Chapter 67 (2/2)
Ling Chen then lifted up her head stubbornly. With resolution in her eyes, she said, ”Since Ling Jian is able to endure, Chen’er will also be able to do so. Chen’er isn’t afraid of bitterness. As long as Chen’er can help young n.o.ble, Chen’er will be willing to do anything.”
Ling Tian laughed and pinched her cheek, ”Good, good, good. Then I will make an exception for Chen’er. Hmm, let me think. What kind of martial arts should I teach Chen’er?”
With elation, Chen’er said, ”Young n.o.ble must teach Chen’er the most powerful martial arts. Chen’er wants to beat Ling Jian!”
Ling Tian lost himself in laughter for a moment before saying, ”Good, I will make you stronger than Ling Jian. But, Chen’er, the moment you start, there will be no turning back. I do not like people to give up halfway.”
Ling Chen then said resolutely, ”Rest a.s.sured, young n.o.ble. Chen’er will be even more hardworking than Ling Jian.”
Ling Tian laughed for a moment as he quickly thought about what he should teach Ling Chen. My own Divine Shocking Dragon Formula isn’t suitable for girls, that definitely isn’t viable. As for the Golden Iron Jacket, that’s even more impossible. Which martial arts is suitable for a lady? Then… the only one which is suitable for a lady would be the Divine Ice Formula which Ling Xue’er cultivates. Thinking about Ling Xue’er, Ling Tian became lost in a daze for a moment as he felt a wave of heartache.
Only after a while did he say, ”Chen’er, come over. Let me feel your bones.”
Ling Chen responded with a ‘Mmm’ before moving in front of Ling Tian.
What is meant by ‘bone feeling’ is an important procedure of the ancient sects before accepting a new disciple. It was to test the talent of a person to see if one was suitable for the sect’s martial arts.
As an example, some would be born with a lack of coordination in their bodies. The actions which others could easily accomplished would be extremely difficult for them to achieve in perfection. This is not something which could be made up for by hard work. This was a problem with one’s innate talent.
Just like how in the present day sports scene in China, gymnastics would be a sport which would require a person to be extremely flexible and nimble. Most of the athletes which are able to get the gold medal would be those who come from the south. As for those from the north, it was rare to see any of them who will be able to compete at the international level. This does not mean that those from the north aren’t hard working or lesser than those from the south. This was something which has got to do with talent and is largely affected by the environment which one grows up on. The south was extremely humid while the north was much more dry. Those from the north and south would be easily distinguished just based on looks alone. The adaptability of those from the south was much stronger than those from the north with their skins being much softer. Those from the north would be much fitter and well built than those from the south. Geography, weather, diet and many other things are contributing factors to these. Thus, for the sports with a great demand towards physical strength, those from the north would excel much better in. Haha, the topic strayed too far away, back to the point.
Ling Tian shut his eyes as his hands roamed around Ling Chen’s body. In his palms, his Inner Qi would observe every part of Ling Chen’s bones as his hands move past that portion.
As he slowly observed her body, Ling Tian was surprised that this young lady’s talent was much higher than what he expected. In fact, it was no less than Ling Jian’s. If Ling Tian were to guide her carefully, she will definitely be a frightening existence in the future.
As he thought about these things, Ling Tian could not help but enter into a daze, not hearing the footsteps by the entrance of his yard.
”AHHH~” A sharp scream could be heard from the entrance! The scream was filled with disbelief and shock!
Ling Tian was startled! As he turned to take a look, he saw a few people by the entrance to his yard.
Ling Xiao, Chu Ting’er, Ling Kong and son, with Ling Ran by the side as well. Ling Ran had her hands over her mouth as she stared at Ling Tian with an incredulous expression. All of the others had their mouths opened up wide as they stared at Ling Tian and Ling Chen.
At this moment, Ling Tian and Ling Chen’s actions just looks too loving from the view of an outsider. Ling Tian was holding Ling Chen tightly in his embrace as his hands were exploring Ling Chen’s body. His eyes were shut as though he was enjoying himself. As for Ling Chen, her face was red with her body leaning in Ling Tian’s embrace...
