Список самых красивых мужчин в мире боевых искусств

Глава 65

The handsome young man's right eye also had a dark circle.

Tang Qingliu squatted on the ground: "Nineteen, don't go out when it's raining and thundering, or you might get struck by lightning."

Seeing his aggrieved expression, Tang Shijiu thought it was as if she had misunderstood. She figured the old man didn't have any lewd intentions, just a fondness for young girls. So she said, "Sir, don't just grab people's hands and touch their faces like that. I guess you're not that kind of lewd old man, but that doesn't mean other girls don't think so. Next time you're out in the street and see a pretty young woman, don't be so clingy; you might get sent to the authorities for a beating."

Tang Qingliu gasped, "Nineteen, what are you thinking? I'm good to you because..." Although he had imagined the touching scene of father and daughter recognizing each other a thousand times in his mind, when he actually looked at Tang Nineteen, the words "I am your father" turned into "I am an old friend of your master".

Tang Shijiu sighed helplessly: "Even if I am your daughter, you can't look me up and down with a lustful look, hold my hand, and pinch my face all at once. Uncle, I'm not trying to be mean, but you're already in your forties and still haven't found a wife. I guess it's because of this love of touching young girls."

Tang Qingliu really didn't know how to explain it to her, so she wrote a letter to her master, hoping that Ge Yang could explain it to her a little. After all, she was raised by Ge Yang, so it was convenient for her to talk to him.

After probing her internal martial arts, he was 80% certain that the master of Xiaoyao Manor was Ge Yang.

Only a genius like Ge Yang could transform the Tuanfu Xin Dafa into an orthodox internal energy cultivation method, and do so so smoothly.

“Take this to your master and tell him that he has never forgotten his old friend and feels ashamed and guilty day and night.”

Nineteen looked at Tang Qingliu in disbelief: "Grandpa... what have you done that makes you feel ashamed and guilty towards my master!"

Tang Qingliu felt a little guilty: "Children should stay out of adults' emotional matters!"

He couldn't just tell her directly, "You are the child I had with your master's wife!"

The ambiguous attitude and flickering gaze added a touch of inquiry to Tang Shijiu's eyes. For some reason, she recalled the attitude of those playboy young masters towards Tianxiu at the Jinxiu Medical Clinic: "I think I probably know why you still can't find a wife..."

After practicing kung fu for five or six days, Tang Shijiu felt she had benefited greatly. However, she still discovered that although the key techniques taught by Tang Qingliu allowed her to use external force against others without internal energy, the effect was no better than when she had internal energy. It must be said that her master's method of teaching internal energy techniques was extremely strange. He only taught everyone the basic breathing techniques and then ordered his disciples to memorize the contents of the manual and try to understand it on their own. Therefore, the disciples of Xiaoyao Manor had varying levels of internal energy foundation, which was likely related to the method of practice.

Having descended the mountain for some time, Tang Shijiu was no longer the naive and foolish girl she had just entered the martial world; she now thought things through more carefully. Remembering Tang Qingliu's words that her master probably didn't understand the cultivation method very well either, an absurd thought popped into her head.

Could it be that Master deliberately allowed his disciples to ponder this privately without guidance as a form of experimentation... to discover the true path of cultivation for the Mind-Supporting Method...?

This idea startled Tang Shijiu. In that case, his master was not the gentle and kind master he usually was, and they were just a group of guinea pigs testing internal energy cultivation methods!

Chapter 41 Interrogation (Part 1)

Tang Shijiu lost his appetite at the thought of his master using himself and his fellow disciples as test subjects. Tang Yu sighed as he looked at the lunch he had barely touched.

Since learning that Shen Yuntan was a hermit, Nineteen hadn't reacted excessively, remaining rather indifferent and seemingly deliberately avoiding the topic. However, due to a woman's innate sensitivity, Tang Yu still sensed the change in Nineteen.

So when Nineteen lowered his eyes and asked thoughtfully, "Yu Yu, if one day I betray you, will you hate me?" Tang Yu was not surprised at all.

If the martial arts world transformed Tang Shijiu from naive to foolish to slightly smarter, then Shen Yuntan greatly reduced Shijiu's trust in others.

