Lin Mansion In the study room, the charcoal fire was blazing, but it could not dispel the sudden chill.
Lin Yaotian sat at the desk, unconsciously stroking a warm jade with his fingertips. Listening to the hasty report from the butler Lin Fu, his face darkened visibly.
"What did you say? Huang Kui missed? Fang Han is already Ninth Grade Inner Qi Realm?!"
He suddenly raised his head, his eyes bursting with unbelievable sharp light, and his knuckles turned slightly white from the exertion.
Fang Han How old is that kid? He has actually broken through the natural chasm that trapped countless warriors to death?
This talent is simply appalling!
"Absolutely true."
Lin Fu bowed lower, his voice filled with uncontrollable panic.
"Our people have seen with their own eyes that the energy displayed during the fight is definitely not comparable to that of the Bone Refining Realm."
"Where is Huang Kui now?"
Lin Yaotian leaned forward and his voice suddenly became very low, with a trace of imperceptible tension.
If Huang Kui is captured alive... it is likely that the person behind the scenes is Lin Family.
Lin Fu lowered his head. "His body was found in a dark alley... There were injuries on his body but they were not fatal. He should have committed suicide by taking poison."
Lin Yaotian Hearing this, his tense shoulders relaxed almost unnoticeably, and then a deeper haze flashed across his eyes.
Commit suicide by taking poison?
Huang Kui has been a Ninth Grade Inner Qi Realm warrior for many years and was able to force him to be unable to escape and choose to commit suicide by taking poison. Fang Clan That kid must be protected secretly by masters who are at least Grade Eight level.
There are no more than five such warriors among the Fang Clan. Fang Lingyuan That old fox is actually willing to send a warrior of this level to serve as Guard.
His fingertips tapped heavily on the smooth rosewood surface, making a dull "click" sound.
"Cut all the threads related to Huang Kui. No trace of it can be implicated in the Lin Family. Go and do it immediately."
"Yes, sir."
Lin Fu fully understood the importance of this matter, solemnly obeyed the order, turned around and left quickly.
Just at this moment, there was a knock on the study door, and a confidant Servant stumbled in without being summoned, his face turned pale:
"Clan Head! It's not good! Master Ao... he was injured in an attack!"
"What?" Lin Yaotian's pupils shrank suddenly and he stood up suddenly, "What's going on? How are the injuries?"
"On the way back home just now, I was attacked by someone. The opponent's attack was very serious. Master Ao's internal organs were shocked and his right arm was fractured. I'm afraid... I'm afraid he will have to recover for several months..."
Servant's voice trembled.
Lin Yaotian's heart was shocked, this is definitely Fang Clan's revenge!
Fang Clan's revenge came so quickly? Have they confirmed that it was Lin Family?
As soon as this idea came up, another Servant arrived in a hurry.
"Clan Head, Yue Clan Yue Lingtian, He Clan He Qingyan, Sun Clan Sun Qing... were attacked almost at the same time, but they were not injured!"
"What a cruel method!"
Lin Yaotian was shocked at first, and then turned livid.
This is not revenge against the Lin Family family, but an indiscriminate warning.
Fang Lingyuan is telling Liangshui City all the forces in the most direct and cruel way.
Fang Han If something unexpected happens, he will let all the best next generations from each family be buried with him!
A chill ran down Lin Yaotian's spine, and he felt an unprecedented fear of Fang Lingyuan's determination and cruelty.
His heart, which was slightly relieved because of Huang Kui's suicide, was now tightly tied by invisible ropes.
He waved his hand and said to Lin Fu in a deep voice.
"... The things I just told you should be done immediately. Then hire the best pharmacist. No matter the cost, we must make Aoer recover as soon as possible."
"Yes." Lin Fu and the two Servant agreed in a low voice, retreated quietly, and gently closed the door.
Silence returned to the study room, with only the faint crackling sound of the occasional charcoal fire. Lin Yaotian sat alone in the chair, looking deeply into the dark night outside the window, and did not move for a long time.
