Chapter Eighty-six: Choosing Sword Techniques

  The few people standing in front of him, Wei Hong's face sank, and he said lightly: "Is there something?"

  "Little one, where is Wei Fa?" A young man in yellow clothes stepped forward and said coldly to Wei Hong.

  "Idiot." Wei Hong glanced at the young man in yellow with disdain and turned around to leave with Xiao Ye.

  "Halt." Seeing that Wei Hong was about to ignore him, the yellow-clad youth let out a cold snort and directly reached out, grabbing towards Wei Hong's shoulder.

  With just this one grab, the yellow-clothed youth was actually prepared to directly cripple Wei Hong's shoulder, and with his 9th-grade cultivation, he firmly controlled Wei Hong.

  He felt the sharp aura behind him, Wei Hong suddenly turned around, shielding Xiao Ye behind him, and let out a cold hum. At the same time, he fiercely punched towards the palm of the yellow-clothed youth.

  "Bang!"

  The two men each took five steps back, and with this move, the autumn colors were evenly divided. The young man in yellow revealed a hint of surprise, followed by a cold smile on his face, and he hummed softly: "You indeed hid your strength, now I'm even more convinced that Wei Fa and Wei Yi Hang's disappearance is related to you."

  "The Barbarian King's dominance." Wei Hong stomped his foot on the ground and threw a punch directly at the yellow-clothed youth, transforming into a barbaric bull and letting out a long bellow as he charged at the yellow-clothed youth.

  "Underestimating oneself." Seeing Wei Hong launch a surprise attack, the yellow-clad youth slightly raised the corner of his mouth and also threw out a punch. In an instant, the air around them became scorching hot.

  "Flame Palm." A soft cry, like a substantial flame, directly collided with the barbaric bull.

  "Boom!"

  The intense collision caused great destruction in the surrounding area and also attracted a large number of Wei family descendants who had not yet left.

  "How could Wei Guang and Wei Hong have a fight?"

  "This is it, don't you understand? Wei Guang and Wei Fa are of the same lineage, so they naturally have to teach Wei Hong a lesson."

  "Why didn't I see Wei Fa today?"

  Everyone watched the intense fight between the two men on the scene, and also whispered to each other. However, when they saw that Wei Hong was at a disadvantage but showed no signs of defeat, everyone looked surprised.

  "Stop." A loud shout came out, and Wei Zhen directly blocked in front of Wei Hong, exchanging a punch with Wei Guang.

  Wei Zhen's silk remained still, but Wei Guang involuntarily took a few steps back. Wei Zhen said in a cold voice: "Wei Guang, what do you want to do?"

  Wei Guang suddenly appeared, Wei Guang coldly snorted and understood that nothing could be asked today. Moreover, saying anything would be self-defeating, so he turned around and left directly. After seeing Wei Guang leave, Wei Zhen then asked Wei Hong: "What's going on?"

  "Hehe, it's nothing, just a mad dog." Wei Hong smiled faintly and didn't explain anything.

  Wei Zhen slightly shook his head and sighed: "Let's go, I'll send you back instead, to avoid any more trouble along the way."

  Wei Hong did not refuse, all the way, Wei Zhen was very smart and did not ask about what had just happened again, but when arriving at the Fourth Courtyard, he opened his mouth to say: "The rules of the Wei family are that the weak are preyed upon by the strong, only the fittest survive, only the strong can get the cultivation of the Wei family, a dead genius is not called a genius, and the Wei family will not pursue it."

  Wei Zhen finished speaking, patted Wei Hong's shoulder, and left with Wei Zhong. Watching Wei Zhen's departing figure, Wei Hong slightly shook his head. No one is a fool; if Wei Guang and Wei Zhen can see it, then the others in the Wei family should also be able to discover it.

  "Mind your own business, I'd rather die than admit it, what can you do about it?" Wei Hong's face turned ruthless as he cursed in a low voice.

  "Eh? Young master, what did you say?" Xiao Ye asked softly from the side, having not heard Wei Hong's words.

