Reacting quickly, Han Shuangjiang immediately took two steps back.
Her originally focused gaze changed instantly.
It turned into disgust, disdain, contempt...
Don't forget, due to various experiences, Chu Peiwan had a slight "misogyny," while she had a slight "misandry."
"Utterly disgusting!" Han Shuangjiang looked at him with loathing, her mood plummeting to the bottom.
Even though that filthy large hand was blocked by Chu Huaixu, she still nearly got goosebumps.
Liu Chengqi glanced down at his own wrist, and a nameless fire rose in his heart.
Chu Huaixu's words and Han Shuangjiang's gaze deeply stung him.
As if he were a vile and lecherous person.
Liu Chengqi, who prided himself on being a romantic, couldn't bear this.
Chu Huaixu was different; looking at Han Shuangjiang's expression, he inexplicably recalled an ancient anime — "Showing Disgusted Faces and Panties."
"Her disgusted face is really something," he thought.
At this moment, Liu Chengqi glared angrily, forcefully shaking his wrist, trying to break free.
As a result, this junior brother with a smile on his face actually had quite some strength.
"Let go," he said coldly.
"Senior Brother Liu, just a touch will do, after all, there's a difference between men and women." Chu Huaixu didn't let go, still smiling.
Liu Chengqi's face grew more embarrassed: "I teach her martial arts with good intentions, carefully guiding and correcting, don't use such filthy thoughts to judge me!"
"If I don't step in, do you think she can find the power spot of the Eight Desolates Roaming Dragon?"
Hearing this, Chu Huaixu glanced at him sideways, feeling like what stood before him was a gym trainer with roving hands.
Interestingly, such trainers could occasionally get a taste.
Body contact, testing if the other party also had a restless heart.
This Liu Chengqi before him was probably a repeat offender.
And possibly, for certain reasons, had succeeded many times, hence his arrogance and audacity.
What puzzled Chu Huaixu was: "Why do so many people recommend learning martial arts from him, and his reputation is still so high?"
"Everyone I asked on the way were men; I didn't ask any roast chickens." (slang for women used derogatorily)
At this moment, seeing the fox-faced guy still not letting go, Liu Chengqi's face grew even darker.
"Junior Brother Chu, Senior Brother is teaching you martial arts, don't be ungrateful, or don't blame me for being rude!"
Han Shuangjiang watched from the side, a faint sense of foreboding rising in her heart.
Sure enough, she saw Chu Huaixu's right hand grab the other's wrist, as his left hand gently picked at his own ear.
"Senior Brother Liu, your words, why do they sound so uncomfortable to me?"
His right hand suddenly exerted force, tightly gripping Liu Chengqi's wrist, glaring sideways:
"Did I not fucking pay?"
...
...
You fucking course seller, acting all high and mighty with me!
Han Shuangjiang stood to the side, instantly filled with worry.
She worried for Chu Huaixu's safety, afraid he might get hurt.
In the end, he was standing up for her.
But for some reason, she suddenly recalled all the scenes on their way here.
Remembered the calm look he had when he uttered... "I've killed before!"
Back at the Hongxiu Restaurant, there was once a distinguished guest, the only son of General Wei Yuan.
The madam had called the courtesan into the room early, instructing her to serve carefully.
"This young master of General Wei Yuan's family, he's handsome and kind, but you must please him and be more cautious, got it?"
"Some people, with the heart of an owl and appearance of a crane, don't be fooled by their looks, or you'll suffer!"
At that time, young Han Shuangjiang learned a new idiom—"a heart of an owl, an appearance of a crane!"
Looking at Chu Huaixu, she inexplicably thought of this phrase.
Only, it wasn't negative in her heart.
At this moment, Liu Chengqi let out a cold snort, using his other hand to suddenly strike, directly making a move.
The outer sect forbids private fights, yet this Senior Brother Liu seemed fearless.
This made Chu Huaixu cautious, but he wasn't afraid in his heart.
He released the grip on his wrist, slightly dodging back just right to avoid the palm, only hearing the gust of wind.
Liu Chengqi was slightly shocked, not expecting his seasoned self to miss!
This young man with the last name Chu looked unfamiliar, definitely a newcomer.
Logically, he should just barely be at the start of the Acupoint Opening Stage.
"How can his movements be so agile?" Liu Chengqi was puzzled.
