Chapter 287: Chapter 278: Killing Three Birds with One Arrow

Yan Yiqiu stared at the receding figure of his adoptive father, his jaws clenched tightly.

At the Peak of Kunlun, Long Chen had been beaten to such a state, hanging by a thread, yet he still hadn’t died?

He fully believed his adoptive father’s words, because his adoptive father’s deductions had never once been wrong.

Now, since his adoptive father had emphasized that Long Chen was still alive, it definitely meant that Long Chen might make a comeback.

"I won’t give you the chance to turn things around, absolutely not."

Yan Yiqiu clenched his fists, his mind already making plans.

...

The next day, early in the morning, after Long Chen got up, he was pulled by Ye Zhiqiu to practice martial arts.

The moves that Ye Zhiqiu taught Long Chen were all simple ones.

Long Chen learned very quickly, almost assimilating everything at first touch.

Ye Zhiqiu then tried to teach Long Chen some more complex boxing and palm techniques.

But to Ye Zhiqiu’s astonishment, she only had to demonstrate them once, and Long Chen could remember them perfectly.

Ye Zhiqiu secretly took a sharp breath, such martial arts talent was simply astounding.

No wonder he, at such a young age, had stood at the very pinnacle of the Martial God Realm.

No, it should be said that he had broken into the Martial Immortal Realm, sweeping across a host of Martial Gods.

Even now, Ye Zhiqiu still felt numb at the scalp when recalling that battle at the Peak of Kunlun.

"Why aren’t you saying anything? Am I practicing it wrong?"

Long Chen looked at Ye Zhiqiu.

Ye Zhiqiu came back to her senses, coughed softly, and said, "It still needs improvement. Starting from today, every day you must do three hundred push-ups, three hundred squats, and three hundred leaps, and then run ten kilometers with weights before going to work. Do you understand?"

"Alright."

Long Chen nodded in agreement.

"Eh, don’t you think that this is something a normal person can’t accomplish?"

Ye Zhiqiu asked.

"I’m not a normal person," Long Chen spoke softly. "I can feel that."

"You’ve left me speechless."

Ye Zhiqiu shrugged her shoulders. "Then start."

"Okay."

Long Chen faithfully followed Ye Zhiqiu’s instructions.

It wasn’t until noon that Long Chen completed the tasks Ye Zhiqiu had assigned.

At this time, Long Chen was genuinely exhausted.

But Ye Zhiqiu didn’t plan to let Long Chen rest, she told him, "I’ll give you a mental method, you practice according to the method, it can further consolidate today’s training and enhance the effect."

"I..."

"Don’t bring up work. The bar doesn’t open until evening, it’s only twelve now, what’s the hurry?"

Ye Zhiqiu cut off Long Chen’s words.

Then, Ye Zhiqiu imparted the mental method to Long Chen.

Long Chen memorized it in one go and immediately began trying to meditate using the method under Ye Zhiqiu’s guidance.

Half an hour later, Long Chen suddenly opened his eyes, his face full of disbelief.

"What’s wrong?"

Ye Zhiqiu, who had been beside him, was startled by Long Chen’s action.

"Wife, something’s not quite right."

Long Chen said.

"What’s wrong, tell me."

Ye Zhiqiu was no longer concerned with whether Long Chen called her wife or not; she just wanted to know what had happened.

Long Chen took a deep breath, then excitedly said, "I feel like some magical power has appeared within my body."

"Hm?"

A jolt went through Ye Zhiqiu’s heart. "What... What kind of power?"

"Wait, let me try to channel it."

Long Chen silently recited the mental method, trying to control the power that had appeared within him.

In a moment, as Long Chen raised his hand, a stream of pure white energy appeared in the palm of his hand.

Ye Zhiqiu’s expression froze as she saw it. "This... This is True Qi appearing?"

"True Qi? Is it Inner Strength?"

"You could say that. Oh my God, what kind of monster are you?" Ye Zhiqiu’s scalp tingled.

In just half a day’s time, someone with not a bit of True Qi had cultivated it; the speed was alarming.

But upon further thought, Ye Zhiqiu realized it might be because Long Chen was someone who used to stand at the top of the Martial Arts pyramid and, although he had amnesia, his subconscious might still be present, which would explain his rapid progress.

However, Long Chen’s Dantian was shattered; could this True Qi stay within his body for long?

She looked at Long Chen with some skepticism, unable to help asking, "Do you feel like this True Qi is going to dissipate?"

"No, I feel it merging into every inch of my flesh, it won’t dissipate," Long Chen replied.

Sss.

Ye Zhiqiu inhaled sharply.

This was unscientific.

Without a Dantian, True Qi could reside in the flesh and use the bones and flesh as a Dantian?

Why?

Ye Zhiqiu felt this was beyond her comprehension.

"Is there a problem?"

Long Chen asked.

"There’s... no problem, you go to work, remember not to slack off tomorrow,"

Ye Zhiqiu said.

"Okay."

Long Chen rose and left without any hesitation.

Ye Zhiqiu then went to find Grandpa Ye and briefly explained Long Chen’s situation.

