*SWISH! SWISH!*
His figure moved like a gust of wind as he ran across the courtyard. His figure flickered here and there in the courtyard, showing his unusual speed.
After a while, Jia Hao paused his steps and evaluated his technique.
' Hmm, the agility of the Fading Moon Step is great. However, I am making a lot of noise as I am running on my feet. There should be no noise while using this technique.'
Since he absorbed the technique directly from the Moonlight Rapist, all Jia Hao needed to do was to get accustomed to that technique.
Thanks to the Fading Moon Steps and disguise techniques, The Moonlight Rapist managed to evade the martial community and the authorities for far too long.
It was because the Fading Moon Step is both a powerful movement technique and a concealment technique. No sounds, no leakage of aura, perfect for assassins and criminals.
Jia Hao pondered for a moment before adjusting his technique. After that, he took out the Thousand Tempered Greatsword and began his sprinting.
After a while, Old Yang entered the courtyard as he wanted to meet Jia Hao. However, he was stunned when he saw Jia Hao's movement while holding the greatsword.
" Haah! Haah!"
Jia Hao kept swinging the greatsword while using the Fading Moon Steps, making his body more flexible and movement more refined.
Pausing his steps, he noticed Old Yang and smiled at him.
" Your movement technique is amazing, Young Lord." Old Yang couldn't help but praise. " But I don't think it's Cai Family's Sliding Water Footwork?"
" Haha, Indeed, It's not." Jia Hao didn't hide anything. " This technique was used by the Moonlight Rapist. I took the technique from him and learned by myself."
" No wonder why no one could catch him." Old Yang sighed. " However, To think you learned so much in less than a month."
" Well, am I not a genius?" Jia Hao grinned. " Anyway, Come here and see this."
Old Yang walked to Jia Hao and held the greatsword. Lifting it up, he couldn't help but praise.
" Haha! Such a good sword! It might be even better than mine!"
" Try injecting your internal qi."
Old Yang heard Jia Hao and nodded. Suddenly, his expression changed as he waved the sword. Focusing on his power, Old Yang gave a thrust.
" HAAAH!"
*SWIISSHH!*
" However, we have equipments of only two thousand soldiers. The rest were sold during the financial crisis."
" But now, As Patriarch Cai ordered, we are going to use our iron ores to exchange armors from the capital city."
" No need for that. Don't we have blacksmiths in our smithies?" Jia Hao rolled his eyes.
" Well, they are...But..."
" Ask them to meet me. I am going to talk with them." Jia Hao replied. " To improve, The Cai Family has to become self sustained. The more we become less dependent on others, the better it will be."
Old Yang understood Jia Hao's reasoning as he nodded. " I shall call the blacksmiths by today's evening."
" Very well." Jia Hao nodded.
" However, before you go, Why not have a spar with me?"
Old Yang was surprised when he heard Jia Hao's request. However, he nodded with a smile.
" It will be my pleasure, Young Lord."
Not long after, Jia Hao was lying on the ground, with various bruises on his body.
' Fuck! Old Yang didn't show any mercy.' Jia Hao laughed inwardly.
He used a real sword while Old Yang used an wooden sword. However, he didn't held back like Cai Yunhai.
Old Yang's cultivation already reached Half step Innate Master Realm. All he need is a push to make him advance forward. However, such chances are rare, maing a lot of people unable to reach the Innate Master Realm in their lifetime.
" Young Lord, Are you alright?"
Jia Hao got up and saw it was none other than Minmin. " Eh, I am good. Just prepare some warm water for me. I will take a bath."
" Yes, Young Lord."
Minmin helped him to get up and take him back to his room. After a while, two maids came and poured warm water into the bathtub.
" Heh, You already became the headmaid of this house, yeah?" Jia Hao couldn't help but tease her.
" Not really." Minmin sighed. " The one with most power is Steward Liu, below him is Miss Ching, who is the head maid of Lady Li."
" But I have to admit, after Young Miss got married, my power increased."
Jia Hao walked into the bathroom but saw Minmin following him inside.
" What? Are you going to take bath with me?" Jia Hao raised his brows
