Martial artists can never be ultimately insulted

The abdomen is filled with fluids and semi-liquid organs such as the intestines. When the abdomen is struck by a blunt fist, the force is evenly transmitted throughout the abdominal cavity under the action of Pascal's principle.

Even so, Yuan Chen's blow was too heavy, causing Chun Li to only bruise where she was hit, while the blood vessels in her intestines far from the point of impact were instantly torn by the pressure.

Only after the physical injury does the feedback come from the abdominal nerve plexus.

The blow hit her hard, and her vagus nerve was intensely stimulated. The excruciating pain was secondary; more importantly, her heart rate slowed down and her blood pressure dropped sharply in that instant. A feeling of suffocation and nausea surged into Chun-Li's head at the same time.

Chun-Li, who still had some strength left in her body, felt her mind go blank, and then she was sent flying backward, landing on the ground and fainting on the spot.

After delivering that blow, as his mind relaxed and his body withdrew from the highly tense state of battle, Yuan Chen also felt his whole body detach. His legs went weak and he knelt on one knee, his whole body gushing out a large amount of thick, sticky sweat.

Tong Ang arrived just as Yuan Chen struck Chun Li.

After confirming that Chun-Li had only suffered superficial injuries and no internal organ damage, and had only fainted due to the impact on her vagus nerve, Tong Ang breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you." Tong Ang looked at Yuan Chen with a complicated expression.

From Chun-Li's condition alone, Tong Ang could clearly tell that Yuan Chen had definitely deliberately controlled his strength in the end.

Otherwise, given Yuan Chen's physical attributes, if such concentrated force hadn't severely ruptured his liver, Tong Ang would have been thankful for his life.

Volume 1: 5. Lost

After confirming that Chun-Li was alright and had only fainted due to severe pain, Tong Ang arranged for her to recuperate at the Yuan Hanting Restaurant.

After that, Yuan left Yuan Chen in the guest room to take care of Chun Li, while he and Tong Ang went to discuss matters related to the Inner World and Shadow Luo.

He brought over a basin of water and wiped the dirt off Chunli's body. Then, Yuan Chen silently mobilized his life energy to nourish the damaged muscles.

Yuan Chen himself wasn't very clear about life energy. He only remembered that after he accidentally stumbled into the battle between Yuan and Hao Gui that night, he woke up naturally after a hearty meal provided by Yuan.

Even Yuan, a man of great knowledge and renowned as a legendary assassin, was greatly surprised by Yuan Chen's awakened ability.

But it was just surprise, not too much astonishment.

As a veteran in the assassination world, Yuan Xiang was well aware that various supernatural forces existed in this world—spiritual power, wave power, soul power, chaotic power, natural spirits…

Even the 'ki' cultivated by martial artists is itself a supernatural power.

In Yuan's view, the life energy that Yuan Chen awakened might be a kind of power that belongs only to Yuan Chen himself.

Then, Yuan Chen also lived and cultivated by Yuan's side.

Today's battle with Chun-Li... although it wasn't Yuan Chen's first battle, it was definitely the most serious and exhilarating one he'd ever fought!

Thinking this, Yuan Chen also looked at Chun Li lying on the bed.

Unlike the image of Chun-Li as a Chinese kung fu girl with two buns in her hair, Chun-Li still wears her hair in buns, but her clothes are completely different.

She wore a navy blue sleeveless turtleneck cropped top. The collar, placket, and the edges of the frog buttons were decorated with gold cloud patterns.

The high-neck design is neat and capable, and the sleeveless cut fully reveals the toned muscles in her arms.

His lower body was covered by a navy blue, tight-fitting training suit, somewhat resembling a superhero's battle suit, but without any unnecessary embellishments. It clung to his skin, highlighting the muscle definition and power of his legs.

nice!

Yuan Chen not only gritted his teeth.

Slender, rounded, solid and powerful, his explosive strength is as thick as a log. Even at a young age, his kicking force can reach 800 kilograms, and he can easily squeeze his once frail self to do squats!

Damn, those thighs... those muscles... they're so beautiful!

Yuan Chen could feel his fighting spirit surging!

but……

A mere cricket dares to so easily raise its flag and shake my reason, Yuan Chen?!

Yuan Chen raised his fist and struck the Demon Orb with great force. Under intense pain, Yuan Chen's face turned red and the veins on his forehead bulged, but he endured it and forcibly healed himself by channeling his life energy into the orb.

But just as it was healed, the Demon Orb raised its flag again.

Enraged, Yuan Chen laughed and threw another punch.

