"Alright!"
Mo Qinglian's expression was cold. "I'd like to see how many moves you can withstand from me!"
Mo Zhengfeng didn't stop her. He looked at Qin Xuan, and a glint of light flashed in the depths of his eyes and then disappeared.
How could he not have doubted that Qin Xuan had ulterior motives? After all, Qin Xuan was just too young, only seventeen or eighteen years old, yet he claimed to possess extraordinary skills.
No one knew his injury better than himself. Even martial arts masters were at a loss about it, but Qin Xuan was so confident that he could cure it.
Moreover, it was impossible for someone at Qin Xuan's age to become an internal energy martial artist.
He had doubts, but he didn't voice them.
This was where Mo Zhengfeng's shrewdness lay. He wasn't afraid that Qin Xuan might harm him either. He was the head of the Mo family. If anything happened to him, not to mention Qin Xuan, even a martial arts grandmaster would have to pay a heavy price. What's more, Qin Xuan was just a young lad.
Mo Qinglian's arrival happened to give Mo Zhengfeng a chance to see what this Mr. Qin was capable of.
Qin Xuan just smiled without saying a word. He had already seen through Mo Zhengfeng's thoughts long ago, but he didn't care.
"Get ready. Don't cry when I beat you up later!" Mo Qinglian gritted her teeth, making a creaking sound.
"Do you always talk so much nonsense?" Qin Xuan said faintly.
"Brat!"
Mo Qinglian gave a sharp shout. She rushed towards Qin Xuan like a cheetah.
Her palms were like knives, cutting towards Qin Xuan with a fierce wind.
Qin Xuan smiled slightly. His feet seemed to take root, and he tilted his body.
The palm knives missed. Mo Qinglian's expression changed slightly. She swept out her palm, aiming directly at Qin Xuan's neck.
Bang!
There was a dull sound. Mo Qinglian's face looked a bit ugly. She just felt a sharp pain in her palm, as if she had chopped on a piece of steel.
Qin Xuan blocked the palm with his hand and said with a faint smile, "Is this all you've got?"
"Nothing special!"
With a shake of his arm, a powerful momentum burst out. Mo Qinglian's expression changed drastically, and she took several steps back, looking at Qin Xuan with suspicion and uncertainty.
She had only seen such momentum on her master before, and Qin Xuan's was even stronger.
How was it possible? How old was this kid?
Mo Qinglian was horrified in her heart and didn't dare to underestimate Qin Xuan anymore.
"Don't boast. Defeat me first!" Mo Qinglian said through gritted teeth.
"Defeat you?" Qin Xuan smiled faintly, with a calm expression. "All it takes is one finger!"
Qin Xuan made his move. He stretched out his index finger. In an instant, it seemed as if a flash of lightning passed over his finger.
At this moment, his seemingly weak body seemed as heavy as Mount Tai and as powerful as the God of Thunder.
"Be careful!"
Mo Zhengfeng's expression changed, and he shouted loudly.
Mo Qinglian was even more stunned. She felt that what was in front of her was no longer a human being but a god.
That finger was like a pillar reaching the sky, constantly enlarging in her pupils.
When she finally reacted, she felt a numbness at the spot where she was pointed. Her whole body went limp and she collapsed directly onto the ground.
Qin Xuan stood in front of her, looking down at her.
"Are you convinced?"
Mo Zhengfeng and Mo Yunyi were even more horrified, looking at Qin Xuan in disbelief.
On Mo Qinglian's chest, a burnt mark was extremely conspicuous, like a heavy hammer hitting the hearts of the two of them.
They knew that Qin Xuan had held back. Otherwise, that finger would have been enough to pierce through Mo Qinglian's heart.
"Mr. Qin, please show mercy!"
Mo Zhengfeng quickly walked forward, with a face full of awe.
That finger just now was truly terrifying. Even he couldn't have blocked it.
He finally understood how terrifying this young man in front of him was. Even among internal energy martial artists, he was definitely a master.
Mo Qinglian was even more dazed. She quickly came to her senses, struggled to get up, and was so ashamed that she wished she could find a crack in the ground to hide in.
She had mocked Qin Xuan many times before, but Qin Xuan had defeated her with just one finger.
The gap was just too big. If the other party hadn't shown mercy, how could she still be alive now?
