”Big brother Second Elder Brother, let me introduce you. This is Yuwen Xi, little sister Xi Er, this is big brother, this is Second Elder Brother, am I not as handsome as you are?” Shangguan He smiled proudly.
Yuwen Xi felt quite awkward, how was she supposed to answer this question? Alright, she was a mute, so she didn't need to answer this question.
”Don't mess around. Hurry, sit down and eat.” The Madame Wang glared at Shangguan He, then called out for everyone to eat.
On the table, Yuwen Xi could feel Shangguan Lian and Shangguan Xin looking at each other, as well as the Madame Wang. Shangguan Xin on the other hand, was slightly better, probably knowing what was going on between her and Wen Feng, so she wasn't worried about her and Shangguan He anymore.
At first, no one said anything, but then Madame Wang opened her mouth and said, ”Why do girls like to dance about with swords and spears? It's so dangerous.
Yuwen Xi laughed, ”Everyone has their own lives, some women are suitable for the red lady, and some women are suitable for using their blades and spears.”
Madame Wang did not know how to reply. She did not have anything to refute when she heard this, and it was true. People have their own lives, not everyone was suitable to be a lady.
”Is Miss Yuwen talking about her fate?” Shangguan Lian's tone wasn't good, she felt that Yuwen Xi's words were hinting at something like that.
”Isn't dancing the sword and making the spear the result of bad luck? Wasn't there a man who wouldn't give in to a man? Women can also be hot-blooded, can't they? ” Yuwen Xi's attitude was still very good.
Shangguan Lian was also blocked. She clearly had an objection, but she didn't know what to say.
Yuwen Xi praised herself in her heart after seeing another one get killed by Yuwen Xi. If she had spoken, it would be even better.
”Miss Yuwen, you're quite ambitious. If everyone had such ambition, then our Dongming would probably be even more prosperous.” Shangguan Xin looked at Yuwen Xi with praise in his eyes, thinking that it was extremely rare for a girl to have such spirit, how many girls would be willing to go on the battlefield? He thought that Yuwen Xi was a timid woman who stayed inside her room. He did not think that she would have such thoughts.
”You flatter me. Actually, I'm not that great either. I only know how to learn as much as I can, in case of emergencies. After all, it's everyone's responsibility to protect our home.”
After the meal, the Shangguan family had a certain understanding of Yuwen Xi, and changed a lot. This made Shangguan He very happy, even more so than Yuwen Xi herself.
”Little Sister Xi Er, you're too awesome. When I saw my big brother speechless due to you, I almost laughed out loud. Don't you know that my big brother used to scold me?
”Alright, if you keep talking like this, and they hear, I'll be out of luck.”
”Alright, alright, I won't say anymore. In the afternoon, we will practice the Qing Gong, but it's actually not that hard to practice it. But you have to persevere, now that you have inner force, then the next step is to train your legs, and run with weight, do you understand?”
Yuwen Xi nodded. Running while carrying a weight could make one feel light and use it to control their body. Qing Gong only relied on the strength of their legs and the control of his own body.
”The first day, I will run with you. I will take you to familiarize yourself with the road. From now on, you will have to run by yourself.”
”Alright, that's alright.” Yuwen Xi shook her head carelessly. It would be more convenient and more comfortable to run around by herself.
Shangguan He had tied a sandbag around Yuwen Xi's ankle, even Yuwen Xi found it difficult to walk on it. This was only a light sandbag, she didn't know if she would be able to use it once the heavy sandbag was tied up.
After running for a short distance, Yuwen Xi started to feel tired, but she could still persevere, so she continued to run, and after that, it was difficult for her to even breathe, why was she so tired, she felt that she couldn't even run anymore, and Shangguan She ran very slowly with her speed, and when he saw her like this, she encouraged her, ”Adjust adjust your own breathing, if you can't take it, then slow down a bit.
Being distracted by Shangguan He's words, Yuwen Xi felt that she was not as tired anymore. Gritting her teeth and persevering, she looked at the road ahead, she really felt dizzy, and her vision turned really dark. Actually the smooth road was still okay.
, you can do it, you can use your powerful soul to control Yuwen Xi's body, you can do it, you can do it, you can do it!
After continuously consoling herself and encouraging herself, suddenly, in a moment, Yuwen Xi felt a change. She didn't know if it was the kind of change Shangguan He mentioned, but it was really strange, a feeling of breaking through one's limits. She was obviously too tired to move anymore, but after holding on for a bit, she felt that she had strength again, and could continue running.
Seeing Yuwen Xi's change, Shangguan She guided him past that extreme point.
”In a while, if you feel tired, you can't run anymore and you can't stop.” Shangguan He warned Yuwen Xi.
She looked up at him with a puzzled expression. Her throat felt very uncomfortable and she felt a little bloodshot. Even if she was allowed to speak now, she wouldn't be able to speak, let alone make a move.
