C3 He Shocked Everyone
Liu Xiu's expression didn't change. He just stood there without moving.
This scene made everyone in Jing Prefecture even more nervous.
Liu Cong had a cold smile on his face. He said with disdain, "He clearly doesn't know anything, but he wants to challenge us by force. Humph, in order to show his face in front of father, he is scared silly now. Shame!"
Liu Biao also had a look of anger on his face and was not happy.
Huang Zhong and Wenn Pinn were masters of martial arts. Their martial arts skills were superb and their horizons were extraordinary. When they saw Liu Xiu's condition, their eyes sparkled. In their eyes, Liu Xiu was not scared silly by Sun Ren. Instead, he was calm. The huge confidence in his eyes and his calm posture made him look like a leopard waiting for an opportunity.
The tip of the sword was less than a foot away from Liu Xiu.
Suddenly, the sword in Liu Xiu's hand moved.
The sword was flat and slightly higher than Sun Ren's sword. It was ordinary and there was nothing special about it.
Sun Ren had a feeling of danger in his heart, but when he saw Liu Xiu's sword, he felt as if he was not a person who had learned how to use a sword. He immediately felt relieved. He exerted force on the sword in his hand once again and stabbed it towards Liu Xiu's chest.
Suddenly, Sun Ren's eyes turned serious.
Wang Yan tightly gripped the hilt of his sword, fiercely shaking it.
As his strength reached the tip of the sword, the thin tip of his sword tilted upwards like a fish swinging its tail.
In the blink of an eye, the tip of his sword flicked downwards.
Sun Ren did not understand what it meant, but he did not care in his heart. Because his sword was six inches away from Liu Xiu's chest.
Slap!
A crisp sound was heard. The sword at the tip of the sword hit Sun Ren's wrist.
This force was not heavy, but the moment it hit Sun Ren's wrist, Sun Ren felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His wrist was numb and powerless, and the sword in his hand fell with a clang.
Sun Ren's attack had completely disappeared.
Liu Xiu took a step back and said in a neither servile nor overbearing manner, "Thank you!"
Sun Ren stood still in a daze. After a long while, he said, "Impossible. How can I possibly fail?" Looking at Liu Xiu, Sun Ren asked loudly, "How could I fail?" Did you cast a spell?
"If you win, you win fair and square. Now that you lose, it means that the Third Young Master used a demonic technique. What kind of logic is this? " As a martial artist, you don't even have the energy to admit defeat? "
Huang Zhong's eyes were sharp. Boundless killing intent surged towards Sun Ren from all directions.
When Sun Ren encountered this killing intent, his heart trembled with fear and shock.
"Huang Hansheng, what's the point of bullying a kid?" Another warrior standing behind Looh Su stepped forward and stood in front of Sun Ren. Huang Zhong's killing intent disappeared completely.
Huang Zhong snorted and stopped interfering.
Huang Zhong had seen through Sun Ren and Liu Xiu's fight just now.
Liu Xiu's grasp of the sword technique could be said to have reached the acme of perfection. With a single thrust of his sword, he had found another way and easily defeated Sun Ren.
Sun Ren asked again, "Liu Xiu, do you think you were playing a trick just now?"
Liu Xiu's eyes were incomparably sharp, and he said, "Playing tricks? It was a joke! Your sword only has its shape, not its spirit. Do you really think you can't afford it?"
"I've been practicing sword skills since I was young," Sun Ren said in a deep voice. "Three volts in summer and nine volts in winter. I've been practicing sword skills for a long time. You mean my sword is just a show? "
Raging flames of anger rose from the bottom of Sun Ren's heart.
He had spent more than ten years, but he had been denied with just a few words. He was not happy.
Liu Xiu said, "Actually, practicing the sword requires talent as well."
"Firstly, your sword technique seems to be filled with killing intent, but you have never been on the battlefield. Furthermore, your sword aura is more feminine, and it is difficult for you to have true boundless killing intent. " As the saying goes, the heavens give rise to killing intent, the stars move and the night shift; the earth gives rise to killing intent, the dragons and snakes rise to the land; the man gives rise to killing intent, and the heavens and the earth repeat itself. When a true sword technique is used, the killing intent permeating the air is enough to cause the heavens and the earth to repeat itself. "
"Secondly, your sword technique appears to be flexible and ever-changing on the surface, but in reality, it lacks spirituality. The true coincidence is that it is as great as it is clumsy. It is not that you are jumping around with your sword in hand, causing others to laugh. " That is a great jumping technique, not a superior sword technique. "
Thirdly, if you do not use your sword, it will be done. If you move, it will be like thunder. The surface of your sword is as fast as lightning, but there's nothing special about it. "When a true killing sword is used, it's like light and lightning, and its speed is difficult to measure."
"Fourth, you seem to be calm and steady, yet you're not calm enough. If you're slightly provoked, then your sword moves will become extremely chaotic, and you won't be able to remain calm any longer. "
Liu Xiu waved his sleeves and said, Your sword is still too far away. If Jiangdong sends out warriors like you, they will try to provoke Jing Prefecture. That would be throwing an egg at a rock and asking for trouble. Even if there were ten more people like you, I would still defeat them easily. "Today's lesson, I hope you take care of yourself."
Alright! "
Liu Biao stroked his beard with excitement in his eyes.
Liu Xiu's words had made Sun Ren's words useless, which made Liu Biao vent his anger.
All the officials and officials of Jing Prefecture looked excited as well.
