Ye Jingtang naturally understood the difference in speed between using his left hand to draw his saber on the left side and using his left hand to draw it from the right.

If he encountered the Eight-Steps Frenzied Blade with this starting stance, at the same level, he would be beheaded on the spot.

Ye Jingtang explained, “Do you see this step? When encountering rhe Eight-Steps Frenzied Blade, take one step back, and when encountering other saber techniques, take one step forward. This is the way the Dragon Slaying Decree breaks the Eight-Steps Frenzied Blade. Moreover, this left-hand draw and right-hand push can block the Eight-Steps Frenzied Blade's starting stance. If the first move of the Eight-Steps Frenzied Blade can't shake the opponent, it can't achieve the interconnecting effect.”

The empress carefully visualized it in her mind and found that this was really the case. She thought for a moment and said, “There's only one move, and it's considered defensive. Even if you can block the start of the Dragon Slaying Decree, if you fail to defeat the opponent with the saber push, by the rime you can attack a second time, the Dragon Slaying Decree has already started to turn. You won't be able to block ir at all, not to mention rhe Eight-Steps Frenzied Blade, which can cur you into three pieces. What will you do?”

Ye Jingtang maintained the posture of stepping forward and pushing the saber. After thinking seriously for a moment, he placed his left foot behind to support his body and his right foot in front.

The empress frowned slightly. “You're not as stable as before.

“You don't understand.” Ye Jingtang drew his saber with his left hand and pushed it with his right. “After blocking the Dragon Slaying Decree, the opponent will inevitably slide to the right. It will be difficult to restrain the force of the heavy saber, and it can't slide past the tip of my saber, so the opponent can only forcefully press the blade and push me away. The position where he is pressing down will definitely be at the tip of the saber. I only need to borrow his strength to rotate my body…”

Bam!

There was a loud explosion outside the fence!

Ye Jingtang held his saber with both hands and switched to his right leg to support his weight. He followed the movements of the saber and rotated his body. His left leg behind him followed with a powerful whip kick. “If you use your right leg to kick, you will kick the other party's blade, and you won't be able to stand on your left leg. If you use your left leg to kick, it won't be the same. If the opponent's reaction is fast, you will kick his elbow, and the inertia of the heavy saber will make it difficult for him to stand steadily. If the opponent's reaction is slow, you will kick his temple directly, and he will probably die on the spot.”

The empress said, “You're studying saber techniques. Why are you using your legs?”

Ye Jingtang's eyes were full of helplessness. “You're just splitting hairs now. Who said that saber users can t use their legs to kick people when sparring?”

The empress just said it casually. After some thought, she said, “Your saber technique can only break rhe Dragon Slaying Decree. When you encounter the Eight-Steps Frenzied Blade, the opponent will retract his saber too quickly. If you dare to retract your saber and kick, you'll die on the spot.”

Ye Jingtang thought about it and agreed. His saber technique could only deal with heavy sabers, it was inferior to the Eight-Steps Frenzied Blade when facing light-weight sabers. It was almost impossible for him to reach the pinnacle of the saber world with this technique.

Ye Jingtang pondered for a moment. “I've only thought of this for the time being. If it really doesn't work, I will use the Eight-Steps Frenzied Blade to fight head-on. The saber in my right hand will definitely be stronger than the saber in my left hand.”

The empress was slightly stunned. “The first move of the Eight-Steps Frenzied Blade is left-handed. If you draw your saber with your right hand, how do you follow up?”

Just reverse the qi circulation method and practice it in reverse. Originally, the Eight-Steps Frenzied Blade is weak at the first slash and strong at the second and third. Conversely, it will be strong at the first slash and weak at the second and third. The fourth slash uses both hands, so there's no difference.”

The empress nodded, jumped down from the fence, and extended her hand.

“Give me the saber.”

Seeing that Miss Yuhu was very familiar with saber techniques, Ye Jingtang threw the Hornless Dragon Saber to her. He took a short wooden stick from the stable and assumed a stance in front of her. “Let's attack at the same time. You can feel it.”

