Chapter 6:You Shouldn t blame me for being so good
Under the constant surveillance of the chief of the Mu clan,Tian Shuangmen remained in the great house .
However, during the first week, nothing had to be watched... because the young man did not let himself be seen for seven full days!
The servants of the family had instructions to assist him, but that was only to bring him food and nothing else...
The trays were placed at the side of the door and collected in the mornings completely empty... one of the advantages of being considered an eccentric cultivator, was that nobody interrupted Tian Shuangmen... which allowed him to concentrate even more on his studies...
With the volumes of the old Xu, the boy concentrated on studying their contents and getting to understand them so that he could understand the strange situation with his cultivation... without imagining that he would be immersed in a state of alienation that he did not realize...
So concentrated was he that a week passed before the morning of the seventh day...the same butler Feng and Mu Xiaoqi were present in the room sealed for the others...
The girl, who possessed a great sense of duty and filial love for her clan, saw in Tian Shuangmen a great help in making known the value of the Mu family.
And Feng...only saw him as a mercenary...the old man believed that the Mu clan would lower their level if they allowed an individual like this to participate in the great tournament...to make matters worse he was arrogant beyond measure, not showing himself to be honored for having been chosen as a representative...
Anyway, both of them showed up that morning to see how this young man intended to pay for the generosity of the Mu clan.
-Companion grower...it is possible that he may have entered into cultivation in isolation, however, as we do not feel any severe fluctuation of deep strength, my father...
-The chief of the Mu clan wants to know how recovered you are!...-the old butler came forward- I was told to remind you that the agreement is only fulfilled if you carry out your part of the deal!...
Since no one answered, the old butler clicked his tongue with a frown and Mu Xiaoqi smiled nervously...
In the eyes of both, this boy had little attachment to his life... because he did not understand that in a world where power reigned, not fulfilling expectations was enough to kill someone!
-Uncle Feng, what should we do?" asked the girl as a panic blossomed in her face, "with the wounds I am talking about... what if it had an adverse result or triggered her deep veins by accident?
The old man just snorts at her...
-Something tells me that even that boy is not so clueless as to detonate his deep veins by accident...-he answered as he opened the door and went inside...
The daughter of the clan chief imitated him, worried as she was about the boy's safety...before she and the old man took a step backwards!
Although the foul smell of sweat and confinement was part of the feeling of rejection that struck both growers...the amazing view of the walls, the ceiling, and even the floor reupholstered with hundreds of leaves was so unique that even they did not ask to contain the moan of amazement...
There was not a single place in the room where Tian Shuangmen had been housed that was free of these papers...except the one that slept badly on a large pile of them on the bed...
His hair was all tangled and loose over his face and it was the source of the unpleasant smell...!
.

.
.
The eccentric grower only woke up when he felt himself falling into the practically boiling water!
Suffocated and waking up in a bad way, Tian Shuangmen emerged gasping for air only to discover himself inside a big barrel in a room he had not seen before in all the time he had been in the Mu clan!
All around him, the only people present were the butler Feng and two other servants, all three of them watching him in amusement!
-I know you don't like me, however... it was necessary that the water was almost boiling..." the young man protested as he untied his clothes, which had not been removed from his body, and quickly took them off...
-Given the dreadful smell to which the lady was exposed, I think you have no right to complain, you savage..." the old man snarled as he dodged the bundle of wet clothes and hit the servant to his left.
Both servants obeyed and left as soon as Feng's words fell down, with the dirty clothes of Tian Shuangmen in their hands...
-Well...now could you explain why when I and Miss Xiaoqi found you, you were unconscious like that?...perhaps you possess a state that we do not know about and yet we are supporting you like this?
-Enough with that old man!...you can keep your inquisitive look!...my deal is with Mu Huanzhi...not with you!...
-The Mu family is taking you in with very clear intentions, you will respond to them!
-Of course I will, but not because you are ordering me to!...the deal is for me to represent the Mu clan and for you to investigate who killed my master!...as simple as that, and I don't think I have given you any reason to be on me at all times!...Don't think that because I was locked up I haven't felt your aura probing my room!
The old man's eyes opened wide.
When deep energy is used, it carries with it a great deal of consciousness...it was not uncommon for a grower to expand his sense into a certain area...however...even if the boy's story that he could not use his powers was a lie...it was unlikely that someone with a smaller crop than his could perceive when he was spied upon...
How could that boy know such a thing?
-Have you regained your mastery over your cultivation base?...didn't you say you would need at least three months?
Tian Shuangmen smiled. I had almost guessed that the old man would not apologize to him for spying on him at the moment he reproached him.
