Chapter 161: Chapter 161: Blood Clan Princess VS The Newly Embraced Human Girl (Part 16)

“Young Master Laine, I heard you’ve acquired a new swordsmanship teacher, and I especially wanted to ask for some pointers,” said a brawny blond man to Lancelot.

As he finished speaking, he looked at Gu Shengyin, whose graceful figure was still discernible despite being wrapped in a black cloak, with undisguised contempt in his tone.

“I heard your new teacher is actually a woman?” He sized up Gu Shengyin, “Such a frail woman should stay at home under the protection of men. A sword is not a suitable weapon for a woman to wield!”

“Furthermore…” He looked at the longsword in Lancelot’s hand, his disdain clear in his words, “So it’s indeed a woman’s sword, so thin and small. Can it even cut through an enemy’s throat?”

Lancelot was furious. This blond, muscular man was his previous swordsmanship teacher, named Hart, whose skills were indeed not bad but who was arrogant and proud, especially disdainful of women.

As soon as Lancelot returned, he had told his parents that he was learning new swordsmanship and did not need a swordsmanship teacher, which seemed to have caused some dissatisfaction in Hart’s heart.

But how dare he insult her!

Lancelot was about to speak, but Gu Shengyin stopped him.

She looked at Hart with a smile that was not quite a smile, “You want to have a match with me?”

Hart looked proud and confident, “Of course.”

Gu Shengyin nodded her head, “Good, it seems you don’t think much of my swordsmanship.”

She extended her right hand, and a longsword materialized out of thin air.

Hart was startled by this trick, but he snorted coldly, “Playing god.”

Gu Shengyin paid no attention to him, instead turning to Lancelot and saying, “Watch carefully, this is the true power of swordsmanship.”

Lancelot was curious. He had always known about Yekaterina’s strength but had never seen her wield a sword.

Then, he watched with wide eyes.

A dazzling flash of sword light shone forth.

The gigantic sword in Hart’s hand, which was said to be forged from the sturdiest of materials, was effortlessly sliced into two.

The sword in Gu Shengyin’s hand was now resting against his neck.

A chill spread from his neck throughout Hart’s body, and he had no doubt that this sword could easily sever his whole head, just like the half of the sword that lay on the ground.

“So tell me, can this thin sword, stopped at your throat, cut through your throat?” Gu Shengyin gently pushed her sword forward a bit, and Hart immediately felt a sharp pain.

Unchanging in expression, Hart looked firmly at Gu Shengyin, “I apologize for my behavior before, Your swordsmanship is extremely powerful, far beyond my own. Defeated by your hand, I, Hart, am entirely convinced. As the vanquished, I am at your disposal!”

After he spoke, he closed his eyes, ready for the execution.

Gu Shengyin casually withdrew her longsword and didn’t give him another glance.

“Now that you know what you wanted, you may leave,” she said.

As she spoke, her gaze casually drifted in a certain direction.

Madam Laine, who had been secretly watching from the small attic, felt a chill in her heart, fearing her presence might have been discovered.

Impossible! She comforted herself, this location had its unique advantages, and that person, no matter how skilled, couldn’t possibly discover her.

Lancelot, who had been paying close attention to Gu Shengyin, noticed her gaze and hurriedly asked, “What’s wrong?”

“Nothing,” Gu Shengyin answered noncommittally.

After Madam Laine came down from the attic, she thought it over and decided to tell her husband about today’s events.

“What did you say?” Brodt was both shocked and furious.
