Leng Xuan looked at the slim figure of the girl, feeling inexplicably sweet inside.
Zhao Xiaotian said with a strange smile, "Boss, Zhou the Beauty actually invited you over for dinner, haha, when did you two start getting cozy with each other?"
Leng Xuan found it amusing. Cozy? They weren’t at that stage yet!
But such things were hard to explain; the more you sared, the darker it beca, so he let out a light sigh and said, "Alright, don’t go spreading rumors."
Just then, Jack noticed the two of them, flashed a grin, and scurried over, saying with a grin, "Boss, you’re here. Teach so martial arts, will you?"
"I want to learn too, Boss!" Zhao Xiaotian quickly added.
Leng Xuan looked around and noticed a grove of trees on the left. It was usually a lover’s paradise for students, but it was empty during class ti on weekdays. He said, "Alright, let’s head over there."
Jack and Zhao Xiaotian high-fived and exclaid excitedly, "Yay!"
Once they arrived at an open space, Leng Xuan glanced at Jack and said, "Jack, show the martial art that you’re most proud of."
"You got it!" Jack responded and, imitating Bruce Lee, twitched his nose and took a stance. He perford a set of martial arts moves; his fist movents were accompanied by a whooshing sound, "whoosh, whoosh!" It really had quite the montum.
Leng Xuan and Zhao Xiaotian stood by and watched, with Zhao Xiaotian clapping and cheering, shouting "Good!" from ti to ti, clearly very excited.
However, Leng Xuan’s expression remained unchanged. He imdiately recognized that Jack was practicing a common Chinese martial art known as Xingyi Palm, also called Xinyi Liuhe Quan, which ranks alongside Tai Chi Quan and Baguazhang as one of the Neijia or Inner Family martial arts. Its style is characterized by straightforward movents, which is different from Baguazhang’s lateral moves and Tai Chi Quan’s centered stability. Xingyi Palm’s direct and straightforward strikes are most suitable for the battlefield. Without fancy techniques, its extended force is also the fastest. In the midst of battle, amidst thousands of troops, finding room to maneuver is difficult, one can only go straight forward, moving and striking simultaneously, just like the breach of the Yellow River’s levees.
After finishing a set of moves, Jack was neither red-faced nor out of breath, which showed the kid had quite a stamina. He looked at Leng Xuan with so pride and smirked, "Boss, how about that? I looked cool, didn’t I?"
Leng Xuan smiled indifferently, neither praising nor criticizing. He casually placed his hands behind his back and said lightly, "Attack with your Xingyi Palm. I won’t fight back, but I can still make you tumble over."
Jack knew that Boss Leng Xuan was quite formidable, but seeing him stand with hands behind his back, claiming he could make Jack fall over without using his hands, was sothing Jack found hard to believe. He laughed and said, "Boss, aren’t you underestimating ? What if I hurt you?"
Zhao Xiaotian felt Leng Xuan might be going a bit too far, but he seed to have an innate trust in Leng Xuan and couldn’t help but say, "Jack, you think you can hurt the Boss? Don’t be a braggart!"
Jack laughed but didn’t say much. He imdiately charged at Leng Xuan, throwing a straight punch with less than a third of his usual power, obviously not wanting to embarrass Leng Xuan or hurt him. Little did he know that Leng Xuan dodged lightly, and as Jack turned his head, he found Leng Xuan already behind him, causing him to break out in a cold sweat. If he had encountered an enemy, that one punch would have pretty much sealed his fate.
