My Enemy Became My Cultivation Companion-Chapter 833 - 514: Sword Immortal Little Fox (Triple Release)

After departing from the river and returning, Chen Yi specifically changed his clothes, found an empty room to freshen up, and with that, no one could recognize him. Returning to the room, he walked around the screen and saw Yin Tingxue's slightly flushed face.

Not sure if she was frightened, or what happened.

Chen Yi reached out to pull her into his arms and asked, "What's wrong, are you scared?"

"A little bit." Yin Tingxue nodded hesitantly and then said, "Chen Yi... you are amazing."

"I've always been amazing."

Was she blushing because of that? Chen Yi couldn't help but think. A young woman married for just a year or two, secluded within her chambers, unaware of worldly matters, suddenly discovering how impressive her husband really is, thinking about it this way... blushing is quite understandable.

In the midst of his thoughts, Chen Yi felt a sense of pride rising within him.

No help for it, who asked Little Fox to be so flattering.

Yin Tingxue snuggled closer to him, seeing Chen Yi almost satisfied with joy, she slightly raised her small face and said, "Chen Yi, since you're so amazing, could you teach me swordsmanship?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yi lowered his eyebrows and gazed down at her.

Yin Tingxue met his gaze without flinching, only inching closer silently.

This is a rare opportunity, to say a few words of praise while her husband is at his most spirited, leaning closer to snuggle into his heart, eventually leading Chen Yi to yield to her pleas and agree to teach her a few moves of swordsmanship.

However, while it was a nice thought, such straightforward intent was a bit too obvious. If exposed, Chen Yi might use it as an excuse to rebuke her. Yin Tingxue, upon thinking about it, couldn't help but feel a bit worried. She was still somewhat afraid of her husband.

The deck of the building boat rocked slightly, Chen Yi remained silent, seemingly hesitating. Finally, meeting Yin Tingxue's slightly imploring gaze, he seemed to understand, revealing a teasing smile.

Yin Tingxue tensed up for a moment, then quickly said, "Master Zhou wanted to teach me back then, but I didn't quite feel like learning."

"...Why didn't you want to learn?" he asked, puzzled.

"I want to learn from you."

Chen Yi's expression involuntarily softened, after a while he sighed helplessly, ruffled her hair and said, "I'll teach you, I'll teach you. Seeing how cute you are, I'll teach you." 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

"Uh-huh, then, it's settled, no going back on your word..."

Yin Tingxue nodded repeatedly, squeezed into his arms, and affectionately rubbed her cheek against his,

"Since you say I'm cute, then you have to love me back."

Chen Yi felt his heart melt for a moment, playfully scolding, "Cheesy."

Since he called it cheesy, then cheesy it is, and though a bit shy, Yin Tingxue couldn't refute him at this moment, so she just nodded.

The building boat crossed the river, large and cumbersome, docking in ports along the way to change supplies. Even with the rapid flow of the Yangtze River, it would take a few more days to reach Wuchang Prefecture, so the next few days were quite simple. Chen Yi finally performed his duty as a senior brother, teaching Yin Tingxue the practice of swordsmanship.

Chen Yi still had doubts about his teaching ability, and knowing the path he took might not suit Yin Tingxue, he decided to use the Living Sword as a guiding theme and taught her the thirty-six styles of the Yinzai Sword from the Sword Manual. Yin Tingxue already had some foundation in her cultivation at Yin Sword Mountain, along with the Heavenly Ear Technique, possessing exceedingly high aptitude in Taoist skills and remarkable potential in martial arts. Supplemented by the mental method of Yin Sword Mountain, in a short time, she was able to execute the sword forms skillfully.

Therefore, after the first two days, Chen Yi switched to teaching her the method of combining swordsmanship and Taoist skills, which is the Taoist and Martial Dual Cultivation method of Yin Sword Mountain. Her cultivation had reached the Golden Core stage, which was suitable for controlling the sword through Taoist means. It wasn't apparent at first glance, but in a match, one would understand that every move was aimed at slaying demons, which was originally the most challenging path among the major cultivation methods of Yin Sword Mountain. However, Yin Tingxue mastered it in just three or four days. Her rapid progress left even Chen Yi in awe. Such high aptitude was hidden under that innocently lovely exterior. No wonder, in her past life, she was able to sever the Longevity Bridge and exact revenge on him.

Now and then, he felt secretly fortunate that it was him teaching Yin Tingxue swordsmanship and that she was now his adorable little wife, at his discretion.

"Little Fox, it's about time to get you a sword," Chen Yi said.

With Yin Tingxue's current ability, even without him, as long as she acted cautiously, she could protect herself in the Hu-Guang where demons abounded and hidden currents surged.

Having the skills to navigate the Jianghu, yet without a good sword, how would that do? It was time to prepare a fine sword for her, a gift from him as her husband, making up for the birthday gift he owed her and serving as a token of affection.

"Now you can be considered a Sword Immortal, you ought to have your own sword."

Yin Tingxue seemed a bit eager, rubbing her little hands, with a sweaty neck, perspiration from her earlier sword practice.

"Alright, you give me a sword, and I'll give you something in return later," said Yin Tingxue.

"So well-behaved?"

"There should be give and take, that's what mother taught me from a young age. As a child, I also gave many gifts to the maids around me."

Chen Yi chuckled and uttered an "hm".

At this moment, for some reason, he suddenly thought of that spring trinket, with ordinary handwriting, plated copper resembling gold at the edges.

It was worth only ten taels of silver, yet Chen Yi felt a sudden pang in his heart.

Feeling distressed…

Thinking for a bit, Chen Yi took a pouch out of the Square Land, poured out some Silver Coin, and placed it in Yin Tingxue's hands.

Yin Tingxue slightly parted her small mouth in surprise, gripping it slightly, still not quite feeling real.

Because of that previous escape of hers, and secretly buying medicine, her husband rarely gave her pocket money. Even the basic monthly salary was withheld to prevent her from cultivating unwanted thoughts, a situation Yin Tingxue had grown accustomed to over time.

Chen Yi pressed the money into her hand and softly said, "In the future, I'll give you pocket money, don't spend it recklessly, understand? Not that I'm asking you not to buy anything, just don't spend it carelessly, buy whatever you want... sigh, I don't even know what I'm saying, just don't buy anything for me, everything else is up to you."
