Chapter 166 Hey, did you know? We have an older brother who's really good with a sword!
"All right."
As he spoke, Zuo Qing clapped his hands, dusted off the dust on his body, and said very seriously.
"You cannot leave here before the comprehensive education program concludes. Study hard... Don't let Commander Ye's efforts go to waste. He paid a great price to bring this teacher here..."
Upon hearing this, all six children showed curious expressions.
Who are our teachers?
"You'll find out tonight."
.............
A day later, Li Jie successfully resolved the supernatural event that had occurred in the northwest.
He originally planned to go directly to the hiding place of the third immortal sword, but a phone call from Commander Ye forced him to turn back.
In the desert, Li Jie leaned against one of the few withered trees, enjoying the shade, and answered the phone call from Commander Ye.
"Hello, Commander Ye?"
"Ah! Li Jie! Um... I need your help with something..."
Ye Fan's voice was intermittent, leaving Li Jie completely confused.
The environment on the other end of the phone was very noisy, with occasional sounds of running water and breaking porcelain.
"I've read your mission report; you did a great job..."
"Hey...no! Wait, I'm not finished washing yet!!..."
"It won't work, it won't work... That hasn't been charged yet!..."
Upon hearing this, Li Jie instinctively pulled the phone receiver away, as the noise was simply too loud.
"Is there anything urgent? If not, Commander Ye, why don't you go ahead with your business?"
In fact, Li Jie had already vaguely guessed what Ye Fan was doing.
Because of Lin Qiye and others, he invited the Sword Saint, who was ranked first among the five human masters of the Great Xia Dynasty, to be their teacher.
In order to persuade Zhou Ping to go to Huaihai City, Ye Fan humbled himself and took over the job of 'Sword Saint', becoming a waitress at Third Uncle's restaurant.
Unexpectedly, Commander Ye, who is usually so meticulous in his planning, became so flustered and overwhelmed after becoming a waiter...
"Don't hang up! Don't hang up!! Almost done!!... Ah... Coming, coming!!!"
"I'll get to the point quickly, you need to go to Huaihai City right now!! Someone there wants to see you!!"
see me?
"Who wants to see me?"
Li Jie asked in confusion, but apart from the busy tone of the phone, no other sound came from the receiver.
Seeing this, he shook his head helplessly, put his phone back in his pocket, beckoned to the Immortal-Slaying Sword hanging in mid-air, then flipped over and leaped away rapidly into the distance.
A strong wind arose, and the swirling yellow sand instantly buried the huge carcass of a poisonous scorpion, sinking it into the ground.
.............
Just now, Zhou Mengmeng tried to escape from the warehouse but failed and was blocked by the guards.
Lin Qiye and the other six children also discovered that the strongest person in the Great Xia Dynasty, one of the top sword saints, was actually a social phobia!
In order not to let Commander Ye's painstaking efforts go to waste, the six little ones began a secret discussion on how to keep this socially awkward teacher!
“The Sword Saint said that he has focused on two things in his life: swordsmanship and cleaning. But we can’t keep this place a mess every day…” Cao Yuan said with his hands supporting his chin, looking helpless.
Fatty pouted, leaned back weakly in his chair, and muttered something.
"Having the Sword Saint clean for us every day... won't that shorten our lifespan...?"
“Perhaps… there really is a way…” An Qingyu pushed up her thick glasses and looked up at Lin Qiye with eyes that shimmered with a gray light.
The latter immediately understood what he meant.
After considering the feasibility of this plan, he playfully beckoned everyone to sit around a small table and begin a new round of secret plotting...
"I think... we should do it this way..."
"........"
After a rustling sound, all five boys except Jialan grinned mischievously.
They all looked at the room with the light on in the dormitory building and quietly crept up...
"Sigh... what a pity, Brother Li didn't come this time..."
"Indeed... He also uses a sword. If he could be instructed by the Sword Saint, he would definitely be able to advance to another level..."
"By the way, do you guys think Brother Li and the Sword Saint are stronger with swords?"
"That's hard to say... If we're judging by cultivation level, then Sword Saint is definitely more powerful..."
"Then what?....."
"If we're talking about sword techniques, maybe Brother Li is stronger?"
Five teenagers paced back and forth in front of the brightly lit dormitory door, talking loudly as they peered into the closed room...
"Sigh... I'm afraid I won't have the chance to see them fight..."
"Why...?..."
"Because the Sword Saint senior didn't want to teach us either, and Brother Li was also sent by Commander Ye to carry out a mission in the Northwest..."
"Indeed... I wonder when we'll be able to meet again..."
“…”
In fact, even if they hadn't said these things in the hallway, Zhou Ping, as the Sword Saint, would have known what they were talking about.
Zhou Ping, who had initially felt humiliated and was eager to escape, became interested upon hearing that there was also a master swordsman.
He couldn't help but stand up from his desk and lean against the door frame, listening to Lin Qiye and the others 'calling' in the hallway.
"I remember Brother Li once killed Loki's divine projection... What was that move called again?"
Slaying the projection of a god?
Hearing this, Zhou Ping's curiosity grew even stronger.
So, this Brother Li they're talking about might also be a top-tier swordsman?
"It's called 'A Hundred-Step Flying Sword, One Blade Severing a Throat,' you guys didn't see the scene, my god..."
Just as Zhou Ping wanted to hear more, the hallway suddenly fell silent.
He was now completely unaware that Lin Qiye and the others had drawn him into the storyline.
In other words, the mighty Sword Saint of the Great Xia Dynasty was defeated by a swordsman he had never heard of before...
It turned out to be a mandarin fish!
I really want to spar with this Brother Li they're talking about...
The Hundred-Step Flying Sword... that sounds really impressive...
What happened next?
When he tried to investigate further, there was no further news.
This made Zhou Ping feel like he was being scratched by a cat, an unbearable itch...
He couldn't help but open the tightly closed door and peek out to look for Lin Qiye and the others.
As he reached the bathroom door, sensing his arrival, Lin Qiye gave a glance to the person beside him and continued the discussion...
"And that sword strike when he killed Han Shaoyun... that was really cool... what was it called again..."
"Oh dear... that was so long ago... I think it was called... 'The Immortal Kneels with One Sword'?"
"I really want to see that sword strike again..."
A swordsman kneels?
What an imposing name!
Upon hearing this, Zhou Ping couldn't help but raise his proud head, as if he himself had wielded that sword.
Just then... Lin Qiye and the others 'just finished washing up' and came out of the washroom.
When they saw the Sword Saint standing at the door 'listening to a story', Lin Qiye approached him with a wicked grin.
He spoke in a soft, low voice.
"Hey? Sword Saint Senior... did you know? We have an older brother who's also very skilled with a sword!"
