"Take you as my master?" Lin Tian thought he had heard wrong and couldn’t help but repeat it.
Having a beautiful master was sothing nice, but this master was too young. Although Ning Luoxi was slightly older than him, it was only by two or three years.
Last ti, Zi Yan also wanted to be his master in order to teach the Nine Needle Technique. Nowadays, do all the beauties want to be soone else’s master? Lin Tian felt helpless inside.
"Miss Luoxi, I appreciate and admire your generosity, without discriminating against different schools, but as for taking a master, I think we should forget about it. You’re not that much older than , why not be martial brothers and sisters instead?" Lin Tian said sincerely, opting for a compromise. After all, he had already accepted Zi Yan as his martial sister, so having one more was fine.
Ning Luoxi couldn’t help but show a smile when she saw his rare seriousness, but quickly suppressed it and said, "I was just kidding with you. I’m certainly not capable of taking such a big disciple. Although our relationship this ti is more of a partnership, you truly have helped us a lot. To express my gratitude, I can teach you the teor Burst."
"Then allow to thank Miss Luoxi first," Lin Tian said earnestly.
With the power of the teor Burst, it was definitely a formidable Ancient Martial technique, and the fact that Ning Luoxi was willing to share it showed a breadth of mind that was worthy of respect.
"The teor Burst doesn’t require a specific thod of True Qi circulation, but it has high demands on the body. Those who haven’t practiced body refinent can’t withstand the force of teor Burst. Even if they force it out, they might end up seriously injured or even dead. Seeing that your body is even more robust than mine, you are the perfect candidate for practicing teor Burst," Ning Luoxi was a woman of action and didn’t beat around the bush, beginning to explain to Lin Tian imdiately.
"I saw you execute teor Burst, and it looked very standard, even more powerful than when I do it, but..." Ning Luoxi paused for a mont, glanced at Lin Tian, and continued, "you have the form, but not the essence."
"The reason your burst is more powerful is that you’re naturally stronger than I am, but you could amplify the power of teor Burst even more," she pointed out Lin Tian’s shortcomings.
Lin Tian admitted, "Don’t hesitate to speak frankly, I have thick skin, and I’m not a little girl who blushes after being scolded a couple of tis."
Admitting to having thick skin so openly was indeed rare, and Ning Luoxi had never heard anyone boast about it before.
However, she didn’t respond to that and continued on her own, "The fla breaks through darkness, the teor disrupts the cosmos; these words capture the essence of teor Burst. The teor breaks through the galaxy and shatters the darkness to shine in the world. Its blazing light is but a fleeting bloom, yet its montum is unstoppable. As long as you grasp this essence when you exert your force, the teor Burst will have both form and spirit."
"This sounds too mystical, and although the principle is understood by all, it’s not easy to grasp it in practice," Lin Tian shook his head, indicating the difficulty of integrating such theories into reality.
"Did you think Ancient Martial techniques were as simple as eating and drinking? Take your ti to think about it, we’ve arrived at Tianfu Restaurant. Ti to get off," Ning Luoxi said.
As they talked, they reached the Xiao Family’s branch of the Heavenly Mansion Restaurant, where Ning Luoxi parked the car on the roadside. By this late hour, the roads were empty with hardly any vehicles or pedestrians, and even the security guards at the distant restaurant were dozing off.
After parking the car, Ning Luoxi got out and hesitated before saying, "Lin Tian, get out, I have sothing to say."
What does this little girl want to do? Could it be that she’s planning to take advantage of the emptiness and rob of my virtue? Lin Tian shalessly thought. Glancing at the soundly sleeping Xiao Manxuan in the back seat, he still opened the door and got out.
"Stretch out your hand," Ning Luoxi said blankly.
Since when did this little girl beco so forward? Lin Tian’s heart fluttered with excitent as he smiled and stretched out his hand. Indeed, Ning Luoxi reached out and gently took his hand.
Although Ning Luoxi was an Ancient Martial Artist who trained regularly, her hands did not bear a single callus. Instead, they were smooth, delicate, and tenderly soft.
He truly wanted to continue holding hands like this, not letting go. Recalling the lines of male leads in television dramas, Lin Tian finally understood what they ant—not so innocent after all. Who would want to let go of such slender, delicate hands?
