Martial Arts Escort System: I Got A Maxed Level Divine Technique From The Beginning-Chapter 416 - 206 Jiuying_3

"Teach me?"

Su Mo wanted to tease her instinctively, but just as he was about to speak, he suddenly remembered what Wei Ziyi’s master had said. The teasing words suddenly became difficult to express.

He could only shake his head and say, "To be honest, after the battle in Xuanji Valley, Master Liu thanked me for saving his life, and gifted me the Divine Rainbow Heart Seeking Sword Manual."

"What?"

Wei Ziyi was shocked: "That’s quite generous of Liu Suifeng, the Divine Rainbow Heart Seeking Sword is his renowned skill that made him famous in Jianghu, to think he could gift it away? I have never heard of the sword techniques of Yuliu Manor being taught to outsiders."

"That’s because you haven’t seen much of the world."

Remembering how Wei Ziyi often showed off her knowledge in front of him, Su Mo couldn’t help feeling a bit superior:

"In the past, Yuliu Manor used to openly recruit disciples.

"Sadly, at that time the Divine Rainbow Heart Seeking Sword was not known in Jianghu, resulting in few followers.

"Since then, they ceased taking in disciples, and once Liu Suifeng became famous in Jianghu, hardly anyone dared to seek teachings from him."

"...Really?"

Wei Ziyi’s eyes brightened: "If that’s the case, why don’t you demonstrate the techniques of Divine Rainbow Heart Seeking Sword to my master? I presume, with my master’s martial arts insight, finding its flaws wouldn’t be difficult."

"Miss Wei, be careful with your words."

Su Mo frowned slightly and glanced at Wei Ziyi.

Wei Ziyi was taken aback, realizing her words were indeed inappropriate.

Liu Suifeng had gifted the manual out of gratitude for Su Mo saving his life.

Knowing Liu Suifeng was coming to challenge him, yet showing the techniques to her master, wouldn’t that make Su Mo dishonorable?

She was only thinking about her master’s safety, forgetting the difficulty Su Mo faced, which was truly inappropriate.

Immediately, she bowed earnestly: "I was rash, please don’t take offense, Brother Su."

Yet, she was puzzled, as she usually thought carefully before speaking.

Why did she speak so carelessly in front of Su Mo?

"Forget it."

Su Mo shook his head: "You were just speaking in haste."

"But... since Su, the Chief of the Escort, said my master might not win, I wonder why?"

Wei Ziyi couldn’t help asking: "Could you tell me?"

"No harm in that."

Su Mo began: "Do you know what the essence of Divine Rainbow Heart Seeking Sword is?"

"The essence..."

Wei Ziyi thought for a moment and said: "That day during the major battle in Xuanji Valley, I saw from afar Master Liu’s fight with the Xuehai Leader. I saw the impressive Sword Qi, vast and mighty.

"But if you ask about the essence, it’s like trying to see flowers through the fog, not clear at all."

"If it were so easily perceivable, how could Master Liu use this martial art to roam the Jianghu unchallenged?"

Su Mo gently shook his head, speaking solemnly:

"The essence of Divine Rainbow Heart Seeking Sword lies in the words ’Heart Seeking’.

"The most crucial part of this sword technique is... aiming at the heart, questioning past faults.

"If there are no flaws in one’s mental stage, it naturally flows smoothly.

"On the contrary, if the mental stage is full of flaws, even if the martial arts are flawless, the Sword Intent has already breached its defenses."

"This..."

Wei Ziyi’s eyebrows furrowed deeply: "It sounds like the Divine Rainbow Heart Seeking Sword has reached a profound level."

"Exactly."

Su Mo nodded gently: "Although I have learned the Divine Rainbow Heart Seeking Sword, my proficiency is nowhere near comparable to Master Liu’s.

"Furthermore, if Master Liu has improved on his journey here, who can say to what extent he has reached?"

"I see."

Wei Ziyi nodded: "Thank you, Lord Su, for your frankness."

"There’s also no harm, ’mental stage’ is truly difficult to describe, and if there are defects, it’s hard to know how to amend them."

Su Mo shook his head, then asked about an important matter:

"Where am I staying tonight?"

"Um... let me take you out and ask around."

Wei Ziyi, taking Su Mo, left the courtyard.

Inside Hanxi Building, that woman was still sitting alone.

She quietly looked at a painting on the desk.

She had just drawn it, with only a few strokes of ink, but the figure was already outlined.

A young man.

His long robe, worn loosely, slightly unkempt.

One sleeve rolled up, revealing a robust arm.

The other hand was untying a gourd from his waist, his face full of a bold smile.

But those eyes were particularly expressive.

As if looking at someone outside the painting, seemingly inviting, as if inquiring.

The woman stared blankly at the man in the painting, eyes locked with his.

After a long while, she sighed:

"Carrying burdens..."

"You know about carrying burdens...

"Since you know, why not change?

"Your mind is nimble, truly one of the cleverest in this world.

"If you wished, our endings wouldn’t have been like this today.

"But you... chose to carry burdens."

The woman smiled slightly, yet with a touch of sadness that couldn’t be spoken, only falling into silence:

"Your son is different from you, a kind-hearted child. free𝑤ebnovel.com

"That remark must have been intentionally made for me to hear.

"He must be afraid of me dying at the hands of Liu Suifeng...

"The Divine Rainbow Heart Seeking Sword, focusing on mental state?

"My mental state has long been shattered.

"That day I sneaked into Ziyang Escort Agency, intending to kill that boy, my mental stage was already clouded.

"Since your tragic death in Jianghu, and disappearance thereafter, every memory is agonizing.

"Still alive, yet for what?

"You and your wife eventually became part of the underworld...

"Leaving those you carry burdens for, struggling in this mortal world for your sake...

"Su Tianyang, your heart is truly ruthless!"

She pointed with her hand, suddenly exerting force, wanting to destroy the drawing.

But as she controlled her Inner Strength, she ultimately couldn’t bear to do so, and dispersed her Inner Strength.

With a soft sigh, she dipped her brush in ink and added the date next to the painting.

Finally, she added a single word: Jiuying.

After the last stroke, she just quietly watched.

It was as if that spirited man from years past had once again appeared before her.

As time passed, the entire Hanxi Building, along with the setting sun, and the woman, entered into silence.
