Chapter 167
“The old man really didn’t expect Ye Lu to be able to resist to this level, he had just checked Ye Lu, he found that all the meridians in Ye Lu’s body were open, the Ren and Du veins were open, according to him, Ye Lu should be a strong Dark Energy practitioner.
However, he did not feel the presence of true qi in Ye Lu’s body, which was why he had asked Qian Sha to use first gear to begin with.
“Boom!”
Another powerful punch landed on Ye Lu’s stomach.
This time, Ye Lu was shaken by the blow, but he had used his aura to make a low gear in advance, so it didn’t hurt him much, but it really hurt a bit.
Finding that “four gears” had not knocked Ye Lu down, even the old man was surprised.
“I didn’t expect you to be so resistant! Come on then, ‘Strengthened Fourth Gear’.”
When he heard the old man say something about “enhanced fourth gear”, Ye Lu immediately had a bad feeling, he felt that he might be unlucky.
Sure enough, that Chisha took out a pair of metal gloves and put them on her hands.
Following that, after the glow lit up, she smiled and punched Ye Luo in the stomach.
“Ouch! I go!”
This one did hit Ye Lu enough, followed by another punch, and the successive attacks knocked Ye Lu to the ground.
“Hee hee! Are you dead yet?”
Chisha said with a smile as she looked at Ye Luo.
Ye Luo waved his hand with difficulty and said.
“No…… nothing major, still alive.”
Following that, he slowly climbed up.
Seeing Ye Lu crawl up and move his arms and thighs, and actually shake his head and stand there again, the old man and Qian Sha looked at each other both showed an expression of disbelief.
“Thank you for being merciful, but can we stop fighting, this seems to be quite pointless.”
As a result the old man raised his hand instead and said.
“Wrong! As the saying goes, ‘to learn to hit someone you have to learn to take a beating first’, so that you can know how you should hit others, come on, next, you hit me and I’ll see how strong you are.”
Hearing that he was going to hit this old man, Ye Luo hurriedly waved his hand and said.
“No, no need, Master, I am here to learn how to fight better, you can just teach me this.”
As a result, the old man said majestically.
“Since you have joined my martial school, you should obey me in everything, are you the teacher or am I the teacher?”
Ye Lu nodded and said.
“You are.”
Hearing Ye Luo finish, the old man stood up and took a few steps forward and said.
“Come on, young man, use your full strength to hit me, I’ll see what your limit is.”
When he heard that he had to use his full strength, Ye Lu shook his head once again and said.
“I’d rather not, I’m afraid I’ll hurt you.”
As a result, the old man said disdainfully.
“To think that I, Dokgo Ao, have been traversing the jianghu for decades, only I have hurt people, no one has hurt me, you little doll actually said you were afraid of hurting me, what a joke, come on.”
Seeing this old man’s serious look, Ye Lu nodded, but still persuaded again.
“You’d better use your true qi to lower your gear, otherwise I’m really afraid of hurting you.”
Because he noticed that the old man came to exude none of his true qi and looked like he was trying to resist his blow hard.
As a result, the old man glared and said.
“So much nonsense, use all your strength to fight, or I’ll expel you from the division.”
However, after thinking about it, Ye Lu did not use the “Candle Dragon Finger”, which was the only martial art he had, as the information showed that the old man was an expert at the peak of the “Pulse Raising Realm” and was the strongest person Ye Lu had seen so far.
So, he put all his aura into his right fist, and then punched the old man’s stomach with all his strength.
“Clang!”
Ye Lu felt that the old man’s stomach was actually as hard as steel making a clanging sound, and what surprised him even more was that the old man’s body actually did not move at all, as solid as a rock.
“Ooh!”
This made Ye Lu astonished, this old man didn’t wear any protective clothing and armor, nor did he use his true qi to fight against it, he actually withstood this blow easily, really strong.
So, Ye Luo said in admiration.
“Your old man is really too strong, the strongest expert I’ve ever seen.”
For his part, the old man calmly waved his hand and said.
“Good, not bad, I suddenly have something to take care of, I’ll be back as soon as I go.”
