Chapter 69
, Part 1 of the Plan
"Sister, will Duan Xuan really teach us the Hidden Wolf Hunting Technique?" Zhao Hui and his sister Zhao Zazhong were waiting in the back mountains of Shetougou.
The two hadn't been to the Broken Mountain Martial Arts School for many days, and they gave Chen Feng an unquestionable reason: to take up a temporary post.
Given that he was already marginalized, Chen Feng was well aware of this, so he didn't object at all and readily agreed.
Both siblings are martial arts practitioners with the Ming Jin skill, so they naturally found a temporary job where they could barely spare time to practice martial arts.
After waiting for a long time, the sky gradually darkened, and the autumn wind was like a bone-sweeping knife, scraping against the siblings and making them shiver.
Ming Jin is the level that ordinary people reach after passing the first threshold, but it is difficult to store more Qi and blood, and to a certain extent, it is impossible to resist the cold for a long time.
It wasn't until the sky was completely dark, with not a glimmer of light remaining, that the two sisters remained upright. One was crouching, huddled together, while the other stood ramrod straight.
"Sister, shall we go? Duan Xuan is probably just testing us to make us back down," Zhao Hui said, shivering from the cold.
"Shut up, he'll be here!" Zhao Zazhong scolded his younger brother sternly, and Zhao Hui dared not say anything more. More than an hour later, their stomachs began to rumble.
"sister……"
Zhao Hui's voice wasn't loud, but Zhao Zazhong suddenly turned his head to the side and at the same time grabbed Zhao Hui's neck and pulled him backward.
With a whoosh, a long arrow struck the spot where Zhao Hui had been standing.
"That was close!" Zhao Hui was still shaken, but Zhao Zazhong was completely different. He looked at the deep mountain where the fog was gradually rising, and carefully scanned the surrounding plants and trees with his eyes.
Suddenly, another arrow pierced the air and flew in.
"sister!"
The arrow was clearly aimed at Zhao Zazhong, but Zhao Zazhong stared intently at the arrow and the direction from which it came, without dodging.
Whoosh!
The arrow grazed past Zhao Zazhong's ear, severing a strand of hair from her ear.
In the thick darkness of the night, Duan Xuan, holding a longbow, quiver, and dagger, slowly walked out.
"You're very smart and courageous!" Duan Xuan said calmly.
"What are you doing? Why did you shoot my sister?" Although Zhao Hui was timid, he still stood up to defend Zhao the bastard.
Duan Xuan did not respond, which was tantamount to acknowledging the bastard's audacity.
Slowly unstrapping the shoulder straps and setting down the longbow, Duan Xuan took his stance in an open space.
Remember us, 101kanshu.com
He immediately lowered his waist and hips, and adopted a low horse stance, with his waist and back slightly bent, but tense like a wolf poised to pounce. Most noticeably, his ten fingers were clenched into claws.
Upon seeing this, Zhao the bastard kicked Zhao Hui and, without saying a word, immediately began to imitate him in a very convincing manner.
Zhao Hui belatedly realized what was happening, and after saying "oh" three times, he hurriedly imitated Duan Xuan's actions.
After getting into position, Duan Xuan's muscles contracted like springs. The muscles under his legs seemed relaxed, but in fact, his Achilles tendons were already taut.
The muscles in the shoulders, back, waist, and hips made a slight stretching sound, indicating that the muscles were tense throughout the movement.
In an instant, Duan Xuan sprang to his feet, leaping three zhang (approximately 10 meters) away and slamming his palm into a tree about half a person's thickness beside him.
With a thud, the tree remained motionless, yet a deep scratch resembling a wolf's claw remained on its surface.
It was dark and visibility was poor, so when the brother and sister finally got a good look, they were shocked to discover that Duan Xuan was actually holding a large piece of tree heartwood in his hand.
The tree, which was once half a person thick, has been torn apart by claws, leaving only a thin ring at the back.
Duan Xuan continued to imitate the posture of a wild wolf before battle, stretching his waist, and then he heard the previously taut fascia.
At this moment, it made a squeaking sound, as if a strong rubber band had been stretched to its limit.
The set of movements is fluid and graceful, honing not only the skills of fingertip seduction and the ability to injure and break through enemy armor.
It can also strengthen the fascia's load-bearing capacity and enhance the toughness of muscles and bones.
Zhao Hui gaped, his mouth agape: "Wow... amazing, Senior Brother Duan!"
Zhao the bastard didn't waste any words; he kept recalling Duan Xuan's actions from just now.