  "Haha, I'm saying, Xiaoye seems even more beautiful." Wei Hong laughed loudly and said.

  。。。。。

  The second day, inside the Wei family hall.

  "You will each write your name on a wooden board." Wei Xiangyang said with a smile as he looked at the twenty young men of the Wei family.

  He took over the wooden sign and saw that the name was a big "Wei" character. Wei Hong directly carved his own name on it, he naturally understood that this was the proof of being a disciple of the Wei family.

  "From today on, you are all members of the Wei family. Our family does not distinguish between inner and outer disciples; all disciples are treated equally, with their monthly allowance determined by their accumulated merit points. Therefore, if you want to receive training from the family, you must work hard to earn those merit points." With that, Wei Xiangyang briefly explained the rules and then let everyone disperse on their own.

  "Where are we going?" Wei Wuming came to Wei Hong's side and asked.

  "Heh heh, let's go take a look at the Wuji Pavilion first and see if there are any suitable techniques for us." Wei Hong said with a smile.

  "Haha, just what I wanted." Wei Wuming burst out laughing, he was also very concerned about the Martial Skills Pavilion.

  Wei Ning also nodded slightly, and the three of them arrived at the Wuji Pavilion together, handing over the wooden plaque to the pavilion elder before stepping inside.

  Wei Wuming specializes in spear techniques, Wei Ning specializes in fist techniques, while Wei Hong is looking for a knife technique. His Overbearing Knife sometimes consumes too much martial energy and is also too single-minded. If possible, Wei Hong would like to find another agility manual.

  "Clear Wind Sword Manual, Cross Mountain Sword Technique, Crazy Rain Sword Technique..."

  Wei Hong looked through row after row of knife technique manuals, although the quality was not low, but he always felt that they were not quite suitable for himself. Suddenly, just as Wei Hong was about to give up, he saw one at the very bottom, which was actually pressed down by a manual. The manual was even covered with a layer of dust.

  "Mystical Swordsmanship."

  Wei Hong gently blew off the dust on top, looking at the already slightly blurred text, but what made Wei Hong even more astonished was the grade of this knife technique.

  "Earthly Stage, Middle Grade." Wei Hong took a deep breath of cold air. The Earthly Stage's technique could be said to be quite precious. However, immediately after, Wei Hong had a thread of doubt. If it was so valuable, why would this secret book be ignored by everyone?

  "Wei Hong, how did you get this knife technique? Hurry up and put it down." Just as Wei Hong was deep in thought, a slightly anxious voice rang out from afar. Wei Zhen quickly snatched the secret manual from Wei Hong's hand and threw it back down again.

  "This sword technique is unusual, you'd better find another one to practice." Wei Zhen's eyes showed a hint of seriousness as he softly advised.

  "Huh?" Wei Hong looked at Wei Zhen with a hint of confusion.

  "In short, those who cultivate this technique will ultimately, without exception, go mad and become mentally unclear. Some even undergo a drastic change in personality, becoming brutal and cruel." Wei Zhen said with a tinge of sadness. It's worth noting that the young men who can enter the Wei family are not ordinary people, and among them is a young genius who also ended up going crazy. That's why he strongly opposed Wei Hong from cultivating it.

  "Haha, I'd like to see the subtlety of this skill for myself." Upon hearing Wei Zhen's words, Wei Hong didn't dismiss the idea, but instead showed a hint of interest and said loudly.

  "Who?" Wei Zhen's face showed a hint of worry, and he wanted to say something, but was directly waved off by Wei Hong.

  "Don't worry, if it's not right, I'll just quit cultivation directly." Wei Hong said with a smile, seeing the worried look on Wei Zhen's face.

  Although Wei Hong said so, Wei Zhen still had a worried look on his face. After repeated reminders and warnings, he finally stopped, but Wei Zhen secretly made a mental note that if Wei Hong couldn't cultivate after two days, he would let him return.

  Wei Hong then looked around again and found that there was no suitable fist method for himself, so he directly bid farewell first and prepared to go back and study the knife method carefully.