-I have not recovered all my power... however, now I have managed to project my deep strength... I boast happily... all week I have been studying the volumes on anatomy, medicine and cultivation that my teacher left me... and I have managed to understand the basic principles... thanks to that I have been able to manifest my deep energy.
-Even with that, even if you master your deep strength at this moment, you have managed to access your complete cultivation base... you can undo your limitations and demonstrate all the power you have...
Feng's words did not make a dent in Tian Shuangmen's optimism...but made him smile more...
-I haven't been able to...however I think I will be able to make it if I continue at this pace...the head of the clan will come...
-The lady went to look for him as soon as we saw you like that...for sure she will be curious to see how her bet goes...-responded the old man...while he was cursing underneath...
The boy was still bothering him when he could hear Mu Xiaoqi's voice approaching his father... long before they entered the room...
Mu Huanzhi's face looked serious as always, however there was a rather unusual flash of fun in his eyes...
In his hands he held a bunch of papers from the eccentric grower's room and Tian Shuangmen could swear that the man would laugh if he wasn't the way he was...
-Well, young Shuangmen?...my daughter and my butler say that they found you passed out...and since no doctor dares to come near you after what happened...I have nothing left but to believe in what you say...what happened?
From the water, the young man focused first on the girl and then on the mature man before smiling as when he was arguing with Feng.
-I completely immersed myself in a study session and...I often forgot to sleep...I guess when I finally relaxed that played against me...I'm sorry I worried you...
-I see for sure that you have been studying diligently...these summaries are quite incredible...
-But father...what's so special about them?...they're just too many...-said the girl as she looked at the confused sheets...
Mu Huanzhi finally showed an affable face and gave her the leaves to observe...
-He converted the theories of deep force, anatomy and medicine and simplified them...in addition to that, he made quite extensive tests to better understand the disciplines...if I had to put it in simple terms...if I want to initiate a grower, those leaves are enough to simplify and improve his understanding of the crop...
Feng would have eyes like plates and Mi Xiaoqi practically trembled when reading the leaves...
-I-It's true!...he did!...
Mu Huanzhi looked at the young man in the bathtub and made an affable gesture to him....
Although it might seem that cultivation depended on only a few factors, the reality was that constitution, latent talent, opportunity and self-understanding were essential things... for Tian Shuangmen, who knew absolutely nothing... he was lost from the beginning if he did not understand from the start what he was seeking to master...
Although it may seem unlikely to happen, there is no student who cannot learn a concept in a week of study...Tian Shuangmen just converted the situation to his current reality...
-Hohoho...you give me more and more confidence in you,Young Tian...
-I'm glad that's so...-he said as his eyes became a little more serious...may I ask if you have managed to discover anything about my teacher's killer?...
Mu Huanzhi's face changed a little at this point before he closed his eyes...
-Unfortunately not...the hut where you lived with your master was burned down, wasn't it?...
-That's right...I did it...however, I think you could detect more things than what is at first sight, isn't it?...
-I sent two elders of the clan in search of clues to start with...but they came back after a few hours with nothing else to bring some high purity medicines that were saved from the fire because they were in deep wooden boxes...
In this world, in order for the medicines to have effects that could be used for cultivation, they possessed a high quantity of deep energy from their elaboration... the preparation could generate ups and downs in quality... in this way the medicines catalogued as being of high purity were invaluable for the cultivators and therefore, it was not strange that they were kept in special boxes in order to avoid their power from decreasing...
Tian Shuangmen knew about this and yet, the only thing that surprised him was that the clan chief had sent two elders to investigate just for him...although this feeling soon passed.
Zhou Xuzi was a formidable cultivator...that he had been killed without any major problems indicated that whoever did it had equal or superior power...even if the old man had allowed himself to be killed...it was not strange to be so cautious...
-I understand...Major Mu, please accept these medicines as payment for your hospitality...
-Tch...we found them and you gave them to us...what kind of fool are you?...-bramo Feng, before before his astonished look, Mu Huanzhi will take them by the fists...
-I thank you for your gift, Young Tian... your master must be proud from the skies..." he said solemnly as he looked sideways at the old butler... a medicine made by the great white doctor is invaluable, you old fart!
-I apologize, master of the clan...this old me is stuck in age!...-bufo Feng as he felt the bile rise in his throat at the sight of the complacent smile on Tian Shuangmen's face...
-Actually...master of the clan...the boxes of those medicines...were a dark greenish color...right?
-That's right...because...
The boy smiled and stood against the wooden edge of the tub...
-If so...then those boxes contain pills for spiritual refinement and muscle repocision...would you like me to make more?