He knew very well that Duan Xuan had not taught him any profound techniques; it was just the basic stance training of the Canglang Hidden Hunting Technique, along with the claw frame as a bonus.
Seeing that his sister was struggling to imitate the form and spirit of the movements, Zhao Hui became somewhat anxious.
"Sister, I don't think you're practicing it the right way!" Zhao Hui glanced at Duan Xuan, who was no longer paying attention to the two of them, and said softly, "Senior Brother Duan's technique emphasizes explosive power."
Our Breaking Mountain Fist also emphasizes concentrating power at a single point to break through mountains and rivers.
Therefore, I personally believe that you can directly use the foundation of the Mountain-Breaking Stance Technique to practice the Azure Wolf Hidden Hunting Technique, which will save you a lot of trouble!
Duan Xuan tilted his head slightly.
Zhao Hui's innate talent is average, yet his comprehension is so profound.
A bold idea suddenly popped into his mind: to train Zhao Hui!
On the other side, after Zhao Hui finished speaking, he immediately began to use the Mountain-Breaking Stance Technique.
With his feet planted firmly on the ground, his blood and energy surged, and he sprinted forward with tremendous force.
However, he didn't achieve even a 30% resemblance, and Zhao the bastard became somewhat impatient.
"I understand, sister, please trust me one last time!" Zhao Hui pleaded.
He assumed the Mountain-Breaking Fist stance once more. This time, however, he contracted all his fascia, tensed his muscles and bones, and bound them together.
Most importantly, his back straightened out, and his fists were no longer clenched.
Instead, it awkwardly adopted a wolf claw stance, and stomped down again, leaving two clear footprints.
But he pounced on the tree that Duan Xuan had just hit, like a little wolf.
Because his strength was only at the Ming Jin level, he had already shortened the distance by more than half before he even jumped.
But this did not delay his claw strike. The power was reduced, and the tree stump, which was less than half a fist wide, snapped in two!
boom!
A large tree fell, and dust flew everywhere.
A hint of surprise appeared on Duan Xuan's usually calm face.
The same goes for Zhao Zazhong; he seems to have never noticed his younger brother's talent—his ability to learn things so quickly.
After a month of consuming large amounts of meat, Duan Xuan's physique and height had become remarkably similar to Zhao Hui's.
The plan that had just popped into his mind began to spread rapidly.
……
A month later.
In the back mountain, Duan Xuan demonstrated the second level of the Azure Wolf Concealing Hunting Technique, the Cold Wolf Concealing Step, once again.
Zhao Hui, a night owl, observed Duan Xuan's every move and every detail with eyes as meticulous as a recorder.
"Congratulations on your breakthrough to the Dark Force realm!" Duan Xuan took out two packets of Qi and Blood Powder: "These are a gift from Lord Black Wolf."
Zhao the bastard squinted at Duan Xuan.
"Thank you, thank you... Wait, Black Wolf?" Zhao Hui's voice suddenly rose.
Who is Black Wolf? Although the two had never met him, his legend was circulating throughout Yellow Snake County.
He slew several people in the deep mountains and treacherous terrain, slaughtered three hundred villains in Yinfeng Gully, and rescued the disciples of five major martial arts schools from danger.
The casual destruction of the Scaled Python Double Red Flower in Peach Blossom Lane, and the hunting process recently exposed by Zheng Huaizhen, the top scorer in the martial arts examination.
The Black Wolf hunter successfully hunted down the only sable on the entire mountain and escaped unscathed.
These are all versions circulating in storytelling halls, and they have spread throughout Huangshe County.
Everyone felt that there was a mixture of truth and falsehood in the story.
Only those who have experienced it firsthand truly know that it couldn't be more real.
The reason Duan Xuan brought up Black Wolf was because he found that Zhao Zazhong had become somewhat arrogant after recently learning the Canglang Hidden Hunting Technique.
Unlike his brother, he had a very strong independent mind and a clear purpose.
That's why the person Duan Xuan wanted to cultivate from the very beginning was not Zhao the bastard who was incredibly resolute in doing certain things.
Instead, it was that soft, weak, and seemingly harmless Zhao Hui!
However, Duan Xuan needs the two of them to complete his plan, so he must completely control them.
The most effective way is undoubtedly to use someone with great fame and power to suppress it.
This way, one can conceal their true strength while also instilling fear in others!
"Yes, it's Black Wolf!"
The two hadn't been to the Broken Mountain Martial Arts School for many days, and they gave Chen Feng an unquestionable reason: to take up a temporary post.
