Qi Bupo? (1)

Don't say I'm taking advantage of you guys. I will find someone to witness, so you know that what just happened was just by chance!!"..."I see... Then let's wait, my cousin has a bit of a sluggish min...Chapter 499: Qi Bupo 1

"This isn't a good idea, you're someone with status!" said Xianyao.

"What kind of status Don’t interrupt me. I have some questions for you," Thunder Phoenix said.

"What kind of questions" replied Xianyao nonchalantly, but he was aware that Thunder Phoenix probably had something to ask him and didn't know how she came up with the idea of asking him.

"You taught some sword techniques to Black Tortoise Lingxiao. She has made rapid progress in her swordsmanship, which I can’t keep up with. I think you also know gun techniques; could you teach me as well" Thunder Phoenix asked with a smile.

"Just read the books," Xianyao replied offhandedly. He didn't want to help Thunder Phoenix without reason and their relationship wasn’t that close either.

"What kind of books should I look at" Thunder Phoenix persisted, even more eagerly; what he said suggested she could really get his help.

Looking at Thunder Phoenix with a frown, Xianyao said impatiently: "Yang Family Gun Technique, Chasing Moon Gun Technique... Iron Lock Over the River..."

"Iron Lock Over the River" Thunder Phoenix was puzzled. She had recorded everything else; these were gun techniques she planned to read once she returned home. But why did he mention ‘Iron Lock Over the River’ This wasn’t a gun technique but just one sword technique used to force opponents into corners.

"Yes, this move will be very useful for you. If you can understand it, it’ll improve your gun techniques," replied Xianyao.

Thunder Phoenix was silent; his words didn’t enlighten her as she had already been told by someone that her gun technique was too aggressive and lacked changes between the real and illusory aspects. Of course, this only meant adding a few changes without changing her style; it simply added some flexibility to complement her rigidity.

However, while saying this may be easy, Thunder Phoenix knew how difficult understanding it was. This was what she needed right now.

In fact, Xianyao had given her an opportunity to understand the concept; once she saw those martial arts he mentioned, she would have a vivid idea of what they were about and could easily understand them.

This was one thing that set him apart from others. He used things to give people ideas, then provided chances for them to understand them.

Lonely Star had been trained this way; now the Misses and Silver Screen also were. Actually, Bell would have had such an opportunity but she didn’t believe Xianyao could teach her, so she missed many opportunities.

Xianyao might not become the strongest person but he certainly can be the best mentor!

"Brother, are you trying to trick people" asked Bell curiously. She thought Xianyao was fooling this beautiful sister and now she had already got confused; he was such a bad brother.

"No, there’s no need for me to trick anyone," replied Xianyao casually before heading toward the city wall, looking at the ceremony down below. It seemed that most people were gathered by now.

"Xianyao, where are you right now Are you in the Luo Family residence Then I’ll stay there tonight too," Thunder Phoenix said. She didn’t intend to like Xianyao; she would start learning about the martial arts he mentioned that night and might need to ask him then.

Regardless of the reason, it was good for the Luo Family if Thunder Phoenix stayed here; it meant at least some relationship existed between her family and the Luo Family. Even if this were just her personal wish, she was a very important person in the Thunder Phoenix Clan who everyone knew about.

The others also felt surprised that no one expected Thunder Phoenix to do so and get close to such a youngster. What kind of charm did he have

"I’m staying at the palace right now; I can’t entertain you," Xianyao refused.

“Ah”

This kid rejected her Did he know who she was, an important figure in the Thunder Phoenix Clan Even if the Luo Family had become a royal family, it would be a great fortune to establish relations with them. And even if they were at par with the Thunder Phoenix Clan, they needed to maintain good relations because might and ties were both key for survival.

"You can’t reject me so easily; you’re not from the Black Tortoise Family now, we’re no longer enemies. Remember that you are part of the Luo Family now and that our clans have an alliance," Thunder Phoenix said. She was used to Xianyao’s attitude but it had been because he belonged to the Black Tortoise Clan before. Now things were different.

"I know, I really can’t entertain you right now, but you’re welcome to look for me," Xianyao replied.

