhao Nanshan had thought of extorting him, but after so thought, he decided against it, strangely feeling a hint of killing aura from Chen Yuan.
He even guessed that if he hadn’t offered the sword manual, Chen Yuan might have taken it by force.
…
By the ti he left the Sanhe Boxing Club, it was already around four in the afternoon, and Chen Yuan felt quite hungry since Zhao Nanshan had him practicing saber techniques without any break.
This ti had gone very smoothly, and the Six Harmonies Saber was indeed a level above the saber techniques at the County Governnt.
And the condition promised to Zhao Nanshan—to first handle the oppression from the other martial arts halls—was not a big deal for an officer.
As for the second condition, there was no hurry to act until he had enough strength, since there were no constraints binding him.
“Brother Yuan.”
Wang Ping, who had been waiting by the door, imdiately greeted Chen Yuan as he erged.
“Let’s go eat.”
Seeing Wang Ping’s manner, it was clear he had been waiting there all along. Chen Yuan waved broadly, ready to eat.
On the way, Wang Ping didn’t ask anything about what had happened inside the Sanhe Boxing Club, displaying good tact. Chen Yuan planned to properly ntor him and let him choose any martial arts from the County Governnt.
“This market is really bustling.”
Wang Ping looked at the bustling crowd, chuckled lightly, and his eyes sparkled whenever he spotted a young woman, closely observing her two strengths and one weakness.
Chen Yuan glanced at him, noticing Wang Ping had already revealed quite a bit.
“With the market only four tis a month, how could it not be lively…” Chen Yuan laughed.
In the distance, Liu Ruoqing in a long dress moved through the crowd, causing the young man following behind to feel sowhat helpless, regretting bringing her along as she was proving to be quite a handful.
“Big brother, if you really can’t keep up with , you’ll have to promise to let enjoy a few days here in Ping’an County. Otherwise, you might as well go back first…”
Liu Ruoqing hadn’t finished her sentence when she suddenly stepped on a stone, slipped, and with a cry of alarm, she plunged towards Chen Yuan, who was walking by.
