    91. Strings of Sadness and Suffering

    With a soft "ding", the swords and fans collided.

    In the next moment, the blade slanted sideways, crossed the ridge of the fan, and continued to attack the owner of the fan.

    Pei Nianyu hurriedly followed the method he had just taught, turned his wrist, slapped the fan horizontally, and slapped Jianfeng flat.

    However, it was half a beat short of the impending reaction, and the sword edge still hit his shoulder.

    "the first time."

    Hearing Lou Yefeng's words several times, Pei Nianyu was taken aback for a moment, then frowned, and stared straight at Lou Yefeng.

    This is... his first time confronting someone, how can he adapt?

    It's not easy to catch Lou Yefeng's moves within ten times.

    His eyes dimmed.

    Lou Yefeng turned a blind eye and said in a deep voice:

    "Come again. The master thinks about the main points of the lecture just now."

    Lou Yefeng continued to fly up, this time he changed the direction of side attack, Pei Nianyu was caught off guard, and turned around only to realize that he had turned in the wrong direction.

    When Pei Nianyu found out that he had used the wrong move, before his fan could spread out to block it, Lou Yefeng's sword tip had already touched his chest.

    Then Lou Yefeng withdrew his sword and turned back, not daring to point his own sword at his master.But his words are not very pleasant:

    "Master, my subordinates have said that you should listen to the wind to identify your position when confronting the enemy... If you really use the wrong move like this, the enemy's sword has already entered your chest by now."

    Pei Nianyu took a deep breath and said nothing.

    He just went up to Lou Yefeng's moves with anger, but when the swords actually met, he realized that his mind would go blank as he had no experience in fighting an enemy.

    Obviously he has practiced all the movements proficiently, but when the opponent attacks, he doesn't remember which one to use.Biological... These are all what Lou Yefeng told him just now.

    It's been two times, and he still hasn't touched it much.

    Lou Yefeng didn't continue, but left time for his master to contemplate for a moment, seeing that Pei Nianyu seemed to be enlightened, he picked up the sword formula again:

    "Come again."

    Of course, Pei Nianyu didn't want to be beaten again today, so he had to force himself to concentrate. He had to use all his strength to see the opponent's attack clearly, and racked his brains to think how to prevent the opponent from hitting him.Own.

    "the third time."

    ——Lou Yefeng's sword hilt was turned upside down to avoid it, and he tapped on Pei Nianyu's acupuncture point through the air.

    Pei Nianyu gritted his teeth.

    "the fourth time."

    ——Pei Nianyu avoided the sword's edge, but not the other palm.Lou Yefeng cut his left palm horizontally and stopped in front of his neck.

    "..."

    Pei Nianyu clenched the fan handle tightly again.

    Perhaps Pei Nianyu's wish was really urgent, and in his desperation, he managed to find a way to counter it.At least all the places he planted, in the next few confrontations

    "the fifth time."

    …………

    "the sixth time."

    …………

    "The eighth time."

    Lou Yefeng stopped his moves and stood still, looking at his master.

    And Pei Nianyu panicked.

    In fact, in just eight short moves, his progress has been very obvious.In this first move, Qingshu Zhaoshui's moves change, but the movements are not coherent.When Lou Yefeng designed it, he had already considered that the master was not good at memorizing and mastering too complicated moves.

    Pei Nianyu is now able to perform most of the previous actions to his heart's content.Only the last movement of each change is also the most critical move to defeat the enemy——

    Perhaps Pei Nianyu really lacked some talent. In short, he failed repeatedly.One move, several clashes of weapons.Pei Nianyu had been able to block the previous few times, but before he was able to counterattack at the end, he suddenly made a mistake in judgment and was succeeded by Lou Yefeng.

    Lou Yefeng remained expressionless, watching his master's expression change from confusion to hesitation, he said a short sentence:

    "It's almost there."

    However, in fact, as the number of times approached ten times, although Pei Nianyu's skills became more and more enlightened, his mentality of fighting became more and more disintegrated.

    Pei Nianyu's heartbeat gradually accelerated.

    Can he perfectly catch Lou Yefeng's moves within the remaining two times?

    "Come again."

    Pei Nianyu forced himself to brace himself to take the move, but perhaps because he was too nervous this time, he did not perform as well as last time.

    "...the ninth time."

    As soon as Lou Yefeng uttered the three words, Pei Nianyu's hand holding the fan trembled involuntarily when the move fell to the ground.

    He lowered his head, hiding his depressed expression in the shadow, and did not look at Lou Yefeng.However, before he could calm down, he suddenly heard a slightly serious voice from the opposite side:

    "Why did you regress this time?"

    Pei Nianyu looked up in astonishment, his heart was instantly filled with grievances - if you hadn't hit me after ten times, how could I be so nervous?

    Lou Yefeng waited for a while, seeing that the master still didn't speak, he sighed softly in his heart.

    The master may not be able to catch it next time.

    It's just that it's almost there, the master has to practice this move.

    Even if he can't beat his current level, how can the master display the power of this set of moves?

    Lou Yefeng narrowed his gaze, and continued to fly up:

    "Come again."

    Pei Nianyu stood on the spot, and out of the corner of his eye, he could see a black shadow rushing towards him like an eagle. He skillfully opened his fan to block, and it almost became an automatic reaction of his body.

    However, a sense of absurdity suddenly rose in his heart——

    In this world, there is such an embarrassing master like him, who hides and flees under the blade of his own shadow guard, in a state of embarrassment, just to avoid being beaten by his own shadow guard...

