Chapter 54: The Eight-Sided Han Sword

  "What?" The young lady was puzzled. She had never thought about this matter before, nor had she studied it. Could the cook in her own home be better than those in restaurants outside?

  Although Mo's family chef is quite good, better than ordinary restaurants, but compared to top-notch ones, it's far inferior, otherwise who would go to eat at top-notch restaurants.

  "You don't know, it's normal. Our chef is generally average in other aspects, but breakfast is quite good because no matter how you don't eat at home, usually you will have lunch and dinner outside, but in the morning you will always eat here! So, breakfast is made a bit more, and more thought is put into it." Xiangyang said with a smile.

  "Xiaoyao, you little rascal, why haven't you come to help out yet!!" Someone shouted as soon as they saw Xiaoyao. It was a common occurrence for Xiaoyao to be helping out in the kitchen, not only to get some delicious food but also to help solve his hunger problem. As a result, everyone in the kitchen was very familiar with him.

  "Liu Zige, I was up all night working yesterday, and today I just came out to find something to eat." Xiangyang replied.

  "Oh, then just take it, today's shrimp dumplings are not bad, the shrimp is very fresh!" The person who was called Liu Zi didn't mind, or rather, he was used to it. He recommended a breakfast place to Xiao Yao and continued with his own business.

  "Miss, wait here for a moment, I'll get you some steamed buns and shrimp dumplings. What else do you want to eat?"

  "Let's have another bowl of tofu brain!" The young lady looked at the busy kitchen, and only then did she realize that the kitchen staff were already up so early, now they had already prepared breakfast, what time was it before they started cooking?

  "Big sister!!" Someone discovered big sister and immediately caused a commotion of greetings.

  "You all go ahead! Don't mind me!" The young lady smiled and didn't want to disturb the busy crowd because of herself, they were already miserable enough.

  "Yes, young lady, what can I do for you?" The one who had been called Liu Zi spoke again, and it seemed that his status here was not low.

  "I have someone to take care of me, you don't need to worry about me!" The young lady replied.

  "Yes!"

  Xiaoyao helped the young lady get some things inside and also got a lot for herself...

  "My god, Xiao Yao, are you moving or something? You're taking so much!!" Liu Zi cursed when he saw the food boxes in Xiao Yao's hands, but didn't stop him.

  Even if it's usually Liu Zi, he won't stop Xiang Yao, let alone now when he's helping the young lady.

  "Not many, just three servings!"

  Xiaoyao's response was not for Liu Zi, he wouldn't care about Liu Zi's attitude. This was for the eldest sister, and she was also very suspicious of Xiaoyao bringing so many things.

  "For three people?"

  "Hmm, you and me, plus the boss, three people!" Xiao Yao replied.

  "Oh, that's perfect! Let's go have breakfast at Seventh Sister's place and sleep over there today!" The young lady said with a yawn.

  It can be seen from a word that the big sister is not sleeping in Lone Star for the first time, and Xiao Yao can guess that the big sister is likely to be drunk.

  Xiaoyao nodded and said, "Mm, let's go. Where are we going to eat? This little foodie must have gone out to play again, never mind!"

  But after the two of them left, not long after, a very sharp and shrill cry came from the kitchen, the penetrating power and spread range of that cry were quite frightening!!

  "Seriously!! How many times have I told you, keep your snacks out of the kitchen, especially before meals!!!"

  “……”

  ……

  In the early morning, Gu Xing, as usual, got up, washed and dressed, then practiced his Ming Yu Gong, followed by some swordplay and palm techniques. After that, he prepared to make his own breakfast.

  Lone Star doesn't like to trouble others, and there's no one she can trouble either. The best solution is to take matters into her own hands!

  This is the start of a day for a lone cultivator, followed by cultivation, cooking and eating, more cultivation, cooking and eating again, continued cultivation, bathing, and then sleeping while still cultivating...

  This is Lone Star's day, every day is like this, unless there are special circumstances, and generally it's because Xiao Yao has come or Xiao Yao lets her do something.

  In the life of a lone star, there is nothing but cultivation and carefree wandering!

  Both are what she likes, and practicing can bring her joy, letting her immerse herself in the martial way. This isn't for anyone else's sake, nor is it to prove anything; she simply set a goal for herself that interests her!

  Martial arts pinnacle is her life's goal!!

  For freedom, she can give up this goal, fortunately there is no conflict between the two!!

  "Lonely Star Sword of the Lonely Star Beyond the Heavens!"

  A lone star in mid-air unleashed a very simple sword move, but no one could deny the power beneath that simplicity...

  Continue...

  Based on past experience, Gu Xing would continue practicing, as there were still moves from the Lonely Star Swordsmanship to master. However, today she stopped and simply stared in one direction, waiting - that was the direction of the entrance, solely because she had heard the sound of two people talking.