Sun Ren was in a daze, and his eyes revealed a look of disbelief. Suddenly, Sun Ren cupped his hands and bowed like a jade pillar. He said sincerely, "Sun Ren will remember Young Master Xiu's teachings. I did not lose unjustly." Sun Ren had already noticed the bottleneck in his swordsmanship. Liu Xiu pointed it out, which made Sun Ren understand it clearly.
Liu Xiu nodded slightly and went back to his seat.
In terms of swordsmanship, Liu Xiu was definitely a master.
In his previous life, after Liu Xiu submitted to Cao Cao, in order to avoid suspicion, he ignored government affairs and switched to swordsmanship instead. In the current era, Liu Xiu learned swordsmanship from the master swordsman of Nanyang, Deng Zhan, and then from the master swordsman of Luoyang, Shi Ah. Because of self-protection, Liu Xiu had been hiding his skills and did not reveal his swordsmanship.
Looh Su sighed. This time, he had failed, and he had lost the chance to ask Huang Zu to apologize.
However, the purpose of the trip to Jing Prefecture was to numb Liu Biao. It was not a big deal for him to admit defeat. Immediately, Looh Su said, "Liu Jingzhou, Jiangdong has lost. We are willing to admit defeat. After I return, Lord will make peace with the army and never invade Jing Prefecture again."
Liu Biao was delighted. He said lightly, "I hope your master will keep his promise."
Looh Su said, "Liu Jingzhou is the ruler of the nine counties of Jingxiang. His son is also an excellent swordsman. He is really a tiger without a dog."
Liu Biao said humbly, " Lieutenant Lu is too kind!"
Looh Su changed the topic and suddenly said, "Young Master Xiu is outstanding and his martial arts skills are outstanding. I am very impressed. Instead of burying his talent in Jing Prefecture, he might as well go to Jiangdong as a guest. My master will definitely welcome him."
When Liu Xiu appeared, Looh Su could tell that Liu Xiu, Liu Cong, and Liu Biao didn't have a good relationship.
His words were full of provocation.
Liu Cong's eyes were spitting fire when he heard that. He clenched his fists tightly, as if he wanted to swallow Liu Xiu alive. Because in Looh Su's eyes, there was only Liu Xiu, and not Liu Cong.
Liu Biao's expression was slightly gloomy. Liu Xiu was Liu Biao's son. How could he go to the Jiangdong?
Liu Xiu smiled lightly and replied, "Liu Xiu appreciates Mr. Zijing's good intentions. Please rest assured, Mr. Zijing. In the future, Liu Xiu will definitely go to Jiangdong and personally lead the army to visit Jiangdong."
The expression on Liu Biao's face suddenly changed. He laughed and said, "Well said!"
Looh Su smiled and said, "Young Master Xiu is so happy!"
However, Looh Su felt a wave of regret in his heart. He originally wanted to provoke them, but he did not expect Liu Xiu to take advantage of the situation and actually say that he wanted to step on the Jiangdong and turn the situation around. He was quick-witted, which made Looh Su secretly praise him.
He simply cupped his hands and said, "There are still matters that need to be dealt with in the Jiangdong, so I won't bother you any longer. Farewell!"
"Take care, I won't see you off!"
Liu Biao waved his hand and watched Looh Su, Sun Ren, and the others leave.
After Looh Su and the others left, Liu Cong jumped out again and said, "Third brother's swordsmanship is excellent. Why didn't he come earlier? If he defeated Sun Ren earlier, father wouldn't have to worry."
Liu Xiu sneered in his heart. It seemed that Liu Cong was determined to fight him.
Looking at Liu Biao's expression, the smile on his face disappeared as expected.
With Liu Biao's personality, if he didn't explain himself clearly, he would definitely make Liu Biao hate him.
Liu Xiu had a smile on his face and said neither servile nor overbearing, "Second Brother was wrong. It was not that I did not want to go on stage on purpose. I didn't dare to show up without knowing Sun Ren's sword skills."
Liu Cong snorted and said, "Nonsense!"
Liu Xiu calculated that Liu Cong would ask more questions and said, "In the art of war, it is said that knowing oneself and knowing the enemy is a hundred victories. Only by knowing Sun Ren's situation can I make a reasonable judgment. If I recklessly rush forward to challenge him and fail, not only will I lose my face, but also my father's and the entire Jing Prefecture's face. "
Pausing for a moment, Liu Xiu said in a neither servile nor overbearing manner. As a son, it is necessary to share father's burden. However, if you are hot-headed and act recklessly, that is the courage of a man."
The corner of Liu Cong's mouth twitched. He was scolding him on purpose. However, Liu Cong thought about it and for a moment, he could not find any words to refute it. He felt extremely aggrieved in his heart.
When Liu Biao heard this, his expression was full of praise.
Liu Xiu's eyes were full of confidence as he continued, "Father has always taught us to read. Only by reading can we understand and act rationally. The art of war says that the master must not be angry and the master must not be angry and fight. "This is also the reason why we need to calm down and deal with it."
Liu Cong snorted and made up his mind not to speak anymore.
Huang Zhong's eyes were full of praise. He cupped his fists and said, "Lord has such a beautiful daughter. I'm so envious."
Cai Mao looked at the angry Liu Cong and said, "Third Young Master has defeated Sun Ren. Jiangdong has surrendered. This official congratulates Lord." Cai Mao stood on Liu Cong's side, but Liu Xiu acted appropriately. Adding Huang Zhong's words, Cai Mao could not belittle Liu Xiu.
The rest of the civil and military officials all congratulated Liu Biao.
For a moment, the hall was filled with praises. Liu Biao's face was full of smiles and pride. He had completely forgotten that he had never taught Liu Xiu a lesson.
