Chapter 310: Chapter 309: The Secret in Time (2) Chapter 310: Chapter 309: The Secret in Time (2) Qi Yue had no choice but to accompany Gu Huai in practicing swordsmanship first.

Although Gu Huai had claimed he was only an amateur, after exchanging a few moves with him, Qi Yue discovered that his coordination was excellent, his movements clean and decisive, without any hint of dragging or lagging, and they exuded a dominance that didn’t match his usual style.

This style…

Uh, why does this style seem so similar to hers?

The habits in wielding a sword, the patterns in countering moves, were almost like a replica of her own; even some small gestures and details were identical, renewing the sense of familiarity she had noticed three years ago.

As Qi Yue contemplated this, Gu Huai’s sword suddenly turned, aiming a strike at her lower body.

Fortunately, Qi Yue reacted swiftly, barely evading his attack a second before the tip of his sword could land.

At the same time, Qi Yue was shocked to find that Gu Huai’s move was…

“Fierce Tiger Descending the Mountain?”

And it was a very perfect execution of Fierce Tiger Descending the Mountain.

Three years ago, when Gu Huai had a match with Chu Mufan, there was a move that was very much like Fierce Tiger Descending the Mountain, but in the end, she was mistaken, and Gu Huai had even injured his wrist by Chu Mufan.

But now, the move Gu Huai performed was actually that same move?

What’s going on?

Was it just a coincidence?

While Qi Yue was stunned, Gu Huai had already unleashed several moves in succession, and each one was all too familiar to her.

All were…

moves she had created herself.

Qi Yue focused her mind, trying to knock Gu Huai’s sword out of his hand with a flying pick, but from earlier on, he seemed to have a worm in her stomach, predicting exactly where her sword would land.

Sure enough, this time, he neutralized her move before she could strike.

Moreover, the move he used was Falling Peach Blossom Shadow!

“Falling Peach Blossom Shadow?!”

If it was one or two moves, it might be a coincidence, but so many times, it could no longer be a coincidence.

Most of the moves Qi Yue had created herself were named in a style like “Fierce Tiger Descending the Mountain”; Falling Peach Blossom Shadow was the only one with a different style of name.

Because she did not come up with this name herself.

The person who had named it for her told her that this name came from Jin Yong’s wuxia novels, “Falling Peach Blossom Shadow makes the divine sword fly, the green sea’s tides rise to the tune of a jade flute.”

Qi Yue was dumbfounded: “These… where did you learn these from? How come they’re all my moves? Especially Fierce Tiger Descending the Mountain, which is my original creation and can absolutely not be learned unless I personally teach it by hand, and Falling Peach Blossom Shadow is even more difficult…”

Previously, many junior brothers had begged to learn from her, but not one had succeeded.

Gu Huai’s eyes flickered slightly; he slowly sheathed his sword, gazing intently at the girl: “That’s right, you taught me by hand.”

“How is that possible, I don’t even remember teaching you yet? Could I have done it in my dreams?” Qi Yue began to question if she was so busy she’d gotten amnesia.

Gu Huai stared at his sword, sighed, and then gave a wry smile, “Qi Yue, actually, I am quite conflicted; I am relieved that you did not recognize me, but also somewhat disappointed that you did not…”

Qi Yue scratched her head, feeling even more confused, “Wait, wait, what do you mean I didn’t recognize you? Could it be that we knew each other before A University, but I forgot about you? That can’t be! My memory can’t be that bad!”

Moreover, Gu Huai was so striking wherever he went. If they had interacted before, it was impossible for her not to have any recollection of him.

Qi Yue pressed her hands together: “Great Master, could you give me a hint?”

Gu Huai’s long fingers picked up the girl’s hand, placing it near his lips, his warm breath touching her fingertips as he spoke: “Didn’t the master say she would only take me as a disciple? Did you take on others afterward?”