The question practically took the man by surprise, and he opened his eyes in astonishment, as did the girl and the old man there ....
The doctors and those who could make medicines were not many... that is why each one was treated with the maximum attention... that Tian Shuangmen proposed to make more, as the one who prepares it sounded at least surprising!
Even an apothecary would take more than four years of preparation and study to make medicines!
-This...fellow cultivator, not that I doubt his skills but, to propose to make medicines like these is a bit...
-Miss Mu...I have seen my teacher make these kinds of medicines over and over again...I don't intend to supply the whole clan...at least not in principle, I want to practice on a smaller scale and then increase the quantity...I understand that it is foolish to allow me to use your resources in that way...but I think I can benefit greatly from the cultivation of the younger generation if I help out on this occasion...
-The agreement was that you could stay and represent us in the tournament only if we helped discover your teacher's killer, boy...I think you are pulling too much of the strings!
Mu Huanzhi's face was meditative....
From the beginning and no matter how crazy it sounded, Tian Shuangmen was to his eyes a mystery quite loaded with surprises...and each one who manifested himself, did so under the appearance that it could be beneficial for his clan...there would be no empathy nor much less good will if the young man did not represent advantages as he did...however...at this point, an approach like this was another spoonful of sugar in the mouth...
A boy with a solid cultivation base emerges as if fallen from the sky...he possesses a unique cultivation body, this last one completely ignored by him...and besides that he demonstrates medical knowledge and offers himself to make medicines...
What he might want seemed very small compared to what he was paying for...!
-All right...
-Huh??!!...
-You can ask Feng for the resources you need...also feel free to go to me for help when you need it...however...I want Xiaoqi to assist you when you make medicine...-he added while smiling enigmatically...
Both the girl and the old man were surprised this time, but Tian Shuangmen just nodded his head.
Asking for things like he was doing probably wouldn't be possible with anyone else...putting his daughter close to him to watch him was the best way to control what he was doing...so he really didn't have any problems...
But,Mu Xiaoqi did have doubts about that...
The grower in whom she had placed so much hope had, at least on the surface, gained her father's trust very quickly... there was something in the middle of all this that she didn't understand!... and that doesn't please anyone who finds themselves in that situation!
Discreetly pulling on her father's sleeve...
-Father...is it necessary for me to assist you?...you have something in mind, right?...
-Ah...Xiaoqi...it's nothing you really need to worry about...it's bad for a parent to expect you to learn a thing or two from such an outstanding young man?
-But it's just that....
-You don't have to worry about me biting you, Miss Mu...-I smile Tian Shuangmen from the tub-...I promise not to bother you any more than I have to...
Before the promise...both she and the old butler looked at the boy's eyes...as if they were seeing him for the first time...
-Well...whatever you need you can ask for it after you finish sanitizing yourself and eat something...young Tian...I will retire...
Mu Huanzhi had not taken two steps when Tian Shuangmen called him again...
-To tell the truth I have another request, Major Mu....
Later...
-Are you really...really sure about this?...I ask for the eighth time the girl...visibly nervous...do you really want to fight now?...
Tian Shuangmen rubbed his nose...
I need to get used to the feeling of combat...it's very difficult to know what will happen...but this is not a full-blown fight either....it's just a training session...-she said before smiling...-do you care about me?
-Large sister Xilei is not what you call nice in combat...she always goes with everything...especially with you!...
The boy stopped and turned to see the girl...
After his bath and eating something, he prepared to go to the training camp of the younger generation...
The request he had made to Mu Huanzhi had been a companion with whom to practice a little bit his notions of combat...as I said, Sebastian had no idea how to fight beyond the crude type of combat used in certain events, such as when leaving a discotheque or a bar...therefore, even if he had managed to learn the notions of deep strength and medicine...he still could not ignore how to fight!
The clan leader happily agreed to his request and said the name of who would be his partner almost immediately...
Mu Xilei had previously been part of the family team with Mu Xiaoqi and Mu Daoyun, her cousins on her father's side...however...with the arrival of an upstart who was not even a member of the family, she had been displaced for the time being...
With this, Tian Shuangmen discovered something, Mu Huanzhi was adept at putting it to the test constantly.
-I haven't decided anything..." he said aloud as he looked Mu Xiaoqi straight in the eyes, taking advantage of the moment of loneliness in which they were... "If Miss Xilei dislikes me, it's not my problem... I just need to use her as a training doll!
-You sound too cruel, brother Tian...this is serious!...
-Ahhh you already call me brother...how adorable...-I smile as he puts his hand on the door of the field
-At this point it is better that we get acquainted otherwise it would be too rude to continue being indifferent...-resolved Mu Xiaoqi while he was following him.
Tian Shuangmen just rivered down as he pushed the door and entered...
The sight of a dozen young men of the clan, with their blue dresses, completely attentive to the old instructor who was directing the training... who turned around practically at the same time when they saw him, received him when he entered the esplanade...
-Ah!...they have arrived!...Miss Xiaoqi...young Tian...for a moment I was worried that they would not arrive...-expressed the instructor while smiling kindly...
Although he looked as old as Feng, this old man possessed an aura of willing kindness...somewhat different from Zhou Xuzi, who seemed to be infinitely wise...
-Elder Qinchen... I am grateful that you allowed Brother Tian to use his time in class for training..." said the girl as soft murmurs were heard from the other young men...
-Please don't mention it...it was a request from the clan master after all...-relief while focusing on Tian Shuangmen-...it is a pleasure, young cultivator...my name is Mu Quinchen, I am the ninth elder of the Mu clan...
-Oh!...you were one of those who discovered the lost medicine!...the master of the clan has told me about you...-I greet the boy while he is extending his fists-...I will be in your care today...
The old man of the clan rubbed his chin in an enigmatic way while he seemed to silently evaluate the young man, before turning towards the mass of students...
-Pay attention!...the young man next to our lady, is the eccentric cultivator who will represent our Mu family branch before the main one in the capital!...I comment with a powerful voice...he has recently recovered from some wounds and needs to practice his fighting style again...having said that...I think it is an excellent occasion for you to observe a meeting in which one of the parties is at a disadvantage!...
-Eh?...
-Xilei!...take a step forward!...- shouted the man, while the contingent of students practically opened in two!...
The woman who advanced towards them, even though she was supposedly the same age as Xiaoqi, her way of moving showed her to be incredibly more mature, she would be and cold than the jovial girl!
In the typical blue clothes of the clan, a beauty of ice approached at a slow pace, practically without sound on the rocky ground...
The features of her face were perfectly asymmetrical and her skin seemed to be a pure jade... white as the snow that had just fallen from the sky, which became striking with the black tone of her eyes, eyebrows and hair, not to mention the almost pinkish shade of her tempting mouth...
His body was slender and enjoyed a mature beauty, different from the youthful charm of Xiaoqi's movements, as it was like watching an hourglass when looking at his generous curves.
Even the characteristic print of the Mu clan, which was a mythological beast of some kind that Tian Shuangmen could not recognize, was deformed by the pressure of her bust against her clothes, tight and about to explode.
Such a woman would only be gazed at under the spell of such beauty, and many looked at her like that as she passed by, yet in Tian Shuangmen's eyes, a gleam of displeasure could be seen...
This girl... had pride to the core... could not be perceived in her face, because the serious expression was cold, but in her walk, as if she despised having to walk to where they were was notorious, besides that there is a flash of disdain in her eyes when she looked at the great amount of young people who were watching her with longing...
-Ah well...-commented the old Quinchen while he nodded-...today you will help the young Tian to practice some movements, right?
She looked at Tian Shuangmen a little bit before smiling almost imperceptibly in a mocking way...
-Old man...wouldn't that be a little unfair?
A grimace of disbelief blossomed on Xiaoqi's face, a flash of curiosity emerged from the old man's eyes and various smiling faces were seen in the students, as soon as Mu Xilei's soft cottony voice fell...
Although Tian Shuangmen's face remained unchanged...he still smiled politely and asked...
-Why would it be unfair, big sister Xilei?
The soft woman seemed to have disliked the name, but still answered
-My base of cultivation is established in the great circle between the Deep Kingdom of Settlement and the Deep Kingdom of Boom...you really need an explanation of why it would be unfair...
Mu Xilei was certainly a cultivator who had been selected for the cult tournament...it was not illogical that she was stronger than Xiaoqi herself...
As such, it was absurd for a newly opened man to attempt to cross blows with someone in the great circle with such simplicity...in fact, the only reason the students allowed him to be there was the order of the clan master...
The only ones aware of the young man's rare farming situation were the old man Quinchen and Mu Xiaoqi herself... the former possessed curiosity with a good deal of respect...
And although the leader of the family's orders were to grant her anything she asked for, Mu Xilei was still not willing to allow a simple piece of trash to steal her place from where she could make a name for herself and her clan...that is why she was so willing to despise him...as much as she could and as much as was allowed...she was sure that the upstart in front of her had played some trick in front of the head of the family...
In fact the smile on her red lips became more perfidious as she continued...
-I understand that these are the orders of the master of the clan...but what happens if I hurt you...or accidentally kill you....... would you blame this older sister...-I ask with a hint of derision...
