"...You think-..."
Nie You finally found a way to retort to Wu Long and regain some face after being humiliated before but just as the corners of his mouth rose and he started to speak Wu Long moved forward and unleashed a barrage of attacks that instantly overwhelmed him.
Some attacks partially went through his defenses and gashes started accumulating all over Nie You's body.
"You! You hid your abilities!"
Nie You furiously shouted as he was both frustrated by the struggle and angry that Wu Long was going to just act like that moment before did not exist.
"I am going to make a blood poodle out of you so stop shouting and behave"
Wu Long said, adamantly pressing on with the 'poodle' narrative.
"That doesn't even make any sense!!! How are you going to make that?!!"
Nie You shouted, rage blazing in his eyes as he was losing ground, not being able to counter even once, only defending against an unending stream of Sword Qi strikes.
I got some comments in the earlier chapters, it seems I forgot to include the information about talents in earlier lore, but talent is not something that could be upgraded, modified or changed with a herb or pill in this story. He has to struggle and go against his predestined talent to rise, which is part of what I think makes him interesting since he is not exactly a genius XD.
The gift he received from that nice lady in the first chapter is about the first thing he received relatively easily in all of his life. XD
Thank you very much for reading, commenting, and your tremendous support! XD
There is an important announcement in the auxiliary chapter
