Almost as soon as the woman held the sword, Hongye looked over. She no longer paid attention to Osel, who was in charge, and turned to point the sword at the sword in the woman's hand.
"Aren't you going to use this sword yourself?" she asked.
Ausir was still hunched lazily in his seat, looking at the woman holding the sword with admiration. "Of course, Angie is much more skilled with the sword than I am, why shouldn't I give it to her?" he said, "Everyone has their own strengths, but I still like the iron rod. It's much more convenient to hit it on the back of the head than a sword."
"...Anti is her real name, right?"
"Maybe, that's what someone told me." Osier said with a yawn, "God knows what her name is, she never talks to me."
"You put the soul of a wolf into an ordinary person's body, and do you still expect her to speak?"
"To be fair, I didn't expect it. Her silence is the most beautiful thing, little master. This is the real work of art - it doesn't explain anything to you except what you can see yourself. If she If you can speak, it's over. She will complain to you here and there every day, asking you to spend time listening to her. Hey! What's the difference between this and asking for a wife? I'd rather find a rope to hang myself than give another Find your own fault. As for you, little master, I suggest you say less and concentrate on dealing with her. If you want to be foolproof, it is best to use your eyes. I don't mind adding her to the house. A perfect crystal statue.”
"I won't use it."
After saying this, Hongye pursed her lips tightly. In the eyes of Zhou Yu, who was gradually becoming familiar with her habits, it was almost an expression of irritation. Just in case, Zhou Yu leaned towards Ausier calmly.
"Hey, hey, don't be like that," Ausle said immediately. "Dear little girl, you have to follow some rules. Otherwise I'll kick your ass - no, forget it. But I always keep up with the times. , look at this.”
He dug around in the secret compartment under the seat, took out a pistol, quickly opened the safety catch and pointed it at Zhou Yu. Seeing his skilled shooting posture, Zhou Yu could only stand still.
"Good boy," Ausle said, "Using a knife to show off your coolness is outdated! Now is the era of hot weapons. I suggest you get one in the future."
"...I have no interest in collecting contraband."
"Oh, it sounds like your knife is not a controlled product! Let's make a bet. If I give this gun to you, you will definitely put it away without hesitation..."
Ausier was still talking and didn't seem to have any intention of shooting immediately. Zhou Yu couldn't help but turn his attention back to Hongye.
Since just now, Hongye has been standing still. Antiy, who was holding a rapier, swayed his body like a slow dance and walked slowly towards her.
The sword in her hand has a wing-shaped boring, and the handle is gilded. It is brilliant yet elegant, but the blade protruding from the inside of the sword is definitely not made of metal. The texture of the blade is pure white and simple, like bone material such as ivory.
This bone-like thin blade doesn't look sharp at all. However, Hongye's current demeanor, as if facing a formidable enemy, was something Zhou Yu had never seen before.
Antiy approached gracefully.
She lowered her eyes, lowered her neck, raised her arms, raised her bare feet lightly, and her whole body rotated, and her skirt covered with crystal drops bloomed like a morning glory.
In an instant, a white arc flashed on the flower.
Almost at the same time, the cyan light crossed the table and struck with the white arc, making a sound like broken ice.
Anti spun. Every part of her hands, arms, feet, legs, waist, and hips were spinning and dancing proudly. The white arc flashing from the bone sword blade in her hand was like a ribbon wrapped around a dancer, twisting and flying softly.
Ribbons were flying and the banquet table was torn apart. The dancer's naked toes stepped on the broken porcelain pieces, still spinning passionately and wildly. Her exposed skin began to shed sweat and glowed with oil. The high-intensity movements are enough to exhaust even the best dancers within a minute. But "Anti" danced tirelessly, and the hot and wet sweat continued to splash to the ground, blending with the blood stains on the ceramic shards.
The wild, sensational, whip-like spinning dance made the arc of the bone sword resemble thunderous whips, violently lashing out at everything around her.
However, even such a crazy and desperate state never made the opponent take a step back.