As a result, he became even more rebellious after recovering! Yuan Chen was so angry that he could only tie his legs with a belt.

Damn that demon pill, why does it have such a vivid imagination!

But... is it really as that saying goes?

Yuan Chen thought to himself—as the saying goes, even heroes can't resist the charms of a beautiful woman. Becoming a transmigrator and arriving in such a world must mean that he is an unparalleled hero, a peerless and domineering figure!

What kind of sadness can't be overcome? What kind of beauty can't be conquered?!

How could it possibly fail?!

I'm going to really challenge my weaknesses!

While pondering, Yuan Chen calmed down and looked at Chun Li again.

After a moment, Yuan Chen nodded calmly.

Aunties these days... are still quite naive.

Even his clothing style is the same as that in Street Fighter Junior.

Looking at Chunli, who was still so tender and delicate even in her sleep, Yuan Chen nodded thoughtfully.

As the ageless goddess in Street Fighter, Chun-Li's beauty in Street Fighter VI goes without saying.

However, Yuan Chen was clearly more concerned about Chun Li's skill than her age.

Just like her appearance, she is somewhat immature. Just by looking at her, Yuan Chen could tell that Chun Li's martial arts, in addition to Qigong, also incorporated techniques from Iron Wire Fist, Hung Gar, Bagua Palm, and other schools.

Moreover, you can clearly feel that he has some concerns during the battle... This is very different from the master in Street Fighter 6 who has mastered many techniques and is known as "flowing and smooth".

Besides these, there are many more impressions and skills associated with Chun-Li...

Thinking this, Yuan Chen shook his head after a brief silence, trying to shake the image of Jackie Chan out of his mind.

Damn brain! What's the point of having such a vivid imagination?!

Demons and monsters, get out of here! Demons and monsters, get out of here!

Finally free from that mental pollution, Yuan Chen looked at Chun Li, who was still unconscious. Since he had nothing better to do, he simply reached out his large, strong hand towards Chun Li.

He placed his hand on Chun-Li's abdomen, and through her tight-fitting clothes, a deep sense of astonishment welled up inside him.

As one of the core components for generating power in the human body, the importance of the waist and abdomen goes without saying.

Connecting the upper and lower body, the waist and abdomen are responsible for transmitting power in almost all movements.

Walking, running, jumping, lifting heavy objects—in any movement, the core muscles of the waist and abdomen will contract immediately, stabilizing the spine and pelvis and providing a solid fulcrum for the limbs to exert force.

Just like the piers of a bridge, if the piers are unstable, then no matter how sturdy the bridge deck is, it will be useless.

Even in the deep sleep after the fierce battle, Chun-Li's abdomen still had a clear outline.

Firm and elastic, even through clothing, the abs are still very clear and defined, showing vitality.

The muscle lines on the sides of the waist taper from the ribcage, outlining a smooth V-line that forms an angle with the hip bone, showcasing a graceful and delicate balance.

Those muscles are so firm and strong! They could crush my past self with ease!

But now, that's all!

As he thought about it, a hint of pride flashed in Yuan Chen's eyes.

Over the past three years, Yuan Chen has mostly been familiarizing himself with and mastering various ways to use life energy—life cooking is one of them.

Another aspect is that after each day's practice, he uses his life energy to relieve muscle fatigue and injuries. This accelerated healing process also makes the muscles thicker and stronger during recovery. This is the foundation for Yuan Chen's diligent practice day and night without rest!

And the process was incredibly comfortable!

Sure enough, with the slow infusion of life energy, even while in a coma, Chun-Li still felt as if her lower body was soaking in warm water.

The stagnation caused by the punches was quickly dispelled by the revitalized body. Even the organs in her lower abdomen felt a few warm currents along with this subtle sense of comfort, causing Chun-Li, who was unconscious, to instinctively let out a soft moan.

While in a deep sleep, Chunli felt as if she had suddenly been immersed in warm water, her body feeling warm and comfortable, starting from her lower abdomen.

But soon, her childhood memories made Chun-Li realize what this warm current might be.

As soon as Chunli opened her eyes, she saw Yuan Chen's hands pressing against her lower abdomen.

This made Chun-Li subconsciously want to sit up, but as soon as she made the movement, she felt a tug on her abdominal muscles, and a strong cramping pain returned. The stimulation made Chun-Li's face contort and she froze on the bed.

Seeing this, Yuan Chen said, "Bear with it! There's still some stagnation here that hasn't cleared up. If you can bear it, just bear with it for now."

Having finished the battle, Yuan Chen began to recharge his Qi and calm his speech.

But to Chun-Li, it still sounded strange...

