Chapter Twelve: The Left Hand of Heaven's King

  "Little master, you can just use your sword!"

  Taking a step forward, he stood in front of the shallow pit, and Yan Li shook his head with an unyielding determination. "If it were a sword fight, then I'd rather admit defeat!"

  Yue Yu reluctantly withdrew his gaze. Then he transferred the sword in his hand to his left hand. "Can't I use my left hand then?"

  At this time, Yue Yu seemed to have changed into a different person. With the sword held horizontally in front of him with his left arm, Yue Yu's entire demeanor suddenly became sharp and unmatched. It was as if a sharp blade had been unsheathed, radiating a cold glow, and he was completely different from the gentle and refined youth he was before.

  In Yue Yu's previous life, his most skilled hand was his left hand, and in the army, he had the nickname "Left-handed King". After coming to this world, he also brought this habit with him. The memories of using his left hand before, combined with a period of deliberate practice, now make his left hand almost as good as his right hand, except for slightly less strength, but its flexibility is even better than his right hand.

  Ran Li still hesitated, glancing at Yue Yu's pair of hands, and after a moment of hesitation, he finally nodded. Compared to his own young master's knife, using his left hand to wield a sword was barely within his acceptable range.

  At this time, Yue Yu had already smiled lightly and stepped forward three steps, attacking with one sword. It looked soft and weak, but Ran Li's face was solemn as he let out a tiger roar, taking a step back and striking with a horizontal slash. The enraged Ming Wang axe combined with the Huachen Great True Power's fire attribute spirit power, causing the entire space to become scorching hot for a moment.

  Yue Yu's internal breath cultivation was only at the second level of martial arts, so he could only temporarily avoid his edge and slightly retreat. Then, in the image interface mapped out in his mind, the auxiliary intelligent system had already given 14 different response plans in an instant. However, Yue Yu furrowed his brow, carefully distinguishing that none of these plans were feasible. Nevertheless, the analysis of the intelligent system still played a role, and the response plan it provided was not very good, but it did calculate several weaknesses of Rong Li's current situation very clearly, only without taking into account Rong Li's internal breath level as a sixth-level martial artist and his explosive power.

  And with his actual combat experience, just these are already more than enough!

  It was as if he hadn't seen it, and Ran Li's next move was another furious slash of the Demon King Axe, "Furious Slaughter". Yue Yu advanced instead of retreating in the face of the incoming flames, his sword soft and unhurried, stabbing towards Ran Li's left ribs. The latter's expression was as if he had seen a venomous snake, and he forcibly withdrew the axe slash that had been full of power and momentum, taking a step back instead, holding the axe head the size of a door panel horizontally in front of him like a shield.

  At this time, Rong Li's face was slightly pale. This was not due to the consumption of true energy, but because he had used the wrong force earlier. However, Yue Yu secretly praised him in her heart. With Rong Li's cultivation below the seventh level of martial arts, he could control the 'Great Fury Ming Wang Axe' and make it both releaseable and retractable, which was indeed extremely rare. The enormous power on this kid's body was not exaggerated.

  Next, Yue Yu took a step forward, and Ran Li would retreat one step. Surprisingly, he was able to withstand Yue Yu's seemingly powerless sword stance. However, Yue Yu was also at a loss for a while, as the Dark King's axe was good at attacking but not defending. But the axe in Ran Li's hand could be used as a shield, which made up for this weakness. The Huichen Great True Power, which cultivated both fire and earth attributes, was like a fierce flame when attacking, but also had the thick and majestic momentum of the five elements' earth when defending.

  For dozens of steps in a row, Yan Li was forced to the edge of the stream. Just as he was about to push this foolish kid into the water and take advantage of his opponent's unstable lower body to win, Yue Yu suddenly "remembered" that his purpose this time was to point out Yan Li's shortcomings in using the "Great Fury Demon King Axe", rather than simply defeating him like before.

