Chapter 313 - Bending a Brick as Easily as Bread (1/2)

Chapter 313 Bending a Brick as Easily as BreadFang Qiu’s father jogged the whole way and took out the broom.

He passed it to Fang Qiu’s mom and whispered, “You should be careful. You can’t defeat him!”

Fang Qiu’s mother was immediately annoyed with his words.

She raised her voice and glared at Fang Qiu with the broom raised high as she said, “I refuse to believe that this naughty kid would dare to lay a hand on me.”

“No, of course not,” Fang Qiu quickly shook his head and his hands. Then, he raised his hands as a gesture of surrender and said miserably, “Alright, alright, I’ll tell what’s going on.”

“Humph,” Fang Qiu’s mother scoffed proudly and said, “spill, what is going on?”

“This is what happened,” Fang Qiu said, “I, your son, had a chance encounter with an elderly man while I was out playing as a kid. This elderly man said that I would be a martial arts genius, so he promised that he would teach me kung fu every day. This is why you weren’t able to find me when I went out to play every day as a child. However, the elderly man swore me to secrecy, so you weren’t aware of this pact.”

“Does this mean that you haven’t just been learning medical skills over the past six months?” Fang Qiu’s mother asked.

“Yes!” Fang Qiu nodded repeatedly and said, “Haven’t I learned…”

“You’ve learned how to tell lies, haven’t you?” His mother raised the broom high and looked as though she was about to hit him.

“No, no,” Fang Qiu hurriedly took a few steps backward and said. “This is the truth. I didn’t make it up, I swear.”

“Kid, stop making things up,” Fang Qiu’s father couldn’t stand it any longer and said. “You should come up with something more believable even if you want to lie. Your words sound like something right out of a martial arts novel. It is no wonder that we managed to see through your lies. I can tell that you’re lying, so do you really think that your mother won’t be able to tell the same?”

Fang Qiu smiled wryly and said, “I’m neither lying nor making things up. I was telling the truth.”

His parents exchanged a glance and they both looked exasperated.

“Alright, let’s say that you’re telling the truth, why don’t you tell us how strong you are right now?” Fang Qiu’s mother asked.

“How strong?” Fang Qiu thought for a moment before he casually said, “100 people won’t be able to come near me.”

The moment he uttered those words, his parents were astonished.

“What did you just say?” Fang Qiu’s father asked, his eyes widening in shock.

“Did you just say that 100 people wouldn’t be able to come near you? Do you think that these people are all weaklings?” Fang Qiu’s mother said as she glared at Fang Qiu. “Did you learn how to brag from that elderly man as well? How could that elderly man teach a young child such things?”

“Why don’t you believe me?” Fang Qiu said as he looked innocently at his parents. “I swear I’m telling the truth. I did not make a single word of this up.”

“Alright, why don’t you show me your abilities?” Fang Qiu’s mother asked.

“Sure, get me 100 people,” Fang Qiu said as he splayed his hands helplessly.

His mother’s broom came sweeping down toward his buttocks.

“Smack.”

She didn’t use excessive force but neither was it a light smack. She said, “Who told you to beat others up? Don’t you have any talents other than beating people up? Why can’t you show these off?”

Fang Qiu rubbed at his buttocks and chuckled.

He knew his mother couldn’t bear to hit him.

Moreover, Fang Qiu was so strong that his internal Qi could have easily broken the broom.

“Fine, let me show you,” Fang Qiu said.

Then, he walked outside, picked up a brick, and went back into the living room.

“Are you going to slice the brick apart with your bare hands?” His mother asked mockingly.

“There’s no need to slice it apart with my hands,” he said.

Then, he held the brick in his left hand and tore it into pieces as easily as bread with his left hand.

He made it seem like an effortless feat.

“Crack crack…”

He chuckled as he tore the brick apart and asked, “Do you believe me now?”

His parents were dumbfounded.

They stared at him in shock and stood rooted to the spot.

Soon, his father walked up to him in disbelief, picked up the shards of bricks that Fang Qiu threw onto the floor, and took the remaining half of the brick from Fang Qiu’s hand. He examined it and saw that it was a real brick!

Fang Qiu’s mother walked over to take a closer look as well.

Then, they tried to tear apart the brick as Fang Qiu did earlier.

No matter how hard they tried, they couldn’t tear the brick apart. Instead, this only made their hands hurt.

“Uh…”

Fang Qiu’s father stuttered.

Fang Qiu’s mother passed the brick that was the size of two fingers back to Fang Qiu and said, “Do what you just did again.”

Fang Qiu took the brick from his mother and placed the brick in his palm before he gently squeezed it.

“Rustle…”

The brick was turned into powder after he squeezed it and turned into red sand that scattered onto the floor.

“Is this enough?” Fang Qiu asked with his hands splayed open.

“Am, amazing!” Fang Qiu’s father exclaimed.
