Chapter 208 - 0208: Flying Leaf as Sword

Chapter 208: Chapter 0208: Flying Leaf as Sword

In broad daylight, the two shamelessly tumbled in the sheets for an entire afternoon.

Wang Xiaoya, fearing that Zhang Li might see them after getting off work, woke up from a nap, hurriedly pulled Long Fei up, and they both got dressed and left the house together.

Quitting a job is easy, but finding one is hard.

Without a job all of a sudden, Wang Xiaoya felt a hollow emptiness inside.

She still had to send two thousand to her family every month and pay a thousand for rent, hardly saving any money.

She could hold out for at most a month; if she couldn’t find a job by then, she’d have to go hungry.

Long Fei saw what was on her mind, hailed a cab, and took her to a park for a leisurely stroll.

A river flowed through the park, flanked by willow trees, and gathered into a lake in the middle of the park.

It was dusk at that time.

There were quite a few people exercising there, with men and women constantly running past.

There were also many elderly men and women doing square dancing, making for a lively scene.

"Thinking about the job thing?"

Long Fei broke the silence.

"Yeah!"

Wang Xiaoya nodded and tossed a pebble into the river.

Having stayed at Lin’s Group for so long, she was at a loss what to do once she suddenly hit the real world.

It was indeed tough to find a job that paid well and was as relaxed as her last one.

Long Fei comforted her, "Since you’ve already quit, just take it easy. If worse comes to worst, I’ll support you!"

His eyes were fixed on Wang Xiaoya.

Wang Xiaoya shrugged her nose and said, "I’m not a pig, why would I need you to provide for me?"

"True!"

Long Fei laughed heartily, gave her buttocks a squeeze, and joked, "You’re a lot skinnier than a pig anyway!"

"Stop it!"

Wang Xiaoya quickly slapped his hand away, with so many people watching on the road, she could die of embarrassment.

The two of them walked to the lakeside where a young woman was sitting cross-legged under a willow tree, meditating.

She wore a set of white tracksuits, had a well-toned figure, and sported a Mushroom Head haircut, her features looking pure and transcendent.

An old man stood behind her.

With white hair and a robust spirit, he stood with hands clasped behind his back, occasionally directing the young woman.

Wang Xiaoya whispered to Long Fei, "Look at this family, so impressive! They even have bodyguards when they come out for exercise?"

Long Fei looked over where a black nanny car stood at a distance on the road.

In front of the nanny car were four burly men in black.

These men were obviously trained fighters.

The calluses on their knuckles said it all.

The young girl was clearly practicing breathing exercises, just like the ancient martial Qi Refining Technique Old Master Zhou had taught Long Fei.

Long Fei closed his eyes to feel the area and sensed a great fluctuation of Spiritual Energy under the willow tree, a rare spot for Qi Refinement.

You should know, the dispersion of Spiritual Energy in the world is not even.

It’s like natural gas.

Some places have more, some less, and you need specialized tools to sense it.

He shook his head as he looked at the young girl, thinking that this kind of ancient martial Qi Refining Technique only captured the form but not the essence.

Even though she occupied a good Qi Refinement spot, it was still hard for her to achieve great results.

At that moment, the old man noticed him and slightly furrowed his brow.

The girl also sensed something, opened her eyes, and stared at Long Fei.

Seeing Long Fei shaking his head and sighing as if looking down on her, she felt frustrated and stood up, calling out to him, "Hey, what are you shaking your head for?"

Long Fei frowned and looked around before saying, "You talking to me?"

The girl placed her hands on her hips and said coyly, "Of course, I mean you. Who else could it be here?"

Wang Xiaoya was somewhat puzzled and said, "What’s with you being so domineering? It’s none of your business if my boyfriend shakes his head."

The girl said angrily, "What do you know? He’s clearly looking down on me."

