Chapter 167: A child’s skills
Empress Running Away with the Ball
âItâs too late to feel fear now! In this world, there is no good ending for anyone that offends my third brother! My third brother is a person that holds grudges and you better pray to god that he never finds you in this lifetime.â
Chu Shao Bai rolled his eyes, but he did not fail to notice her slight trembling.
His words were very cold, but he took a large black cloak and draped it over her shoulders.
Chen Ningâs heart felt warm.
âXiao Bai, you will help me, right?â She suddenly turned her head and revealed a gentle smile to him.
His heart began beating fast and his breathing seemed like it had stopped. He just gave a grunt.
âYou want me to help you go against my third brother? I wonât do that.â He had no emotions on his face as he rejected her.
Did this girl think that he would help her just because she smiled at him?
He could help her play around with his third brother and embarrass his third brother, but if anyone wanted to harm his third brotherâs life, he, Chu Shao Yang would never agree.
Even if it was her!
Chen Ning was not angry. She revealed a faint smile and said, âXiao Bai, your qinggong is quite good. Are you willing to teach me qinggong?â
âLearn qinggong?â Chu Shao Bai was stunned. He turned to look at her, âThe help youâre asking for is for me to teach you qinggong?â
âThatâs right.â Chen Ning raised her brows and then sat back on the grass. She pulled out a stalk of grass to chew and then she spat it out.
Her movements were very natural and did not seem fake at all. She was completely different from the other large family daughters he had met before.
âWhy do you want to learn qinggong?â He sat down right beside her, touching his shoulder to hers.
âOf course it is to run away.â Chen Ning giggled and then stuck her tongue out, âI have offended your third brother today, so next time he sees me, he will definitely wish to kill me. If I had qinggong at the same level as you, even if I canât beat him, I can still run away!â
Chu Shao Bai found this frustrating and funny.
Does she think that qinggong is that easy to learn?
If she wanted to run away from his third brother, she wouldnât be able to accomplish this even after practicing for ten years.
But, if she did learn qinggong, if she was ever in danger, she would have another way to keep her life.
âAlright, Iâll teach you.â He nodded without any hesitation.
Chen Ning was a little excited, âIs qinggong hard to learn?â
âOf course it is not hard.â Chu Shao Bai responded without even thinking about it. For him, it was something very easy, âBut, do you have internal energy?â
He did not even have to ask to know. She did not have any internal energy at all.
She knew a few basic martial arts, but that kind of martial arts to him and his third brother was just like childâs play. It was not the same.
âNot a little bit.â Chen Ning honestly shook her head.
âIf you do not have any internal energy, it is hard to reach the peak while learning qinggong.â Chu Shao Bai felt a little awkward as he thought for a bit before saying, âHow about I teach you an internal energy technique first?ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Chen Ningâs eyes lit up. Of course she wanted to learn internal energy, she knew from the books that she read that internal energy was gradually built up and not gained overnight.
âI donât need to reach the peak, I just need be able to run faster.â
âIf itâs like this, then itâs much easier. Iâll teach you the qinggong entry heart sutra now.â Chu Shao Bai thought for a bit, âYou have to remember it well, Iâll only say it once. If youâre too dumb to remember it, I wonât say it again.â He deliberately said.
Chen Ning revealed a gentle smile and just nodded.
âAlright, then listen well. Thereâs a total of eight formulas.â Chu Shao Bai began chanting, âThe body is light when oneâs qi is light, the body is heavy when oneâs qi is heavy. First fill the heavens and then make the qi light. Make the body as light as a swallow and let the body float like weeds. Success will grant the ability to fly, everyone will have a different nature.â
His words were clearly articulated his words, but he said it very quickly. After he finished, he eagerly looked at Chen Ning with eyes filled with a teasing gaze.
âIf you canât remember it, then just call me good big brother. Every time you say it, will repeat it once for you.â
