Chapter 242: Xia Country Martial Arts

Li Yaqian looked over, and three young people fell into her view.

Her eyes fixed on the one in the middle, and a flash of surprise crossed her gaze.

"Liu... Liu Yao?" Li Yaqian recognized Liu Yao.

Liu Yao was her high school classmate; back in high school, the two had a quite good relationship.

It was just that in college, they were admitted to different universities, and from then on, their contact decreased and their relationship gradually faded.

Li Yaqian did not expect to run into Liu Yao here.

The emotions in her heart were extremely complex.

"What a coincidence, meeting you here." Liu Yao was somewhat happy.

"Hmm, how did you come here?"

"Me?... I quit my job, became a freelancer, and came here to scout locations and film videos."

"A blogger?" Li Yaqian revealed an envious look, "What kind?"

"Hmm... promoting national martial arts and Immortal Cultivation," Liu Yao said casually.

On the internet, there were still many bloggers of the same type as him.

The videos those bloggers made had more special effects and were even more flashy.

Especially one blogger's video, where an old Heavenly Master said, "You must believe in science," and then rode a sword away, which became a meme on the internet.

"National martial arts? Immortal Cultivation?" Li Yaqian was slightly stunned, and a sense of discomfort flashed through her heart.

She did not expect that this former classmate would actually become this kind of blogger.

This was just to deceive people and grab attention, right?

However, she did not say much; everyone had their own way of living.

"Look, this is the video we just finished filming; after some post-processing later, it can be released." Liu Yao took out the semi-finished video.

He was not afraid that Li Yaqian would take it seriously.

People nowadays are all like this: the more you say it is real, the more they will think it is special effects.

Moreover, even if it were exposed, Liu Yao would not be afraid.

Li Yaqian looked over.

Liu Yao enthusiastically said to the two people beside Li Yaqian.

"Let's watch together, and give me a follow later."

Jie Qiu and Tang Ke leaned in.

In the video, a young man was wearing a white robe, his gaze carrying a bit of free-spiritedness.

Behind him were vast snow-covered mountains.

Several large clusters of snowflakes were kicked up, and suddenly, the young man soared into the air, stepping on the snowflakes, flying directly up, possessing quite a bit of the temperament of an Immortal.

"You... this was filmed to look just like the real thing."

After watching the video, the contempt in Li Yaqian's heart disappeared.

The difficulty of filming this video was very high; I am afraid even a professional film crew would find it hard to produce this effect.

Tang Ke widened his eyes: "Xia Country... Kung Fu?"

The work he used to be engaged in was related to this field.

The video before his eyes looked like it had not yet undergone processing.

Shocking the foreigner, Liu Yao was full of pride; he pointed at Liu Yuqing: "Impressive, right? This is my brother."

Tang Ke looked at Liu Yuqing, a look of shock appearing on his face: "The legendary Xia Country Kung Fu... does it really exist?"

Li Yaqian smiled and did not say anything, but she did look at this former classmate with a bit more respect.

Being able to bluff even a foreigner showed that this video was filmed really realistically.

"Of course it exists," Liu Yao said with a smile, "but what you just saw wasn't Xia Country Kung Fu, but... Daoist Method."

Liu Yuqing was not from Xia Country, after all.

"This one is my brother, Zhang Shaoqin; he knows Xia Country Kung Fu."

Tang Ke looked at the three of them, his face carrying a look of admiration.

He could not help but blurt out: "Can you teach me Xia Country Kung Fu? I am willing to pay tuition!"

Jie Qiu frowned, not knowing what he was pondering, and had not spoken the whole time.

Beside them, Li Yaqian smiled: "Mr. Tang Ke, Xia Country does indeed have Kung Fu, but it is mostly for strengthening the body."

Tang Ke, however, insisted: "Please, sir, teach me Xia Country Kung Fu!"

What was in that video was real!

If he could learn it, he might have a chance to take revenge.

"Without the Master's permission, my martial arts will not be taught to others." Zhang Shaoqin looked at Tang Ke, a trace of astonishment flashing in his eyes.

Because he had discovered, to his shock, that Tang Ke actually possessed the talent of a Spirit Martial Artist.

This meant that Tang Ke could also become a Spirit Martial Artist.

This was the first time he had discovered anyone other than himself and the Master, Lin Ping, who had the talent of a Spirit Martial Artist.

Liu Yao smiled: "Mr. Tang Ke, the study of our Xia Country martial arts requires very strong talent; those without talent will never reach the Beginner level in their entire lives."

Even he did not have the talent of a Spirit Martial Artist, so how could this foreigner have it?

Tang Ke was disappointed.

