After the two of them arrived at the Wind God Chamber of Commerce in the city, they did not wander around.
Liang Yi only needed an ordinary sword. Su Youyi selected a white quality fine steel sword and a blue quality Cloudwave Sword. The two swords made Liang Yi's wallet deflate, leaving him with only a few hundred spirit coins.
Liang Yi put away both swords. However, the difference was that he kept the fine steel sword in his storage ring, while Cloud Water Sword was kept in the player's backpack. To take something from the storage ring, one needed to probe it with their divine sense, lock onto the item, and finally take out the item. As for taking something from the player's backpack, one only needed to think about it. Once an emergency occurred, this little bit of time difference might be fatal.
Therefore, the experts in the game focused on storing storage rings that were not important to fight their enemies. The truly important ones would be kept in their backpacks so that they could be taken out quickly.
They choose to not stay in the Small Bamboo House. After Liang Yi and Su Youyi discussed it, they rented a small courtyard opposite Zhiqing's residence in the city.
If they encountered any special circumstances, the chances of being found would be relatively low.
"Senior Brother, your sword technique is so standard!" Su Youyi exclaimed as she looked at Liang Yi, who was practicing his sword technique in the courtyard.
In her opinion, the sword technique that her senior brother was currently using was the most standard Stainless Sword Technique. It was exactly the same as what was described in the sword manual.
[Stainless Sword Technique Proficiency+100]
Liang Yi, who had just used the first sword technique, looked at the notification on the system interface and nodded.
As expected, the proficiency setting did not change. One proficiency point was equivalent to the skill experience value of the same value.
Skills were not fixed like cultivation techniques. Skills in Profound Mystery focused more on different aspects. Different people would have different effects when using them.
Could it be that everyone who had practiced the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms was as invincible as Xiao Feng?
It was the same for skills. The experience gained from leveling up was only the most basic and standard. How to use it in the future depended entirely on the players themselves.
The two characters had the same level, equipment, and skill level. Players who had studied skills would definitely be able to defeat players who only knew how to release skills step by step.
Therefore, there was no problem for Liang Yi to use his skills now. However, what he needed to do was to crush the sword moves and integrate them into the ever-changing combat situation. This was the difference between an expert and an ordinary player.
"It's just that I've just reached the point where I can use it. It's far from enough." Liang Yi shook his head and took a sip of the water gourd from his junior sister.
"Senior brother, are we going to wait here?" Su Youyi asked.
"Of course not. When the sky turns completely dark, we'll go to the other side of the city to look for Senior Brother He. Tonight, we'll explore the Small Bamboo House together!" A sharp glint flashed across Liang Yi's eyes.
Now that he recalled the scene of their conversation during the day, he felt that there was something wrong with the way "Zhang Feng" looked at him.
"Senior Brother, should we wear a night suit like in the storybook? Be a pair of male and female evil spirits?"
"What are you thinking about every day with that little brain of yours? There's no need to disguise yourself. I have a brilliant plan." Liang Yi gently tapped Su Youyi's little head and smiled.
In the time it took to finish a cup of tea, the sky had completely darkened.
Liang Yi and Su Youyi used their movement techniques and blended into the night. They quietly came from the south of the city to the north, avoiding the bustling crowd and the city guards.
"Knock, knock!"
As soon as the knock sounded, the wooden door in front of him opened by itself.
Liang Yi and Su Youyi looked at each other. It seemed that their senior brother already knew that they were here.
They entered and closed the door behind them. The two of them came to the hall.
Dressed in a black stealth suit, He Zhiqing was already waiting.
"Senior Brother He, what are you doing?"
Liang Yi was dumbfounded when he saw He Zhiqing's outfit.
What was this??
On the side, Su Youyi could not help but size up Zhiqing's clothes. She thought to herself,
"This is a night suit, right? It's exactly as black as the storybook says."
"Huh? Junior Brother Liang, aren't you going to visit the bamboo house at night? I'm quite experienced in this area." He Zhiqing patted his night suit to show that he was a professional.
The corner of Liang Yi's mouth twitched. It was not strange that He Zhiqing could guess his plan, but as the chief disciple of the Heavenly Circulation Sect, the number one person of the younger generation, the idol in the hearts of the players actually had such rich experience in this aspect?
What were you doing during your training?!
"Don't misunderstand. I usually encounter some injustice. As long as no one dies, I won't choose to attack on the spot.
"I'll investigate who's right and who's wrong before choosing to help. I can't avoid using these during the investigation."
Looking at the suspicious gazes of the two people in front of him, He Zhiqing chose to explain. Otherwise, his reputation might be ruined.
"I see." Liang Yi and Su Youyi were convinced by his words.
"Senior Brother He didn't perform divination directly?" Liang Yi knew that Zhi Qing's divination skills were extraordinary.
"Divination is useful, but it's not omnipotent. I haven't reached Master's level yet, and…" He Zhiqing was a little embarrassed.
"When I was young, I read a few chivalrous books in the library of the Heavenly Circulation Sect when I was learning the method of star divination. The magnificent scenery of the martial world depicted in them had some influence on me." He Zhiqing revealed this little secret that he had never told his master.
"Hahaha, then all the more reason for Senior Brother He to go to the Sword Cleansing Heavenly Lake. When you see injustice on the road, draw your sword and help!" Liang Yi laughed loudly. He really did not know that there was such a reason behind He Zhiqing's willingness to help others.
"Senior Brother He can now be considered a chivalrous person," Su Youyi said with a smile. After hearing that Zhiqing had also read these textbooks when she was young, she was no longer afraid of strangers. It was like knowing that the top student in the class who ranked first in every exam would also play online games after school. The barrier between them disappeared without a trace.
He Zhiqing shook his head. He had never felt that he was a chivalrous person. He was only walking in that direction, and that goal was a long journey that was worth pursuing for the rest of his life.
"It's getting late. Let's go," Liang Yi said as he glanced out of the window.
"Yup!"
"Good!"
The three people who left Zhiqing's place did not go straight to the Small Bamboo House. Instead, under Liang Yi's lead, they caught a fat man with a rich face and brought him to a deserted alley.
Only then did He Zhiqing realize that the young man in front of him was not the rumored ordinary person with no cultivation aptitude. However, he did not ask further. After all, everyone had their own secrets.
"Please spare my life! I'll give you as much money as you want. I just hope that you can be magnanimous and let me live!" Yu Wei did not know who he had offended. He had just changed into a new disguise.
"A Hero for a Second and a Coward for a Lifetime." He decisively chose the latter.
His father had said that once he was caught, he would kneel down and beg for mercy without caring about anything else!
