Sick Beauty [Rebirth]

th, it separated into two neat sections. 

While using the sword, Ye Yunlan’s cold voice sounded.

“When the long sword is pierced forwards, the wrist does not move.
The arm exerts strength and the heart is combined with the sword.
Qi moves at will; when it is slashed vertically, the elbow is raised.
When the qi intent is frozen…” 

He was explaining the main points, then frowned.
He retracted the sword back into the sheath and said to Shen Shu: “Wait here for a while to digest everything I said.
I will be back soon.” 

Shen Shu slowly recovered his senses and said in a low voice: “En.” 

Ye Yunlan turned and walked straight through the sea of ​​flowers and walked into the bamboo forest. 

He had already noticed that there was someone in the bamboo forest, but he didn’t bother to pay attention to them.
However, when he used the sword, their gaze was too heated to be ignored. 

Ye Yunlan could think of only one person who would come to his remote residence. 

Rong Ran. 

He furrowed his eyebrows and held the queying sword in his hand.
Suddenly, he heard a voice from the bamboo forest in front of him. 

“There are beautiful women dancing in the distance.
It is suspected that Luoshen has landed on earth.
Fortunately, I had an encounter and now my heart and soul are eager to be immortal…” (Luoshen = goddess of the river known for her utmost beauty and tenderness)

Ye Yunlan: “…” 

Being able to recite such greasy poems, it shouldn’t be Rong Ran.

He stepped over and saw a young man in a brown cloth robe hidden by the bamboo leaves, squatting on the ground.
He did not know what he was doing. 

This person should be the source of that hot gaze just now.

“What are you doing?” Ye Yunlan asked. 

Chen Xianyu was taken aback.
He raised his head to look at Ye Yunlan, his expression was stunned.
He said blankly: “Luo Shen…” 

“Luo Shen?” Ye Yunlan frowned. 

“Luo, no, that’s not right, Junior Brother Ye…I, I was painting just now.” Chen Xianyu stammered a little. 

“Painting?” Ye Yunlan’s voice was still cold. 

“Yes, painting, I’m painting…” Chen Xianyu looked around, “Bamboo! I’m painting the bamboo here!” 

Ye Yunlan looked at Chen Xianyu expressionlessly.
He remembered that he had seen this person at Wendao slope.
He had also helped him pick up his picture book. 

He didn’t look at him carefully at the time, but now he realized that this person was quite familiar. 

——Similar to someone he didn’t want to meet again in this life. 

His tone couldn’t help being more indifferent, “Since you are just painting bamboo, why are you sneaking around here?” 

Chen Xianyu faltered. 

Ye Yunlan: “This place is not far from where I live.
I am a sword cultivator.
I don’t like to be disturbed by other people when I practice my sword.
This bamboo forest is very vast.
Can I bother you to find another place to paint?” 

Chen Xianyu frowned upon hearing this.

“Junior Brother Ye, although there are many bamboos in this bamboo forest, there is only one phoenix bamboo with such a beautiful posture.
It teaches people to forget the vulgarity of life.
If I go elsewhere, how can I find such a bamboo to paint?”

Phoenix Bamboo is the sacred product of bamboo.
But it was already extinct ten thousand years ago.

This person was obviously talking nonsense. 

“Where is the green-tailed phoenix bamboo in this green bamboo forest?” Ye Yunlan said coldly. 

“Junior Brother Ye, can’t you hear it?” Chen Xianyu’s face was slightly red.
He decided to break the jar (reveal the truth), “What I originally painted was not the bamboo, but…but you, Junior Brother Ye.” 

“Since I saw you at WenDao slope that day, I have not forgotten Junior Brother.
I waited here for many days before I saw you come out, so I couldn’t help but paint a portrait of you.” 

“My name is Chen Xianyu.
My nickname is ‘painting craze.
I often paint for Senior Brothers and Sisters, I’m not…not a sneaky person.” 

Speaking of painting, Chen Xianyu spoke more fluently, “Junior Brother, do you know Xu Qingyue, the first beauty in the cultivation world? Back then, he was famous for his Yaotai sword dance.
I always thought that no one in the world could surpass it, until today, I saw Junior Brother use a sword and I knew I was wrong.” 

“If Junior Brother can let me paint a complete picture of you, when your portraits spread, I am afraid that the name of the first beauty in the cultivation world will change hands.
There will be countless people who will become crazy for you…” 

“I don’t want to leave any portraits in the world.” 

Ye Yunlan’s words were like a bucket of ice water that woke up Chen Xianyu.
“Why?” 

“It’s meaningless.” Ye Yunlan said indifferently.

Chen Xianyu: “How can it be meaningless? Being in the world, who doesn’t want to leave a trace of themselves.
In this way, living in this world would not be in vain…”

Ye Yunlan: “I don’t want to.” 

“But…” Chen Xianyu still wanted to try to persuade him. 

Ye Yunlan only said: “Brother Chen, please go back.” 

Chen Xianyu saw the fed up appearance of the person in front of him.
He knew that he had completely annoyed the beauty and no amount of persuasion could be achieved. 

He wrinkled his face bitterly. 

But if such a beauty can’t be included in his book of beauty, he was afraid he wouldn’t be able to sleep peacefully in this life. 

When Ye Yunlan returned to the bamboo house, he saw Shen Shu making gestures with a wooden sword. 

“What did Master do?” Shen Shu asked curiously when he came back. 

