Xuan Luo’s attacking sequence was far too simple. If it weren’t for his nei li, he would not be able to fight back at all.
He was not born with G.o.d-like power, and since he is only thirteen years old, his strength is limited. But for the past couple of days, the overflowing nei li has spread throughout his body. Hence, it has silently raised his strength.
But Xuan Luo does not know any fighting style. Although Master Li gave him a book, he barely had time to go through it. That is why he could only use simple fist moves. But his simple techniques are quite useless. The man’s style is way too intense. The man moves like the cloud and water (idiom). The stress on Xuan Luo increased substantially. It’s as if the man wanted to get rid of his shame (how he was defeated from before). Facing Xuan Luo, the man is giving it his all.
Bang.
After just a few rounds, Xuan Luo was struck and crashed into a nearby tree.
Xuan Luo’s face redden. He did not expect the man to have so much strength. Likewise, he never thought he would be unable to fight back.
Each time he is about to get hit, he tries to block. But that hasn’t worked out very well; because the moment he makes a move, his opponent’s fist changes again. Xuan Luo couldn’t even see what was happening; that is why he got beaten so badly.
“Ha! You think you can defeat me? I, Hu Han, have never been afraid of anyone. You’re just a doll. If I wasn’t careless last time, you would have never won!” Hu Han sneered at Xuan Luo. His tone is full of arrogance.
The fallen Xuan Luo struggled to get up. But that doesn’t mean he has given up. Since practicing nei li, he has become much stronger.
There is a very clear line between Martial Artists who have nei li and those who don’t. Many of those who are able to practice nei li becomes jiang hu‘s powerful people.
Not everyone can practice nei li though. It depends on one’s innate talent. Without the innate ability, it wouldn’t matter how many thousands of nei gong xin fa books are in front of you. The spells would be like garbage, because there would be no impact.
Xuan Luo stared at Hu Han; thinking, if only I could come up with a full sequence, then I can definitely change the outcome.
But he had only briefly skimmed through the book Master Li had given him. He coulduse it, but first of all, he definitely lacked the practice; and secondly, even if did he use it, his opponent could probably see right through it and defeat him.
At this moment, though, he doesn’t have any other choice. It’s either do or die.
Xuan Luo closes his eyes. The sequences flash through his mind. In his mind, there appears to be a person showing him each and every move.
He stands still. He is trying to figure out which moves he should lead with and how he can break his opponent’s sequence. Within a matter of seconds, Xuan Luo opened his eyes again.
Hu Han is still standing at the same spot. Seeing Xuan Luo on the ground, he had lost the golden opportunity to strike. From now on, he no longer has an advantage.
With great speed, Xuan Luo charges at Hu Han. His fist knows what to do now; it has come alive.
Hu Han was shocked by Xuan Luo’s sudden outburst. He takes a step back and quickly tries to block.
Although the quan fa only flashed through Xuan Luo’s mind, his foundation in Martial Arts was very good. Hence he was able to quickly get into the right mindset to fight.
Gradually, his attacks became faster and faster. Hu Han’s defence was getting weaker and weaker.
Bang.
Xuan Luo struck Hu Han with an uppercut and he flew. The fist was powered by nei li, and it was much more powerful than before…
Hu Han spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. He looked at Xuan Luo in disbelief. Originally he thought he was just careless, but now, there is only astonishment in his eyes.
Hu Han is in his thirties. He has been in jiang hu for quite some time now. There are things that he can see very clearly, and at this moment, he can only describe Xuan Luo as a genius.
A witch or devil type of genius. Hu Han doesn’t want to admit it, but that is what it seems like to him.
If Xuan Luo was capable of such sequence, why didn’t he use it earlier? Why was Xuan Luo using such simple attacks before? He didn’t show any of this beforehand. Is he hiding something? Or…
No. It’s not possible.
He’s probably just a genius.
At this moment, a laughter echoed through the air. “Haha! Hu Han! I was wondering who it was that defeated you? It’s this little boy, eh? Your skills must have deteriorated!”
Hearing the laughter, Xuan Luo’s face immediately darkened. Although he can’t tell if it’s a foe or friend; based on his context, the man is probably part of Hu Han’s group.
As he came closer, Xuan Luo could see that the man is also in his thirties. He looks similar to Hu Han, but his physique is far more superior.
The man approaches Xuan Luo and jeers, “You little doll. You have quite some power. You managed to beat Han lao san! Bright future ahead of you!”
The man pats Xuan Luo on the shoulder; his face is still wearing a smile. But Xuan Luo doesn’t feel the same. Although the pat appeared to be light and friendly, it actually hurt his shoulder. If his physique had not improved, he would have fallen apart.
“You…you are part of his group?” Xuan Luo asked the man. His eyes show no signs of weakness.
“Ha!” The man laughed. “I guess so! He is my younger brother. But, I do see a lot of potential in you. Your quan fa is quite profound!”
Xuan Luo knows what he wants now. This man wants his quan fa.
“If you hand me the quan fa book, I’ll let you go! If not….” The man intently stares at Xuan Luo.
Just as he had expected…
Xuan Luo absolutely hates being threatened. Since he is only thirteen, he isn’t exactly mature yet. Things can easily irritate him.
“Ha! You think I would hand it over? If you want to fight, then fight!” Xuan Luo said angrily. With a back flip, he separated a distance between him and the man.
