Tie Linglong had a dream. She hoped that she could become a saberman like the Dragon King.
The Dragon King had a sword and used his saber more like a sword as his style had a lot of stabbing moves. But she only liked the saber as she preferred the few extra pounds of weight.
She would never forget the scene of their first meeting: the Dragon King fighting over a dozen bandits alone as he led them around in a circle. And each time he turned around he would kill one person. Simple and direct, unhurried and ruthless.
Her saber techniques were already very good but still far away from the Dragon King's. She could also be ruthless and calm, but she just couldn't do both at the same time.
When Lotus had shown up and replaced her with Chu Nanping as the Dragon King's bodyguard, Tie Linglong suddenly understood that what she lacked was a killer's training. The Dragon King had never forced her to practice kung fu. He didn't even urge her. It was all voluntary.