Beside them, Zhang Shaoqin's voice was cold: "He has the talent of a Spirit Martial Artist."

"What?" Liu Yao was stunned instantly.

He remained silent for a long time, finally looking at Zhang Shaoqin.

"Shaoqin, you wouldn't want your master's legacy to be cut off, would you?"

Zhang Shaoqin: "..."

For some reason, he always felt that this statement from Liu Yao sounded strange.

However, after thinking about it, he felt that what Liu Yao said made some sense.

In this world, he was the only one who could walk the master's path of a Spirit Martial Artist.

He looked at Tang Ke, and many thoughts flashed through his mind: "I will consider it further."

Beside him, Li Yaqian was slightly stunned; she had not expected such a thing to happen.

Weren't they all just joking?

How could it be taken seriously?

Just at this moment, a slightly frivolous voice came over.

"Daxia Kung Fu? Flowery fists and embroidered legs."

A group of six people walked over.

One of them was a Daxia person, and the other five appeared to be from Li Zhu Country.

The one who spoke was the leader of these six, a sturdy-looking woman named Na Ke.

Her face carried an aggressive gaze, which also held a trace of contempt.

Her gaze finally landed on Jie Qiu: "I didn't expect you all to be so lucky as to have escaped here."

Jie Qiu's expression was gloomy: "Na Ke, I didn't expect it to be you who came."

Na Ke's gaze swept over Tang Ke.

Tang Ke immediately felt as if he were being stared at by a venomous snake.

A strong sense of threat washed over him.

He instantly understood that these people were from the Fukong Sect.

"Since you know it's us who have come, why not obediently get out of the way?

This is the Snow Mountain; be careful that some accident doesn't happen."

Li Yaqian felt baffled, but looking at the few people in front of her, she also felt a sense of threat.

These people, at a glance, were clearly not good people.

"This is Daxia." Jie Qiu's expression was cold and stern.

Although his combat ability was very strong, he was still far from being able to deal with the trump cards of the Fukong Sect in front of him, the Super Soldiers.

"Daxia?" The eyes of the few Li Zhu Country people revealed playful smiles.

Na Ke even had a flash of disdain in her eyes: "What I hate most is Daxia, especially that so-called Daxia Kung Fu, it's trash."

When Na Ke was young, she lived a wild life.

One of her lovers had once smuggled drugs into Daxia, only to be beaten down by a member of the Daxia Country Law Enforcement Guard during a fight.

She had always held a grudge against Daxia Country.

At this time, the Xia Country person next to Na Ke and the others, Zhao Weishuang, fawningly laughed: "Miss Na Ke is right, Xia Country's Kung Fu is all just little tricks to fool children."

Na Ke looked at Zhang Shaoqin: "Look, even you Xia Country people don't acknowledge the so-called Xia Country Kung Fu."

Beside them, anger appeared on Liu Yao's face, and Li Yaqian also felt uncomfortable in her heart.

No matter how weak Xia Country Kung Fu was, it was still one of the cultures inherited by Xia Country.

Allowing a foreigner to mock it was something no one felt good about.

Especially since that Xia Country person among them was also helping to mock Xia Country Kung Fu.

Zhang Shaoqin looked at the few people coldly: "Overseas barbarians, you don't learn your lesson.

Back then, when Master went overseas to seek the exotic, Gailuo Sanshi once spoke insults and was decapitated by Master with a single sword, beating the entire Royal Court into submission and causing a change of dynasty.

Now, you come to mock Daxia martial arts; it is truly a joke."

"Gailuo Sanshi? A figure from a thousand years ago, and you're making things up?" Behind Na Ke, a burly man spoke, his face full of mockery, "And your master beat the Royal Court into a change of dynasty?

Call your master over, and I'll let him see what true strength is!"

"You're courting death!"

On Zhang Shaoqin's face, anger arose.

Master must not be insulted.

Instantly, his figure shifted, and an afterimage appeared in the air.

"Those who insult Master shall be killed without mercy!"

Zhang Shaoqin actually acted directly.

He threw a punch, directly meeting the burly man.

The burly man was slightly stunned, and for the first time, a grave expression appeared on his face.

He was a Super Soldier, and the only ones who could defeat him were other Super Soldiers.

Yet, for the first time, he smelled the scent of a threat from a human.

However, he did not show weakness either.

He was a Super Soldier blessed by the gods!

He extended his fist and immediately attacked.

Crack!

The sound of bones shattering came, and an indescribable pain surged through the burly man's body.

Boom!

His massive body, a frame weighing nearly two hundred jin, was actually sent flying backward.

A trace of blood still remained at the corner of his mouth.