Long Fei stepped in front of Wang Xiaoya, embarrassed, "I wasn’t looking down on you, I just noticed your Qi Refining Technique was off the mark, similar to my past experience, so I couldn’t help but comment."

"How dare you say I haven’t grasped it?"

The girl’s face changed with anger.

The old man behind her frowned slightly and ordered the girl, "Forget it, let’s go!"

The girl shouted, "Grandpa, what is he to criticize our Shen Family’s Qi Refining Technique."

She was defiant and challenged Long Fei, "You seem to have some insight, so you must practice martial arts too. Do you dare to compare your strength with me?"

Long Fei gave a wry smile, not expecting to have run into a troublesome woman.

He shook his head, "I don’t fight women!"

"Fine, that’s a good excuse!"

The girl grew even angrier, looked around, stepped forward with her left foot, and punched a nearby large willow tree.

With a bang, the willow tree, as thick as a water jar, shook, leaving a one-inch deep fist imprint.

Wang Xiaoya, watching from behind, jumped in shock, not expecting the girl’s fist to be so hard.

If she had been the one to punch, she might have broken her hand.

The girl, disdainfully looking at Long Fei, said, "See that? If you can leave a deeper imprint today, I will let you go. If you can’t, then get on your knees and apologize to me immediately!"

Long Fei shook his head with a smile, thinking the girl was a bit too overbearing.

He glanced around, reached out, and plucked a willow leaf from the tree.

Having now broken through to the mid-phase Qi Cultivation Realm, he was on par with ancient martial arts grandmasters.

He channeled a stream of Essential Qi through his hands and flung the willow leaf he held.

There was a cracking sound as the old bark of the willow tree reacted.

It was as if hit by a bullet, a trail of debris was ejected.

The willow leaf had pierced through like a blade.

The girl was startled into stillness; behind her, the elderly man wrinkled his brow and murmured in a low voice, "Grandmaster Realm?"

He stared at Long Fei incredulously, witnessing a young man barely in his twenties reach such a level of skill?

Everyone knew that for a martial artist, it took at least five or six decades of training to reach such a level of command over Essential Qi.

Wang Xiaoya had barely seen what happened, only noticing Long Fei tossing a leaf, and the other two were just frozen in place.

She tugged at Long Fei’s clothes, signaling him not to cause any more trouble.

Long Fei, with a smile, asked, "May we leave now?"

The girl nodded dumbly, intimidated by his presence, and dared not utter a word of refusal.

After Long Fei and Wang Xiaoya left, she hurriedly fiddled with where the willow leaf had penetrated.

The wound on the willow was clean, and the leaf did indeed penetrate.

She extracted the willow leaf, crumpled it in her hand, and it easily broke apart, nothing like its previous hardness when it had pierced the tree.

Surprised, the girl asked her grandfather "Is he really at the Grandmaster Realm?"

Old Master Zhou nodded, "Flying Leaf as Sword, harming with a plucked flower. Not even I could do this from this distance!"

He, too, was a grandmaster with the ability to turn flying leaves into swords.

But to pierce the tree trunk from three meters away, he was sure he could not do it.

He cautioned his granddaughter, "Yan’er, you must work on that temper of yours. The world is vast with countless masters emerging. Even with our family’s power, we are just like porcelain in their eyes. If you always act so recklessly, you will suffer in the martial world."

"Understood, Grandpa!"

The girl stuck out her tongue, not expecting a random man on the street to be at the Grandmaster Realm.

Binhai City truly was full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers.

She helped her grandfather into the car, then asked, "Grandpa, do you think we can really find someone here to cure your illness?"

The old man sighed, "Grandpa has lived to this age, I’ve seen through life’s destiny. Let’s leave it to fate."

The girl nodded, Long Fei’s image lingering in her mind. She had really wanted to ask him for advice.

Too bad she had talked big at the beginning, him sparing her life was already generous.

She knew all too well how the Ancient Martial World worked.

Someone at the Grandmaster Realm could kill over a single disagreement.