-Large Sister Xilei!...-exclamed Mu Xiaoqi-...how dare you be so dismissive of Brother Tian?...don't you know that the master of the clan was the one who ordered that...?
-This well, big sister Xiaoqi...-relief Tian Shuangmen while a satisfying smile appeared on the face of old Quinchen-...the fears that big sister Xilei may have are well founded...asking her to restrain herself by being so strong should not be something completely reliable right?
-You are right brother Tian...I didn't mean to sound unpleasant...I was just worried about what might happen to your friend if for some reason...
-I was just worried about what would happen to your friend if for some reason...
The kind way of saying the boy's things, did not leave out any attempt to despise her as an answer to her previous attempt...however, her words only made grow the contempt Mu Xilei felt towards him...
-Hohoho!...this young man has good marrow, that pleases me!...-the old man laughed, as he disappeared with an exhalation and reappeared instantly on a nearby balcony...everyone else move aside and give me some space!...
After the order, even Mu Xiaoqi stepped aside and stood right next to the old man...
She knew that this should only be a training, however, taking into account the character of those involved, something would certainly happen...
And while she was thinking like this, in the esplanade, where only Mu Xilei and Tian Shuangmen were left just a few meters apart... the silence was total...
With the seven days he had spent studying to control his deep energy...the boy had learned to restrict the deep impact completely, there was no further aura or energy left over...so the strength the girl perceived from him was that of an open level 3...however, given the great amount of energy he had to work with, the notion of having the power of a high level 3 did not sound so incredible either...
Anyway...as much as she was trying to focus her powers on the person in front of her...Mu Xilei could not perceive more than the power of an openness!
"Did he use some deep illusionary technique?...that way he won over the clan chief and Xiaoqi?...not...an artifact!...he sure used some magic artifact to appear stronger than he possessed!...however...because he would ask for training! ?...this doesn't make any sense to me...don't hate me, Tian Shuangmen!...I tried to be patient and benevolent in giving you indulgence...I hinted at the dangers and yet you decided to be reckless!...even though your courage is commendable...I will give you some face!
Although she appeared to be cold and would be on the outside, that was only on the outside...in fact, Mu Xilei was quite similar to Xiaoqi...her whole proud and haughty exterior was nothing more than a facade that fell with quite a lot of difficulty...or a certain push...
In any case, just as Mu Xilei's head was scheming on the method to gain the trust of the clan's head... Tian Shuangmen was also going through the same thing... only focused on another matter...
"The old man disappeared?!...did he do the teleportation?...no...it's very unlikely...is that his speed?...I definitely have to learn to move like this!...this girl...she's infinitely unpleasant!...it doesn't matter that she has the biggest bust I've ever seen!...I definitely can't let myself get hit too much by her!...who knows?...maybe give her a few punches maybe!..."
The old Quinchen closed his eyes, ready to entertain himself for a moment...when he stretched forward...
-Good! ...begin!...
At the command, Tian Shuangmen tensed his legs and began to run as fast as he could towards Mu Xilei!
A cultivator in the great circle between the kingdoms of the Settlement and the Boom, could definitely take the first blow...besides, he did not say that he could hurt or kill him by mistake...
In the eyes of any ordinary human being, the speed of Tian Shuangmen could only be described as incredible!
With every stride he took, the distance shortened dramatically!...yet...in the eyes of Mu Xilei...
-You are too slow!...-bufo while keeping his face completely neutral, he extended an arm and a finger just as the boy's body entered his range!...
Invested with deep strength, that simple gesture traveled with icy wind and celestial light, directly to the head of the young man!
Tian Shuangmen's eyes shrank to the size of a pinhead, when in slow motion he saw her thin finger approaching!
I didn't want to kill him!...I wanted to hurt him!...the feeling again reminded him of that obnoxious Cephirah who had long wanted to use him as a toy!...
Feeling a tingling sensation running through her body, she snorted long before she could do herself any great harm and pushed back, trying to avoid losing an eye!
He landed heavily and punishing his knees against the ground, feeling the icy spasm that came from his left cheekbone, as much as it was scorching because of how close he had been to Mu Xilei's finger!
-I don't know what great things the chief of the clan will notice to allow himself to do these things... but you are not a great cultivator!..." I exclaimed quietly while I focused on the boy in a dazed state from the ground, with a cut under his eye that was somewhat frosty and had provoked him.
Tian Shuangmen got up covering his wound on his face and looked at the deranged girl...
It was clear that he had attacked like a common man and without any kind of culture... that completely disregarded everything he had said!
