Chapter 138 Not Expensive Not Expensive
Yue Buqun was stunned when he heard this and asked, "Can I learn it?"
Xin Zhen smiled and said, "The Sword Sect and the Qi Sect are brothers, there is nothing we can't learn, but I also have conditions."
Yue Buqun looked at Xin Zhen and nodded, "Junior Brother Xin, go ahead."
Xin Zhen smiled and said, "You can ask all your disciples to come here to learn sword skills. They can have more exchanges and strengthen their relationship. Of course, they can learn any sword skills of the sword sect as long as they are willing to learn."
Yue Buqun frowned and asked, "Brother Xin, are you planning to annex my Qi Sect so soon?"
Xin Zhen laughed when he heard this and said, "I just want to ask Senior Brother Yue, what is there in Qi Sect that is worth my attention?
Dozens of disciples? The dilapidated Huashan Sect? The declining reputation of the Huashan Sect? Or the pitiful tribute of a few hundred taels every month? "
With every word Xin Zhen spoke, Yue Buqun's face grew darker.
Xin Zhen shook his head and said, "Brother Yue, don't blame me for speaking harshly. If I tell you the truth, we won't have to be suspicious of each other.
There is actually nothing worth coveting between the Qi Sect and my Sword Sect. On the contrary, you, the Qi Sect, are getting to learn so many superior skills from my Sword Sect, and you are the ones who are getting a great advantage.
Oh, is it because Senior Brother Yue thinks there is no such big pie in the world that he doubts my intentions?"
Yue Buqun had an embarrassed look on his face.
Xin Zhen nodded and said, "This is my problem. How about this, Senior Brother Yue, for every year you teach in the Sword Sect, you will be allowed to learn one sword technique, and you will not be given teaching fees. Of course, when you Qi Sect disciples come here, we can provide food and accommodation, so you don't have to spend any money."
Yue Buqun got anxious when he heard this: "Hey, Brother Xin, this is not right. Why did the conditions we agreed on change?"
Xin Zhen said, "Then follow the original plan. You will be given the tuition, but you are not allowed to secretly learn the sword techniques of the Sword Sect. If I find out, I will follow the rules of the martial arts world."
Yue Buqun suddenly said with a bitter face: "Junior Brother Xin..."
Xin Zhen smiled and said, "That's it. If you want to learn swordsmanship, I'll give you free lessons. If you want tuition, you don't have to learn swordsmanship. It's up to you, Senior Brother Yue."
Yue Buqun sighed and said, "Blame me, blame me. I'd better learn swordsmanship."
Xin Zhen laughed out loud, "Good, ha, I saved... wow, nearly ten thousand taels of silver."
Yue Buqun sighed.
Xin Zhen smiled and said, "Brother, don't feel that you are at a disadvantage. Do you know how much Taoist Tianmen paid to buy the Wu Dafu Sword from me?"
Yue Buqun was surprised and asked, "Isn't the Wu Dafu Sword Taishan's sword technique? Why did I buy it from you?"
Xin Zhen smiled and said, "What they have is missing too much. What I have is the complete version, and it has been improved by me. It is at least half a level higher than the original Taishan Sword Technique. Do you think it is expensive to spend 50,000 taels to buy the sect's sword technique?"
Yue Buqun thought for a moment and nodded, "It is indeed not expensive."
Xin Zhen smiled and said, "You spent less than 10,000 taels of silver and learned the Spring Breeze Sword Technique, which is one level higher than the Yangwu Sword Technique. Tell me whether it's worth it or not?"
Yue Buqun sighed and said, "It's totally worth it!"
It's just that he could have paid nothing, received tens of thousands of taels of silver as teaching fees, and learned any sword technique or secret manual, but now he has to teach for a whole year to learn just one sword technique... What a mouthful! Xin Zhen laughed, knowing that Yue Buqun felt aggrieved, but for such a suspicious person, he had to use this method to deal with him, so that he would feel that he had no conspiracy or intrigue.
Xin Zhen took out a sword manual from his bosom and handed it to Yue Buqun, saying: "Brother Yue, this is this year's teaching fee. It can be regarded as an advance payment to you. You must study hard. If you don't, you won't be employed next year."
Yue Buqun forced a smile and took the sword manual.
Xin Zhen left with a smile.
Yue Buqun put his hands behind his back and looked at the vast mountains. He sighed, then opened the sword manual and flipped through it. He stayed there until sunset. It was not until Ning Zhongze came up to him that he woke up.
Ning Zhongze was surprised to see Yue Buqun's absent-minded look and asked, "What happened?"
Yue Buqun rubbed his face with his hands, then passed the Spring Breeze Sword Technique to Ning Zhongze.
Ning Zhongze also flipped through it and was immediately shocked. Yue Buqun quickly reminded him: "Let's go back first."
Ning Zhongze made a few "oh" sounds and took his disciples back to Huashan Sect before night fell.
Yue Buqun brought Ning Zhongze back to his private room. Ning Zhongze immediately grabbed Yue Buqun's hand and said, "Brother, how did you get this Spring Breeze Sword Technique?"
Yue Buqun looked at Ning Zhongze's expression and quickly said, "Junior sister, don't worry, I didn't steal it. Junior brother Xin gave it to me."
Yue Buqun quickly explained Xin Zhen's conditions, but omitted the part where he questioned Xin Zhen. He thought Ning Zhongze would regret the tens of thousands of silver taels. Unexpectedly, Ning Zhongze was overjoyed and said, "So that's how it is. After teaching for a year, you can get a superior sword technique that is better than Yangwu's sword technique. This kind of business is very easy to do!"
Yue Buqun was speechless.
Ning Zhongze hurriedly asked, "Brother, have you finished reading this sword manual? Is it really better than Yang Wu's swordsmanship?"
Yue Buqun nodded and said, "I have read it. It is indeed one of the top sword techniques in the martial arts world. Any sect that can obtain such a sword technique will be able to stand firm in the martial arts world."
Ning Zhongze was a little surprised when she heard this. She knew that her husband would not speak nonsense. If he said so, it must be true.
Ning Zhongze hesitated and said, "This Junior Brother Xin is so generous, is he hiding some...scheming?"
Yue Buqun smiled bitterly when he heard this, but his expression remained calm as he said, "Junior Brother Xin is a master of swordsmanship. Perhaps he doesn't think the Spring Breeze Swordsmanship is that important. After all, he created seven parts at once. This is different from the one passed down by our ancestors, which we protect as a treasure."
Ning Zhongze thought that this was true when he heard it. He heard that all kinds of tributes were precious, and even high-ranking officials had to wait for the emperor's reward, but for the emperor, it was probably just like that.
Due to different personal strengths, the value of things will be viewed differently.
Ning Zhongze said with emotion: "Brother, what do you think of our Junior Brother Xin's swordsmanship? How advanced is his swordsmanship?"
Yue Buqun looked at the Spring Breeze Sword Technique in his hand, smiled bitterly and said: "I'm afraid... he is already the best in the world, right?"
Ning Zhongze fell silent upon hearing this. For the couple, the sword manuals they had learned were their limit. Yangwu Sword Skill and Lady Sword Skill were the upper limit of their sword skills attainments. However, the Spring Breeze Sword Skill that Xin Zhen had casually created was one step higher than Yangwu Sword Skill.
You should know that the level of the sword technique created does not mean that the creator has only that level. It is just like writing an article. If you have 100% talent and can actually write an article with 60% of it, it is quite amazing!
It was conceivable that Junior Brother Xin's attainments in swordsmanship had already reached a level that was difficult for them to understand!
