The one who spoke was a seventeen or eighteen year old girl. Her jet-black hair was tied into a ball, without a single piece of hair ornament or broken. She was clean and concise, and her pair of large eyes were shining like the stars.
The old man was over his middle years old and was wearing an ancient loose training uniform. His clothes were fluttering in the wind. Hearing the words of the lady, the elder nodded his head lightly. Upon seeing the elder agree, the lady lightly swiped her fingers across her palm and with a sweep of her feet, she soared into the air and started on her demonstration.
The girl could see that she was somewhat intelligent. Her moves were as smooth as flowing water. When she struck out, there was a sense of elegance and beauty within her resolute determination. This was probably some of the martial arts on Earth.
Following that, the girl leaped into the air and landed with a slight tremble. From the looks of it, this girl had quite a bit of skill, and she had even trained quite well. However, this was only considered a show in terms of Sky Dragon Continent.
Zhong Ming looked at the time and saw that it was 5 in the morning. When he came out of his room, it was already 7. Zhong Ming had yet to reach the stage where he would eat Fasting, so food was still important. After not eating for a day and a night, his stomach started to growl a little. What Zhong Ming needed to do now was to quickly replenish his food.
Zhong Ming walked out of the fake mountain and planned to head out of the school gate.
"Halt!"
As he passed by the girl, he heard her cry.
Zhong Ming looked at the girl. The girl's expression was not friendly at all, causing Zhong Ming to frown. Zhong Ming did not want to care about this girl, but just as he was about to step forward, the girl flashed and stood in front of him to block his path.
"How dare you peek at me cultivate!" The girl lifted her chin and spoke in an extremely domineering tone.
"I'm not interested." Zhong Ming directly circled around the girl and continued to walk.
"Who do you think you are? You think you can just come and go as you please?" Seeing Zhong Ming's indifferent look, the girl was even more furious, and directly threw a palm towards Zhong Ming.
Zhong Ming easily dodged the girl's palm.
The old man's eyes immediately lit up.
The girl also looked at Zhong Ming in astonishment, not daring to believe that an ordinary person like him would be able to avoid her palm strike.
Zhong Ming's five senses had now improved greatly, to Zhong Ming, this normal person's speed was like a slow motion play.
With the information he had gathered before, Zhong Ming knew that this girl's Qi Cultivation Method was a kind of Qi Cultivation Method that could be used both internally and externally. Although the girl's palm had only reached the third level, an ordinary person would have been able to lie at home for one or two weeks. The lady thought that she knew a bit of kung fu, yet she still acted so arrogantly and rudely to the point of hurting others. This made Zhong Ming a little angry.
Without waiting for Zhong Ming to speak, just at this time, the girl attacked again with her palm that had 80% of her power. This time, Zhong Ming did not dodge. Instead, he stood still and did not move, as he suffered this palm strike solidly. At this moment, the girl was knocked back several steps by a force. She staggered for a long time before the old man was able to support her.
The girl was slightly regretful. The other party's skill was clearly above hers. He had even blocked the other person's path, saying that the other person had peeked at him while he was cultivating. Was there a need to peek?
Zhong Ming looked coldly and was just about to leave, when the old man from earlier walked over and said embarrassedly, "My granddaughter has been spoiled. Today's matter is my granddaughter's fault, let me apologize for it. I'll teach her a lesson when we get back. "
Zhong Ming waved his hand, "It's alright!"
Seeing the fearful look in the girl's eyes, he knew that she had learnt her lesson. No matter who it was, as long as they cultivated in martial arts, they had to have martial arts virtue. He was not fit to be a martial cultivator just because he was bullying the weak. The girl's nature was not bad. She had just been pampered since she was young, and with her unique skills, she had become somewhat unruly and willful. Zhong Ming didn't seem to make things too difficult for her.
With such a high cultivation base and such a kind heart at such a young age, the old man liked him the more he looked at it.
"Please wait!" Seeing that Zhong Ming was about to leave, the old man became anxious.
"This old man has a presumptuous request. I wonder if little friend can show me some face."
Right now, Zhong Ming was already thinking of a way to eat more. Being stopped by the old man for a spar, Zhong Ming had no interest at all. Just as he was thinking about how to reject the offer.
When the girl saw that her grandfather wanted to compete with Zhong Ming, she immediately became spirited. After all, her grandfather was a true expert. No matter what, he couldn't be a match for his grandfather. The face he had lost, grandpa would definitely get it back for him. He was waiting to see how his own grandfather would teach Zhong Ming a lesson, so how could he let this opportunity slip by so easily?
"Do you not dare to? As long as you do not dare to admit defeat! "
The old man looked at his granddaughter sternly. Seeing that Zhong Ming did not say anything, he thought that Zhong Ming was probably afraid that he would injure her and quickly added:
"This old man guarantees that it will be purely a spar in martial skills, I ask you to be at ease." This old man will not hurt little friend. " The old man's tone was sincere.
Zhong Ming was a little speechless. It seemed that if they did not compete today, this old man would not let him go so quickly.
"I'll let you have three moves, three rounds and two victories--" The old man slowly said.
Before the old man could finish, "No need, the faster the better! "Let's decide the match in a single round!"
After saying that, Zhong Ming stood properly, the old man and the girl looked at Zhong Ming in disbelief. This young man sure knew how to boast, he actually didn't need to give in, and still had to decide the victor. Was he sure he could win?
