Chapter 29 - 29 29 The Second Move of Asura Sword Technique
29: Chapter 29: The Second Move of Asura Sword Technique 29: Chapter 29: The Second Move of Asura Sword Technique It wasn’t until Huang Xiaolong had been in the Xu Kai Great Hall for a long time that the hall still remained silent, with no one daring to speak.
“Dad, what do you think?” After a long while, Huang Ming looked at Huang Qide’s expression and said softly.
Huang Qide looked up and sighed, then waved his hand, “Disperse, all of you.
This year’s meeting is concluded.” Having said that, he turned and left, his figure slightly hunched and forlorn.
The meeting was concluded!
The elders, stewards, and disciples of the Huang Family Manor looked at each other in dismay.
“All be gone!” Huang Ming waved his hand after Huang Qide’s figure had disappeared, and then, with the support of Elder Zhou Guang and others, he left.
After a while, the elders, stewards, and disciples of the Huang Family Manor dispersed one after another.
This was the first time in the history of the Huang Family Manor that the annual meeting ended prematurely.
After leaving the front hall, Huang Xiaolong returned to his small courtyard.
Not long after he had arrived, Huang Peng and Su Yan came over.
Seeing his parents, Huang Xiaolong knew they had many questions in their minds, and without waiting for Huang Peng and Su Yan to speak, Huang Xiaolong pondered aloud, “Dad, Mom, I know you want to ask me about the breakthrough to the fourth stage, but there are some things I cannot explain to you right now.”
Huang Peng and Su Yan looked at each other.
“Xiao Long, that…
that Elder Fei Hou, who is he?” After hesitating for a moment, Huang Peng asked.
Elder Fei Hou?
Huang Xiaolong thought for a moment and said, “I have taken an extraordinary person as my master, and Fei Hou is a subordinate of my master; thus, he calls me Young Master.”
At least Huang Xiaolong did not mention anything about his master Ren Wokuang and the Asura Sect.
It finally dawned on Huang Peng and Su Yan, and they were overjoyed, not expecting their son to have an extraordinary person as his master.
If Fei Hou was a peak of Tenth-Order Late Stage expert, what about their son’s master?!
At this thought, both of them were incredibly excited.
“Xiao Long, your current strength, have you reached the middle stage of the fourth stage?” Then, Su Yan asked and both she and Huang Peng looked at their son with hopeful eyes.
At the meeting, Huang Xiaolong had said that being at the early stage of the fourth stage was only a part of his strength.
“Middle stage of the fourth stage?” Huang Xiaolong was surprised for a moment, but ultimately nodded, tacitly acknowledging this level of strength since the peak of the fifth-stage late stage was too astonishing.
Seeing their son admit to the strength of the middle stage of the fourth stage, Huang Peng and Su Yan were overjoyed, but even more so, they were shocked.
Actually reaching the middle stage of the fourth stage!
“Dad, Mom, after the New Year, I plan to leave the Huang Family Manor to gain experience outside!” Huang Xiaolong said contemplatively.
“What?
Gain experience?!” Huang Peng and Su Yan were both shocked and almost simultaneously exclaimed, “No way!”
Huang Xiaolong spoke up, “I know what you’re worried about, but with Fei Hou around, I won’t be in any danger.”
“Xiao Long, your grandpa…
Dad knows you now wish to leave the Huang Family Manor because of your grandpa’s actions, but after all, he is your grandpa.
Don’t hold a grudge against him in your heart.
Also, you’re still too young.
How about waiting two more years before you go out to gain experience?” Huang Peng spoke to Huang Xiaolong with a negotiating tone.
Although there was a Tenth Order expert with Huang Xiaolong, he was still too young, not yet nine years old, so Huang Peng and Su Yan were truly anxious about letting their son go out to gain experience now!
“Alright, Dad, Mom, I’ve already decided.
I’ll leave after the New Year,” Huang Xiaolong shook his head firmly, his eyes resolute.
