I can only beat noobs.

Chapter 10 Huo Qianqian

"I'm sorry, junior brother, I couldn't help you this time."

In a secluded courtyard within the Huo residence, Zhang Mingyu was drinking and chatting with Wen Zehao.

Wen Zehao hurriedly said, "What are you saying? I am already extremely grateful for your help, senior brother. I just didn't expect that guy to have some strength."

“After all, you’ve practiced for so many years.” Zhang Mingyu toasted him and said, “I don’t think I can help with this. You know, I already offended my junior sister once, and she hasn’t spoken to me for six months. I dare not offend her again.”

Wen Zehao's smile froze, and he could only force a smile and say, "I'm so sorry to have troubled you, Senior Brother."

The two drank a few more glasses of wine, and Wen Zehao made an excuse to leave.

Emerging from the courtyard, his face was somewhat gloomy. He had initially thought the man was insignificant and could be easily dealt with. But unexpectedly…

Instead of getting rid of the person, they ended up losing a favor for nothing.

"Hmph, I'll let you run wild for a while longer."

Wen Zehao clenched his fist.

Tomorrow, there is a very important shipment at home that cannot be lost; he must personally escort it. He must leave Qingfeng City first thing tomorrow morning.

Before leaving, he planned to see his junior sister.

But they were turned away.

Wen Zehao was a little confused. They had clearly made up that morning, even holding hands. Why was he being so temperamental now?

On second thought, perhaps she was just shy.

So he wrote a letter, had a maid give it to his junior sister, and then left the Huo residence.

This round trip will take a month, just in time for my junior sister's sixteenth birthday.

Then we can start discussing his marriage to his junior sister.

When Wen Zehao left, his heart was burning with excitement.

……

"he's gone?"

In the courtyard, Huo Qianqian sat on a swing with her feet dangling in mid-air, the swing swaying back and forth, not even glancing at the letter handed to her by the maid.

"The Seventh Young Master said that this trip will last for a month, and he will return before Miss's birthday."

Whether he comes back or not is none of my business.

Huo Qianqian was not happy.

The maid whispered, "Didn't the master say that he would arrange your marriage after you come of age, Miss?"

Huo Qianqian said angrily, "If he wants to marry, let him marry himself. I'm not marrying."

"what?"

The maid didn't know why she suddenly lost her temper again.

Huo Qianqian didn't know what was wrong with her. She knew that Wen Zehao wanted to marry her, and her grandfather also agreed to the marriage.

Speaking of Wen Zehao, he is quite handsome, comes from a good family, and is exceptionally talented. Among the younger generation in Qingfeng City, he is quite outstanding.

She was neither very satisfied nor very dissatisfied.

Anyway, women always have to get married.

However, Wen Zehao's recent performance has disappointed her.

He showed a narrow-minded side.

They weren't even married yet, and just because she pleaded with her grandfather on behalf of a complete stranger, he stormed over and berated her.

If they got married, what would happen?

For the past two weeks, he has been begging for her forgiveness by behaving in a humble and subservient manner.

As soon as she forgave him that morning, he immediately went to cause trouble for Chen Ming.

Huo Qianqian's heart sank upon hearing the news. Was this the man she was about to marry?
Is it true that after marriage, she can't even talk to other men?

The more she thought about it, the more agitated she became, and suddenly a nameless rage arose within her: It's all that Chen Ming's fault!
If it weren't for him, where would all these troubles come from?

……

…………

The next morning, at nine o'clock.

Chen Ming arrived at the Huo residence on time. As soon as he entered, he was stopped by a maid. "Young Master Chen, my young lady requests your presence." Young lady?

Huo Qianqian?
Chen Ming thought for a moment and said, "I was just worried that I wouldn't have a chance to thank Miss Huo in person. Please lead the way, young lady."

He was quite curious as to why Huo Qianqian wanted to see him.
Should she explain herself to her lover?

Huo Qianqian is Huo Chengkun's only relative; her parents are deceased, and she lives with her grandfather. It's easy to imagine how much Huo Chengkun dotes on her.

If she gives the word, Chen Ming will have to leave, so there's no way to avoid it; he has no choice but to go and see her.

The maid led him all the way to the backyard.

This was Chen Ming's first time entering the backyard of the Huo family mansion. This was where Huo Chengkun and his granddaughter lived, and only his personal disciples were allowed to enter. No one else was permitted to set foot here.

The two walked further and further into the remote area.

Is Huo Qianqian allowed to live in a place like this?

Chen Ming couldn't help but begin to suspect that this maid was sent by Wen Zehao to frame him...

"You're Chen Ming?"

A delicate voice came from the side. He turned his head and saw a girl in a red outfit standing in front of the moon gate. She had fair skin, a sweet face, and a tall figure. She was indeed a beautiful girl.

Unfortunately, her face revealed a hint of shrewishness, which ruined that beauty.

Chen Ming wasn't interested in capricious women. He had seen too many spoiled little fairies on Earth, and no matter how beautiful a woman with a similar temperament was, he felt nothing for her.

Huo Qianqian snorted, "She's not that good-looking."

Chen Ming bowed respectfully, "Greetings, Miss Huo."

Huo Qianqian stared at him, "I heard you're a sparring partner for the disciples who come here to learn martial arts, so let me see how good you are."

After saying that, without giving him any time to react, she punched him in the face.

That punch was so fast and forceful; if it had landed, it would have broken his nose.

"Are you serious?"

Chen Ming didn't dare to be negligent and dodged in front of her, "Miss Huo..."

"watch out."

Having gained the upper hand, Huo Qianqian showed no mercy and swept her foot away again, giving him no chance to speak.

The strength she displayed was actually superior to Qi Jun's!
Chen Ming felt unprecedented pressure and dared not be distracted, so he focused all his attention on dealing with the situation.

In a short time, the two moved with lightning speed, exchanging seven or eight moves.

Huo Qianqian shouted sharply, "All you can do is dodge? Fight back!"

Chen Ming remained silent, only dodging and looking for an opportunity.

"This must be the Four Symbols Fist, which is indeed more profound than the Three Talents Fist. Fortunately, she has little combat experience, and her moves are too stiff. There is still a chance."

“Her Iron Horse Stance is at least at the fourth level. Her strength is far superior to mine, so I can’t fight her head-on.”

His mind raced. He could only rely on his extensive combat experience to outmaneuver her.

Another dozen or so moves passed.

Huo Qianqian's moves became increasingly fluid, and in such battles, she quickly grasped the correct way to use the moves.

This cannot go on.

Chen Ming felt the pressure mounting, and suddenly, in a moment of desperation, he kicked a pebble and lost his balance.

Seeing her chance, Huo Qianqian's eyes lit up with joy, and she lunged forward with both hands.

Unexpectedly, as Chen Ming fell backward, he used a strange move, kicking out with lightning speed. It struck her thigh squarely. She cried out in pain and fell to the ground.

"you--"

Huo Qianqian's eyes widened, quickly filling with tears—a mixture of grievance, anger, and disbelief...

Uh……

Chen Ming then realized that this was the Huo family's little princess, and he had actually hit her.

Just as he was about to apologize, Huo Qianqian got up and ran away, limping slightly, clearly indicating that the kick she had just given was quite forceful.

You have defeated a level 8 enemy and gained 30 experience points.
