Eroge: I can Travel To The Ancient World-Chapter 165: Sparring With Cai Yunhai
Jia Hao was sitting in his room was he was writing down something on the paper. Looking at his calligraphy skill, he couldn't help but nod with satisfaction. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
' Not bad. I already got the talent from Lei Qinzhu. However, with my own personal touch, my calligraphy skills improved a lot.'
' Hmm, I should also increase my other skills. Should I go around and kill some more people?'
' Fuck, What the fuck am I thinking?' Jia Hao shook his head. ' I am not a murder maniac.' Jia Hao took a deep breath and scolded himself.
He realized that although he is balancing both his buddhist and mara techniques, both of them are inherently conflicting with each other.
The Six Desires Myriad Thought Art could utilize the desire qi to do some incredible things. However, as a side effect, the user is also prone to easily consumed by those feelings.
Meanwhile, The Golden Arhat Vajra Body Arts strengthens the body and heart. However, as Mara warned, if cultivated completely, one would forsake all desires and achieve enlightenment.
Jia Hao didn't want either of them. There is simply no fun of being a beast with base instinct or an enlightened being with no worldly desires.
' I would rather enjoy the worldly delicacies rather than the blandness of heaven and the cruelty of hell.'
In the middle of the day, Jia Hao sighed as he blew a fan. ' Ugh, This autumn humidity. It's making me feel all sweaty.'
Thankfully, Minmin brought him the meal and he enjoyed it.
" Young Lord, How did you do it?" Minmin couldn't help but ask.
" Do what? The fire in Niu Family?"
" No, Transforming the wine." Minming shook her head. " Why would I ask about the incident of Niu Family when we didn't do anything?"
Looking at her coy smile, Jia Hao couldn't help but chuckle. " Indeed, I don't know about it."
" As for the wine, It's also a secret. Hmm, What do you think?"
" You probably used the spring water, refreshing herbs, and fruits you asked me to purchase." Minmin thought for a moment before speaking.
" However, if you add them directly into the rice wine, it will taste pretty weird. However, the Spring Wine you made is completely different."
" Well, Maybe I am an alchemist?" Jia Hao grinned.
" Maybe you are." Minmin nodded with a serious face. " Because the things you did could be only done with spirit alchemy."
" You want to know the secret?" Jia Hao raised his brows. " If you beg me sweetly, then I might think of it."
" Hmph, No way." Minmin snorted lightly. " I don't want to know anymore. You are still a pervert as before."
" Hey, I am not a pervert." Jia Hao rolled his eyes.
At that moment, Cai Yixue walked into the room and saw the banter between Jia Hao and Minmin.
" Wife, You are back." Jia Hao whimpered. " This insolent servant girl! How dare he raise her voice before me?"
" Hmph, Young Miss, Young Lord is throwing so much tantrum."
" Alright, Both of you calm down." Cai Yixue waved her hands as she sighed. " I got the report of Tianxiang Pavilion's today's profit."
" And? How much is it?" Jia Hao asked with a smile.
" Ten thousand taels of gold."
" What? Ten thousand taels of gold in one day? And despite giving so much free food?" Minmin was shocked.
Because earlier, the store only earned thirty thousand taels of gold per month. However, just in a single day, the new Tianxiang Pavilion earned more than ten thousand taels of gold.
Not to mention, the profit is solely based on the items people ordered after the three free servings of food. If there was no offer…
Just thinking about that, Both Cai Yixue and MInmin's breathing increased.
However, Jia Hao only smiled as he drank tea elegantly. " Don't worry, This is just beginning."
" At this point, money doesn't matter that much. What we need to do is to spread our reputation first."
" And without unique dishes, it won't take long before the Tianxiang Pavilion would earn more than what it's earning right now."
" I already have a plan and you gave me a lot of insight last time." Cai Yixue nodded. " I hope the things go like that."
As they were chatting, suddenly Old Yang knocked on the door from outside.
" Young Lord, Patriarch is looking for you. Please come to the training ground."
" Traning ground?" Jia Hao was surprised. " Very well, Old Yang. Lead the way."
Cai Yixue and Minmin also followed him. As they reached there, they saw Cai Yunhai standing in the middle of the ground, wearing a loose robe.
" You have arrived? It took you long enough." Cai Yunhai snorted. " Go ahead and pick a weapon."
" Why is it, Father in Law?" Jia Hao was curious. " Suddenly calling me here, you want to spar with me?"
" Why are you talking so much?" Cai Yunhai snorted. " Just hurry up and pick a weapon. Today, I will see how much your martial arts has progressed.
" As you say, Father in Law." Jia Hao nodded as he looked around and picked a short sword. Cai Yunhai took a saber and stood before him.
" Are you ready?"
" I am."
" Very well.: Cai Yunhai casually swung his blade. " Block this."
Jia Hao felt like a giant wave of wind coming towards him. Raising his sword, he tried to block Cai Yunhai's attack.
*cLANG!*
Jia Hao took a few steps back as he saw his arms were shaking. He only used his physical strength to block the attack. However, now he felt like his arms would just rip off.
' So, that means his physical strength is more than me. He is an Innate Master after all.'
" Hah, So weak? You can't handle a single wing like that?" Cai Yunhai snorted. " Come at me with all your power!"
Jia Hao calmed his breath as he raised his short sword. Employing the Swift Dagger Arts, his sword slashed at Cai Yunhai.
Cai Yunhai was mildly surprised, but his body was far too nimble, dodging Jia Hao's attack.
Jia Hao tried to skip a step to Cai Yunhai's side and stab his sword. But Cai Yunhai simply used his saber to block the attack, as if he saw through Jia Hao's attack.
" Although your sword is pretty fast, why the hell are you using it as a dagger?" Cai Yunhai looked at Jia Hao.
" Both are fundamentally different. A dager must be swift and unseen, as it's mostly used as a surprise attack. A sword should be straight and unwavering, slicing your enemies apart without any mercy."
Jia Hao was surprised as he understood what Cai Yunhai was implying. " Very well, Father in Law, I shall try something else."
Taking a deep breath, Jia Hao's Sage's Divine Eyes activated.
" Let's have another round."