This arrogant man from Li Zhu Country had been defeated by Zhang Shaoqin in just one strike.

Zhang Shaoqin looked down at the man from a superior position and coldly spat out a phrase he had learned in modern society: "Is that it?"

Around them, in the small town, many passersby wore expressions of shock.

"That was too fierce!"

"This young man looks so thin and weak, how did he send that big guy flying?"

"Is our Daxia kung fu really this strong?"

"Satisfying, I've long found those foreigners unpleasant!"

Nearby, Tang Ke's eyes were wide open, his heart filled with immense admiration.

For the first time, a grave expression appeared in Jie Qiu's eyes.

He knew more; that burly man was no ordinary big guy, but a Super Soldier.

The power of a Super Soldier was such that even ten mercenaries skilled in combat combined could not defeat one.

And yet, he had been defeated by that Daxia man?

For the first time, a grave expression appeared on Na Ke's face.

She had not expected to encounter a monster in Daxia Country with strength comparable to a Super Soldier.

She glanced at her companion on the ground: "Trash."

Then, she looked at Zhang Shaoqin, her gaze carrying a hint of killing intent: "Do you dare leave your name? Once this matter is over, I will come to seek instruction."

"Taiqing Mountain, under the Immortal Lin Ping, Zhang Shaoqin," Zhang Shaoqin replied coldly.

He glanced at the burly man: "If this were a thousand years ago, I would have killed you today!"

The burly man revealed a trace of fear.

He truly felt the killing intent in Zhang Shaoqin's eyes.

Nearby, Liu Yao breathed a sigh of relief: "Shaoqin, well done."

He had truly been afraid that Zhang Shaoqin, in a fit of anger, would have killed that Li Zhu Country man directly.

If that happened, it would be a criminal case and a diplomatic incident.

Zhang Shaoqin's gaze was icy as he flicked his sleeves and left.

He would naturally not let go of someone who dared to insult his master.

During their exchange just now, he had already left a strand of Extreme Spirit Power inside that burly man's body.

As long as he detonated that strand of Extreme Spirit Power, the burly man would surely die.

In modern society, there were all kinds of powerful weapons; Zhang Shaoqin knew that, on his own, he could not oppose an entire country.

……

"The Dao of the Main God lies in seeing through life and death?"

Deep in the mountains, Lin Chao watched flowers bloom and wither, a contemplative mood appearing in his eyes.

After becoming an Eighth-tier God, what he pursued was to reach the Ninth Tier and become a Main God.

Even a Main God had been refined into a War Puppet; his current strength, placed among the myriad worlds, was likely still too weak.

"This world seems impossible to leave, yet people from the outside can enter."

Lin Chao frowned.

He meant that staying in this world was very passive.

Of course, Lin Chao was not overly worried.

This world was very special; even an existence like the Dao Ancestor could only leave behind a single trace.

Now, the things he wanted to do were, first, to improve his strength, and second, to find the Butterfly Bird and those old acquaintances from Wu Kingdom.

"I have experienced so many lifetimes, gone through birth and death so many times; have I not yet seen through life and death?"

Lin Chao sighed leisurely.

Walking amidst the green mountains and clear waters, Lin Chao saw many landscapes he had never seen before.

He had seen flowers bloom at night in uninhabited places, only to wither the next day, existing for but a moment.

He had also seen a wild wolf lick its wounds, feed food to its cubs, and leave the pack in loneliness, its whereabouts unknown.

"So, this life and death—is it my life and death, the life and death of all things, or perhaps... the life and death of the world?"

Lin Chao's gaze was deep.

Among the Eighth Rank, he had already traveled extremely far and it was difficult to progress further.

"It seems I can only pin my hopes on the next reincarnation."

Reaching the Ninth Tier from the Eighth Rank was a matter of enlightenment.

If he successfully reached the Ninth Tier during the process of reincarnation,

then, upon returning to the Main World, he would also be able to instantly reach the Ninth Stage Main God Realm.

This was the strength of a Main God.

Even if severely wounded, one could quickly recover their status.

Of course, higher-level methods were another matter.

"The matter on Snow Mountain should be fermenting by now."

Lin Chao already had an idea in his heart.

This time, through the Transcendence Fragment on Snow Mountain, he would find a few spokespeople.

Regardless, having more subordinates was always a good thing.

At this moment, Lin Chao took out his mobile phone.

The signal in the mountains is not very good.

Lin Chao saw that he had received quite a few messages.

There were some from his parents, mostly telling him to take care of himself and buy some fruit to eat.

There was also one from Qi Xueyan, which contained a selfie of her.