Could it be, he's also a practitioner from the mortal world?
But why would a practitioner spend money to learn such a trivial skill from me!
"Coincidence, it must be a coincidence!"
Liu Chengqi shouted angrily, "Since you say I took the silver taels, let me show you the power of the 'Heaven and Earth Infinite Eight Trigrams Palm'!"
It's uncertain whether this guy is naturally dramatic or just used to teaching others, but every time he makes a move, he announces the name of the technique aloud.
The carefree players actually love to do this too, it just doesn't feel right if they don't shout it out.
"[Mist Flying Flowers]!"
Chu Huaixu dodged again, once more evading perfectly.
Han Shuangjiang watched from the side, feeling relieved that there was no real danger.
But after this happened several times, even the dullest person could recognize his uniqueness.
There's no helping it, as he had reached the pinnacle of physical control.
Even when he was an ordinary person, he could kill Patrol Office's Xue Hu with a single blow, so what about now?
Is the Sixth Orifice Powerhouse really so impressive?
Chu Huaixu had added 1 point to his [Physique] attribute, and he was cultivating the 'Refining Sword Formulas' which combined inner and outer cultivation, so his physical qualities were excellent.
Even if there was a gap between him and Liu Chengqi, he could make up for it with his perfect body control.
Moreover, as an experienced companion player in 'Borrowed Sword,' he was fond of 'opening an account,' so his low-level combat experience was incredibly rich.
As Liu Chengqi shouted "Palm Thunder" once more, Chu Huaixu seemed to predict it, sidestepping early to create an opening, then punched forward.
He didn't shout out, but he felt he couldn't lose momentum, and since he didn't use any special skills, he could only shout silently in his heart:
"Normal attack!!"
This punch landed squarely on Liu Chengqi's stomach, almost bending him like a shrimp, and he doubled over.
This Senior Brother Liu opened his mouth wide, making a dry retching sound.
His rage began to spread infinitely, no longer resembling his previous gentle appearance.
Liu Chengqi has been in the Outer Sect for years, always praised and never suffering such humiliation or beating.
He endured the pain, his eyes filled with bloodshot lines, and the veins on his neck bulged more visibly.
His voice was hoarse, both palms striking out: "[Heaven and Earth Endless]!"
This was the final move.
"Watch out!" Han Shuangjiang exclaimed from the side, no longer maintaining any icy demeanor.
The two were too close, and Liu Chengqi's hands moved too fast.
It was almost as if, after taking Chu Huaixu's punch, he was counterattacking at point-blank range.
There was no way to dodge, absolutely none!
However, if she could realize this, how could the experienced Chu Huaixu not know?
Regarding this, he didn't care at all.
Isn't this situation in-game just like trading hits with the enemy!
What he cared about was whether the opponent's flaw was big enough!
In the blink of an eye, Chu Huaixu used his exceptional body control to twist his body at a somewhat exaggerated angle.
His eyes focused, and those dark pupils locked onto Liu Chengqi's eyes.
Even though he dodged with all his might, he couldn't evade half a palm, causing sharp pain in his waist.
However, his tolerance for pain seemed to have risen a notch lately.
Unlike Liu Chengqi's retching after a heavy punch, Chu Huaixu didn't even let out a grunt.
He struck forward with another punch, then swept down with his right leg.
The already unstable Liu Chengqi couldn't keep his balance and began to fall backward.
As he tilted back about 20 degrees, Chu Huaixu's large hand swiftly grabbed his flashy white robe with golden trim, lifting him up.
Under the immense strength, Liu Chengqi's body was indeed lifted slightly.
Chu Huaixu certainly didn't intend to stabilize him out of kindness.
Suddenly, his grip loosened, his elbow lifted backward, and his right hand opened to form a palm that slapped fiercely on Liu Chengqi's chest!
The striking angle was bizarre, yet strangely familiar to Liu Chengqi.
With a booming sound, Liu Chengqi was struck down by Chu Huaixu's palm.
During the entire process of falling, this large hand remained pressed against his chest, essentially pressing him to the ground with one palm.
Rib after rib broke.
Under Han Shuangjiang's incredulous gaze, facing Liu Chengqi's eyes filled with terror, Chu Huaixu, who had remained silent, finally spoke slowly, his voice calm, without any indication of joy or anger, and uttered word by word:
"[Eight Desolates Roaming Dragon]."