He admitted that part of him wanted to leave the Huang Family Manor so as not to see his grandfather Huang Qide and his uncle Huang Ming, but his desire to leave and gain experience was not solely because of them.
He wished to temper himself through experience, to become stronger, and he was eager to see the broader world beyond the Huang Family Manor and encounter even more powerful individuals.
Huang Peng and Su Yan saw the resolute look in their son’s eyes, sighed in their hearts, and knew that persuading their son any further would be futile.
Thinking of her son soon leaving her side, Su Yan’s heart softened, and her eyes turned red, “Xiao Long, when will you come back this time when you leave?”
Huang Xiaolong’s heart warmed, and he smiled, “Mom, don’t worry, I will definitely come back to see you before the next annual meeting.”
“The next annual meeting?” Su Yan felt slightly better at these words; then, she babbled at Huang Xiaolong about many things, such as taking care of his health when outside, being wary of treacherous people, and not getting into pointless fights with others.
Huang Xiaolong could only nod helplessly, acknowledging her concerns.
Over two hours later, Huang Peng and Su Yan finally left the small courtyard.
“Fei Hou, once the New Year is over, in a couple of days, we will leave.
See if there’s anything that needs to be prepared,” Huang Xiaolong instructed Fei Hou after his parents had left.
“Yes, Young Master!”
A quiet night passed by.
On the Cold Jade Bed, Huang Xiaolong stopped cultivating the Asura Technique and, seeing the sky begin to brighten outside, stepped out of his room and into the small courtyard, where he practiced Hell’s Wind for a while.
“Hell’s Wind has now reached a great degree of mastery.
All that’s left now is to increase my Fighting Energy Cultivation.
Next, I’ll start practicing the second move of the Asura Sword Technique,” Huang Xiaolong thought to himself after an hour, having stopped the Hell’s Wind practice.
Huang Xiaolong took out that piece of parchment and looked at the small diagram for the second move of the Asura Sword Technique.
Asura Sword Technique’s second move: Shura’s Tears.
Shura’s Tears?
The name of the move was quite unique.
Huang Xiaolong reviewed the internal route for Fighting Energy and attacking posture several times until he had fully memorized them.
Then, he stored the parchment in the Asura Ring, and the Shura Blade appeared in his hands without warning.
He soared into the sky and struck out, sending a series of Blade Lights falling steadily from the air, much like tears falling from the sky.
The first move of Asura Sword Technique, Hell’s Wind, could be performed while standing on the ground, whereas the second move, Shura’s Tears, had to be executed in mid-air.
After the strike, Huang Xiaolong floated down from the air and stood firm, contemplating the attack’s posture in comparison to that on the parchment.
Half an hour later, he rose into the air again and struck out once more.
This time, the Blade Light became even softer, seemingly devoid of any strength, like the finest, most gentle drizzle.
Another half-hour passed, and Huang Xiaolong made his move again.
Just like when he first started practising Hell’s Wind, Huang Xiaolong always took his time to reflect for half an hour before attempting the next move.
As Huang Xiaolong continued his cultivation, the sky gradually darkened.
After another attempt, Huang Xiaolong floated down to stand in the courtyard, shaking his head.
Despite a day of practice, the power of the second move, Shura’s Tears, had improved significantly from the start, but it still hadn’t reached even minor success.
According to the parchment, the move would achieve minor success once there was a sound like Asura crying from the Blade Light Tears after an attack.
While Huang Xiaolong was cultivating, Fei Hou stood guard outside the small courtyard.
In fact, both the Asura Sword Technique and the other set, Asura Ghost Claw, could only be cultivated by someone who had practiced the Asura Technique, so Huang Xiaolong was not worried about Fei Hou or anyone else learning it secretly.
Not long after Huang Xiaolong had stopped cultivating, suddenly, footsteps sounded from outside the courtyard.
Huang Xiaolong looked out and saw that it was none other than his grandfather Huang Qide, his eldest uncle Huang Ming, and also his father, Huang Peng.
Huang Xiaolong’s brows furrowed.
What do you think?