With that the old man turned and walked back into the inner room through clenched teeth.
Upon walking in he spat out a mouthful of blood and then grimaced and covered his stomach.
“It’s too weird, there’s actually something so evil, what kind of power is this infiltration, it actually really injured me, I should have known that I would have used my power to defend myself, no, I must not let that boy see it.”
He said as he looked for water to wash his face, then looked at the blood on his chest to change another set of clothes.
Outside, Ye Lu was still in shock, he knew that a “Pulse Raising Realm” expert should be very strong, but he didn’t expect it to be this strong.
After another two minutes, Dokgo Ao came out with a majestic face and said.
“Although I don’t know what kind of gongfu you cultivate, your strength is still considered sloppy, however, your strength is still too weak, you still have to work harder if you want to hurt old man’s ‘Incorruptible Golden Body’.”
Hearing this old man say that his strength was still weak, Ye Lu thought for a moment and said.
“Master, in fact, I was actually just using my strength to attack, why don’t you try my martial art once more, I will definitely break Teacher’s Unbreakable Golden Body this time, I won’t let Teacher down.”
The old man immediately frowned and thought to himself, “Come again, and don’t let me down, you’re trying to screw me over, I think I’d better forget it, so he quickly waved his hand and said.
“Forget it, forget it, I already know your weight, I officially accept you as a disciple, but don’t try to hit the idea of martial skills, all martial skills are not to be pa*sed out.”
Ye Lu smiled and said.
“This is natural, I just need to learn the fighting techniques.”
The old man nodded and then said.
“Good then, I won’t charge you for the tuition fees, as the dragon girl has already paid it, still, if you want to learn to fight you have to learn to take a beating first, come on, fight me and use your strongest stance.”
Ye Lu smiled and said.
“Okay!”
After saying that he swung his fist towards Doku Ao and attacked.
“Boom!”
Then, he was kicked out by Doku Ao’s big foot, and he “bang!” He crashed into the far wall.
“Oops! Holy Sh*t!”
He finally realized that although he had four strands of aura in his body, the difference between him and Dokku Ao was still very obvious, and he finally understood that if it wasn’t for the “Candle Dragon Finger” that had deterred Long Fei yesterday, the fight might not have been that easy.
Of course, Long Fei and Dokku Ao were not the same, as Long Fei was only a practitioner at the early stage of the “Pulse Raising Realm”, while Dokku Ao was a practitioner at the peak of the “Pulse Raising Realm”, and was just one step away from the “God Harmony Realm”, with two small stages in between, the “Middle” and “Late” stages.
Gritting his teeth, Ye Lu climbed up and walked back to Doku Ao’s face.
Seeing that Ye Lu had not been knocked unconscious, Dokku Ao nodded in satisfaction, while his granddaughter Dokku Qian Sha spat playfully, made a pose of praying to the heavens, and then turned and ran away.
Doklam Ao looked at Ye Lu and said.
“That kick just now was to show you that ‘the only martial art in the world is fast’, as long as you are fast enough, the opponent will only be beaten no matter what they know, so, next I will officially teach you the moves, come again.”
Ye Lu nodded, then used his fastest speed and strength to lunge forward again, only to be sent flying by another big kick from Doku Ao.
“Woori, what’s this again?”
Ye Luo climbed up again somewhat depressed, after being punched twice, he felt his stomach start to turn over a bit.
“This kick is to show you that strength is actually important too, enough strength can do ‘one power down’, no matter what he can do, one punch will cripple him.”
Ye Lu nodded once again, then slowly walked up to Doktor.
“Well, just twice was actually to impress you, this time we’re really officially getting into the training of stances, you do it.”
Ye Lu nodded and once again rushed forward.
As a result, he was kicked out again by Doku Ao, and this time he “Wow!” This time he threw up all over the floor, throwing up his breakfast.
“Why this time?”
He asked, sitting in the corner and looking at Dokgo Ao.
As a result Doktor said majestically.
“This kick is to tell you that since it’s a fight, no matter what the other guy’s bullSh*t is, don’t believe him, only ‘kick the Sh*t out of him’ is the hard way, get up, next we’ll do the training of the stances.”