  And these two voices were familiar to her...

  "Miss, you really can eat a lot! This shrimp dumpling is almost finished by you, leave some for the boss!!"

  "Get out! Who can eat, we martial artists need to eat more, it's normal. Besides, how many trays of shrimp dumplings have you had, and yet you still dare to say that to me!!"

  "I'm not eating because I see you're so good at it, I'm afraid if I don't eat now, there won't be anything left for me!!"

  "Go get some more after you've finished eating! To be honest, these shrimp dumplings are really good!!"

  "Of course, I'm right, aren't I? The breakfast at our own home is much more delicious!!"

  "Mmm!"

  The voices of the two people got closer and closer, and soon Gu Xing heard footsteps, followed by seeing Xiao Yao enter the yard with a food box.

  "Boss, come and eat quickly, or else the young lady will finish everything!!"

  Xiaoyao immediately said after entering, and quickly put the breakfast in the food box on the stone table in the courtyard. Although a lot was eaten by the eldest sister and him, it could still fill this not-too-big-or-small stone table.

  "You're different from yesterday, why?" Lonely Star asked the elder sister a sentence, then started eating, and didn't know if her words needed an answer, maybe she just asked casually.

  "I didn't sleep all night yesterday, I'm a bit out of spirits, I'll go to sleep later!" The young lady replied.

  "No, it's not this!" Lone Star shook his head and said.

  "Isn't that right? Can you sense that I've gained insight, that I've become stronger? No way, even I can only feel it a little bit!" The young lady asked unexpectedly, although it's true that some masters can sense such things when someone gains insight.

  But those are all top-notch masters, and Lone Star is only a few levels, completely not enough. That's to say, her feeling for martial arts is very high, high to the point of being enviable.

  No wonder, no wonder she didn't rely on her family and only relied on herself, yet already possessed strength far surpassing her own!!

  Although yesterday's strength could let oneself rise to a higher level, for the girl in front of him, he was still not enough, far from enough!!

  It's really pathetic to think that when I met a genius, I found that my previous advantages had become someone else's advantages and became my own shortcomings.

  Fortunately, the young lady was not very concerned about this. As long as she had the ability to dominate Qingyun City, that was enough for her. She didn't want to dominate Tianfeng Country yet and didn't need too much martial power!!

  It's precisely because of this that her realization this time didn't make her overly excited, at most just a little excited. This mindset, however, resonated with the effortless state of mind in martial arts, allowing her to progress rapidly even if her innate talent wasn't necessarily higher than others.

  "There's a feeling, I feel your breath is more natural than yesterday, but the strength can't be felt." said Gu Xing, while eating a few shrimp dumplings and telling Xiao Yao that they were delicious.

  "This time's realization is only in the form, not the heart method, but it will still be helpful for future heart method cultivation." Xīao explained, then continued eating.

  "You're still eating? You just ate so much!!" said the big sister while she herself was still devouring her food.

  "You're no different! I'm doing physical labor, it's tiring and I need to replenish my energy, what about you?" Xiangyao replied while eating.

  "I'm tired of watching you work too!"

  “……”

  Ignore this woman, after eating and drinking freely, he began to take out the things in his package, the unfinished sword body, polishing tools.

  Let's start and keep polishing!!

  He has already rested for a while, so it's no big deal if he doesn't sleep today. He often did this in the past, using his mental discipline to replace sleep.

  The big sister just looked at the sword in Xiao Yao's hand with a puzzled expression, she felt that she had some questions to ask, but couldn't remember what they were. She thought maybe it was because she was too tired, so she sat down on the ground and meditated like Xiao Yao, calming her mind!

  The elder sister's method is much more effective than the carefree one, which only closes its eyes and cultivates its spirit. Although it also runs the heart method, it doesn't dare to invest too much, because it may be interrupted at any time.

  And the big sister, she is completely in a state of concentration, and will only wake up when she herself wakes up. She will temporarily isolate herself from external noises, unless there is something that poses a danger to her.

  “……”

  Xiaoyao saw the big sister like this, and shook her head with a bit of helplessness. This big sister was too casual, if someone disturbed her, she would suffer damage, lightly it would be meridian reversal, severely it would be fire deviation.

  Maybe this is also her trust in us!!

  Xiaoyao smiled faintly and continued to hone the sword's edge, while Gu Xing'er on the other side didn't pay attention to Big Sister's behavior, nor did she respond to Xiaoyao. She began her cultivation once again.

  ……

  "So cool, so comfortable!!"

  It's also unknown how long had passed when the eldest sister woke up, seeing that the sun was still not at its peak, while Xiao Yao was still sharpening his sword and Gu Xing was still practicing his sword.

  Neither of them paid attention to the older sister who let out a comfortable sigh, oh, it was her voice, not a moan!
