Chapter 235 – With no woman in his heart, one can master the sword!
Ye Qingyu arrived just in time to see Liu Ye Han and Meng Fan sparring.
Calling it sparring might be an overstatement, as from the moment Liu Ye Han drew his sword to the moment Meng Fan's sword returned, grazing Liu Ye Han's scalp, it all happened in an instant—like a flash of lightning!
"If Senior Brother Meng hadn't held back, you'd already be a corpse," Ye Qingyu said coldly as she entered.
Apart from Meng Fan and Yang Shishi, the rest were all disciples of the Alchemy Hall.
Liu Ye Han and Liu Changyuan, being quite familiar with Ye Qingyu, knew her cold nature. Although her words were unpleasant, Liu Ye Han didn't argue back.
However... Ye Qingyu actually addressed Meng Fan as Senior Brother?
Liu Ye Han and Liu Changyuan exchanged glances, both seeing the surprise in each other's eyes.
As the Chosen Beauty of the Alchemy Hall, Ye Qingyu had always been proud and looked down on everyone. Now she was voluntarily calling a sixth-level Heavenly Origin disciple of Shu Mountain "Senior Brother"?
What Meng Fan didn't expect was that just because of Ye Qingyu's address, his image suddenly grew much grander in the eyes of the Liu brothers!
"Senior Sister Ye, what brings you here?" Liu Changyuan quickly walked up to Ye Qingyu, asking with a hint of surprise and a trace of joy.
Meng Fan observed this scene and, with just a few words, could sense the aura of a simp.
Unfortunately, from what he knew about Ye Qingyu, such a woman couldn't be won over by flattery. Liu Changyuan was destined to fail!
"I came to ask Senior Brother Meng for guidance on sword techniques," Ye Qingyu said coldly to Liu Changyuan.
Though her attitude was icy, seeing Ye Qingyu respond to him made Liu Changyuan's eyes light up with excitement.
Meng Fan watched this silently and sighed inwardly.
With no woman in his heart, one can master the sword!
It seemed that guiding Liu Changyuan would require more time and effort.
On the other side, Liu Ye Han picked up his fallen saber, paying little attention to Ye Qingyu. However, her reaction made him look at Meng Fan with even more seriousness.
"Junior Brother Meng, if I’m not mistaken, you were using the Aurora Sword Technique and have already mastered the Sword Momentum. No wonder Yanping asked me to come!
A gentleman's word is his bond. If you can guide me to master the Aurora Sword Momentum, I am willing to offer two thousand Spirit Stones."
Meng Fan immediately smiled, extremely pleased.
Originally, it was a deal for just a thousand Spirit Stones, but with a few words, it had doubled to two thousand.
This money was too easy to earn!
"Sure, sure," Meng Fan said with a broad smile.
Ye Qingyu glanced at Liu Ye Han, then turned to Meng Fan and said, "Senior Brother Meng, as the saying goes, first come, first served. You started guiding me yesterday; shouldn't you finish with me first today?"
She wanted to be the first to receive guidance, finish early, and leave early. This young lady was somewhat anti-social and disliked being around many people.
Meng Fan shook his head, "Don't rush. I've seen Liu Ye Han's sword technique, but I haven't seen Liu Changyuan's yet. Let me observe his technique first. After that, I'll guide you!"
Liu Changyuan naturally had no objections. Even his cousin Liu Ye Han, who was at the ninth level of Heavenly Origin, had been subdued by Meng Fan. What could he say?
Moreover, seeing Senior Sister Ye respect Meng Fan so much, he wouldn't dare show any disrespect.
He quickly said to Meng Fan, "Senior Brother Meng, I've been practicing the Spring Thunder Sword Technique recently but haven't managed to grasp the Sword Intent."
He had more than just the Spring Thunder Sword Technique in his repertoire. He had already mastered the Sword Intent of the Blazing Sword Technique, but the Sword Momentum was still far off. He didn't dare hope Meng Fan could guide him to master Sword Momentum.
So, he only mentioned the Spring Thunder Sword Technique, not the Blazing Sword Technique. Mastering Sword Intent was simpler than mastering Sword Momentum.
He didn't want to embarrass himself in front of Ye Qingyu by failing to achieve Sword Momentum.
It's worth noting that he originally practiced the Blazing Sword Technique because Ye Qingyu practiced it, hoping to impress her. Unfortunately, Ye Qingyu never paid him any attention.
"Practice the Spring Thunder Sword Technique for me," Meng Fan said to Liu Changyuan.
Meng Fan had seen the Spring Thunder Sword Technique in the Scripture Pavilion before. Having practiced Elder Lin's Thunderous Sword Technique, he had paid extra attention to the Spring Thunder Sword Technique.
In truth, the Thunderous Sword Technique was much stronger than the Spring Thunder Sword Technique, being close to the Heavenly Grade.
Moments later, Liu Changyuan finished practicing the Spring Thunder Sword Technique.
Meng Fan smiled, "This is the simplest deal. Prepare five hundred Spirit Stones."
Previously, Liu Yanping and Meng Fan had agreed that guiding someone to master Sword Intent would cost five hundred Spirit Stones, while mastering Sword Momentum would cost a thousand.
"Huh?" Liu Changyuan was momentarily stunned, not quite processing Meng Fan's sudden words.
Meng Fan patiently explained, "Your request is too simple. I can guide you to master Sword Intent today, so prepare the Spirit Stones!"
"How is that possible?" Liu Changyuan looked at Meng Fan in disbelief. He knew his own situation well; how could he master Sword Intent in a day?
He wasn't worthy!
Liu Yanping pinched Liu Changyuan's waist, scolding, "Just do as you're told. Would Senior Brother Meng deceive you?"
Her brother's lack of ambition and experience embarrassed her.
"But..." Liu Changyuan frowned at his sister, wanting to say more.
"No buts!" Liu Yanping glared at him.
"Alright," Liu Changyuan yielded to his sister's authority.
Honestly, it's rare to see a brother so afraid of his sister!
Liu Yanping glanced at her brother, suspiciously asking, "You don't have the Spirit Stones, do you?"
Liu Changyuan's face turned red, and he quickly said, "Of course I do, it's just five hundred Spirit Stones."
His expression said otherwise!
Liu Yanping knew her brother too well. Not even five hundred Spirit Stones? How pitiful!
She discreetly slipped five high-grade Spirit Stones to Liu Changyuan, preserving his dignity.
Unbeknownst to her, Meng Fan saw the whole thing.
Truth be told, Meng Fan hadn't expected this. They say daughters should be raised rich and sons poor, but this disparity was too much!
Meng Fan sighed inwardly, pretending not to see, to preserve the poor brother's dignity.
Meanwhile, he couldn't help but think that if he had children in the future, he would ensure gender equality!