"Alright!"
Afterwards, the old man was also ready. The girl looked at the two in the middle excitedly, waiting for Zhong Ming to be viciously beaten by her grandfather.
"Little friend, please make your move!"
"Bring it on!"
"Then, this old man shall not be courteous!"
After speaking, the old man drew a circle with his feet, he kicked out with his leg at an angle, causing Zhong Ming to dodge to the side.
After which, the old man moved his fingers and struck out with the same palm strike. Although this palm strike was ferocious without a single punch, it was also ever-changing, catching the old man unawares. If this palm were to hit an ordinary person's body, he would have to cough out a small mouthful of blood. After recuperating for half a month, the old man had used fifty percent of his strength because he had seen Zhong Ming's performance just now. He felt that fifty percent of his strength still wasn't enough to harm him.
The old man's vigorous and powerful palm struck towards Zhong Ming's chest, but the moment the palm came into contact with Zhong Ming, the old man was immediately flung half a meter away by an unparalleled force. He had also taken a step back, but he still plopped down on the ground.
Seeing this, the girl ran over to support the old man, but was stopped by the old man's hand. The old man tried his best to stand up, but failed to do so twice. The last time he used a bit of strength, he actually spat out some blood from his mouth. Bright red blood dripped down from the old man's snow-white beard onto the ground. It was a shocking sight to behold. Seeing the bloodstains on the corner of her grandpa's mouth, the girl cried out in heartache.
Zhong Ming had only sent the old man flying and did not use too many Genuine Qi. Logically speaking, the old man shouldn't be so heavily injured.
At the moment, Zhong Ming intended to place his hand on the old man's wrist to check on the situation, but was knocked down by the girl.
"My grandfather was just sparring with you, do you have to use such a heavy hand? "Woo woo …"
"Even if I've offended you before, you don't need to take revenge on my grandpa."
At this time, the girl was looking at Zhong Ming with hatred. Her parents had been busy with business since she was young. He had grown up by his grandfather's side. His grandfather had been the best to him since he was young. The girl could not imagine how she would live without her grandfather.
"Child, I don't blame you … Cough cough … your voice must not be disrespectful … it must be grandpa … grandpa …" The old man's face suddenly turned red, it was hard for him to breathe, and he almost fainted.
"Grandpa, grandpa …" The girl was so anxious that she didn't know what to do.
"Old man, don't say anything for now. Let me take a look for you."
Zhong Ming ignored the girl's objections and placed his long finger on the old man's wrist, inspecting it carefully. He discovered that there was an old injury in the old man's body that had been blown away. There was already a large amount of blood in his body. If he didn't treat it promptly, his life would be in danger. The old man was no longer in a hurry to perform the surgery. By the time he was on the operating table, it would be too late.
"Old man, you are in danger, please do not move, I will treat you."
In order to prevent the blood from flowing too fast and losing too much blood, Zhong Ming immediately flattened the old man on the ground without saying a word, took out the silver needles he brought along with him, and quickly took out the acupuncture points. His fingers fluttered like butterflies above the old man's head. It looked like it was easy to find the acupoints, but it was accurate and fast.
Even though she didn't know Chinese medicine, she knew of the acupuncture points when she followed her grandfather to cultivate. He saw that the young man was actually able to find the acupuncture points so accurately and use them so freely. The medical god must be very surprised even if Wang Dongshan saw him, right? Other than training, Chinese medicine techniques focused on precipitation. How many years could a boy of Zhong Ming's age have precipitation?
Zhong Ming set up the silver needle and then mobilized the Genuine Qi, allowing a bit of the Genuine Qi to slowly pour into the needle. The silver needle was like a magic trick, sinking a finger into the skin at a speed visible to the naked eye. Very quickly, the old wounds that had split open within the old man's body began to heal once more.
It was a very serious injury that had already injured his heart, lungs, and bones. However, it had been treated very strictly. The old man's body was already pretty good, so it was hard to tell on the surface. According to Zhong Ming's estimations, this injury must have lasted for at least twenty years. And if Zhong Ming guessed correctly, even if he did not relapse today, there were only two years left before the injury would naturally recur. At that time, the old man would lose his life.
Zhong Ming poured the last of the Genuine Qi into his mouth. The old man suddenly sat up, his eyes opened wide, and a mouthful of black sticky blood sprayed out from his mouth. Immediately, the old man collapsed and fainted.
"What did you do to my grandpa!" The girl pushed Zhong Ming away and looked at the old man worriedly.
The girl was a little regretful that she didn't stop Zhong Ming at the time. Seeing how he was so young yet didn't seem to have great medical skills, what should she do now that her grandfather had vomited so much blood?
Zhong Ming did not care about the girl, and slowly began to pull out the needles. The girl was surprised to find that the old man's face had slowly turned rosy. With a single breath, he felt much more comfortable.
The old man was like a completely different person from when he had just been critically ill. He didn't look like a person who was seriously ill at the moment.
Did I really misunderstand him?
"Yinyin —" The old man opened his eyes. Although he had been unconscious, he was very clear about what had happened to his body.
He looked around and asked, "Where is the young man who saved me?"
The girl was overjoyed to see her grandfather open his eyes. "Isn't it just —?" Where was he?
The girl quickly stood up and looked around, but she could no longer see Zhong Ming.