    During the confrontation, he inadvertently saw Lou Yefeng's face that was very close to him - like a hard stone, eternal.

    Looking at his stern eyes, Pei Nianyu suddenly felt bitter.This slight distraction caused him to make a wrong move, and in an instant the opponent's sword hit his chest again.

    When Lou Yefeng drew back his moves and stood up, Pei Nianyu slowly lowered the folding fan in his hand, without looking at him with his head down.

    "The tenth time."

    Pei Nianyu only felt that Lou Yefeng's deep voice, which he liked very much on weekdays, was like the sound of death at this moment.As soon as the three words came out for the tenth time, Pei Nianyu trembled slightly.

    ...He still failed, he didn't catch Lou Yefeng's move within ten times.

    And Lou Yefeng looked at the master who was several feet away, and sighed insignificantly.

    Of course he knew that this was already a great improvement for the master. With the master's talent, it was already a very challenging challenge for him to do this ten times.

    He could see the master's hard work and hard work, as well as his eagerness to overcome him, but he still lacked some spirituality.

    Therefore, Lou Yefeng didn't actually intend to take out the thorn stick and hit the master five more times.He put his sword back into its sheath, and walked towards his master slowly, wanting to explain to him the problems that had arisen in the counter move just now.

    One step, two steps.

    Hearing the footsteps, Pei Nianyu raised his head in panic, and saw Lou Yefeng approaching him step by step.

    His mind exploded, and patches of darkness emerged before his eyes.

    At this moment, there was only one thought in Pei Nianyu's mind——

    Is he going to be beaten again... is he going to be beaten again...

    Pei Nianyu subconsciously took a step back, and then another step.

    He forced himself to stop backing with difficulty, and then the circles of his eyes turned red.He unconsciously bit his lower lip, looked at Lou Yefeng:

    "Ye Feng, you...you..."

    When Lou Yefeng saw the master's eyes, he was struck by lightning and stopped in place, unable to take a half step forward.

    what did he see

    The owner's eyes were like a frightened kitten, subconsciously displaying all defensive postures.

    His master... his master is actually afraid of him...

    He used to be the shadow guard most trusted by his master, but now his master is actually afraid of approaching him...

    Lou Yefeng was in a huge shock.

    —what has he done to his master?

    "Ye Feng, can you hit me lightly..."

    After Pei Nianyu uttered the second half of his sentence, he finally couldn't bear the grievance in his heart anymore, and lowered his eyes to the ground, letting the tears uncontrollably fall down in his eyes.

    Pei Nianyu was completely immersed in the emotions of fear and grievance, and did not notice Lou Yefeng's expression as if he had been punched by someone.

    He didn't see any movement from Lou Yefeng for a long while, but he only said that Lou Yefeng was waiting for him to finish crying and punish him quickly.Therefore, he didn't dare to look up at Lou Yefeng, for fear that when he looked up, he would see Lou Yefeng looking at him coldly, and he might collapse on the spot.

    He knew that his Ye Feng would never show mercy, this was true for his enemies, his subordinates, and his master... the same.

    The more he thought about it, the sadder Pei Nianyu felt, but he knew clearly that in front of Ye Feng, his family, no matter how sad... it was useless.

    That's right, Lou Yefeng said one thing and one thing, when was there an exception?

    He is an adult, not a child.

    So he knew that no amount of tears was worth anything.

    Even though Pei Nianyu's heart was twisted into a ball, he slowly stopped his tears.He thought to himself, stretching his head and retracting his head in any way is a knife, sooner or later he will suffer.

    So with trembling fingers, he slowly untied the white bandage on his left hand, exposing the swollen palm.

    Pei Nianyu turned his face away, the brilliance in his eyes dimmed, as if he was extremely sad, and he said in a flat or even indifferent tone:

    "...you have to hit fast."

    Lou Yefeng's heart suddenly felt as if a needle had been pricked, and dense pain hit his chest, making him completely out of breath.

    The master's hand...how...how could it be like this?

    How could the master...

    Looking at his master's shrinking expression and those gray eyes, he finally realized how wrong he was.

    He thought that physical punishment would make his master practice martial arts harder, and he had indeed achieved this goal, but he didn't know until now... how deeply he hurt his master.

    So deep... The master is the most noble prince in the world, yet he is afraid of a shadow guard.

    At the same time, he also knew... how much his master indulged him.

    It is clear that the master can lose any authority with a single word, but the master still obeys his order.

    Lou Yefeng couldn't stand anymore, his knees softened, and he knelt down heavily.

    "Master...Subordinates...Subordinates have offended Master, please punish Master."

    Pei Nianyu was stunned for a while before he realized it. He slowly raised his eyes and looked at the black figure kneeling in front of him.

    The serious face that had not changed for thousands of years finally melted.

    He saw unspeakable regret and guilt...and heartache.

    Distressed...?

    What did you do early?

    Pei Nianyu was silent for a while, thinking of his grievances and sadness in the past two days, and then laughed at himself twice:

    "Ye Feng..."

    Lou Yefeng couldn't help being surprised when he saw his master's eyes gradually turning cold.

    "—do you still know... I am your master?"

    Accompanied by the roar, Pei Nianyu swiped forward with the fan in his right hand, hitting Lou Yefeng's chest.

    The black figure flew up and landed heavily on the ground.