As Lin Tian’s mind wandered, a sudden force surged, and before he knew it, he was sent flying through the air.
Damn, was the little girl launching a sneak attack? As he flew, he braced himself around the waist, correcting his posture and landing steadily on the ground.
Just as Lin Tian was about to speak, a thought struck him. Sothing was off. This girl wasn’t soone to ss around pointlessly, and the surge of her strength held a mystery that seed in line with teor Burst.
"Do you understand now?" Ning Luoxi said.
So the little girl was testing his strength, Lin Tian’s mind raced as he recalled the process of unleashing the teor Burst, combined with the recent swing of his arm, and the little girl’s mnemonic. Many issues he couldn’t fathom before were now connecting smoothly, giving him an epiphany.
So that’s how it is, Lin Tian realized, feeling that if he were to execute the teor Burst now, it would be much more powerful than before.
However, while that’s what he thought, he said, "Well, it seems I still don’t quite understand, how about we try testing the strength again?"
Those smooth and delicate little hands, how nostalgic, Lin Tian shalessly thought.
Ning Luoxi seed to see right through his dirty little thoughts, gave him a glance, and said, "Let’s leave it at that, if you don’t understand, just practice with your left hand and your right hand."
After saying that, she got into the car without looking back, then waited for Lin Tian to move Xiao Manxuan away.
Damn, does she have to be so decisive? It’s just holding hands, making out to be so kind of pervert, Lin Tian complained to himself without any self-awareness, as he gently carried Xiao Manxuan out. anwhile, Ning Luoxi slamd the car door shut and sped away.
But Lin Tian felt she was running away as if in a panic. Am I really that frightening?
Shaking his head, Lin Tian glanced at Xiao Manxuan; the little girl still hadn’t woken up, still breathing evenly, sound asleep. Was she really that trusting of him to sleep so deeply without fearing he might take advantage?
Lin Tian laughed at himself mockingly, admitting he couldn’t bring himself to do such a thing, and decided to carry her into the Tianfu Restaurant.
The security guard, though sleepy, noticed Lin Tian and the girl, and gestured for them to co over to sign in. But when he blinked, the two figures had vanished without a trace.
"Did I just see things?" the guard rubbed his eyes in confusion.
In fact, Lin Tian had just sped up a bit, and he was already inside the restaurant.
Although it was a branch, the layout and decorative style were similar to the headquarters in Xikou City. With the intent to save on international roaming charges, Lin Tian didn’t make a phone call. Instead, he used his super-vision to cover the area and locate Miss Xiao’s position.
The super-vision had just been upgraded and was more useful than before, like possessing powerful godlike eyes, sweeping through the Tianfu Restaurant in an instant and quickly pinpointing Miss Xiao’s location.
"She really is staying at the Tianfu Restaurant, but she is too hardworking, isn’t she? It’s this late and she still hasn’t slept!" Lin Tian muttered softly.
Miss Xiao was staying in the last three-story villa of the restaurant, and Lin Tian moved quickly, arriving at the entrance of the villa’s hall within a few breaths.
Miss Xiao was still sitting on the sofa browsing through docunts, and sitting opposite her was Mrs. Xiao, whom he hadn’t seen for many days, still looking mature and beautiful.
Mrs. Xiao wore a loose-fitting dress, which couldn’t conceal her admirable figure, exuding a mature charm with a friendly aura. Compared to Li Qingyun, Lin Tian felt Mrs. Xiao was a bit more genuine, and moreover, she and Miss Xiao together looked more like a pair of sisters.
Upon hearing the noise, Miss Xiao and Mrs. Xiao looked up and saw Lin Tian holding Xiao Manxuan at the doorway, mother and daughter were instantly petrified.
This was too unexpected, they couldn’t have imagined that Lin Tian would appear at this restaurant in Japan at such an early hour.
After a while, the two finally ca to their senses. Miss Xiao, looking annoyed, said, "Lin Tian, what are you and Xuanxuan doing here at this ti? Why didn’t you take a flight during the day?"
Lin Tian gently placed Xiao Manxuan on the sofa, then calmly said, "Does Miss Xiao also want to ask why my clothes are dirty?"