This time Ye Lu didn’t get up right away, because he suddenly understood why Doku Ao’s martial arts school had opened in this Sh*tty state, and at the same time he had some doubts whether he would still be able to go back alive.
Chapter 168
So, Ye Luo stood up and walked forward while asking Dokgo Ao.
“Senior, you might as well just say it plainly, do I still have a chance to leave here alive today?”
As a result, Dokgo Ao looked at Ye Lu and smiled for the first time, then nodded and said.
“Looks like you finally understand this point then, the most important point I have to say is that only the test of life and death can make a qualitative breakthrough for a person, so if you want to fight, the most most most important thing is three words ‘not afraid of death!’ , otherwise you will never learn how to fight, come on! I’ll teach you about the moves.”
This time, Dokgo Ao did not go back on his word, he was really teaching Ye Lu moves, but all Ye Lu got was a violent beating.
He finally understood the difference between someone who could fight and someone who couldn’t. Dokgo Ao controlled his speed and strength similarly to Ye Lu, but abusing Ye Lu was like an old man playing with a baby, no matter how much Ye Lu swung his fists and kicked his legs, he couldn’t hit Dokgo Ao a single time, while he himself was constantly being F**ked over.
In fact, Dokgo Ao was also secretly amazed, he also did not expect Ye Lu to be so resistant to beatings, just like an undead little strong man or a rat in a ditch, with super tenacious vitality and will.
“Maybe this kid really deserves a good lesson.”
After once again kicking Ye Luo away with a swinging leg, Dokgo Ao also began to make calculations in his mind.
Just like that, Ye Lu was beaten all morning and finally lay there unable to get up.
“Alright, that’s it for today’s lesson, come back to me when you feel ready to start the next lesson.”
Doktor turned around and walked back after he finished.
Ye Luo slumped for a few more minutes before he staggered up with difficulty and walked towards the outside of the martial arts school.
“Pfft!”
He spat out a mouthful of blood, then muttered darkly.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve been beaten up like this.”
He thought back, the last time he had been beaten up like this was the night he got his gla*ses, when he had been beaten up furiously by Lung, and now that he thought back, it all seemed like a dream.
“Well, it doesn’t look like there’s anything else today, so it’s time to go and pay a visit to Master Ye, and ask him about Grandma anyway.”
Originally, Ye Lu had wanted to wait for Ye Yan to finish this part of her busy schedule and go together, however, he really could not wait a bit.
He gave Elder Ye a call, and Elder Ye was really quick to agree.
However, Elder Ye did not receive him at his flat, but had Ye Luo go to his home, an antique villa of the Ye family.
“Ye Lu, are you still satisfied with the two small gifts from last time?”
Master Ye looked at Ye Lu and said with a smile.
Ye Luo nodded, however, he did not want to chat about these family matters, but asked straight to the point.
“Is my grandmother still alive? You don’t have to hide it from me, I’ve heard from Sister Yan.”
As a result, Elder Ye mused, he didn’t speak, thought for a moment, and then looked at Ye Lu and said.
“I’ve heard Yan’er talk about your situation, there are some things you don’t benefit from knowing now, but since you’ve come to ask me, I might as well talk to you about it.”
“Your grandmother is indeed still alive.”
These words made Ye Lu’s whole body tense up, because to him, his grandmother was the most important person in his life, he had not forgotten for a moment, the way she pedaled her car to stall pancakes and worked at home, if he could get her back, he would give everything, even his own life.
“So where is Grandma now?”
As a result, Master Ye shook his head and said.
“I don’t know, because your grandmother wasn’t originally from this world, and she wasn’t really my wife, so what you know is just the surface of things, and maybe what I know is too.”
“To put it simply, she was supposed to be here for you and Yan’er, and she once told me that when you turned eighteen, she would leave, and as to where she would go, I’m not quite sure.”
“However, I have also been loving her for so many years, so I also learned something else, and that is, your also parents are still alive.”