-I wanted to see if you were as ruthless as you seemed," he answered lying, as he rubbed the area of her frozen face. "Shit, this burns, so I have to use the deep energy at all times..." ...plus...there's the matter of my wounds...the damage that was inflicted on me not only affected my base of cultivation...it also altered my memories...and almost dismembered my body...I need to know the difference between the realms and the capacity for combat...
Mu Xilei contorted his face while Tian Shuangmen spoke more...
A blow that alters like that...sounds like something a grower from beyond the Deep Kingdom of the Golden Core could do!...
It made no sense at all that an open-minded person would receive such a blow and continue to live with only a little clumsiness in his body!
-There are only three things I hate in this world!...to be treated like a fool, to be lied to, and to try to belittle me!...I don't know why but you seem to be trying to do all three at the same time!...do you really want me to believe that you got hit by a grower in the Golden Core and survived?
-It's really not the case, big sister Xilei...I mean about lying to you...about the other thing I have no way of knowing...I was in a coma for three days you know...
-Enough!...do you want to know the difference between the realms and their capabilities?...I will show you!...
At this point, Mu Xilei advanced visibly angry at the ineptitude and ignorance of Tian Shuangmen...
Unpredictably she had decided to forget about the indulgence she would have and advanced at full speed!...
Like a ghost, taking short, silent steps on the ground, she moved at a dramatic speed!...as if her body were made of wind, she all came quickly to Tian Shuangmen!...who could only see her for an instant before everyone around her spun around and lost gravity for a second!...
-....Deep Displacement Technique!...Fugitive Cloud Pass!...-Voice, before the boy's body crashed into the far wall of the esplanade, several meters away from where it was initially...
-Big sister Xilei!...-exclamed Mu Xiaoqi,scared of what she had seen-...a kick to the head does not count as part of a training!...you were too vicious!...
-Hoo?...Lei'er increased her use of the technique I taught her!...she's a genius!...I praise the old Quinchen, apparently indifferent about what happened while he was rubbing his chin!...
Young Xilei, on the other hand, felt sorry for a moment!...and if she was telling the truth about her wounds?
In a world where there were so many powerful beings... nothing was truly impossible... however... the possibility that something like this would happen was also unlikely!
Just remembering his previous clumsy movements quickly eliminated those thoughts from Mu Xilei...
Breathed in furiously one last time...she turned around ready to leave...however...
-Big sister Xilei!...where are you going?...-I call Tian Shuangmen from the other side of the esplanade, calling the attention of all the spectators...well a kick to the head and at that speed...should have simply knocked him out!...
-You're still conscious?...
-Yes!...-he answered cheerfully while shaking his clothes-...I learn a lot from this little fight!...please don't go!...
The almost innocent tone on his part, marked a muscle in his beautiful wide forehead...
-He's pretty tough...a kick like that would have broken my bones at that level of cultivation...however, being a good punching bag is not something to be praised...-a dismissive comment from a student...
-Bah...he just got up again...it's not like he could fight...-complete another one...
The truth was that although Tian Shuangmen possessed the sense of pain, he felt it only in the area where it was generated and only there...it was not related to the pain that spread through the nervous system and prevented him from thinking clearly...even... while flying in the air,he still had time to listen carefully to the name of the technique Mu Xilei had used!...this particular advantage allowed him to stay lucid and concentrated...at this moment,he only felt his jaw a little numb...something easily ignored!
-So that's it...then...what did you learn?...I ask irritably as she turned around and confronted the boy again...
Tian Shuangmen sighed and raised a finger...
-I learned that... if a blow comes, I must not close my eyes!
Fuuuoossshhh!!!...
Mu Xilei again moved, even faster than before and brought a brutal blow to the temple of the young man!...whose body turned in the air and crashed against another wall of the esplanade!...
-Do you take me for a fool?...-I shout out loud, as I watch the dust from the rubble settle-...you are making fun of all the growers and the Mu family by allowing yourself to clown around here!...
-Heh! I really made you angry, huh?" asked Tian Shuangmen as she stood up again. "You should know that when I want to joke, you will be the first to know!
-You! ....
-Xilei!...-Called Quinchen, smiling as he seemed to look nowhere-...stay calm...it doesn't do you any good...
-But?..great old man!...this guy is a disgrace to the cultivation!...
-You shouldn't disdain everything simple...what the young Tian understood is not illogical...in high speed battles it is necessary not to miss a second...a slight distraction can cost us everything...everything returns to its initial state for how much higher scales, Xilei...don't forget...even we living beings return to our most basic forms to evolve...