After listening, Grandpa Ye got excited, slapped his thigh, and stood up, laughing loudly, "There are people with talent, genius, and even devilish talent in this world, but this kid, he doesn’t belong to any of these categories. I think he’s a once-in-a-million freak of nature, haha, Zhiqiu, you’ve really picked up a treasure."

"Let’s not jump to conclusions yet; let’s wait and see,"

Ye Zhiqiu said softly.

"What are you waiting for? Go immediately and purchase some top-grade medicines that can refine and temper the body, regardless of the cost. Get them and then focus on building up Chen Feng’s physique. I have a strong hunch that if this kid is trained well, he might turn into a prodigy like Long Chen,"

Grandfather Ye clenched his fists.

If the Ye Family could have a son-in-law who could rival Long Chen, then the Ye Family would soar instantly.

Just thinking about it got Grandpa Ye overly excited.

Long Chen’s performance at the Peak of Kunlun had stunned the world. Now, there wasn’t a person in the Martial Arts World who didn’t know the name Long Chen.

Ye Zhiqiu looked at her excited grandfather and was left speechless.

You think he can become an extraordinary figure like Long Chen, without realizing that he is Long Chen.

But right now, Ye Zhiqiu dared not reveal this truth.

After all, this was the Imperial City, and the Yan Family was also in the Imperial City.

If Long Chen’s presence in her home was exposed, and Yan Yiqiu came looking for him, the current Ye Family would not withstand the Yan Royal Mansion’s attempt to kill Long Chen.

"Grandfather, I’ll go buy the medicine and then check out Long Chen’s workplace," Ye Zhiqiu said.

"Hold on, what’s this about going to work? Such a waste of good talent,"

Grandpa Ye frowned deeply.

"Grandfather, you personally agreed to let Long Chen gain some experience. Please don’t interfere. If we don’t let him go to work and force him to train in martial arts, what if he finds it dull and boring and runs away? I think, we should let him go to work to maintain a balance,"

Ye Zhiqiu said softly.

"That makes sense, but Zhiqiu, there’s one more thing I’ve been considering and thought I should discuss with you,"

Grandpa Ye looked at Ye Zhiqiu, torn and hesitant about speaking his mind.

"Grandfather, just say it."

"Then I’ll speak my mind," the old man lowered his voice, "Your parents don’t really like Chen Feng, and it seems they’ve been looking for you to marry into some high-ranking families in the Imperial City. But I don’t approve of any of those young masters. Here’s what I’m thinking: We turn the raw rice into cooked rice. If you have Chen Feng’s child, no matter how much they oppose, it won’t be any use. Heh, Zhiqiu, what do you think?"

Ye Zhiqiu was stunned, staring at her grandfather in disbelief.

Grandpa Ye glared at her, "Don’t look at me like that. Grandfather is also thinking of your best interest. This way, not only can you deal with your parents, but you’ll also have the fruit of love with the man you love, and at the same time, Chen Feng won’t be able to leave. Killing three birds with one stone, isn’t it great?"

"Grandfather, I... I have things to take care of,"

Ye Zhiqiu hurriedly left, her heart pounding.

Could she really have children with Long Chen?

Just the thought felt surreal to her.

What would she do when Long Chen regained his memory in the future?

Moreover, Ye Zhiqiu felt that if she really did that, it would be taking advantage of him when he’s vulnerable.

She didn’t like that feeling.

Yet, the idea of having children with Long Chen still tempted Ye Zhiqiu a little.

...

At this moment, Long Chen had arrived at the bar.

As he stepped into the bar, people like the Mohawk and others were extremely attentive, offering tea and water, massaging his shoulders, showing great respect to Long Chen.

After all, Long Chen’s performance yesterday had completely conquered them.

Even Lin Doudou gathered around Long Chen, affectionately calling him "Brother Chen."

"Cough, don’t be like this, it makes me feel embarrassed,"

Long Chen chuckled.

"Brother Chen, aside from my sister, you’re the boss here, hee hee, I’ll listen to whatever you say,"

Lin Doudou said sweetly.

"Doudou, what if Brother Chen says he wants to relax at noon, erm, the kind of indescribable relaxation, would you still obediently listen to him?"

The Mohawk daringly asked Lin Doudou.

"You’ve just lost this month’s bonus," Lin Doudou replied eerily, "Brother Chen is not as filthy as you, jerk."

"Sister Doudou, I was wrong, please don’t deduct my bonus,"

The Mohawk pleaded with a gloomy face.

"Crying won’t help; it’s decided, you jerk,"

Lin Doudou was very angry, and the consequences were severe.

"Sister Doudou, let it pass, he was just making a little joke,"

Long Chen said with a smile.

"Mm, okay, I won’t deduct his bonus then,"

Lin Doudou turned to Long Chen with a very bright, sweet smile.

Long Chen looked at Lin Doudou and was momentarily spellbound.

Because for a fleeting moment, an extremely similar face to Lin Doudou’s appeared in his mind.

But when Long Chen tried to recall it specifically, he couldn’t remember anything.

This feeling was incredibly painful for Long Chen, giving him a splitting headache.

"Brother Chen, what’s wrong?"

Lin Doudou asked anxiously.