Big wavy hair, long legs, yet she did not appear plump, but rather delicate and graceful, with a slender figure and a sense of pure innocence.

"I am in Li Zhu Country."

"Is there anything you want me to bring back for you?"

Lin Chao remembered that Qi Xueyan seemed to be representing the school for an exchange in Li Zhu Country, and would return in about a month.

Lin Chao thought for a moment and replied with a few sentences.

Then, he turned his gaze to the message sent by Chen Longxuan.

It had been sent just a short while ago.

"Look quick, Xia Country Kung Fu!"

Among them, a video was also shared.

"Foreigner provokes Xia Country Kung Fu on the street, young handsome man proves national martial arts with one punch!"

Lin Chao finished watching the video and smiled: "Shaoqin, sigh..."

Under this video, there were also quite a few comments.

"Promote our national prestige!"

"Well done!"

"This can't be staged, right? That handsome guy looks so weak and frail, how did he punch that burly man away?"

"He is not an ordinary person, he really knows martial arts. I have followed his account, he has real skills!"

"Looks like internet celebrity hype at first glance. Where do I join the group to get money?"

Lin Chao scanned the comments casually, his gaze calm.

Online arguments are too full of hostility, easily causing people to get hot-headed and lose their temper.

Lin Chao had seen too much and did not care about these things.

However, he turned his gaze toward those few foreigners.

"There seems to be something peculiar about them.

Once the Supernatural on the Snow Mountain finishes brewing, I will resolve them all together."

Lin Chao thought for a moment and turned off his phone.

In the real world, his life had always been very Ordinary; he was just the most ordinary university student.

He loved life, loved his motherland, and believed in science.

Lin Chao soared into the air, his figure disappearing from sight.

Li Zhu Country.

Xier Daxue.

Qi Xueyan was wearing a long green dress, her long hair hanging down to her waist; she held her phone, her slender fingers tapping on the screen.

"The scenery here is quite nice, it's just that I'm not really used to the food."

After sending the message, a smile flashed across her face.

"Xueyan!" At this moment, a female student came from behind and slapped her palm forcefully onto Qi Xueyan's back.

Qi Xueyan's complexion instantly turned pale, and an indescribable pain surged up, vanishing in a flash.

"What's wrong?" Qi Xueyan's complexion was still somewhat pale.

The new girl clearly did not notice the abnormality on Qi Xueyan's face: "Xueyan, shall we go to Hailun Jiuguan to have fun tonight? There are lots of handsome guys!"

"I'm not going." Qi Xueyan shook her head.

She had always refused such places.

Even if she were to go, it should be with the person she liked.

"Senior Moli will be there too." The girl said excitedly, "He is the campus heartthrob of Xier Daxue."

"I have some things to do tonight, sorry." Qi Xueyan still refused.

"What a pity." A look of disappointment flashed in the girl's eyes.

Late at night, Qi Xueyan returned to her bedroom.

She stood in front of the large mirror, lifted her clothes, and revealed her snow-white skin.

She looked at her back, which was as smooth as jade, and a trace of doubt appeared on her pale face: "I clearly checked and there was nothing wrong, why do I feel like it's getting more and more painful?"

Especially when touched by someone, that pain was even more indescribable.

After getting dressed, Qi Xueyan got up and turned on her computer, as she usually did.

At this moment, a few large characters suddenly appeared on the computer screen.

"Do... you believe in fate?"

"Got a virus?" Qi Xueyan was slightly stunned; those large characters filled the screen and could not be deleted no matter what.

Thinking for a moment, Qi Xueyan pressed the power button to restart.

When encountering a problem that cannot be solved, just turn it off and restart.

Turning on the computer, everything returned to normal.

Those large characters disappeared, and a smile curled at the corner of Qi Xueyan's mouth as she continued to do her homework.

Deep within the Fukong Sect, a massive black gorilla lay unconscious; it had been asleep for ten thousand years.

In recent years, it finally slowly regained some residual consciousness, seeking a method of recovery.

However, right at this moment, deep within its mind, a spark of Spirituality flickered.

This deity, which had lingered on for over ten thousand years, suddenly lost its breath at this moment, fading away and dying.

The Fukong Sect also underwent tremendous changes at this time.

Quite a few people noticed that the great gorilla had fallen.

In the bedroom, Qi Xueyan stretched and said, "Why is it that the more homework I do, the more energetic I feel?"

Without thinking too much, Qi Xueyan bathed and went to sleep.

Only when she woke up the next day, she felt her state was not very good; on her snow-white, pretty face, there was a long tear track.

"Huh, why is there an extra book in my bedroom?"

PS: Do not project this onto reality, do not project this onto the country; these are two different worlds.