The empress hung the saber on the right side of her belt and stood ten feet away. With her charming temperament, coupled with her clothes and the saber, she looked more like someone from Jianghu than Ye Jingtang.

Ye Jingtang hung the wooden stick on his back symbolically. “Use both hands. If the Dragon Slaying Decree's reaction is slow, draw the saber with your right hand and execute the first move of the Eight-Steps Frenzied Blade. If the opponent attacks at the same time, put your right foot in front and draw the saber with your left hand…”

I know.”

Alright. Get ready. One, two, three!

Clang!

A cold light flashed outside the stable.

The empress's red skirt fluttered as she moved forward. She drew the saber halfway with her left hand, held the sheath with her right hand, and pressed the back of the saber. Her right foot landed in front of Ye Jingtang.

Ye Jingtang stepped back with his left foot, bent his back, and sprung the wooden stick on his back. Then he held the stick with both hands and slashed down.

Clang!

The empress, holding the hilt of the saber in her left hand and pressing the back of the saber with her right hand, blocked the wooden stick just right. When rhe wooden stick pressed down and slid to the right, she followed the force to rotate, raised her left leg, and lashed out a powerful whip kick at Ye Jingtang's face.

Bam!

Ye Jingtang didn't expect Miss Yuhu, who didn't seem to take the spar seriously, to really kick him!

He had only practiced the first move of the Dragon Slaying Decree and had yet to figure out how he could withstand the move he had just studied.

Seeing Miss Yuhu's sharp eyes and merciless whip kick sweeping toward him, Ye Jingtang could only forget that he was holding a heavy saber' in his hand and duck down to avoid the whip kick.

Swoosh!

The soft red skirt swept past his face.

At a glance, he could see that under rhe skirt was a straight and slender right leg that was like a white jade pillar. It was plump and fair without any flaws. There were no tights on her legs. It was just a clean white leg wearing a red palace shoe. He looked up…

The sun was shining brightly outside, so the light under the skirt was quite good…

Although she wasn't wearing tights, there was clearly a red cloth between her legs.

But to put it bluntly, there was too much exposed. The cloth was at most three fingers wide…

Whoosh!

Before Ye Jingtang could take a closer look, the red skirt suddenly came down and blocked his vision.

Then her left leg lowered onto his shoulder, and the soft skirt slid down his cheek. He saw Miss Yuhu's face. She was performing a split and pressing her leg down on his shoulder.

Ye Jingtang turned his head and looked at the fair calf and red palace shoe on the side of his face. He was slightly dissatisfied. “Miss Yuhu, why are you so impolite? We re just practicing moves. Why did you really kick?”

The empress's original intention was to stop her leg next to Ye Jingtang's ear. She didn't expect this silly boy to hide so quickly and directly crawl under her skirt. She pressed Ye Jingtang's shoulder with her left leg and raised the saber in her hand. “Did you see anything?”

Ye Jingtang felt that he had heard these words before. He said solemnly, “You pressed down your skirt so fast. What could I see? You're just looking for trouble with me. It's because you didn't follow martial ethics. I took refuge in an emergency. It's a normal reaction.”

After the empress confirmed that her brother-in-law was righteous and didn't have any abnormalities, she retracted her leg.

offended you.”

I didn't control my strength and

“It's fine. It's normal to make mistakes when sparring. In the future, when you spar with others, remember to wear martial arts clothes. Wearing a skirt and using whip kicks, it's easy to injure the enemy by a hundred and injure yourself by a hundred thousand.”

The empress patted her skirt. “I'm wearing pants. They're just short. It's hot in summer, so it's cooler to wear them like this.”

Are you wearing them?Ye Jingtang felt that this palace maid liked to look strong and dignified, but he couldn't lift her skirt to verify it. He took the saber. “Miss, do you think this saber technique is feasible?”