To put it more bluntly, she may no longer... completely and wholeheartedly trust others.

Even Tang Yu, who had been in the underworld for many years, was unsure whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.

Tang Yu gently squatted down, just like when Nineteen squatted down to comfort her at the inn, and held Nineteen's hand: "I believe you won't betray me, because you are Jiu Jiu."

Nineteen raised her head, slightly twitched the corners of her mouth, but did not smile.

Tang Yu said slowly and deliberately, "Because I know Jiu Jiu, I understand Jiu Jiu, so I trust Jiu Jiu. Jiu Jiu won't harm Yu Yu, it's an unspoken understanding."

Just like her unwavering belief that Mr. Tianshu would not harm Tang Yu.

After a long while, Nineteen gently patted her hand and smiled, "Thank you, Yu Yu."

Even if their master had not taught them the correct cultivation method, Tang Shijiu thought back carefully and realized that although his junior brothers and sisters lacked internal strength, they were all physically strong. Over the years, he had never heard of any disciple suffering from qi deviation due to improper cultivation.

Even if it's not a traditional method of strengthening the mind, it won't cause any harm.

She was indeed somewhat traumatized by Shen Yuntan. If it were Tang Shijiu before she went down the mountain, she would never have had such wild thoughts, believing that whoever she thought was a good person would remain pure and innocent for life.

Perhaps the fault wasn't with him at all, but rather because she had never truly understood Shen Yuntan.

Concealing their presence for self-protection while using the opportunity to get closer.

What Shen Yun was doing was nothing more than the unspoken rules that had been followed in the martial arts world for a long time. However, she, a completely unaware newcomer, broke the rules and hurt herself.

Tang Diruo and Tang Diku arrived at the villa in a huff on a sunny afternoon. Tang Shijiu had just come out of the secret room and was about to take a nap when he saw Tang Yu standing in the flower garden with his hands hanging down, looking somewhat worried.

Tang Shijiu picked at his ear and said, "Let them come. I'll just do whatever Tang Qingliu taught me. If they ask me anything, I'll just say I don't know."

There was a slight regret in my heart, though. If I got through this hurdle, I would have to leave the Tang Clan and would never see Tang Qingliu again.

Although Tang Qingliu said that if his master read the letter and said "forgive me," he would return to the martial world and harm young girls (the last five words were added by Tang Shijiu himself), Shijiu still felt somewhat disappointed.

Tang Diruo stood solemnly and waited, while Tang Diku sat upright and serious—although the former held a higher position, the latter's power was clearly much greater.

Tang Shijiu looked at the two elderly people, gave them a perfunctory bow, and said nothing.

Tang Diruo had a fiery temper. Before even asking any serious questions, he grabbed Tang Chongli and asked, "Did you hurt her?"

Tang Chongli waved her hands repeatedly: "Second Grandfather, no, no, I fell by accident."

Tang Shijiu raised an eyebrow. This young lady actually had a time to cover for others? But her cover-up was really poor; such an obvious sword wound couldn't possibly have been revealed by a fall. Considering Tang Yu's position in the Tang Clan, Tang Shijiu took the blame without hesitation: "This injury was indeed caused by me."

This is true; Tang Yu did indeed injure someone because of Shijiu.

Tang Chongli is Tang Diku's biological granddaughter. Before Tang Diku could do anything, Tang Diruo was already furious. If it weren't for his delicate granddaughter tugging at his clothes, he probably would have already pounced on him and given Shijiu a good beating.

Although he had recently mastered the art of using an opponent's force against them, Tang Shijiu still felt somewhat uneasy facing the Tang Clan's experts without the Xuanbei Blade in hand.

Tang Di waved his hand dismissively, stopping his second brother from making a scene: "Miss Tang, there's probably some misunderstanding here, so we won't pursue it further. However, we would appreciate it if Miss Tang could tell us the whereabouts of Shenyin and Tuanfu Heart Sutra."

When he spoke, he had the air of someone in charge of a great family.

"Shenyin is ruthless and wicked, a treacherous figure in the martial world, deserving of everyone's wrath. Tuanfu Heart Method has some connection with the Tang Clan. Please, Miss Nineteen, inform us of its whereabouts to comfort our ancestors."
