Chereads / Soul Power System / Chapter 88 - Chapter 88

Chapter 88 - Chapter 88

More than 30 years have passed since Tony defeated Cheung in that fight, now it's the year 1991.

During this period of time Tony has remained a secluded hermit away from the public after Zhi Yan's death.

His time is mostly spent on either doing research or helping teach the juniors martial arts.

Since that time Tony has published numerous medical research papers and books, hailed by the scientific public as the "Medical God".

His futuristic knowledge is so advanced that it exceeds the present medical science by over 200 years.

Despite able to lengthen the lifespan of Ip Man and Mrs. Wing Sing Tony still finds death to be quite elusive.

In a white hospital patient's bed lies Mrs. Wing Sing while Ip Man holds her hands gently into his.

After so many years Mrs. Wing Sing's hair already turned grey from her advanced years, she's wearing a blue gown over her pale frail body.

She has a calming smile as she looks weakly into Ip Man's eyes, as though at any moment she will leave this world.

With a raspy voice she slowly saids to her husband, "Darling, when I leave you must make sure to take care of yourself."

She reaches her right hand slowly to Ip Man's face, cradling that familiar face that is hiding away his tears.

Ip Man's eyebrows knit together with his lips pursed as he tries to hold back all the overwhelming emotions in his heart.

Seeing that warm smile on her pale lips he wants to stay by her side longer.

She tells him in her frail slow voice, "Darling, all these years we have been through a lot. I don't want you to have regrets when I leave."

"I only regret not being better to you," Ip Man says while holding that hand on his face.

"But I think...you've been great to me," she saids to him with warmth, "Darling don't hold yourself back. That's the Ip Man I love."

With that her breathing stopped and the machine from the side became a line of static.

The room became deafeningly quiet, leaving only Ip Man and Tony feeling the sadness of her death.

Ip Man closes his eyes but tears still fall as he sobs down his cheeks as he holds her hand.

Putting his hand on his master's shoulder Tony says softly, "Master Ip Man I'm sorry I couldn't do anything."

With all the medicine this was as long as he could possibly extend, at last death still took hold of her.

Tony could feel his heart turning cold as he sees that her life has gone away.

Touching her pale face with warmth Ip Man saids, "The flow of time cannot be avoided for anyone."

"Master!" Tony calls out with sadness.

With a calmness Ip Man told him, "Hui, there's nothing more important than the love of those by your side."

Tony didn't say anything in the silence of death, only staying next to his master in that solemness.

After the death of Mrs. Wing Sing Tony finds his master has become more quiet than before.

Yet Tony knows that the death of Mrs. Wing Sing's death has deeply affected his master.

Soon in the year 1983 Ip Man passed away in a peaceful death, originally Tony predicted that his Master could live longer.

However, even if he could heal the sickness of the body he couldn't heal the pain of the heart.

And could only watch with sadness on the last day of Ip Man's life as the candle light slowly flickers away from the existence of the world.

With the death of his master Tony was also sent back to his old world, but he left an indelible legacy on this world.

Bruce Lee was sitting in a quiet room for a television interview.

The female interviewer says with a smile, "After you defeated the champion Muhammed Ali, people say you're the strongest martial arti-"

"No! The strongest is my Senior Hui," Bruce Lee interrupts stating.

The female interviewer asks in puzzlement, "Senior Hui?

With a smiling nod Bruce answers in a boastful manner, "Yes. My senior is Hui Liang."

The interviewer had a shocked expression, "Isn't Hui Liang the medical genius who cured cancer?!"

Shaking his head he answered, "Cancer is only a small accomplishment. You know this?"

Bruce Lee uses his fingers to jab in the air, performing a set of finger techniques that hit with lightning speed.

"Yes! Isn't that the finger hit that you used to defeat Ali?"

Bruce says with pride, "He taught me this finger technique that could even pierce through stones. Now that's true accomplishment!"

Bruce flicks his nose with his thumb up in a prideful manner, showing off his senior with pride.

Getting back to his original world Tony finds himself quite unaccustomed to the surroundings of the hotel room.

Since he lived in Hong Kong for many years he finds himself more used to that kind of familiar landscape.

Tony opened up the transparent panel and saw that the numbers seemed to be quite different.

Soul Power: 50

'System why is my Soul Power higher than before,' Tony asks.

'Reporting to Master, while you were in that world you had a spiritual breakthrough,' the System replied directly, 'so it caused an increase in your Soul Power.'

'Breakthrough?' Tony thought back to that day when he was about to shoot the Patriarch.

He felt like something that he held back in his heart was released as he stopped his hatred.

After updating his spirit in the transparent panel Tony feels that warm familiar sensation coursing throughout his body.

He could feel his thought process became faster than before and easier as he multitask between two lines of thought.

Soul Power: 60

He found many of the confusion from the medical research suddenly made sense and had many revelations that he's never thought before in the experiment room.

'Alright I'm ready for my next mission System,' he tells the System in his mind.

Tony sees the transparent panel appears in front of him:
