Chapter 113: The Return of the Old Matter
Huairou Wuguan is just a slightly larger siheyuan, seemingly no different from an ordinary household. If it weren't for the several large red characters on the door plaque, it would be hard to imagine that this was actually a martial arts hall.
"Hmm..."
"Hmm..."
Several loud shouts of martial arts training echoed out, neat and powerful, like a roar, like a furious howl, after the breath was released, the surrounding echoes could still be heard.
Yi Tian heard the noise and furrowed his brow, guessing that there were at least a dozen people inside.
He glanced at Leng Feifei and didn't say much, he had already reminded her of what needed to be said before. Now... Heh heh, just wait and watch the good show.
Between helping and not helping, he had already made up his mind. He really wanted to let Leng Feifei suffer a setback, so that this guy who didn't know what fear was would remember the lesson!
Lu Tingting furrowed her brow with some concern, looking left and right before glancing at Cold Feifei knocking on the door. She whispered to Yi Tian, "You must help Feifei later, try not to fight with others, if things don't go well, can't we just break it up?"
Upon hearing this, Yi Tian shook his head and smiled. Whether to intervene or not was one thing, but if a real fight were to break out, it wouldn't be that easy to stop. Although he thought so in his heart, he couldn't say it out loud. "Don't worry, I've got everything under control. Before she gets beaten beyond recognition, I'll help her."
Although they were speaking in a low voice, Leng Feifei heard it clearly and glared at Yi Tian with annoyance. Just as she was about to say something, the door opened.
What emerged was a burly man with a robust build, bare-chested, shaved head, and tattoos on his arms. His muscles looked particularly solid, with his chest muscles bulging out.
This man had an aura of unspoken authority, and with a slight frown, he narrowed his eyes and said, "Which one of you is Leng Feifei? Is it you?" He looked at Lu Tingting.
When the challenge notice was posted, it was done by Leng Feifei who hired someone to do it. Therefore, the people in the martial arts hall still didn't know who the real mastermind was, but from the name alone, they knew it was a woman, so he subconsciously looked towards Lu Tingting.
Leng Feifei replied with a straight face and her hands behind her back: "I'm the one who issued the challenge letter, I am Leng Feifei, and you are the master of this martial arts hall?"
Zhuang Han was taken aback, looking at her in surprise, and only then did he notice that she was a woman, and a somewhat strange-looking one at that. He smiled immediately and said, "I'm not, the master is waiting inside, follow me."
The three followed the strong man to the courtyard, where they saw a wide range of martial arts equipment laid out in the spacious courtyard. All sorts of cold weapons were on display, and there were also two human-shaped wooden stakes that seemed to have been around for some years.
In the courtyard, the sky was not yet dark, with several large lanterns lit up, looking very bright. There were over a dozen men of varying builds, all bare-chested, possibly due to having just practiced martial arts, their bodies glistening with oil. Their ages ranged from twenty to forty years old.
Just then, a small, shriveled old man with a mostly white crew cut and a smile on his face walked out of the main house, looking to be around sixty years old.
He walked with a subtle, almost imperceptible toe touch, his thin face had deep-set eyes, a shiny forehead, bright eyes, and slightly raised temples, clearly a practitioner of internal martial arts.
The old man made his way through the crowd and came closer, the burly man whispered a few words in the old man's ear, then the old man said with courtesy: "Hehe, my small martial arts school can welcome all of you, it's truly an honor. Speaking of which, this is just a martial arts school, actually it's just me teaching people some physical exercises when I'm free. Due to the remote location and my limited abilities, there are rarely any visitors coming to challenge me. Since you're here, come in and have a cup of tea first."
Lu Tingting, who was originally very nervous, saw the old man's kind and gentle expression, as well as his soft tone, and suddenly became stunned. This was completely different from the fight she had imagined.
"No need, I came just to try it out, let's skip the tea." said Ling Feifei bluntly.
Yi Tian heard this and shook his head, thinking to himself that it seemed like this guy was eager to fight.
The old man laughed and said: "Hehe, okay, I'll find someone to compare with you. Hongming, remember, just a little bit is enough!"
As he spoke, the people around made way, a burly man named Hong Ming stepped forward two steps, and stood facing Leng Feifei at a distance of several meters, making a gesture to invite her to make a move.
Seeing this, Leng Feifei's face didn't look good. She had thought that the old man would take action himself, but unexpectedly he arranged for someone else? It seemed like he didn't even put her in his eyes at all.
However, she didn't say much and instead stared at Hongming with a fierce gaze: "If I don't knock you down in five seconds, then I lose!"
Her words caused a stir among the crowd around her.
Yi Tian shook his head and smiled, thinking to himself that this person was indeed someone who would not rest until he had shocked others with his words.
The old man furrowed his brow and looked at Cold Feifei with a very serious expression, as if he wanted to discover something from her.
Just as everyone was discussing and thought she was bragging, Hong Ming hummed a little, somewhat displeased, and retorted: "Hmph, fine, I'd like to see what you're capable of!"
As he spoke, he strode out, stretched out his long fist, and charged towards Leng Feifei.
At the same time, Leng Feifei raised her arms and flew away quickly, much faster than Hongming. With a few kicks of her feet, she rushed towards Hongming!
The two men approached each other, both throwing punches at each other. However, Lung Fei Fei easily dodged the opponent's swinging fist, slightly bowed her head, changed from a fist to a palm, and struck Hong Ming's chest.
Boom!
Wow!
Two muffled sounds suddenly rose, and Cold Feifei stood calmly in the original place. Looking at Hongming again, he had already been beaten out of several meters, and fell to the ground!