After being assassinated, Fang Han lived in seclusion and never left the area of the Fang Mansion.
Inner Hall was still closed due to the Chinese New Year holiday, so he placed his training place in the Rain-Listening Pavilion.
The new courtyard given by Lineage is quite spacious, with bluestone paving and several cold-resistant pines and cypresses dotted in the corners, which is enough for him to move around and practice martial arts.
As for the practice of Internal Qi, it can be placed in the bedroom.
In the bedroom, Fang Han finished training <Pure Origin Technique>.
He walked out of the bedroom and came to the courtyard.
Taking a deep breath of the cool air, his eyes focused and fell on the Azure Edge Sword in his hand.
"Shua--"
Wherever the sword light rises, the sound of wind suddenly rises.
The Greater Accomplishment level <Gentle Wind Sword Art> was deployed, Sword Intent was swift and fierce, like streaks of cyan lightning tearing through the cold wind, flashing vertically and horizontally in the courtyard, causing fallen leaves to swirl and dance.
"The difficulty level has increased a lot!"
Fang Han frowned slightly.
He can clearly feel that the difficulty of the training from <Gentle Wind Sword Art>Greater Accomplishment to the Perfection Realm has obviously been greatly improved compared to the previous training.
Even with the solid foundation laid by Eightfold Sword Art Talent Amplification and Perfection Realm Breeze Sword Art, it will probably take at least several months of hard work to break through to the Perfection Realm.
"It's because this is a process of qualitative change!"
According to the cheat book, the reason why this happens is because there is a qualitative transformation from Greater Accomplishment to the Perfection Realm.
Once you Perfection Realm, you can control the wind for the first time, and your sword moves will carry the power of the wind, and their power will skyrocket.
Corresponding to the surge in power, the difficulty also skyrockets.
After practicing the sword for more than an hour and sweating profusely, Fang Han just put away his sword and stood up.
His gaze swept over the sword, his eyes calm and not at all discouraged.
The path of martial arts is like this. The higher the level, the more difficult it is to practice.
After adjusting his breath for a while, he began to practice <Startling Swan Step>.
Different from the sluggish feeling that <Gentle Wind Sword Art> feels when practicing now, when practicing this step, a smooth feeling emerges spontaneously.
With eight times the blessing of Footwork Talent, and a solid foundation laid by the Perfection Realm level <Gale Step>, plus the fact that he has only reached Beginner stage at present, which is a lower level, his understanding of this inferior sect Body Movement was astonishingly fast.
With a tap of the toes, the figure rises erratically, like a sudden appearance of a giant, leaving behind a series of afterimages that are difficult to capture in a small area.
With every twist and turn, every move, new insights emerge from the bottom of my heart, and my grasp of Internal Qi's mobilization and timing becomes more and more subtle.
He had a clear premonition that <Startling Swan Step>'s breakthrough was close at hand.
A few days later in the afternoon, Fang Han was practicing <Startling Swan Step> with great concentration in the courtyard. As his body shape changed, he suddenly felt blessed in his soul.
The Internal Qi in the body suddenly rushed into the feet in a more mysterious route. An invisible force seemed to be generated under the feet, the speed suddenly increased, the direction became more bizarre and unpredictable, and the afterimage left behind actually solidified for a moment before slowly dissipating.
"<Startling Swan Step> Step into Minor Success Stage!"
Fang Han stopped and felt the significant improvement of Body Movement.
Minor Accomplishment's inferior product <Startling Swan Step> is no less agile and flexible than Perfection Realm's Gale Step.
Since then, this footwork can completely replace <Gale Step> in combat.
"The next improvement will surpass Perfection Realm Gale Step!"
Fang Han is looking forward to it.
When Startling Swan Step is promoted to the next level, the speed and cunning will surely reach a higher level, surpassing Perfection Realm Gale Step.
By then, this footwork will greatly increase his strength and become an important trump card for him.