-Right...-Tian Shuangmen smiled as he dropped his arms and tried to relax as much as possible while concentrating-... "The old man does not lie....this time...I saw it...it was an instant...but I saw it clearly...I have to get used to its speed...I have to stretch the seconds, and if I do, I can give it a hit!...although it is a little funny to see it move at that speed, everything bounces!
Mu Xilei frowned and looked again at the simple open person who had resisted two of his blows without being unconscious or hurt...before clenching his fists...
-L- Big sister Xilei will go with all her strength!...
-Eh?!...really?!...although it is incredible that he will not remain unconscious, now he is going to die...!
The young cultivator finally manifested all her deep strength, blurred as she was by being taken by an ear by a simple opening, with all her curved body shining in deep blue...
-You wanted to see me angry!?...well!...don't complain then!...
-You will finally come with everything?...-commented Tian Shuangmen, visibly provocative-...go ahead!...
The girl roared and threw a flash with her whole body before speeding up in the distance fading into a ray of celestial light!...
There was not even a trace of the icy, haughty or proud woman of the beginning, now there was only a furious battle beast that had attacked Tian Shuangmen!
The boy only managed to cover himself with his arms before the first heavy impact!
With the strength and speed of Mu Xilei combined, all his attacks were fearsome!
After the first blow, she continued to move in the area in such a way and speed that it was enough to surround Tian Shuangmen with consecutive impacts, making him look like a sad puppet manipulated by a fierce storm that shook him from here to there!
-The fact that an open person receives so many blows from someone like Lei'er in this way and does not even lose his mind is incredible... which leads me to think that he was not lying, unfortunately... if he is not able to return the fire, that means that he still has a long way to go before he can heal completely... do you think, Miss, that you should stop them? Quinchen asked while he saw the zigzagging gust that was Mu Xilei, and the doll dragged by the icy air that was Tian Shuangmen...
Mu Xiaoqi did not answer...
"I am seeing her!..."-he thought, while he was able to ignore the pain and saw more and more in slow motion how Mu Xilei was moving around him!...
From where I was and without closing my eyes, I could see every movement and step she made!...like this and in this way...she was not so fast!...in fact!...the more I looked at her, the slower she became!...
At this point, tired of the bursts of high-speed punches, Tian Shuangmen opened his arms wide!
With the gesture, a moderate shock wave with the icy wind of Mu Xilei forced her to stop in dry while confronting him in a daze...
Perhaps an openness had managed to dissipate its deep energy ...
In her eyes, more and more questions appeared, as she noticed how an invisible pressure began to emerge from her body!...it was a pressure that quickly became denser and denser!...it did not carry the impression of a cultivated base, since this was still that of an openness, but this pressure was in no way inferior to her own!...the strength of a high!...
-You... who are you?...there is no way you can be open!...-bufo incredulous...however...Tian Shuangmen just turned around...
-I have finished learning what I needed!...I will assimilate it in the next few days and then I will return!...I tell the old man on the balcony, before he turns to greet Mu Xilei and smile... thanks to you too,big sister Xilei...thanks to you I have learned a lot...let's play another day!...
A gleam of bewilderment shone in her eyes as she watched the man in front of her leave...
-Sister Xiaoqi...we are leaving...I will take another shower and then start making medicine...will you come with me...
Eh?...ah!...yes...let's go!...-mussy the girl as she descended stepping on the air from the balcony...a bit self-conscious as she thanked the strangely satisfied old man and the surprised silent students...
Few had apparently been able to understand what had happened and those who were watching the young duo leave the training area in peace!
Mu Xilei was part of those who had not understood anything!...
-Wait!...you can't leave!...tell me what you learned!...it doesn't make sense!...you come, you make me hit you and then you understand things?!...are you stupid?...
Tian Shuangmen turned around...and smiled at him nicely
-That wouldn't be unfair?
-Eh?...
-Your cultivation is situated in the great circle between the Deep Kingdom of Settlement and the Deep Kingdom of Boom... you really need me to explain to you why it would be unfair?
Sour Bile climbed up Mu Xilei's throat as she remembered the mocking words she had dedicated to him at the beginning of everything...without imagining that he would use those same words to ridicule her!...
-The younger brother Tian came to train with you...exchanging pointers, and from the beginning you scorned and attacked him viciously...and although because of that he managed to understand important things for him...the fact that now you want him to explain those same things understood with effort really makes it unfair...-Mu Xiaoqi mentioned enough...
Besides, the fact that an open-minded person like me has to explain those things to someone so talented that like you...really makes it a little bit regrettable...
As soon as his words had fallen when a sharp metallic screech almost burst the eardrums of the students present!
