Chapter 49 Test one's skill
"Haha, this is the first time many people have come here. However, who said that the City Lord's Mansion should be golden and resplendent? The Nine Crooks Corridor?" Qin Batian laughed and led Qin Yun into the courtyard.
Qin Yun followed behind Qin Batian and carefully sized up the courtyard buildings. He discovered that although these buildings were simple and old, they were antique. For example, there were three or two green bamboos planted in one corner of the courtyard, which was considered elegant.
"Actually, even though my mansion is very small, in terms of elegance, my courtyard is much more charming than those Fujia mansions that are filled with strange flowers and plants." Qin Batian introduced Qin Yun proudly.
Qin Yun smiled and nodded. Qin Batian's courtyard was indeed more natural and refined than those luxurious houses.
Looking at the surrounding plants and trees, Qin Yun was surprised to find that each of them had been carefully constructed and looked very unique.
"Did the gardener prune all these plants?" Qin Yun asked.
"Haha, I trimmed these myself. Normally, when I have nothing to do, I like to play with these flowers and plants." Qin Batian smiled and said, "And you didn't notice that there isn't a single servant in my mansion?"
Qin Yun was slightly stunned. He realized that not a single servant had seen him since he entered the door. This surprised Qin Yun.
A city lord's mansion was a bit simple, but there wasn't even a servant. This was inconceivable.
There was also Qin Batian, a person who cultivated lightning comprehension. Logically speaking, he should be very domineering.
However, why did he display such a gentle and approachable personality? This was incompatible with the majesty emitted from his body, but it perfectly fused together.
Perhaps his comprehension of the Concept of Thunder was already at least at the sixth level!
If that was the case, then this person's strength would probably far surpass that of an ordinary peak Nine Heavens Martial Sect.
At present, Qin Yun was not sure if Qin Batian had any other intentions to approach him. Therefore, he had always been on guard against Qin Batian. If Qin Batian did not have any hostility, it would be good. If he had other plans, then Qin Batian's high cultivation would be a huge threat to Qin Yun.
"In front of me is the place where I usually practice martial arts." Qin Batian smiled and pointed to a small empty space in front of him.
Qin Yun looked at the place where Qin Batian was pointing. He discovered that this open space was not simple. He could tell that it was originally a huge bluestone. After a long period of lightning polishing, it had become so smooth, dark and shiny. There were even profound patterns flashing on it.
Qin Yun was shocked. How many years of hard work would it take to polish this green stone to such an extent and even form this natural lightning pattern?
"Come, how about we do two moves? I only have one hand." Qin Batian took a step forward and instantly arrived at this naturally formed bluestone platform. He turned around and smiled at Qin Yun.
Qin Yun smiled bitterly. How could he be Qin Batian's opponent? Even if Qin Batian only had one hand, the difference between them was still very big.
However, Qin Yun did not refuse. He also wanted to see what realm Qin Batian's comprehension of lightning had reached.
As a result, the Wind Shadow Steps were executed and directly transformed into a gust of wind that appeared on the bluestone platform.
"Senior has offended me." Qin Yun cupped his hands and said.
His voice was loud and forceful, and his gaze suddenly became fierce. He immediately exerted strength under his feet and shot out like a cheetah, his momentum ferocious like a tiger descending a mountain.
"Bang!"
Qin Yun directly punched Qin Batian in the chest.
Qin Batian was calm, his left hand behind his back, and his right hand struck out with lightning, gently pushing Qin Yun's fierce punch away.
Qin Yun was not surprised at all. He turned his body around and mercilessly smashed his whip leg towards Qin Batian again.
Qin Batian smiled faintly and instead of retreating, he pointed at Qin Yun's chest, sending him flying like a meteor. He smashed into a pond behind him, causing his entire pond to explode.
Qin Yun slammed into the bottom of the pond before stabilizing his body.
"What terrifying physical strength."
Qin Yun was shocked. Just now, Qin Batian had only pointed out a finger, but a terrifying force erupted out. Moreover, Qin Batian had clearly shown mercy, otherwise all the bones in his body would have collapsed. However, even so, he still felt intense pain in his entire body, as if he was about to tear it apart.
Qin Yun gritted his teeth and flew out of the pond, returning to the bluestone platform.
Qin Batian maintained a smile and said, "My body has been baptized by lightning for a long time. It has long since surpassed the ordinary Wu Zong."
Qin Yun knew that Qin Batian's fleshly power just now was too terrifying. It was simply not something a Martial Sect could possess.
Right now, it seemed that Qin Batian's physical strength alone was far superior to an ordinary peak Martial Sect expert. He was probably comparable to a Martial Marquis of the First Heaven Realm.
"You should use all your strength!" Qin Batian smiled gently.
Qin Yun nodded and slowly untied his clothes. He took off his inner armor and bracelet and threw them in one piece.
Something weighing more than 5,000 jin landed on the ground, directly creating a pit in a piece of land.
Seeing this, Qin Batian revealed a slightly surprised expression.
"So this brat was carrying a heavy weight just now. It seems that his body is not something an ordinary martial artist can compare to. Interesting, interesting." Qin Batian revealed an inexplicable smile.
Although he looked gentle and refined on the surface, he was very bellicose in his bones.
The reason why Qin Yun attracted his attention was because Qin Yun's body emitted a powerful aura of thunder. In addition, he found that he could not see through Qin Yun's cultivation, which made him feel that Qin Yun was mysterious.
Later, when Qin Yun and Shi Tianya fought, he knew that Qin Yun's cultivation was only around the 3rd Heavenly Master.
Although he was a little disappointed, he had an indescribable feeling. He always felt that Qin Yun was still hiding some strength. This made him have a kind of expectation. He hoped that Qin Yun could fight him. Even if he couldn't do it now, he could still do it in the future. This was also the reason why he wanted to befriend Qin Yun.
Qin Yun took off the weight of more than 5000 jin on his body and immediately felt his entire body floating in the air, as if he could fly into the sky with a single jump.
"It feels so good!"
Qin Yun couldn't help but crack his mouth. Now, he finally felt the benefits of weight training. Once he took off his weight for a long time, he would be able to erupt with stronger combat strength.
"Senior Qin, are you ready?" Qin Yun looked at Qin Batian with great confidence.
Although he knew that he was still no match for Qin Batian, he had a strong confidence that made his blood boil with desire to fight Qin Batian.
Qin Batian squinted his eyes and waved to Qin Yun, signaling him to let him go.
Qin Yun smiled in his heart. Then, a gentle breeze blew by, and his entire body disappeared from where he was, appearing directly in front of Qin Batian.
Qin Batian was slightly shocked. He really didn't expect that after Qin Yun took off his heavy object, his explosive speed would be several times faster than before. Moreover, a palm blade mercilessly slashed towards Qin Batian.
Qin Batian smiled and blocked Qin Yun's saber with one palm. However, the force coming from his palm made him take a step back.
"Looks like it's getting more and more interesting. Then let me see how far you can force me." Qin Batian's face was full of smiles, and his eyes finally revealed a hint of fighting spirit.
