Chapter 740: Chapter 736: Passing Down the Sword

Seeing her appear, Fu Biqiong revealed a smile.

A smile filled with doting, delight, and hope.

Pointing at Chu Zhiyuan with a smile, she said, ”Xiao Zheng, this is the Ninth Prince and Miss Li.”

She then said, ”Your Highness, this is my apprentice, Fu Zheng.”

Fu Zheng cupped her fist and charmingly said, ”Greetings to Your Highness, greetings to Miss Li.”

Her lively eyes gazed at Chu Zhiyuan.

Chu Zhiyuan assessed her in turn, ”What is Miss Fu looking at?”

With skin like congealed fat, apricot eyes, and peach-like cheeks, she was a rare beauty.

More importantly, her apricot eyes were brimming with spirit and intelligence as she glanced around.

”I have long heard of the Ninth Prince’s great name, and today I finally see your true appearance.”

”My notorious reputation, you mean?”

Fu Zheng said, ”Everyone thinks the Ninth Prince is wise and mighty, truly remarkable.”

Chu Zhiyuan slightly raised his sword-like brows and couldn’t help but smile, ”Miss Fu speaks very charmingly.”

Fu Biqiong said, ”Your Highness, Xiao Zheng is not uttering polite words, she genuinely admires Your Highness.”

”Seeing you handle those two princes of the Yuanzhen Dynasty with such ease was gratifying!” Fu Zheng said, ”They came to our Jade Dynasty to flaunt their power, only to disgrace themselves!”

Chu Zhiyuan replied, ”They came prepared, and the victory was close.”

”To outsiders, Your Highness seemed at ease, as if it were a trivial matter.”

”It was only an appearance, in truth it was achieved by clever strategy, appearing as though it was won by force.”

”It was a scheme?” Fu Zheng displayed intense curiosity and hurriedly asked, ”What scheme did Your Highness use, how did you plan it?”

She was extremely curious.

Chu Zhiyuan then narrated the situation in detail; upon hearing it, Fu Zheng, Fu Biqiong, and even Li Yuzhen were astonished.

Reflecting on it now, it still felt risky, indeed there was an element of luck.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, ”Knowing the truth, does it seem ordinary now?”

”Remarkable,” Fu Zheng sighed, ”We could not have calculated all that.”

Chu Zhiyuan demonstrated extraordinary observational and action skills, even if there was an element of opportunism, it did not diminish his wisdom and might.

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”Encountering them now, there’s no need for such calculation; with cultivation alone, they can be crushed, so fundamentally it’s still cultivation and martial arts.”

Fu Biqiong strongly agreed, ”Cultivation and martial skills are fundamental.”

She herself had also used risky moves, barely escaping to here; if her cultivation were stronger, she wouldn’t need to be so embarrassed.

Chu Zhiyuan asked, ”Fu Sect Master, is this Green Bamboo Sword Technique passed to you, or Miss Fu?”

He had already vaguely guessed Fu Biqiong’s decision.

Fu Biqiong glanced at Fu Zheng, ”Pass it to Xiao Zheng; let Xiao Zheng pass it back to me later.”

”Really?” Chu Zhiyuan said, ”That would be another transmission.”

Fu Biqiong looked at Fu Zheng and said slowly, ”In terms of aptitude, Xiao Zheng surpasses me, passing it to her is far better than to me.”

”Master...” Fu Zheng hesitated.

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”Miss Fu’s aptitude indeed excels, this is truly a wise choice.”

A wise choice indeed, yet rarely would anyone choose like this; Fu Biqiong extremely doted on Fu Zheng, and only with broad-mindedness would she choose so.

Of course, it could also be to avoid risks, or she might not fully trust herself.

This possibility exists; human hearts are unpredictable, human nature is complex.

Fu Zheng hastily said, ”Master, you should directly receive the inheritance; I am not in a hurry.”

”Once you’ve practiced, you can quickly comprehend it and pass it back to me.”

”But...”

”Well then,” Chu Zhiyuan said, ”No need for two disputes, why not each take one turn, it doesn’t take much.”

”Isn’t this too much trouble for Your Highness?”

”Merely a small effort,” Chu Zhiyuan smiled, ”Fu Sect Master, shall we begin?”

”I will trouble Your Highness,” Fu Biqiong nodded solemnly.

Chu Zhiyuan reached out his left hand, his fingers forming a sword, gently tapping her forehead.

She looked on calmly, without flinching.

Fu Zheng nervously watched them, watching Chu Zhiyuan’s finger lightly touch Fu Biqiong’s forehead, and then she closed her eyes, remaining motionless.

Chu Zhiyuan also closed his eyes, his finger resting motionlessly on her forehead.

After a moment, at the point of contact, there seemed to be a flicker of light on her forehead.

Her slender fingers then gently trembled as if ready to wield a sword at any moment.

The trembling grew more intense.

Chu Zhiyuan slowly retracted his finger, opened his eyes, and looked at Fu Biqiong.

But Fu Biqiong remained with her eyes closed, her slender fingers trembling even more violently.

Fu Zheng curiously looked at her, then at Chu Zhiyuan.

Chu Zhiyuan calmly said, ”She is absorbing the inheritance, will you wait a moment?”

”Go ahead,” Fu Zheng whispered.

She had previously also seen Chu Liezhao.

But Chu Zhiyuan was unaware.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled, ”You do trust me.”

Fu Zheng said, ”How could Your Highness harm a young lady like me!”

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”Alright then, settle down and relax your mind.”

”Okay,” Fu Zheng replied.

Chu Zhiyuan extended his hand, fingers forming a sword, and gently pointed at her forehead.

After a moment, he retracted his finger, looking intently at Fu Zheng.

Fu Zheng closed her eyes, remained motionless, with a point of light still flickering on her forehead.

This was due to the method of inheritance, holding spirit light within, which was integrating into their souls.

This Fu Zheng’s aptitude was indeed outstanding, rare in this world.

Through the method of inheritance, he could see it clearly.

Fu Zheng’s soul was strong and pure, comparable to his own, her cultivation progress would inevitably be rapid.

Moreover, she was practicing demon techniques, so she was already at the Ninth Transition of the Transformation Realm.

This Transformation Realm could trap others, but not Fu Zheng.

It was estimated that before long, Fu Zheng would enter the Divinity Transformation Realm to become a Venerable.

By then, the Bamboo Sect would have two Venerables, significantly increasing its strength, comparable to the Feiyun Sect.

At that time, the Bamboo Sect would be able to speak loudly and proudly.

No wonder Fu Biqiong valued her so much, protecting her so dearly.

Fu Zheng quickly opened her bright eyes, the light on her forehead withdrawing inward.

Her bright eyes sparkled, with a hint of Sword Qi flickering in their depths.

Chu Zhiyuan immediately knew she had a profound comprehension, her insight was exceptional.

The Bamboo Sect was destined to flourish.

Fu Zheng clasped her fist and softly said, ”Thank you, Your Highness.”

Chu Zhiyuan waved his hand indicating she need not be polite and curiously asked, ”Has Miss Fu comprehended the Green Bamboo Sword Technique?”

”Yes, it is indeed profound.”

Li Yuzhen curiously asked, ”Comprehended it? To what level?”

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”She should have directly advanced to the Entering Spirit Level, no?”

Li Yuzhen was puzzled, ”Entering Spirit Level? Advanced directly to Entering Spirit Level without practice?”

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”The inheritor of this sword technique is at the Entering Spirit Level, the rest requires personal comprehension and cultivation.”

This was the power of the method of inheritance, directly transferring the Entering Spirit Level Green Bamboo Sword Technique.

As for the capability to absorb it, and to directly comprehend it to enter the Entering Spirit Level, it depended on one’s aptitude and insight.

Clearly, Fu Zheng’s aptitude and insight were sufficient to completely absorb this inheritance.

Fu Zheng softly said, ”This Green Bamboo Sword Technique resembles the aura of our Green Bamboo Sword Technique.”

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”It should rightfully belong to you.”

He suspected this Green Bamboo Sword Technique was the entry to the Green Bamboo Sword Technique, continuous in origin.

Such a coincidence seemed possible.

Fu Biqiong also gradually awoke, looking at Chu Zhiyuan with appreciation, ”Thank you, Your Highness.”

The Bamboo Sect had indeed gained greatly.

”To thank me, help me with a task,” Chu Zhiyuan smiled, ”In the future, keep me informed with news from your Bamboo Sect, remind me of what I need to know.”

”Certainly,” Fu Biqiong readily agreed.
