Chapter 559 Peerless Duo
When the terrifying sword intent reached its peak, it suddenly retracted. In an instant, it completely converged, and the transparent sword beam in Ming Xiuâs hand stabbed out.
This wasnât a late strike, but a strike from the future. Ming Xiuâs sword was unbelievably fast as though it had broken through his limits. It transcended space and time as it stabbed at Zhou Wen.
The eruption of this strike was so sudden, fast, and bizarre that Tian Zhenzhen was unable to keep up with it. She did not even see how the strike was thrust out when she heard a clang.
The practice sword in Zhou Wenâs hand had already snapped. As for the transparent beam sword in Ming Xiuâs hand, it had been sheathed at some point in time.
âTomorrow after tomorrow. How many tomorrows would there be? If you have the will, why wait until tomorrow? Live in the moment, and let the Sword of Tomorrow slay all grudges. Good sword technique!â Wei Ge praised.
Tian Zhenzhen only knew that Ming Xiuâs strike was very powerful, but she did not know how strong it was or which aspect of it was strong. She kept staring, but she couldnât tell.
âThank you for your guidance, Coach. Iâll be leaving.â Ming Xiu bowed seriously and then turned to leave the practice room.
âMing Xiu, you have finally won. Furthermore, you have condensed a Life Soul. You are only seventeen years old. Itâs great that you reached the Epic stage at seventeen,â Tian Zhenzhen chased after him and said excitedly.
âNo, I lost.â Ming Xiu shook his head.
âHow can that be? I saw you snap Zhou Wenâs sword. You definitely won!â Tian Zhenzhen exclaimed.
âThatâs because Coach used a practice sword, while mine was a Life Soul Sword. Thatâs why he blocked my sword. It was only because the practice sword was too weak that it snapped. Even so, my sword still failed to injure him, nor was it able to force him to attack. Indeed, Iâm still too inferior. However, I now have a direction. There will come a day when I will catch up with Coach,â Ming Xiu said confidently.
âI see. However, you are already very powerful. You are at the Epic stage at 17 years old. If your father knew, he would definitely be overjoyed,â Tian Zhenzhen consoled.
âThatâs right. Itâs time to go back and make the old man happy. I have to let others decide if the sword art my father passed down is weak or strong.â Ming Xiuâs eyes were filled with excitement. After all, he was only a seventeen-year-old. He had the zeal of youth.
After Ming Xiu and Tian Zhenzhen left, Zhou Wen was about to leave when Wei Ge stopped him.
âZhou Wen, can we have a chat?â Wei Ge asked.
âPresident, whatâs the matter?â Zhou Wen didnât feel anything special about Wei Ge. He didnât have any negative feelings towards him or a good impression of him. He was just a schoolmate he wasnât familiar with.
âI have a question for you,â Wei Ge said.
âJust say whatever you have to say. However, I might not necessarily answer you,â Zhou Wen said.
Wei Ge smiled and said, âActually, itâs not a big deal. I just want to ask you. After graduating, do you plan on staying in school or going out to make a name of yourself?â
âEveryoneâs choices are different. I only wish to return to my hometown to game,â Zhou Wen said.
When Wei Ge heard Zhou Wenâs answer, he was stunned for a long while before he suddenly laughed. âNot bad, not bad. Everyoneâs choices are different. I was overthinking it.â
âZhou Wen, what game are you playing? I should have a lot of free time in the future. I want to play it too,â Wei Ge asked.
âRecently, Huang Ji and I have worked together to develop a new game. If youâre interested, you can download it to play. This is the download address.â Zhou Wen sent the download address of the game, Dimensional, to Wei Ge.
âAlright, Iâll go back and play.â Wei Ge downloaded the game and waved goodbye to Zhou Wen.
Zhou Wen went to the supermarket to buy what he needed before storing them in the chaos space. Then, he informed Li Xuan and company before leaving the school. He headed to Zhuolu alone.
He didnât contact An Sheng. Firstly, An Sheng was still hatching the Companion Egg. Secondly, if he contacted An Sheng, he would definitely enter the temple with him. It would be a meaningless risk.
Zhou Wen already had the confidence to kill Torch Dragon, so it was better for him to do it himself.
Before he left the city, his phone suddenly rang. He took a look at the number and realized that it was from Ouyang Lan. He could not help but mutter inwardly, Donât tell me Ouyang Lan found out so quickly?
âLittle Wen, howâs your exchange with your schoolmates at the moment?â Ouyang Lan asked out of the blue after he picked up the call.
âWhat do you mean?â Zhou Wen was puzzled and didnât understand what Ouyang Lan was getting at.
âIâm talking about the exchange student from Bright Prospects College. Arenât you his student tutor? How are you two getting along? Are you close?â Ouyang Lan asked.
Zhou Wen was even more puzzled. Why would Ouyang Lan actually care about this?
He had no idea that Ouyang Lan had arranged for him to become Ming Xiuâs student tutor.
âOur relationship isnât bad, I suppose?â Zhou Wen felt that their relationship wasnât bad. At the very least, they hadnât quarreled.
âThatâs good. What do you think if I let you live with Ming Xiu in the future?â Ouyang Lan asked again.
âWait, Sis Lan, what do you mean? What do you mean by letting me live with Ming Xiu?â Zhou Wen felt that something was amiss.
Ouyang Lan said, âDo you know what Ming Xiuâs Life Providence is?â
âI donât know.â Zhou Wen had never cared about this.
âDidnât you say that you have a good relationship with him? Why donât you even know about his Life Providence?â Ouyang Lan didnât wait for Zhou Wen to reply before continuing, âHis Life Providence is Peerless Duo. Do you know what it means? It means that there will be two peerless geniuses in the same era.â
âAnd then?â Zhou Wen still didnât understand what this had to do with him.
âLittle Wen, I think that you should read more brain-teasers in addition to your cultivation to strengthen your imagination. Thatâs a Peerless Duo. Of course, it requires two people to be able to be called a duo. In other words, those who practice with him will be augmented by his Life Providence. Both parties will have their cultivation speed accelerate. Donât you think that youâve improved faster in the past three months?â Ouyang Lan said.
âThereâs actually such a thing...â Zhou Wen really wasnât aware. Furthermore, he had never cultivated with Ming Xiu. Instead, it was Feng Qiuyan who practiced with Ming Xiu all day.
âForget it, forget it. Your emotional quotient and reaction are too slow. My relationship with Ming Xiuâs family elders isnât bad, so if you can get along well, I can consider letting you live together and cultivate together...â
âSis Lan... Thank you for your kindness... Thereâs really no need. Iâm more used to living alone...â Zhou Wen finally understood why Wang Fei said that the school had designated him as a student tutor and that he couldnât reject it. So it was Ouyang Lanâs arrangement.
Unfortunately, he had missed Ouyang Lanâs good intentions.