“That works too then. What’s going on with you” Thunder Phoenix asked while smiling; she seemed casual but was actually very interested. It must be more important than what I thought; let me see what it is.

"I’m waiting for someone to wake up..." Xianyao replied offhandedly.

“Who”

Waiting for someone to wake up What’s the big deal with that, does she think I don’t even matter as much as a good night's sleep She should see who this person is.

"If you don't know her, then it's not important. Anyway, if she doesn't wake up, you can find me; and even after she wakes up, you still can come to find me," Xianyao replied.

"Then what else is there" Zhuque Lei was a bit confused. If that’s the case, then why did you just say all those things

"Didn’t I say I’m waiting for her to wake up Although there isn't anything happening in between, but I still have to wait because she will definitely scold me if she wakes up and finds out. I can't afford that," Xianyao replied.

"Who is she, more important than me" Zhuque Lei asked.

"Aren’t you inviting humiliation by saying this Even though her status isn’t higher than yours, in my opinion, she’s much more important than you," Xianyao casually replied. These words made everyone nearby shock, is that how you talk to Lady Zhuque Don't you want to die

Those who knew Zhuque Lei understood very well that she had a short fuse and nobody practicing the Phoenix Divine Skill would have a small temper. This was also one of the characteristics of the Phoenix Family.

"You still haven’t told me who she is," Zhuque Lei didn't flare up, which made everyone even more confused. Could this be calm before the storm

"Her I don’t know either..." Xianyao replied.

"Boy, are you playing with me!" Zhuque Lei was angry.

"Nope... It seems like things are starting below. Let’s talk about it later..."

...

Despite being irked by Xianyao shifting the topic away, there wasn’t much he could do since watching the ceremony was his job.

Zhuque Lei returned to her own position. Of course, she wouldn't stand next to Xianyao. She would never greet him if not for wanting some guidance from him; and certainly not stand beside him.

Moreover, now that she represented the Phoenix Family, this spot could not be left empty.

"Big brother, you’re really awesome!" Lingling said while smiling aside.

"What" Xianyao looked down but didn’t turn his head to ask.

"You actually rejected her like that. She’s a lady with both looks and status," Lingling continued saying.

"Nothing, I’m probably used to it. We were rather antagonistic before," Xianyao smiled as he casually said.

"Antagonistic" Lingling was puzzled.

"Yeah, I used to be a servant in the Black Tortoise Family…" As Xianyao talked about his past, Lingling only then realized that there were still many stories on Xianyao’s body.

As Xianyao continued talking, the ceremony below seemed to have begun. Even though this was a low-key coronation ceremony, but it had quite a number of people attending, almost filling up the square. The current king, Luo Yunqing, now stood on a small elevated platform outside the palace gate, delivering his speech.

This was an external coronation ritual and afterwards, he would be crowned in the grand hall of the royal palace; then there wouldn’t be so many people around. But some representatives of the citizens would also enter to watch.

When it came time for him to be crowned, he should let the former king crown him. This way, the effect would be better and one could believe that the former king would definitely agree with this point now.

"Perhaps, this matter will be recorded in history books, my name might also appear," Xianyao looked down at the ceremony and felt somewhat emotional.

"You want your name to stay there You’re daydreaming!" Lingling said.

"Who knows what would happen in the future. Maybe I could become an important figure," Xianyao smiled as he casually said, but these were just jokes of his and didn’t know that a surprising development was about to occur very soon.

“Hahaha, Luo Family actually declared itself king! Is there no one who opposes this” A loud laughter appeared, making the originally festive atmosphere turn quiet. Everyone looked for where the sound came from.

No matter who it was that said this, they could be sure that this person must have come to cause trouble. Given the current situation of the Luo Family, there shouldn’t be any offended forces; could it just be an individual

“Who’s so bold... Ah…”

A few people who were trying to take credit jumped out but in a blink of an eye, they were killed off by someone. The person had yet to reveal themselves as only beams of light shot into their heads and left holes.

Xianyao could sense that this kind of light should be some sort of aura and the people who could kill with aura were estimated to have strength at mid-Sacred rank or above.
