Fan Lingtian was practicing slow Tai Chi, not the kind where the ethereal old n in movies could knock people over in minutes, but simply basic movents to unblock the circulation.
He couldn't help but be a little startled when he heard Xiaofan's request. This kid ca to him out of nowhere for sothing like this.
"You wouldn't be looking for an excuse to intentionally get close to Zuimo, would you?"
Fan Lingtian's suspicion wasn't without reason. This kid had a track record, and who knew what mischievous ideas he was up to now.
The relationship between him and Shen Zuimo was ambiguous, and everyone knew why he kept approaching her again and again. However, at this mont, Xiaofan intended to put his personal feelings aside. If he couldn't ensure his own safety first, what future would there be for personal feelings?
"If I wanted to see her, I wouldn't use such an elaborate excuse. Of course, I won't deny that I've always thought about her," Xiaofan answered sincerely. Yet, after being at Yanhuang Soul for three or four days, he hadn't sought out Shen Zuimo, which clearly showed his purpose in coming here.
He felt the urge to see her every day, but Xiaofan had to restrain himself. He feared he'd be reluctant to leave if he did, and a flood of mories would co to mind.
But now, he suddenly had an idea—to rely on Shen Zuimo's assassination skills to teach everyone the technique of a single deadly strike.
Yes, Xiaofan's sudden thought was exactly this: one-hit kill.
If Li San and the others had already reached a bottleneck in strength and were more powerful than those assassins, then why were they still hesitant when it ca to fighting with their lives?
It was wrong to say that Li San and the others were not willing to risk their lives. The remaining possibility was that the opponents' assassination skills were notably strong, and Li San's own killing techniques were very limited.
Take Li San, for example. His special move was the Swallow's Counterattack, but he couldn't use it right at the start, could he? Also, it consud a considerable amount of Inner Strength, making prolonged combat impossible. Ren Ying's Sobbing Palm was much the sa.
These special moves were reserved for crucial monts to either save one's life or turn the tides from a desperate situation; the usual aggressive attacks, though fierce, couldn't swiftly kill the opponent.
Although Xiaofan could kill an opponent with a toothpick, facing opponents of certain strength, the enemies could easily evade deadly strikes. If in close combat, one could swiftly seize the opponent's head, the battle could be quickly ended, reducing energy expenditure.
Back in the hotel lobby, when Xiaofan first saw Zuimo in action, the shocking scene was etched clearly into his mind. The quick, fierce, precise manner in which she casually dispatched the assassin with a dagger was stunning. Sothing like that could only be achieved through long, grueling training.
If Li San and the others could learn it, it would undoubtedly provide new insights into their attack capabilities.
At this mont, the stunningly beautiful woman was, as always, training rigorously according to her own training plan.
Long-term exercise left no trace of extra fat on her skin. The temperature in the training room was maintained at around twenty-five degrees Celsius, so today Shen Zuimo was wearing just a black camisole for her physical training.
Her flat belly, emphasized by her proud curves, drew the eyes of countless n. On her crystal-clear skin, sweat trickled down as if finding no place to rest.
As usual, whenever Shen Zuimo appeared on the training field, a large number of people gathered. Despite being repeatedly rejected by this ice-cold beauty, they persistently followed, as if feeling it an honor to be in the sa training field with her.
Such attention was sothing Shen Zuimo had long since gotten used to. This made her develop a unique focus on her training, ignoring everything around her.
Still, today the training ground felt peculiar. Unnoticed until it began, Shen Zuimo sensed a pair of fiery eyes on her.
This gaze felt familiar, and she wasn't annoyed by it.
Finally, in the crowd, she found the eyes fixed on her—clear and untainted. When their owner noticed her gaze, he smiled slightly and continued to stand there looking on.
Why was he here again? Why had he co again?
Yes, Xiaofan was there again, but this ti he wouldn't orbit Shen Zuimo like a fly. He didn't interrupt her training because it had been ages since he last watched her quietly like this. Just watching from afar, not disturbing her, admiring her focused expression and those cold, haunting eyes he missed so much.
Stopping her actions, under everyone's gaze, Shen Zuimo walked over to Xiaofan.
This move from Shen Zuimo imdiately caused a buzz among those present, for Yanhuang Soul's most aloof, cold goddess actually approached a man other than Shen Junjie. What was this guy's background?
"Whoa, it's him?" Of course, so hadn't forgotten that he once got full marks at the dodge training center.
"Hi." The tone of greeting was sowhat delighted. No matter how hard he tried to suppress his feelings for her, it's at tis like this when suppression becos entirely impossible.
"You looking for ?" Shen Zuimo asked casually.
"Yeah, a bit of sothing."
"Say it."
"I want to invite you to be a ntor to and my friends, to help enhance our close combat capabilities."
"Your strength is greater than mine, who would believe such an excuse?" Shen Zuimo said, naturally turning to leave. She felt this guy, while sowhat different from before, was still circling around to get close to her.
"No, I need the assassination skills you learned at Red Butterfly. I'm earnestly asking for your help."
"True or not, the training assignnts the organization gives must be completed daily, so I have no ti to be your ntor."
"Grandpa Fan has already agreed."
Upon hearing this, Shen Zuimo's drinking motion halted, she looked at Xiaofan with so curiosity. Although her mind was puzzled, if Fan Lingtian truly consented, there must be a reason.
"Not going..."
And Shen Zuimo's answer was as those nearby predicted, she indeed refused.
"Why? I'm serious..." Xiaofan said, a bit anxious.
"Why should I teach you? What's in it for ? Moreover, such techniques aren't developed in just a day or two, even if you have a strong foundation..."
"Then teach us over the long term, and in return, we can teach you the techniques you desire. Plus, I have special thods to help you strengthen your personal prowess."