  Xie Yi smiled apologetically at the opponent, and Yue Yu withdrew the sword from his hand. Ran Li also understood his intention and immediately turned to attack again. This time, it was exactly the fifth style of Da Nu Ming Wang Fu that he had practiced in the morning.

  Yue Yu's sword flashed slightly, and for the first time, his own weapon clashed with Rong Li's axe. However, just as the six-stage warrior's violent aura and massive power were about to be transmitted over, Yue Yu's sword body wrapped around it again, deflecting this terrifying force to one side. Due to the traction of this force, Rong Li stumbled forward several steps along with his axe.

  However, at this time, Yue Yu himself was not feeling well. This Taiji's pulling force method, in his era, as long as one was a traditional martial arts practitioner, would know it to some extent, and Yue Yu was particularly skilled in it. However, in this world, due to Yue Yu's age and some special reasons, his lower body was still somewhat unstable, let alone using force, even dissipating force was somewhat strenuous. This time, although he managed to do it with difficulty, his footsteps became disordered, stumbling and almost falling over.

  And the next few times, it was more or less the same situation. Ruan Li used the fourth to seventh forms back and forth, but without exception, he was led aside by Yue Yu every time. It wasn't until the ninth time that Ruan Li finally stopped with a look of sudden realization on his face.

  "Master, did I use too much force?"

  Ran Li scratched his hair and wiped away the cold sweat on his forehead. Earlier, Yue Yu had managed to divert his force, but due to his chaotic footsteps, he was unable to counterattack. However, if it were someone else who was equally skilled at dissipating force, all they would need to do is stab him with a sword when he lost control of his body and charged forward, and by now, he would have died countless times.

  "It's not entirely true! In short, from now on when you wield the axe, if your opponent is human, use 60% of your strength. Ali, you still need to practice your footwork. Otherwise, even a small amount of power will be hard to control."

  Sheathed his sword, Yue Yu slightly shook her head. Ran Lie's current state was like a three-year-old child swinging a giant hammer that far exceeded his body weight; it would be strange if there were no problems. To put it bluntly, the Great Fury King Axe and this 120-kilogram giant axe were still too strenuous for Ran Lie.

  "So that's how it is! Young master, I think I've figured it out a bit. In that case, even if my foundation was more solid, it probably wouldn't be of much use, right?"

  At this time, on that rough and simple face, a deep thinking expression suddenly appeared. At this moment, his eyes gave people a sense of wisdom.

  Yue Yu heard this and couldn't help but smile again. This kid was indeed clever, almost to the point of being transparent. The clan had him practice the Great Rage Demon King's Axe, not for the purpose of competing with others in strength and ferocity, but rather for dealing with the demonic beasts around Yue Family Castle. This axe technique was particularly effective against those creatures, its killing power astonishing. Especially those with average physiques and not much strength, they were simply no match for Ran Li, who was their natural enemy.

  However, when used in hand-to-hand combat, there are some problems. It's not that it can't be done, but the effect is a bit poor. After all, an axe that can't even chop a person has no use, no matter how strong its attacking power is.

  Jian Ranli was lost in thought, and Yue Yu's gaze turned to a small pit not far away. When the three Tang-style long knives appeared before his eyes, Yue Yu's left arm suddenly rose, with a strong desire to grasp them in his hand.

  He was most skilled with a knife in his past life, not the sword he now holds. He had even created a set of knife techniques called "God-slaying" on his own in the military camp without relying on computers and dominated the military camp with it. In the army's martial arts competition, he also used a three-foot military knife to suppress the heroes of the three armies.

  However, in this world, his body was surprisingly skilled at wielding a sword.

  Yue Yu glanced at Ruan Li's position with the corner of his eye. This guy was the most cunning, and extremely sensitive to Yue Yu's emotional changes. Just in this instant, he had actually run tens of meters away. He once again pretended to swing his axe, his expression restored to normal, not showing any of his previous cleverness.

  Yue Yu couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time, yet in her heart, she felt a bit regretful. If not for those few times when she had beaten him up so badly, it wouldn't have been to the point where she couldn't even find an opponent to test her skills against.
