Hearing this, Liu Ergou's eyes suddenly lit up. He had originally thought the special training consisted only of the part where he and Ning Hua fought, not realizing there was a second part. This was a genuine surprise.
But looking at Ning Hua lying on the bed, her cheeks flushed slightly, Liu Ergou couldn't help but swallow. Right now, Ning Hua is far more tempting than any special training.
As he watched, Liu Ergou found himself losing control. Slowly rising from his chair, he leaned towards Ning Hua's delicate lips to kiss them.
To his surprise, Ning Hua didn't try to stop him. Instead, she closed her eyes with an anticipatory look.
Soon, the two couldn't help but press their lips together. However, Liu Ergou only grazed the surface, his lips just lightly touching hers before he pulled away.
Looking at Ning Hua's shy deanor, Liu Ergou couldn't help but ask, "Senior Sister, why did you suddenly let kiss you? I rember if I so much as touched you in the past, you'd want to kick to death. Why the sudden change of heart?"
Hearing Liu Ergou's teasing, Ning Hua couldn't hold back. She raised her hand and smacked his arm hard.
Then she said indignantly, "Hmph, don't you dare play innocent after taking advantage of ! From the sound of it, you didn't want to kiss . In that case, if you ever touch again, I'll just get up and kick you to death! Hmph!"
With that, Ning Hua turned her head away unhappily, her expression clearly saying, 'I don't want to talk to you.'
Seeing this, Liu Ergou couldn't help but chuckle inwardly. Ning Hua isn't rejecting anymore! This is fantastic news! At the very least, I won't have to take any more beatings. As for everything else… I can think about that later. The thought made him break into a goofy grin.
His foolish laughter successfully caught Ning Hua's attention.
Looking at the endlessly grinning Liu Ergou, Ning Hua spoke with irritation, "Er Gou, what are you laughing at like an idiot? You look a bit simple-minded! Let's see if you're still laughing after I tell you about the second stage of the special training!"
Hearing the words "special training," Liu Ergou imdiately sobered up.
"Senior Sister, please tell !"
Seeing Liu Ergou's serious expression, Ning Hua began to describe the second stage of the training.
"The second stage of the special training isn't complicated. It's to teach you how to use the True Qi within your body. Although you've reached the Houtian Realm, I've noticed that you have no idea how to use your True Qi in a fight and rely entirely on brute force!
"After the first stage, you learned techniques and can now turn them into instinct. This second stage will teach you how to use your True Qi! It will allow you to unleash your true combat power!"
Hearing this, Liu Ergou's eyes lit up again.
This is great! It sounds impressive. By then, there probably won't be many people who can beat . Even when facing Ning Hua, I won't have to be afraid anymore.
Naturally, Ning Hua was unaware of what Liu Ergou was thinking. She continued, "I was originally going to have you practice the Internal Cultivation thods of the Flying Swallow Sect. However, since you already possess True Qi, it proves you have your own internal thods. That ans you cannot practice the Flying Swallow Sect's thods.
"Now, demonstrate your internal cultivation thod for . I want to see what it's all about."
Liu Ergou didn't hesitate for a mont and imdiately began to cultivate in front of her.
Although it wasn't morning, so he couldn't absorb the rising purple qi, Liu Ergou could still circulate his True Qi through his body. It's completely pointless, but if she wants to see it, I'll demonstrate it for her.
Soon, one full cycle of circulation was complete.
As she watched intently, Ning Hua's brow furrowed tightly; it was clear she had noticed a problem. After Liu Ergou finished, he asked expectantly, "Senior Sister, what did you see?"
Ning Hua shook her head. "I can't see anything. How is it that when you practice your Internal Cultivation thods, your True Qi doesn't increase at all? That's just outrageous. I've never heard of such an internal thod! Are you cultivating an incomplete or useless art?"
Seeing the puzzled Ning Hua, Liu Ergou imdiately explained, "You've misunderstood my internal thod, Senior Sister. It's like this, my cultivation is rather special. It can only be practiced in the morning by absorbing the first ray of purple qi at sunrise. Practicing at any other ti is completely useless. All I can do is circulate it for a cycle!"
After listening to Liu Ergou's explanation, Ning Hua's expression changed to one of sudden realization.
"Oh, I get it now! No wonder you're at the Houtian Realm. So you've been absorbing purple qi every day! If you were absorbing purple qi every day and still hadn't reached the Houtian Realm, you might as well find a place to hang yourself!
"But then again, your cultivation thod is truly impressive. To think it can absorb the rising purple qi... this is the first ti I've ever heard of such a thing! Impressive!"
Saying this, Ning Hua gave Liu Ergou a thumbs-up.
However, her brow soon furrowed again.
"Tsk, but on second thought, sothing still doesn't seem right. Since your technique can absorb purple qi, it can't be that circulating it at other tis has absolutely no effect at all! You should know, all Internal Cultivation thods practiced in the Ancient Martial Sects require circulation to gradually strengthen True Qi! Otherwise, you'd never be able to advance in your entire life! But you…"
As she spoke, Ning Hua fell into deep thought.
Liu Ergou stood by, not daring to disturb her. Ning Hua pondered for over ten minutes before she finally spoke.
"Er Gou, let's do this. When you cultivate, let place my hand on you. I want to see for myself what's really going on with this internal cultivation thod of yours!"
Liu Ergou was a bit confused. "Ah? Why, Senior Sister?"
Seeing his puzzled look, Ning Hua explained, "I'm going to use my hidden force to probe it a little. Although I'll only get a rough idea, it should be enough. And if that doesn't work, we still have Master!"
After hearing the explanation, Liu Ergou didn't hesitate at all and once again entered a state of cultivation. anwhile, Ning Hua carefully used a surge of her hidden force to probe the situation.
One cycle later, Liu Ergou ceased his cultivation.
Ning Hua slowly opened her eyes. Now, however, she was no longer puzzled. She'd had an epiphany.
"Er Gou, I know what's going on with your True Qi! I have to say, it's truly extraordinary. I'm starting to get a little jealous!"
Liu Ergou imdiately asked, "What is it? Senior Sister, tell quickly!"