The two clashed for only a brief moment, and it was all over in the blink of an eye. Seeing Hong Ming's appearance, someone exclaimed: "What's going on? Brother Hong's strength is so strong, how did he lose so quickly?"
"Yes, that woman just now was too quick with her hands, I didn't even get a good look!"
"No good, it seems like Hong Shixiong is injured..."
As people spoke, they flocked towards Hong Ming. At this time, Hong Ming covered his chest and looked very uncomfortable. Originally wanting to get up, he suddenly felt weak all over and couldn't get up.
Seeing his appearance, many people glared at Leng Feifei angrily. Just as someone was about to say something, the old man frowned and said: "Hong Ming is fine, just now it was already a mercy from his opponent. If what hit him wasn't a palm but a fist, I'm afraid he would have suffered serious internal injuries. You all help him to rest in the room for a while!"
As they spoke, a crowd of people carried Hong Ming into the house.
Yi Tian had never seen Leng Feifei's skills before, and they almost fought several times. However, out of respect for Xiao Tong and the fact that Leng Feifei was a woman, he didn't actually use force.
However, at this moment, he looked at Leng Feifei with a different gaze. Leng Feifei's strength was not something that could be described as ordinary. Yi Tian even had a feeling that if Leng Feifei were to truly go all out and fight against him, the outcome would really be hard to predict.
Yi Tian guessed that Leng Feifei must have started practicing martial arts since childhood, and her physical quality and talent were of the top-notch type, otherwise Xiao Tong wouldn't have doted on her so much.
The old man looked at Cold PhiPhi with an expressionless face, not knowing what he was thinking. "I'm He Guangping, I've been practicing martial arts for over 40 years, and I've never seen a young person like you with such strength. Alright, since martial arts don't distinguish between men and women, old and young, I'll take advantage of my age and experience to exchange blows with you. Bring out your true skills!"
"Alright, from the moment I saw you, I felt that you're quite formidable. My greatest hobby is to exchange blows with experts like yourself. Don't be polite, bring out all your strongest moves!"
Leng Feifei said as she jumped up, leaping into the air, her fists clenched tightly, then fiercely swung out in a punching motion.
He didn't hesitate, narrowing his eyes and quickly retreating backwards with his feet. He didn't plan on having a hard confrontation with Cold FeiFei. Through many years of martial arts experience, he had already strongly sensed the intense crisis.
In a state of astonishment and vigilance, he retreated far away before stopping. He raised his fists, circulated his inner energy, and rushed towards the fallen Cold Feifei at high speed.
In an instant, the two of them were fighting together, constantly punching, kicking, jumping and dodging, back and forth.
Lu Tingting was somewhat worried about Leng Feifei and asked Yi Tian, "Yi Tian, you think Feifei will be okay? Can she win?"
Yi Tian watched the two people fighting, shook his head slightly and said: "It's hard to see who will win, but I think Cold Feifei has a better chance. After all, her physical quality is better than that old man. I didn't expect it at all, Cold Feifei's strength is so strong! I said why she always wants to fight with me, it seems that she wants to improve her strength through fighting!"
As he spoke, he deeply felt a chill run down his spine at her obsession with martial arts and strength, thinking to himself that if she continued to develop like this, it would be trouble later on!
Yi Tian thought he was diligent enough, but didn't expect Leng Feifei to be an even bigger martial arts enthusiast. Watching the two fight, he too secretly felt a sense of shock. Don't look at Xi Guangping's thin and weak appearance, but this old Jianghu's martial arts skills are not ordinary, more than 40 years of martial arts career is not bragging, dragon and tiger steps, offense and defense are both excellent, without any flaws, it's hard for people to find weaknesses.
At this time, he also had the idea of ??exchanging blows with this old man. Encountering a strong opponent is the way to quickly improve oneself!
He nodded slightly and made up his mind. After this matter is over, he will get to know Xi Guangping better. If there's a chance, he'll practice with the old man.
As time slowly passed, neither side gained a clear advantage, although there were minor collisions, they all cleverly dodged with minimal harm.
Leng Feifei's forehead began to sweat, and Xi Guangping's breathing also became uneven, but neither of them showed any intention of giving up, as if they had to determine a winner.
Both sides quickly separated after a powerful collision, and Yitian found that their arms had begun to tremble slightly, apparently shaken. If they continued to fight like this, it would be a mutual defeat!
At this moment, he didn't hesitate and flew out, opening the Two Instruments Fist stance. In the instant when both sides clashed again, he quickly caught the arms of the two men, his feet lifted and turned, pulling away the force in their hands, and also pulled the two men left and right, dragging them to his front and back. With a push of his front hand, he pushed Xi Guangping out as well.
Yi Tian's sudden move left the two unprepared, like a spinning top, quickly bouncing them apart. When they came to their senses, they found Yi Tian standing between the two of them.
Xi Guangping was astonished by Yi Tian's strength, and at the same time, he let out a sigh of relief. If they had continued, his physical strength would have been exhausted, although he could still hold on, but the outcome was already decided.
Leng Feifei looked at Yi Tian with dissatisfaction, but didn't say much. She hadn't expected Xi Guangping to be even more formidable than she had imagined. She felt that if they continued fighting, it would be difficult to determine the winner in a short period of time. This was actually a pretty good outcome.
After taking a glance at the two men's state, Yi Tian smiled and said: "You both have been fighting for half a day, you're not tired, I'm tired just from watching. It's just a friendly spar, no need to determine a winner or loser. What if one of you gets hurt? In the future when we have nothing better to do, let's drink tea together and try again another time. Oh right, next time don't forget to bring me along!
