King of Assassins

Chapter 386 Kill_3


He could remember all the details and practiced step by step, mastering it fully on the first try.

However, there was a subtle rhythm in how to exert force and circulate energy. Such extremely fine nuances could not be detailed in a manual.

They require an experienced teacher to impart them, to avoid straying from the right path.

The Third Lady didn't expect Gao Xuan to master it immediately; she answered whatever Gao Xuan asked, cooperating fully.

Thus, after inquiring about the Twenty-four Palm Techniques once, more than an hour had passed.

Then, the Third Lady watched as Gao Xuan practiced the Golden Silk Palm from start to finish. His movements were smooth and natural, without any hindrance, appearing more adept than even her.

The Third Lady was extremely astonished. How was this possible? Although Gao Xuan was greatly talented in martial arts, he was far from being a genius.

Could he have mastered the Golden Silk Palm just by listening to her explanation once? Where in the world is there such a genius?

Gao Xuan did not offer an explanation and asked the Third Lady again about the various details of the Golden Silk Palm.

After the Third Lady explained, Gao Xuan's face darkened: "Third Lady, the Hidden Needle in Cotton move you just mentioned wasn't what you said before. You said the energy moves three circles around the Tan Zhong, but now you say it moves through the Purple Palace. Do you think I'm a fool?"

The Third Lady's face changed greatly; she had casually given a mixed-up explanation, of which she herself wasn't certain.

Such complex variations took her over ten years to master. How could he remember it after hearing it once?

Gao Xuan said grimly: "Third Lady, if you don't cooperate, don't blame me for being ruthless."

With no other choice, the Third Lady had to repeat it again. This time, she dared not make things up, as she couldn't remember what she made up and would definitely get it wrong on further repetition.

Gao Xuan questioned several times and was able to confirm that what the Third Lady said was the truth.

To be honest, this cotton-like energy-flowing palm technique was top-level martial arts in the Jianghu, but to him, it was too simple.

It was merely a guidance of inner strength to coordinate with movements, too large a gap from Source Power transformation.

This palm technique's power increases with inner strength. His Lesser Yang Technique cultivation was mediocre, and even if he learned the Golden Silk Palm, its power would be just so-so.

Gao Xuan learned the palm technique and then asked the Third Lady: "What major event are you referring to?"

After some hesitation, the Third Lady still spoke: "Thirty women from various places are to be shipped tomorrow night to Qianzhou Prefecture…"

She couldn't help but advise Gao Xuan: "Learning the Golden Silk Palm means nothing. I won't hold it against you. I can even pretend this didn't happen. But if you interfere with that shipment, the Sect will never forgive you!"

"And you justify abductions."

Gao Xuan casually pressed the Shen Cang Acupoint on the Third Lady. This point is among the most vital acupoints; his Finger Force caused her to roll her eyes and faint instantly.

Gao Xuan didn't kill the Third Lady; given her cooperation, there was no need for him to use lethal force. Naturally, there would be someone to handle her.

On the table beside him were brush, ink, paper, and inkstone. Gao Xuan picked up the brush and wrote a letter of accusation. Only then did he push open the door and leave gracefully.

The Third Lady held high authority, and no one dared disturb her at night. He had ample time.

In Cyan Forest City was the Feiyun Sword Hall, the Lower Institute of the Kongtong Sect.

The Kongtong Sect is one of the Seven Great Sword Sects today, a renowned and established orthodox sect.

Feiyun Sword Hall in Cyan Forest City had numerous disciples and members, representing the local orthodox faction.

He Chuan of Feiyun Sword, a Great Swordsman famed in the Northwest.

Gao Xuan took advantage of the night to leap over the wall and infiltrate the Feiyun Sword Hall.

The Feiyun Sword Hall was far more impressive than the Zhenwu Escort Agency, especially the main hall, which was brightly lit and lively.

Gao Xuan glanced over; in the main hall, a middle-aged man sat in the chief seat, instructing a few young men in sword practice.

After a couple of glances, Gao Xuan lost interest. Watching this kind of swordsmanship was a waste of life beyond the third look.

Gao Xuan waved his hand, and with a thud, a flying saber pierced into the table beside He Chuan.

He Chuan remained calm, glanced outside, but in the dark night, saw no one. Several disciples, however, called out and rushed out with their swords.

He Chuan pulled out the flying saber, opened the letter attached, and as he read, his face turned serious.

After a short while, the disciples returned, each flushed with shame, having found no one.

He Chuan gestured and said, "No need to search. I need to visit the Zhenwu Escort Agency."

The next day, the Cyan Forest Government issued a most-wanted notice, with the wanted person's illustration shockingly being Gao Xuan.

Within half a day, Gao Xuan's image was posted at the four gates of the city walls.

When Tao Hui and Tao Ying two sisters entered the city, they saw Gao Xuan's wanted poster. Their eyes lit up, and Tao Hui pointed at the image, loudly saying: "Father, this is the scoundrel who drugged us…"

Tao Zhengren stroked his beard and, with a face full of coldness, said, "Deserves to die."
