Chapter 141: Is it necessary for us, with our relationship, to be so distant?

In the courtyard, Zheng Tianyi lifted a wine jar with one hand, tilted his head back, and poured the wine. In a moment, only half of the wine in the jar remained.

Reluctantly, he stopped and wiped the wine stains from his mouth, exclaiming, “Delicious.”

This kind of strong liquor is undoubtedly the best in the world!

Second brother also stood not far away, holding a narrow-bladed sword, looking somewhat at a loss.

Until Zheng Tianyi put away the wine jar and asked, “How is the comprehension of the third level of ‘Heavenly Astral Essence Slash’?”

The younger brother replied, “Although I haven’t mastered its essentials, I can barely perform it.”

Zhen Tianyi raised an eyebrow, made a gesture with his right hand, and the branches in the courtyard snapped off and fell into his hand.

“Attack me with your sword, don’t hold back.”

Upon hearing this, a hint of hesitation crossed the younger brother’s eyes.

But just this slight hesitation was rebuked by Zhen Tianyi, “You are a martial artist who uses a sword. What’s with all the hesitation like a child! If you don’t even have the courage to attack me, how do you expect to reach higher levels?! Sword emphasizes technique and momentum. If you don’t have the ambition to cut through everything, it’s better to change your weapon as soon as possible.”

At Zhen Tianyi’s words, the hesitation in the younger brother’s eyes disappeared. He held the narrow-edged sword tightly in his right hand, ready to go.

Seeing this, Zhen Tianyi sneered, “Attack!”

“Alright!”

Qin Feng watched the scene in the courtyard and sighed in his heart. A great teacher produces excellent disciples, truly living up to the saying passed down through the generations.

Although he could teach his younger brother martial arts moves, he couldn’t impart the crucial understanding of the Divine Martial Art and the Intent.

Being able to receive guidance from the Divine General was also considered good fortune for his younger brother.

“But just this is not enough. The Divine General cannot stay in Jinyang City for a long time; there will be a day when he leaves. At that time, who should my younger brother turn to for guidance?”

“Only when the master-disciple relationship between the two is truly established can I feel at ease.”

Qin Feng lowered his head in contemplation, turned to look to the side, and saw Black Charcoal Head completely focused on the courtyard.

Although Zhen Tianyi was instructing his younger brother in sword techniques, the spirit and intention of Divine Martial can be used universally in many situations, explaining Black Charcoal Head’s serious demeanor.

Qin Feng didn’t disturb them and chose to leave silently.

As he turned a corner, he felt a dazzling whiteness in front of him.

Looking closely, Yu Mei was standing with her arms crossed, leaning against the wall in silence.

The opening of the green dress revealed her smooth and fair left leg like white jade.

This was too hard to handle.

Qin Feng dared not look more and bowed respectfully, “Senior Yu Mei.”

The woman in the green dress spoke with a cold voice, “There have been many Heaven’s Chosen talents from the Great Family who wanted to ask Zhen Tianyi to teach them how to use the sword, but in the end they all failed. You actually found a way, using fine wine as a favor.”

Seeing this scene, she muttered to herself, “If you take a disciple, you will have concerns. If you have concerns, you can’t be unrestrained anymore.

At that time, how can you refuse me with this excuse?”

“Senior Yu, as a Thirty-Six Star, should be able to understand my meaning. I just don’t know if she will take the bait and stand on the same side as me.

Women in love are blind, as long as she likes Senior Mad Blade, she should take some action.”

“I can use my wine to entice Senior Mad Blade first. If Senior Yu takes action later, there will be more certainty.

But, younger brother, you have to show some effort. If your talent in swordsmanship is too poor, Senior Mad Blade will not be impressed. Then all my efforts will be in vain.” Walking in the mansion, Qin Feng kept thinking, feeling that he was doing a good job as an elder brother.

Just then, he saw a group of people gathered at the gate of the Qin Mansion.

“Are you leaving?” Qin Feng asked curiously.

Wang Xu nodded, “Originally, we planned to stay for a while longer, but the auction at the Gathering Treasure Pavilion is about to begin, and the young master needs to go back early to prepare.”

Qin Feng understood everything. He looked at the figure dressed in white, disguised as a man—Ya’an. The injury on her right arm had already healed, and there was indeed no need for her to stay here any longer.

“Every feast must come to an end. I wish Brother Ya’an a safe journey,” Qin Feng said. As he spoke, he opened his arms, as if to give her a hug.

Seeing this, Ya’an quickly stepped back, a hint of embarrassment in her eyes, and she sternly said, “What are you trying to do?!”

“Expressing my sincerity for you? Do we, Brother Ya’an and I, need to be so distant given our relationship?” Qin Feng said while taking another step forward.

Wang Xu and the others raised their hands, wanting to speak but hesitating.

The maids on the side were both nervous and expectant.

Seeing the two getting closer, Ya’an, quick-witted, found a reasonable excuse.

“Hold on! A gentleman’s friendship is as light as water. The bond between us can be kept in our hearts; there’s no need to show it on the surface!”

“Well said.” Qin Feng remained calm on the surface, but internally, he thought it was a pity.

He originally wanted to see if her mind was broad enough.

As the crowd left the Qin residence, Ya’an looked at Qin Feng bidding farewell, feeling a subtle reluctance in his heart.

“I will remember the life-saving grace you gave me back then. There will be a day when I will repay it. Until we meet again.”

“Until we meet again.”

The group mounted their horses, and Ya’an looked deeply at Qin Feng before raising the reins.

Only the sound of horses neighing and hooves echoed as the group gradually moved away.

Qin Feng didn’t feel too sentimental. His encounter with the other person was due to an accident.

Moreover, they still had cooperation to carry out, and they would undoubtedly meet again in the future; it was just a matter of time.

“I saved your life, and I haven’t asked for your reward yet. But since ancient times, repaying a favor is the hardest. The young master of the Gathering Treasure Pavilion in Yulin City, just wait for me to slowly take advantage of you.” Qin Feng raised an eyebrow and stepped back into the Qin residence.
