C122 Euphorbia (1/2)

How could Li Zecheng not know about the plans of the kangbai calves? The living room wasn't small anymore. Moving things a bit was enough; he purposely told me to go out and beat Master Chen for the sake of making me lose face in front of everyone. Since Li Zecheng said so, Master Chen didn't think too much and agreed. I had no choice but to bite the bullet and follow her out.

Not long after we left the villa, the news that Master Chen and I wanted to poke around spread like wildfire. Everyone in the courtyard curiously surrounded us, with the exception of the two who were in the middle and gave us a huge circular space, the rest of the people in the vicinity were unable to escape.

Everyone was looking at me, who was standing on the stairs, with playful eyes. I clearly only wanted to accompany Master Chen to fight a few times, and was nothing more than a meat stake for him, but now it seemed like I wanted to challenge the Master Chen, and that was probably why Li Zecheng was instigating this matter.

Master Chen was the first to descend the steps and stand at the top of the empty ground. Just as I was about to descend, Li Xinai reached out his hand and grabbed my arm.

”Don't try to be brave. Keep it to the point. No matter what, I don't want you to get hurt. The wounds on your body are not completely healed yet.” Li Xinai said worriedly.

”Hmph.” Li Zecheng, who was standing behind me, coldly snorted with a sour smell and said: ”Since this is already gone, if you're afraid, then forget about it. No one is forcing you to say that. Are you afraid that Master Chen will accidentally beat you to death? ”

”Hahaha.” Li Zecheng's words caused a round of laughter among the crowd; these people laughed brazenly, as if they all wanted to see me embarrassed. I swept a glance down the stairs and found that all of them were looking at me with playful expressions, as if they were guessing how many moves I would be able to endure under the Master Chen's hand, one or two of them.

I expressionlessly walked down the stairs and stood in front of Master Chen. I politely cupped my hands and replied, ”Master Chen.”

Although Master Chen is the leader of the martial arts in north Beijing, he didn't show any arrogance or disdain when facing me, a nameless junior. He still maintained his personality that a martial artist should have, smiled at me, then used a clean and decisive mane of a wild horse to begin the classic Taiji Fist stance.

”Come.”

When the master made his move, his imposing manner, as well as the thick basics of the technique, was evident. If one were to see the thin and shaky horse stance and the calm and quiet Master Chen moving along with a dark tide, the Tai Chi set of clothes would sway slightly, giving people the feeling that it was about to float with the wind.

”A master is indeed a master. He is already so eye-catching with just his stance. It is unexpected that I would be able to see a master today. This trip was not in vain!”

”Yeah, I don't know who this expert is, but if I were to spar with a Master, wouldn't that be like a punching bag? He's just taking a beating!” Who is so foolish as to stand out in front of a master like you and fight with him? ”

”It looks like Jiang Xiaofo, it seems like this year's IT industry's Head Awards winner. Heh, wasn't it him who went in together with Li Xinai just now? This is going to be a good show. ”

Nine out of ten of them wanted to watch a good show with me. I let out a long breath, ignoring all the noise that sounded in my ears, clenched my fists and rushed towards Master Chen! Master Chen!

When I met with him, I relied on a wave of strength to swing a fist towards Master Chen's chest. Master Chen's face revealed a trace of surprise, facing my fist, he remained as steady as Mt. Tai, but his body shifted slightly to the left to dodge the trajectory of the fist. At almost the same time, he raised his right hand to pat my outstretched arm, grabbing onto my arm like a dragon swimming in the water, and pulled my fist with force to seven inches where I was waving my fist, pulling me towards him.

Before I could react, his right shoulder shook and all of the strength in my fist bounced back. The punch that I swung seemed to have hit my own body, as I wasn't able to stand steadily and retreated a few steps back. When I stopped to look up, Master Chen's right hand dropped down, and he looked at me with a smile on his face, as if he wasn't affected in the slightest.

Tai Chi was indeed worthy of its reputation as being able to use softness to control strength. This strength was as though it could see objects in Master Chen's hands, unloading it or fitting it back into its body, allowing it to move around effortlessly. They are both boxing, but why is it that the boxing that has evolved from the Heaven's Day Heart Mantra is actually so different from the boxing that I use?

That's not right, I thought back to the boxing's secret technique in my mind. Fists like snakes and dragons twisting their bodies, the power has to be smooth, isn't the so-called Snake Dragon and Smoothing Dragon supposed to be gentle? Tai Chi should be replacing ”softness” with ”toughness” in the boxing in order to make it more flexible! Since that's the case, then I will remove all of Heaven's Day Heart Mantra's ruthlessness and use the ultimate ”soft” fist to deal with him. I don't have any strength in the boxing, how can he borrow strength to fight?

Haha, it's good to know the source of all the boxing s. It's like knowing the source code of a virus program, I can find a solution just by looking at it.

With a plan in my mind, I didn't waste anymore time. I readjusted my body state, waved my fists, and charged towards Master Chen! His moves had not changed, but the meaning of the Heart Formula had changed. He still punched towards the side of Master Chen's face.

”Why is it still the same move?” Is that all he knows? ” Li Zecheng said in a loud and clear voice, and that single sentence caused many people to laugh quietly to themselves.