At a speed that no one had ever imagined, Mu Xilei had wielded a silver sword with lines of fluorescent jade and had cut straight into Tian Shuangmen's neck!
The speed so abrupt had generated a small whirlwind in the esplanade and the squeak had been produced because the sword had met all the fingers of the young cultivator's left hand!...
The blade of the weapon had cut the flesh and reached the bone... however, it had not advanced an inch more!...it was only a slightly bleeding wound!...
However, the most surprising thing was that he had managed to block the attack in time!...he had even had the time to get Mu Xiaoqi out of the line of attack!
Tian Shuangmen's somewhat smiling face was confronted by Mu Xilei's incomparably cold and serious frown!
-Do you want me to kill you?...where did you get so many guts?...
-Big sister Xilei...my comment certainly did not deserve an assassination attempt like this one!...-smiley answer-...if you want me to explain so much, I will gladly do it!...
Retracting his hand from the body of the blade, Tian Shuangmen moved his right palm and hit the sword with all his strength, surprisingly pushing the whole body of the woman back!
However, Mu Xilei activated her displacement technique again and quickly disappeared from sight between beams of light...
To the normal eye, the woman was now just a ghost leaving residual images behind,... however, the young cultivator had not moved from his initial position, with only his eyes moving around the place!...
-The first thing you taught me!...is that while my eyes are still open, I see everything!...-exclamation Tian Shuangmen, turning back abruptly and dodging the blade of the sword he had stabbed into her shoulder!...
Mu Xilei snapped his tongue and grunted, pulling his arm and cutting to one side, towards the waist of the young cultivator...but, just as he was about to cut, there was a burst and he successfully moved several meters back, without being hurt!
-The second thing... is that I have a fairly large reserve of energy, and as such I must use it continuously in order to improve my physical abilities!
Mu Xilei's eyes were injected with blood when he saw such a trusting trash that just seemed to get faster again!...
But, this time, Tian Shuangmen even imitated her as they moved at full speed along the esplanade!...
You could see residual images of both of them everywhere followed by the sounds of Mu Xilei's weapon cutting through the air!...
-Incredible!...an opening with the same speed as big sister Xilei?!.
-It is absurd!...-I call for another student!...
-At last I can see the same as the chief of the clan...-the old man Quinchen was playing with the seat and watching the fight comfortably!...
Now the speed of the young cultivator was only a little lower than Mu Xilei's, but it was still enough to dodge her attacks!...of course, he was not yet as neat to move and in fact he generated small bursts on the rock, but even she had to recognize that no one had managed to imitate her so quickly!...
-And the last thing!...-Music, with a different smile from the previous ones, even perverse-...was that every time she attacked...it must be with the intention of killing...SO!...
The pressure that Tian Shuangmen became so unbearable for Mu Xilei that she was irremediably forced to retreat in a backward leap!
However, as soon as she did so, for a millisecond, she lost sight of her opponent...before turning around to her back and looking up!
There followed the young grower's Machiavellian smile, before he still launched a punch from the air at the girl with all the pressure her body was exerting!
The blow passed so close to her jaw that even Mu Xilei considered himself lucky when he reacted and jumped backwards again!...falling to his knees!
The impact of the blow then fell directly to the ground and traced a ditch at least three meters long by one and a half meters deep!...cruelly shattering the rock!...
The blow had been such that a great cloud of dust had been raised and to this, Tian Shuangmen found it incredible, as he would never have imagined that a blow from him would make such a havoc!...it was at this point that the bitter week of studying seemed to have been worthwhile!...even everything that had happened in that world seemed valuable to him, for allowing him to do something like what he had done!...
Looking at the lump on the ground that was Mu Xilei, he stood up and smiled happily!
-I hope that you have understood your valuable lessons and that I am grateful for your help," he said, agitated as he checked the cuts on his hand and the scratches on his torso, because even if he had managed to match the speed, he still could not defend himself from some friction.
However... while he was feeling happy about his victory... the woman's trembling voice reached him...
-I understood..." he asked, as she slowly stood up... "I understood that you are a filthy pig!
-Eh?...-I ask in a daze, before the dust dissipates enough to see her...
Mu Xilei found herself standing, blushing mortally and about to cry, clutching her sword with one hand, while with the other she tried by all means to keep her huge bust covered, in reality it seemed to stick out the more she pressed it against her...
The accident that could seem comical could actually seem such a danger to Sebastian...that he only hit his palm with his fist...
-I see...the moment I hit you from the air, when you stood back, you did not avoid it at all, because I managed to tear your clothes...-I reason quickly-...big sister Xilei, it was an accident please...you can't blame me for being so good...right?