Ye Yunlan said indifferently: “Chased off an annoying bamboo rat.” 

Shen Shu blinked without asking much. 

Ye Yunlan looked at the sky to see it was not too early: “Come, I will teach you a few swordplays.” 

Shen Shu’s eyes lit up, “Okay.”

Ye Yunlan searched out the basic swordplay practiced by Sky Sect disciples from his memory. 

He hadn’t used this sword technique for more than two hundred years, so he was a little rusty.
It took a few moves to be smooth. 

But Shen Shu next to him eagerly followed him to learn the movements.
After just a while, he was able to learn 70-80 percent of it. 

Ye Yunlan realized that it was not only formation techniques.
Shen Shu might also have an excellent talent in sword dao. 

Facts have proved this. 

As long as he demonstrated the swordplay once, Shen Shu would be able to learn most of it.
After a few minutes of in-depth explanation, there would be no defects. 

Teaching and teaching, Ye Yunlan was suddenly interested in fighting against each other. 

After teaching a set of sword techniques, he did not pull out his querying sword.
Instead, he bent over and picked up the flowers on the ground. 

“Want to try a newly learned swordplay?” 

Shen Shu nodded, his eyes sparkling, “Yes!” 

Ye Yunlan had a slight smile in his eyes, “Then make your move.” 

The master and disciple fought each other in the open space in front of the bamboo building.
Two statures, one tall and one short, intertwined.

The young man using the sword had a tinge of madness to it.
Although there were still many flaws, it made him feel a sense of oppression that he hadn’t felt for a long time. 

After a long time, the two people stopped. 

Shen Shu’s face was flushed with sweat, his eyes were still filled with excitement.

Although Ye Yunlan had not used all his strength, his back was soaked with sweat and his clothes stuck to his back. 

Sweat dripped down his cheeks.
He panted and tried to steady his breathing.

Seeing that Shen Shu wanted to continue, he had no choice but to shout: 

“Stop.” 

Shen Shu stopped.
“Master?” 

“I’ll stop here for today.” Ye Yunlan raised his sleeve to wipe the sweat on his face. 

He felt a faint pain in his chest, but he didn’t show any signs on his face.
He only said: “There are 17 flaws in the sword technique you just used.
I will explain it to you carefully.” 

Shen Shu looked at the person in front of him.
With a sweaty shirt and tired appearance, he decisively said: “How about…I’ll go boil water for Master first.
Master will rest for a while, then talk to me.
It just so happens that I am also very tired.”     

Ye Yunlan muttered to himself.
He was indeed exhausted, “Okay, let’s do that, but you don’t need to boil water.
I remember that there is a hot spring in Yanhui Peak.
Soaking in it has the effect of loosening the muscles and bones.
It’d be perfect for you and me to soak together and talk.”     

“Soak…and talk?     

Shen Shu froze.

Seeing that he did not respond, Ye Yunlan asked, “What?”     

Shen Shu returned to his senses.     

“No, it’s nothing Master…..
let’s go.”    

    ——

Chen Xianyu wobbled back to his cave dwelling.
He walked along and recited the poems of Luoshen that were recorded in ancient books.     

“…like a light cloud covering the moon and snow that floats in the wind.
The shoulders are narrow, and the waist is raw silk.
The neck is stretched, the quality exposed…”     

Suddenly he heard a soft halt: “Chen Xianyu! In broad daylight showing such a wretched expression on your face, which Senior Sister did you bother?”     

Chen Xianyu instinctively hugged the picture book in his arms, and said bitterly: “I didn’t do anything, Senior Sister Xiaowan, just let me go.
What’s more, I am not bothering them, I am just painting.
Do you understand the dao of painting? Haven’t you seen Senior Sister Yin and the others view my paintings, then praise me for being a painting craze.” 

“Pei (sound of spitting), what painting craze, you are clearly just a love-struck fool!” Lin Xiaowan said angrily.
She narrowed her eyes, “I can see that you are ill at ease since seeing Junior Brother Ye last time.
Were you disturbing Junior Brother Ye?” 

“How could I?” Chen Xianyu stammered, then he stepped on his gaspedal, “I’m in a hurry to go back to my cave dwelling to do something, I will see you later Senior Sister.”

“You p*rvert, stay still for me! “Lin Xiaowan behind him called out. 

Chen Xianyu ran wildly. 

After finally returning to his cave, he wiped the sweat from his head and slumped on his seat.
His mind was full of the person he had finally seen today. 

He sighed.
It would be great if he could draw the other party… 

Suddenly, he took out a piece of gleaming spirit jade from his arms. 

After reading the news from spirit jade, sweat oozed from the corner of his forehead.
His hands formed a seal and a secret technique was used. 

A water mirror unfolded before his eyes. 

A man in white gradually appeared in the water mirror. 

The man sat in a pavilion with a pond of green lotus behind him. 

He was playing chess with one hand.
He was playing against himself and did not turn his eyes towards Chen Xianyu. 

Chen Xianyu bowed his head and shouted respectfully, “Brother.” 

Time passed. 

Chen Xianyu’s forehead sweat gathered more and more. 

It was not until the end of the game that the man looked sideways towards the water mirror. 

It gave birth to a handsome face that looked like a banished immortal, that also closely resembled Chen Xianyu. 

——If you ask Chen Xianyu which person he feared the most in this world. 

That would be his elder brother. 

Chen Weiyuan.