Hongye stood there quietly. Facing the white light surrounding her, she just held the green sword upside down with her right hand and carried it behind her back. The steady posture was quite similar to the starting position of the Tai Chi Sword.
This is really a strange phenomenon that cannot be explained. In the swords raised by the dancers, green light pierces out one after another, sometimes horizontally, sometimes intercepting, sometimes pointing, or blocking. Compared with its opponent, Hongye was as still as a solitary peak. The speed difference between the two is clearly discernible with the naked eye.
However, the red leaves still stood there, calm and intact. Her fair and smooth skin, her long hair tied up in bunches, and her simple and plain clothes are all clearly intact.
Ding——ding——ding——
The sword blades struck each other, and the echo was like the sound of a chime or the ringing of a bell. In the white rain of light, the vertical and horizontal green swords shuttle like dragons.
For such an extremely simple movement, it would be too reluctant to call it "swordsmanship". That is a "method" that is completely beyond Zhou Yu's cognition.
It was only at this moment, after witnessing the "swordsmanship" from the perspective of a bystander, that Zhou Yu finally understood the reason why he was defeated by Hongye that night. Her straightforward sword movement was neither swift nor fierce, but it was absolutely inescapable. Anyone who tries to attack her will definitely be seen through and counterattacked.
There must be some reason for this. If you cannot crack the principle, you will definitely not be able to win head-on.
The sword blades struck each other, making a clanging sound. The dancers' sweat and blood covered the ground.
Her powerful dance like a beast finally showed signs of decline after the sword fight lasted for more than ten minutes.
At this point, the outcome is very clear.
The only sound left in the banquet hall was the sound of the battle. Fascinated by the strange duel that was not of this world, Zhou Yu forgot everything around him, and all he could do was wait with all his heart.
Every minute and every second, the passing time is getting closer to the end of the battle.
Despite this, Hongye seems to be in no rush to win. No matter how sluggish Ondy's dance is, the green sword always waits still, until the moment when the white arc strikes, it will stab out cleanly.
Whether this was Hongye's own wish or due to the characteristics of his "swordsmanship", Zhou Yu could not judge.
Just when he thought the sword fight was going to continue, Hongye took a step forward.
The green front formed by the dim light simply thrust forward. Anti's blood-stained feet stood on tiptoe again and jumped back. The distance between the two of them in an instant was enough for her to avoid the edge of the sword.
Then, the tangible and insubstantial blade of light suddenly emitted a green "glow" from the top.
The hazy and sharp green light, nearly a foot long, penetrated the dancer's chest mercilessly the moment it shot out.
Anti was still jumping back, and the green light came out of her body.
Her eyes were wide open, but there was no surprise or confusion, just a confused silence, and her arms were spread out to the sides like a ballet. The curvaceous body fell backward quietly and obediently. Even the muffled sound made when the body came into contact with the ground seemed unusually slight.
Hongye maintained the thrusting posture and did not move for a long time.
Snap, snap, snap.
Orsl began to clap softly and she lowered her arms.
The green light dissipated from her hands.
"My little master, it is unforgettable." Osier said, "The sword of the saint in the Red Country, your father once hated it with gnashing teeth. However, even he has to admit that it suits you very well."
Hongye didn't respond. She walked over to the body and gently took the hilt of the sword from Onti's hand.
"Osir, now I take back the second sword you hold. Do you have any objection?"
As if being suddenly eroded by hundreds of years, Jinyi's bone sword quickly rusted and faded in Hongye's hands. Dark traces of decay appeared on the bone blade.
At this time, Auster raised his hand lazily and said, "Wait a minute. I thought this matter still needs to be discussed."
"Do you still want to hold it?"
"No, of course not. What use is this thing to me? However, if you grant my request, I am willing to give it to others."
He slowly looked around the banquet hall, and finally, his eyes fell on Zhou Yu.
As if he had come up with a great idea, he grinned, then pointed at Zhou Yu and said, "I request that the second sword be given to this lady."
