"Do you know any sword techniques?"
"Sword techniques?"
"Things like the Dugu Nine Swords, Sacred Spirit Sword Technique, Flying Immortal Beyond the Heavens, Six Meridian Divine Sword—moves with fixed sword manuals."
"I learned a few occasionally before. They didn't feel particularly useful, though. But I've never heard of the ones you mentioned, Luo Chuan. Why are you suddenly asking about this?"
Yao Ziyan looked at Luo Chuan somewhat strangely, not understanding why he had brought up this topic. She still remembered his lectures at Lingyun Academy clearly.
The sharp sword had no intent, the Soft Sword had no constancy, the Heavy Sword had no edge, the Wooden Sword had no equal, and without a sword, there were no moves. There was also that saying: "All martial arts under heaven, nothing is indestructible; only speed cannot be broken."
"I don't know any sword techniques," Luo Chuan said honestly.
"How could that be?" Yao Ziyan did not believe him. She felt that Luo Chuan was fooling her again. After all, this was hardly the first or second time.
"Look at my pure, innocent eyes. Do I look like I'm lying to you?" Luo Chuan pointed at his eyes and blinked twice.
Yao Ziyan studied him seriously, then nodded with certainty. "You do."
After a slight pause, she added, "And just now, you didn't only touch my leg. You touched my foot too."
"...Then can I touch it two more times?"
"No!" Yao Ziyan covered her skirt, as wary as a cat brought into unfamiliar surroundings, ready to bristle at the slightest provocation.
Luo Chuan was merely teasing Yao Ziyan and did not do anything else.
Once Yao Ziyan realized this, she relaxed slightly, though she was also curious. "Why don't you know them? You explained them so well before..."
