The fourth of Sun Tzus 36 strategies of war is to wait for the enemy with peace of mind. (TL Notes: Sun Tzu was a Chinese military general, strategist, philosopher, and writer who lived during the Eastern Zhou period. Link to 36 strategies. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thirty-Six_Stratagems)

The fourth strategy is to wait for the enemy. Naturally, Chu Chu does not know military tactics. But she understands that in a fight between masters, ordinary moves cannot distinguish the top from the bottom. And the fight is about profound internal strength, and the fight is about this and that.

Now she was lying comfortably on the ground, while He Yunxiao had to keep a firm grip on the right hand to prevent herself from breaking free at any time.

This was bound to be not long-lasting.

When he gets tired, she can break free, or maybe hell be smart and admit defeat sooner.

Either way, the victory will definitely be hers.

How could I lose to He Yunxiao, a mere eighth-ranked martial artist, when I could defeat him at the drop of a hat?

Just when Chu Chu was comfortably waiting for He Yunxiao to admit defeat, this ignorant man, why else, suddenly began to sing a song.

The sun always shines after the rain and wind, there is a clear sky over the dark clouds, cherish all the touches

Chu Chu hadnt heard anything like this and frowned and asked, What are you doing?

He Yunxiao looked like he was winning with pleasure and smiled, Singing.

This song, The sun always shines after the rain, was the song He Yunxiao used to play every time he took an exam during his secondary school years. It can be said that it is closely related to psychological and physical torture.

He Yunxiaos left hand increased its strength at this time, holding Chu Chus right hand in a firm grip to prevent her from struggling desperately for her life.

Then he put his face in front of Chu Chus and said like a devil, Lord Chu Chu. How about we call it a draw? I apologise to you, and you dont kill Fan Ziruo.

Chu Chu coldly snorted, Impossible.

When He Yunxiao looked at her like this, his heart burst with joy.

Last time, in the Spring Breeze Mansion, he tricked Chu Chu once to get a promise from her. This time he had to make a fortune from her!

No matter what else, Fan Ziruo, she must not be killed.

Lord Chu Chu, do you know that on the upper abdomen of a person, there is an acupoint called the Moisture Point?

Chu Chus face was calm.

As a top expert, she knew every part of her body like the back of her hand. This thing, the Moisture Point, was naturally known to her.

This place was not very important to martial arts practitioners, so she did not understand what He Yunxiao was doing by mentioning this acupoint.

He Yunxiao continued, This acupoint is not usually useful. Sometimes, it is supplemented with acupuncture when treating abdominal pain, regurgitation, or spleen deficiency.

Chu Chu furrowed her brows.

She had sensed a hint that something was wrong.

After taking a big detour, He Yunxiao finally stated his dreadful purpose: By the way, it has another inconspicuous use, diuretic.

Chu Chu, who had always been untouchable, finally paled slightly at this point.

It was said in the novel biography that those who had become immortal could open up the five elements and remain untainted by mortal dust. Although she was highly skilled in martial arts, she was still a mortal, and some mundane matters were inevitable.

Only 39. I told you, she cant possibly like me.

So why did she have to kill Fan Ziruo?

He Yunxiao couldnt understand.

But he couldnt understand it. If he didnt understand it, Ziruo would be gone, he had to understand it!

He Yunxiao decided to review what he had said to Chu Chu.

After thinking carefully, He Yunxiao was enlightened.

He realized that although he had coaxed Chu Chu every time, he had actually been coaxing her from the perspective of the winner. It was all assuming that he was the winner and she was the loser, and then he had condescended to give in and coax her like that, no wonder she couldnt stand it.

It has to be the other way around!

Assume that you cant beat her and shes the winner, then ask her for something!

Tone of voice, it has to be a tone of hopelessness!

Emotions were brewing, He Yunxiao slowly spoke.

Chu Chu, are you still not going to admit defeat?

Chu Chu was categorically not of a nature willing to admit defeat, she gritted her teeth and said fiercely, I havent lost!

Cant you just let me have my way for once?

Hearing He Yunxiao say that, Chu Chus tone was indeed much softer.

Losing is losing, winning is winning. Each according to their abilities, there is no such thing as giving in to each other.

He Yunxiao thought silently in his heart: suppose he cant beat her. Suppose he cant beat her. Suppose he cant beat her

Chu Chu, weve fought several times, and I havent beaten you once, and I just want to win you once. I almost won this time, but

You can already be proud of yourself for pushing me like this, so whats so unsatisfying about it.

Unfortunately, its always a little short.

Know that you are slightly behind, just work hard.

He Yunxiao felt that it was almost time to ask her for something, so he sighed and said, Lord Chu Chu asked me to kill Fan Ziruo, so naturally I have to do it.

[Chu Xiaoxiaos favorability level changed from 39 to 40]

Then began to add a billion details to the memories, Its just a pity that she said to me only yesterday that she wanted to see Lotus, but I didnt expect that she wouldnt even live to see this winter. She has treated me quite well these past few days, but its a pity that she should never have upset Lord Chu Chu, unfortunately.

Chu Chu frowned and said, If you could stay away from her, it wouldnt hurt to let her live until next summer.

Really?

I always keep my word.

The big deal is done! Lets stall it for a while and then figure out what to do! If you cant, use the opportunity to change Chu Chus mind, so that Chu Chu Chu wont kill her.

With the guaranteed result in hand, He Yunxiao was ready to take advantage of this rare opportunity to make more money.

Who knew if there would be another heroine that needed to be made unkillable for Chu Chu to appear in the future? When the time came, how could he keep them alive without the chance to do something Chu Chu had personally promised?

He quietly released the internal force in his hands once again.
