章節 526: Let Them Watch

True to his words, Yu Zhen took Li Xueyue out for a quick run in the fields behind the palace. Together, they had ridden their horses before he took her back to the palace—to feed Xiao Juzi. Next, he taught her some tricks and techniques for sword fighting and gave her some pointers.

"Your skills have deteriorated a bit," Yu Zhen informed her whilst putting his sword aside. 

She was wielding a wooden sword, just like him, for he was worried about injuring her since there was their first combat together in a while. But she teased him, saying he should be more worried about her injuring him.

"Yes, I haven't been able to practice in a while." Li Xueyue sighed. 

Li Xueyue placed the wooden swords back onto the rack, together with the other wooden equipment. They seemed like toys to her, especially when she had wielded swords sharp enough to slice a person in half.
