BXBX NOVEL Chapter 119 - 119: Defeated
“I’m still cultivating ancient martial arts. Is there a problem?” Chu Qing was irritable.
“Stop doing it. If you’re doing this for self-defense, I can protect you. If you need strength, you can join a sect and be a disciple to cultivate their Tao techniques. 1 see that your face is pale. It must be the backlash from your cultivation technique, so you sleep in class during the day to recuperate.”
“If you persist like this, your injuries will only worsen. I have a healing medicine that I personally formulated. Please use it. Chu Qing, I hope you will heed my advice and not be stubborn. I’m not sure how much you’re willing to listen to me, but if 1 find out that you haven’t stopped cultivating, I will end our relationship. I don’t want a man who can’t perform in…”
Tang Ziyan spoke extremely solemnly. She took out a long tube of reagent from his pocket and placed it on the table. It was filled with a light blue liquid.
Chu Qing was not in the mood to pay attention to the so-called healing medicine for the time being. He was completely stunned by the word “no” that Tang Ziyan said. Those two words kept echoing in Chu Qing’s mind, making him puzzled.
What was going on? Would practicing ancient martial arts affect one’s sexual performance? Also, why was she so sure that she was injured because of the backlash of her cultivation technique? She was really arrogant.
As for Tao techniques, Chu Qing thought of those people. The power they used was genuine spiritual power. In other words, what he was cultivating now was Tang Ziyan’s so-called Tao technique and not the ancient martial arts he thought.
A thought flashed across Chu Qing’s mind. He felt that he had discovered something important. He buried this inspiration deep in his heart and grabbed the tube of reagent on the table. “Thank you.”
“May I ask what realm you’ve cultivated?” Tang Ziyan asked when Chu Qing put away the reagent.
“Hmm…” Chu Qing thought for a moment and said, “Martial realm, I guess. Why? What about you?”
Chu Qing felt a surge of determination within him. While he acknowledged that he couldn’t match Tang Ziyan in terms of academic achievements, he was confident in his cultivation abilities. He believed he could surpass Tang Ziyan in that aspect.
“You want to compete?” Tang Ziyan keenly caught the meaning behind Chu Qing’s words and said with a smile.
“Sure.” Chu Qing thought about how Tang Ziyan would be defeated later and was excited.
From the leftover fruit plate on the table, Chu Qing took out an entire walnut kernel and placed it on the table. He also took out three clean cups from the plate and placed them on the table. He used one of them to cover the walnut kernel.
With a swift and fluid motion, Chu Qing skillfully rearranged the three white porcelain cups on the table, creating a mesmerizing display of speed and precision. The cups seemed to blur in his hands, leaving behind afterimages as he completed the maneuver. He paused, meeting Tang Ziyan’s gaze with a challenging look as if daring her to match his display of skill.
Tang Ziyan narrowed her beautiful eyes and her smile did not disappear. She met Chu Qing’s gaze and knocked on the leftmost cup with her silver fork.
Phew.
Chu Qing let out the breath he had been holding in his stomach and turned to leave. He did not stay any longer. Watching Chu Qing leave the dining room dejectedly, Tang Ziyan stood up and walked to the spot where Chu Qing had been standing just now. She reached out and flipped open the cup on the leftmost side. Indeed, there was an entire walnut lying quietly below.
Thinking of Chu Qing’s defeated expression just now, Tang Ziyan smiled brightly. Her little man was really getting more and more fun.
Chu Qing’s good mood the entire afternoon was ruined by this matter. This was too hurtful to his pride. He was actually defeated by a woman..
