The end of the world is coming? My parents are reborn to help me win easily

Chapter 98: Darkness Fades Away, Teaching Sword Skills

A tall figure suddenly appeared beside him. Gu Wenyue's heart skipped a beat and he took a few steps back.

"Cang Yan?"

Cang Yan's gaze fell on the face of the woman in front of him. Perhaps because she had just been frightened, she bit her lower lip tightly, and her lively eyes were sparkling with watery light and a hint of nervousness.

His expression relaxed a little, and he asked, "Are you afraid of the dark?"

In the darkness, Gu Wenyue couldn't see his expression, but the slightly rising ending tone made her feel a little embarrassed. She coughed lightly and explained, "I'm not afraid of the dark, but the dense forest at night is indeed scary."

Cang Yan's gaze dropped to her hand that was twisting the corner of her clothes, and the coldness in his eyes faded a little.

He moved his fingers slightly, and the darkness faded away like the tide. After a while, the surroundings were bright again.

Gu Wenyue then let out a long sigh and was about to thank Cang Yan, but she saw that figure also disappeared along with the darkness.

She stood there to calm herself down before changing her bath towel and stepping into the hot spring.

The familiar feeling of comfort enveloped her, and Gu Wenyue's mind went blank.

Half an hour passed quickly and Cang Yan appeared at the edge of the dense forest on time.

Gu Wenyue smoothed her wet hair and said, "Cang Yan, I'm fine. Let's go back."

Cang Yan nodded, and in a flash, the two of them returned to the 26th floor.

He walked to her side and raised his hand. A warm breath lingered around Gu Wenyue. Soon, her half-dry hair became smooth and shiny again.

Cang Yan then placed his hand on the top of her head to probe the strength of her soul.

After a long while, his brows slightly raised, and he said: "There is still a long way to go. You must remember to enter the space in the future."

Gu Wenyue nodded and asked, "Then is there any physical skill or technique that you can teach me?"

Cang Yan's eyes fell on her plain face, and he said with a slight smile: "You want to become my disciple?"

Gu Wenyue's pupils slightly dilated, and he asked in surprise: "Become my disciple? That's not impossible. Do you still need to accept a disciple?"

A powerful being like him who dares to defy the purple thunder of Heaven is probably an admirable existence in the world of immortal cultivation where he originally lived, right?
According to the routine in novels, this kind of boss is usually extremely strict when accepting disciples.

This is also the reason why she didn't ask about the technique at the beginning.

Cang Yan glanced at her and said, "I don't accept disciples. And the humans in this world are not suitable for practicing spiritual energy. But I see that you like to use a knife, so I can help you learn a set of knife skills. How about it?"

Gu Wenyue nodded repeatedly, her peach blossom eyes filled with joy. In today's world, a little more strength means an extra guarantee for survival. She said happily: "Cang Yan, thank you so much!"

"If you really want to thank me, then find the twelve evil beasts as soon as possible."

Gu Wenyue's smile froze on her face, and then she forced a polite smile and said in a calm tone: "Cang Yan, I will try my best."

"It's okay. The beast that just revived is not very strong."

Gu Wenyue's breathing stagnated. She recalled the scene when she first saw Bi Yi and Qing Feng. Cang Yan's "not strong" might be directed at him? But if it was replaced by an ordinary psychic, the casualties would probably be very heavy.

Thinking of this, she felt as if a brick was hanging on her heart. It would have been fine if those ferocious beasts were not too bloodthirsty.

"Among the remaining nine beasts, are there any that are overly bloodthirsty?"

Cang Yan said: "Not really. The reason why they are called fierce beasts is that they were born and raised in the Nine Nether Death Land, and they refuse to be disciplined and do not understand human ethics."

Gu Wenyue breathed a sigh of relief, and then thought, since there had been no sightings of any ferocious beasts in his parents' previous life for about a year, then as long as they found other ferocious beasts within a year, there shouldn't be any big problems.

Cang Yan lowered his eyes and saw the woman in front of him exhaled lightly, her brows relaxed a little. Knowing that this matter did not cause too much burden to her, he did not say anything extra.

Although those beasts were not overly bloodthirsty, they were stubborn and never took the lives of living beings seriously. But there was no need for her to know these words. His only hope of survival was with her, and the matter of the beasts was indeed in vain.

Cang Yan clenched his hands behind his back and said, "Take out the long sword. I will teach you sword skills."

Gu Wenyue was shocked: "Now?!"

Cang Yan nodded: "Yes, now."

Gu Wenyue blinked, took out her usual long sword and handed it to Cang Yan.

Cang Yan held the hilt of the knife with his left hand and gently brushed the blade with his right hand, with some inexplicable emotion in his tone: "You have good taste, this knife was forged by me."

Gu Wenyue's eyes were bright and her gaze met Cang Yan's. She felt her heart stop for a moment.

Cang Yan raised his knife and said, "Watch this."

Having said that, he started to move.

Gu Wenyue's attention was drawn to him. He was teaching her how to use the sword!
The man's figure moved extremely slowly, yet with some mysterious rhythm. As he moved his feet, the long sword in his hand moved along with his slender arm, as if the man and the sword were one.

The sword flashed and moved like flowing clouds and water, its momentum was like a dragon and its shape was like a god.

The knife drops and the momentum is retracted.

Cang Yan turned the knife over in his hand, made a beautiful move, and handed the handle to Gu Wenyue: "But remember it?"

Gu Wenyue's mind was shocked by this sentence, and trembled violently: Once? Remember?

The pair of peach blossom eyes suddenly widened and asked in surprise: "Cang Yan, do you think I can remember it all at once?"

Cang Yan pushed the knife in his hand forward and said, "Now that your soul strength has increased, you may want to give it a try."

After that, he signaled her to take the knife with his eyes.

As she moved, Gu Wenyue's fingers brushed against his cold fingers, and her heart trembled. He seemed to have no body temperature.

Without thinking any more, she closed her eyes and recalled every move that Cang Yan had just made.

Unexpectedly, she vaguely remembered nearly 60%!

Gu Wenyue took a deep breath, and when he opened his eyes again, there was a serious and sharp look in his eyes.

She raised her right hand slightly and pushed the blade out horizontally. Although her movements were clumsy, she performed a few moves in a very decent manner.

Although she remembered about 60%, when she actually did it, she could only perform 30% to 40%.

Until she was completely stuck, she stopped, scratched her head shyly, and said: "Cang Yan, this is all I remember."

Cang Yan's eyebrows softened a little, and even his voice became softer: "Not bad. Although this sword technique does not require spiritual energy, it does require understanding."

Is he praising her for her good understanding? For some reason, Gu Wenyue felt a slight smugness in her heart, and even her face showed a hint of joy.

After Cang Yan finished speaking, he took the knife from her hand and started practicing with the sword again.

Gu Wenyue looked at it more carefully this time and memorized every detail of the technique.

After a few rounds of this, Gu Wenyue was able to barely learn the sword techniques.

Cang Yan nodded and said, "So, you have only learned the surface, and have not touched the depths of the sword technique. In the future, if you have time, come in and contact me, and I will teach you the sword technique."
