Naked Sword Art

Chapter 199 - I Am Stronger Than You

’She’s practicing another method.’

.

An advanced form of fighting is when a cultivator learns how to combine their method-specific spirit attack with their Ordinary qi attacks. However, the girl Xiao Fang was watching didn’t just learn how to simultaneously use two different qi’s in one attack, she learned how to use two different method-specific techniques from two different cultivation methods.

’I wonder what sect she’s from,’ he thought curiously.

It was no secret that the Patriarchs and Matriarchs of the top 13 sects liked to send their children off to study in other sects, Xiao Fang was just surprised to find one so soon.

After a few minutes of watching her, it became physically straining to stay in [ Stealth ] so he planned to leave.

’I’ve had enough fun for tonight,’ he thought before putting back on his blindfold.

However, as soon as he turned around, his [ Stealth ] went down and he was seen. His footsteps weren’t heavy so he should’ve been able to get away without getting caught, but since he was within her field of view she noticed him almost immediately.

Xiao Fang had only taken a step when she suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Who are you?" She asked with her spirit knives hovering around her threateningly.

Xiao Fang was silent, not because he didn’t want to answer her question, but because he was surprised to be caught so quickly. She wasn’t only talented, she was also very quick.

Her knives got even closer to Xiao Fang as if to scare him into talking.

"I won’t ask again. Who are you?" she asked in a more serious tone.

"You can call me Long Wang."

She looked down at his robes and saw that he was a Phoenix-Class disciple like her.

"There aren’t any men in the Phoenix-Class. How did you get your hands on those robes?"

"I was accepted into the Phoenix-Class this year. I came here to introduce myself, but it seems we already got off on the wrong foot."

"You got accepted into the Phoenix-Class this year? I don’t believe you."

Xiao Fang’s spirit mark began to light up.

"Do you still not believe me?"

For a moment, she was almost convinced he was really a disciple of the sect, but she didn’t put her guard down and only threatened him some more.

"No, I still don’t believe you. It doesn’t explain why you would be out here spying on me in the middle of the woods."

Xiao Fang sighed. It seemed that there was nothing he could say that would convince her not to attack him, and frankly, Xiao Fang was too tired to try.

"Long Wang, why were you spying on me."

"I’m a pervert. Now move aside, I need to get back home and rest."

"Not so fast!" She yelled before he could take a step. "Y-you’ve seen too much. I can’t let you go."

"Seen what? I’m blind."

"Y-you can’t trick me."

Xiao Fang sighed.

"If you cared so much about hiding your identity then you shouldn’t be out here practicing another cultivation method for anyone to see."

Her eyes widened from his words as if he had confirmed to her that he knew her secret. With a wave of her sleeve her 12 knives rained down on him, but nothing hit. She didn’t see him move, but in the next moment he was gone.

Standing up on a tree branch, he looked down at her and said,

"As much as I would love to stay here and chat, I need to get some rest. But since I know your secret, I’ll tell you mine to even the score. "

She was uninterested in what Xiao Fang was going to say. The only thing she wanted to do was silence him.

She bent her knees to chase after him, but before her legs could even leave the ground, he suddenly appeared next to her with his hand resting on her shoulder. In a blink of an eye he stopped her from following through with her jump.

Her body broke out into cold sweat. She wasn’t sure how he was able to dodge her knives the first time, but this time she was convinced of a certain fact. A fact Xiao Fang made clear with his next words.

"I’m stronger than you. If you keep my secret, I’ll keep yours," he smiled.

He patted her on the shoulder then disappeared. Once he was gone, she felt like she could finally breathe again.

"That man... Long Wang. If he’s really from the Phoenix-Class then I’ll see him again soon."

When Xiao Fang reached the front door to his guild house, he flowed his ordinary qi through his spirit mark making it glow. In the next moment, his guild nameplate glowed as well, then the front door to his guild house unlocked.

This was one of the benefits of having a guild nameplate. Anyone with a guild nameplate could open 2 doors; the front door and the door to their room. Xiao Fang’s nameplate, however, could open any room in the guild house.

Everything from the small things to the big worked through inscriptions, talismans, and array. This was how the plumbing worked or how the Divine Sword sect was able to hide Yu An within their walls for so long.

Once Xiao Fang was inside, he didn’t go to his master bedroom, instead he went to check on his girls. Xiao Hei was already asleep in her own room and so was Rong Shi. When he went to go check on Jiang Mei, he noticed that her door was left partially open, but he didn’t think anything of it.

’I should wash off first,’ he thought.

He went downstairs to the bath place, but before he got there he could hear the water running. It only took him a moment till he sensed that someone was already down there.

’I see. So that explains why Jiang Mei’s door was open.’

There were no doors to the bath place so he walked right in. Once inside, he took his blindfold off and saw the beauty that was bathing inside. With long golden hair and a tender waist, there weren’t many beauties who could match hers.

When she saw him walk in, her eyes widened happily.

"It’s good to see you again, Da Long"

The bath place was huge and had several showers and baths with temperatures in varying degrees. When Xiao Fang reached her, he tossed her a guild nameplate then said,

"Welcome to the ’Nameless’ guild, Su Yun."