Touching the small hole on her chest, Mo Qinglian finally realized that this young man in front of her was beyond her imagination. If her master had come here in person, there might have been a chance of winning.
Mo Qinglian bit her teeth, stood up, and said in a low voice, "Mo Qinglian... is convinced!"
How could she not be convinced? And how dare she not be?
Qin Xuan smiled and stood with his hands behind his back. His spiritual power returned to his dantian.
"Now, do you believe me?"
Qin Xuan asked with a half-smile.
"Yes, Mr. Qin is so extraordinary. How could I not believe you?" Mo Zhengfeng quickly replied. He helped Mo Qinglian sit down beside him, then bowed and said, "I'll leave my injury in your hands, Mr. Qin!"
As the head of the Mo family, he was now bowing to a young lad. If this were known to the outside world, or even the whole Linhai area, it would surely leave countless tycoons and big shots dumbfounded.
But now, this bow was from the bottom of his heart.
He picked up the medicine bowl and drank the medicinal liquid in one gulp. In an instant, his face turned red, and he just felt a burning sensation in his abdomen, as if a fire was burning inside.
"Sit cross-legged!"
A soft shout came from behind. Mo Zhengfeng immediately sat cross-legged on the ground.
The heat inside his body was like fire. Suddenly, he felt as if there was a palm on his back. A force as cool as water passed through, and wherever it went, the burning sensation disappeared completely.
This force circulated through all his meridians. Finally, it lingered at his kidneys for a moment and then suddenly disappeared.
When Mo Zhengfeng opened his eyes, he almost wanted to roar towards the sky. At this moment, his meridians were even wider. Not to mention the hidden injuries, his strength had even improved compared to before.
"This..."
Mo Zhengfeng was stunned when he sensed the situation inside his body.
He suddenly came to his senses and looked at Qin Xuan. "Mr. Qin, I'll never forget your great kindness!"
This injury had troubled him for decades. Now that it was finally cured, how excited Mo Zhengfeng was in his heart.
"Don't mention it."
Qin Xuan smiled faintly. "You need to rest quietly for a few days before you can fully recover."
Suddenly, Qin Xuan seemed to think of something. He frowned slightly and said, "However, when I was just healing your injury, I found that the cultivation method you practice is incomplete. It seems to have flaws."
"Mr. Qin knows about it?" Mo Zhengfeng was stunned. He had obtained this cultivation method by chance, and it was already a fragmented scroll when he got it.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have let Mo Qinglian become an apprentice of other internal energy martial artists.
"I'll help you complete it when I have time." Qin Xuan smiled. It was just a piece of cake for him.
At this moment, Mo Zhengfeng was even more excited.
"Thank you, Mr. Qin!"
"From now on, if Mr. Qin needs anything, I, Mo Zhengfeng, will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
Qin Xuan smiled and waved his hand. "I don't need your Mo family to do anything for me."
He motioned for Mo Zhengfeng to sit down and then asked about the current cultivation realms on Earth.
Since ancient times, martial arts had flourished in China. Moreover, there had been disputes between Buddhism and Taoism. In today's China, martial artists were divided into four realms: Internal Energy, Inner Force, Innate Realm, and Earth Immortal.
Earth Immortal meant being like an earthly god, with a long lifespan and astonishing supernatural powers. It was rumored that there was another realm above the Earth Immortal, but Mo Zhengfeng didn't know what it was.
"I see."
Qin Xuan smiled softly. His current low-level Qi Refining realm was already considered at the Internal Energy level in Mo Zhengfeng's eyes. Not to mention the countless supernatural powers in his mind. Perhaps when he broke through to the middle level, he should be regarded as an Inner Force martial artist, and the Earth Immortal realm was equivalent to the Golden Core realm.
After chatting for a while, Qin Xuan left. Mo Zhengfeng wanted to see him off in person, but Qin Xuan refused.
He wanted to go to the Mingxin Lake. It wasn't far from here, so there was no need for anyone to see him off.
Mo Zhengfeng looked at Qin Xuan's back and said to Mo Yunyi and Mo Qinglian, "Now you finally understand what 'Don't underestimate the water in a small pond. There may be a hidden dragon in the shallows' means, right?"
The two of them were silent and nodded vigorously.
They finally realized that there was always someone better and there was always a higher mountain. In this small Jing Shui City, there was actually such an extraordinary person.
Even in the whole Linhai area, this person was definitely an outstanding talent!
