Perhaps one should remain in Bingzhou and reenact one's life according to the script of history, or perhaps one should venture out into the world, not waiting for the tragedy to unfold in the future

Do not understand

The person was clearly taken aback, then laughed heartily and said, "I, Wang Yue, have never encountered someone as interesting as you. How old are you this year?"

Lü Bu quickly changed his attire and, wielding his spear, went towards the sound. Unexpectedly, there was someone like Lü Bu who was also surrounded by a group of people. However, the figure of that person appeared relaxed and at ease, even under the encirclement of more than thirty riders, with a calm expression that showed not the slightest hint of fear.

Lü Bu did not rise, remaining seated, yet his eyes never left the person. Arriving at the place where Lü Bu had just bathed, the individual gently began to clean the long sword, with a tenderness akin to that of a husband towards his wife, completely devoid of the earlier brutality. Once the sword was thoroughly cleaned, he took out a piece of white silk from his bosom to dry the blade, the entire process being meticulous and unhurried

Haha, not bad. At the age of fifteen, you dared to venture out into the world alone, just like I did in my youth.

If you do not offend me, I will not bother with you. However, I see that the person at https://wwwhetushu.com has finally been surrounded by them. After all, no matter how fast a person runs, they cannot compare to a horse. The person is wielding a long sword, which is extremely rare in the northern regions. Generally, only some wealthy young masters carry swords with them; most people use spears or knives.

When you can achieve such an effect, you may consider yourself to have learned Taoism

Lü Bu understood that this group of people was not seeking trouble for themselves; however, he had no intention of coming to their aid in this situation where they were outnumbered. Instead, he chose to sit in a hidden place and enjoy the spectacle.

Lü Bu did not know where he should go

Wang Yue was filled with exasperation; how many people in the world would risk injury just to seek his mentorship, yet this young man remained so oblivious. However, the more he observed this person's character, the more he found it appealing. Wang Yue did not use his treasured sword but casually picked up a branch from the ground. He approached a large tree, suddenly exerted force, and the slender branch struck the trunk, penetrating deeply, indeed securing itself firmly. Lü Bu believed he could achieve the same feat, and surely Wang Yue could not be so unremarkable. Facing Wang Yue's somewhat proud gaze, Lü Bu went behind the large tree, only to discover a hollow the size of a bowl behind it.

Lü Bu clenched his hands tightly, feeling a surge of heat in his heart. If such a master were to be missed, he feared he would regret it for the rest of his life

Lü Bu, because of this matter, began to pay attention to that person's actions

At this moment, Lü Bu noticed that the person had finished cleaning up and was about to set off.

The cool water flowed around his body, and Lü Bu let out a long sigh of relief

Lü Bu paid no attention to this remark; what lingered in his mind were the actions of Wang Yue just moments ago, replaying in his mind like scenes in slow motion.

Why do you keep following me like this

I want to surpass you

Fifteen

The remaining individuals finally understood that they were no match for these people. With a loud whistle, they hurriedly rode away. The man did not pursue them; he merely sheathed his long sword and walked towards Lü Bu. Lü Bu thought to himself: Could it be that he had already discovered me? If so, this person still had the energy to observe his surroundings during the fight, which makes his strength truly unpredictable

The sword is a short weapon, and it is light. One should ideally leverage its advantages while compensating for its shortcomings with agile movements. However, that person seemed either unaware or indifferent, actually choosing to clash the sword in hand against a spear. I initially thought this person would suffer a loss, but unexpectedly, it was the spear wielder who was knocked off his horse.

However, Wang Yue quickly regretted teaching Lü Bu his skills, as strange noises began to emanate from the woods in a very rhythmic manner. Wang Yue knew that Lü Bu had already started his training, but in the stillness of the deep night, it was so disruptive to his peaceful dreams

Upon seeing this, Lü Bu thought to himself: "What a divine weapon." However, as time passed, Lü Bu gradually realized that something was amiss

"Good, Lü Bu, today I will teach you about this technique called breaking through with a point. This is something I realized in my earlier years. Essentially, it means to first conceal your strength in a single point, and then, using the combined strength of both sides, unleash it all at that one point of the opponent. Do you understand clearly?"

Once is enough

Wang Yue was taken aback again, then laughed heartily and said, "Good, good, good. What is your name?"

Wang Yue was momentarily taken aback, then smiled and said, "Alright, let me demonstrate it for you once, but remember, this is the only opportunity you have, unless you call me Master Yi and the Librarian."

Could it be that those thieves have come following the trail? Just right, we can use them to practice our skills.

Afterward, the person began to clean the blood and dust from his body. Taking advantage of this moment, Lü Bu arrived at the place of the recent slaughter, picked up the weapon of one of the individuals, and couldn't help but gasp in shock.

Originally, Lü Bu believed that although the person possessed exceptional martial skills, he was ultimately relying on the power of divine weapons to achieve such swiftness. However, he did not expect that the gaps on these weapons were not neat scratches, but rather shattered. Others might not pay attention, but Lü Bu understood very well how much force was required to produce such an effect. Looking again at the fatal wounds on the corpses, they were mostly concentrated in one area, resembling the weapons, yet the flesh and blood were a muddled mess. Moreover, in some cases, their bones, along with the flesh, had completely vanished. Others might not notice, but Lü Bu was acutely aware of the immense force needed to create such results. Observing the fatal wounds on the corpses again, they were primarily localized, similar to the weapons, but the flesh and blood were indistinct, and in some instances, their bones along with the flesh had entirely disappeared.

Thus, Lü Bu followed that person from a distance of one hundred meters. This situation persisted for ten days, and one night, that person took the initiative to come to the place where Lü Bu was resting and sat down.

Lü Bu

Lü Bu possessed extraordinary eyesight; although he was at a distance, he noticed something unusual. Anyone who came into contact with that person's sword, such as the one wielding the spear, not only suffered grievous wounds from the spear but also had blood splattered across their chest, dying a tragic death. Many others were in similar situations. In just a moment, nearly twenty people had been slain by that person with a single stroke of his sword

Lu Bu let out a cold laugh. Wang Yue, however, was unfazed and showed great interest in Lu Bu, continuing to ask: "After seeing those corpses, what did you discover?" Lu Bu replied: "Strength and explosiveness." Wang Yue laughed and said: "Usually, experts can only recognize strength; I didn't expect that a young lad like you could see explosiveness. Do you want to learn this?" Lu Bu nodded. Wang Yue then asked: "So why didn't you speak up earlier?" "There was no need," Lu Bu replied.

Wang Yue went to rest first, after all, there is still more than half of the journey to cover

This is Lü Bu

Suddenly, a series of noisy sounds came from outside; it was the sound of a large number of hooves that could create such a clamor

Lü Bu felt pain on both sides of his legs. After several days and nights of running, even the toughest man had to rest. Lü Bu found a water source, let his horse graze and rest, while he took a bath to wash away the dirt on his body, slowly scrubbing himself. The wounds on his waist had disappeared, and his skin was as flawless as jade.