The empress deliberated for a moment. “The Eight-Steps Frenzied Blade is a nearly perfect saber technique. It just loses to the Dragon Slaying Decree. In order to break the Dragon Slaying Decree, you're giving up the greatest advantage of the Eight-Steps Frenzied Blade. It's putting rhe cart before the horse. In my opinion, you have to continue polishing it. If you find another path to protect the essence of the Eight-Steps Frenzied Blade and prevent the Dragon Slaying Decree from starting, this saber technique will be invincible in the world.”

After practicing it, Ye Jingtang also discovered many problems. He nodded and said, “That's true. You seem to know a lot about saber techniques.”

Her Majesty likes martial arts. I've heard and seen a lot, so I naturally know a little. If you succeed in your saber technique, it's enough to leave its name in history. What are you going to call this saber technique?”

Ye Jingtang thought for a moment. “White Cut Chicken!”

Chirp?” The bird spread its wings. It s not over for me, is it?

The empress seemed to understand the meaning of 'White Cut Chicken'. She smiled and pondered for a moment. “I heard from Her Majesty that you went to the Roaring Dragon Pond today. That place is very beneficial to martial artists. Do you want me to put in a good word for you and let you stay in the Roaring Dragon Pond for a few more days?”

Ye Jingtang just didn't want to trouble Dumdum anymore. How could he not want to stay in the Roaring Dragon Pond? Fie was slightly surprised to hear this. That's where Fler Majesty sleeps. Is this possible?”

The empress nodded. “Sure. How are you going to thank me, Young Master Ye?

Thank you?

1 helped you fish out the Jade pendant, and now I still owe Dumdum a huge debt. You still have the cheek to ask me to thank you…

Seeing that Miss Yuhu was so thick-skinned, Ye Jingtang thought carefully. “I have a way to let you leave the palace and regain your freedom.”

The empress originally wanted to ask for poetry, bur when she heard this, she asked, “1 am Her Majesty's most pampered palace maid. What method do you have to let Her Majesty part with me?”

Pampered?Ye Jingtang felt that this word was wrong and leaned closer. “Miss Yuhu, you and Her Majesty… that…”

Scissoring,

The empress understood what Ye Jingtang meant and nodded. “Yes, I sleep on the dragon bed every day.”

I”

Ye Jingtang was rather surprised, but looking at Miss Yuhu's gorgeous appearance that suppressed Yun'an, he felt that it wasn't impossible.

No wonder she isn't wearing pants… Ye Jingtang suppressed the strange look in his eyes and asked curiously, “Miss Yuhu, you like women too?”

The empress said casually, “I am a palace maid. Can 1 make the decision for such a matter?”

So, she doesn't like women? Ye Jingtang sighed secretly. Fie had mixed feelings and felt that this girl was pitiful. Just as he was about to say something, he looked at Miss Yuhu's bun.

The empress was only wearing red clothes and no jewelry. Her long black hair was pulled back and tied up with a strip of red cloth, making her look spotless.

But like this, other colors were very eye-catching. Under the sunlight, Ye Jingtang could clearly see a white strand hidden in between her black hair. It was not conspicuous, but it was extremely dazzling when he noticed it. “Miss Yuhu, why do you have white hair?”

The empress touched her hair and replied casually, “From worry. Young Master Ye, go back early. If palace servants come over and see you, Fler Majesty will be jealous, and you will lose your head.”

Only then did Ye Jingtang realize that he was chatting with the empress's concubine. He immediately raised his hand and bowed, preparing to leave.

The empress helped Ye Jingtang pick up the book and painting scroll at the edge of the carriage. Just as she was about to hand them over, she suddenly realized that Liren seemed to have read this book with a solemn frame.

She casually flipped it open…

Her face was stupefied.

The empress instantly stopped. Before she could take a closer look, a large hand pressed on the illustration.

She looked up. The cold and extraordinary Young Master Ye maintained a gentle and refined expression as he took the book and painting scroll. “I'll take my leave first. Let's meet again if fate allows.”

Then he carried the bird on his shoulder and left leisurely.

The empress's eyes were a little strange. It wasn't until Ye Jingtang left that she sighed.. At least he has some conscience and didn't push the blame onto Liren…
