Cultivation—Stand above the Heaven Chapter 76

"Duke Xu, it seems the rumors about Yaoting circulating out there just don't tally with how he really is. But do enlighten me, what is going on here?" Wu Danzig turned to Xu Wenchuan, utterly thrilled.

A wry smile emerged on Xu's face, he shook his head, baffled as well. Could it be said Wandong had been keeping his remarkable swordsmanship techniques from his own grandad?

Xu Wenchuan and Wu Danzig were both stunned, not to mention Tang Xinyi, who went slack-jawed straight away. The stab Wandong flung was more than familiar to her, which was exactly the technique she had performed times without number—the Cloud-Penetrating Silver Sparkle. However, despite the thousands of times of performance, she just couldn't for the life of her display it exactly the way Wandong did—he performed the Cloud-Penetrating Silver Sparkle seamlessly at one stretch. What was even harder to come by was that the momentum of his performance was so high-spirited, it looked as if his sword could project straight through the clouds above. She could never get there.

Recalling what Wandong ever said to her, a wave of chills went down her spine. Surely it didn't mean that Wandong just picked up the technique when peeping at her training this morning? But, it was unlikely he could have performed it with flying colors right in the evening within one day. That was…way too elusive.

Hardly had Tang Xinyi gone to the details when Wandong's sword closed in on the chest of Wu Qiujun.

"Nice lad! Seems that I was mistaken!" Wandong's stab struck Wu Qiujun dreadfully dumb. He emitted a queer shout and hastened to punch at Wandong as a conditioned response. The forceful momentum of his palm technique burst out and almost inundated Wandong.

Albeit terribly instantaneous and powerful, Wandong's Cloud-Penetrating Silver Sparkle got broken up by Wu Qiujun 's overwhelming punch, because Wandong's cultivation was not sufficiently solid.

No sooner than Xu Wenchuan felt tempted to protect his grandson, Wandong had changed tacts. A gentle flick of his wrist caused vibration of the blade of his sword, giving off a string of ineffable stridulations here and there, which resembled well as hell the glittering waves on the surface of immense lakes and oceans, rising here and subsiding there, tier upon tier, concealing cold glistens as well as the intention to kill.

"Duke Xu, when did you pass down such an exquisite set of swordsmanship techniques on Yaoting?" Wu Danzig asked. Wu was an expert on both battle formation and swordsmanship, seeing Wandong' systematic and flawless techniques, he couldn' help but shout, " Bravo!"

Truth be told, Xu Wenchuan had never taught anything related to swordsmanship to Xu Yaoting, as the latter would turn him away even if he proposed to. The Cloud-Penetrating Silver Sparkle performed by Wandong was slightly different from the same technique once displayed by Tang Xinyi when Xu Wenchuan attempted to hunt her down. Thinking of this, Xu Wenchuan couldn't but looked at Tang Xinyi instead.

But Tang Xinyi appeared as if her acupoints were sealed, she stood there astonished, motionlessly.

Capturing the sudden change of Wandong's technique, Tang Xinyi could already conclude that what Wandong was displaying right now was exactly the same as hers. But the might of the identical set of swordsmanship techniques was dozens of times amplified by Wandong.

"How could that be?!" Tang Xinyi couldn't help but question the unusual scene so desperately that she appeared dumbstruck.

Duan Lengyan, standing on the other side, also gazed at Wandong's inconceivable performance, startled with a sense uncontainable unbelief conveyed by her facial expression. With no stretch of the imagination could her ever be able to picture the indescribable perfection of Wandong's swordsmanship techniques. Had she been opposite Wandong, she would probably end embarrassingly unaware and panicked, granted that she would not checkmate right away.

Duan Lengyuan felt both shocked and indignant. She thought to herself that she would give a harsh dressing down to all her heelers who collected intelligence about Xu Yaoting. The present Xu Yaoting was, without exaggeration, was poles apart from the description in the intelligence info. If such a capable guy had been viewed as a good-for-nothing, then the whole world would resemble a landfill accordingly.