To this, Ye Lu basically had no reaction, because for him, his parents were nothing more than a name, or a concept, he had never met them, and it didn’t matter if they were, what mattered was his grandmother.
However, Elder Ye followed and said.
“If you can find your parents, you should be able to find your grandmother, because your grandmother actually went to look for your parents, and the other thing I want to tell you is that the grandmother you saw is not your grandmother’s real appearance, your real grandmother is much younger and prettier, how can I put it, she is the most beautiful and attractive woman I have ever seen. ”
Elder Ye’s words took Ye Lu by surprise as he suddenly thought of something.
“Eighteen years old, grandmother, missing, gla*ses, young, pretty, 36D, parents ……”
These fragments entwined together made Ye Lu suddenly have a guess that maybe it wasn’t a coincidence that he got the gla*ses, that the 36D woman that the barman was talking about might be the grandmother, and that she was the one who put most of the gla*ses there for herself, after which she left herself to go to her parents.
To be honest, he also felt that the idea was far-fetched, but he felt that maybe it was a possibility.
Following that, Elder Ye continued.
“Moreover, this matter is connected to the great clans in the capital, and even to the clans as well, the Lin family, the Ye family, the Dragon family and also the Jin family, all of these great clans might be connected to this matter.”
Speaking here, Elder Ye suddenly said with a serious face.
“The great clans are even more terrifying than your phenomenon, so you must not act rashly, and the clan world is even more unfathomable, and this matter is also related to ‘eternal life’, ‘becoming immortal’ and what ‘supreme treasure’ has something to do with it, the water is too deep, and all I know is just a few words from your grandmother, in short, until you are strong enough, it is best for you not to pursue this matter.”
“Many times Yan’er doesn’t think through things, so I don’t dare to talk to her about many things, I have always treated her like my own granddaughter, you must protect her, in addition, I want to remind you that the secular world is just the tip of the iceberg of the whole world, the real world is much bigger than you can imagine.”
Speaking here, Elder Ye suddenly sighed and said.
“I am just an old man who is dying, and I am also a marginal person in the family, so I am afraid I can’t help you too much, everything in the future can only depend on yourselves, if you encounter any difficulties in the future, just look for me, within my ability, I will definitely help you.”
This was something that Ye Luo had basically understood from Long Fei Xue, the real sons and daughters of the family in the open were instead the sons and daughters that the family did not value.
However, Ye Lu could feel that Elder Ye should still be hiding something, however, Elder Ye was right about one thing, his current cultivation level was still too low, there were some things that it was better not to know now, no matter what, at least knowing that his grandmother was still alive in this world, a stone in Ye Lu’s heart had landed.
All he had to do now was to work hard to improve himself and then find a way to find his grandmother.
So, Ye Luo said goodbye to Elder Ye and went to the Chinese herbal shop to buy some herbs, and then went to the mountain behind the school to refine pills.
Now he would soon be able to condense a fifth strand of spiritual energy, so even if he couldn’t use the “Ghostly Inferno” in his body, he could still make the “Regeneration Pill”, which was a better grade than the “Spring Return Pill”, which was claimed to be able to make a dying person live again.
The place Ye Lu chose was an abandoned air-raid shelter, and the cave was made of cement or something like that, which was very strong and well ventilated, so Ye Lu found a room with a ventilation hole and started to make it.
In fact, Ye Lu chose the ventilated cave not because he wanted to disperse the smoke from the flames, as the flames of this particular wood were not very large, but he mainly wanted to disperse the fragrance of the pills to avoid attracting other people over and affecting the refining.
After a holiday of refining pills, Ye Lu was now much more proficient in refining pills. Although it was his first time refining, he quickly made his first potion, and indeed the fragrance of the pills was overflowing, and the finished product rate was quite good.
The first time I saw it, I was able to get the first one.
*****
Miao Fengling was currently looking for herbs on the mountain, a task left to her by her new teacher, which was a bit difficult but she was still happy about it because this new teacher called Lin Ruyue was really good, at least much better than his father’s disciple who was on the record.
However, just at this moment, she suddenly smelt a fragrance of dan.