Even so, Chun-Li could sense that Yuan-Chen was trying his best to control himself, so she nodded repeatedly, but it seemed that he had no extra energy to speak.

Yuan Chen was not surprised by Chun Li's current immaturity and fragility.

Martial artists are human beings, not monsters—and certainly not like me, a tough guy who is born to become an absolute powerhouse!

When a person is concentrating, their body secretes a large amount of hormones, which dramatically reduces the sensation of pain.

After the battle ends, just like in the "time stop" series, the suppressed and compressed pain will suddenly erupt, and it is common for people to faint from the pain in an instant.

As she cooperated and accepted Yuan Chen's soothing touch, the muscles in her lower abdomen that were pulling against each other were gradually touched and softened.

Soon, Chun-Li instinctively grabbed Yuan Chen's strong arm, which was pressed against her muscles. With a violent tremor, a fine sweat visibly broke out on Chun-Li's body. Then her whole expression relaxed, as if she had lost her soul.

It's a little refreshing.

Volume 1: 6. Ultimate Insult or Just Too Much?

Chunli trembled for a while, clinging to Yuan Chen's arm that was pressed against her lower abdomen. It wasn't until much later that she came to her senses from the soreness.

Feeling the warm sensation in her lower abdomen, Chun-Li's eyes revealed a blushing joy, and she then said breathlessly, her face flushed:

"This feeling... is a little different. Whew, I feel like I'm getting addicted!"

Upon hearing Chunli's words, Yuan Chen's face revealed a hint of pride, and he immediately raised his head and said:

"Ha, I'm a physiotherapy expert! Just tell me what you need!"

"Oh, you sound very confident~"

Perhaps it was because of Yuan Chen's confidence and outgoing nature, or perhaps it was because of his grandfather's influence, or perhaps it was because of the life energy he was receiving, but Chun Li unconsciously grew closer to Yuan Chen and jokingly said:

"Don't get addicted, or your sister won't be able to live without you!"

"Don't worry, there won't be any problems. Life energy is something I've been learning about ever since I awakened." Hearing this, Yuan Chen opened his eyes, crossed his arms, and said confidently:

"There's absolutely no need to worry about any negative effects, because the essence of this pleasant feeling is the release of endorphins from the brain when the body senses muscle damage, along with the accompanying muscle fatigue and tingling sensation."

The former relieves pain, while the latter can cross the blood-brain barrier to enter the brain, stimulating the reward center and producing a feeling of euphoria similar to a runner's orgasm, reducing anxiety and discomfort.

"Life energy, on the other hand, can stimulate the secretion of these hormones and enhance bodily awareness while directly repairing physical damage."

"Hey, hey, there's no need to explain so seriously..."

Seeing Yuan Chen's earnest explanation, Chun Li waved her hand, then smiled and patted her chest, saying:

“When I was little, I would practice with Grandpa Yuan when my father was away. You are Grandpa Yuan’s successor, so you are my family. How could I doubt you!”

Chun-Li originally just wanted to show off her close relationship with Yuan-Chen, but after Chun-Li finished speaking, she noticed that Yuan-Chen's face darkened and turned as black as ink in an instant.

Seeing this, Chun-Li blinked and then asked, "What's wrong? Is something wrong?"

After a moment of silence, Yuan Chen calmly said, "I have not inherited any mourning or taboo practices."

"Huh?!" Upon hearing this, Chun-Li was also taken aback, and then said with a look of surprise:

"No inheritance? Then what about that punch you threw when we sparred just now? Although it was a little different from Grandpa Yuan's, it should have been the 'Sorrow Form,' right?"

Chun-Li once trained in martial arts under Gen, and even has a skill called "Gen's Assassination Kick" in Street Fighter 6. Although she and Gen are not grandfather and granddaughter, their relationship is closer than that of grandfather and granddaughter.

Even after they met in the Demon World, he specially taught Gen his lifelong ultimate technique to break Akuma's 'Shadow of Sudden Hell Kill', which shows the depth of their relationship.

It was precisely because of this relationship that Chun-Li was able to see that Yuan Chen's last punch clearly carried the 'Mou' from the Sangliu style of Yuan Sangji's Assassination Fist—an absolute focus on the ultimate nothingness in an instant.

Sensing Chunli's surprise, Yuanchen expressed his understanding.

Street Fighter is, after all, a game IP from Capcom. The character “牟” (pronounced mù, Japanese pronunciation �む) is similar to “無” in Japanese in both pronunciation and concept, meaning “nothingness”.

While Yuan's "Grief Assassination Fist" has two distinct styles, each forms its own system.
